If you opened IG and saw a reel from your Pastor and the reel song was say Asake or Mavo, you'd be shocked abi? No wam
But you make reels using the same set of songs and you're fine.
You expect some level of consecration from your Pastors but you think you're exempted from displaying same level consecration.
If you expect that level of consecration from your Pastors, it also applies to you.
I just saw a video of Shaffy Bello endorsing prostitution for young girls.
This is exactly why God is raising His sons and daughters and giving them influence in this generation not merely to gain followers, but to proclaim His truth in the midst of deception.
God's salvation army won't be intimidated by the chiefest of sinners.
Our Lord is more than able to turn the worst of sinners into the finest of saints.
It doesn't matter how depraved a heart has become, the gospel saves and saves to the uttermost.
So let's learn to boast in God's conquering love and to expect those who claim to have believed to flaunt the Saviour's victory over sin and hell.
Satan's worst attempts to deform mankind will be undone by Christ's redeeming love if we truly present the gospel as God's transforming tool and not another religious lecture.

Yes I’ll admit
That post about Caesarian section triggered me
Because I’m a woman who was in labour for 40 hours
I was given the maximum dose of oxytocin three times to induce labour and did not dilate beyond 2cm
I was so mentally prepared to push out a human but my body just wouldn’t
Which one should I talk about?
The intense pain ripping through me every few minutes?
Should I talk about how excruciating it is to have doctors check you for dilation while you’re actively in labour?
Should I talk about the exhaustion?
Should I talk about how that when those who have vaginal delivery have long forgotten CS moms are still grappling with wounds and pain and numbness and tingling from the anaesthetsia?
I had my baby in Canada and the nurses kept asking me if I wanted a pain relief
I did not want any drug to interfere
I was ready to bear the pain and I did
I think I have the most supportive husband in the world. He stood there every second with me. Holding my hand. Wincing as Pain coursed through me
But he did not feel the pain. Not the physical one.
I did.
So has every woman who has gone through this
When the doctors saw that my contractions were not the “good type”, they said I could get a uterine rupture, I had to be taken for a CS.
And everyday I’m grateful to God for the miracle of a CS
That a mother who has given her all can still have her baby and they both be fine
So sir, when you have had contractions for 40 hours
When you have had 7 layers of your body sliced open so you can bring forth children
When you have gone months nursing a wound that is layers deep
When you’ve been placed on a cold surgical table and cut 7 layers deep
For some 4 times.
Then come back and have this Conversation with me
Thank God for your mother and the long line of women in your family that had vaginal deliveries.
But no two women are the same.
Don’t put that burden on the woman you would marry.
A CS is not a shortcut
A CS does not make a woman weak
A CS does not happen because you did not pray enough or you’re unlucky
A CS is a medical miracle so that women like me especially pre term moms, can come out alive from the mystery that is pregnancy and childbirth
Blessings.
🌱 Seed of Purpose Series – 1
Every human being carries a seed.
A seed of purpose.
A seed of impact.
A seed of destiny placed there by God.
But many people go through life busy, distracted, and unaware that something powerful is already within them.
The tragedy of life is not the absence of purpose.
The tragedy is carrying a seed and never nurturing it.
In this Seed of Purpose Series, I will be sharing short reflections about discovering, nurturing, and manifesting the purpose God placed inside us.
My prayer is that through these reflections, many will begin to recognize the seed within them.

THIS FRIDAY, 6th of March… Baruch Hashem Adonai ft @theophilussunday will be released everywhere!
Tell everyone! Truly prophetic and for such a time as this..
"Marriage is an institution; drop that feminism at the door. When you go out on the road and one man tells you to submit, face him with all the fire in your heart and preach your feminism to him; he deserves it, not your husband."
— Pastor Bisola Badejo
