GOD OF LIGHT & DARKNESS.

The Psalmist wrote: "Clouds & darkness are round about Him: righteousness & judgment are the habitation of His throne."
Psalms 97:2

Imagine that: Clouds & DARKNESS are around God Almighty.
DARKNESS!

When you hear "DARKNESS", what comes to mind...?
🤔
Reading further, you get to Chapter 104: "Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:"
Psalms 104:2

Here, God covers Himself with LIGHT as a garment.

So, God covers himself with LIGHT.
Yet, DARKNESS surrounds Him!
🙄
Scripture records in 1st Kings 8:12: "Then spake Solomon, The Lord said that He would dwell in the THICK DARKNESS."

Same Scripture records: "Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the LIGHT which no man can approach unto..."
-1 Timothy 6:16

Are these not contradictions?
🤷🏾
God is both LIGHT & DARKNESS?
How?
I read these scriptures earlier today.

I asked the Holy Spirit, how do you reconcile these 2 positions?
He said, "It's not about HIM, Harry.
It's about YOU."
How do you mean?

He took me to Genesis.
God, Adam & Eve.
One day, God was LIGHT...
He came to chill with Adam & Eve.
They'd stroll in the Garden, probably hand in hand.
"Eve! How are you doing? Are you pregnant now?" 😉
"Pregnant ke? Not yet o! We're doing family planning! Let's enjoy ourselves 1st, abeg!" 😁
They'd all laugh at the joke.

There was Koinonia...
24 hours later, God came again.
He didn't see the couple!
They had gone into hiding!
The couple that enjoyed sweet Koinonia with God just yesterday are hiding from Him.
The couple that heard His voice yesterday & ran to hug Him are now running away from Him!

What happened?
God had become DARKNESS!
Yesterday, He was LIGHT.
Today, He is DARKNESS.
Did God change over night?
No.
He said, "I am the Lord, I DON'T CHANGE" (Malachi 3:6).

The change is not from God: it's from man.
Something had happened to man's CORE, so his view of God changed.
God will appear as light or darkness, depending on who is looking at Him.
God will appear as light or darkness, depending on the pedestal on which the looker is standing.

How do you see Him, sir?
How do you view Him, ma'am?
Check where you stand: that's what matters.

Shalom.
😇

Bola Tinubu is an interesting character.
He makes his detractors & opponents underestimate him on purpose.

He has this demeanour of a dour sleepy Man with half a brain, but he is FAR from that!
He is a very deep thinker & master strategist.
He always KNOWS what he's doing...
Do you remember the song, "hand dey shake, leg dey shake, Baba wey no well...🎵"?
The Opposition thought he was going senile!

When he presented the 2025 Budget to the National Assembly, he made a Freudian slip (or so we thought): he called them the 11th National Assembly...
I think today y'all should KNOW he was DELIBERATE! He ended his speech with, "That means you are ALL reelected!"

They gave him a standing ovation!
That man ALWAYS KNOWS what he is doing, folks.
Underestimate him at your peril!

He picked Femi Gbajabiamila as his COS...

"Hello? Hello?"
"Yes, how are you, Simi?"
"Good morning, Sir! I am NOT fine Sir!"
"Why?"
"They want to impeach me, Sir! Please, help me Sir!"
"Simi! But I wanted to help you before! I brought you & your HOA Members together to talk & you all signed an agreement, remember...?"
"Yes Sir! I'm sorry, Sir!"
"Why did you renege on the agreement you signed?"
"It's the Devil, Sir! I am sorry, Sir! Help me, Sir!"
"Ok... So how do you want me to help you? You know I'm not a member of your Party: maybe you should call Atiku to help you, Simi..."
"Ha! That one?"
"Yes! Or Bukola or any other PDP member who has held a high office in the Country..."
"No Sir! You're the C-in-C, Sir! Everything ends on your table, Sir! Just help me find soft landing, Sir: these guys have started impeachment proceedings against me, Sir!"
"Yes, I heard..."

"The world is shifting rapidly, & the era of lawless leaders & bullies is upon us.
A GENERATION is being led into CONFUSION, where what is RIGHT is simply what is LOUDEST.

TRUTH is being DROWNED in NOISE & VALUES are being REWRITTEN...
By those who serve SELF, not GOD..."

I've not heard or read a more succint statement in a very long time.

Today, the world believes the more NOISE they make, the EASIER it is for their views to be ACCEPTED by others.

Just as AUCTIONS go to the HIGHEST Bidder...
TRUTH goes to the LOUDEST Noise Maker.

The LGBTQ Community understands this very well, so they make the loudest noise about their Movement, drowning all dissenting voices into oblivion.

It's practically a CRIME today if you choose to insist you will NOT support the Movement!

A father went to pick up his 6 year old boy from school.
He was alarmed when he got to the school to meet his son CRYING!!!
"What happened, son?"
"It's him!!!" The son pointed to his classmate, a big, fat boy!

The father was ANGRY!
He immediately went to see the Head Master...
"I will NOT accept my son being BULLIED in this school! I DEMAND that bully is PUNISHED!"

Head Master smiled.
"You're getting it wrong, Sir. Your son was NOT bullied. Maybe you should ask him why he's crying, Sir."

Woah!

He turned to his son: "What really happened, Son?"
"We sing 'Fatty Bum Bum' to make fun of him! But instead of him to cry, he will start DANCING! Daddy, he shouldn't DANCE! He should CRY We want him to CRY!!!😭😭😭"

The father was SHOCKED!
He had jumped to a WRONG conclusion!
His son wasn't bullied: he was THE Bully!!!

My sister was posted to a Bank for her Service Year.
She was deployed to the 3rd floor of the Headquarters in Marina, Lagos.

One day her boss sent her on an errand to deliver a letter to one of the Directors on the last floor.

She entered the elevator...
Punched in the floor number & went up.
On the 4th floor, some folks came in.
On the 6th floor, the Director she was sent to came in.

Now, she didn't know him, but some of the people in the elevator greeted him.
So she asked, "Are you Mr X?"
"Yes, please?"
"This is for you, Sir!"
She handed him the letter & went back to her desk.
It took her 10 minutes to go & get back.

Her boss was surprised!
"You're back so fast!"
"Yeah: I met him in the elevator, so I gave him the letter!"

What???
How DARE you!
That's DISRESPECTFUL!!!
Oga provoke!

And guess what...?
