Disobedience



I kept on wondering what the Holy Spirit has in mind with this last card of mine. Now is not the kind of time that I won't be permitted to spend my money. Wait, did I just say my money? How many times I have preached and told people that when money comes into your hand, you must allow God to decide how to spend it. It's my turn to obey.

Talk is so cheap. The Holy Spirit said He has a special assignment for the last 5,000 naira in my account. Isn't that a lovely and sweet statement? Okay o. Now, I am on the road to spend the money on this special assignment. It's so hard. If I let go of this money, that means no food tonight.

While I was meditating on how God's instructions can at times be hard to carry out, I saw a woman standing on the walk way in front of me. I knew the money is meant for her. She looked hopeful. I tapped her and stretched my hand towards her. She grabbed the money and began to run into the street behind her.

I became very curious, so I followed. She entered an hospital and paid for some treatment. It seemed like a lot of people inside the hospital were surprised that she got money for treatment.

After she paid, she turned to the people watching and said: 'can you see now that my Jesus is able to take care of me? All of you deserted me because I accepted Jesus as my Lord and you think that I will suffer for it, but Jesus has surprised all of you'.

Then a man asked her: 'where did you get the money?' She said: ' I prayed that Jesus should provide the money, then He told me to stand on the road that He will send someone to bring 5,000 naira to me'

At this point, I almost broke into tears. I had mixed feelings because of the reluctance that I had before releasing the money and was also happy that I obeyed. I never knew that so much price was placed on my obedience.

I could hear the woman's voice as I walked away. She was telling her family members that abandoned her and her sick child that Jesus is real. Her voice was full of confidence.

Can You See Islam Imploding?

Islam has taken a major stage in the world today, with many western nations trying to find their feet in the face of millions of immigrants from Islamic nations. Several European countries are losing their own culture as the Islamic wave is taking over their lands already. While in Africa, nations are embroiled in Islam related conflicts that is claiming lives in millions. In many places, Muslims have become citizens and are beginning to contest for political offices. The current mayor of London is a Muslim. Same with the current mayor of New York. Scotland already had a Muslim PM. You see, there is no issue with a Muslim becoming a political leader other than the fact that true Muslims are territorial; their religion teaches them that the religion of the ruler is the religion of the land. Is this Islamophobia? Wait. What is Islamophobia? Why should anyone be Islamophobic? Is it because terrorists are Muslims? Or because Muslims threaten to slaughter anyone who slanders their religion?...

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 ...

Seven Years In Christ- Friends

After an official meeting with executives of tacsfonOAU When I resumed for the second year in college, I saw a result of the previous year and it was 39%. I couldn't believe what I saw because it was definitely not commensurate with my efforts. I wept quite bitterly and promised God that He wouldn't see me around any of His assignments again. I just joined a subgroup in my fellowship and I expected that my results will be better because of the several testimonies that I have heard from people. As I was weeping, God directed three friends to visit the spot where I was weeping. It was a miracle that I wouldn't forget. They consoled me and encouraged me to take a step of checking the result with the coordinator of the course. Eventually, my result was changed to 62%. This is one of the many times that the Lord has used brothers and sisters around me to stabilize me and keep me in line with His purpose. The role they have played in my last 7 years cannot be written in ...
