Eze 34:15 MSG
"'Therefore, God, the Master, says: *I myself am stepping in* & making things right.

❤️I love that part, "I myself, am stepping in."

👉🏼When God says, He Himself is stepping in, then, something never before seen is about to happen

#The, God No Go Shame Us Slang"

I have often heard this in so many instances, "God No Go Shame Us..."

First thing first, God shames no one, and has never shamed anyone.

The only fellows or gang God ever public shamed was satan and his goons

Colossians 2v15 NIV
And having

disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.e (Col 2:15|NIV-)

Colossians 2:15 MSG
He stripped all the spiritual tyrants in the universe of their sham authority at the Cross and marched them naked through the streets

Colossians 2:15 AMP
[God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross].

It is not in God to shame anyone, rather, poor decisions, poor actions, poor

choices, sin, disobedience, bad association, man's wickedness towards another etc, are some of the stuffs that brings shame.

Sin, however, is the major culprit for a christian. While poor choices, decisions or actions could bring shame, they may not be categorized under sin.

These may have occurred, due to lack of proper or poor information etc

Now, back to the major culprit, SIN

James 1:15 MSG
"Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death."

Brethren, SIN GROWS. It starts with lustful

#It's appearing 2023 is the most "pressing need" now amongst politicans.

While we demand for better & best from Government, let us not forget 2023 is just "FEW WEEKS AWAY.."

PDP&APC, daily in the news... PLOTTING & PLANNING. Now, I ask, where are the other political parties

that "SUDDENLY" showed up in 2019?

What are their strategies?
Where are the youths in all these?
Where are those clamouring for a better Nigeria or are we going to pour New Wine in Old Wine Skins?

Are these silent political parties going to suddenly emerge again in November of 2022 to get grants from Government and then go back into oblivion?

It's beginning to look like we are walking the same ropes of 2019 elections, making the same errors or believing the unbelievable

about these politicans being foolish...

Time,. ofcourse, will tell who is wise and who is not.

"Siddon look" is no longer fashionable, if we want a REAL CHANGE.

We must start now and indeed start now for real of we are to make any meaningful impact, come 2023.

We must not

allow these current crop of politicans make us look unwise again in 2023.

The #EndSARS protest, was indeed an eye opener that when we stand together as a formidable team, we will reach out goal.

Are you FED-UP? 2

🔰WORD4TODAY🔰
Acts 16:16 MSG
One day, on our way to the place of prayer, a slave girl ran into us. She was a psychic &, with her fortunetelling, made a lot of money for the people who owned her.

Acts 16:17She started following Paul around, calling everyone's

attention to us by yelling out, "These men are working for the Most High God. They're laying out the road of salvation for you!"

*Acts 16:18*
*She did this for a number of days until Paul, finally fed up with her, turned and commanded the spirit that possessed her, "Out* !

In the name of Jesus Christ, get out of her!" And it was gone, just like that.

👉🏼Sometimes, undue familiarity or sentiments can be our bane.
👇🏼
We hold on to what we should be rid off.
👇🏼
We associate with people we should disassociate from.

👉🏼Abram had this problem and it is still with us to this day.

👉🏼It wasn't until after Abram cut off from Lot, that God spoke to him.

*Genesis 13:14 KJV*
And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes...

*For starters, "Lot" means a veil or a covering*
👇🏼
Now, how can anyone make progress with a heavy " *covering* " upon him or her?
👇🏼
It takes a level of discernment not to allow sentiments get in the way of our walk with God.

*Psalms 1v1 outs it Aptly.* 👇🏼

Kindly RT

God had a private discussion with him (Samuel) about this unknown young man (Saul)

IN;

1 Samuel 9:15 MSG
The very day before, God had confided in Samuel

1 Samuel 9:16 MSG
"This time tomorrow, I'm sending a man from the land of Benjamin to meet you. You're to anoint him as

prince over my people Israel.

SAMUEL was already waiting for Saul on the APPOINTED DAY, which was the next day. He positioned himself at a strategic position.

1 Samuel 9:17 MSG

You are more than what "men" can see or would ever see..

This is a SHORT EXHORTATION

Let me start with this Mantra from Guinness Nigeria Ltd.

They have this brand of stout, and at the end of the advert, I usually hear these words..."You are made for more..."

2.
Yes, we are all indeed made for more, but, sadly, many never attain unto what God has called them to be, either through spiritual laziness, ignorance, nonchalance etc.

Many have allowed their background keep their "backs" perpetually on the ground. In the beginning,

3.
it was not meant to be so.

You see, You are more than what "men" can see or would ever see. You are even more than what you see. There is always more.

While Pastoring at the RCCG many years ago, I heard these words by the General Overseer, Pst. E.A. Adeboye, over a zillion

4.
times.. "I have not even scratched the surface..".

Each time he reached what we all considered to be a major milestone, he would be quick to tell us, "I have not even started".

I recall the inconceivable idea of gathering over
6m people at lekki '98 Holy Ghost service.

5.
It was crazy at the beginning and many were full of unbelief at the time, but, the rest, they say is history. CNN even confirmed we were over 6m that gathered at lekki.
Fast forward to when the RCCG built the largest camp ground auditorium in the world, measuring 3km by 3km,

Results of Secret Sin.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, loved practical jokes.
Once he sent a telegram to each of 12 friends.

All were men of great virtue and respected in society.
The telegram said, "Flee at once, your secret is discovered!"

Within 24 hours, the story goes, all twelve had left  the country!
There may be some playful exaggeration here, but the
point is usually true that many people, including
Christians, are not what they seem to be.

James 1:15 "Then after our desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death."

SIN GROWS.
Sin always takes you further than you wanted to go.
Sin Cost you more than you want to pay,
Sin keep you longer than you want to stay.

In a conservative southern church (name withheld) , the pastor's wife found pornography on her husband's computer. After confronting him with the evidence, he admitted downloading d images off d internet, even using d computer in his study which was located in d church itself. .

In another bible-believing church not far from my home, a Christian businessman sought investment capital from other Christian individuals & businesses. He promised to invest d money in new Christian enterprises & promised a high rate of return on their money.  Alas, however,

A LONG EXHORTATION

THEME - What if...

Woke up this morning with a puzzling question in my spirit. Dint pay much attention to it, but, as I got out of bed to begin my morning & daily drill of 60mins-90mins of Thanksgiving, that question again interrupted my thoughts 💬.

2.
The question was just packaged in two words....WHAT IF?

Before I could process the thoughts, a barrage of other questions began to roll in, and then, I knew I had to UP my game in my daily Thanksgiving drill.

You see, I do this Thanksgiving "drill" every morning before I

3.
progress to praying in the spirit and then in my understanding and with relevant bible passages. (Thanksgiving is key to my relationship with God, because, I Know this for sure...THE UNGRATEFUL CARRIES A MARK OF RESENTMENT)

NOW;

4.
What if you woke up this morning and you began to "knock" on the gates of heaven, and as you did, an angel appeared and told you, "hey, sorry bro/sis, God is still resting. He had a busy day yesterday, and cannot attend to anyone until 4pm...")

5.
What if you knocked on heaven's gate and was denied access because, the accuser of the brethren just used his reggae to spoil your blues the previous night

What if you needed to pour out libations before seeing God?

Isaiah 51:22 MSG
Your Master, your God, has something to say, your God has taken up his people's case...

YOU NEED TO HEAR WHAT GID HAS TO SAY CONCERNING YOU TONIGHT.

Have you prayed at least 5mins for NIGERIA today?
It's the least we can all do.

Psalms 83:17 MSG
Bring them to the end of their rope, and leave them there dangling, helpless.

Wickedness will no longer reign in NIGERIA.

And to all perpetuating and sponsoring bloodshed, stealing

from our common wealth, Father, bring them to the end of their ropes.

Break the pride of their power Lord.

Leviticus 26:19-21 KJV
And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:

#Let their entire strength be continually

spent in vain.

[20] And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits. .

#With your help, leaders will rule well.

Prov 8:15 MSG
With my help, leaders rule, & lawmakers legislate fairly;
