An open letter to the Motherland 🇳🇬

Proverbs  14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

When right values and standards are in place,progress is inevitable. A community that breeds selfishness thrives on each living for himself which has never been in God's agenda for the purpose of  man, and when purpose is defeated, abuse and misuse is clearly inevitable. The scripture above says "Righteousness exalts a nation...", how true this is, what does He mean by 'Righteousness' in this context, 'Righteousness' here means right standards, right values, right principles. A nation can never grow on wrong principles, no matter the amount of prayer prayed for a nation, without the right standards, stagnancy is certain.

In light of the celebration of Nigeria's Independence day, the message to everyone is crystal clear, each man must live a selfless life , give no room to selfishness. Are you a Policeman, why don't you respect the core of your profession by protecting the citizens from criminals rather than harming the same citizens you're to protect. Are you a politician? Refrain from telling lies to the people to gain power, a nation you destroy will definitely have a repercussion on your generation. Are you a worker? Do your work without eye service, refrain from inflating figures just to your advantage,treat people nicely, don't be a worker who is power-drunk because you hold a reputable position. Are you one who owes those who work for you?You shouldn't have people work for you, and you owe them intentionally, oh no, you're definitely one of the problems of Nigeria. Nigeria will only get better when Nigerians get better. Nigeria is what Nigerians make of it. Happy Independence Day Nigeria!!!🇳🇬 God loves you and wants you to grow.

  Proverbs  16:3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Most people tell others about their plans first even before they remember to tell God". It's so true, I've found out most times people have opinions, but God never has an opinion, God has direction. People have opinions, God has direction. While speaking with a friend yesterday, she recalled how some people had tried to talk her down/out from doing something, and I felt well, people always have opinions, and like David Ologbonori, a life-coach posited, " Opinions are cheap, they are everywhere, and they can be wrong". While I thought about the fact that sometimes people tell others about their plans before God, I thought to myself "why should a man inform others about what he wants to do even before the waymaker Himself?"😏. This doesn't mean you can't talk to "destiny-helpers", or " dreams investors ", but it has to do with who you give p...

Taking the Virtual edge

Psalms  133:1 "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" 133:2 "It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;" The beauty of Christianity is in fellowship. Well, due to certain 'developments' around the globe, there's been restrictions on public gatherings, however, this should never put an embargo on fellowshipping with one another as Christians. I've often thought to myself, the internet came at the very right time, the internet is for the advantage of believers. Now, with the internet, we can reach much more people with the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. Some people, otherwise who wouldn't have come to Church physically might most definitely stumble on a Christian event online and then believe in Jesus. I heard of a lady who didn't go to Church because she was of a different religion and being afr...
