A Christian brother travelled to the UK, he disembarked from the plane to discover his international passport with 5 years visa had been stolen or missing. He complained to the officials, they tried everything they could for him. The document was not found. He was returned to
Nigeria.
People started shouting “Village people”. About six pastors and even the ones he knew in the UK before traveling to Nigeria all saw the hand of the enemy. This brother started moving from one pastor to the other seeking a solution to the “village people” after him. His
younger sister brought him to one of our programmes
He told me everything
I asked him if he was a born again Christian
He said yes
What do you do in the UK
He said he was a barber and he had a thriving practice
Where do you live?
He mentioned the location, he said he was sharing
Accommodation with about 20 other people
They all troop out to work during the day and come in late at night to sleep and troop out again
Some of the guys living with him are into drug, some into fraud etc
I started laughing
I asked him if he had called any of those guys since he
got deported
He said no
I asked why?
He said he didn’t want everybody to know he was in a jam
I said please call one of them
This was in 2018 June!
He had been in the UK since 1998 and only came to Nigeria in 2018 to celebrate his mother’s 70th Birthday.
He placed the call, the
Person that picked filled him in about a police raid that happened in their house three days after the day he was supposed to have returned to the UK
The police and other agencies went to raid their house in the middle of the night and everyone was in jail
The brother couldn’t
Close his mouth
He was just stammering
Many so called pastors are wired to pronounce negative stuff and project fear and evil
If indeed God is your father, he could subject you to a minor inconvenience in order to preserve you from a huge mess!
The brother’s passport was found
and mailed to him in Nigeria by an air hostess
He eventually married the lady last year and they are both living in the USA now.
None of those “village people announcers” saw that coming!
When you’re in Christ, you either walk in the light or you walk in denial of the light!

He started the church by the divine instruction of the Holy Spirit
He was a young government official posted to a farm settlement at the time as an agric extension officer at the time
The morning devotion he held at home every morning with his wife and children became a house
fellowship when one of their neighbour's lost a child in the middle of the night and was carrying the child off to be buried early in the morning
As soon as the dead baby was carried through the passageway where his sitting room was located, the dead baby stirred in the sack
That miracle brought neighbours in his immediate location thronging to his house every morning
Soon, the fellowship became a church
Several strange cases were brought to him by people seeking supernatural help, the power of the Holy Spirit was present with him to heal and deliver

She insisted she did everything she did for love
She said "If i was as wicked as many are claiming now, I could have used the opportunities I have to help myself, to make some money, to travel abroad, to achieve great feats but I didn't. All I did was defend my territory, all I
did was protect my turf from being invaded by strangers
All I did was fight to keep what was mine"
She was in her later fifties when her children dragged her to the office of the brother in Jeans and T-shirt. She had five children, four boys and one girl
Her first son, 43, had
been married for 13 years without a child, her second son 40, had been married for 15 years without a child, her third child 38, had been married for 10 years without a child, her only daughter 36, was not married and the last child 34 had been married for two years without a

His mother was an amazon
A woman of many talents and abilities
His mother woke up as early at 4AM every day and she was always the last to sleep
His mother raised the children all by herself
Their father, a teacher, got tired of living from hands to mouth and decided to seek
greener pastures abroad
That was how his mother was left with seven children to raise by herself
His mother, also a teacher, combined catering and petty trade to her work
All the children learned how to knead the dough and assist in making snacks every day after school and every
weekend
They were trained to be industrious
To be self-sufficient and never to beg for anything
As the third child, he learned how to make chin-chin (Mix the flour and fry the chin-chin) at the age of 10
His older sisters started helping out at the age of 8
His mother would often

The mob can always be sold a dummy
They will buy it and defend it with joy
Even when they come to realize they have been sold a dummy
They will stick to their position and insist it was not what it was or blatantly say "So what? At least it is our dummy and we are not complaining
Jesus called it the hour of darkness
That moment when sense, logic, reason, and reality is suspended for an agenda to prevail
When people are determined to place a lie on the throne and hang the truth on a scaffold there was nothing they wouldn't do to make it happen
NOTHING!
Even fools must have their way if we are all going to live in this world together
If only the wise got to make decisions, the fools will feel left out
If the fools felt left out they can incite a riot or throw a spanner into the works for the fun of it
Just so that they can have

December 2019, a renowned evangelist departed this world
A lot of believers started sending goodwill messages
This evangelist to them was the greatest example of Jesus to the world in our time
He never took an offering during his crusades
He shared free Bibles and books
He was a
blessing.
Many told the story of how he negotiated the release of prisoners with state governments and how he ensured that some communities without running water got water
This man of God had been to many nations in Africa preaching the good news and many through him had come to
know Christ
A few days after the evangelist slept in the Lord, a TV station's crew cornered another man of God in America
They met him at the airport and interviewed him
They deliberately asked him questions relating to his private jets and wealthy lifestyle
The TV station had an

If you see a thousand books in the body of Christ about the Believer and The Holy Spirit, 999 of those books will be titled "How to hear from God"
Believers ask that question always "How do I hear from God?"
"How do I know it is not just my thoughts but the Holy Spirit speaking
to me"
The emphasis on hearing from God is a little "off" for a new testament believer
The Holy Spirit is no longer outside of you so that he leads you by words only
He is inside of you and he is a person
This means all your senses are now His to use to his good pleasure
He can
show you a vision or a sight
He can make you perceive a smell, a fragrance or a stench if the sick or the demonic is around you
He can make you feel sensations in your body, a tingling, a burning, a chilling sensation, goose pimples, warmth etc
He can make you hear either audibly
