MY FATHER’S DAY ADDRESS

I write to you fathers because you are the head of the home.
You have to deal first with your wives; her too much talks, her constant nags, her illogical suggestions, her insensitivity to your physical needs, her ingratitude to all your endeavors, her insatiable nature for this and that, and your in-laws etc.
You also have to deal with the kids; their school fees, shelter, feeding, naughty behaviors, clothing and toys etc.
Many men soon bow under pressure that’s why they become irresponsible fathers and uncaring husband. They tend to divorce and seek comfort in a strange woman’s laps etc. as a way out of the stress of heading a home.
But they later discover that though being the man of the home has its stress and challenges yet there is no joy or fulfillment to compare to the joy and fulfillment of such noble course. They later regret the wives they have divorced and the children they’ve abandoned. The strange woman would had brought guilt and pain and hurt into his life.
Once your home is broken, you’ve given the devil foothold into all the aspect of your life; your finance, joy, emotional, physical and spiritual health will be in jeopardy
When God gave Adam a garden to tend and a purpose to fulfill, he also gave him a home to head. In heading the home, he’ll get the continuous drive to tend to the garden and fulfill divine purpose for him. Once the home is taken away from him, the drive to fulfill his purpose on earth would be gone and all that would be remaining for him is grooving in the dark till his death.
If you want to achieve great things for God, first put your home in order and keep it forever in order, everything about your greatness in life begins from your home.
The rule in putting your home together is simple: love your wife
The step in training your kids properly is straightforward: love their mother
The rule of overcoming every challenge in the home is easy: love your spouse
It is in loving the wife that the entire rules of putting the home together are fulfilled.
Love her with all your heart, all your soul, and all your body.
You can’t love her this much unless you’ve been given the grace to do so by God
You can’t express your love for her to understand without learning how to do so via God’s word and continue learning how to love her daily; never believe you’ve known enough how to handle her
God bless you

EVIL

WHEN GOD ALLOWS EVIL ON THE RIGHTEOUS When Christ the righteous was allowed to be crucified in the midst of the guilty, He resurrected in Glory and the enemy was defeated and put to shame. God doesn’t allow evil come on the righteous except He has planned to use the devices of the evil against the righteous to put the evil planner to shame. When the wicked is prospering in his evil against the righteous, it’s because God wants to by the evil of the evil doer puts him to shame. If you have questions over the prosperity of wickedness over your life though you believe in God, think on why God allowed the devil succeeded in killing Christ and what happened afterwards, Christ resurrected in greater glory and the devil was forever defeated before Christ. As it was for Christ so it would be for you, that enemy that is prospering over your life now though you believe in God, will be brought low via his wickedness and you’ll resurrect to greater glory and restoration Pr 11:5 ¶ The

THE STRUGGLE FOR WHOM TO BELIEVE

By -
After a program back in Nigeria early last year, a woman met me by the car and wants me pray for her conception, since she had a first son, having another has been difficult. As I was about to pray for her, I told her she is now pregnant by the word of God (Ex 23:26). After few days, she called to say, she went for medical test and the report isn’t so, and I replied, God is far above medical science, she said ‘amen’. She went for test again after few more days and the result was negative and she called and told me its negative, I laughed and said, Doc’s of these days are so blind, they see things late. She was surprised at my reply. She went for the third test after few more days, and result was still negative but this time, she told herself, I am pregnant because God has said so and by that she rejected the doctor’s report of negativity and thus the fourth test announced itself; an experienced mother asked her, are you pregnant? Instead of saying no according to the doc,

ORDAINED TO BE FRUITFUL

By -
Someone said because of the suffering he was passing through that God has ordained it therefore he is going to accept the financial barrenness as part of God’s plan for him. (I will therefore present my discussion with him like a drama) Me: (I looked at him and asked him) how do you know this barrenness is God’s plan for you? He:   If it’s not God’s plan, why hasn’t God done anything about my situation? Me: How does God change or create a situation isn’t it by His word as in creation? He: Yes Me: Has He spoken that you’ll be barren in life through His word to you? He: Not actually, but that’s what am experiencing, that’s how I feel right now Me: If your experience and feeling isn’t in accordance to God’s word, then your feeling and experience is devilish Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. John 15:8 God is so happy when you are fruitful in life; when you give birth to kids, it excites God, when you get results in
