God will provide water from the rock

 


The times are indeed difficult in different climes, in the family, community, organizations and countries.

However, do not despair.

Never give in to thoughts of allowing your faith to falter.

For God, your creator will continue to guide and protect you.

He will provide for all your needs.

When God led His people out of Egypt, life was very difficult for them, initially.

The reassurance of Moses that God was with them, gave them hope of better days ahead.

God is always with you in the family, community, organization and country.

He will surely provide 'water from the rock.''

​I fervently pray to God to raise your ''Moses'' to lead you through the ''Red Sea''. Amen. 

For more insight, read Exodus 16.

The Role of NCC in the Provision of Food for Downtrodden Nigerians

Government at all levels and the people are now at home with the fact that there is extreme hunger and poverty in the land. This is no longer a subject of argument, even though a large percentage of Nigerians insist that the three tiers of government are doing almost nothing to address these threats  to human existence. Most government agencies and those in the private sector take advantage of the unfortunate  economic situation to ridicule Nigerians. This was the case on Thursday 24 January, 2019, when the Nigerian Communications Commission(NCC) organized a Consumers Outreach Programme at the Mapo hall, Ibadan, Nigeria, obviously for the downtrodden and economically oppressed  class in society, which is a far cry from the stakeholders forum, soon to be organized by the Commission at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja. This forum is strictly by invitation. The posters containing information about the stakeholders forum pasted  at different locations within the city prepared the gr

Religion does not Teach Evil by Prof. Sabitu Olagoke

Image
No religion teaches evil(Q6 vs. 108, Q22 vs. 67). Let us stop religious discrimination, while at the same time keeping and respecting all the houses of God. This can be achieved by maintaining the sacredness of the houses of God. Also, adherents must follow the path of righteousness for a god state of piety. Adherents must all shun all forms of iniquities, so as not to convert the houses of God into houses of profanity. All of us must, therefore, realize our status as stakeholders-religious leaders and adherents-to be able to foster peace in the land. Let our thoughts, acts and deeds including body languages stand on our determination to correct aberration through peaceful process(Q47 vs. 35). Be not fainthearted, crying for peace, when ye are the uppermost for Allah is with you and will never put you in loss for your god deeds.

The Grassroots and Government

Image
The importance of the Local Government revolves around the need to attend to the expectations and welfare of the people at the grassroots. In addition, the Local Government plays a vital role in Federal schemes of education, housing, transport among others, nationwide. It adopts the mainline of policy to local conditions. Sadly, the Local Government, under the present dispensation in Nigeria, is not independent. Interestingly, a number of Chairmen and Councillors elected from their neighborhoods, now focus on recruiting cultists and other categories of criminals to intimidate, terrorize and attack residents of several communities, as social services continue to remain a mirage. Indeed, these elected officials are not known by the vast majority of the populace at the grassroots, while development is only on the pages of newspapers and speakers of radios. Curiously, the character of growth to meet the needs of the poverty-stricken people come with lies, half-truths, and promises, ev
