Article - ARE YOU HOME YET?

Have you ever wondered why things are not what they should be concerning you? Why your heart has never had rest? Why you don’t seem to have had genuine peace? It is all because that part of God in you, that part that really matters, is not yet at home with the maker and owner!
How far are you from home

The bible says in Gen 2:7, “And the lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul”. Until that part that makes you a living soul returns home, you cannot be said to be living.

In 1John 5:12, the bible says “he that hath the son has life, and he is Jesus Christ, and of himself he says in John 14:6. I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh to the father but by me”. So return today, receive and have the son, and your life will have a meaning.


Maybe you already know the story of the prodigal son or you have heard about it before, in Luke 15:11-32, the young man strayed away from home and wasted his life in wantonness of sin. Coming to his senses, he made up his mind and returned home to his father who had daily anxiously expecting him to come back home. He was received, pardoned, and given a warm reception. You know too that you have strayed from God and your father according to Isa 53:6. He has expects you to return today. All you need is to acknowledge your sins and repents. (Ps 51:1-3,10). A great reception is awaiting you today if only you’ll come home (Luke 22:7)

Perhaps you have already given your life to Christ, but the cares of this world is distracting you. Don’t be deceived, press on and be faithful. Let God be your sufficiency!

I learnt recently of two men, one a Missionary, the other the King of a powerful nation. The Missionary was returning home to his country after a 40years work overseas. This coincided with the return of the King from a 40hours expedition. A crowd came to receive the King and no man came to welcome the Missionary.

Highly discouraged and wroth within himself, the Missionary lamented “God I have been away for 40yrs and now I’m back home with no one to receive me while many had come to welcome the King from a hunting spree”. But God spoke to him, “My Son, you’re not Home yet”.

Brothers, press on, you’re not home yet. Sisters, don’t look back, for you are not home yet.

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...
