This is one of the articles I won't share the link. I will rather leave it here for anyone who finds my blog important enough to read "unpopular posts". Writings that fall into this category are sort of like my diary, but I share them here because I want you to learn about the faithfulness of God. At the moment, I am planning to relocate to Lagos, Nigeria in few days. I'm leaving my biological and spiritual family and my job. The LORD asked me to move. I wouldn't be thinking of relocating if not for the instruction of the Father to move. Lagos has never been a ready option for me to live in, but the LORD must be obeyed. I have read several articles and heard many things about Lagos. I feel like a fish thrown onto a mountain. It's completely out of what I can handle. I really wish God would change His mind, but He is not a man. I'm moving to Lagos, the center of commerce for Nigeria. I don't have a job neither do I have any savings. All I have ...

For a while, I sensed a strong pull at my actions and habits. It was periodic, intelligent and well calculated. I wondered how this could be happening! It sort of dampened my spirit from being active to the things that I have been called to be and do. Then, one night, God, out of His mercy opened my eyes to understand the situation. In a night, the LORD spoke to me about a spirit called Leviathan. I had heard of the name before but I did not know the meaning. I began studies on the name immediately I rose from the vision and the result of my study with meditation showed me clearly that I was under the influence of Leviathan! Actually, the words of the LORD to me in the vision was "you are fighting against Leviathan". Leviathan in the bible is first an extinct animal  from the book of Job before it appeared again as a deadly demonic spirit. What does it do? Leviathan seeks to take away the will power of man and make man do things as if he doesn't have control over...

I do not like the idea of reacting to an event. As believers, we have an advantage in the Holy Spirit to know about future events and either prevent or facilitate it. Events should not meet us unawares. This writing is not as a result of the recent happenings in Kogi state, but as a result of an impulse from the LORD. It was a night before a time to pray for the nation that I jerked out of my sleep around 2am. I checked my heart to pick why I woke up (The LORD often wakes me up during the night to share things with me), but I didn't pick it at first. I slept back and jerked out of sleep again in another 30 minutes as I saw a man throw a beehive into my bed. This time, fear had filled my room so much that I could almost smell it. I thought it's a threat to my life, so I picked my bible. (I have learned never to pray out of fear. I ask the Holy Spirit for direction) I confessed Psalm 91 and went into meditations. As I meditated, I knew that the picture I saw as I woke up t...

I have been seeing some posts by believers that the Netflix's Gay Jesus does not matter and doesn't mean anything; it won't affect us. 'Jesus won't be affected.' 'Netflix is too small'. For God's sake! When are we going to learn?!!! We are always denying issues that affects us and keep up with our church programs as if we are not influenced by the spheres of influences. Entertainment is a valid sphere of influence, but we keep denying it. We say it doesn't matter. Movies matters! They influence us! Movie is a way to influence man and this particular one is aimed at the church and intending church members. It may not affect you, but what about many thousands (if not millions) that have not read the bible in their life in the West and the fast rising 'woke' generation of thinkers in Africa. That's film will form a basis for thinking patterns of many. Some are just getting to know about Jesus and that film may be their first con...
