THIS IS WHY MANY MEN OF GOD THAT WERE PREACHING HOLINESS MESSAGES IN SCRIPTURE UNION THOSE DAYS LATER JOINED FALSE PROPHETS...

If you want to be among those that will stand for righteousness in a time like this and you don't love praying, you are in serious problems...

Because Satan will fight you, to make sure your voice is not heard...

He will use men and women...
He will use your fellow pastors and members...

He will do everything possible to see that you remain in your village with that your burden for revival ...

Maybe you don't know how much Satan is afraid of you more than many people that are known all over the world...

You have less than 30 committed members, yet, he is afraid of you more than he is afraid of those with 10 thousand members...

He knows what your ministry is doing to his kingdom...

And he knows how much harm you will cause him when you get better than you are now...

Trust me, this morning, Satan rose up trembling, because he knows that you are preparing to mess him up in our time...

He has released more wicked demons to fight your marriage and finances...

That is why he has stolen your prayer life...
So, that, by negligence, you would have partnered with him to keep you in the same level...

There is a threat over any end time army...
There are serious demonic programs hanging on your head...

Satan wants to make sure you will never recover from his attacks against you...

If only you see how many people that hates you with passion...

Not because you are dragging anything with them...

But because you are still crying the cry they have abandoned long ago...

That is why I don't know why a young man should be looking for pulpits now when there are battles he has not conquered yet in the place of prayer ...

If only you know how Satan is planning to make sure your voice is silenced, you will stop looking for number of likes and comments on facebook and go inside and hold God...

Carnality breeds calamity...

When you see an army fighting an army in the same side, check it, someone has opened the door for Satan to attack him with greed or bitterness...

We already have a lot of war we are fighting against Satan... To make sure none of us is heard...

To make sure the fire of truth is quenched in our time...

He is fighting us from all sides of life..
Why will you add to the fights a genuine man of God is fighting in this end time?...

Instead of you to encourage someone you know is still standing in a time like this, why are you adding to the demonic onslaught against him?....

Who are you working for MA?..

How are you allowing your personal hatred for that church to overgrow the Kingdom agenda playing out there? ..

If that man of God parks and leave ministry, what will you gain?.. .

I am talking to you sir...

Go inside and pray...

What is fighting you is more than you know...

Many people have cried for revival more than you that ended their lives in the backside of life...

They could not do much for their generation, because they were defeated by powers afraid of the truth in their mouth...

If you love television too much at this level you are in trouble now...

You need to go for deliverance...

If you love sleep so much this time, it is not ordinary...

You need prayers...

Satan cannot be fighting you and you will be sleeping the way you sleep...

Your tears for revival has made you an enemy to Satan...

Your passion for truth has set you up...

If there is any time to abandon the place of prayer, sir, it is not now...

And it will not be anytime soon...

People that wants you to join them to start preaching convenience messages are too many...

Those that wants you to be frustrated in life, so that you will join them to bow to Baal are a lot...

Where are all those guys that started preaching holiness in the early 90s?....

Where are some of those boys and girls that were once members of Scripture Union, Nigeria, invading villages, wrecking kingdoms that are not of God?...

Where are those of them who use to preach without their eyes on honouraium?...

Where are some of them who will look at you and tell you to repent even if you like, don't come to their churches again?...

Friends, it is heart breaking to tell you that we have lost many of those guys...

They have bowed to Baal...

Now they are even the ones assisting younger ministers to sell their souls to Satan, for money and crowd...

Don't condemn them yet until you know the amount of demons that fought them ...

They are our brothers that were conquered ...

They were victims of the love of God in their hearts and the truth on their lips...

They got tired in the place of prayer and Satan struck them into spiritual comatose...

Though, today, some of them are coming back in genuine repentance...

But the truth is still that many of them are still singing the Lords song in a strange land today...

If you can't pray, leave this cause...

If you don't want to live a prayerful life, make sure you don't preach truth in that church...

Because demons will fight you...

They will fight your health...
They will fight your finances...
They will fight your spiritual life...
They will fight your members...

They will fight your testimony...
They will fight your finances...

Trust me, this fight is already on now...

If you go to sleep, you will lose...

Some of us have made a vow..

We have told Satan that no matter what he brings up today, tomorrow, or next, we will never back off from this cry...

Scandals, hunger, heartbreak, loneliness...
Betrayals, lack, etc will only encourage us the more...

If we have nothing he is afraid of, he will not be fighting us...

If we were like every other preacher that went to Bible school, he will not be fighting night and day to use people to quench the fire in our hearts...

If he is not afraid of this thing we are carrying, he won't even know that we are around...

We refuse to join the lists of men of God in our time Satan is not fighting...

7000 men of God with the hunger for revival, yet, they went to hide in the house of Obadiah...

They know the truth, but they were afraid of being heard...

No wonder, Jezebel held the land sway...

Thank God for Elijah who doesn't care about what people would say about him...

They said he was running a criticism ministry..
Some said he was looking for cheap popularity...

Some said he was envying those doing better than him...

But he never cared...
He separated himself in the place of prayer and intercession, with groaning that cannot be uttered...

He raised a voice...

And it pleased God to find his voice worthy to use to interrupt Hell in such a time...

And Baal was disgraced....

It is time to go back to pray sir...

If not, what is fighting the fire of truth in your mouth will swallow you...

Don't forget that many that cried for revival more than you are crying now have been hijacked...

Maybe nobody told them what God is using me to tell you now...

I pray for you...

May God revive your payer life...

We have started well sir...

To the glory of God, all of us will also end well...

In Jesus mighty Name...

Let us pray!

~ Apostle Iyke Oriaku

My junior brother got married last 2 month and he was arr£sted last two weeks by the man who was marrying the girl before

Atanda, the case has been taken to C0urt and my lawyer friend is telling me that my brother is liable to 5 yrs impriis0nment just because he got married.

How person go enta priis0n cos e marry?

My Reply;

Hmmm, your brother may end up in pris0n if he is guiilty of any of the 0ff£nces listed below by Atanda

1. As a single brother or sister, pls before you agree to marry anyone pls do some research to confirm that the person you want to marry is not by any chance married to someone else and has not officially div0rce the person before leaving them.

Because, if u Marry someone dat seperate from her husband or wife but not officially div0rced.
Haaaaa, you may end up eating free beans for 5 yrs with free accomodation 😂,

2. Oga, you married your wife legally then u now see another girl with standing breasts, shaking like kaduna fresh tomato.

Chai u com reason say as a sharp man, if i Marry dis girl traditionally ehn, the law no go fit do anything base on say i no carry am go c0urt.
Hmmmmmmm ....i pity u sir.
Ur village ppu are about to send you on pilgrimage to eat Free beans for 5 yrs.

3. Ehen, aunty pls come closer Atanda don remember you.
Because say your past dey rough, you com dey hide some thing's from the man wey wan marry u base on say if e know some of your past ehn..e fit no gree to marry u again.
After marriage, if that man later go hear the truth about those things wey u lie about.
Haaaaaa
Na just 2 yrs free beans and free accomodation for you...e no plenty at all

4. You marry your first wife traditionally which is g0vern£d by customary Law, instead wey u go stay dat lane and marry more wife traditionally.

Ignorance of the law is not an excuse

An old man meets a young man who asks:
“Do you remember me?”
And the old man says no. Then the young man tells him he was his student, And the teacher asks:
“What do you do, what do you do in life?”
The young man answers:
“Well, I became a teacher.”
“ah, how good, like me?” Asks the old man.
“Well, yes. In fact, I became a teacher because you inspired me to be like you.”
The old man, curious, asks the young man at what time he decided to become a teacher. And the young man tells him the following story:
“One day, a friend of mine, also a student, came in with a nice new watch, and I decided I wanted it.
I stole it, I took it out of his pocket.
Shortly after, my friend noticed the his watch was missing and immediately complained to our teacher, who was you.
Then you addressed the class saying, ‘This student’s watch was stolen during classes today. Whoever stole it, please return it.’
I didn’t give it back because I didn’t want to.
You closed the door and told us all to stand up and form a circle.
You were going to search our pockets one by one until the watch was found.
However, you told us to close our eyes, because you would only look for his watch if we all had our eyes closed.
We did as instructed.
You went from pocket to pocket, and when you went through my pocket, you found the watch and took it. You kept searching everyone’s pockets, and when you were done you said ‘open your eyes. We have the watch.’
You didn’t tell on me and you never mentioned the episode. You never said who stole the watch either. That day you saved my dignity forever. It was the most shameful day of my life.
But this is also the day I decided not to become a thief, a bad person, etc. You never said anything, nor did you even scold me or take me aside to give me a moral lesson.
I received your message clearly.
Thanks to you, I understood what a real educator needs to do.
Do you remember this episode, professor?
The old professor answered, ‘Yes, I remember the situation with the stolen watch, which I was looking for in everyone’s pocket. I didn’t remember you, because I also closed my eyes while looking.’
This is the essence of teaching:
If to correct you must humiliate; you don’t know how to teach “

*100* *YEARS* *FROM* *NOW* *!* *!* *!*

100 years from now will be the year 2124.
By then, every single reader of this piece will be underground, our bodies having become part of the soil.
During that time, our fate in respect to paradise or hell would have been made known to us.

Meanwhile above the soil, our houses that were left behind would have become either homes for others or demolished for better structures. Our clothes would have become destroyed or rags for others and replaced by more recent trends; our cars will be on display as historical artifacts by others or recycled for more advanced technology.

But for us, we will be, for the most part, never thought about by anyone again.

Think of it, how often do you think about your great grandfather? How often does your great grandmother cross your mind?.

You see!

Our presence here on earth today, that presence that we make so much noise about and shed so many tears for, was preceded by countless generations before us and shall be followed by countless generations after us.

Every generation that passes through this world barely finds the time to take a glance at the world, before needing to bid it farewell and handing over the baton, having not fulfilled even a fraction of their ambitions.

Our lives are, in reality, far shorter than we imagine.

In 2124, every one of us will realise from within the grave just how worthless this world actually was, and how trivial those dreams were that we centred on.

In 2124, every one of us will be wishing that we had dedicated our lives to great matters of God, doing His bid, and devoted ourselves to doing good deeds, particularly those that continue to benefit us after our death.

In 2124, some reading this piece will be screaming out, but in vain:
“Lord return me! Give me another chance, so that I may have another opportunity to live for you ..”
The response to this request, however, shall be:
“No! and behind them is now a barrier until that Great Day."

In 2124, many will be in regret, saying:
“I wish that I had prepared for life after my journey on earth.

Let us reappraise ourselves, for surely what happened to those we talk of, heard of and read of will surely happen to us. Let us take advantage of today while it is called TODAY.

Tomorrow is not yours until it comes. And keeping our faith in God is the ONLY way out.

I hereby humbly appeal to everyone who is touched by this message to use this opportunity to share this important message to your contacts as part of your personal evangelism.
And live your life on this planet earth wisely.
May the Almighty God help us.

*The million dollar question:* Where will you spend your ETERNITY...?

Again, please send this to many groups you have access to for general awareness and as a reminder, because many people are *NOW* living as if *HEAVEN* *and* *HELL* are *not* *REAL* .

Thanks for helping a soul to make *HEAVEN* at Last.Shalom!🩸❣️❤️❤‍🩹💞

In my office, I receive more than 1,000 letters and mails every month.
All these letters and mails pass through my hands.

I stay awake almost all nights reading and responding.

After my promotion, I had to move into a new office and take over some special duties in addition to my schedule of duties.

In the new office, I saw letters that were dumped somewhere. No one has touched or open the letters nor read the letters

I wondered how the letters got there.

The envelopes used for the letters were very dusty. About nineteen letters from the same person.

It has same name.

Same phone number.

Same address.

Same request.

And same handwriting.

When our cleaners wanted to dispose them, I stopped him and requested him to bring them to me.

I opened and read one.

It was a letter written to the accounts and finance department of our company by a labourer in November 2019.

The letter was a request.

The worker was humbly requesting the head of accounts department to pay him, his salary that he is critically sick and needs the money for urgent treatment. In the letter, he stated that he had hepatitis which affected his liver.

I read the second letter. It was the same request. Looking at the letter, one will know that it was written in tears. The drops of tears were still visible on it, since the letter was inserted in an envelope.

I read the third letter and saw the same thing.

I read the fourth letter, it was still the same request.

He has been writing and sending in letters since November 2019 and the last letter was written on 10 August 2020, in which the writer stated that the accounts department should have mercy on him and his family and unblock his line and answer his calls.

It was confusing.

Who blocks people's lines here?

I decided to call.

I used my phone and dialed the number on one of the letters, which was the last letter written on 10 August 2020.

It ranged.

No one picked.

I redialed it.

It ranged again.

Someone picked.

I spoke first.

“Hello,” I said, “Good afternoon.”

“Good afternoon.” a female voice answered. It was the voice of a middle aged woman.

I told her my name and where I was calling from.

She kept quiet.

I told her that I am calling to speak with the person who bears the name on the letters.

She started sobbing over the phone.

“He is lying down here.” She cried.

“Who?” I asked to reaffirm.

“The person you want to speak with.”

“Can I speak with him, please?”

“He can't talk anymore. He is only breathing. He can't move. He doesn't even know that someone is sitting beside him. I am his wife. We have been writing letters and calling but you people said we should not disturb you anymore. Our lines were blocked. His money was withheld. We sent people to you people's office but they came back with nothing.” She cried, “We are just waiting for him to go and rest.”

I couldn't say a word.

I was just dropping tears because of the way she spoke.
She continued.

“He is dying day by day. The person receiving our calls and letters threatened us not to write or call again. My husband have been a worker in you people's company for more than seven years. He laboured there. He worked as if the work was his life. He didn't miss any day even when he was sick. But see how he has been abandoned. What has he done to deserve this treatment? God sees everything. We have been going around to ask for money but no one wants to help. We have to leave town and return to the village. No money to treat him. No money to eat. No money to pay rent. I spent my business money and nothing...” She sobbed.

I guess there was an error somewhere. Maybe something I am not aware of. The company I work for are not known for this narrative.

I asked her their village and home address. She told me.

I went to the village. It is a village between Osino and Begoro. I lost my way several times before getting to their house.

I saw the man. He was lying down on a mat in front of their house. The wife was sitting next to him on the mat. She was chasing flies around him. She just finished cleaning him up in front of their house.
He was looking dried and tired.
No emotion.
No movement.
He can't talk.
He can't hear.
His eyes were just opened, eye balls were merely rotating.

He is a middle aged man. At his early fifties. The sickness have taken the greater part of him and has left him dropping tears bit by bit which his wife constantly cleaned. I guess he noticed that a stranger was around.

I didn't know him when he was working with us. I did not think it was only the sickness his wife told me that brought him down to this state. What I saw was more than liver disease.

His wife in tears spoke to me saying;
“Even if he dies today, I am already comforted. He needs to go and rest. He has suffered a lot. Maybe, I will join him later. I have nothing else. I just came to this world to bury people I love.” I left there with tears and heavy heart.

On getting home, I sent foodstuffs and beverages from my house to them because I had no money with me.

As I got to work next day, I told my boss about the man. I also met the head of accounts department concerning the sick man. To my dismayed, the head of accounts department have been approving the man's salary every month non stop but the accountant in charge of payment was not sending the money to him, since he noticed he was not coming to ask for it. The accountant was embezzling the money. Sadly enough, the accountant was also close to the man, so the letters and calls were going directly to him. The sick man and his wife trusted him and they were using him as a middle man to reach the head of accounts on their behalf. My pain arose more when I found out they were even from the same community.

He has been signing and collecting the man's money for about two years now without delivering the money to the sick man.

He was arrested and charged.
He payed off the money in a day from his life savings.
He was then suspended.
But I have made an enemy.
An enemy that doesn't know that he is an enemy of himself.

Two of our Directors visited the sick man and his wife. They arranged for him to be taken to the hospital for better treatments. He was admitted into the hospital last weekend for better treatments.

This morning.
I received a call.
It was the man's wife.
Her voice choked on the phone.
She was sobbing.
Bitterly.
She then spoke.
“Thank you so much. Thank you so much for fighting for my husband. Thank you so much for your efforts. At least I heard his voice again. He smiled at me. Now that I am speaking with you sir, he is gone to be with the Lord. God bless you, sir.”

MY TAKE: Who are you sitting on his/her salary, progress etc.

Who are you assassinating his character, because you're envious of him?

This speaks volumes about who we are, as individuals. The problem is not all about the President, Governors or government but all as a people. Some are more wicked than the devil himself. The change needed must begin with individual.

You Can't Be My Pastor And Be Perfect, You Got To Have Some Flaws. You Keep Showing New Clothes And Not Your Wounds
~|| Bishop T.D Jakes
----
The receipt of our authenticity of His Lordship is not in His crown, it is not in the 10,000 angels He could have called from Heaven. The receipt of our authenticity of His Lordship is in His wounds.

Thomas didn't say unless I see His crown, unless I see angels all around Him, I would believe Him. Unless I see Him walk on water, I would believe Him. But Thomas required the receipt of the things He has survived. Jesus you see, has appeared in fresh garment but old scars. He does not have on His grave clothes, that would have been some level of evidence but Jesus has changed His garment. In other word, He doesn't look like what He has been through.

There are people that don't look like what they have been through.
*They got fresh garment, but they got no wounds..
*They got nice clothes but they have no wounds..
And they don't look like what they have been through and they wounder why people done believe in you. I will never believe in you, as long as you don't show me your wounds.. I will only believe in you, when you got the courage to be transparent enough to show me your wounds. Because your wounds are the receipt that becomes evidence that build faith.

So the problem with most of us, preacher in particular, we have difficulty of being effective in ministry because we keep showing new clothes but we don't have the power to show our wounds. No receipt, no respect!

I don't respect anybody that don't have receipts.
I don't respect a friend that does not have receipts.
If you got no wounds, I got no time. If you have not been through anything, don't try talking to me.

You can't be my pastor and be perfect. You got to have some flaws because I can't relate with perfect people. I got to have somebody who have been through the fire, broken sometimes, down sometimes, cry sometimes....you know what am saying!

No receipt, no respect!

The man that developed WhatsApp worked in Yahoo, later left, and went to Twitter for job, they rejected him.
He later developed WhatsApp and sold it for $19 billion.

In 1997, after Google was set up, the founders approached the C.E.O of Yahoo to buy Google for $1 million, because they were not making profit.

Yahoo Inc. refused to buy, stating that it is a bad investment to buy Google for $1 million.
Six years later in 2002, Yahoo tried to purchase Google for $3 billion, but Google founders refused to sell, because they were already making progress.

In 2014, (six years ago), Google was worth $395 billion, while Yahoo was worth $39 billion - roughly 10% of Google's worth.

Can you imagine what could have happened if Yahoo had bought Google for $1 million in 1997?
Or if they had bought it for $3 billion in 2002?

Moral Lesson:
In the beginning, things might seem to be difficult, but do not despise your little beginnings.

You may face rejections, but do not despair.
You may be belittled, but don't undervalue yourself.
Don't settle for less!

Don't sell yourself less than your worth!
You may be potentially worth more than your buyer!

Sometimes, our greatest problem is not our weakness, but the strength we have not discovered.

No matter your current challenge, don't shortchange yourself for less.
Even this will pass away.

Trouble will always pass away.
I am here to tell you that your problem is not real.
What is real is that you are worth more than you are currently being valued.

The fact that you have some imperfection doesn't mean your are less valuable.

A day is coming soon, when those you ran to for help, but refused will come into your light and even benefit from you that they discarded sometimes back.

No verdict on your life is final, except the one God pronounces on you.

Don't give up on your dreams, soon it will speak for you, stay lifted in Christ.

A husband said to his wife: I miss my family, I hope you will prepare lunch tomorrow, so I can invite them, it's been a while.

The wife said with a sigh: God willing, it will be good.

The husband said: OK, I will invite them.

The next morning, the husband went to work and at one o'clock he came home, and said to his wife: Did you cook lunch? My family will come in an hour.

And the wife said: No, I did not cook, because your family are not strangers, they can eat what is in the house.

The husband said: God forgive you! Why didn't you tell me yesterday that you won't cook and they will soon be arriving, what will I do?😒

The wife said: Call them and apologize to them, after all, they are not strangers.

The husband left the house upset and after a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. The wife got up, opened the door and was surprised to see her family, brothers, sisters and children!

Her father asked her, "Where is your husband?"

She said to him: He left a while ago.

Her father said, "Yesterday, your husband invited us for lunch. Is it possible for him to invite us and leave the house?"

The wife was stunned by the news, and began rubbing her hands, puzzled that the food in the house was not befitting for her family. She called her husband and said to him: Why didn't you tell me that you intended to invite my family for lunch?

He said to her: My family is your family, and yours is mine. There's no difference.

She said to him: Please bring ready-made food with you when coming, there is no food at home.

The husband said: I am very far from home and your family are not strangers, feed them from the food in the house as you wanted to feed my family.
