In 300 level...

I paid someone to “help” upgrade my cousin’s JAMB score.

It worked.

Everybody celebrated.

My aunt called me a destiny helper.

But every time that girl thanked me.

I felt sick.

Two years later.

She got admission into nursing school and posted her matric pictures online.

That night.
I couldn’t sleep.

The next morning.

I took a bus to Abuja with money I had been saving for a new phone.

I found the man who arranged everything and begged him to reverse it.

He laughed for almost one minute straight.

“Are you born again or what?”

Three months later.

My cousin lost the admission during verification.

My entire family hated me.

Especially her mother.

Then something strange happened.

The following year.

She rewrote JAMB herself.
No expo.

No connection.

She scored higher than before and got admitted again.

The day she called me crying with joy, she said, “This one finally feels like mine.”

I sat in silence after the call.

For the first time in years, my heart rested.

[Doctor Of The Future™ @g_diets_]

If you are a man of forty and above and you are always tired, your problem is not age. It is the plate you are loyal to.

Stop drinking your calories.

The malt
The energy drink
The soft drink chasing your jollof — that is sugar wearing a costume.

Eat eggs in the day, not bread.
Eat meat.
Eat fish

Lift something heavy twice a week.
Sleep before midnight.
Sit in the sun for ten minutes.

The belly is not stubborn. It is fed.

Stop feeding it and watch it lose the argument.

Salt your food.
Drink water.
Stress less — easier said, still true.

The day Sister Goodness delivered her fifth daughter, her husband didn't come to the hospital.

He had been believing God for a son.

When the nurse said "it's a girl," something in him shut down.

He didn't pay the bill. Didn't show up. It took serious intervention before he finally did the needful.

I witnessed all of these.

Sister Goodness was in my church in Uyo, a devoted member.

Every day she was out in the sun hawking zobo and soya milk to keep things moving.

Her husband sold second-hand phones on a small scale.

Some days there was no food at home.

I knew all these because I was close enough to see it.

But she never stopped.

She kept going, kept praying, kept raising those five girls without making noise about her pain.

Last December I went to visit my sister in Uyo and I met with her after one of the Sunday services I attended.

She looked different. Lighter and fresher.

She told me someone she had never met before connected her to a job at the government house.

She's a cook there now.

She said: "I don't even know how it happened. I just know God did it".

I believed every word.

Some people's survival story doesn't make sense on paper. That's how you know God wrote it.

Marriage stuff the church never warned me about:

1. Sex is a skill. It’s a gift from God and It’s worth learning how to do well. Being better at sex (only with your wife) only blesses your marriage. And the “best sex” isn’t what you think. It’s facilitated through intimacy, safety, and love. For the man - this means you need intimacy with the Holy Spirit, first. You need to view your wife as a daughter of the King and love her in way she’s worthy of. You need to die to yourself, serve her, protect her, provide for her financially, emotionally, and spiritually. You need to LEAD her. That typically translates into more frequent, more pleasurable, more intimate sex - which energizes a marriage.

2. Your view of money matters. If all you want is more, you won’t steward it well, you'll still live in comparison to what you want next, and funny enough - you'll probably end op with less of it. On the contrary, if you don’t prioritize increasing your wealth, you’ll miss out on the abundant opportunities God gives you to glorify him through what money can do. Money is a tool. It's a gift God has given you to steward and multiply for his glory (yes you can buy nice things to the glory of God, and you can exhibit financial discipline to the glory of God). Worship him with every dollar you receive, and every dollar you deploy.

3. Pray together every single day, even if you're really tired or you just fought. The divorce rate for the average couple is 50%. The divorce rate for couples that pray together is less than 1%. God hates divorce. Divorce is hell. God can always redeem divorced believers, but avoid it if you can. Establish the basic discipline of praying together every single day. This is more important than brushing your teeth and eating food.

4. Be willing to cut friendships. Especially ones that began before you were married. The two of you have became one flesh. Your dynamic with every human being you interact with has forever changed. Everything you do directly affects your wife, everything she does directly affects you. Have conversations early on about who is no longer welcomed in your life, cut them quickly. And if there are people who simply need to be kept at greater distance, orient your calendars accordingly. Do the same in reverse. The couples who sharpen you, draw near to them, prioritize them. They will be there for both of you in your hardest times. They will fight for your marriage in moments where you offend one another. Your friends matter. And no - your wife cannot have male friends that are not directly friends with you, or vice versa.

5. You are not part of your parent’s family anymore. Non-believers have a harder time with this, but the Bible speaks to it so directly. You are no longer part of your parent’s family. They are now extended family. If your parents have friction with how you live your lives, that’s OK. There is tension between consistently honoring your parents, while being OK if they disagree with you. Bring that tension to the Holy Spirit and ask for his guidance in every interaction, every boundary, and all communication.

6. Marriage isn’t the goal. It’s the beginning of a journey. It’s a common temptation to become complacent in improving yourself after getting married. There’s this mindset of “jobs done! We’ve arrived.” and that’s absolutely hilarious. The most challenging, and most rewarding work begins after you’ve gotten married. This is where you’re now directly cleaved with the person who’s supposed to sharpen you. Then this means men, you need to lead, cast vision, and continually grow. And women, you are the person this man is willing to die for, you’re the person he’s trusting to deliver his child, and nurture his offspring. You’re the primary helper God designed to support his mission. It is your duty as a woman of God to continue to grow. A proverbs 31 woman was not a weak, powerless housewife scrolling Instagram all day. Read it.

7. Set the culture of how you’re going to steward your bodies in the home, early. How you honor the temple of God is such an integral part of your daily life, it impacts sleep schedules, grocery lists, it impacts every single meal, it impacts how you use your time. If there’s not agreement in the home about how you’re going to honor your bodies, it will become an intense point of contention in your day-to-day life. The person with greater health will be burdened with taking care of the one who has worse health. And although some things are not preventable, most prognosis are totally preventable. Don’t burden your partner because you couldn’t stop eating Twinkies and never worked out. Do your part so that you can show up well with them, with energy, presence, and confidence in who God made you. Your health will be the #1 determinant of your quality of life in your later years when grand babies come. Heck - after your relationship with God, it's one of the primary determintants of your quality of life even before grand babies come. And - back to my first point, you want to be able to keep those hips moving as you guys get older 👍

8. Marriage is not a thing you do for mutual benefit. He provides, she makes the home - in practice yes, but that's not the point. The point of marriage is so that you know Christ more deeply. It's a reflection of the most valuable thing in the universe. Eternal life, knowing God. Take that view into every trial, and every mountain top - you work towards an excellent, intimate marriage - to know Christ more deeply, as a testemant and service to his people, and to glorify his Holy name.

Married people, what would you add?

[POJU OYEMADE @pastorpoju]

If you are feeling down and things don't seem to be working, do this.

Get into a room alone, shut the door and begin to declare God's promises out loud speaking forth his blessings and strength into your life.

Do it until your mood changes and then you would have broken the back of a spirit which was trying to put you in bondage.

Repeat this every time a depressing feeling comes on you and sooner than you think it will be a thing of the past and a new season will be born in your life.

I have a friend who has never had sex in his entire life.
He has never dated, and he has kept himself pure for years.
One day he was telling me about his plans to get married, and I looked at him and said something very honest:
"One thing I wish I could undo is the sex I had before marriage."
That statement came from experience.
I was introduced to sex and pornography at a very young age. But at some point I realized something — you cannot blame your past forever. Responsibility eventually becomes personal.
And the truth many people avoid saying is this:
Premarital sex has consequences.
We are naive to think that the moment we receive Christ everything automatically disappears.
Yes, God forgives.
But healing is often a process.
There are memories that stay longer than you expected.
There are attachments that take years to break.
There are patterns that follow you even when you want to change.
Many people carry silent memories.
The emergency pills taken in fear.
The tears of people they hurt.
Relationships built on lust.
Sex that happened without wisdom.
Moments they wish they could erase.
And this applies to both men and women.
Some people assume everything is fine after abortions or broken relationships, but the emotional and spiritual effects of sexual history can remain longer than expected.
The Bible says sexual sin is different because it is a sin against your own body.
Many people don't understand that until years later.
Sex is not just physical.
It connects memory.
It connects emotion.
It connects the mind.
Years later you can suddenly remember someone you slept with.
Sometimes you find yourself comparing your spouse with someone from your past.
Sometimes you battle thoughts you never invited.
Some people cannot stay without sex and end up trapped in pornography and masturbation because their bodies were trained into patterns they never intended.
Healing for me was intentional.
I had to face my past honestly.
I had to pray.
I had to break emotional ties.
I had to renew my mind daily.
It took time.
It took discipline.
It took therapy.
It took prayer.
And slowly, healing came.
Today when I tell young people to avoid sex before marriage, it is not theory.
It is experience.
Purity is not foolishness.
Waiting is not weakness.
Self-control is not backwardness.
The world presents sex as casual, but the effects are rarely casual.
Some experiences stay in your memory longer than expected.
Some attachments take years to break.
Some patterns follow you into marriage.
If you are still pure, protect it.
Don't let anyone make you feel outdated for waiting.
And if you are already involved in sexual sin, understand this:
You can still change direction.
End the pattern.
Renew your mind.
Seek healing.
Seek God.
Freedom is possible.
But freedom requires honesty.
If I could speak to my younger self, I would say this:
That life was not worth it.
The pleasure was temporary.
But the consequences lasted longer than expected.
Today when I see people walking in purity, I respect them deeply.
Because some of us know what it took to come out of the opposite path.
If you are young and reading this:
Avoid sex until marriage.
Not because someone forced you to.
But because some roads are easier never walked than healed from later.

I found a prayer in Ruth 3:18
Lord, for matters concerning my life & destiny, let men & women whom you have chosen & touched to help me not rest until it's settled for my good and in my favor. And may I learn to wait patiently for how you work it out.🧡

[Praise of God | PPA of #GenI 🦅 @PArannilewa]

Hi,

Can you choose a ‘convenient’ time each day to spend 30 minutes in prayer, regardless of how you feel?

Do this:

1. Find a partner to whom you’ll be accountable.
2. Stick to that time.
3. Spend the last 5 minutes in quiet reflection and attentiveness.
4. Do this for the next 30 days and provide feedback.

Watch yourself become a host of the presence of God, and the voice of God will become clearer.

Let’s do this!

[POJU OYEMADE @pastorpoju]

Don't let these three things gain entrance into your heart. Complacency, Entitlement, and a Competitive spirit.

Complacensy sets in when you think you have somewhat arrived. It's time to be compensated and not to grow by opening yourself to challenges that will stretch you.

Entitlement sets in when you think those who you are in a relationship with owe you something. You will usually over estimate your investment and rate yourself far above their real contribution you have made.

The third is a competitive spirit that no longer focuses on serving those you are sent to. You look at what others are doing and simply want to outdo them whether or not it is within the context of your calling.

[The Winlos @thewinlos]

Fasting and prayer is good. Consecration is important. Laying on of hands has its place.
But without the mercy of God, all these things are empty rituals.

To you hungry for power:
Don’t chase formulas, chase Jesus, and don’t trust in your discipline alone, lean on His mercy.

[Apostle Harrison Ayintete @Preacherrapper]

Many truths can co-exist at thesame time and the are all true.

Examples.

1. God is not a man yet God is a man, Jesus Christ.

2. God does not impute sin on men yet God does not approve our sins.

3. God loves sinners yet God hates their sins.

4. Bible doctrine is very important in ministry yet doctrinal soundness doesn’t determine graces, there are very bad theologians with real divine graces.

5. All believers have God’s Spirit yet all believers do not have same ministry gift or offices.

6. God gave us salvation without our asking yet there are many things we will never receive if we don’t ask in prayers.

7. Deliverance is salvation, salvation is deliverance, yet exorcism is also deliverance, deliverance from accident is also deliverance, deliverance from wicked men is also deliverance.

8. Jesus is in heaven yet Jesus is in us (believers).

9. We have eternal life yet we have mortal bodies.

10. We have all spiritual blessings yet we need to work for money.

11. God doesn’t destroy us for sinning, He has given us forgiveness in Christ yet a man can be destroyed on earth by the consequences of his sins by satan, government and even men.

12. God is a God of principles yet God is a God of miracles.

13. Love of Money is the root of all evil yet money is necessary for life on earth.

14. Homosexuality is not of God yet it is very ungodly to lynch people for their sexuality.

15. An unbeliever can be very pious and kind yet he or she is eternally damned without Jesus.

16. You can’t buy God’s gift with money, yet you can’t show you love God without giving money.

17. Believers are seated in heaven (based on authority) yet we are experiencing sege on earth.

18. Music is not the HolySpirit but music can convey God’s power in very powerful ways!

19. Water baptism does not save yet water baptism can be a means of declaration that we are saved.

20. Church is not a building yet church will often need a building to perpetuate!

Many truths can exist and they are all true!

If you are a member of a family and it seems you are not doing enough compared to your siblings.

See, do not put yourself under unnecessary pressure; we all have different graces.

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

I thank Jesus who has helped me. I thank Christ whose grace and mercy I live by.

How do you preach Christ to same people you beg for their meats?

Meats they made available to celebrate their unbelief!

You can’t enjoy the meat of their unbelief and preach faith to them, clearly, you are enjoying their unbelief with them!

We are believers in Christ, we don’t serve our bellies!

May the Lord deliver you from poverty that makes you value meat over the eternity of the meat giver.

@Preacherrapper @GoodnessNation Great work you are doing, Sir

I once believed the lies many people paraded about you when I was in school then, especially in my final year when I served as the JCCF President.

But now, I know better. Men can be really extreme in their judgments

More grace to you, Apostle!

[Princess A @cessadelove1]

Let's pray,

Heavenly Father, As I step into this new week, I refuse to walk in confusion or uncertainty. Your Word in Isaiah 30:21 says, “Whether you turn to the right or the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” I ask for divine guidance in every decision I make.

•Lead me to the right places at the right time.
•Connect me with the right people for my destiny.
•Align my thoughts, my words, and my actions with Your will.
•Let me not be deceived by distractions or wrong opportunities.

Lord, I declare that this week, favor will go before me and open doors that no man can shut.
Everywhere I go, favor will follow me.
Every closed door in my life will be supernaturally opened.
Every opportunity I have missed will be restored to me.
I will be positioned for divine connections and promotions.
This week, I will not struggle to be noticed, acknowledged, or elevated. Your grace will set me apart, and my name will be mentioned in rooms of greatness!
No weapon formed against me shall prosper.
Angels are assigned to protect me and my loved ones.
No evil attack, accident, sickness, or disaster shall come near me.
My going out and coming in is blessed. Amen.

[NaNa🌼✨ @sil_vee_yah]

Nobody really talks about how waiting on God is hard. Somedays you have it all together and some days you burst into tears wondering how long this season would take.
