A MESSAGE TO NIGERIANS:
Hear this, all Nigerians, both low and high, rich and poor alike: My mouth will speak words of wisdom; the meditation of my heart will give you understanding.
Your level of discipline will never rise above the level of your vision.
The Bible says, “Where there is no vision… the people cast off restraint.” (Proverbs 29:18)
People don’t lack discipline as much as they lack a compelling picture of where they’re going!
Proverbs 14:1-3
The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands.
He who walks in his uprightness fears The LORD, but he who is perverse in his ways despises Him.
In the mouth of a fool is a rod of pride, but the lips of the wise will preserve them.
Proverbs 14:33-34
Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding, but what is in the heart of fools is made known.
Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.
Psalm 80:18-19
Then we will not turn back from You; Revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
Restore us, O LORD GOD of Hosts; Cause Your face to shine, and we shall be saved!
Psalm 80:1-3
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You who dwell between the cherubim, shine forth!
Before Ephraim, Benjamin & Manasseh, stir up Your strength & come and save us!
Restore us, O GOD; Cause Your face to shine, and we shall be saved!
Psalm 80:16-17
It is burned with fire, it is cut down; They perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand. Upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.
