#Shouldn't you rather thank God first, than start with Prayer Points?

God frowns at ingratitude.

Make no mistakes, no one makes progress with ingratitude

The passage below is proof that God frowns at it👇🏼

🔰 WORD4TODAY🔰

Esther 2:2 MSG
the king's young attendants stepped in and got the ball rolling:"Let's begin a search for beautiful young virgins for d king.

Here, there was an occasion.
An open vacancy.👇🏼

👉🏼A void, only God could fill.
👉🏼A void, only God wld handpick & fill in

👉🏼The king's young attendants stepped in and got d ball rolling:

Unknown to anyone, God was already working behind d scenes.

👉🏼When the young attendant stepped in & got d ball rolling, no one knew where d "ball" was going to stop.

👇🏼Alas, the "ball" *stopped* at Esther's feet

*This New Year;*
👉🏼You will not lack a voice in the "palace"

👉🏼You will not lack men and women who will do the work for you...All you will do, is step in and sit on the throne.
👇🏼
Today, things will be set in motion that will eventually advance you to greatness.

#It's appearing 2023 is the most "pressing need" now amongst politicans.

While we demand for better & best from Government, let us not forget 2023 is just "FEW WEEKS AWAY.."

PDP&APC, daily in the news... PLOTTING & PLANNING. Now, I ask, where are the other political parties

that "SUDDENLY" showed up in 2019?

What are their strategies?
Where are the youths in all these?
Where are those clamouring for a better Nigeria or are we going to pour New Wine in Old Wine Skins?

Are these silent political parties going to suddenly emerge again in November of 2022 to get grants from Government and then go back into oblivion?

It's beginning to look like we are walking the same ropes of 2019 elections, making the same errors or believing the unbelievable

about these politicans being foolish...

Time,. ofcourse, will tell who is wise and who is not.

"Siddon look" is no longer fashionable, if we want a REAL CHANGE.

We must start now and indeed start now for real of we are to make any meaningful impact, come 2023.

We must not

allow these current crop of politicans make us look unwise again in 2023.

The #EndSARS protest, was indeed an eye opener that when we stand together as a formidable team, we will reach out goal.

#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

@renoomokri Still on OWO Sunday Massacre.

The bible is always on point.

Let's take a look at these scriptures and how they resonate.

Excuses don't make things happen.
There is a moral to this drama in the bible..

Our excuses keep these tyrants in power

Judges 8:20 MSG...

2.

Then he spoke to Jether, his firstborn: "Get up and kill them." But he couldn't do it, couldn't draw his sword. He was afraid - he was still just a boy.

We could conclude that afterall, he was just a youth, agreed...

David had his chance against Goliath, he took it &

3.
the rest they say is history.

When God reached out to David to use him to save Israel from Goliath, it was up to David to arise.

When God reached out to Joseph, the 11th son of Jacob to use him to preserve the children of Israel, it was up to Joseph to arise.

4.
2 Chronicles 26:1-5 KJV (Uzziah was only 16 when he began to rule)
Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of his father Amaziah. (Hear some of the great things he did)

5.
[2] He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
[3] Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jecoliah of Jerusalem. [4] And he did that which was

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

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

60 CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BEARERS & WOMEN OF QURAN

A THREAD 🧵

1. The first matter that it befits her to employ is taqwa (fear) of Allah secretly and openly, by exercising caution (wara') with regards to the sources of his food, drink, dress and earnings.

2. She is perceptive about her time and the corruptions of its people, that she may beware of them regarding her religion.

3. She concentrates on her own situation, having the aspiration to reform whatever is corrupt in her affairs, guarding her tongue and choosing her words.

4. If she speaks,, she speaks with knowledge when she sees speech to be correct.

5. If she remains silent, she remains silent with knowledge when she sees silence to be correct.

6. She rarely delves into that which does not conern her.

7. She fears from her tongue things more severe than she fears from her enemy.

8. She imprisons her tongue the way she imprisons her enemy, so that she may be safe from its evil and bad consequences.

One defining feature of many Christian men today is the effeminate practice of covert and evasive speech.

Even worse is the fact that this manner of speaking is widely seen as the moral, "charitable," and polite manner of speech, to be praised, encouraged, & emulated.
(Thread)

The essence of this effeminate style in the evangelical man is the strategic avoidance of taking personal responsibility for (or "owning") what he has to say.

This goal (the evasion of responsibility) is achieved through various tactics calculated against clarity & precision...

Rather than saying exactly what he means in a clear, and unequivocal, manner, the polite evangelical man will hint at his meaning through innuendo and implication––so as to alway maintain the plausible deniability that he didn't mean the controversial thing he meant...

Or, if he does speak clearly with unambiguous moral authority, he will be sure to leave the object of his criticism unclear. The object of his criticism––whether a person, or an idea––will always remain abstract, theoretical, and disconnected from any specifics or concretes...

By implementing the right degree of unclarity on either the nature of his criticism, or on the object of it, he ensures that the right people in his audience will be emboldened and endeared toward him, but that he will never have to defend or substantiate what he has said...

Does Islam teach men to oppress women?🧵

A dispassionate study of the primary sources of
Islam, along with an analysis of the position of
women in societies where Islam was implemented, shows that Islam's emergence was a blessing for women and it drastically improved their previously poor status.

As far as relationship to God is concerned, there is absolutely no difference between men & women. Both are promised reward/punishment according to their conduct.

In addition to the verses which makes both genders one product in regard to spirituality, Quran, in addressing believers, often uses the expression 'believing men & women' to emphasize their equality in regard to their respective duties, rights, virtues & merits. Examples:

Quran being the rulebook for muslims demonstrates how certain things should be done which also includes rules regarding marriage, behaviour between spouses, separate rights of them which cant be taken away, Allah's warnings against pressuring/confining the wife etc some verses:

Ayaat from the Quran that uplift me when I’m down [Thread]

What really helps me sleep at night when I don’t feel well is reciting surah kafirun before sleeping. Protection from shirk gives me peace of mind, as it should for a muslim. AlhamdulilLah

Another thing that gave me peace of mind and ease at heart was reciting these 3 chapters of the Quran. The sunnah is beautiful wAllahi.

Suratul Baqarah in general but this verse in particular because it’s a reminder that whatever we go through, it’s not more than what we can bear and that patience and faith in Allah will give us victory, bi idhnilLah

Suratul Hadid in general but these 2 verses in particular because it reminds me of the greatness of Allah and that Allah is still the nearest to us. Brings my attention to Allah’s unlimited abilities and that goodness can only be sought from the aide of Allah. Allahu Akbar
