Happy new year to all my fans. Thank God after all the struggles of 2019 we still made it at last in 2019 now we're in 2020, the only year with double whole numbers. As a servant of God, I prophesy to you, your blessings shall be doubled, your labours shall yield double portion increase. That is why, by prophetic injunction and pronouncement, the year 2020 is themed: Your year of "intimidating Speed". The rate at which you will run this year will intimidate your enemies.

LORD TEACH US TO PRAY
"Lord, teach us to Pray" was the disciples' request to Jesus Christ in Luke 11:1. The disciples of Jesus today are making different requests:
Lord, teach us how to speak in tongues; Lord, teach us how to cast out demons; Lord, teach us how to heal the sick, Lord, teach us how to Preach wonderful sermons, etc.
The early disciples, having observed Jesus Christ for sometime, discovered that the success of His ministry was wrapped up in His prayer life. They figured that if they could pray like Jesus they would certainly be successful too. Yes, this was what they needed to accomplish the primary task of fishing out men which Jesus Christ had assigned to them. The twentieth century disciple would have argued logically with Jesus and said: Well, Master, you called me out to be a fisher of men, so teach me how to Preach Holy Ghost, power - packed, dynamite-ignited messages that will tear down stony hearts and make the likes of the Sultans, Ayatollahs, Grandmasters, etc. to come crawling to their knees to accept you. Oh yes this is certainly a good desire and it is most likely that the early disciples desired that also. They however realized that the power to preach such power-packed sermons was hidden in that not-so-much loved subject- PRAYER. Today we want the display of the power of God in our ministries, but we are too lazy to appropriate that power through the only channel-prayer. Our plight today is that we do not get into the business of real prayers. We "Pray Coat" our activities and programmes and hope to see tremendous success; But this will never happen. As long as we ignore God's planned way of doing things and devise our own short-cuts, so shall we keep on experiencing short-falls in all our attempts. Prayer was more of the business of Jesus Christ than the preaching and teaching He was engaged in. A study of the prayer-life of Jesus Christ will reveal the fact that He spent more time praying than preaching and teaching. This is where the power, this is where success is experienced.
If the explosion in the number of churches and independent christian ministries in Nigeria today is matched with a Christ-like-prayer life, the whole world will be turned right side up for the glory of God in a couple of years. But what is happenings today? Noise! That's all. All we do is talk, talk, and talk. When there is more of talking than praying, the power of God will not be manifested. It has to be the other way round. Are we really praying? Why are the Moslems not standing in dread of us? Why are secret societies taking over our institutions of learning, our churches and our homes? Why are we making far less converts (not to even talk of disciples) in a year as compared with the number of births in the country? Do we really believe in the power of prayer?
I read books and learn and hear from great men who have examined what God teaches about prayer. I urge you to also do same. You as an individual can enjoy your prayer life with God and in addition experience answered prayers on a daily basis.
I wish to admit that I am just a fresher in the school of prayer; I have just begun to learn. Besides, it is not possible to pen down all that the Bible has to say about prayer in a small post like this one. However, if after reading this post you become more conscious of God and begin to desire to spend more time with Him in your closet, the purpose of this post would have been achieved.
NECESSITY FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN WHO WISHES TO ENDURE TILL THE END
.....And the Bible said; "But he that endures to the end shall be saved". (Mtt.10:22). Which means there are some who can be serving God today and will not be saved from the lake of fire at last.... Why because they didn't endure till the end. Which means you're expected to serve God from the day you gave your life to Christ till the day He comes to take you to where He is.
One secret thing about secrets is that knowing it unveils your secret ignorances. PRACTICAL SECRETS OF ENDURING TILL THE END
There are some practical secrets of enduring till the end, which is crucial for young Christians. These nuggets are listed below;
repentance- There is difference between repentance and genuine repentance. When you've repented, deliverance from different spirits can still be done on you...... the devil can still hold charges against you. At this point you will be fumbling..... Ah!....When it comes to genuine repentance and you're genuinely repented,.....you're a replicate of Christ who said in Jn.14:30... For the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. No genuine Christian has been found faulty by the devil. All the properties the devil left in you, the devil has taken them back. Listen, before you think of pleasing God to the end you must first of all repent genuinely, totally surrender all without reservation so that God will not be reserved towards you. Consecrate yourself totally... Then go into the course of serving God.
of Holiness- God loves holiness and abhors sin, no wonder the Bible said the Lord's eyes are too holy than to behold iniquity and He expects us to be holy(Lev.20:7). Holiness is one of the absolute attributes of God that He shares with mankind. When you're serving God today without holiness you make yourself unusable in the hands of God and you make yourself an angry toy in the hands of the devil. God can't fully use you and the devil cannot boast of you as an instrument to use for work because you can run to God at any time....... See, the devil wants us to be totally surrendered unto him and if we're not totally surrendered unto him what he does is to mess us up. He covers us with infirmities, humiliation and shame..... Ah! God may I never be unusable in your hands. May I be on fire for you. Since man never wanted to be himself from the beginning, man wanted to be like God, now God almost agreed to it and said "I AM HOLY, BE YE HOLY" (Exo.19:6, Lev.11:44, Lev.20:7, Rom.12:1, Eph.1:4, etc.). When the devil came to tempt man, he never told man that he should be ready to be as holy as God. Man was never naturally holy. The natural man was sinful. Man wanted to be pleasurable in life without laws, but the creator created man with and in law so he expected man to be lawful. The natural man is sinful and God hates sin. So for you to serve God today you need to be like God today. Whether you have the greatest call of God in your life, or you have been a Christian, the moment you deviate a new count starts for you. Your good deeds and services are wiped out. Keep holy till the end.
catch the fire that makes a difference- YOUTHS LISTEN! The next thing to do is to be revived. You need revival to carry this kingdom race to the finishing line. Without the fire, serving God is boring. What about you? So you need the fire. The fire refinesJb.23:10, it purifies and sustains. Show me a man who's revived and I will show you a man who's never tired of God. One thing is knowing about the fire another thing is catching the fire.
PRACTICAL STEPS TO CATCHING THE FIRE.
a. Desire For It (Jn.7:37-39)- You pursue whatever you desire for. When you desire for the fire God sees a chance to give it to you. First of all, desire for it.
b. Keep The Right Company- Stay close to the people carrying genuine holy fire and make efforts to collect some from them. me your friends and I will tell you who you are. Make sure you keep fire full friends if you must catch the fire.
c. Spend Regular Time In God's Presence- Pray God to give you appetite for His presence. Appetite and strength to stay hours in His presence. The level of love you have for God determines where God places you in His kingdom. When you spend time with God in the secret place you don't waste time with men on earthly matters.
d. Keep Sin And Dirt Away From Your Life And Spirit- Because God disapproves sin, He wants us to steer clear from it if not He can't stay close to us. When there is sin in your life the Hoy Ghost gives way for that stinking odour (of sin).
e. Study And Meditate On The Word Of God- Studying and meditating on the word of God provides the required firewood that will receive and sustain the fire in your life.
WELCOME TO A NEW EXPERIENCE!
GOD IS REALLY MAKING USE OF THE YOUNG
George Stinney Jr. was the youngest person sentenced to death in the 20th century in the United States.
He was only 14 when he was executed by electric chair.
During his trial, until the day of his ex*****on, he always carried a bible in his hands, claiming for innocence.
He was accused of killing two white girls, Betty of 11 years old and Mary of 7, the bodies were found near the house where the teenager resided with his parents.
At that time all the jurors were white. The trial lasted only 2 hours and the sentence was handed down 10 minutes later.
The child's parents were threatened and prevented from giving him gifts in the courtroom and then expelling them from that city.
Before the ex*****on, George spent 81 days without being able to see his parents.
He was trapped in a solitary cell, 80 km from his city. He was heard alone without the presence of his parents or a lawyer.
He was electrocuted with 5,380 volts in the head.
70 years later, his innocence was finally proven by a judge in South Carolina. The beam with which the two girls were killed, weighed more than 19.07 kilograms. Therefore, it was impossible for Stinney to be able to lift it, let alone be able to hit hard enough to kill the two girls. The child was innocent, someone put everything together to blame him just for being black.
Stephen King was inspired by this case to write his book The Green Mile, which was taken to theaters in 1999.
EDUCATION WITHOUT DEVOTION, COMMITMENT AND PRIORITIZATION IS DECEPTION.

ADVICE TO YOUTHS
I salute the courage of those youths who can face their parents and defend their youthful lifestyle and the trending lives in town.
I agree that no time is too late to take a walk on a distressed relationship but truth also is ;there is always some redlight๐ฅ๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ at the starting of a relationship which would bring troubles (in the future). But will the so-called blindness allow us look beyond the steaming romance of the moment to check the reldight? Even when it is glaring that one is stuck with abusive relationship, will the lust and lure of s*x allow the brains to think? In most cases the sweetness of what is under the trouser and pant holds the brain captive, deluding us to believe we can actually change the other person.
If you ever think you can change anybody๐จ๐ค, that's the beginning of the end for the person not you. But why and how would you want to change a whole grown up man๐ฌ or woman๐ญ? There is how deep love will go๐ it is not only food for thought but a clear case of when it is no longer love but madness๐.
Youths, sit back and think๐ด of your relationship life but don't forget that wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.
