A Nation Engulfed By The Fear Of Men.


There is much darkness in the land, the nation is engulfed in the darkness of the fear of man/men.

According to scriptures, the fear of man brings a snare; thus the people/citizens are ensnared and held in bondage/slavery to men who speak tough and walk roughly like they're sovereign/almighty, and can curse, kill and make alive, whomsoever they will.

Some speak like they own the people of God, others walk like they own the nation and her armed forces, while some traverse the length and breadth of the nation like the lives and breath of it's citizens lies in their hands, and they can kill anyone they like, and possess any land they want. 

The oppression and suppression in the land is so much, that it leads to deep depression whereby many contemplate suicide. 

From the pulpits to the corridors of power in the institutions of government, to the forced grazing fields and streets of our nation, we see the pride, pomp and glory of these men who walk around and parade themselves like they're sovereign and almighty. 

They are greatly reverred by men, and often they issue out threats whereby the people of God, and the entire land/citizenry trembles in fear. 

The fear and glory of man/men fills the land, yet they are nothing but flesh whose breath can fly away and be no more in split seconds. For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower thereof falls away. Therefore will the Lord arise over Nigeria to bring down the high and lofty looks of men; to rubbish the pomp, pride, glory and influence/fear of men over the land; to practically show Nigerians the emptiness,  futility and frailty of men, the flesh and what is of man. 

In those days shall the chains of darkness and age-old shackles of bondage to men, be broken to pieces as the Lord takes up the despised and lowly to confound and bring to nought, the high and mighty ones in the land.

In those days, will the land be engulfed in the fear/terror of the Lord and encapsulated with his glory, and in his presence shall no flesh glory.

False Assertions About Sin. Part 6.

False Assertions Addressed By John.  (3.) "If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."  1 John 1:10. This is the third false assertion about sin, which John the apostle dealt with. I know you must have heard some preachers/christians today teaching that the new creation man does not have a past; that the new creation man is not the man that Christ died for, that the new creation is not the redeemed for he never existed prior to his birth in Christ. I was once in a service in 2001 when a renown preacher/televangelist, in a bid to demonstrate and pass across this teaching, brought out two men, and put one of them infront and said that is the sinner, that is the man that Christ died for, the man that was redeemed; he can sing: 'Amazing grace...that saved a wretch like me'; he can sing the songs of redemption.  He then led the second man out and said that is the new creation man, the man who has no past; that is

Who Is A Man Of God? Part 1.

The Man Of God Or The Man Of Himself.  A very thin line exists between a man of God and a man of himself. Many today are called men of God but they are men of themselves or men of the people. They speak of themselves, represent their own interests and concerns, even in the things of God. It's high time we defined who a man of God is. The general tendency we have is to refer to people as men of God, simply because they carry the bible and preach or because they set up a religious organisation, and have a building where they use a microphone to speak to a congregation. There's also the tendency to think that those called into the word ministry like apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists and pastors, are automatically constituted men of God. The appellation or designation 'man of God' was not carelessly used in scriptures, and should not be carelessly used by any bible believer. Scriptures scarcely referred to men as 'men of God', thus we should be c

GREATEST ENCOUNTERS FROM THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE.

GREATEST ENCOUNTERS FROM THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE.  By Dipo Ecclesia When I gave my heart to Jesus as a teenager and later staggered in faith, I became agnostic and showed complete apathy to the things of the spirit and I stopped going to church. I began to doubt everything about  Christianity and the bible and will try hard to argue the bible logically with anybody I see. After some years (Five years precisely), there was this strong and serious desire for me to seek God again (I actually embraced Islam at a point but just didn't practice). The desire to seek God was so strong and compelling that it became a struggle with me and the Lord before I finally yielded and bent to the will of the Lord and was restored. Back then I made up my mind that if there is really a Living God and since I HAVE JUST ONE LIFE, then I want to know Him myself before I die and not just what preachers have being telling me, in fact I asked God to show Himself to me and He did by some encounter
