LOVE,THE BLOOD AND GRACE


            I am GOD, I am the BEGINNING and the END, so I know the end from the beginning, so when you see what happens in today’s world and you wonder if I see any of it, I see them, I saw them even in the beginning. I am both OMNIPOTENT and OMNIPRESENT  all powerful and present in all places, nothing is hidden from me (even what you did in the dark, the very thoughts of your head, yes I know all about them). THERE IS NONE LIKE ME.
             In the Beginning I decided to create someone special and in other to show my love for that someone I created something. Man and Earth; let me tell you how much I loved Him, I loved Him so much I saw the good and evil that will happen from creating him but I could not stop from creating him, I wanted to enjoy the fellowship I will have with him and let him enjoy the love I have for him. So I created a PLAN; LOVE, THE BLOOD AND GRACE.

LOVE: I created Him just like me(my very own image) so that when you see him you see me and I gave him the earth as a gift and told him to use it, its resources, replenish it, subdue it and be lord over it (have dominion). Oh how much I loved him and for a few days earth was like heaven and everything was good. Then disaster stuck and evil was given birth to when man disobeyed me and obeyed the devil, making the devil his master. So the man I loved so much became a slave to the devil and not a master of himself like I wanted him to be. At that time, even in my wrath, I chastised them out of love and proclaimed the prophecies of my PLAN to save them because I loved them.

THE BLOOD; Man’s life was in his blood, and without blood there is no remission of sins. From time to time I showed him that to get back to me, the blood of an animal needed to be shed. I kept showing this from the sacrifice of Abel to Abraham, to the Passover (exodus) because I am God and of a purer eyes than to behold iniquity. I still wanted to enjoy fellowship with man whom I loved so much so I showed him how he could do just that in my relationship with Israel. So in my PLAN there was the ULTIMATE BLOOD, because of my love I sent MY SON JESUS, Jesus was me in the flesh, he had my spirit and lived on earth the way I wanted man to have always lived with love for me and compassion for all men. However, I sent him to die, to shed his blood, his blood is the way for the remission of sins of every man and the salvation of every man and I made this known to man, by his blood every man will be free from the slavery of the devil when they believe in Jesus and Man can once again enjoy me in the fullness of my love for him. He didn't need to sacrifice blood every time he wanted to speak with me.

GRACE; this very act of mine was grace, man did not need to do anything to save himself but by believing in Jesus, grace was given to man and they could live as I wanted from the beginning. Man was to live with prosperity, in love. However, In this world, some did not accept this and evil still abounds, but not to worry, I am preparing a place for all those who accept Jesus and in that place, there is no tears, no death, no sorrow, no crying, no sickness, no suffering, it’s a MANSION.

If You ever wonder what happens to all this evil in that mansion, well all evil goes to hell(a large lake of fire that burns with unquenchable fire); the devil, demons and every man that has a part in evil and has some evil in Him, All of these I do so that the man I love so much can live in peace and love in the mansion I am preparing for him.

I love man so much and I will do all it takes to ensure that he enjoys all my love and everything I have for him even creating a new heaven and new earth for him.
THAT IS MY PLAN? MY QUESTION TO YOU IS WHAT PART OF MY PLAN ARE YOU IN?


Oh, the love that sought me
Oh, the blood that bought me.
Oh, the grace that brought me to the fold.
Wondrous grace that brought me to the fold.

A MIXED DAY FOR AFRICAN CHAMPIONS

I love Nigeria.
In case You don't know, we are African champions at both the youth and senior level. We played two matches yesterday. The Youths against Congo and the Senior ones against Kenya.
It was a mixed day however,the youths did the job, qualifying for the next round(wining 3-1), the seniors had a had time  with a score draw(1-1) but are still top of the group.
The positives is the drive, you see them play more like they want to win, yes they miss chances but i guess we missed Emenike a lot. Obafemi, welcome back to the fold, there'll be better days.
One thing though is that we need to find a way to create that balance in the midfield that let's Mikel pull the string and allows Onazi be the box to box midfielder he can be(cos He's a great ball player)
Kudos to all of them.
J'aime le Jeu.

God bless Nigeria.
God Bless the Flying and Super Eagles(They've earned the right to be called Eagles)

ABIDING:Our Victory

Some Few years ago, i was going through a torrid time in my christian life where stumbling and falling became a rhythm. I found some answers in what i am about to share:



John 15
Our Victory as Christians lies in Abiding in Christ.
I do not know any other way for a Christian to live victoriously than by abiding. Therein lays our victory.
In my personal Christian Experience, I have seen and found that I triumph most when I am abiding. When I am not abiding, I slip, I fall, and the more time I spend not abiding the more into the miry clay I sink. That’s universal so don’t go thinking it’s not the same for you too because if you sit back and think you will see what I am saying except you don’t really understand what it means to abide.

Abiding is an Art.
Abiding includes a number of things, but in sum it is absolute dependence on the vine (JESUS) for everything that we want and need.
Abiding includes:
  • ·         Reading God’s word
  • ·         Studying God’s word
  • ·         Meditating on God’s word
  • ·         Praying God’s word
  • ·         Worshipping God
  • ·         Praising God
  • ·         Adoring God
  • ·         Sharing God’s word
  • ·         Fellowship with God’s People
  • ·         Do God’s word.

As you can see each of these is an art on its own so when we put them all together, we have an ART.
They all work hand in hand.
You cannot study what you do not read, can’t meditate on what you don’t read, can’t pray rightly to someone you don’t know, can’t be moved to worship, praise and adore till you read, meditate and study, can only share what you have read.
They form one big loop of victory that sets us on a rock called Jesus.

I SING

I don't know about tomorrow
I just live from day to day
I don't borrow from it's sunshine
Cos it's skies might turn to grey.
I don't worry about the future
Cos I know what Jesus Said
And now,i'll walk beside Him
Cos He knows what is ahead

So many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But i know who owns tomorrow
And i know He holds my hand.

Sing with me.

WITH THE REF'S HELP


Well, I love real Madrid and we've just had one of the best 8 days in history. Beating Barcelona twice and Manchester united once, though we got a little bit of help from the referee. What better reward for all the hard work put in.
I got to say though that if I had to be scared of any team in the champions’ league, it was man u, they aren't the most special side but what makes them special is their ability to win when they are not playing well, that was what made me scared. They have the grit that Barcelona don’t have.
And now that they’re out I have to say ‘bring it on’ to all the other teams (maybe not Bayern and Dortmund if we ever play like we did yesterday again).

Thanks referee, though I agree with him because the rule book says Dangerous play-red card. Justifies the sending off, though we hate the sending off in the big games.

Now, away from all the controversy, you've got to love the awesome shot technique from Modric, the creativity of Ozil for the second goal, the vision of Higuain to get the right pass and Ronaldo's athleticism to get to that ball ,how about the defensive tackles by Varane . On the flip side, the pace of Welbeck and oh boy! 39 year old Giggs keeps surprising me, the defensive organisation of Manchester United till the red card.

That's what football is about, that is why it's the best game in all the world.

J’AIME LE JEU.

HALA MADRID!
