Evil Times

Satanic occurrences in different parts of Nigeria in this dispensation are on the increase due to the complicity of those in charge.  Indeed, ritual killings and unnatural deaths pervade the landscape while grief-stricken families and relatives mourn their loved ones without consolation.  Surprisingly, those in charge carry on as if nothing tragic happened.   This is sad.  Of worry, however, is the seeming absence of humanity in a sizable number of Nigerians cutting across social status, religious persuasions, and ethnic leanings.  Why is this so?

Divine power is absolute and incorruptible, it is greater and more valuable than terrestrial and subterranean power, which usually are subject to the control of lesser forces from the created objects of beings. For man to succeed in life as a leader and in governance, he must seek the grace of God as bestowed on King Solomon in the Holy Bible. The substance of divine power are knowledge, wisdom and the power of a discerning mind, which makes man dispense with the power of authority with the fundamental respect-a follow up of due process in power dispensation. The Holy Quran 2 : 269 and the Holy Bible Proverbs 1 : 7 attest to this fact. ''He granteh wisdom to whom He pleaseth : and he to whom wisdom is granted receiveth indeed a benefit overflown ; but none will receive admonition except men of understanding.'' In the same vein, the Holy Bible Proverbs 1 : 7 emphasizes the need to rely on divine power only, most especially sourced through having respect for the dictates...
