#It's difficult to describe this book in one sentence. Reading through it feels like a devotional more than a book on prayer. And then it feels like a motivational text also. Emerge will get you to pray even as you read the book.
This is one book that

a reader is sure to read more than once. It's very rich in scriptural illustrations and practical in its application

#Lamentations Chapter 5 sums up everything happening in NIGERIA. From banditry-kidnapping-herdsmen-landgrabbers-bad governance-Ineptitude etc.

Powerfully described in the scriptures, but, there is a solution at the end

Lamentations 5:1 MSG
"Remember, God, all we've been through. Study our plight, the black mark we've made in history. (THE NEEDLESS PLIGHT OF NIGERIANS BROUGHT ABOUT BY BAD GOVERNANCE IS UNPRECEDENTED)

Lamentations 5:2 Our precious land has been given to outsiders, our homes to strangers. (FOREIGN HERDSMEN FREELY & FORCEFULLY GIVEN OUR LAND

Lamentations 5:3 Orphans we are, not a father in sight, and our mothers no better than widows. (THE NARRATIVES OF SOME NIGERIANS WHO HAVE BEEN AT THE MERCY OF BANDITS, TERRORISTS & HERDSMEN)

Lamentations 5:4 We have to pay to drink our own water. Even our firewood comes at a price (IS THERE ANYONE NOT PAYING MORE FOR BASIC NEEDS, EVEN, INSPITE OF HEAVY TAXATIONS & CHARGES.)

There is something SINISTER about this picture...

I have often found this pix very intriguing.

Trust me, I am 150% in agreement, but, somehow, I have some reservations with d 1st statement... "It doesn't matter what she did"

I feel this isn't balanced in the real sense of it.

2.
I have witnessed a woman slap her husband while trying to mediate in a domestic issue, yet, the man kept his cool and honoured those of us there by not matching the slap with a corresponding slap or blow...not all men are this patient...

I have witnessed a woman break the

3.
windscreen of her husbands car because he came home late from work the previous night.

I once mediated in domestic violence where the wife hit her mother inlaw because, she (wife) could not stand the attention her hubby was giving his mum...

I have also seen several extreme

4.
cases too. While some kept their cool, others matched it "fire for fire"

#I believe women too should be patient and encouraged to have self control just like we all expect the same from men.

Take it or leave it, it takes grace & a full dose of selfcontrol to b patient

5.
with a violent spouse

Men and women both need to be reminded of the importance of patience, longsuffering, self-control and most importantly, how to bridle the tongue which is the major culprit in most domestic violence..

How balanced it would have been if that 1st statement

*Acts 16:9 MSG*
That night Paul had a dream: A Macedonian stood on the far shore and called across the sea, "Come over to Macedonia and help us!"
*Acts 16:10*
*The dream gave Paul his map* . We went to work at once getting

things ready to cross over to Macedonia. *All the pieces had come together* . We knew now for sure that God had called us to preach the good news to the Europeans.
👇🏼
Everyone needs a " *ROAD-MAP* " to chart his/her course in life.

It gives direction & a sense of purpose.✔️

God gave Paul his via a dream or what some translation refer to as vision/trance.

2Kings 6:2,5-7
Let’s go down to the Jordan River, where there are plenty of logs. There we can build a new place for us to meet.”“All right,” he told them, “go ahead.”
[ *5* ]But as one of them was cutting a tree, his ax head fell into the river. “Oh, sir!”

he cried. “It was a borrowed ax!”
👇🏼
👉🏼They wanted to expand.
👉🏼They wanted to grow..
👇🏼
They therefore, matched their words with action by borrowing Instruments of expansion.💪🏻
👇🏼
They got to work, but, encountered a major setback. That which they borrowed to enhance their

expansion "FELL"🙆🏽‍♂️
👇🏼
That which you borrowed for expansion may have " *fallen* "😢

👉🏼God will pick up your business again.
👉🏼God will pick up your marriage

again.
👉🏼God will pick up that ministry again👇🏼
Whatever has fallen, shall be picked up.

You will take God where it fell, and the unfathomable will happen.👇🏼
[ *6* ]“Where did it fall?” the man of God asked. When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it into

the water at that spot. Then the ax head floated to the surface.
👇🏼
What happened, defied the law of gravity. The reverse happened.
Iron floated, while the wood sank.😱

👉🏼This year, you will have solutions that defy human comprehension.

#Are will still blaming the Church?

Got several messages, comments and the likes from people who still have this belief that the Church should cease from praying and "diversify" into providing roads, stable electricity, good health care, etc

Well, for starters, the Church of

Christ cannot be held responsible for the failure of Government to provide basic, very basic amenities. Those ruling NIGERIA, from the federal level to the LG level, were either voted in or imposed on us by other means possible to do these things.

Elected officials the world over, have a minimum standard vis-a-vis citizen's expectations.

Therefore, the church cannot be held responsible for government's ineptitude.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for poor educational facilities, poor electricity, poor

roads, poor health care, poorly equipped Hospitals and dispensaries.

The church cannot and should not be held responsible for the state of insecurity.

Many are quick to say, "with all our prayers, wat has changed?" Well, will all our prayers, God has shown so much mercy to this

country. It is our prayers and the mercies of God still upholding us inspite of how unpalatable the situation is.

We are quick to say, there are countries the world over doing well, who are not as prayerful as we are, yes, countries like China, Singapore, etc. But, we forget to

So true what the Bible says..

Proverbs 28:12b NKJV
...But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.

Everyone seem to be in hiding, Killers and their sponsors seem to be on a killing spree and the nation looks helpless. Not anymore in Jesus name.

This is what God says;

Jeremiah 48v28 MSG
"Leave town! Leave! Look for a home in the cliffs...(whether they are foreign killers or locally sponsored killers, the Lord says, "leave town")

Jeremiah 50:25 KJV
The Lord hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: (

The Lord has opened His armoury)

They will bare the wrath of God.

They have sown wind.

Hosea 8:7 KJV
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind:

Let all those sponsoring terror, bloodshed, banditry, kidnapping reap the whirlwind of God

Zech 10:6b MSG

Because I am their very own God, I'll do what needs to be done for them.

God will do whatever needs to be done in this country.

We have a lot to pray about. For our nation and for ourselves, this Sunday night at 8pm. (Live on Facebook and Instagram)

#Do you know God reads "letters?"
1.
There are some things we often think are beneath God to bother Him with.

We assume some mundane stuffs are to small to bother Him with. We panic because, we believe, God shouldn't be bother with small, inconsequential stuffs

King Hezekiah

2.
once received a letter from a king with a history of destroying anything and anyone that caught his fancy.

The king was greatly feared by all. There was no exception. He had conquered all known powerful kingdoms, their kings and their gods.

The letter brought fear and

3.
trepidation upon king Hezekiah and his subjects.
It brought panic.
It was a joy killer. Even the bravest of men trembled.
The letter turned everything upside down.
Everything was now at a standstill.
Hezekiah and his subjects were under siege.
The king did not know what to do

4.
out of the confusion that arose, but, he knew where to go.

Hezekiah did the unthinkable. He took the letter to the altar of prayer and spread it before God.

It seemed ridiculous to do such a thing.
It looked like something a confused man would do.

5.
It looked laughable, but, he did it anyways.

2Kings 19:14-15,20 KJV
And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord.
[15] And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord, and said
