WHO IS AFTER MY RAIN? (Part 1).

    According to the Oxford Advanced Learners' Dictionary, rain is the water that falls from the sky in separate drops but it's a known fact that most rains are usually preceded by the gathering of cloud which sometimes serves as an indicator to how intense or otherwise the rain could fall. Growing up as a child, I remember how excited I used to be whenever the cloud of rains gathered so heavily as I saw it as an opportunity to escape trekking long distance in search of water, I remember how I will quickly gather all the drums and buckets in anticipation for the rain considering how heavy the cloud has gathered, however, my excitement sometimes ends abruptly as the heavy cloud suddenly disappears and the rain refusing to fall.

     Rain in the spiritual realm represents God's glorious heavenly downpour of grace, mercy and favour which in my opinion remains the platform upon which every other miracle stands. Just like, what happens in the physical when the cloud will gather only to suddenly disappear without the rains falling, so it is in the spiritual realm when the cloud of miracles gathers and the hopes of the expectant high that at last the rains are set to fall only to be disappointed as the cloud fades away and the life challenges remains.

   I have consistently maintained that our society in this part of the world is full of wickedness at every level, be it in the family, place of work, neighbourhood, school and church among other places, just pick up the newspapers or put on your radio or television and you will be shocked with the stories you read and hear and the surprising thing is that there are more churches everywhere now but high level wickedness are on the increase with siblings waging war against themselves with diabolical powers, you now find evil minded neighbours attacking their fellow neighbours with witchcraft and envious and jealous colleagues now plots the death of their colleagues for the sake of posts or positions and the most worrisome of them all is in the church where some pastors will take to character assassination and poisoning of their copastors all for position.

LET'S PRAY FOR THE CHURCH.(PART 8)

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...

BEWARE OF DEMONIC HOUSE-MAIDS(part 2)Continuation.

   Be careful and prayerful before engaging the services of a house-maid so that you do not set your home on fire.Some years ago i went to pray with a couple who were worried that since the birth of their nine years old daughter, every attempt to have another child failed to materialize  in spite of their efforts, immediately we ended the prayers, their nine year old daughter walked up to me and said,"pastor,I am the reason why my parents are yet to have another child".Shocked by her open confession, I demanded that she should explain to us the reason behind her action and She said,"I am scared that my parents may not pamper me the way they used to if they give birth to another child and so I tied-up my mother's womb".Asked how she came about the demonic powers she was using on her parents,she said,"I was initiated into the kingdom of darkness through an orange given to me by our former House-maid".                   Be carefu...

THE CONSEQUENCES OF PARENTAL FAILURE(PART 1).

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 ...
