As we approach the 2023 elections in Nigeria, the LORD, by mercy has not kept us in the dark as He keeps unveiling the plans of darkness to keep Nigeria from fulfilling God's plan. If you have been following my writings about the election, you will be aware of how there is a plan to stir up the spirit of June 12- a time portal for violence, political uprising and religious persecutions. In 1993, the mantra of the leading candidate who was going to enforce that reality was 'Hope'. Today, we have one of the leading candidates with the mantra 'Renewed Hope'. Apart from the similar mantra of these two candidates (separates by exactly 30 years), they both have religion tickets. It is easy to fish out the spirit behind this renewed hope. Hope is an aspiration to do something. A week ago, after ministering in Christian Youth Alliance, Lagos, the Holy Spirit said He would visit us in dreams that night. That night, just before I woke up, I had a dream. I saw a public transpo...

In my last post about altars , I shared how that an altar is the junction point between the physical and the spiritual realm. If you want to effect a change in the spiritual realm, you will need the services of an altar. Altars have an ability to 'speak' into the spiritual and how loud the voice of an altar is depends on the spiritual stature of the sacrifice on it. The functional part of an altar is the sacrifice. An altar without a sacrifice cannot make an impact in the realm of the spirit. In the old testament, sacrifices are offered on altars and the incense rising from it is regarded as a sweet smelling savour to God. Which means that it is the incense rising from an altar that actually reaches out to the realm of the spirit. These types and shadows paint the realities of the new testament believer. The new testament believer is built as a spiritual altar that can reach out to God and where God can be felt. We are built as living stones fit together to form a temple. The t...

  If you do a character study of Abraham, you will find something curious about an act that he repeated many times. As he moved from place to place, he would hear the voice of God and in every spot where he hears the voice of God, he would build an altar. The bible would say that the altar is a memorial of his encounter with the LORD at different places. Which means that anyone that gets to that spot will see a witness that it is possible to hear God form that point. We see this practice in the Old Testament so much that people could not reach out to God except there is an altar. An altar is a pile of stones upon which a flat slab is placed for sacrifices to be offered. There is a place where woods can be placed inside it to provide fire for the burning of the sacrifice. The act that was found with Abraham suggests that there are physical locations where it is possible to reach the supernatural realm. Jacob was travelling to his uncle’s place when he came across a physical locati...
