Days of Reckoning

I REMEMBER SAUDI 89' (THE SECOND HALF)

Gone are the days when an intentional football match involving Nigeria would dry up the streets, with most people at home and glued to their TV sets. One of such games was during the Saudi 89' World Cup championship. Famously called,  THE MIRACLE OF DAMMAN- We were playing against USSR.

Never mind, I won't bore you with the details. But by the end of the first half, we were practically down and out. With a 4-goal deficit to cope with, Most people switched off their sets. But in the second half we began to hear some shouts. And it appeared to increase with every shout. Before we knew it, the game turned around, and Nigeria won. Prior to this time, there was no record of such a feat in our history.

Here we are at the second half of 2016. There's no telling that Nigeria and indeed most Nigerians have been hit hard, especially by the fast dwindling economy. Most folks have never had it this tough. And there seems to be little or no hope for a better 2016.

But I bring you a word this morning. Things are turning around for good. You may have groaned and cried in the first half, but you are about to shout for Joy. We serve a God of the turn around. The one who can declare "BY HIS TIME TOMORROW....",

Nothing takes him by surprise. And he is still in charge. It doesn't matter how much deficit you have to cope with, He is able to turn things around. You too can experience the "miracle of DAMMAN"-, sorry, MIRACLE OF YOUR LIFE beginning from today.

Have faith in God. Give him thanks for the first half. But you say, what for? At least for the fact that you are alive to read this post. It only shows he's got you in mind. Praise Him. Worship him. Look beyond the present condition. And like David, who was distresses and discouraged, Arise from the ashes of despair, for in this second half, you shall PURSUE, OVERTAKE, and without fail, RECOVER ALL, in Jesus' name.
Amen.

Rejoice ! For I see you bouncing back with great power and great grace.

Happy new month.

Blinded Devotion.........

Have you ever wondered what it is that makes people tick?  What moves people to do the things they do?  What causes people to react in the many ways they do?</strong></em> There can be no leaders without some form of followers. They( most leaders), with their smooth and fair speech, beguile the hearts of the innocent.  Because the leaders are blind, those who follow after them likewise are blind.  Their sense of assurance is a false sense of assurance.  They think they have peace when in reality they are like Judah of old crying, “Peace, peace; when there is no peace” (Jeremiah 6:14).  Many of our own congregations are like the churches at Sardis who have a reputation that lives but are dead (Revelation 3:1) and at Laodicea who say, “I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;” but are really “wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked” (Revelation 3:17).   The blind...

Worthy Sacrifice…

How much of our sacrifice will God consider worthy? How much of our praises, worships, thanksgiving, will God consider as worthy enough? Psalms 51:17 (KJV)   says “ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. As I was observing my siesta after I returned from service, I don’t know if I was dreaming but all I kept hearing was “ worthy sacrifice, worthy sacrifice”.   I quickly woke up and knew God wanted me to write on this topic. I started by asking myself what kind of sacrifice will I offer to the Lord and it will be considered a worthy sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice will you offer to God and it will be considered a worthy sacrifice? Abraham is the father of many nations, loved and blessed by God. Today we are proud to say we are the sons of Abraham. We even have a popular song we sing in Nigeria “ Father Abraham has many sons, many sons have father Abraham, I am one of them and so are you, ...
