Recently, I was discussing with a friend concerning the coming general elections in Nigeria. I told him that there isn't going to be any surprise in the election as the next president is almost already determined. As I made that statement, I felt a sharp witness within me that I shoukd have said that. After the discussion, I decided to find out what the witness was all about. Nigerian election hardly lead to surprises, especially the presidential election so this makes a lot of people not to be interested in voting and even the entire process, but at this time, the Lord is calling for a different approach. Talking with the LORD, I found out that God has a plan for the presidential seat of Nigeria and He requires incense to be offered for the 'cup to be full' before His counsel can come to pass. This means that there is a need to pray for the will of God to come to pass. If you are a consistent follower of my writings, you'll know that I have said it in the past that God...

  I think I may have written on this topic already, but I have a nudge in my heart to do this again. What is prophetic perspective? What is the importance of a prophetic perspective? How does prophetic perspective affect us? We live in a world that is fundamentally spiritual, but because the spiritual cannot be seen with the eyes of the flesh, it is often relegated to the secondary. Physical activities on earth are a result of spiritual permutations. Paul, the apostle, charged the Ephesian church to understand God's will and not walk in foolishness. He also charged the Corinthian church to pay attention to spiritual things than the physical. About a month ago, I was reading the book of Revelation. Those parts that talks about seals being opened and different horses riding into the earth to cause different things to happen. I wondered if we are going to see physical horses riding in the skies or on the land across countries, it then dawned on me that these are spiritual visions. Whe...

Psalms 119:105 Your word [is] a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. We live in prophetic times which simply means that we are living in a time that prophets have spoken about. We are living in the times where prophecies are being fulfilled. Our God is a prophetic God that chooses to reveal His mind to His servants the prophets. When God releases His plans to a prophet and it is proclaimed via the means available to the prophet, there is a need for us to respond to what has been said. The heart that believes in what has been proclaimed will work towards getting that word fulfilled in his/her life. The word of God is the light of our path. If we will stay in light, we will have to be aligned with the word. As it is, it seems like light has a mind if its own and as such moves in a specific direction. A wise heart will discern the path of light and follow it. These days, we have to pay attention to what the Lord is saying or has said through His prophets and your prayers should be in t...

In this times that the body of Christ is littered with words like portals, realms, dimensions, altars etc, the right response to this is to learn about them. There are a group of people who have decided to ignore them and 'stick with the finished works of Christ' while some others have created a lust for these words so as to sound deep. Both camps are wrong. The right response is to find out what the Lord is saying through these 'new' words and teachings. Bible admonishes us to buy the truth and sell it not. We have a duty to investigate and not ignore. When you check, you'll find out that these teachings are firmly rooted in the finished works of Christ and they only sound high because we are not used to them. We cannot ignore things because we do not understand. The right response is to study like the Bereans. This is why majority have little or no understanding of the prophetic books of the bible(Ezekiel, Isaiah, Micah, Joel, Zechariah; don't even mention Rev...

 Matthew 25:32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides [his] sheep from the goats. The current war in Ukraine has polarised a great percentage of the nations of the earth. Apart from this war, many other issues separate countries into different categories. Do you know that Jesus also would separate nations? Jesus, in one of His teachings about His return talked about gathering nations and separating them into the sheep nations and the goat nations. Now, this has application on several levels. The nation here can refer to countries, spheres of influence, families, people groups or communities. Irrespective of the specific direction, it is clear that a nation can choose righteousness or sin. The interplay among the decision of the majority, their leadership and the prevailing priesthood will determine the posture of the nation. In this times that the kingdom is very close to being fully established on earth, God i...

Text: Matthew 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. In this season of increasing light, we are seeing a dichotomy between those who are disciples and those following for the sake of what they can get from God. Many of the last days event that we push to after rapture will actually take place here on earth or let me say, we will see a measure of it here on earth before we transit to heaven. One of those events is what Jesus described in Matthew 25 using the parable of 10 virgins. Jesus said that the kingdom of heaven will be like 10 virgins who took lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Take note that they are all virgins and they all have lamps which means that these 10 virgins have consecrated themselves to Jesus and they all have lamps which signify revelation knowledge. A believer that has given his/her life to Jesus, consecrated himself/herself and even have revelation knowledge would b...

Recently, I found myself asking a question: does God use introverts? Of course, my answer is yes, but it took me a very long road to agree with that. The first time I heard the word introvert, it was used in an abusive way. One of my neighbors met me and tongue lashed me seriously because I hardly talk to him. One of the many harsh things he called me that evening was introvert. I was in SS3. I returned home to consult my dictionary, but the meaning I saw didn't do enough to sanctify the meaning of an introvert in my mind. I saw it as a negative character and some sort of illness. It affected my self esteem greatly. I carried the badge of inadequacy and abnormality all around. You could easily read it on my face. As a fresher in OAU, it became more glaring. I got more names like boring and proud. People thought I wasn't willing to talk to them when deep within me, I was craving so much of it, but I just didn't know how to. I discovered that I preferred staying alone than wi...

Reading my blog posts is one thing that consumes me a lot. I enjoy reading old posts and I would wonder where it came from. To be candid, I don't consider myself to be a prolific writer. I think I just love the conversations in my head more. Being an introvert may have contributed to it, but really, I think this world is boring. Like, there is nothing that makes us to be ecstatic again. Social media trends are no longer surprising. They have become too predictable. Even football. Messi have messed things up and Ronaldo have run things down. Lol. There is nothing new again jare. Sometimes, I just feel like we should have an event that would make the world go gaga for some days. Let's shoot some adrenaline into our systems and make everyone run around. Like those Marvel films where aliens invade the earth and all nations will feel their presence and we will all forget about Twitter and Buhari for like one week. Lol. It would be cool right? Don't worry, it's not a bad thou...

In a program in December 2021, I shared with the people on the need for prophetic intelligence for intercessors. Intercessors must know that prayers is not the first part of intercession, but research into the situation; allowing the Holy Ghost to open your eyes to see the secrets that is actually causing the physical situation. This Ukraine-Russia war is not any different as there are secrets behind the ugly incidence going on in Ukraine. I have followed both sides of the story to see from the perspective of the two nations and I have seen that both have a logical reason for their stance, though, I believe Russia is more logical in this matter. Irrespective of who is right and wrong, there is an underlying force that is making the war to happen and that is what intercessors must face. The war started after the time portal 02-20-2022 which signifies that it is sponsored by divination or sorcery. A lot was tied to that day in Kremlin .  “After Feb. 20 was always the more important t...

Last week, the LORD began to tell us of a separation that is already going on. A lot of activities are going on in heaven right now for the reception of the saints that overcome. One of those activities is the marking or sealing of men into several orders. God is separating individuals into the hot and lukewarm. Many parables of Jesus showed that the last days will lead to many separations.   In the book of Revelations, Jesus described the state of seven churches and one of them is the Laodecian church. This church felt they had a lot of things already so much that they were described as lukewarm. Lukewarm is a mixture of the hot and he cold. This is because they could not see their wretched spiritual state. On the individual level, God is going to separate us into hot and lukewarm. Take note that this separation is among believers and not unbelievers which means that there are several camps among the believers. We are in the season where you cannot continue to fake things. You mus...
