Day 19

Overwhelming percentage of every praise report or testimony we give is about something that can be seen, felt or received physically but the foundation of it all is the word of God. I have heard it said many times that God created the universe out of nothing. I disagree . God created the universe out of his word and his word is everything

Today , I thank God for his WORD, the building block of restoration, resurrection , blessings, healing , righteousness , the very foundation of life itself.Without his word on earth, there will be no testimony

Day 18

Today ,I thank God for united States America for all the good it has done , for all the good it can do and for all the good it will do. Regardless of all it’s errors, there is so much am grateful for .

Day 17

I had mentioned earlier that I lost my job on account of a lie.Well the lie was that someone determined that I had mental problem and my company took the decision to lay me off . I was shocked and very angry when I found out why.

First I did not fall into the category of ones to be laid off and secondly I did not and have never had a mental problem. If they had just laid me off , I would have moved on but to do it on account of a mental problem lie, no way.

I saw everybody I thought I knew Who could help, nothing happened . I prayed and prayed alone and with the brethren in church, nothing . It dragged on for 9 month. Getting back the job looked absolutely impossible . That same 9th month, the director of personnel was removed and a new one took over. I came to the premises one day to see a friend and he told me he knew the new guy and to follow him to his office. I did . Everybody that should take the decision to restore my job were miraculously in his office that day. My friend told my story and right there , he instructed them to restore my job. What dragged on for 9 month’s was over in 3 minutes.

You cant loose if you don’t quit.

Day 16

Today I thank God for my wife and children.How good and how pleasant it is to have a family to love and be loved

Day 15

The old American western , BONANZA, was my personal box office growing up. Within a week of seeing the series , I and my friends, transformed into cowboys in our minds. We had no horses but we had an uncompleted building and sticks for guns. We would explore every nook of the structure , jumping off and on from wherever we could

One day we were on the property playing cowboys when a friend of mine appeared from nowhere pointing his stick gun at me. I took off in a leap and landed on a wood. I felt no pain until I looked down. A six inch nail had pierced my left feet and came out clean on the other side. I pulled it out , bleeding and headed home.

My mum grabbed my feet , cleaned it with spirit , put antibiotic and wrapped it in a giant band aid.. That was it. I went off limping for days until it healed.

God is good.

Day 14

It’s been 4 years that I have been off high blood pressure medication and diabetes medication .

It is freedom . It is either the WORD of God works or not . I am the living proof. Someone once asked me , what if you die and I answered , I go to heaven . How bad is that?

Day 13

I celebrate the lessons God has taught me over the years. I remember one time my job was taken away from me on account of a conspiracy based on a lie.As a Christian , I went to God in prayer with the air of righteous indignation. I was so sure that God had to do something because he knew I was innocent and I was not shy about letting him know. How can he be there and they get away with this, I insinuated to him multiple times . Eventually , I got the job back and I was so pumped.

A decade later, I faced a different situation. I was in all sorts of difficulty but this time it was entirely my own making. As a Christian , I could barely pray besides begging God for forgiveness . I was crushed with guilt and a strong sense of stupidity. No bravado in prayer, just a timid , unsure demeanor. This lasted for a good while.

One day as I was begging God as usual, I perceived his words in my thoughts asking a question. DO YOU THINK I AM GOOD TO YOU ONLY WHEN YOU ARE INNOCENT ? IF THAT WAS THE CASE , YOU WILL NOT BE HERE NOW . Wow! That day , hope rose in my heart like a tiny candle in a dark room . I stopped begging for forgiveness and began to declare his goodness over my life. Not everything I believe for have I seen, but against hope in hope I believe that HIS WORD I believe is accomplished .

Day 12

A couple of years ago , I was privileged to hear an account of the Lords goodness to a childhood friend . I was best man at his wedding .

His wife became so light headed and sick at work that she had to quickly see a doctor .The diagnosis was brutal . She had fibroid and surgery was needed ASAP. She headed home to link up with her husband,but on the way,she almost fainted. She barely branched into another clinic . She was depressed, confused and stressed out. The doctor there listened to her ramblings quietly , then decided to run a test . Shocker! She was pregnant

What would have happened if the first doctors actually did surgery on her to find out , it was no fibroid but a fetus? She carried the pregnancy to term and gave birth to a boy, her only boy , for she already had 3 daughters

The lord is our shepherd .

Day 11

About 4 years ago, my only sister began to have seizures. We- all 5 brothers-were very concerned . Then the frequency of the seizure doubled. We became alarmed.

Routine tests confirmed our worst fears. They found two tumors in her brain. . What can we do?where do we start ? She was our only sister . It was horrifying .

Doctors said our best bet was surgery. We gathered ourselves and chose that path and of course we prayed and prayed. She and her husband flew to India for the surgery . We had hope

The surgery was successful, the tumor removed, no complications. None. It’s been 4 years plus and nothing . All her body functions normal like nothing ever happened

There is a popular chorus we sing in Nigeria , it says ” I have a very big God, he’s always on my side , a big big God, he is always on my side

Day 10

It is amazing how The spirit of God works with us and in us to do his will.

When I made the decision to write down my insights as I studied the scripture, I really did not know the consequence of it .4 years later , I decided to put them together to make a book. As I began to collate these insights , I was shocked at what I discovered .

60- 70 percent of the insight I received was about identity in Christ , was about the way God sees me. Then it hit me. All this time, while I studied the Bible, God was changing the way I saw myself . Then I got the point . If I cannot see myself the way I truly am in christ, how I can truly live the new life

I cannot fully express the joy that exploded in me . All things do work together for our good
