Understanding is all that faith requires to come alive.

But what is Understanding?

It is being able to see what God is saying. An understanding of the word of God is your most valuable asset in your journey as a Christian.

Understanding is the only thing that distinguishes one believer from another. There is no substitute for understanding. Fasting is a waste of time and religious punishment without understanding. Prayer is a religious oppression as well without understanding. This is because everything in the kingdom produces to the level of your understanding.

In the account of the parable of the  sower in Matt 13:18-23, Jesus said the seeds that fell  on good ground, are those with a good and honest heart, who received the word and understand them, and so went on to produce more fruits, some a hundred-fold, others sixty, and others thirty.

The only variable among the factors listed is their understanding. The seeds that produced all fell on good grounds, they were all honest people, but their understanding varied. So, it is the depth of your understanding of truths of scriptures that determines the heights of your triumph in life.

The Bible is full of treasures. It is the will of the God for his children; but will only be delivered to them according to their understanding. Your understanding of the will (the Bible) is what determines which blessings or provisions contained therein you have access to.


When you understand his ways, you will be in command of his acts. Moses was in command of his acts because he understood God’s ways. That was why Moses could get water out of the rock and the sea to give way (ps.103:7)

Top 10 Best Night Club in Nigeria

Nightclubs (or Disco as known in most European countries) is an entertainment event center and bar that usually operates late into the night. A nightclub is generally distinguished from regular bars, pubs or taverns by the inclusion of a stage for live music, one or more dance floor areas and a DJ booth, where a DJ plays recorded music and also the closing hours. The upmarket nature of nightclubs can be seen in the inclusion of VIP areas in some nightclubs, for celebrities and their guests. Nightclubs are much more likely to use bouncers to screen prospective clubgoers for entry. Some nightclub bouncers do not admit people with ripped jeans or other informal clothing or gang apparel as part of a dress code. The busiest nights for a nightclub are Friday and Saturday night. Most clubs or club nights cater to certain music genres, such as house music or hip hop. Below are the list of the luxurious and most expensive Night Clubs in Nigeria 10. Signatures – Akure The c...

Man Cries Out as He is Sentenced to Jail for fetching Rain Water

Gary Harrington of Eagle Point, has been sentenced to 30 days in jail and to pay a fine of $1,500, all because he had three reservoirs on his own property, that he used to collect and use rainwater. Harrington says he plans to appeal the conviction in the Jackson County Circuit Court. That conviction revolved around nine misdemeanor charges that come from a 1925 law. That archaic ordinance bans what state water managers called “illegal reservoirs.” “The government is bullying,” Harrington said in an CNS News, last Thursday. “They’ve just gotten to be big bullies and if you just lay over and die and give up, that just makes them bigger bullies. So, we as Americans, we need to stand on our constitutional rights, on our rights as citizens and hang tough. This is a good country, we’ll prevail,” he added. It all started back in 2002, when Harrington was attacked for having three “reservoirs” (ponds) on his large 170 acres of land. But the state claims that collecting water requi...

Devotion - FORGING FORWARD

“And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward” - Exodus 14:15  It is unfortunate that many youths do not see the need or have the zeal to move forward in life. Rather, they find a comfort zone at the bottom of the ladder of life.  A story was told of a young man from a very rich home, who completed primary school but chose to waste away his life with vagabond lifestyle, despite his parents’ wish to sponsor him up to university level.  All his mates, including those who were not as bright as he was, made it in their academic pursuits. He ended up an outcast, and by the time he came back to his senses and returned to persuade his parents to send him to school, alcohol had damaged his brain. It is not God’s desire that you remain static in your plans but that you make steady progress. God does not expect you to remain the same way over the years without moving forward.  Striv...
