#Are will still blaming the Church?

Got several messages, comments and the likes from people who still have this belief that the Church should cease from praying and "diversify" into providing roads, stable electricity, good health care, etc

Well, for starters, the Church of

Christ cannot be held responsible for the failure of Government to provide basic, very basic amenities. Those ruling NIGERIA, from the federal level to the LG level, were either voted in or imposed on us by other means possible to do these things.

Elected officials the world over, have a minimum standard vis-a-vis citizen's expectations.

Therefore, the church cannot be held responsible for government's ineptitude.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for poor educational facilities, poor electricity, poor

roads, poor health care, poorly equipped Hospitals and dispensaries.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for the state of insecurity.

Many are quick to say, "with all our prayers, wat has changed?" Well, will all our prayers, God has shown so much mercy to this

country. It is our prayers and the mercies of God still upholding us inspite of how unpalatable the situation is.

We are quick to say, there are countries the world over doing well, who are not as prayerful as we are, yes, countries like China, Singapore, etc. But, we forget to

Your Excellency Sir.
Red flag 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

A blessed morning to you.

This is a clarion call to help curb or infact eradicate the sale of strong alcoholic drinks at the Asero Stadium / Trailer park

It's been over a year some of us last

went to that Asero Stadium for some Prayer Walk. We stopped because of the recklessness of the trailer drivers within the stadium. This is further exercebated by the daily consumption of Alcoholic drinks as early as 7am at different shops within the premises.

Was there again this morning for a personal Prayer Walk, hoping things would have been better after a year's absence, alas, there are even more shops selling sachet alcoholic drinks. I had to discretely take a shot of one of the shops.

I once had a drunk trailer driver

blabbing under the influence of these strong drinks, that when he is high on "DOUBLE SIM", (Indian hemp soaked in ogogoro overnight ), human being look like cockroaches, hence they don't feel anything crushing them.

It has become a menace. I do not know if there is a law

banning the sale of strong drinks at garages, if there is none, I would like to crave your Indulgence in making it happen sir.

I used to lead a group of 30-40 people every 2nd Saturday of the month on a Prayer Walk within the same premises where the Stadium is, but, had to stop

A SHORT EXHORTATION

They wanted to make sure He remained dead, but...

Matthew 27:63 MSG
They said, "Sir, we just remembered that that liar announced while he was still alive, 'After three days I will be raised.'

Matthew 27:64 MSG
We've got to get that tomb sealed until the

third day. There's a good chance his disciples will come and steal the corpse and then go around saying, 'He's risen from the dead.' Then we'll be worse off than before, the final deceit surpassing the first."

Matthew 27:65 MSG
Pilate told them, "You will have a guard. Go ahead and secure it the best you can."

Matthew 27:66 MSG
So they went out and secured the tomb, sealing the stone and posting guards.

Men were assigned to the tomb Jesus was buried. They were not mere men...

they were trained soldiers. They wanted to make sure He remained dead.

His adversaries had so much hatred for him, yet, they feared every word He spoke about resurrecting again on the third day.

Even if He arose, He would not be able to get out of the tomb, they said to

themselves, but, they were soooo wrong. His purpose must be accomplished.

I don't know what or who has been assigned to keep you down.

Keep you down from achieving your purpose.

Jesus broke through. You will break through that hindrance.

They could not keep Jesus from coming

The Children of Ephraim got dressed for battle.
They got dressed, probably to appear impressive to unlookers.
They had all they needed to fight & take territories, but, they bailed out at d last minute...at d critical time.

Psalms 78:9 MSG says;
d Ephraimites, armed to d teeth,

ran off when d battle began.
Hmmmmm, what a sad note.

Many 2day, appear dressed up for battles.
Some of us appear dressed up to take territories.
We look as good as warriors.
We speak in tongues, pray d loudest at prayer meetings, attend church d most, yet, lack d real substance

There is a job God has given each of us to do, but, ironically, we focus on the fringe benefits of the kingdom.

There are souls to win, territories to conquer, thrones to dethrone, altars to pull down etc.

Jeremiah 1:10 MSG (spells out our job in clear terms.)👇🏼
See what I've done? I've given you a JOB to do among nations & governments-a red-letter day! Your job is to pull up and tear down, take apart & demolish, & then start over, building and planting." Stand Up & Say Your Piece

What have you done with the job or task God gave you?

It's not just about kingdom benefits.
There is a good fight of faith out there.

We need to get off the milk diet and eat meat like warriors... we cannot do stuffs if we are passive about the things of God..

Jesus, this is above your "Pay grade"

Luke 8:49b KJV
"...Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master."

I wouldn't blame them for this piece of advice to those who were troubling the Master. Afterall, it was obvious to all, the child was dead

1. They probably didn't really

""KNOW" Jesus.
2. They probably knew or heard He healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, healed one or two crippled folks, and the best they probably heard of Jesus was that, when He showed up at Peter's workplace, He did what could be termed as an exceptional miracle. Well,

Elijah did similar stuffs anyways, they said.
3. The knew Jesus to be a gentle and easy going and probably did not show any sign of someone that could raise the dead, someone in the semblance of Elijah who called down fire or Elisha who was a bit temperamental and performed some

very powerful miracles.
4. Jesus? Oh pleaseeeeee. Raising a child is above His "pay grade" He doesn't have the pedigree or looks, they said.

Nkw, imagine Jesus coming in and making them look stupid by saying in V52

Luke 8:52 MSG
Everyone was crying and carrying on over her.

Jesus said, "Don't cry. She didn't die; she's sleeping."

Like seriously?
Jesus, You must really have some nerve coming in here and telling us we dint know the difference between a chil sleeping & a child that is stone cold dead.

Luke 8:53 MSG
They laughed at him. They knew she

"Living on Lori Iro"

Was studying a few verses in the book of 1Sam. Chapter 4, and I am struck by a few occurrences which are still common in today's world, even as we continually live on self denial. The Lori Iro kind of thing. Nothing thrives

when we live in self denial. There is no fresh start without doing the needful.

Let's take a look at;
1 Samuel 4:2 MSG
The Philistines marched out to meet Israel, the fighting spread, and Israel was badly beaten - about 4,000 soldiers left dead on the field.
1 Samuel 4:3 When

the troops returned to camp, Israel's elders said, "Why has God given us such a beating today by the Philistines? Let's go to Shiloh and get the Chest of God's Covenant. It will accompany us and save us from the grip of our enemies."

The catch here for me is this;

The elders

were quick to blame God for the overwhelming defeat and shame at the hands of the "godless" philistines, and as if that was not enough, they tried to "USE" God, like, He, God, was in their pockets, ready to be used at all times and for whatever purpose. It did not matter if God

was "busy, asleep, playing etc-(just used those catch phrases literally. We know God cannot be caught in any of those)

The point here is that, defeat started for them early, even before the battle.

God had expressed His anger against the prophet over israel (Eli) and his 2
