Scriptural Highlight : ( Genesis 2:5 )- "There was no plants or grain sprouting up across the earth at first, for the Lord God hadn't sent any rain; nor was there anyone to farm the soil." In our scriptural highlight for today, the Bible is describing the generations of heaven and the earth - that is, the creation process. At that time there was no plants or grain sprouting up across the earth because the Lord God hadn't sent any rain. There was no man to farm the soil yet. Note well that God is orderly in His dealings. He made the world in such a way that one thing depended on another. He followed a certain order. Plants couldn't just grow  unless their was rain. So at the time under question why did God restrain the rain? Why was there no rain? Because if it rains, plants will definitely grow.Let's take note that plants are good things for the earth; plants are parts of the things needed to support life on the earth. Plants represents the bles

Scriptural Highlight : ( John 3:16) - "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." Our scriptural highlight for today talks about God's love for the world. God loved the world. He didn't just stop  at "I love the world", He gave. And what God gave was His only Son, Jesus Christ. One day I made some sacrifices that cost me something big; I thought this was it; God must appreciate this. God offcourse appreciated but He told me something. He said to me "Until you give your all....." There is nothing we can do for God that outweighs what He already did for us. Some people become unusually proud because maybe they sponsored God's work, or their tithe is usually bigger than others and all that. If not for the gift of Jesus, the world was doomed; we were headed for death, we were in the world without hope. The gift of Jesus was simply the love of God rea

Scriptural Highlight: ( Psalm 92:12_13 ) - "The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Labanon; plated in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the  courts of our God." The name of our devotional  in this platform is Daily Flourish and the revelation behind it is simply our scriptural highlight for today. The word of God is telling us today the undeniable attributes of the righteous: they flourish.To flourish is to succeed despite obstacles, challenges or bad climate. To flourish is to bring forth praise unto God. Today's devotional will not be enough to exhaust what it means for the righteous to flourish what is important is for you to understand what God has made us to become. Firstly, why did God compare the success of the righteous to that of palm tree? The palm tree is a tree whose growth is unique : In some conditions it may take long before it springs up but definitely it would spring up. There is nothing about

I wanted to hide what I carry. I thought that to release is to loose, Until withholding made me smell. It choked me and vexed my soul, How much more neighbours. Now I've learn't the secrete; The river was my teacher. I looked to the river and saw its beauty. It flows, glides, and reflects. Because when it outflows, then there is room for inflow. I can't hide again! I must shine! I must flow! I am the river of God. What about you?

Scriptural Highlight: ( Isaiah 60:1 ) - "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."

We want to use this opportunity to celebrate our blog  followers all over the world. You are welcome to the the month of June. We pray that this month shall deliver your expectations to your doorsteps in Jesus name.

Your background should not put your back on the ground If your parents don't believe you, God may forgive them, If your friends reject you, God may look away. After all, they were not there when God added another variety to humanity. But if you reject  yourself, If you abandon yourself to the dung bin; Serious whip for you. Only you carry what you carry. Discover in Christ. No one should know better. Not one person like you in the whole wide world! Every single man on earth: black, white, red and pink; got no duplicate. Just you and you. You are the best of your kind. Yes!

Scriptural Highlight : ( Jeremiah 2:5 ) - "This is what the Lord says: "What fault did your fathers find in me, that they strayed  so far from me? They  followed worthless idols and became worthless themselves."

Ride The Tide: No Polish for Death : When something is dead around you, please do me this favour: Don't nurture it, don't pamper it, don't polish it.  C...

When something is dead around you, please do me this favour: Don't nurture it, don't pamper it, don't polish it.  Call it back to life or buried it forever!  Holding unto dead things frustrate the new life we can have.  When dead people occupy our hearts, we frustrate the living; When dead relationships occupy us, we kill promising ones; When past failures and mistakes occupy us, we keep repeating the failure. Live today for today and for tomorrow. Just your best of life.

In this part of the world, I noticed that a lot of people vent their frustrations on others. People always look for excuses for their failure. Any little thing is blamed on the government, economy or one deficiency or the other in the environment.  Many times I would be coming back to my lodge, or going to office and suddenly on reaching my destination, the epileptic power supply will go off. The next thing people their would say is, "Ohm! This "light" has been on o and you just came and took it!" When this happens, I usually wonder whether am NEPA or PHCN that  decided to ration the power. You could see those in government blaming detractors or lack of capital for non-performance. Fire Service would blame lack of water in their tanker for not showing up on time to answer distress calls, and the list goes on.  Am not relegating the fact that genuine excuses hinder performance but you would believe with me that as long as there is still someone to tak

    Today! There is no better day than today. Today is a gift, take it, treasure it. Today is the reality of yesterday's hopes. You prayed yesterday, today is the answer. The best way to start something is start it, There is no guru, there is no expert; The experts and gurus of today are the yesterday's "journey just come". They just learnt how to bypass yesterday's mistakes and failures; They learnt to do it better. If I were you: I would pray now than wait for a special tomorrow; I would believe today; I would sing my best song today; I would dance my best dance today, no special song tomorrow; I would rejoice today, I would love today; I would live my best life today.

The problem is not in the season.  What matters is the person going through seasons. The God of summer is the God of winter. Other birds struggle to flap their wings but the eagles wait for the wind to rise. They mount their wings and soar.

REJOICE IN THE WORD OF GOD Scriptural Highlight: ( Psalm 119:162 ) - "I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil." From the gospel of John, chapter 1, we can deduce that the Word of God is not just what was spoken but a person: the Word is Jesus; the Word was in the beginning with God; all things were made through Him; the Word is life; the Word is the light of men; and the Word has dominion over darkness.  So from our scriptural highlight for today, we can see the reaction of Brother David: he rejoices when he catches a revelation from the word of God. Since the word of God is a person, when He is revealed, divinity is revealed;  because the word of God was in the beginning, Moses caught the Word and he wrote the book of beginnings; since through the Word, God created things, when the Word is revealed creative miracles also take place; since the Word is life, anyone who receives the word of God receives eternal life; and since the Word is light, it giv
