Diary of a Corper 18

21st May- 17th Day on Camp

Few days to the end of camp(...Camp ends on monday) and everyone is happy and relaxed. The soldiers are no longer strict like they used to be.

Morning parade was very light and i was back in my room before 7am to rest before going back for breakfast. After the morning lectures, the marching competition started and it was a glorious ceremony. Every eye were on them. They moved so swiftly and uniformely typifying one of the characteristics of the army of the Lord.

Joel 2:7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:

My platoon(...winner according to most corpers) took the second position.

God has an army on earth right now. In the scriptures, only 3 sets of people were described as the army of the Lord: Gideon's Army-Judges 7, Joel's Army-Joel 2 and Ezekiel's Army-Ezekiel 37.

They have started giving us our first allowance and a lot of people are bent on drinking alcohol with it. Well, for me, it is the first money i will 'work' for. I see it as my first salary and so without opening the envelope, i dropped it as a seed in NCCF.

2 Corinthians 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

I believe God to see me through the month.

After the contest, i slept for about 3 hours. NCCF drama night was really awesome; i kept on seeing a burning bush in my heart.

Cooking competition, Miss NYSC and Mr. Macho held in the evening, but i didn't attend(...things like that don't fascinate me).

I ate yam and potato throughout today(...God help me). Tomorrow's activity is still yet to be known, but i believe parade should stop now since the competition has taken place.

Oranmiyan (Part 3: Origin of Yoruba)

Our journey will begin by identifying who the Yoruba people are. From the stories and relics of the children of the tribe, it is obvious that the projenitors of the tribe were deeply rooted in sorcery. Especially those who constitute the royal families. Their blood lines is soaked in idolatry, divination and sorcery. They know how to access principalities and powers and learn their worship modes. There are many stories about the origin of the Yoruba race. The Yoruba race has two major stories about their origin. One is supernatural. The other is natural The supernatural or divine one said that the supreme being, God, sent a god- Obatala to come and create the earth, but he got drunk and God had to send another god- Oduduwa. This is what some people hold. This school of thought has several loopholes chief of which is that Oduduwa entered Ile Ife in 11AD, but Ife Arts, according to carbon dating goes way back as 500BC which means that there was life in Ile Ife before Oduduwa came in.

Oranmiyan (Part 4: Lamurudu vs Oduduwa)

After being forced out of his land, Lamurudu settled in Egypt for some time where he deepened his knowledge in sorcery. He learned several patterns of rituals which still exists in some parts of Ijebu today. At that time, the Egyptians have developed so well in the worship of their gods who were originally men. The concept of gods begins with a man encountering a demonic prince who is looking for obeisance from men. These princes have the same goal as Lucifer. Once they begin to get attention from a man, the man begins to take up their (dark) nature because it is a law in the spirit realm that whatever you behold, you become. The consecration of these men to the worship of the princes led to the reproduction of the abilities and characteristics of the prince in the man, so the man becomes great among other men. Most of these men takes up the name of the prince that they worship such that when the man dies, you can keep calling his name and the prince responds to your request thereby es

Oranmiyan (Part 5: The gods of Egypt)

During the sojourn of Lamurudu in Egypt, what was going on in Egypt at that time was similar to what happened in Genesis 6:1-2 where demonic entities found a way to reproduce themselves in women to establish a race of beings that were not fully humans. These creatures were very big that they were called Giants. They had 6 fingers and toes and unusual strength. Bible refer to them as Nephilims which means mysterious beings who are large and strong. Some other meanings called them fallen ones. They had supernatural abilities and they preyed on full humans. The situation was like what was portrayed in Harry Potter that had pure bloods, half bloods, mud bloods and muggles. The pure bloods were the witches whose both parents are also witches, half blood is a witch with one parent as witch, mud blood has both parents as normal people and muggles are non witches. At that time in Genesis 6, the Nephilims had created another race on earth that paralleled the pure humans. This what why God sent
