Be Prepared!


"It is time to hear the word of God and the person that will share the word with us is Bro Lanre. Let us pray".

Bro Lanre sat down wondering if there is another bro Lanre in the subgroup meeting or was it that the subgroup head made a mistake? I mean how can bro Lanre be the one to share the word and bro Lanre is getting to know in less than a minute before the prayer starts.

There was no time for bro Lanre to express his shock or protest that he would not be able to take the session because he was not prepared. Bro Lanre was caught completely off guard and as he was still thinking, the prayer ended and everyone was looking at bro Lanre.

Bro Lanre is just few weeks old in the subgroup and he is being set up like this. It could have been dramatic, but thank God he read his bible in the morning, so he was able to share something.

You see, we must always be at alert to preach the word at every instance. Paul admonished Timothy to always be ready whether the time is favorable or not. There must be a word that is bubbling in your mind at every time. You must not be found without a word on your lips so that whenever opportunity to share the word comes, you will gladly take it.

Be instant in season and out of season!

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...
