Diary of a Corper 7

10th May-6th Day on Camp

Mangu(...Location of the camp) keeps getting colder by the day. Temperature is mostly around 20°C and they keep saying that this is their hot season.I go about in my hood and glooves.

Sunday is the best day on camp because there was no parade. Soldiers said it is the resting day. We were allowed to wear clothes other than white. I didnt attend biblestudy at all not to talk of taking a class; i got there very late and i discovered that teachers were not enough for the study(...i felt quite bad about it).

Yesterday, i was interviewed by NCCF; i don't know what it is meant for.

After service, i went to the kitchen(...it was the turn of my platoon to cook and i was placed in the group that will prepare lunch. They placed a mountain of yam before us. If you sit on a side, you wont be able to see the other side(...the yam was really much). I peeled 15 tubers(...which is probably the yam of a whole plot of land). While peeling, i sat among some igbo ladies who seem to be experts in the peeling of yams. I chatted with them, but at some points, they spoke Igbo language to themselves and i got lost. Immediately i remembered the secret language of the Spirit-Tongues!

Just like i couldnt understand the language of those ladies because i dont belong to their family, people who do not belong to the household of God dont understand Tongues! Don't be shy to pray in tongues, those who understand are listening and replying!

I sat admist some guys to eat lunch(...i didn't talk to these ones). They were talking about their experience in drinking alcohol.t

There is a drink that gives life, i mean it makes us immortal. The more we drink, the more we become more immortal.

Ephesians  5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

I slept after eating my lunch for a while; it was refreshing.

A party is going on presently in the market of the camp,but am on my bed. Parade resumes tomorrow by 5am.

Prophetic Perspective: Israel vs Iran

The middle east situation between Israel and Palestine is a very complex one that can be viewed from many sides. Whichever perspective you choose, there will always be an unresolved issue. It is exactly a year that Hamas, a terrorist group in Palestine, dealt the biggest blow ever to the Israeli state, killing over 1000 Jews and abducting about 251. It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty.  It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...

Nigeria In The Bible

As we approach another celebration of the independence of the nation Nigeria, I will like us to know some things about this nation that the LORD has shown me. If a man wants to know the details of God's will for his life, he would need to read the things that have been written or said about him by God. Prophecy is one of the ways that the will of God can be known. Prophecy is voicing God's will. This same principle applies to territories as territories also have a will established by God for them to fulfill. In the scriptures, we see details of many nations that existed in that time. Nations like Israel, Egypt, Syria, Edom, Philistine, Babylon and in the new testament, we saw countries like Italy and Spain which still exists till today. Most of the nations that were mentioned in the old testament bear a new name today. There were some nations mentioned in the old testament, but their names were not specified. God, through the prophets spoke about the destiny of some na...

EndSARS: Prophetic Intelligence

  Some moments ago, the LORD reminded me of the things He shared with me during the protests. As usual, when I hear of an event in Nigeria or on the global scene, I would go to God for prophetic intelligence. I have always shared how that prophetic (spiritual) intelligence is the highest form of reality. When we seek God's counsel about an issue in our life, family or work, we are seeking prophetic intelligence. If we seek it for different issues in our life, how much more would it be of greater premium when we seek it for happenings in our nation. The ENdSARS protests started without any prior notice. There was no signal to it in the physical and it gathered momentum within days so much that many were surprised that Nigerians could stand up for their right. As the protests were going on, I went to God to find out His thoughts about the protests. In following God in the last days, many have missed the trail because they arrange things based on the knowledge of good and evil. We...
