Urgent prayer request: Christians in Northern Nigeria face severe persecution, violence, and displacement due to their faith. Pray for their safety

Posted on by

Being a Christian in Northern Nigeria is very dangerous.

Many Christians face, violence, and attacks just because of their faith. Their churches are sometimes burned down, and they are forced to leave their homes for safety.

The danger is very real, and many Christians live in constant fear of being hurt or killed. Please always keep them in your prayers!

Another dark day in Riyom LGA of Plateau State. Yesterday, precious lives were cut short in a fresh attack. Several homes were burnt. Families shattered. Dreams ended. The pain is unbearable. Their only “crime” was being born in a land constantly under siege.

Legacy of Light: What Pope Francis Taught the World by Peter Obi

Today, I joined Francis Cardinal Arinze, global dignitaries, and thousands of mourners at St. Peter’s Basilica, Rome, to pay my final respects to His Holiness, Pope Francis, who passed away on April 21. The solemn lying-in-state ceremony was a moment of deep reflection, as the world bids farewell to a man who embodied humility, simplicity, and selfless service.

Pope Francis was more than a Pontiff; he was a moral light in a world darkened by inequality and indifference. His life was a testament to leadership as a sacred duty, one rooted in compassion, truth, and service to the poor and marginalised. He lived for others, spoke for the voiceless, and reminded us all that leadership must be about lifting others, not self-exaltation.

I came to truly appreciate what he stood for after my appointment as a member of Scholars Occultantes – an international circle of thinkers he founded during his time as Archbishop. The organisation, dedicated to truth, ethical leadership, and social transformation, gave me a deeper insight into the intellectual and moral force behind his teachings.

I was blessed to meet Pope Francis on three occasions. Each encounter left a lasting impression. He radiated peace and inspired faith, and his presence was a quiet yet powerful reminder of the divine responsibility that leadership entails. His humility was infectious, his vision deeply human.

As we mourn this great soul, I urge political, religious, and community leaders, especially across Africa, to reflect on his life and commit to the values he upheld: justice, peace, and human dignity. Let this moment not just be one of mourning, but a call to lead with conscience, walk with the people, and govern with love.

May Pope Francis’ soul rest in perfect peace, and may his legacy live on in all who seek to serve humanity selflessly. -PO

A South African cleric, Bishop Kelly Mashudu Tsedu-Muntswu, has listed signs that indicate that a pastor may be in a cult.

Bishop Kelly Mashudu Tsedu-Muntswu disclosed this in a Facebook post on Wednesday, April 9, 2025.

According to him, the signs include distorting core Christian teachings, demanding absolute loyalty and dishonoring the family unit.

“Isolating Members: Cults often encourage members to cut ties with family and friends who don’t share their beliefs, creating a sense of dependence on the group,” he wrote.

Demanding Absolute Loyalty: Cult leaders often demand unwavering loyalty and obedience, often portraying themselves as infallible or divinely chosen.

Dishonoring the Family Unit: Some cults undermine the importance of family, viewing it as a distraction or obstacle to their goals.

Suppressing Critical Thinking: Cults often discourage questions, dissent, or independent thought, instead promoting unquestioning acceptance of their doctrines.

Distorting Core Christian Teachings: Cults may add or invent new doctrines that contradict or distort fundamental Christian beliefs, focusing on secondary issues while downplaying salvation.

Unrealistic Expectations and Demands: Cult leaders may set impossible standards or demand excessive time, energy, or resources from their followers.

Manipulative Language and Tactics: Cult leaders often use emotionally charged language, guilt-tripping, or fear-mongering to control their followers.

Secret or Special Knowledge: Cults often present themselves as possessing exclusive knowledge or insights that are not available to outsiders, fostering a sense of exclusivity.

Unhealthy Level of Control: Cults often exert excessive control over their members’ lives, dictating their choices, relationships, and even their thoughts.

BESIDE what is written above, the inner you will testify, you may not put a finger to it, but something in you will testify.

This post does not suggest that you go around accusing people Because they do things differently from you, like I said, discernment is KEY!

Attention from Men or God?

WATCH THE DEVOTION VIA THE LINK BELOW 👇

TEXT: Matthew 6:16-18(NKJV)

6:16. “Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.

6:17. “But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

6:18. “so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who [is] in the secret [place;] and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

Today’s passage does not condemn fasting as a spiritual tool because it starts with the phrase, ‘when you fast…’ Fasting should not be done in hypocrisy to show spiritual prowess. Anyone who fasts to receive the applause of men has fully received his reward. Fasting done to fulfil all righteousness is also futile. This is the case in Zechariah 7:1ff when the Israelites asked God whether they would continue their routine fast which they had done for seventy years since they returned from exile. Surprisingly, God told them that they had not been fasting unto him. So, it is possible to fast routinely for seventy years and not attract the attention of heaven. True believers should therefore fast to bring the flesh under control and get closer to God. It should be an exercise between man and God and not for public advertisement. Jesus also taught that fasting is a tool to gain victory over some levels of demonic challenges (Matt. 17:21).

 Examine yourself. What is your motive for engaging in fasting? Remember that the personality you seek to please will be the one to reward you. If you seek to please men, they will applaud you. If your motive is to glorify God, He will respond positively to the desires of your heart. Start fasting;do it correctly and heaven will visit your closet.

PRAYER: Dear Father, please help me to learn to fast to your glory, Amen!

Daniel Olukoya Warns of Spiritual Consequences for Men Who Disvirgin Women

Posted on by
Reply

Dr. Daniel Olukoya, the General Overseer of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM), has issued a strong warning regarding the spiritual consequences of men who engage in pre-marital sexual activity. According to Olukoya, disvirgining a woman creates a spiritual covenant that can lead to lifelong bondage if marriage does not occur.

During a sermon, Olukoya emphasized that this covenant can also result in the transfer of demonic influences to future partners, causing significant spiritual harm. He stated, ‘If you’re a man and you have disvirgined somebody or more than one lady. Don’t be surprised if your life is upside down. Because when you disvirgin a woman, you wet your male organ with the blood from that woman. So you have formed a covenant with that woman. So to now say you did not marry the person is a serious problem you have caused for yourself. It will go from generation to generation unless you break it. If the girl you disvirgin is now demonic, then you have formed a covenant with a girl and with a demon. And when you move over to another woman, the extra luggage you collected from that demonic girl, you transfer it to another girl that has no demon, that one too will collect.’ This teaching highlights the MFM’s strong stance on sexual purity and the spiritual implications of sexual relationships outside of marriage. The message underscores the importance of understanding the spiritual dimensions of sexual activity within this religious context.

About Those Scribes

Woe unto You, Scribes and Pharisees

About Those Scribes

 

 

 

 

 

Luke 6:7, “And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day, that they might find an accusation against him.”

 

 

 

 

 

MATTHEW 12:1-14; MARK 2:23-3:6; LUKE 6:1-11

The scribes were copyists of the Holy Scriptures. They preserved in written form the oral law, and faithfully handed down the Hebrew Scriptures. In New Testament times, they were students, interpreters, and teachers of the Old Testament. Their functions regarding the law were to teach it, develop it, and use it in any connection with the Sanhedrin and various local courts. They were ambitious for honour, which they demanded, especially from their pupils, as well as from the general public. This homage was readily granted them (Mt. 23:5-11).

Ezra was a scribe during the Babylonian captivity of the Jews, and he was a very godly man. The office of a scribe was a worthy one, but the scribes of Jesus’ day were often rebuked by Him for having gone beyond the job of copying out the scriptures. They had a large volume of interpretations that they had added to the scriptures based on traditions, and had thus made “the word of God of none effect” (Mk. 7:13).

The scribes became an independent company of interpreters of the law and leaders of the people. Even they, themselves, sought to evade certain of their own precepts (Mt. 23:2-4). They clashed with Christ for He taught with authority and condemned the external formalism that they fostered (Mt. 7:28-29). They persecuted Peter and John (Acts 4:3-7) and had a part in Stephen’s martyrdom (Acts 6:12). However, although the majority opposed Christ, some did believe (Mt. 21:15).

Later on, we’ll read how Jesus exposed the hypocrisy of the scribes by dealing with issues of the heart. They appeared to be holy outwardly, but their hearts were far from God. It is important for us to keep our hearts tender and receptive to His Word, and give ourselves to Him in worship. Think about the good things he has done for you today and be thankful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Because of Who God Is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Proverbs 30:4-5: “Who has mastered heavenly knowledge? Who has ever caught the wind in His hand? Or wrapped up water in a piece of cloth? Or fixed the boundaries of the earth? Who is He, if you know? Who is His son? God keeps every promise He makes. He is like a shield for all who seek His protection”
An average believer makes a casual commitment to God and
serves Him only because of what He can do for them. Let us never
forget WHO HE IS! He is THE MIGHTY GOD and deserves reverence and
full devotion. It’s time to make the adjustments and serve Him
because of Who He is.

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Are You A Leader?

 

“And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen!” (Revelation 1:6)

One commodity the world is in short supply of is good leaders. Even in families, they are needed. A family can be the smallest organisation – comprising the husband and his wife. Yet, if the man lacks leadership skills to provide the required direction, guidance, coordination and control, it may be difficult for the family to realize its collective goal. Every organization is only as good as its leaders. Therefore, it becomes mandatory for future leaders to acquire leadership training, education and skills. To succeed, you will need to learn from those who succeeded or failed and why they had such outcomes.

 

“For many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14). Position of leadership is not meant for all but for the chosen few. In the world, there is a large space for followers, whereas the space reserved for leaders is quite small. But in the Kingdom of God, it is possible for everyone who receives Jesus Christ as Lord and personal Saviour to become a leader. Revelation 1:6 says Christ has made us kings and priests unto God the Father. Every king has his sphere of influence, area of authority, and subjects under him. If you have been saved, then exercise your God-given authority and dominion over sin, sickness, satan, agents of darkness and elemental forces. If they are convinced you know your kingdom rights, they will have no choice but to obey you.

Believers in Christ are destined to reign for 1000 years with the KING of kings during the millennial reign and then eternally with Jesus Christ. In other words, you were born to reign. However, are you preparing for this great leadership opportunity? Some people struggle, fight, malign others and carry out all tricks in the book just to have an opportunity of occupying a leadership position during their lifetime. But after a few years in that position, they become eternally irrelevant. In contrast, you can be relevant today and in eternity. You may not become a president, governor or captain of industry but you can become the spiritual father of the president or governor. You can become the mentor youths would like to pattern their lives after. You can become a reference point standing as light in a dark world. Are you occupying this vantage position?

God sees you as a leader. But if you do not see yourself as such, you may never lead throughout your life.

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Divisions Not Allowed In God’s House

Divisions Not Allowed In God’s House

 

 

“Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (Corinthians 1:10)

 

 

 

 

If there will be unity in a family, church or a group of people, the role of the leader cannot be over emphasized. A leader should be the unifying force over those he or she leads. In this regard, the leader should ensure his subordinates’ opposing or dissenting views are harmonized in a way as to carry all of them along their common objective for being together in the first place. Unfortunately, some leaders deliberately encourage divisions, by sowing seeds of discord and turning one subordinate against the other. They call it divide and rule ‘strategy’. That is satanic! Some leaders encourage or provide the platform for subordinates to create camps. Not Jesus! As long as Jesus was physically present, He was the rallying point of unity for all His disciples. One day, two brother – James and John brought their mother to lobby Jesus, so that they would secure the highest positions in Heaven, right beside the Lord Himself (Matthew 20:20-24). When the other disciples heard of it, they were very angry! That move could have broken the twelve into separate camps. But the Lord handled it with wisdom and they remained united without killing the desire of the Zebedees to attain heavenly greatness.

It is very challenging to unite people with diverse backgrounds, goals, interest and understanding. However, it is very easy to cause division. One hallmark of a true leader is that he or she is not easily carried away by comments or selfish actions of the team he or she is leading, as the group goal is uppermost in his or her heart. Another person who could not stand God’s church being broken into camps was Paul. In His days, converts began to break into at least four different camps right in the church in Corinth but with wisdom, Paul resolved this and unified Christ’s church. Are you instrumental to the division of God’s church? You are calling for God’s judgement. Repent and restitute. Go and meet the people you sowed those seeds of discord into and compel them to reverse their rebellious acts. This will be good evidence of your repentance.

A body that is dismembered cannot operate as whole. A part of the body can never be whole. Division limits us. Strive for peace and unity.

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty

THE CHOSEN ONES

Mark 1:16, “Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.”

MT. 4:13-22; MK. 1:16-20; LK. 5:27; JN. 5:38

Jesus never chose an apostle from among the religious system. Every one of his twelve disciples were men that He chose from the secular world. It wasn’t because God didn’t have faith in those who were religious. It’s just that most of those who were part of the religious system didn’t have any faith in God.

One of the most common mistakes religious people make is to put faith in themselves. They think God will use them because of their great holiness or special abilities.

Paul said, “But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are” (1 Cor. 1:27-28).

People who recognize their own inabilities are of necessity more dependent on God. That is the way God wants it. The Lord is constantly searching for someone who recognizes they are nothing so He can do something through them (2 Ch. 16:9).

Instead of thinking of your responsibilities, just respond to His ability
