Word For The 13th Week Of 2018


Topic: Understanding The Last Days (Part 2)

Text: 1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.

Last week, we considered this same verse which is an admonishion about how to live in this times. We really need to pay attention to the dictates of the last days as we approach the appearance of our Lord in the sky.

This week, we will look at the second part of that verse which says we should be watchful in prayers. The Jews have times that they pray and they call it 'watches'. They have 8 watches that runs round the clock. Each watch is 3 hours and the first watch starts by 6pm.

The Jews have this custom of praying always as they believe in communicating with God often. This is the same custom that Apostle Peter is selling to us in this verse. He is admonishing us to always pray in this last days.

The essence of prayers in this times cannot be overemphasized. We must learn to always be connected to God so as to know what He is saying per time and what we ought to do per time. We must create time to pray in the Spirit every day.

I urge you to always stay awake and alert in prayers at this time so as not to fall into the diverse temptation that are at our doorsteps.

Have a great week

The Coming Of The Lord Is Near

Your Brother,
Olaniyi 'Lanre

Oranmiyan (Part 3: Origin of Yoruba)

  Our journey will begin by identifying who the Yoruba people are. From the stories and relics of the children of the tribe, it is obvious that the projenitors of the tribe were deeply rooted in sorcery. Especially those who constitute the royal families. Their blood lines is soaked in idolatry, divination and sorcery. They know how to access principalities and powers and learn their worship modes. There are many stories about the origin of the Yoruba race. The Yoruba race has two major stories about their origin. One is supernatural. The other is natural The supernatural or divine one said that the supreme being, God, sent a god- Obatala to come and create the earth, but he got drunk and God had to send another god- Oduduwa. This is what some people hold. This school of thought has several loopholes chief of which is that Oduduwa entered Ile Ife in 11AD, but Ife Arts, according to carbon dating goes way back as 500BC which means that there was life in Ile Ife before Oduduwa came in.

Oranmiyan (Part 4: Lamurudu vs Oduduwa)

After being forced out of his land, Lamurudu settled in Egypt for some time where he deepened his knowledge in sorcery. He learned several patterns of rituals which still exists in some parts of Ijebu today. At that time, the Egyptians have developed so well in the worship of their gods who were originally men. The concept of gods begins with a man encountering a demonic prince who is looking for obeisance from men. These princes have the same goal as Lucifer. Once they begin to get attention from a man, the man begins to take up their (dark) nature because it is a law in the spirit realm that whatever you behold, you become. The consecration of these men to the worship of the princes led to the reproduction of the abilities and characteristics of the prince in the man, so the man becomes great among other men. Most of these men takes up the name of the prince that they worship such that when the man dies, you can keep calling his name and the prince responds to your request thereby es

Oranmiyan (Part 5: The gods of Egypt)

During the sojourn of Lamurudu in Egypt, what was going on in Egypt at that time was similar to what happened in Genesis 6:1-2 where demonic entities found a way to reproduce themselves in women to establish a race of beings that were not fully humans. These creatures were very big that they were called Giants. They had 6 fingers and toes and unusual strength. Bible refer to them as Nephilims which means mysterious beings who are large and strong. Some other meanings called them fallen ones. They had supernatural abilities and they preyed on full humans. The situation was like what was portrayed in Harry Potter that had pure bloods, half bloods, mud bloods and muggles. The pure bloods were the witches whose both parents are also witches, half blood is a witch with one parent as witch, mud blood has both parents as normal people and muggles are non witches. At that time in Genesis 6, the Nephilims had created another race on earth that paralleled the pure humans. This what why God sent
