ROMANS 8:14-15
For all who are ALLOWING themselves to be led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading again to fear [of God’s judgment], but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry, “ Abba! Father!”

Enough bloody pride.
Enough pride in the banks.
Enough pride in the churches.
Enough rainbows on the streets.

Enough of whatever the hell that flag purports to be. Who keeps designing and changing that demented rag, anyway? Who decides that it's time for yet another one, even though it changed last month? Who decides where and when it flies, and why? Some secret cabal of dog-mask-wearing S and M aficionados and moralists?

And enough of the ever-extending idiot acronym that only the propagandized insiders can even remember

LGBTETC

Enough of that

And seriously enough of the "gender-affirming" butchers and liars (and there are few lies currently circulating bigger than that term and everything it represents).

The "gender-affirming" movement will be the death first of the gay community, which never was a "community," by the way, so that's yet another lie.

So there's no coalition at all on the LGBTETC, much less a "community." There is instead an internal battle there that is far worse than anything the LG types faced back when the only thing they had to worry about was Christian conservatism.

At least no one was being castrated or subjected to unnecessary mastectomies in those bad old days.

Anointing and Knowledge II

We were having a Night of Glory service for the month of October 2019
A man walked in, he was bespectacled, sat at the front and looked quite frail
As expected at a point during the service the Holy Spirit took over as we began to minister to the Lord in songs and tongues
The Holy Spirit asked those who were sick in the congregation to step forward
A lot of people came and we began to minister to them
As a rule, I don't minister alone, every born-again Christian who has been established in righteousness ministers with me
The new believers among us stand to watch and observe as we minister as part of their training
The elderly and the young plus nursing mothers can sit but they are not docile participants or unconnected to the service
They pray along as the Lord ministers to them and through them
It is those who are joining us for the first time with expectations of a miracle that comes forward to receive the ministration of the spirit
That they will receive their miracle is not in doubt, but beyond the miracles, they must also be trained to walk in the reality of the new creation.
The man in question walked up to me and said "I am almost blind, i can barely see, this is why I am sitting in front. I have hypertension and my heart is not working too well, I live on too many drugs to count.
I am also indebted to the tune of millions and I have recently been sacked from my job
I came to receive divine help from God
I am a Christian and even an overseer in my church but there is no power, all the things I did for the church or with the church ended up in deep regret and more debts for me and my family
I had given up all hope before I heard about you
Please help me"
I prayed for him and then handed him over to Pastor @eyitayofelix who was standing to my right-hand side to get him filled with the Holy Spirit.
Within a few minutes, he was speaking in tongues as the power of the Holy Spirit came upon him
By the time the service was over he had removed his eyeglasses, thrown away his medications and was screaming and shouting Hallelujah all over the hall
A few days later he reached out to tell me that instead of being indebted the bank sent him a letter apologising to him because they owed him over 40 million naira in deductions on the mortgage he took from them to buy his house
They did an audit and it was discovered that instead of 90 million Naira which they ought to take in bits from his salary as a banker over the last twenty years, they had taken 130 million Naira
They stopped all the deductions immediately and told him to write a letter to them requesting a refund of 40 million Naira
He almost went crazy when reading the letter and he brought the letter to me so that I could read it myself
I gave glory to God
I have never doubted for once the efficacy of the power of God, I have not only seen it, I am walking in it and so are all my brothers and sisters in the fellowship
Ours was not a church setting, there was no clergy and there is no laity
We are all prophets, priests and Kings!
This man told me he wanted to join our fellowship
I told him we have a school where he will learn the ways of the Lord for three months and then we have practicals where students of the school are allowed the free room to minister to others and depend on the Holy Spirit to lead them in healing the sick, prophesying accurately, giving words of knowledge and wisdom and manifesting all the gifts of the spirit
I have always believed that every believer who is full of the Holy Spirit can walk in all the gifts of the Spirit as Jesus did
Apostles Paul, Peter and John didn't just have one or two gifts
They walked in the fullness of the Godhead bodily
I am a teacher and I demonstrate all the gifts even though I am partial to teaching because that is my calling
That a believer is strong in a gift does not mean he or she is not capable of walking in another gift when it is required of him or her to do so by the Holy Spirit
It is the Holy Spirit that does all the work in a believer as He wills
Jesus testified to this in the scriptures

John 14:10-12 The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

The man agreed to join the school and he became a very serious student
He was always in our class on WhatsApp and Zoom and soon enough he began to demonstrate the power of God effortlessly
He healed his niece who was living in his house and had been bedwetting for twenty-three years right in his sitting room
She was totally set free till today
He began to lay hands on the sick and they recovered immediately
He was older than me in age and I respected the grace of God upon his life immensely
He grew quickly and the testimony of the power of God in his life was evident for all to see
He became my brother and he is still my brother
By my brother, I mean, a fellow minister of the gospel
But remember that he was in a system before and there is a way they do things in that system
He told me himself that as a banker, sleeping with married women and single mothers was his thing
He said the single girls demand too much money but married women, especially those whose husbands live abroad or work far away from home would practically beg for sex when they find a discreet partner who will not complicate things for them
His former church where he was an overseer was a deeply religious one too and many things went on in that church that he told me himself didn't allow the power of God to flow among the brethren
He was in his fifties and for the first time he was enjoying perfect health and he was financially buoyant
He started a consultancy outfit and he started earning more money
He was also a very traditional man, in that, he believed age and experience made him superior to all of us since he was way older than all of us
He was a very good politician, this was something he learnt in banking and he could easily manipulate people and events to go his way
I didn't notice this at first and I mistook his ambition for being zealous for the lord
I made him the head of a unit and ordained him too soon as a pastor
He became rude and would talk down on his fellow ministers as if they were his subordinates
It was the same approach they had in the banking sector that he was employing in the ministry
He would boast that they should go and ask about him in so and so bank, he does not take slackness and would not tolerate any act of indiscipline
This was not the way I lead and certainly, it was not the way Jesus led
We had a crusade in Ibadan and he went with some members of the team because I couldn't attend
He began to talk to his fellow saints as if he was more anointed than them
"Let me lay hands on you and bring you the husband you have been praying for"
"I am anointed, let me lay hands on you and take away your depression"
I got the report and realised I had made a mistake
I had assumed that the anointing with all the results I saw was enough evidence to make him a leader

1 Timothy 5:22 Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, (this is not laying of hands to heal the sick, it is laying of hands to ordain someone into ministry) and do not share in the sins of others (Sharing in the sin here means If the person begins to misbehave, people will them complain and bring the matter to you as the one who ordained the fellow). Keep yourself pure.

I had neglected the place of mind renewal

Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

An anointed person without proper training is going to resort to the pattern of this world which he had learned and mastered over the years and therefore would begin to misuse or abuse the anointing not deliberately but simply because that is the pattern he had known and mastered all his life

I decided to remove him from the position of leadership with immediate effect but I didn't want him to be hurt or embarrassed, so I created a small team of mature believers and moved him there as the team lead for that evangelism team

He saw this as a demotion and came complaining to me
I told him it is not by the number of people you are leading, it is by the quality
I knew he wouldn't be able to misbehave with the new team because they were all mature believers who would gently call him to order when he missteps

The next thing he did was to come to me to announce that he would be starting his "own" ministry
He said God used the mouth of one of the ministers to ask him when he would be starting his own and he saw this as the Macedonian call.

I said it was okay.

So he went off and started his own ministry and then would steal testimonies from our platform, relabel them and publish them to attract people to his ministry

So I had from removed from all our platforms

He would usually then use some of our ministers to minister on his platform, I told all of them not to minister on his platform anymore

I was not being petty, I knew he had no ministry outside of pride
I wanted him to ride that horse of pride until he saw that all there is was empty air

He was attending a church all this while, it was through my influence that he began to minister in that church
I told the pastor of the church all that had transpired and asked him to be wise in his dealing with this brother of ours
The pastor noted it

A few months later, I got a report that he had started chasing two married sisters in the church whose husbands were working out of state with the intention of sleeping with them
The sisters reported the matter to me directly as they were mature believers
I took the matter to the pastor of the church he was attending
The pastor confronted him with the issue and he flared up, stating that it was a conspiracy to spoil his good name
I knew it was not a conspiracy based on my previous discussions with him when he first came to Christ
Old habits die hard and I had also seen him looking at one of those two ladies lustfully on one occasion when we were having a hangout
He told her that day that he knew the part of her body he would touch that would make her shiver because her husband had not touched that part before
I heard him saying that jokingly to her
I didn't say anything because at that point it would be seen as overreacting.

He became so unruly and abusive towards the lady that dared to speak out that the lady stopped attending the church
When I heard about it, I removed him from all the church's platforms online and wrote him officially never to attend the church again
The pastor of the church also suspended him

Of course, he came back at me and the pastor with everything he had which was nothing
He posted my pictures on all his platforms and labelled me the antichrist and a heretic teacher
I ordained him so I must accept it with grace
Whenever anyone sees his posts and forwards them to me, I will tell them to block him on social media so that they don't see his posts anymore

I was the one who made the error in judgment, I cannot dodge the bullets, so I steeled my heart to receive it with grace and not to reply to him at any time

Months went by, then he found himself in a position where he needed our help
He was too proud to ask but we were too loving not to offer
He was gracious to receive our extended hand and we were able to kiss and make up without any more rancour

He still heads his ministry with our blessings and we hold ours in peace!

I share this story to explain to many of us the dangers of being lacking in knowledge as an anointed minister of the gospel
It is possible to have knowledge and make mistakes here and there as you grow in your walk with the Lord, you will know and correct yourself as you adjust over time but to be anointed without knowledge means you will believe you are right even when you are in the midst of the greatest error of your life
You will find it difficult to admit the truth or see it even when the Lord is talking to you about it
Your carnal knowledge, combined with the Holy Spirit is a recipe for disaster

1 Corinthians 8:1 We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up. 2 Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. 3 But whoever loves God is known by God.

Wrong knowledge makes one proud, the right knowledge makes us grow in love
The wrong knowledge came from the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, the entire fruit of that tree was not of God and poisonous to us
The right knowledge is the knowledge of God and we can only know God by knowing His son Jesus Christ, when we know Jesus we grow in the reality of eternal life effortlessly

John 17:3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

PS: Do a practical test today, put Jesus on one side and put Moses on the other side, then ask yourself, is my pastor more like Moses or more like Jesus.
Please be honest in your assessment.
The do the same for yourself and please be brutally honest
The person you or your pastor has become more like, is the person you or your pastor is growing in the knowledge of

I love you,

You're moving in to Kileleshwa & you have the option to buy a 3 bedroom apartment at KES 15M or pay a monthly rent of KES 150K.

Hint: Investing the 15M in an IFB that fetches a return of 13% would earn you 1.95M per annum or 162.5K per month

You don't need to be arguing with anybody on twitter or in real life about your decision to request for a DNA test. When your child comes just do it. Nobody has to know the results except it's negative. The pros will always outweigh the cons in this situation.

If you are going for dinner or shopping with your man, and he tells you he doesn't have much cash to lavish and buy excess stuffs, make sure you pick what he can afford.

But if you have enough and you feel you want to support part of the bills,make sure you give your man the cash before going out.

Give him the cash or transfer the money into his account!

After you both have an amazing dinner ,shopping or outing,let him hold that respect to pay the bills!!!

That alone is a rare sign of respect.
Good evening.

Grey Areas

A mother had three daughters
The first had an abortion at 19 and lost her womb
Of course, she engaged the services of a quack doctor because she dare not let her parents know she got pregnant
It was a shameful thing that would bring her parents shame in the church and society
It would also definitely disrupt her education and advancement in life
The man responsible for the pregnancy was actually still a teenager like her, it was a teen love thing and the two of them were so lost in their puppy love world of wonders that they didn't consider the consequence of all the "touch me here and touch me there" they were doing when they got to the "explore my body that I may understand myself better" stage of the relationship
When it suddenly struck them that his fishing expeditions into her body had gotten her pregnant, all he did was cry like a baby
He didn't know what to do
All his manliness and macho dissolved into nothing
She realised she had to take responsibility for her own life at that point and began to make enquiries about getting the buns out of her oven
Eventually, she learnt about a doctor who would do it for cheap
She raised the money and did it
It ruined her chances of having a child for life
The second daughter was born with a hormonal condition that has prevented her from menstruating since she hit puberty
A lot of money has been spent on hormonal therapy without much gains
This leaves her
The last girl
She was brilliant, as healthy as a fiddle and beautiful
She started her career at the age of twenty and by the age of thirty she was sitting shoulder to shoulder with the heavy lifters of her industry in various conference rooms
Her career was very important to her
She had little or no time for relationships
She considered emotional entanglements a distraction
She did this until she was in her mid-thirties
Then their father died and all the children and their mother had to go through the burial process
After the burial, the will was read and in it, their father stated clearly that the only regret he had was not attending the wedding of any of his children or having a grandchild through them even though he died at the age of seventy
He asked his daughters to please ensure that their mother didn't die with the same regrets
He left a befitting inheritance for them and words of encouragement
Their father's will hit her like a mission statement
She told herself she will support her sisters to do all they can to get married and have children
She sponsored the sister with hormonal issues to New York to meet with specialists so that whatever ought to be rectified could be done to cure her of her health issue
The other sister who lost her womb was encouraged to adopt a baby
Both sisters didn't argue with her
The one who ought to adopt a baby went through the process and four years later her hope was crushed by the agency because she was not married and had not been able to hold down a job or a business all her life
She was born rich and practically lived her life pursuing pleasure and a soft life
The other sister with the hormonal issues didn't make any headway too
despite the humongous amount of money spent to correct her hormonal issues
She had never experienced such failures before in her life
Four years of heavy investments on two fronts and both ends came up with nothing
It affected her badly
She sank into depression
Their mother was four years older than when she started out trying to fulfil her father's will
Their mother had since developed some health complications like hypertension, arthritis, some memory issues and so on
Which they are managing as she grows closer to seventy
It was too overwhelming for her
She took two weeks break for work to pray and make a form decision regarding the future
She turned to God and said "If you don't intervene in issues like this, then what good are you? If you don't consider my father's wish important enough for you to wade in, then why did he serve you so earnestly all his life?
I will choose another religion or become an atheist if you don't do something
My mother is sick at the age of 69 and all she wanted was to see her daughters get married and for her to carry her child children
You are doing this for unbelievers, why are you denying us these basic things that you give everybody?
Why would my oldest sister be denied the right to adopt a baby and you give children to child molesters?
Why would my other sister be sick with this strange disease and you refused to heal her despite all the funds we sunk into her therapy?
What kind of a God keeps mute at the suffering of his children?
She kept these dark thoughts going in her head until she came to the conclusion that it was best for her to commit suicide
She didn't know how she got there but she did
She began to think of the most effective and painless way to do it
She picked up her phone and ordered some things she believed she would need
They arrived at her doorstep a few hours later
She decided it was the best decision for her and the family at large
She had failed to fulfil her father's wish and God had failed to show up for her family
She couldn't bear to see her mother suffering and her sisters unfulfilled
The best decision was to end it all!
Just as she started working on executing this decision, her phone rang
She picked it
It was from her mother
Her mother sent him a phone number and asked her to call the number urgently
She decided to call the number as a matter of granting her mother's last wish to her before she would end it all
She called
The person picked
she introduced herself
The person introduced himself
She said "My mummy sent me your number and asked me to call you"
The person said "Your mummy said she had a terrible dream that you died, she said it was so real that she was not sure if she was dreaming or experiencing it in reality until she woke up in a panic"
She said "Ha, mummy was right"
The person said "You were planning to end it all"
She said "Yes" and then she began to tell her story and all the frustrations she had been enduring all her life
She spoke for three hours
The person then asked her why in all her talk she didn't mention getting married or trying to have children
She kept quiet
The person asked her again "You said you daddy has three daughters, two of them have issues having children but you don't.
You are a beautiful young woman who made the choice to face her career and never get married or have children. Your father didn't put you under pressure and neither did your mother or siblings. You listened to your father's will and decided to do something about it but that thing you decided to do was not to put yourself out there, get married and have children to solve the problem.
It was to push others towards it while you remained immovable on your principles
You are unwilling to produce life with your body but you are willing to take your own life to spite God for not answering your prayers.
Did I summarise what is going on correctly?
She kept quiet at first, then she said "I never saw it that way"
He said "That is the problem of being short-sighted. Short sighted people lack both foresight and hindsight. They neither learn from their past nor see into their future. They take a principle and stick to it like stones, forgetting that human beings are more like water. We must adapt or we will die!"
She said "I get your point now sir. I admit that I have been short-sighted, I have outsourced solutions that i have the power and ability to procure and i am complaining of not meeting my target. I will adjust"
Then she said "I have spoken with many pastors in my life and they all usually will say "let me pray for you or sow a seed into my life or my ministry for your breakthrough. It got so bad that I stopped going to church when my pastor said he knows how much i earn in pounds and since I don't have a husband or a child he does not understand why I am not giving fifty percent of my income to church to encourage the work of God since i will die and strangers will end up inheriting everything I have. This was why I stopped going to church
It was not the first time a pastor will say that to me or insinuate it but you spoke to me like a brother r even a father
All frank and dispassionate and I appreciate that
God bless you sir.
They rang off
A month later, she called him with the good news that she was pregnant
He rejoiced with her
Nine months later, she delivered a set of triplets
He shouted Glory"
He named the baby in a very close family affair on zoom
The lady, her two sisters and their mother were the only attendees
Her mother and two sisters moved to Manchester to help her nurse the babies as soon as she got close to her due date
Three months after the babies were born, her sister that was plagued with hormonal issues began to see her period naturally and without any medical intervention at the age of 39 after attending the GSWMI prophetic service held on the first Wednesday of February 2023
She also got pregnant a few weeks later and delivered a set of twins on December 17, 2023 in Manchester
They moved into a bigger apartment as a family
Their mother, now 71 years old
Her three daughters aged 42, 40 and 38 and the five grandchildren (Three boys and two girls)
Her mother is happy and healthier, her sisters are fulfilled (The oldest has taken to caring for the children as her own and is absolutely enjoying the role without any reservation
Their mother is a bit frail so she can't do much running around but she instructs
She goes to work and so does her sister with their minds at rest that their children are in safe hands
Her father's will was fulfilled and they have another generation in the family to nurture and raise with the right values.

PS: If you are wondering if a process was skipped deliberately in the testimony shared above, you will be right
It was not a traditional story that many of us are used to
It is however a true story
I was the "Person" she spoke with on the day she wanted to commit suicide
When it comes to preserving a family's legacy and the generations to come, the Bible showed us the lengths God is willing to go
Take for example Lot and his daughters, the short-sighted folks will see everything wrong with it
The girls got their father drunk so he didn't sleep with them knowingly and they got pregnant as a result
Lot didn't make a habit of sleeping with his daughters for fun or leisure
His daughters did what was done to preserve his bloodline
It happened to Judah too
He slept with his daughter-in-law just once (She pretended to be a prostitute, so he didn't do it knowingly) and it was to preserve the coming generation
Naomi's two sons and husband died, she was too old to have a husband or a baby but she had a daughter-in-law who could help her redeem her lineage and she took that opportunity to do so through Boaz
She knew Boaz's first son through Ruth belonged to her husband and would bear her husband's name and carry on his legacy
Yet you see believers in 2024 frowning on ladies who chose to do IVF in order to secure the coming generations
I heard of a pastor who told a 45-year-old single lady that doing IVF would be like "helping God"
When Abraham helped himself by having Ishmael instead of waiting for the promised child, God didn't take any offence
It was Sarah who took offence and sent the woman and her child away
The first time this was done, an angel appeared to Hagar and told her to go back home because she ran away by herself due to the wicked way she was treated by Sarah but the second time Sarah made Abraham send her away and this time, since it was Abraham that sent away, it remained so.
We will be having a debate to discuss issues I have tagged the Grey Area Debates every third Friday of the month going forward
The first of these debates will be taking place this Friday, kindly join us when the links are out
You are also free to share your comments and opinions in the comment session, just be polite and state your point clearly
Someone someday will come across this and it will be a huge blessing to the person as he or she makes a decision on preserving the future
