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.

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...
