Prayer Alert: Kaduna State

In my prayer times, the Holy Spirit spoke to me of an urgent situation in Kaduna state that needs to be addressed by prayers.

The LORD said that there is a spirit of the scoffer in the land that is resisting the preaching of the gospel.

The book of Proverbs actually describes a scoffer as one who denies the existence of God as a result of arrogance and pride. (Pro 21:24)

Apostle Peter in 2Pet 3:3-4 describes a scoffer as a person who do not believe that Jesus is coming back again and as a result of that, wants to live according to the flesh and it's lust.

2 Peter 3:4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of creation."

This spirit is being released over Kaduna state and needs us to pray against it.

I remember that there is a part of the vision I shared recently about a twin assembly of Nigerian politicians and pastors that I didn't include in the post I made.

In the vision, while the former president Obasanjo was addressing the assembly of politicians, the former governor of Kaduna state was moving his nose like a scoffer; insinuating that Obasanjo was lying.

Another story that the LORD brought to my heart while I prayed is the story of Paul and Barnabas preaching to proconsul Sergius Paulus in Seleucia.

There was a man beside the proconsul- Elymas, a sorcerer, who was also called Barjesus who was speaking to the ruler not to accept the gospel. See this:

Acts 13:8-10 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so his name is translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith. Then Saul, who also [is called] Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him and said, "O full of all deceit and all fraud, [you] son of the devil, [you] enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease perverting the straight ways of the Lord?

The spirit at work in Elymas is working in Kaduna at the moment. Can we join our forces and rebuke this spirit over the land of Kaduna?

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...
