THE CHURCH IS UNDER SIEGE (Part 9)

It's a shame that the church of God which ought to be a house of prayer and worship is now being turned into a social club where the rich and their likes openly flaunts their wealth but who do we blame? When special churches are established for the elites, when they are allowed to receive and make calls while the service is going on to the extent that all you hear them discuss after church services are things that ordinarily should be discussed in their homes or social gatherings and not in the church of God, just listen to some of the things they say " Who helped you fix your nails? Where did you buy your cream? Is this bag designer? I like your hair, where did you buy it? Did you hear Yul Edochie impregnated Judy Austin?" All of these mess takes place in the church because our greedy and materialistic clergies permits them or how do you expect them to rebuke the same people whose wealth are desperately needed in their churches?

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 ...
