Bible Reading: 2 Timothy 3: 1-5

Memory Verse: But understand this: In the last days terrible times will come. 2 Timothy 3:1 (BSB)

Take heed unto thyself!!!

1. Uproar as a king buys 20 Rolls Royce for his 15 wives at the expense of his impoverish country. Photos and videos of the swanky British-made luxury cars have been going round on the internet sparking a fierce reaction from all over the world. The king reportedly purchased 19 Rolls Royce Dawn each worth at least $346,300 for his wives and one Rolls Royce Cullian SUV for himself worth at least $325,000. The king currently has 15 wives and 23 children as at 2018. His first two wives were chosen for him by the national councillors. Many times, the king has demonstrated lack of restraint spending public money on himself and his family. He got a $13.2 million private jet for his 50th birthday gift. The king owns two private jets. This comes amidst general outcry over his royal extravagance when citizens are languishing in abject poverty. Vanity upon vanity. All is vanity. 

2. A video vixen (a woman who models and appears in hip hop-oriented music videos) has revealed she pays her part-time employees 178,000 naira to bathe her every morning. The entertainer disclosed that she recently fired her former employees who earned a monthly salary of 3.5million naira after a disagreement. Whao! What a high-maintenance skin that will die and rotten in the ground someday! Vanity upon vanity. Live simple. Don’t complicate your life. 

• A self-acclaimed pastor has shocked many after revealing that he stays with his 12 wives in the same house. This man lives in a single house with his 34 children; 25 are his children while the other 9 are adopted. Interestingly, his family shares the same meal and they seem to go along well with each other. It is interesting that the people around him think that this man is a witch doctor, arguing that there is no way one could convince 12 women to live in the same room talk less of sharing him. However, he strongly claims that he is a “man of God”. According to the man, he has a dream to marry 20 wives because this is what he promised the spirit. It is also important to note that he married his first wife 16 years ago and married other wives thereafter. Humm….any revelation that does not have its stand in the Word of God is a lie from the devil.
