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 nations that will exist in the last days.

One of such is found in Isaiah 18 verses 1,2 and 7. The description given in these verses shows that the nation is an African nation west of Ethiopia, it is divided by rivers and it has borders with the sea. This same nation was mentioned in Zephaniah 3:10.

Map of Africa showing major rivers

Checking the map of Africa, there are many countries west of Ethiopia that borders the sea and also has a river passing through them, but interestingly, only one country west of Ethiopia borders the sea and is divided by rivers and that country is Nigeria!

This portion of scripture doesn't just describe Nigeria's physical structures, it also provides insight into what her destiny looks like. Isaiah says that God will send swift messengers (Angels) to this nation that he describes as a nation with tall and smooth skinned people.

Paul talked about growing up to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ in Ephesians 4 and he also described the bride of Jesus as a church without spot, wrinkle, blemish or any such thing in Ephesians 5.

Can you see what God is going to bring out of Nigeria? Let me put it together: a tall people - the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. A smooth skinned people - without spot, wrinkle, blemish or any such thing.

Isaiah concludes by saying that this nation will bring a present to the LORD in Zion. That seals it completely! These all signifies that Nigeria will produce a church that will attain the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ and be without spot, wrinkle, blemish or any auch thing. A perfect church (Zion) will arise from Nigeria in the last days!

This looks very impossible at this time if you look at what currently obtains in the church. The essence of this article is so that you can begin to pray that the purpose of God for Nigeria will come to pass. There are many other prophecies about Nigeria by many people in several nations of the world.

Nigeria is a prophetic country, created and owned by God. Pray for Nigeria.

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. T

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
