DeleteBeyond Assumptions!!
ReplyDelete1 John 5:20.
Excerpts!!
"The knowledge that we’ve overcome the world is in our spirits; we’re more than conquerors and victors in Christ Jesus. It doesn't matter how dark and gloomy things get; be unruffled. The knowledge we have and by which we live is beyond the senses."
"Likewise, when we pray, our prayers transcend the arena of assumptions. Our prayers produce results because of our deep and intimate knowledge of the One to whom we pray. Our relationship with Him is based on our knowledge of Him; it transcends religious rituals and formulas."
"Therefore, when we pray about something, it’s because we’re confident that it’s in accordance with the Father's will."
Prayer!!
Dear Father, I thank you for the spirit of wisdom and insight into the deep and intimate knowledge of you. My spirit is alert to discern your promptings, and have a deeper understanding of the mysteries of your kingdom. I grow in grace and in my relationship with you, with a replete knowledge of your perfect will, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Delete*Do Not Put Riches Above God*
ReplyDelete_(Wednesday, 22 November 2023. Read 2 Maccabees 7:1,20-31, Ps. 17:1,5-6,8,15, Luke 19:11-28)_
_*“Antiochus not only appealed to him in words but promised with oaths that he would make him rich and enviable if he would turn from the ways of his fathers. ... While she was still speaking, the young man said, ‘What are you waiting for? I will not obey the king’s command...’” (2 Maccabees 7:24-30)*_
Today, we read the gory account of persecution under the reign of Antiochus Epiphanes. Seven brothers and their mother were arrested for their refusal to partake in idol worship. After the death of the sixth, Antiochus, moved by shame at the boys’ courage, decided to lure the youngest of them with riches and political power. Just as King Antiochus sought to persuade the boy with riches, many young men and women today have sold their souls to the devil, following the mantra: “Get rich or die trying.
_*Saint of the Day:*_ Saint Cecilia. At a very early age, she vowed her virginity to God, but her parents married her off to Valerian of Trastevere. Cecilia told her new husband that an angel accompanied her, but he must be purified to see it. He agreed to the purification and was baptised; returning from the ceremony, he found her in prayer accompanied by a praying angel. The angel placed a crown on each of their heads. Valerian asked the angel a favour: that his brother be baptised. The brothers developed a ministry of giving proper burial to martyred Christians. In turn, they were arrested and martyred. Cecilia buried them at her villa on the Appian Way and was arrested for the action. She was ordered to sacrifice to idols; when she refused, she was suffocated and later beheaded. St. Cecilia is the Patron Saint of musicians, composers, poets, singers and bodily purity.
Let us pray: Almighty, ever-living God, teach me to love you above all things on earth. Free me from the lure of riches, especially if it compromises my faith. Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
*Be Happy. Live Positive. Have Faith. It is well with you. God bless you. (Saint Cecilia, Virgin, Martyr. Bible Study: 2 Maccabees 7:1,20-31, Ps. 17:1,5-6,8,15, Luke 19:11-28).*

ReplyDelete✓KNOW YOURSELF PART FORTY-NINE
WHAT ARE YOUR BEHAVIOURS?
When someone asks you about your behaviors, they are likely interested in understanding how you typically act and interact in various situations. Behaviors encompass a wide range of actions and responses that you demonstrate in your daily life. Here's how you can respond:
1.) Be honest: Share your genuine behaviors without trying to present yourself in a way that is not true to who you are.
2.) Use examples: Provide specific instances where your behaviors were evident to help the person understand you better.
3.) Reflect on different contexts: Behaviors can vary depending on the situation, so be open about how your responses may differ in different scenarios.
4.) Include both positive and negative behaviors: Everyone has a mix of behaviors, so don't be afraid to mention both strengths and areas for improvement.
5.) Emphasize adaptability: Highlight how you adjust your behaviors based on the environment and the people around you.
Example responses:
"I tend to be very organized and structured in my approach to tasks and projects. I create to-do lists and set clear priorities to stay on track."
"When faced with challenges, I try to remain calm and look for practical solutions. I believe in tackling problems rather than dwelling on them."
"In social situations, I'm outgoing and enjoy engaging in conversations with others. I like to make people feel comfortable and valued."
"Sometimes, I can be a bit impatient, especially when things don't go as planned. However, I've been working on being more patient and understanding."
"I adapt my communication style depending on who I'm talking to, whether it's colleagues, friends, or family members, to ensure effective and meaningful interactions."
Behaviors can evolve and change over time, and it's okay to acknowledge areas where you're actively working on improvement. By sharing your behaviors, you provide others with insight into how you navigate the world and interact with those around you.
Thanks for sharing

We ask you lord to be the sources of spiritual and physical strength to all mothers. We pray that the same grace that flowed from Father to Son to us in salvation will flow from mothers to their children in Jesus name 🙏
All mothers shall live to continually see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living and their morning shall know nothing called sorrow in Jesus name 🙏

DeleteSODOMY
ReplyDeleteSodomy is the crime of oral or anal sexual contact or penetration between persons or of sexual intercourse between a person and an animal
Children of God i want to open your eyes to the reality of life. Modernisation has packaged and modernised sin in such a way that it has been generally endorsed and accepted to be good and ok, Even Christians have been decieved by this demonic agenda and conspiracy. The society is now morally bankrupt. Sin is now globally accepted as wokeness, while hardcore Christianity have been hushed down and forced to be become ancient and archaic, making believers to look like extremists.
One of the strongest weapon of the devil in this Christianity eradication agenda is the weapon of consistency, when a sin or evil practice is introduced, they keep pushing and churning it down our throats till we get used to it and it becomes a global thing.
Do not get weak to this evil and luciferian ideology and demonic agenda.
Homosexualism and lesbianism is a sin in the sight of God. All gays will go to hell if they don't repent.
God is not changing his principles because of Modernisation. 1cor 6:9 leviticus 20:13 leviticus 18:22
Even if you started practicing it from a little age, if you don't seek help and come out of it, you will land in hell. Any mother or father accepting this evil ideology is an enabler and you will land in hell for not speaking against it.
The sin of sodomy is an abomination in the sight of God. Leviticus 18:22
The world is globally celebrating gays, the anger of the lord is upon this world.
Judgement day is coming, and it will begin from the house of God.
Many Christians have compromised in there walk with God. Evil has now been exchanged to good Rom 1:25-27
If you are gay please do not accept it that you were born that way, you were created in the image and likeness of God, he did not create you to like your fellow gender, when he mandated us to go into the world and multiply, how then would u multiply in that way you are, eve was created for Adam, if God wanted that, he would have created another Adam, Go for counselling and deliverance to be free.
All you need is JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH.
Flee from this abomination else you will burn in hell when you die.
JESUS LOVES YOU
COME TO JESUS TODAY
ROM 10:10
Say this prayer of salvation
Dear lord jesus, I'm sorry for all my sins, please come into my life, i believe you died on the cross of calvary for me, and on the 3rd day you rose again, please come and be my lord and personal saviour. Please Wash away my sins and bring me into your loving light. Amen

DeleteWHAT DO YOU FEEL?
ReplyDelete'To him who is afflicted, kindness should be shown.' Job 6:14 NKJV
A pastor writes: 'What makes you glad or sad or mad? What puts a holy smile on your face? What causes your spirit to sob uncontrollably? What makes you pound your fist on the table out of righteous indignation? Somewhere in the mixture of that gladness, sadness and madness is your God-ordained passion. Or maybe we should say compassion, because you are feeling what God feels. And once you identify it, doing something about it isn't optional. You can't not do something about it.'
In 2006, Blake Mycoskie was touring Argentina when he noticed that many of the children didn't have shoes. He could have returned to the United States and gone about his business. Instead, he started TOMS shoes, a business with a mission of putting shoes on the feet of children in developing countries. It worked like this: when you bought a pair of TOMS shoes, you were giving a pair of shoes to a barefoot child somewhere. For every pair of shoes purchased, a pair was given away. Their mission was straightforward: one for one. Blake identified a need. He personalised it. And he decided to do something about it. It didn't start out big, it started out small. Yet that is how primal moments begin. A person decides to do something about something that makes him glad or sad or mad. It was barefoot kids who broke Blake's heart. And he literally placed shoes on his faith.
When you discover the thing that makes you glad or sad or mad, the only question left is this: what are you going to do about it?

DeleteWhy are you always looking for perverse videos to watch?
DeleteLet me give you a short story: A professor of psychology started studying about paedophiles and how their minds work. He spent hours in research and studies about paedophilic tendencies. After a while, he became strongly and irresistibly sexually attracted to children. He began molesting the children around him, he was helpless. One day, his wife divorced him when it became a thing of disgrace and she got tired of helping him. It was the late Papa Kenneth Hagin that helped him and his marriage was restored.
I know say you no ask me but you are doing yourself a lot of harm, you have no idea the kind of spirits you are attracting to yourself and what they are doing to your spirit, until you find yourself doing those pervert acts you have been watching

DeleteReno Omokri prays against the wishes of Obedients
ReplyDeleteMay the wishes of Obidients and the prayers of Arise Peoples Party for Nigeria to fail, for our economy to tank and reach an all time low, and for the Naira to crash fail. May God continue to bless all our collective efforts to salvage Nigeria from those who want to savage her because they lost an election or their preferred candidate did not win. May those whose secret agenda is for the break up of Nigeria themselves break apart from their evil partners in secession and division. Finally, may those who see Nigeria as a zoo be zoomed away from any positions of power and authority, along with their fifth columnists in the media. This we pray for Nigeria. And God fearing people say...

DeleteSuck-away OR Soakaway: which is correct?
ReplyDeleteDo you really want to master how to use English fearlessly and flawlessly?
#StayWithME
I came back from work yesterday and my peaceful neighbourhood was enveloped in a very pungent odour.
The stink was overpowering.
I inquired from a neighbour who said that the block of flats next to ours was draining their suck-away pit.
A flash of inspiration and bam, I got content for this grammar class!
📌 Bam (used above) is an interjection used to show that something happened very suddenly or quickly.
Hey buddy! Lemme ask you:
Which is correct: suck-away pit or simply suck away?
Indeed, is it soakaway or soak-away pit?
The correct word is soakaway.
E shock you, abi? 😃😂
Truth be told, it's not SUCK away.
It's not suck-away pit either.
Stop saying or using any of the above expressions.
You won't find suck away or suck-away pit in any reputable dictionary. I challenge you to google them.
SUCK-AWAY pit is therefore a common misuse and flagrant abuse of English.
It's one of those Grammar lies your teachers (society) taught you.
Suck-away is a bit of a misnomer.
Misnomer means a wrong or inaccurate name; a name that's not correct and doesn't suit what it refers to.
As I've already pointed out, the correct word is soakaway.
It's not even soak-away PIT.
Soak-away pit is a tautology.
Soakaway refers to a PIT filled with hard core, into which waste water is piped so that it drains slowly out into the surrounding soil.
Stop saying: suckaway /'sʌkəweɪ/.
Don't even say: soakaway pit.
Simply say: soakaway /ˈsəʊkəweɪ/.
I'm rooting for you 💪
StayWithME 🥰
Thanks
DeleteThanks
DeleteI've always known it's soakaway.
DeleteWeldone, Vicky 👍
Thanks
DeleteI don sabi this one teytey
DeleteThanks Vickie
Thanks. I have known this a long time ago, though. See me "prouding"😂
DeleteI know this one.

Reno Omokri on Yoruba Music
ReplyDeleteMusic of Yoruba origin should be studied as a course in Nigeria’s ivory towers because it has the capacity to not only rapidly change Nigeria’s negative international image, but also to take our economy out of the doldrums by attracting music loving tourists to our nation, the way Rihanna has done in Barbados, and even in death, Bob Marley is doing for Jamaica.
For every decade of Nigeria’s existence as an independent nation, music of Yoruba origin has dominated our country, and now it is conquering the world.
•Bobby Benson dominated the 60s
•Abami Fela Kuti over dominated the 70s
•King Sunny Ade and Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey dominated the 80s
•Sir Shina Peters and King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall dominated the 90s.
•Paul Play Dario shared dominance with a non-Yoruba artist (Tuface Idibia) in the 2000s
•D’Banj, the Koko Master, shared dominance with non-Yoruba artistes (PSquare) in the 2010s
•Davido, Wizkid and Burna Boy (non-Yoruba) dominate in the here and now.
Their female artistes are not left out. Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade, Asa, Simi, Teni, and Seyi Shay dominate locally and internationally with their girl power!
And Yoruba music transcends race and language. It resonates beyond those who die Aj Yoruba. And, again, it is no coincidence that ALL Nigeria's Grammy Award winners are either wholly or partly of Yoruba origin, including:
Sade Adu (1986), Babatunde Olatunji (1991), Sikiru Adepoju (1991) and Seal (1996), Burna Boy (2021), Wizkid (2021), Temilade Openiyi AKA Tems (2023).
How do they do it, that even where they sing wholly or partly in Yoruba, their music is able to crossover locally and internationally?
Christy Essien Igbokwe was quoted as saying she would not have made a breakthrough in the music industry without her anthem, Seun rere, performed entirely in Yoruba.
Throughout the Black world, no other ethnic group has been able to CONSISTENTLY breakthrough in the music industry internationally while singing wholly or partially in their native tongue. I am not saying that some others do not sing in their native tongues. I am saying that they have been unable to crossover internationally while singing in their native language. Rema is brilliant. But he is not projecting Nigerian culture. Pidgin English is not our culture. We need music that projects our culture. Nevertheless, he is still brilliant.
Caribbean reggae artistes sing in English or patois. African American R’nB, Jazz, Soul and rap artistes sing in English. Black Brazilians crossover with Portuguese. Francophone artistes (except for Manu Dibango) crossed over with French. South African artistes crossed over with English (with the exception of Brenda Fassie and Mariam Makeba).
Even the world’s top Francophone female artiste (Angelique Kidjo) did not crossover internationally until she sang in Yoruba.
There is something about that language and the musical genres that the Yoruba have introduced that can permanently put Nigeria on the world map for good.
Nigeria needs to rebrand quickly from our unfortunate and undeserved international reputation for corruption and scams. And the best way to rebrand a country or a corporation is by projecting positive things about that entity that are ALREADY happening. Sadly, our government’s rebranding efforts focus on things they hope will happen.
So, again, I call on universities and research institutes to do thorough research into this phenomenon to identify what makes that sub-sector of the music industry so successful so that already established acts can use that knowledge to further crossover.
Globally, music is a $5 trillion industry. Let us use what we have to corner at least 10% of that bottom line.

ReplyDeleteHello everyone.
ReplyDeleteI want to ask two very important but hypothetical questions? (Money & Relationships)
1. How and when do parents teach their children how to manage money?
2. How and when do parents teach their children about relationships, including marriage relationships?
Please pour in your answers. I am curious to know how different Nigerian backgrounds handle these issues.
Ire oooo
Let me tell you on these
Delete- At the tender age although it's depends on their family income.
- At the she's of five because these children tend to know more about relationships than we do.
My two cents

DeleteIt's very painful when you see a project you can do but your laptop's memory is too small to handle it. A very simple project that will enhance your skillset and improve your life, but you are helpless because midway into the project, your laptop freezes, shuts down and starts again, thereby losting all your work. You can't even save them as you are working because... memory size. I'm tired.
ReplyDeletePlease BVs, is there a way I can increase the size of my laptop's memory, it's a 2GB RAM, I've added another 2GB RAM before but it seems the capacity has been exhausted.
Good morning blog family ❤️❤️ I crush on all mother's,they are worth being celebrated❤️🌹🌹💋💋

ReplyDeleteLagos dispatch riders are something else, nobody is talking about how dispatch riders are killing online businesses.
A consumer ordered some shirts from Ajah to Agbara and dispatch rider is charging 13k
for delivery.
Send the shirts through public transport, then get a rider in Agbara to pick up from the park and deliver to your customer. It would be cheaper
DeleteTo get a rider in Agbara , you can ask for contacts on your market groups or from fellow sellers.
Bonjour Blogfam ♥️
ReplyDeleteHappy WCW ♥️😍

DeleteGood morning my people and thanks for your replies yesterday. I deleted the link. The sender sent another link this morning again, this time around, it was for a supposed grant. I deleted it and blocked the person. It's like he wakes up every morning and sends links to all his contacts, at least one or two will fall mugu.
ReplyDeleteA customer wants to do naming ceremony but she and her hubby are broke, she had an emergency CS which they didn't plan for, it took away their savings. She was now begging us to sew for her on credit, my boss advised her to wear her last Christmas outfit which is still in good shape instead of stressing herself, she refused, she sha wants to wear new cloth on credit. We no gree.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why some women are like this.
Shout out to all women who do according to their capacity.
Happy women crush Wednesday to you all.
Good morning Fam
