The Apostle Paul showed us the apostolic model of ministry. Let’s review seven steps to effective apostolic ministry. First we must understand that man cannot save himself. We live in the world that teaches we don’t need the God of the Bible. Secular humanists, for example, have educated people to believe they are gods and capable of finding their own way through life. The sad conclusion of this doctrine is a complete moral collapse, outright corruption, lack of identity, direction, and purpose. The only salvation for humanity is Christ. Jesus said, “Come to me all ye that labor and are…

I will take you briefly through the following ten signs of the apostolic calling. You may be able to identify with all of them, maybe you will not. It all depends on your spiritual maturity. It might even be possible that the Lord has called you to an apostolic ministry, but you have not faced sufficient preparation yet to be ready for this phase. So if you have received a personal conviction of an apostolic calling, but cannot identify with most of these signs, then give the Holy Spirit some time to work in your life. In time you will…

I slept around 10:20pm, not quite long after laying on the bed, I heard God calling Me Audibly So I Woke Up. When I Checked My Time, It Was 11:30P.M. Suddenly, I Felt The Urge To Pray So I Left The Bedroom To The sitting room & started Praying._ _All Of A Sudden, My Eyes Opened And I Was In Another Realm. I Saw An Array Of Ladies Both Young And Old, Very Beautiful, Coming From The Sea Side. And I Asked God; Who Are These?_ And He Said, _*”These Are Marine Spirits That Have Been Commissioned By The Devil…

Change is in the air in Nigeria; both positive and negative change – it all depends on individual perspectives and experiences. You most cases, when you show a cup with half content of water to a group of people; you might get two or more responses. Some subgroup may describe as half full with water, while another subgroup may say that the cup is half empty;  indeed, our perspectives can define our reality. Nigeria is truly changing; however, our national change is to the dimension of our perspective as citizens of this great nation. While we all clamour for change in Nigeria, I think…

A few days ago, the people of Rivers State in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria went out en masse to vote for their choice parties and candidates in the just concluded legislative rerun elections. Up until then, the state has been predominantly ruled by the PDP, under the leadership of Governor Nyesom Wike – the former Minister of State for Education under the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan. To many people, Governor Wike is a life-wire of the current PDP; providing courage, strength, money and all manner of support for the party he loves to be identified with anytime.…

While the most quiet and the loudest desire of most Nigerians, irrespective of religion, gender, education, location and occupation is the steady rise in the price of crude oil at the international market. Quite a significant number of people are also asking some salient questions; such as, “What next?” The people of Yoruba ethnic in Nigeria have this saying that, “The fall of heaven is a matter for everyone.” Implying very strongly that everyone must make personal efforts to avoid the impact; hence, no one will be exempted. The price of crude oil in the global market has been on…

Planning itself is an area that many people have come to love to avoid or overlook in an atmosphere of being busy. We are people that love to live one day at a time, meet life events suddenly and “by luck” or “chance” get good result through whatever life throws at us. However, planning is as crucial for effective living as oxygen. Some time ago, while Jesus was speaking, He said, ” For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it— lest, after he…

Elections across the world hold at periodic intervals for the purposes of expressing interests, preferences and choices among or between alternatives. Groups, associations and nations have made use of elections to determine their national direction, leadership and values. The era of Military coup de tat, when the will of the people is disregarded and denied is indeed over in many nations across the world. Just yesterday, the people of Ghana went to the polls to choose their new President. The truth is, the choice of the people has been made, with the opposition claiming victory, without any violence reported. In…

While I am of the opinion that Kingdoms perform better than democratic countries, I consider democracy to be an option that we must all embrace and evolve in. Democracy unlike many other forms of government, is focused on the people – it revolves around the people. Democracy is one form of government that gives the sovereignty of the nation to its people. When the Military take over government of any nation, their objective is to take over the sovereignty from the people, and therefore becomes dictators of the people. In other forms of government, such as autocracy, someone wields the…

For many young Nigerians that were born post-economic boom of the 1970s, the reality of our economic experience is far too much to be desired.  The Nigerian Naira has fallen so badly that almost everyone (except the few that have anticipated it – the few that took the wealth else) is complaining about the weight of the scarcity of foreign currencies within the macro-economy. We are fully aware that Nigeria “gained” independence in 1960; and from that time till date; Nigeria has been governed (ruled or used or abused or misused) by at least, 13 men. Out of that 13,…
