Devotional - RIGHT THE WRONG

“For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me” - Psalms 51:3

Youths by their impulsive nature are prone to wrong decisions and choices in their academics, career, and relationships.

The consequences of such decisions could be tragic, plunging the victim into regrets, disappointments and failure. Some youths have been victims of drop out of school syndrome, drug addiction, cultism, alcoholism and sometimes, mental breakdown because of wrong decisions and choices.

Dear youth, are you in this condition? Take a cue from someone who said: “If you have made mistakes, there’s always another chance for you.

You may have a fresh start any moment you chose, for this thing we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down but the staying down.” Like King David in our text, humbly acknowledge and confess your faults to God, your parents and others who have been affected by your wrong decisions and actions.

Don’t allow your past mistakes to hinder your future progress. Seek wise counsel and right your wrongs. Above all, give your life to Christ and He will change your situations for good.

Challenge: Don’t allow your past mistakes to hinder your progress

Prayer: Dear Lord, forgive my self-will as I yield myself completely to you

Quote: Surrender your life to Christ

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...
