BLESSED IS THE NATION

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD…" (Psalm 33 : 12)

Today, in Nigeria, we celebrate the many freedoms of this great nation of ours! Few nations on the globe enjoy the liberties we do.


Take a moment to reflect on where we have come from and to where we are progressing. As we prepare with our families and friends to crossover into the coming year and, participate in the fourth election come February 2023. Let us remember those who fought to establish and maintain our liberty.

The first guarantee in the Bill of Rights is the freedom of religion. Across this land, we have the right to assemble in Churches and Mouse, pray freely, worship extravagantly, and boldly teach the Gospel of Christ and Muhammad. We can publish books, broadcast television shows, and stream services on the internet to lift up the name of Jesus – even in countries that are denied those rights.

We have the right to an education, to speak opinions freely, and to vote for the people and policies that govern our nation. We can join a political party, march on cities of Abuja and Lagos or lobby our representatives.

With these freedoms come responsibility. How are we stewarding these liberties for the cause of Christ? Are we praying? Exercising our right to vote? Proclaiming God’s truth? May we always stand “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Today's Blessing

May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. Humble yourself before God to pray, repent, and seek His face. May He hear from heaven and heal our land. May He forever be Lord of Nigeria.

ON A MISSION

Image
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?’ Then I said, ‘Here am I! Send me.’ (Isaiah 6 : 8) The Church today is not so much guilty of the sin of commission or omission, but of no mission. We hang back and wait for the lost to enter our world when we need to enter their world with God’s love and His heart. We have been rescued, saved, delivered, healed, showered with blessings, and highly favored. This good news should be so uncontainable that we are sharing it with every person we encounter. Instead, we often hoard it, hide it, and hope nobody asks. We stall while we wait for the grand gesture to speak to thousands, to touch the masses, to travel to a foreign land. But can we walk across the street and talk to our neighbors? Jesus’ example for us was often the opposite of the grand gesture. He held a child. He ate fish with his friends around a campfire. He touched a leper when no one else would. He discussed the Scriptures in the temple...

PROTECTING OUR HERITAGE

Image
So I answered them, and said to them, ‘The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem.’ (Nehemiah 2 : 20) In our husband-wife relationships, we are responsible for maintaining the border of marriage. Nehemiah demonstrates a principle for us as we consider those who might discourage us in our endeavors. In complete confidence, Nehemiah declared to the triple threat: “The God of heaven Himself will prosper us.” He put his enemies on alert. No matter what they said or how they attempted to thwart him, they had no bearing on his outcome. His outcome was determined by God alone. He was the One Who would protect and prosper them. In fact, he went on to say: “…you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem.” He reminded them that the land on which they stood was covenant land. It was given to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all of the generations following. Outsiders had no role in tha...

COMMITMENT THAT BRINGS VICTORY

Image
" Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He shall bring  it  to pass". (Psalm 37 - 5) In every congregation or conversation with Jesus recorded in the Bible, three types of individuals emerge. The curious came to hear what this preacher had to say. The convinced believed, through their experience and observation, that He had the power to change their lives. The third group of individuals moved beyond the curious and the convinced to a faith that changed the world – they were the committed. One day, five thousand people came to hear Jesus – some walking great distances. He had compassion on them, and He healed the sick and hurting that came seeking His help. When evening arrived, the disciples urged Him to send them off to nearby villages in search of supper. He said, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.” The twelve were convinced that Jesus was Who He claimed to be, that He had the ability to help, but they approached Him only to point ...
