THE PROBLEM WITH AFRICA 33

By -

He sat very distracted while the teacher was trying teach him in class. Let me call him Charles. Charles's imagination was filled with graphics from his laptop games which is making him feel like returning to his games after the class. That the teacher was saying was making no meaning to him as he kept growing uncomfortably with each extra minute the teacher spends with them.
When the teacher noticed that his attention was not with her, she rebuked him calling him names and Charles would angrily walk out of the class went under a tree and continued the game he was playing before the teacher walked in.
While many people may falsely think that Charles is not interested in education, the truth is, what gives Charles fun has more graphics and theatricals than what gives him knowledge.
Those who entertain us in Africa are doing better job than those who educate us. Every day, they use better graphics to program our games, our party houses are well decorated, well conditioned, filled with theatricals and graphically enhanced but our classrooms and learning centers are just the opposite.
When a child's head is filled with graphics from the games he plays and exciting theatrics from the place of his fun, it requires equal or higher graphics and theatricals to excite learning in such child.
Teachers have to be theatrical and use graphics in teaching if they want to sustain interest in learning in the African child.
We need to use imagination captivating means that'll make the African child find it easy to maintain the image of what he has been taught on his mind.
When the African child is excited by what he sees in class, learning would be spontaneous and it would be easy for him to imagine things of academic importance.
Let us invest not just in the quality of information we feed the African child, we should also use stories, theatricals and graphics to pass down these lessons to them.
Africa would become great when we not just educate the African child with the necessary knowledge but use means that'll print the images of such knowledge on our minds.
God bless you
Promise Ikpe
(President Rebrand Africa)

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
