THE PRAYERS

Believe it or not, the real reason why there are many crisis in our society is simply because parents are neglecting their God given roles over their children, today's parents no longer apply discipline as a tool of correction and this is a very big problem as we now have children who behaves in whatever way they so desire. Before now, parents determines what happens in the family but now children in most homes are left to decide for themselves what cloth to wear, what hairstyles to make or cut and most disappointing of them all is that children from Christian homes now determines the church they attend different from the church you were brought up.    There's an urgent need for parents take control of the affairs in their family, failure to do so will amount to negligence on their path, parents must be ready to lead from the front as this is the only acceptable way to rid the society of all manners of antisocial behaviors. My beloved brethren in the Lord I believe that you ar...

   Permit me to state that parenting particularly in this part of the world is a serious business that must not be left in the hands of others, parents must understand that if they fail in their duties then they have failed God the one who blessed them with the children. Money is good but the general well being of any family is far more better, yes, money is required in meeting the needs of the family but money alone particularly in the way and manner its been pursued by most parents will never guarantee a healthy family unit.        Part of the reasons why anti-social behaviors such as cultism, prostitution, hard drugs addictions everywhere on our streets is because the family unit has collapsed and poor parenting is a major factor responsible for this. When parents decides to spend more time out there in search of money, who do they think will be monitoring the activities of their children for them? The practice whereby children are left in the care of ot...

   Back in the days, children were jointly raised by parents and other noble characters in the society such as extended family members, teachers, community and religious leaders, these group of well meaning persons disciplined badly behaved children in their communities even without any formal authorisation by their parents, as a matter of fact, upon their return from farms, work or market, parents whose child was disciplined by any of the earlier mentioned characters goes from house to house thanking them for the good job but all that has changed as we now find ourselves in a world where parents either by themselves or through their hired thugs storms their children schools to beat up their teachers for daring discipline them.         I'm convinced that perhaps one of the reasons why parents back in the days did not suffer much illnesses such as high blood pressure and depression like we have them today was because they allowed the community to be part of ...

According to the scriptures, children are gifts or blessings from God but truth be told, the alarming rate of antisocial behaviours by the young people in our today's world leaves one wondering if parents truly appreciates or cherish such blessings. Parenting is a very serious business that requires the total commitment of parents and in all honesty any parent who is not ready to give his or her all has no business bringing any child into the world as such children may end up as terrors to the entire society. Ordinarily, parents are the pillars upon which any responsible family values are built, they are custodians of their family's morals and their behaviours within and outside of their homes goes a long way to speak on who they are but looking at the quality of parenting in our today's world, one cannot but weep for a generation that in my opinion is almost destroyed beyond redemption largely due to poor parenting and the consequences of this can visibly be seen by ...

When I hear stories of Pastors who are always in the habit of running from pillar to post on accounts that their lives are under attack by witches and wizards, I laugh and at the same time weep for the church of God, is it not shameful that ministers of God who ought to be terrors to the kingdom of darkness are now the ones running from them? Did you know that some so called ministers of God in a bid to avoid being killed by their perceived enemies now seeks for protection charms from Juju-men leaving some like us wondering if our God is no more in existence? Just recently, a young man demanded to know why the powers of God Almighty is not moving in the temple of today like it was in the old, he sighted several examples of clergies who practically demonstrated the powers of God in their lives while they were here, well, the answer I gave to him was simple and straightforward and I did so by also asking him some throwback questions such as, how spiritual is the church of today...

There's no doubt that the church here in Nigeria desperately needs prayers considering the many challenges therein,the church is seriously pleagued by all manners of crisis which in my opinion are all man made as Christ Jesus made it clear in the bible that he will build his church upon the rock and the gate of hell shall not prevail over it. Historically speaking,the early church both in the scriptures and here in Nigeria centred their works on love for one another and unity of purpose but today, the church can now be likened to an empire where the emperor battle to secure his or her territory. Many observers of our today's Churches are of the opinion that the real reason why Churches are springing up in every corners of the country is because every pastor who decides to break away from a church has just one thing in his or her mind and that thing is nothing but to set up an empire where he or she is only answerable to himself not to any one else and when they are s...
