Nigeria At This Time

 




After the #EndSARS protests that rocked many parts of the nation, Prophet Fanny organized a meeting where prophets around the country made known their hearts on what they believe God is doing in Nigeria at that time. One of the words that stuck with me was that Nigeria is at war with a strong man.

A strong man is a spirit that enforces a certain experience in the territory, a family or an individual. Forward to July 2021, I took some lessons about a strong man and how to deal with it and I found out that a strong man can take the will of a leader in the territory or family and ensure that the person acts according to his dictates. Many of us have seen this manifest in families where someone needs to be eliminated sort of, before some good things can happen. This is because the person has allowed his/her will to be completely usurped by the strong man.

Tying this to Nigeria, I have watched Buhari metamorphose in the last 4 years. He seems to get deeper and deeper into something that is not supposed to be of a democratic leader. Sometimes in May 2021, I had a confrontation from the strong man of Nigeria. In a dream, walked into a room where Nigerian leaders were having a sort of gathering. I saw the president and I, with a friend, made to take pictures with him. He turned at us with a smile and obliged. In a twinkle, this same man turned at me and said 'you know too much. I will kill you' Immediately, I saw several men turn towards me and started shooting. It was like a high level stage of schizophrenia; two personalities in the same man.

Presently, our president has been subject to a great influence of the strong man of Nigeria. As a matter of fact, it seems like the strong man is fully in charge of everything. One way to ascertain this is to consider the form of solution that we have been seeking to solve the challenges of Nigeria, especially the security situation in the south west. Last week, I saw in the news that Osun state inaugurated 42,000 hunters to help fight the insecurity. I watched how these hunters donned all manners of charm on National TV. Witches and priests of demonic altars sat with the governor to forge a way forward. My heart sank! They were proudly showing forth the things they ought to gather to burn at crusades. Is that the solution? Do we now trust in the charms of Amotekun? And boldly? Are we moving forward or backward?

To be clear, I do not see Sunday Igboho as working for Zion's purposes. Being against the Fulani's unlawful encroachments is not automatically equal to being on God's sides. Another discussion for another day. Right now, believers are looking at the wrong places for solution. Many have neglected the plan from the LORD. Just like the devil seeks to dissuade a man from following God’s plan through challenges, the devil is trying to give Nigeria another direction. The goal remains one: Nigeria will be the most peaceful nation on earth before Jesus comes (Cindy Jacobs, 2002); Nigeria will be a prototype of the kingdom of God on earth (S.G. Elton). We are not going back to the charms that our grandfathers in the faith spent their life to abolish!

The church is being overcome by grief and hatred. There is a reason why Paul said we should stand in gap for those in authority. He said so that we would lead a quiet and peaceable life. The equation is simple. Look around you. How many are standing in gap for Buhari? Are we fulfilling 1Tim 2:2? The church must learn to provide spiritual cover for those in authority so that they can be immune to the dictates of the hordes of darkness seeking to engulf our land. From what I can see here, Buhari has been opened up to too many demonic influences; major portals of darkness are currently opened in our land. Gone are the days when you need to be rich or related to a rich person before you can be subject to kidnapping. Blood sucking demons are in every corner of this country. Stealing, killing and destruction are the very signature of the devil!

We need to repent. We have been hurt. Many times. However, we need to cover this man. He needs us more than we think. Our intercession will be therapeutic. Jihad is bigger than Buhari. Pray for your president! In case you need more convictions on why Nigeria needs to stay as one, you can download Apostle Arome’s message titled ‘Why We Need To Pray For Nigeria’.

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...
