When I Used To Be Vibrant 2

Just like I promised, this is the second part of my story of how the Lord has been able to keep my walk with Him fresh ever since I left the university. I must say this that I haven't attained, so I am still pressing just you are also.

I will be sharing some things that I believe would help you to keep your walk with God fresh. So, sit back and let's enjoy this ride with the Holy Spirit.

God brings encounters our way to energize is to follow Him more closely and more passionately, so encounters plays a major role in our walk with the Lord. Encounters can come through several ways.

One way that the Lord brings encounters our way is through 'special programs'. Really, no program is special to God. His purposes may just be different from time to time. Attending programs is a way to stay informed about the things of the Spirit.

Last year, I attended a program and the encounter of the meeting lasted with me for about 4 months. I couldn't just recover. There are other meetings I have attended like that too that gave me indelible marks.

Get to know about programs around you. Prioritize them and attend. They have a way of refueling our tank to keep walking in the way of life. No just your church programs alone; attend other church programs and interdenominational programs too. We are one body and we are all here to help ourselves.

No matter how far you may have gone from God since you left school, God love is still pursuing you and that's why He has prompted me to write this series, so respond to God's call. His love is after you; return to the Father.

I will be sharing about programs on this blog, so in case you need information about programs around you, you can always check here or visit the page on Facebook.

Before I start sharing the stories of my friends, I will share one last, but very important thing that I do that also helps in keeping me with the Lord.

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...
