2. ENTRUST THEIR TRAININGS UNTO THE HANDS OF GOD

Mr. Okon would always boast that he is a disciplinarian and doesn't take nonsense with any kids. That he knows how to enforce the children to obey him and for a very long while he thought he was doing well. The daughters are always home, they never stay out late, they don't visit friends and they are always doing what their father said until one day, one of them got pregnant. Who made you pregnant the father asked, with 'koboko' whip in his hands, 'it's you' she replied and the man was shocked. The daughter was so adamant not to reveal the true identity of the person who impregnated her, later it was discovered that she had slept with many men so she couldn't pine-point which exactly was responsible so she accused her father. She said, her father never allow her to go out and has never caught her outside without a tangible reason therefore its only plausible that its him who is responsible over her pregnancy. This is an example of what happens ...

MY MUM'S FRIEND

She told my mom, *when I lost one of my daughters, many people said many things to comfort me but I don't remember any of them now but what your son did and said, that's all I remembered and that was what God used to comfort me* I was so devasted that I wished for death and was so bitter then after he had sat beside me for a while, he brought the pictures of my other children and showed them to me and then he said *what you have left is what's important now, be strong for them* pointing to the picture of my other children At that moment I remembered my responsibilities to my other children who were also devasted by the lose of their sister and decided that I'm recovering from that loss so as to comfort them. It's painful thing to loose something of great importance to you but always remember what you have left and your responsibilities towards what's left are all that matters now. Don't lose yourself because of your loose There are those need you...

1. BE A GODLY PARENT

Emma came home with a math home work, he wanted his mother to teach him how to solve the home work but the mother couldn't, she never went to school so she'll always ask the neighbor's children to help her son Emma. In so many occasions, her neighbor's children would shrewdly abuse her, calling her "Olodo" because she couldn't solve a simple math question for her son and she'll keep hearing them and enduring the abuse just because she wanted them to keep teaching her son but one day, she couldn't take it any longer, so she registered in an adult school and promised herself that her next child's home work, she won't ask anyone to do it for him. Emma's mother couldn't help her son no matter how much she had wanted to just because she didn't have the knowledge herself; she endured abuses just because she wanted another person to give what she didn't have that her son needed and then she made a decision that she'll a...

STRENGTHENING THE POOR 48

The lady was shouting at the sale's girl in a very rude manner; using foul words on her. I was getting upset and wanted to confront her for such ugly behavior but the owner of the shop resisted me, immediately the woman made her purchase and left, the shop owner apologized to her sale's girl for such behavior, turned to me and said, 'our duty in this shop is to sell to customers, not to teach them manners'. That line opened my eyes to what business is all about, sell, sell and sell. To train the African Child to excel in business, he must not lose focus to his primary purpose which is to sell his goods and offer his services. The businessman should be only interested in selling and nothing more. Endure the ugly manners of your customers and clients as long as they patronize your products and services. If the customer is shouting at you, don't retaliate, sell your market and make your profit. Nice men are in heaven, those on earth are products of various mood...

STRENGTHENING THE POOR 47

On every birthday, I receive a birthday text from one of my banks, and during special holidays like Christmas Easter, and Independence days. These texts are their ways of endearing me to them by making me feel they are also interested in other aspect of my life that is non-bank related. Some other banks buy cakes to celebrate their customers and give them special preference cards just to show appreciation for banking with them. I have two different banks, three before, but I closed one, ignored the other and I'm very active with one just because of the relationship they are having with me that not bank related. To train the African child to build a great business, let him master the art of customer relationship. Attend their birthdays and any event thats special to them or send messages, call to know how they are, show that you care and really care. As you build a deeper relationships with them, you'll endear them to your products/services, and you won't be afraid of ...

BAPTISM OF GOD

*THE HOLY SPIRIT* ```In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, if any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified). John 7:37-39``` The Holy Ghost is meant for all those who believe in Christ Jesus with deep hunger for God. If the believer in Christ thirst, he'll be filled with the Holy Ghost. Christ is now glorified and the Holy Ghost is now given to all those who believes in God through Christ. *He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?* …Acts19:2 After we believe in Christ Jesus, the next thing is to receive the Holy Spirit. The disciples being addressed in our above text had believed in Christ and were baptized in water but they hadn't been t...
