But who are the God’s people?

Cooperation and submission are two distinct things. To cooperate is to collaborate with another person towards a common aim. To submit, on the other hand, means to want something other than what the other person wants, but to do what that person wants nevertheless because you feel you have no choice.

A person who submits to God is someone who does what God asks regardless of whether or not it makes sense or is convenient. Those who say, "If this is what God says, that is what I will do," regardless of whether or not it aligns with their personal preferences. When the devil sees that you are starting to oppose him, he will realise that you are truly devoted to God, and he will run away. From James 4:7:

So, give your will up to God. If you put up enough resistance, Satan will have to retreat.

Plant Beneficial Seeds

Many people are embarrassed by their family trees. The crop was harvested, but no seed was planted. Childhood memories cause more pain than they do inspiration. Put down the family scrapbook and pick up your Bible if this is the case.

According to John 3:6, "Human life comes from human parents, but spiritual life comes from the Spirit." Your parents provided you with genes, but God provided you with grace. Did you have a bad father? According to Galatians 4:7, "He will be your father." Did you lack a positive role model? "You are God's child, whom he loves," Ephesians 5:1 states, "so try to be like him."

You have no control over how your predecessors reacted to God. However, you have control over how you respond to him. Your history does not have to be a jail for you. Choose wisely, and your descendants and great-grandchildren will thank God for the seeds you planted years from now!

AMP:When He had said this, He shouted with a loud voice, Lazarus, come out! John 11:43.
May all your dead cells come back to life on this new month of Àpril, 2023.

I confess today as faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. I am full of bold, daring, and compelling faith because I am full of God’s word in Christ Jesus in Jesus’ name, Amen. Hallelujah!

Tunde Bakare, known for his mockery of Tinubu and his cronies, said, "I scored zero in the APC primary with true identity, original credentials." The date January 17th, 2023

On Tuesday, Pastor Tunde Bakare, serving pastor of the Citadel Global Community Church, responded to critics of his state-of-the-nation address on Sunday by claiming he received zero votes in the primary election of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC because his true identity and original credentials were not properly verified.

He pleaded, "Can someone please tell these people that if you go into a primary election with your true identity and integrity still intact and your original credentials from reputable schools and you end up with zero votes:

Education at all levels (elementary, secondary, college, and university) both inside and outside of the country is a true mark of distinction, one that can never be called into question. Please use Michel de Montaigne's language to express this.

'emilokan,' a term associated with Tinubu and meaning "my turn" in Yoruba, was a popular topic of discussion after Bakare urged Nigerians to reject its proponents.

He continued, saying that no honest candidate for public office would avoid debates and would instead have his staff respond to voters' questions about him.

However, the All Progressives Congress' Presidential Campaign Council PCC quickly responded by calling Bakare a "political paperweight" whose words should not be taken seriously.

"Bakare got zero votes at the convention," said PCC Director of Special Media Projects/New Media Chief Femi Fani-Kayode.

Mr. Dele Alake, the PCC's Special Adviser for Media, Communications, and Public Affairs, also weighed in, calling the reverend a political novice.

Bakare defended himself by asking his detractors why they were even considering his arguments. Maybe they can't manage the "paper weight" if it's true.

Some losses can feel even more like a victory than others. One of the Special Advisers, who I initially believed to be honorable, resorted to lying to his boss. He claimed that I had filmed a video in which I urged churchgoers to vote for his opponent, then reversed course and urged them not to vote for him.

To my knowledge, there is no such video in which such untruths are presented. They are spreading an edited version of a sermon given at Citadel Global Community Church in 2020 with the title "An idle man's brain is the devil's workshop." In the video, I was very clear that I did not support their candidate's choices in terms of personal morals, professional ethics, or political philosophy.

I never once suggested that our members vote for or against any particular candidate in the aforementioned video. And just so you know, we don't have any zombies in our midst. By the grace of God, they can think for themselves, and on Election Day, they will choose who to vote for. We take great comfort in the fact that the Bible clearly lays out the ancestry and ultimate fate of those whose livelihood depends on spreading lies about others and distorting the truth about them. Psalm 58:3-8 applies. "The wicked are alienated from the womb; from the moment of birth they speak deceit."

You can rest assured that I will not be rattled by the vicious attacks of these political merchants because I am well aware of Voltaire's observation that "many are destined to reason wrongly, others not at all, and some to persecute those who do reason."

Battlefield between the Killers and the Killees, There Is Blood and Xenophobia.

At the very least, elections in the current Nigerian regime are a sham. Full-scale bloodletting, thuggery, and xenophobic attacks are what the APC, in particular, has brought to the fore. A quick scan of Lagos will reveal that the operational gear levers of tribal hatred are all the way up.

Who sent the goons on both election days to cause mayhem among voters thought to be loyal to other parties than their own? Who, out of fear of losing, dispatches armed soldiers to slay their adversaries? Who sends mercenaries to ambush their rivals, steal their belongings, and burn their cars on fire?

They are politicians, the same stupid power brokers who rush to church to praise God for their "free mandate" while the grieving families of their victims bury their dead. Yet, one thing is certain: if not now, then definitely tomorrow, blood has a way of following those who spill it. Any office that has been hijacked will not be at peace!

Who dispatched the goons on both election days to wreak havoc on people thought to be loyal to other parties than their own? Who, out of dread of losing, sends armed soldiers to kill their adversaries? Who employs mercenaries to ambush rivals, loot their vehicles, and set them ablaze?

To put it mildly, elections in the current Nigerian regime are a hoax. Full-scale bloodletting, thuggery, and xenophobic attacks are what the APC in particular has brought to the fore. A quick scan around Lagos will reveal that the operational gear levers for ethnic hatred are all the way up.

But one thing is certain: if not now, then definitely tomorrow, blood has a way of following those who spill it. Every office that has been taken will not have tranquility!

We have longed for a leader, the one that should act like Ezekiel in his book 37:1-12. Now God has given us one and in by his teachings and admonitions ; the tribe known as "children of light" which the enemies have for decades separated from each other, caused hatred amongst themselves are beginning to come together. They have hearken to the thunderous voice the have corrected the misconception amongst themselves and their neighbors. Their once lost brave and patriot are beginning to come alive.......
