♈ THE DANGER OF TELLING LIES
I know that many are ignorant or victims of the deadly punishment behind sin of lies.
You don't commit fornication and no longer touching your body for masturbation... But unfortunately still nursing the injury of LIES.
Friends... If you are a victim... The place a prostitute will end up Is also the same place you gonna end for eternity if you refuse to repent.
The problem with many of us is that. We tend to tagged heavy sin as an enemy while harboring and nursing little little fox in our lives whose spoilt the whole lump.
And that little fox known as lies is what we gonna discuss tonight.
*π¦THE DANGER OF TELLING LIES AND UNFORGIVINESS:*
When a man lies, he will need lies to cover his or her lie but Truth don't need cover up.
I am afraid of our generation even many of our Leaders leading us.
▪️They teach us lies and call it wisdom
▪️ You lie to your parent, friends even your spouse.
▪️ You are in a place and have to lie that you are somewhere else.
....is better we ask for God's help tonight. The truth is that Jesus is ready to show us mercy...if we can repent tonight and start a new life.
Sir /Ma'am, please listen to my counsel tonight.....✍️
It's going to help your future.... John 17:18 *As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.*
There is a burden laid on my heart tonight to ask you....
What is that thing that you felt it's worth dying for or upholding just to wake up someday and find yourself in Hell? π€·♂️
Excuse me, ...how important is this thing to you that God forbid but still found in your own life? π€·♂️
Why will you go to Hell because of lack of self control?
Friends... it's quite unfortunate that *TELLING LIES & UNFORGIVENESS* will land some of us in Hell π₯
Our refusal to forgive that person that offended us. .. Yes, the person did evil to us. He or she hurt us, and unfortunately he or she refused to see his or her fault.
He or she is even claiming his or her right when this person is the one at fault.
Yes, you are not lying.... But God's expectation is for you to *FORGIVE*
Many of us are waiting for the day we will pay that person back with his or her evil. This happens among Christian even in the Church of the Living God.
If you eventually die with this mind of unforgiveness and attempt to pay that person back, then Heaven will not be your final destination.
Friends ....why will you allow this small issue to drive you to hell fire? π€·♂️
*Brethren, nothing on this earth is worth going to hell for........* Please, what has that person done to you that makes you to take him or her as your enemy? π€·♂️
I thought you were friends before? π€·♂️
.....Have you forgotten how helpful this person was to you? π€·♂️
.....Have you forgotten those period he or she was the only one there for you? π€·♂️
Why can't you remember those days and let go of the offence?
Sir/ Ma, please go and make peace.....✍️
Hebrews 12:14 *Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:*
12:15 *Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;*
Brethren, without having *PEACE* with that person, no matter the offence, no matter the issue, regardless of how great the pain is....... *you will not see Jesus!*
No matter the pain the person has caused you, the Scripture is very clear..... *GO AND MAKE PEACE!*
Sister, truly the Brother cheated you. Oh, he did evil to you. He played on your intelligence. He took advantage of you.
You depended on him but he betrayed you. Now he has caused a pain that you may not forget so soon.....
See my dear... the way you feel right now.... is the way Jesus feels anytime you sin against Him, and Yet He forgives....π€·♂️
So, you too must forgive him and let him go off your mind.... Please, if not you will miss Heaven and burn in hell. If he repent and settle with God, then he makes Heaven.
*So why will you go to hell and the Brother goes to Heaven despite the fact that he is the one that offends you?*π€·♂️
Please, decide to go and make peace tonight I beg you. π
Brethren, it's so unfortunate that BITTERNESS, QUARRELING, FIGHT, ANGER are part of today's Church.
Among all the department in the church, there is always a fight there.
See, anyone who claims he or she is working for Jesus and still fighting with someone else, having bitterness towards another person is working in vain......Because, the person is putting on a lifestyle that's not found in Jesus.
Friends, it's an act of childishness, immaturity and ignorance of your identity in Jesus when you come on your WhatsApp Status or Facebook to express your anger π‘ towards anyone either directly or by style.
When I see people like this, they instantly lose my honour. π€¦♂️
Instead of you to forgive and portray the nature of Jesus to that person, you're there defending yourself and promoting bitterness both in your own heart and that person mind.
Bros/Sis, please wake up π
.....with that heart of bitterness and anger, you will not see Jesus in Heaven.
Please forgive and let that person go.......Please go and make peace! ... If not, your seat in Hell is reserved for you.
No matter your labour for Jesus, that little bitterness and hatred towards that person in your heart will destroy them all.
*If Jesus could forgive you, why can't you forgive that person too?* π€·♂️
I have been offended by many people, yet I went to them to apologize and put the blames on my head just for them to have a good mind and peace towards me.
Well, you can say I am a foolish person but I pray you grow to be foolish in this form.
See, if that person maltreat you and you too decide to do same for him or her, it's a simple sign that you have backslided.
And no backslider will see Jesus. Can we seek God's face tonight.....
Tell the Lord you forgive anyone who has hurt and do evil to you in the past.....
Remember Joseph, he was maltreated by his elder brothers but he forgave them and blessed them.
What has that person done to you that you feel you will not move closer to him or her again... Tell the Lord you forgive him or her.
Brother, please forgive this person....Unforgiveness will block your way of blessing. It will tie you on a spot.
It renders your prayer and fasting zero......Please, forgive tonight !
Ask the Lord for help.
Brethren, many Servants of God died and people only assumed they died in the Lord but they never did because they died in sin.
Yes, many died in the sin of bitterness and unforgivess. They died with strife in their heart towards someone else.
Brethren, many died with a grief in their heart.....unfortunately, because of a little issue they could have overlooked, they lose their part in God's Kingdom. π’
May this never be our portion in Jesus name
*See, to every believer, there is someone Satan will raise to distract you and make sure you miss the Kingdom of God.*
— He may not use someone far from you.
— He may use someone so close that will irritate and pain you to carry out some operation.
The ignorance of this fact is the reason why some of us fall into this temptation of "anger" and sin against God.
*...be rest assured that as long as you are on this earth, people will not stop offending or accusing you* .
*friends, till you die and leave this earth, there are certain people you can't please no matter what you do.*
No matter how you try to please them and makes them comfortable, they will always work against you. These are people enemy has appointed to distract you and prevent you from entering the Kingdom of God.
*So instead of fighting them, why can't you remain silent and live the life of Jesus who when He was accused didn't defend Himself?*
We must be ready to forgive and let go anything no matter how great it is.
When Jesus was insulted, He never replied those who insulted Him.
Brethren, according to the Scripture, when you insult anyone who insult you, then you are not a child of God.
*Can we ask for the Grace to be quite when we are insulted just like Jesus Christ?*
Jesus was quiet before those who accused and insulted Him despite His position as God.
Friends, as we sleep tonight, if Jesus comes by RAPTURE or death comes in, where will you be?
Is there any assurance in you that you will see Jesus if any of these happens tonight?
Are you a candidate of Heaven?
Are you sure of your destination after life?
Can we please examine our life and relationship with God once again before the Gate will be closed?
.... if there is anything found in us that's not in Jesus, please ask for Grace to drop them.
....There is an end to our life here on earth Brethren.
....Where you will be after death is what matters.
Before you appear before the Judgement Seat, can you question yourself and examine if you are living right ?
Friends.... I'm still asking...
Whose Temple are you?
Whose Vessel Are You?
I believe, you can now answer the question..

Our Journey Is Short
*I've read this severally since morning. It's so true and beautifully written so l've decided to share...*
A woman climbed up the bus and sat down beside a man, hitting him with her numerous bags.
When the man remained silent, the woman asked him why he did not complain when she hit him with her bags ?
The man replied with a Smile:
"There is no need to be upset about something so insignificant, as our journey together is so short,
because I'm getting off at the next stop "
This answer disturbed the woman so much , she asked the man to excuse her and thought the words needs to be written in gold
Each of us must understand that our time in this world is so short, that darkening it with useless arguments, jealousy, not forgiving others, discontentment and bad attitudes are a ridiculous waste of time and energy.
Did someone break your heart? Stay calm.
The trip is too short
π
Did someone betray you, intimidate, cheat or humiliate you?
Relax - Don't be Stressed
The trip is too short.
π
Did someone insult you without reason?
Stay calm. Ignore it.
The trip is too short.
π
Did some one make a comment that you didn't like?
Stay calm. Ignore. Forgive, keep them in your prayers and love them still for no reason.
The trip is too short.
π
Whatever the problems some bring to us, it is a problem only if we think of it, remember
that our journey together is too short.
π
No one knows the length of our trip. No one has seen tomorrow. Nobody knows when it will arrive at its stop.
Our trip together is too short.π
Let us appreciate friends and family. Keep them in good humour. Respect them. Let us be respectful, kind, loving and forgiving.
We will be filled with gratitude and joy, after all Our trip together is very short.
*Our trip is Very Short*

Balak Must Fail
Numbers 22 : 22-31 tells us about a battle the Lord used His angel to fight for the children of Israel without their knowing. From the very moment the angel of the Lord appeared on the scene, the evil and wicked plans of Balak to use Balaam against the children of Israel was totally disorganized and frustrated.
Balak of our time is;
π That envious household enemy,
π That envious evil friend around us at school, at our office, where we live etc that detests us and our progress. As such, is doing evil things to pull us down at all cost.
But in this coming year..., the warring angels of God's presence shall take over our battles and strike them down one after the other.
The Balak that vowed to obstruct, steal and destroy our life's goals and destiny shall be frustrated and terminated in Jesus powerful nameπ (amen)
That we are serving God faithfully does not immune us against the troubles of life. On that note, Beloved, it is not strange to face attack of the enemies. Especially in our post-modern society where it is not uncommon to hear people mock God, make derogatory comments about the bible, ridicule christianity, taunt and persecute us because we are christians. When confronted with such situation(s), be not dismay, frightened, intimidated or ashamed for our times are not in the hand of our enemies and they cannot harm us without God's permission. We should also not be hasty to conclude that God has cut us off when it appears He is not responding to our prayers.
On our part, we need to recommit ourselves to Him in total obedience, replace our wrong with right and our humanistic pride with humility.
Experientially and from the practical advice of the psalmist for all believers, love the Lord, be strong and take heart (Psalm 31:15-24) - There is no greater counsel than this in times of distress.
Rather than give up or despair, look back to your previous experiences of God's deliverance. Also look forward to when you will overcome the present situation too.
Be rest assured, no man can determine your fate. The Lord will vindicate you soon.
In view of this knowledge, do this π
Action: Begin to acknowledge the greatness and the goodness of God on those who fear and trust in Him(Psalm 31:19).
Secondly, prayerfully call for angelic assistance to war in your favour this coming year 2023
PRAYER POINTS
✔️ Lord God of mercy, have mercy on me again in Jesus name.
✔️ Ye angels of God's presence, fight Balak and stop him from attacking my open doors this time around in Jesus name.
✔️ Ye angels of God's presence strengthen me against every Balak this coming year in Jesus name.
✔️ O Lord, let your angels arise, persecute and destroy every household Balak(enemy) that is saying no to Your Yes in my life this coming year
✔️ Ye angels that excel in strength, strike down every envious Balak (enemy) standing on my way of lifting in Jesus name
✔️ Ye angels of God's presence, l command you to pave the way for my promotion this 2023 in Jesus name π(amen)
ATTACKS FROM SATAN
Satan only attacks what threatens him and his operations, if your life/Ministry is not a threat to him, then he has no business attacking you.
Ever wondered why things seem to be working for unbelievers but Christians appear to be frustrated in lifeπ€? The answer is, either you or your parents took a decision to live for God and no longer Satan, hence a battle line was drawn!
Still wonderingπ€ why marriage and child conception was easier in the olden days? Whereas barrenness, late marriage...seems to be on the increase today?
Reason is because in the olden days, allegiance was to satan.
I repeat *If your life/ministry is not a threat to satan, then he has no business attacking you.*
Oppositions only comes to those in positions, only the tree with ripe fruits attracts stone, only a player with ball receives attacks, if you are experiencing any form of attack on your life and Ministry, then welcome to real life of a christian/Pastor.
If satan does not attack you directly, he uses people especially those close to you. Expect this always because it's part of the package. He may come with issue through scarcity or anything capable of pulling you down etc.
NOTE:
NO BELIEVER/PASTOR IS IMMUNE FROM BATTLES, THE HIGHER YOU GO, THE TOUGHER IT BECOMES.
What To Do?
✔️ DON'T BE DISCOURAGE/GIVE UP - (Hold/call upon God the more so that the loser will remain a loser. Since he could not win in heaven, he will not win in your life/ministry).
✔️ ENCOURAGE YOURSELF, (Knowing that many are the afflictions of the righteous but God delivers us from it ALL)
✔️ MY FELLOW SOLDIERS IN CHRIST, MOVE ON BECAUSE REWARD AWAITS US !
HUMAN CHOICE OF LIFE BASE ON THE VOICES FROM ETERNITY
It is worthy to note that there are two great voices governing the affairs of men upon the earth.
Apart from the natural voice of the inner dimension of man, there are two great voices seeking permission to manifest through man.
In Gen 2 : 16 - 17 There's this first voice that spoke to our first parent in Eden. But in Gen 3 : 4 - 5 another came to also introduce a wisdom to them.
Now, all the voices are advertising a particular wisdom to man.
The voice of man's inner speakings introduces weak wisdom, the voice of Satan introduce wicked wisdom and the voice of God brings about weighty wisdom.
God had spoken to Adam and it brought about life, but Satan went to speak to them also and because man chose to obey satan he died - It's a choice.
Every man's life is a reflection of a particular wisdom he submits to on a daily basis.
Which voice have you been living by as you do your day to day activity? Which voice have you constructed your life after? After what line of wisdom have you pattern your life?
Consider therefore this moment and gain understanding that it's only the voice of(God) the weighty wisdom that you are expected to live by throughout your sojourn on earth.
Prayer: Lord help me to always live by the wisdom that comes from above in Jesus name (Amen)

How to strike the balance between modernization and parenting
STRIKING THE BALANCE BETWEEN MODERNIZATION AND PARENTING
Suzan a young ambitious lady got a job in one of the leading new generational banks, as expected, she worked long hours leaving the care of her 14months old son in the hand of her husband who is a mini musical studio owner/producer. Jerry finds it difficult to combine his duty as a man and that of a mother. Soon, they resort to dumping the boy with his maternal grandparents in the village.
Before the seventies, there was a popular saying among the menfolk in Nigeria that the place of a woman is in the home. It was never envisaged that a woman could ever abandon the home to work elsewhere - thanks to girl's child education.
Today, there is no profession without a good dose of women. Be it in the factory, classroom or banks the women work pari-passu with the menfolk. Evidence abounds to show that the modern women have achieved a tremendous success in all fronts.
Having excelled - in all fields of human endeavour, the modern women now form an important part of today's labour force. Women have become co-breadwinners in most families and as co-breadwinners, they now have to work long hours outside the family. The garb of housewife has been done way with. Both husband and wife hurry off in the morning to get to the office on time, just as the children make their way to school. For most part of the day, the children are left on their own at home, with the house-help to look up to, for their lunch. Most women prepare the soup and store it in the freezer for the house-help to warm enough for the children. This method of preparing and stockpiling food may have taken care of the feeding, but other areas of care cannot be provided that way.
Controlling what the children do, which is an important aspect of socialization, is now left in the hands of house-help, who is also an adolescent. Parental interaction with the children is thus restricted to late, evenings. Children, have attended lessons after school hours are so worn out that they soon go to bed before the parents get home. Even when the parents come home early, they are too tired even to chat with the children. Some parents even make the mistake of bringing unfinished work home, from the office. Any little time left 4 the children is again taken up by office work.
Some house-helps even exert negative influence on, the children. These children spend the rest of the day playing and watching films. These films, more often than not - are vulgar films that should normally be reserve for adult viewing. Some go to viewing centres, these centres are breeding spots for drug addiction, sexual promiscuity, drunkenness and other variations of delinquence. There is nobody to monitor the movement and activities of these children. All ramifications of juvenile delinquency which include drug addiction, cult activities, sex-related crimes and truancy are all a direct fall-out of the changing role of women.
Peer group influence on a child in his formative years, could alter his personality considerably. More often than not, they take their role models from among the peer group. Sometimes, their models are some stars in violent films. Children love tough actors and they want to imitate them. Is it any wonder then, the increase in violent crime rate among the youths? The mother is no more there to ensure that the child did his assignments or to go through his academic work.
Where as family income is much improved by the wife changing her role from house wife to a co-breadwinner, the socialization of children is greatly hampered. The damage done in this' regard is, sometimes irreparable. Some mothers in a mistaken attempt to make it up to the children, now make money available to them on demand. What she does not realize is that she is inadvertently, financing illicit activities of the youths, who are the leaders of tomorrow are thus encouraged to go astray to the detriment of the family and society at large. If mothers were at home to guide and monitor the activities of these children, cult activities and incidence of dropping out of school - may have been in the decline. Perhaps what is desired here is re-educate parents on the importance of home train for children.
Parents should relax their pursuit of wealth give more time to their children.
Parental guidance is indispensable part of child training. There would be less cultists among our youths, if mothers could give a little more time to monitor and control the youths before they become uncontrollable.
Furthermore, the wife is now economically independent of the husband. In some cases, the wife may even be bettter placed than the husband. In some families this is one source of friction. Equality of sex and women liberation are therefore a by-product of education and industrialization which have given an unlimited opportunity to women for advancement on the social ladder. Some men find it hard to swallow the idea having the woman enjoy so much independence. This has led to homes breaking up. Apart from the economical empowerment, working long hours in the office have exposed many women to sexual harassment many resulting in extra marital affairs. Infidelity is in the increase and it accounts to a high percentage of divorce and separation rate. Education has given the women a high degree of self confidence and they are no longer the suave, naive respectable wife they used to be in traditional societies. Today, education has opened the eyes of the women. There are many things she can no longer accept as the norm, just because the man said so. This explains the higher divorce rates among the educated women. This is not to imply that every educated woman is not subject to the husband. Most educated and matured couples see marriage as a social contract between two equals, with mutual respect for each other. Where this mutual respect is lacking, the man still sees the wife as a piece of property in the house and the wife see the husband as a chauvinist and in oppressor. This sets the stage for an unstable marriage and a possible broken home. This situation is more prevalent among young couples. The older couples try to strike a balance between the modern, educated family and the traditional family.
Although the family's purchasing power is enhanced by both husband and wife working, the adverse effect on the stability of the family has negated any advantages so derived. Proponents of the traditional house wife role are quick to point to this in support of their view that the place of the woman is in the kitchen.
However, in order to strike the balance between modernization and parenting, married women should relinguish office work for unmarried ladies and embrace enterpreneurial skills. As this will help reduce unemployment, curb sexual harrassment and also afford the woman the opportunity to play her role as a wife and mother.

How to be free from health challenges
An adage says "A healthy man is a wealthy man". This post explains how I graduated from ill health to healthy living as a result of God’s supernatural powers.
September is special to me, not only because I was born in the month of september but it's also a memorable month (since 25/09/2013).
Years ago, it was malaria, HIV etc 'yesterday' it was ebola, 'today' it's lassa fever, 'tomorrow' I do not know and I'm not bothered.
Before 2013 the only one I had was malaria. I treat it every 3months but the last time I treated malaria was 2013 and I'm counting. Despite attempts by witches and wizards I'm enjoying sound health. U know why? Because my trust and confidence in time of difficulties is only in the one that created me with all the parts He knew I will need to function as human in place, even when I did not tell him to do this. In return, I obey Him because no matter the height of an okro tree the planter will bend it in other to achieve the purpose whereby it was planted. In this world, you can't afford to be neutral; If you are, like yam, satan and his people will pound u anyhow, make a delicacy out of you and no one will fight for you because you did not acknowledge the fact that God and his people can rescue u from the group of persons that only specialize in causing sorrow. In case you find yourself among these destroyers, now you're fed up and want to disassociate yourself from them but they've told you that you cannot disentangle yourself from the group. If u do, something terrible will happen. I, Esther Imabong Udeme says IT IS A LIE. Quote me anywhere: THEY ARE LIKE DOGS WITHOUT TOOTH. Approach the superior and gloat at their threat. I belong to that group where God is the grandmaster. That is why demonic people have been failing in all their plans since 2013. Among other things, they planned between december 2013 and 2014 to send me out of this world to the land of the dead but God rescued me so that I can tell the story and make MOCKERY of satanic powers. Is your health failing? You too can enjoy sound health. All you need do is obey the one that created you and made it possible for you to breath. Let me ask: How much do you pay for the air you are breathing? I am 100% sure you don't pay a dime because those paying for oxygen do not have the priviledge of reading this. I marvel with great dismay how people trust in inferior powers like that of the ancestors, charm, witcraft, false things, things that cannot give explanation of how they came to be in existence, things that were made etc thereby under-rating the power of the only one that is able to create and give life. I've never seen, heard or read that witches, wizards or any other creates man and give him life. Then why should anyone assume they are superior? Pls THINK and avoid SINKING. If in your journey on earth God did not help u; it is your fault. Till 'tomorrow', God is still in the business of helping people. My message is summed up in the words of this song because the writer is very correct Trust and obey for there's no other way to be happy in this world than to trust and obey.
