WHAT NEXT AFTER CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION?

Image
  I know that Christmas is over, but I've been thinking a lot about the   shepherds in the Christmas story lately. We all know that a host of angels   appeared to the shepherds and told them about the birth of our Lord and   Savior, Jesus Christ. The shepherds were thrilled with the news and told   many others about what they had seen and heard. That impressed me.   But verse 20 is what struck me this year. "Then the shepherds returned,   glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and   seen." (Luke 2:17 NIV) They returned to their sheep and resumed their   former lowly lives, accept for one thing “ they continued "glorifying   and praising God . . ."   A question shot through my mind. What do I do after Christmas? When things   return to normal after the holidays, what do I do with Jesus? Do I wrap   Him up in tissue paper, so to speak, pack Him away and forget about Him   like I do my delicate Tree ornaments? Or do I c

SOMETHING BETTER THAN XMAS!!!

As season approaches, songs, films, and TV programs promote a jolly and exciting holiday mood ​ —the Christmas spirit. What do you think should be the most important element of that spirit? Would it be     * Remembering Jesus Christ?     * Sharing in the joy of giving?     * Helping the needy? Many who celebrate Christmas find it difficult to achieve any of those goals during the holiday season. Christmastime often tends to be hectic, stressful and, above all, commercial. Is cultivating the Christmas spirit ​ —or at least what it is supposed to be— ​ a lost cause? The Bible does encourage all of us to remember Jesus Christ, to be liberal in giving, to help the needy, and to spend time with our families. It also teaches us how to be peaceable. Therefore, rather than discuss why some do not celebrate Christmas, * this series of articles will consider the following questions:     * What do some feel should be the reason for celebrating Christmas?     * Why is it a cha

WHY DID JESUS FOLD THE NAPKIN?

 This is an interesting story .. WHY DID JESUS FOLD THE NAPKIN? This is one I can honestly say I have never seen circulating in the social media; so, if it touches you, you may want to share it. Why did Jesus fold the linen burial cloth after His resurrection? The Gospel of John (20:7) tells us that the napkin, which was placed over the face of Jesus, was not just thrown aside like the grave clothes. The Bible takes an entire verse to tell us that the napkin was neatly folded, and was placed separate from the grave clothes. Early Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance. She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. She said, 'They have taken the Lord's body out of the tomb, and I don't know where they have put him!' Peter and the other disciple ran to the tomb to see. The other disciple outran Peter and got there first. He st

A group of friends visited their old university professor. Conversation soon turned to complaints about 'STRESS' & 'TENSION' in Life. Professor offered them Coffee & returned from kitchen with Coffee in different kinds of cups !!! (Glass Cups, Crystal Cups, Shining Ones, Some Plain Looking, Some Ordinary & Some Expensive Ones......) When all of them had a Cup in Hand, the professor said:- "If you noticed- all the Nice Looking & Expensive Cups are taken up, leaving behind the ordinary ones !! Everyone of you wanted the Best CUPS, & that is the source of your STRESS & TENSION !! What you really wanted was "Coffee", not the "Cup" ! But you still went for the Best Cup. If Life is Coffee ; Then Jobs, Money, Status & Love etc. are the Cups !!! They are just TOOLS to hold and contain Life. Please Don't Let the CUPS Drive you !! Enjoy the COFFEE ......!!! What is life ? They

SIX LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES

SIX LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES TO LEARN FROM AN EAGLE.... 1. Eagles fly Alone and at High Altitudes . They don't fly with sparrows, ravens, and other small birds. MEANING; Stay away from narrow-minded people, those that bring you down. Eagle flies with Eagles. Keep good company. 2. Eagles have an Accurate Vision. They have the ability to focus on something as far as 5km away. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it. MEANING; Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacles and you will succeed. 3. Eagles do not Eat Dead things. They Feed only on Fresh Prey. MEANING; Do not rely on your past success, keep looking for new frontiers to conquer. Leave your past where it belongs, in the past. 4. Eagles Love the Storm. When clouds gather, the eagle gets excited, the eagle uses the storms wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift itself ab

THE POWER OF ERECTION

Image
                                             What Is an Erection? An erection starts in your   brain . Something you saw, felt, smelled, heard, or thought makes your nerves send chemical messages to the blood vessels in your penis. The arteries relax and open up to let more blood to flow in; at the same time, the veins close up. Once blood is in the penis, pressure traps it within the corpora cavernosa. Your penis expands and holds the erection 🌿💫Having an erection is natural but obeying the dictates of your erection is a choice.  🌿💫For every erection, there's a responsibility. Wise men have control over their erection but foolish men obey their erections.😰 🌿💫Any erection not properly controlled is capable of leading one to early grave☠.  🌿💫Unsolicited erection is no respecter of persons.  🌿💫Anointing, righteousness, strength, age etc has no power over erection, only self-control and self discipline can curb an erection.😊 🌿💫Many became usele

THE EVIL CALABASH !

I read this somewhere and found it worth sharing. "Ohun ti o wa ninu igba kii jeki a le gbe  igba lo nigba miran" - meaning what's inside the calabash doesn't allow it to be taken away sometimes! Now THE STORY! Iya Rhoda called me one day and said Ayodele omo mi, I replied yes maami. She said, be strong in character, let your integrity be your navigator, don't fall for cheap blackmail, but above all let love and humility rule your life, because even the devil can not resist LOVE. Ah! Maami kilode? I asked. Then she said, sit down let me tell you this story. "There was a woman who was a witch. This woman was average in wealth but lost her husband which is the major reason she joined the coven. She had only one child who happened to be a girl. This girl was well trained but she retrained herself. She was HUMBLE, LOVABLE, INTELLIGENT and exhibited LOVELY character always. As the practice were, all member of this coven had to at a poin

NO HARD FEELINGS

 A certain guy walked into a hotel and after perusing through the menu, ordered for some food. After about 20 mins a group of guys walked in and ordered for their food too. To the dismay of the guy, these guys got served first. He watched as they began to eat and laugh heartily. He even overheard one of them brag about how he knew everyone at that hotel and how things moved fast for him there. He felt he was being mocked. He contemplated leaving. But he had waited so long. Unable to take it anymore, he called a waiter. The waiter calmly told him: "yours sir is a special order, being prepared by the chief chef himself. Their orders were prepared hurriedly by students on attachment because the top chefs are busy with yours. That's why they came first. Please have some juice as you wait". He calmed down and waited. Shortly after, his meal was served by 6 waiters. Unknown to him, the owner of the hotel (who happened to be an old long lost friend of his) had s

BEAUTY IS SOUL DEEP

Abraham Lincoln loved to tell stories on himself. One of his favorites concerned itself with physical appearance. In the days when Lincoln used to be on the circuit (traveling on horseback from one county court to another), he was once approached by a stranger who said, "Excuse me, sir, but I have an article which belongs to you." "How is that?" Lincoln asked in astonishment. The stranger took a jackknife from his pocket. "This knife," he said "was placed in my hand some years ago, with the injunction that I was to keep it until I found a man homelier-looking than I am myself. I have carried that knife for many years. Now I pass it on to you." Lincoln added wryly, "I've carried that knife ever since." Once when he was accused of being “two-faced,” he replied, “If I had two faces, would I be wearing this one?” One of Lincoln's greatest assets was his ability to laugh at himself and he frequently laughed at his physical app

MARRIAGE IS LIKE A SHOE

Image
MARRIAGE is like a shoe. When you wear oversize be ready to drag it along through out life, and when you wear under-size be ready to feel the pains through out life." One thing about marriage is that you don't drop your shoe or remove it at any point, no matter how painful or how stressful it is. That is why I thought it necessary to write you this letter. Dear Singles, When you are ready to buy your own shoe please take note of these three things: 1. PHYSICAL APPEARANCE     Do not look for the beautiful ones, the nice ones or the cheap ones. Look for the one that is your size. Not every handsome, wealthy or intelligent guy is for you, not every beautiful woman is for you. Look for the one that is meant for you, the one that aligns with your values and beliefs, the one who you meet at your life's journey. It is important to know where you're going in life before you think of getting a wife or a husband. 2.  POSITION:  All sizes of shoes are not

 THIS IS A REVELATION ! I saw a Buried Glory in my dream. In that same dream I prayed for recovery of that Glory till I woke up.So I decided to share it with my friends that believed truly there are  G lories are been B uried. Joseph Glory was Buried the day he narrated his dream to his family and was later sold into slavery to completely nailed his coffin. Then he prayed in that strange land his glory was restored and he became Prime Minister in Egypt. Joseph in his Dream Mordecai Glory was Buried the day he revealed the plot by the evil men to kill the king. Then he prayed King had sleepless night because God remember Mordecai not only that but also the evil counsel of Haman, his wife and friends turned to promotion for him and his Glory was restored. Mordecai was Promoted Samson was another example in the bible whose Glory was buried the day he slept with the strange woman. His destiny was cut off at lap of Delilah which eventually led to his destru

A LESSON FROM ATM

Image
Yesterday I was at the ATM to get some cash because I dearly needed money. As I started to transact, the ATM showed me an inscription which said; Please insert your card. I did And then another message popped up- Please enter your pin code I did And then another message came ...select the amount, I did that too After I had done all this...the ATM showed me a message in BOLD letters YOUR TRANSACTION IS BEING PROCESSED, PLEASE WAIT ! Allow me to say..when you have done all the things you can, you have prayed, you have fasted, you have even asked others to pray with you and for you but it seems as if nothing is happening in your life, wait patiently don't give up, don't move because your request is being processed. WAIT! Let me tell you ..What made me wait is because my card was already in the ATM, I had already entered my pin code. If I give up now and walk away..Lord have Mercy... The next person will get all that I had requested.

DON'T CRITICIZE, CONSTRUCT

Image
 "Try to understand, Dad", the teenager whined, " those hymns at church bore me stiff. They are too far behind the times. The stanzas contain too many old, meaningless words." His father put an end to this complaint which had been voiced before by saying, " If you think you can write better hymns, then why don't you do it? This teen went to his room and began immediately! He wrote his first hymn at 16. And...he continued to write 349 more! Are you feeling bored with life, your community or even the church? Then do something constructive about it. You can contribute something that you would be remembered by 300 years from now, if Jesus tarries. "  Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord . (Colossians 3:16) ©GRACE LIFTED SEGUN EZEKIEL

SILENT PRIDE

Image
SILENT PRIDE 😭😭😭 I have been in ministry for quite some time now,and have taken time to study my life and the life of others. I have studied the scriptures and discovered ONE MAJOR THING that GOD HATES, is PRIDE Ps 40 vs4.😭 PRIDE are in two categories, the VOICED PRIDE and the SILENT PRIDE. I would love you to read this article with all BROKENNESS of heart. Bible clearly stated that *GOD RESIST THE PROUD. James 4vs6 * That's one verse in the Bible I FEAR most. Imagine a MINISTER that GOD is resisting his ministry, Imagine a Person that God is resisting his life. IF GOD is RESISTING you,who can ASSIST YOU? Listen your MINISTRY will never grow more than it is now if you ARE A VICTIM OF GOD'S RESISTANCE. and anyone WHO partners with YOUR MINISTRY will also PARTNER in your MISERY. The worst case of PRIDE is to be PROUD and you don't EVEN KNOW. Hmmmmmmm. SILENT PRIDE. this i see in the LIFE of some persons,especially young Ministers.and I cry. SILE

The saying, according to one, is a rallying call for campus chics to try all they want during their life as university students. Just like many young people, the chics are out to experiment and make all the mistakes within their period in campo before getting out of college and face life with seriousness. Here are four things every campus girl has tried 1.      Mwakenya Cheating in exams is a must for many girls in university. With tricks such as scribbling things on their yummy thighs, hands or hiding a mwaks close to their bust. 2.      Skiving classes This is what leads to thoughts of cheating in exams.

This means classes will be not attended. 3.      Sleepover No campus girl who has never gone for a sleepover to her boyfriend’s
