There's no flesh or blood within this cloak to kill. There's only an idea, and ideas are bulletproof.

"Biafra" is an idea so many Igbos have come to believe in; not just the angry young men chanting songs. People may not agree with their methods but they agree with the idea; the idea that the region will fare better on its own.

You can kill the men but you cannot kill an idea.

@olaolusofowora The fear of God........we believers need more of it

[Gadites Official @GaditesOfficial]

HAVE YOU LISTENED TO THE LAST GADITES MEETING MESSAGE? 🤓

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge..." Proverbs 1:7

As believers, the fear of the Lord ought to increase in our hearts day by day, for Godly fear helps to purge the nature of sin from our souls.

[Ekaji @ekajiibe]

We need more godly men. Not more men that know ‘game’ or are grounded in red pill, not just more materially successful men. We desperately need fathers, brothers, friends, young men that truly revere the living God. The absence of this has cost us so much already as a society.

Addiction is proof that you are capable of intense devotion. You just have a false god

[dele osunmakinde @deleosunmakinde]

There is a rising pressure in this generation. A pressure to “do something for God.” A pressure to “start something.” A pressure to “not waste your anointing.” A pressure to “step out before it is too late.”

And for many, that pressure is not coming from the Holy Spirit. It is coming from comparison, from expectations, from platforms, from voices that equate visibility with calling.

Let this be settled.
Not every believer is called to start a ministry.
Not every anointing is for pioneering.

Not every grace is for building a platform.
Some are called to be planted. Deeply planted. Faithfully planted. Quietly growing. Strongly rooted in a local church, serving, building, strengthening, and maturing within a body.
And that is not lesser.
That is biblical.

In 1 Corinthians 12, the Scripture says God sets members in the body as it pleases Him. Not as pressure dictates. Not as trends demand. Not as people suggest. As it pleases Him.

That means your place is not discovered by pressure. It is discovered by divine placement.
And when God places you, He sustains you.
But when pressure pushes you, you will spend years trying to sustain what God never started.

This is where many are exhausted today. They started something out of excitement, expectation, or persuasion, and now they are carrying a weight that grace never authorised. They are building without clarity. Leading without conviction. Labouring without peace.
Because they responded to pressure, not to calling.

Let us bring Scripture into this.
In Acts 13, Paul and Barnabas were not roaming around looking for where to start a ministry. They were in a local church. They were serving. They were part of a leadership community. Then the Holy Spirit spoke and said, “Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.”

Notice this.

They did not appoint themselves.
They were not pressured into starting something.
They were not compared into ministry.
They were not shamed into stepping out.

The Spirit spoke.

The church discerned.
Hands were laid.
They were released.
There was clarity.
There was witness.
There was alignment.
There was no confusion.

If God is calling you to start something, you will not need ten voices pushing you into it. There will be a deep persuasion within. There will be alignment in your spirit. There will be confirmation through Scripture, through godly counsel, and through the witness of the Spirit. It may be stretching, but it will not be confusing. It may require faith, but it will not require you to violate your peace.

God does not lead His people by harassment.
God does not guide His children by anxiety.
God does not reveal calling through intimidation.
The Spirit leads.

Now hear this clearly.
Honour is not slavery.
Submission is not the suspension of discernment.
Loyalty is not the abandonment of divine conviction.

You can respect leaders, receive from them, learn from them, and still not obey every suggestion they make about your life. A leader can see potential in you and still be wrong about your assignment. A pastor can desire expansion and still misplace people in roles they were not called to carry.

You must not convert someone else’s excitement about you into God’s instruction for you.
Your calling is not decided by who believes in you the most.

Your assignment is not determined by who is most persuasive.
Your ministry is not born because people say, “You can do it.”
It is born because God said, “This is what I have called you to do.”
And until that is clear, remain where God has planted you.

There is no shame in staying planted.
There is no shame in growing quietly.
There is no shame in serving faithfully.
There is no shame in saying no to opportunities that do not align with your conviction.

In fact, it takes maturity to remain where God is feeding you when there is pressure to prove something elsewhere.

Also, Christians who seek to honour Christ don't cohabit. They don't put themselves in a place where they can be tempted. Plus, they know that premarital sex is a sin. Like, until you're married, you're not married, even if your wedding is one day away. They know that our God, who is all-wise, wants our best and would have legitimized fornication if it is required for a successful marriage.

Christians who honour Jesus give NO PLACE to the devil. Cohabiting gives PLACE to the devil.

DICTIONARY. Cohabiting:
Share living quarters; usually said of people who are not married and live together as a couple.
