Who are secret enemies? In local parlance they are called, “You-know-me-you-dey-do-me”. She was a beautiful lady. She had cars, money, a good job and many good things of life but she was unmarried. What a paradox! Brethren, the activity of a strongman…
There lived a woman. When her pregnancy reaches between 5-7 months, she sees a mad cow rush towards her in a dream and afterwards, she suffers a miscarriage. This happened more than three times. One day, her “compassionate neighbour” invited this woman…

Someone wrote: I visited my 120 years old grandmother and gave her some money when I was leaving and she told me she doesn’t need money again. She said that she can no longer buy nor sell at her age, so I should give the money to the younger ones who need it.
I also have a former governor friend whom I worked with as a green horn journalist. He was governor from 1999-2007. Not too long ago, I saw him. After I checked in, he was left seated by the corner of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, Nigeria awaiting his flight. No one even recognized him again, not even passengers from his State where he was governor, and as I walked up to him and greeted him, then I asked if he wanted any assistance, he stretched forth his trembling hands to hold me and simply said, “Thank you for even recognizing me again. I just want your attention briefly, my son….
This is a parable about the power of attitude. Be blessed. “I was at the airport when a taxi driver approached me. The first thing I noticed in the cab was a phrase: Duck or Eagle? You decide! The second thing I noticed was a clean, shiny cab, the driver well dressed, white shirt and well pressed trousers, with a tie. The taxi driver got out, opened the door for me and said: ‘I am John, your chauffeur…
Have you ever wondered what God meant when He said, “Let there be light” on the first day of creation in Genesis 1 while He went ahead on day 4 to create the sun, the moon, and stars? When He said, “Let there be light”, He meant, “let my understanding open to know what to do”. In other words, let there be impartation of creative wisdom. How far you will travel in ministry, business, academics and generally in life is dependent on the quantum of light the Holy Spirit sheds into your life. Receive light in your understanding, in Jesus mighty name…

Who could ever believe that it was the will of God for Jesus to be stripped naked? Would you ever believe that Jesus who was mighty in power and glory will ever be spat upon by carnal men? They told him, “Deliver yourself, O great deliverer”. He was beaten. He was ridiculed. He was troubled by the men He created. It is strange what the PERFECT WILL of God looks like in the beginning. Many times, it won’t be your spec. It will take only a person lost in His will, and dead to his own will to follow through. Many times, the path to the perfect will of God for you will be painful. People will call you all sorts of names…

What are the other characteristics of those that put God at the centre of their lives?:…
Sing the hymn, “Fill my cup, Lord, I lift it up Lord” on page 103. Everyone’s life as a centre. Our centre is the hub around which all decisions revolve. For some, survival is the hub from morning till night. For others, the acquisition of wealth or material goods drives their daily choices…
