Surprise!


Sometimes ago, my mum bought a small goat. She has always wanted a goat and finally, she got one. She cherished the goat and fed it with all kinds of delicacies. Mum liked it so much that she named it. She called it 'Jeje' which means gently. Mum's attitude to the goat made it get the beating of its life when she was not around.

After some months, mum began to think of how to get Jeje impregnated so that she can establish a clan of goats in our backyard. She was planning to send the goat to a place where it can get impregnated when something happened. It was very early that morning and mum had gone to say hello to her pet and she found two babies beside Jeje!

She came back almost dancing. Jeje has given birth to twins when we didn't even know that it was pregnant. It was a surprise. A pleasant one for mum, but a bad news for some of us who never wanted to share our compound with goats.

There are some testimonies that are simply surprises and God actually surprises man. One sunday in OAU, a former president that studied Computer Science told us that there are some things they do in a place called 'back end' on a website and there have been times that they were working on the back end of a website, but the website was still looking very crude because they have not loaded what they have typed in the back end. Once they load it, the website changes in a very surprising way.

Faith in God must give room for faith in the process of God. What's happening now could simply be the time that God is cooking a surprise. Let patience have it complete work within you. God surprises man! Get ready for a dance!

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...

Nine Years As A Scribe

So, last night, I was meditating about the things that God is doing in this times and it dawned on me that we are in a period where our minds are being bombarded with images, video and text. We are in the greatest period of media height. Everywhere you turn, you see something waiting for your mind to feed on. You're not free at any point in time from the floods coming from the various platforms. Majority of the contents in recent years are immoral and the cry for biblically sound and creative content has been going on for some years. Thank God for the success that we have recorded in the past few years. The media is being used to project several images into our minds. I did a small social experiment last month. I was speaking to a group of young boys in a school about Bobrisky. I asked how many of them would like to be like him and no one raised hand. Then I changed the question and said that if I tell you that I would give you 1 million every month and all I want from you is to be...
