The Bull and the China Store

“See, everyone knows I get angry easily. I can’t tolerate nonsense and I can’t and won’t pretend to control my temper and my words “

“I’m blunt to a fault so any man that comes must either accept me like this or GDF!”

Anger.
Everyone knew her for this. She could be sweet and kind one minute and the next minute she goes on rampage like a bull in a China shop.

Nothing was delicate with her and nothing was a no go area.

Once she’s angry, bad words, curses, insults were her bullets.
She was well to do and a top professional in her field so she was exposed to men of status.

They would start off with her, endure her for a while and suddenly - Ghosts!

Her relationships never lasted three months. The longest she ever did was one year. The reason?
The man was living abroad and had not tasted her dagger like words until he came to Nigeria for Christmas and saw the fireworks and quietly went back without letting her know.

He proceeded to block her everywhere.

She had it all but no one, not even friends stayed.
Some female would come, pretend, get what they want from her and then disappear.

Anger.

The last time I saw her, she wasn’t looking fresh at all. Bitterness had taken root in her heart and men have stopped coming.

She tried having a child from a random man…
… but the pregnancy never stayed.

It was frustrating.

Anger is a dangerous thing - for men and for women alike.

A while back, Reverend Olaiya was speaking about destructive characters even amongst believers and he spoke on Anger.

It was exposing!
He told us of Levi and Simeon. Brothers who wanted to avenge the dishonour brought to their sister Dinah by one of the Canaanite nobles.

You would recall how they told Hamor that circumcision had to be done before anything could be done about Dinah.

The men of Shechem did so.
Whilst they were recovering from the act, clearly bruised and in pain, Levi and Simeon came and killed all of them.

God never approved of that act because circumcision was not for that purpose.

When Jacob was to bless his children, he skipped Simeon and went to Judah.
Moses was from the lineage of Levi.

His streak of anger was there. When he saw the children of Israel with the golden calf, he smashed the golden calf, ground to powder and made them drink it with water.

Moses had hot anger and it cost him greatly.
In every sphere of life, anger is destructive if not controlled.

Be angry BUT do not sin.

See what Paul said:

“Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.”
Ephesians 4:31 NKJV

See the things surrounding “anger”.
Tonight, we continue with our intercession for our single brothers and sisters and the focus - anger - continues.

When the testimony of the last above is complete, I’ll finish the story.

We would be praying by 10:00PM. This is the link to join the group

Invite someone and even on this altar of fire shall we have breakthrough and deliverance.

God bless you

I laughed so hard because I know his wife. I know her very well and a witch was the last thing she was.

By the Spirit of God, we know witchcraft operations but this wasn’t it.

The Bible kept accounts of genealogy for a reason. Even when the children of Israel completed their 70 years in exile, Ezra who was a copyist kept record of those that returned.

Even Matthew gave account of the genealogy of Jesus Christ.

Origin is important.
So as a Believer when someone whom you know not his origin begins to talk in the nonsense, please ignore.

It’s not every high sounding knowledge that makes sense and it’s not all knowledge we consume no matter who speaks it.
Know the word so that you don’t get fed with chaff.

As the knowledge of God’s word abounds, so shall false doctrines.

Again, know the word.

This morning, grace is multiplied to you.

I will never be a powerless Christian.

Never!

My name alone will cast out devils!
My presence alone will heal the sick!
My voice shall silence the works of darkness.

Evil will never thrive where I am.

So far I’m on this earth, wickedness shall be silenced!
No longer shall sons and daughters cower in fear.

I will never be a Christian that is all talk and no action.

I have been given power to trample over serpents and scorpions.

I handle the Word of God in power and eloquence.

I manifest God’s glory.
The world has not waited in vain.

I am a SON!
I am a LIGHT unto the nations
I am a PROPHET to nations

I am and remain the extension of the days of Jesus.

Again, the world has not waited in vain.

My manifestation has started!!!

“Egbon, I have met the girl of my dreams. I have prayed and actually heard God and i have the go ahead. I have also called my parish Pastor to inform him of my decision”. He said.

I was excited for him. I had met the lady earlier and I saw how excited she made him.

It was good.
He finally went to state his intent after receiving some coaching on how to go about it.

He came back later and told us - 3 of us that he had done the needful but she requested for time to also pray and confirm.

Indeed, it was good.
Three weeks after, she came back and said she heard God and was good to go.

We all thumped him on the shoulder while one of us went into tongues and spoke prophecies.

We held hands and we prayed. I was the only married one there.

He was happy and so were we.

Good it was.

Of Kingdom and Sweet Words

Sometime back when I just got married, a young man brought a young lady to visit with the intent to introduce her as his Beloved.

I was so happy for him and I told him that much.

Then I teased the young lady and asked her how he “toasted” her.
“Sir, don’t mind him o. He just came and told me God said and left me and I also left him waiting because though I heard from God, I felt it was appropriate he wooed me as well.

It was when he saw I wasn’t showing any sign he ask what was wrong that I explained to him”.
He got the message and did justice to the process.

Brothers, don’t just stop at “God said...” and then go cold. You make it look like it’s take it or leave it.

You don’t “choke” God said to a daughter of Zion. For God to bring you her way, He expects more from you.

Papa,

It was one of the editions of EXCEL at TBS as an usher that I met you.

I was assigned to watch your car and ensure folks don’t come and sleep on it.

I recall a young couple who approached me as I stood menacingly with a frown asking if they could pray beside the car.
The reason? They wanted approval for their union but their parents didn’t care if they heard from God.

“Go ahead” I muttered because I understood how parents sometimes use tribal sentiments to frustrate divine arrangements.

They finished and another young man came.
Ah ahn?!

“Please Sir, I have been unemployed for years and I know I won’t have the chance for Daddy to lay hands on me but let me just touch the bonnet and pray”. He finished.

Omo!

Please go ahead but he kuku placed his face on the bonnet praying in tongues.
