ENOUGH IS ENOUGH:MY BARRENNESS MUST END

In Genesis 1: 27, 28:
²⁷So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
²⁸And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. (KJV)

The Word of God declares that God commanded the first family to be fruitful and multiply. God cannot command you to do anything He has not empowered you to do. You must realize that He has already made provisions for you to be able to succeed in whatsoever He has commanded you to do. God cannot lie. The Scriptures cannot be broken. Throughout the Bible, there is nobody who truly served God and remained barren.

You need discernment

‘Do not neglect your gift…’
(1 Tim 4:14)

‘A prophet visited our church and He pointed me out in the congregation and said, “You have a gift of discernment.”
A few years later when we were living in another city, the same prophet visited our church there. He again pointed me out and said, “Has anyone ever told you that you have a gift of discernment of spirits?” I said, “Yes, you did several years ago.”
See,in your business,you need discernment.In your marital life,you need discernment.In your marriage,you need discernment,In school,you need discernment.
It is one thing to know that you have a spiritual gift of discernment—it is quite another thing to know what to do with it, and how to use it.

The gift of discernment is a powerful weapon in times of spiritual warfare and of great assistance when breakthrough is needed in our personal or church life.

Here are 8 ways that you can grow your spiritual gift of discernment of spirits. And yes, some of these I have learned the hard way—through trial and error.

1. Source It
It is vital that we understand the difference between discernment that is from the Holy Spirit and suspicion, which can masquerade as discernment, but is actually sourced in our own human nature. This is a danger that can trip even mature discerners up. The best means of preventing this is our intimate relationship with God.

2. Plant It
‘Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.’ Ps 92:13.
As with all prophetic people, discerners need to be cared for and pastored in a church environment.The honest truth also is that you can succeed at your business and relationships if you have the gift of discernment,to know who is real and fake.
When we are planted in the life of a healthy church, we can flourish and grow in our gift. However, we must remember that it will not always be smooth sailing in community life—even in the healthiest of churches.

3. Submit It
It is vital, and a matter of protection for others and ourselves, that we operate in our spiritual gift of discernment with accountability, and under God-given leadership.
It is important that we encourage our insights to be weighed up (1 Cor 14:29). As the Apostle Paul said, ‘For we know in part and we prophesy in part.’ (1 Cor 13:9)
The discernment that we receive is incomplete without the insights of others, who will have different pieces of the puzzle and complementary gifts. (1 Cor 12:12-27)
Feedback is also a great tool to help us grow in our discernment.

4. Purify It It is possible for the expression of a discernment gift to be affected by our response to negative experiences that we have had in our lives.
I had prayer ministry to help me break free of fear associated with early experiences of demonic encounters. I also received ministry in relation to difficulties with authority. As a result, I have a much more useful gift.
I have also had to grow a great deal in my character—a journey that is ongoing!

5. Study It

Find out what the Bible has to say about the gift of discernment:

Read examples of people who encountered unseen spiritual realities—how did they respond? What did they do as a result of their experiences?

How and when did Jesus use the gift of discernment to minister to people?

What does the Apostle Paul say in his epistles about how spiritual gifts operate in the context of church life and ministry?

6. Develop It

As with other gifts, discernment can be developed and strengthened.
The ability to receive a revelation from God is only one aspect of this spiritual gift. Other aspects include:

Having the wisdom to know what to do once you have received the discernment,
How and when to share your insight
How to weigh up what you have received against scripture
Procedures for submitting an insight, and so on.

Seek to be trained or mentored in the context of Christian community, where you have safe people who can give you feedback and encourage you on the journey.
Look for good training, along with books and other resources on the topic of spiritual warfare and related areas.

7. Use it

Don’t hold back. Even if you are starting out and tentative, God can use you powerfully. Use your gift of discernment to help guard and grow your church.
If you discern warfare or have a warning, remember that God’s heart is always to redeem and restore. Seek the Father for a promise and His outcome.
The gift of discernment can also help give you insight as to how to respond and pray for breakthrough in any situation.

6 Tips to Avoid Temptation

God does not promise that we will never be tempted, but that when we are, He will provide a way of escape. However, there are things that we can do as a Christian to avoid unnecessary temptation. Many times temptation can be completely avoided by following these simple tips:

Pray
In the model prayer that Jesus gave to his disciples in Matthew 6, He taught them to ask God to lead them away from temptation (Matthew 6:13). A daily relationship with God in prayer is a first step to avoiding temptation.

Use the Word of God
There are many good verses that will help you overcome certain temptations.memorizing bible passages targeted to combat your areas of temptation will be a protection and defense. 2 Corinthians 10:4 and 5 talk about pulling down things that get a stronghold in our life.
You need to work on memorizing a list of Bible verses that will help you avoid temptation. You cannot rely on finding a Bible at the moment of temptation. These verses have to become second nature to you.
Spend time in God’s word daily. Make it a habit. By knowing you will be confronted by the Bible in your reading tomorrow it can help you stay focused on God today.

Understand Your Personal Weaknesses
Not everyone is tempted in the same way. What is a struggle for one person may not be the least bit tempting to another person. For example one person may be tempted with smoking. For the next guy, smoking has never had a foothold on the person and therefore is not at all tempting.
James 1:14 says that we are drawn away with our own lusts. This indicates that each person has their own week areas to deal with. You need to understand your own weakness so that you will know how to combat and avoid it.

Flee Temptation
God has promised to make a way to escape temptation. If you will look for the escape route then you can flee the temptation. Many times this way of escape is to literally walk (or run) away. Temptation often comes when you find yourself in certain situations or places. When you recognize one of those situations it is time to pack up your stuff and get out of there. (1 Corinthians 6:18; 10:14; 1 Timothy 6:11; 2 Timothy 2:22)

Don’t be Discouraged
You should not become complacent about your sin. But you should also not allow it to defeat you. Sin is much more serious than eating too much dessert, but allow me to make an analogy. If you are on a diet and eat an extra cookie that you were not supposed to, does it make sense to quit your diet and eat the rest of the bag? The truth is that one extra cookie is a minor thing compared to how many good choices you made the previous week. It sounds silly to quit a diet because of 100 extra calories. Yet people do it all the time.
Realize that you probably will fall to temptation on occasion, but that is no reason to quit your Christian walk. Don’t accept your sin as if it doesn’t matter, but also realize that you have a choice in your future actions.

Create an Accountability Network
As Christians we have direct access to God. There is no place in the Bible where we are taught that we must confess our sins to others to haveforgiveness from God.However, the Bible does teach that creating accountability with someone else can help you in your struggle against temptation (James 5:16).
You do not need to go into detail with your accountability partner about about your struggles, but they do need to know how to pray for you. Find someone who is a mature Christian. Often your pastor can fill this role, but it can also be a fellow church member. Tell them that you are struggling in a certain area. Look through the Bible together finding verses that will be a help to you. Have your friend ask you occasionally how you were doing in this area. Once a week is usually often enough.

Man Nabbed For Stealing Okada Rider's Manhood

Viral footage has emerged of an Indian man who was apprehendedrecently in Satellite Town, Lagos,Nigeria for allegedly stealing a commercial motorcyclist’s manhood.
Sources say the disturbing development took place at about 5pm on the said date.
Witnesses, most of whom were motorists themselves, claimed the unnamed Indian alighted from a bus which was headed to mile 2 and asked the okada rider for directions to some place in Satellite Town.
Manhood alleged missing

He then ran after the Indian man who was already on his way, shouting to draw the attention of people.
His fellow bike riders joined the chase and stopped the Indian man.
The okada rider, whose name is withheld, had asked to take the accused to his destination, and they agreed on a fee.
Ladunliadi News reports that on getting to the gate just before Navy town, the Indian instructed the okada rider to stop as he had arrived at his destination.
On getting off the bike, the suspect paid the local bike rider far more than was due for the distance covered.

The bike man was reported to have discovered just at the moment of exchange that his private part had gone missing.
He then ran after the Indian man who was already on his way, shouting to draw the attention of people.
His fellow bike riders joined the chase and stopped the Indian man.

6 Things Sharp-Dressed Men Never Say

Society treats a well-dressed man better than the man who is too lazy to care about his appearance.The change is not just an internal boost to the wearer’s confidence – but also creates a halo effect around you. In essence, creating opportunities that would not exist if you were poorly dressed .As a result – there are certain phrases you will never hear from a sharp-dressed man because they would be unnecessary.

1. “Only shallow people care about how you look.”

This is always the excuse of the man who goes out in grubby pants and a T-shirt, and then complains about his luck with women.
It has a certain allure as an argument, mostly because it lets the ill-dressed man feel not only excused but justified – he’s the mature, intelligent person here!
All those girls who keep passing him up are just shallow and only interested in the surface of things.
Wrong, of course.
Looking sharp isn’t about putting on an illusion. It’s about a mindset

2“Excuse me! I’ve been waiting 30 minutes for a table.”

Want to be ignored? Dress like someone inconsequential.
Now, there are limits here – if you’re going to a really high-class, top-reviewed restaurant at the peak of its popularity, just wearing a decent suit isn’t going to get you in any faster.
Everyone that’s going to a place like that will be wearing a decent suit.
But for the most part, if you dress like someone who has a bit of influence and station in the world, people will be quicker to make sure you’ve been attended to.

3. “Don’t worry, you can trust me.”

Working-class men who provide a service through manual labor, are generally not the targets of fashion advice.
But they still benefit from dressing well.
A construction worker in slacks and a good polo looks like someone you’d hire to build your dream home.
The same guy in a filthy T-shirt and his painter’s pants looks like someone who might cause unexpected delays and overcharge you.
There’s a time and a place for everything. When you’re working hard, dress practically.
But when you’re doing business – hit the shower, comb the hair, and throw on a decent shirt and maybe a blazer.

4. “I’m not a student!”

This is especially a big one for men living in college towns – the sloppier you look, the more likely people are going to think you’re an undergrad.
That’s useful if you’re trying to sneak into a “free admission for current students” concert without paying the cover charge, but the rest of the time – assuming you’re not, in fact, an undergrad – you probably don’t want to be mistaken for one.
Upgrade the jeans to slacks, replace the T-shirt with something collared, and throw a decent belt and shoes on.
Suddenly, no one will ever mistake you for a college student on his way between classes again.

5. “I’m successful.”

If you have to brag about your income, it’s because you’re not dressing as well as you could.
It’s also rude. So don’t do it – just dress nicely, instead.
There are a lot of high-powered professionals out there who expect real respect for their achievements – but who are still wearing off-the-rack suits with no adjustments.
And they don’t look like world-beaters. They look like middle managers at struggling companies.
If you start with high-quality clothing and you get it adjusted to fit, you’ll never have to tell people that you’re making big bucks.

6. “I feel strange looking this sharp. Are people looking at me?”

You can substitute another word for “butt” if you want to. We won’t judge you.
Looking good requires a decent fit. And what do you know – a decent fit also makes your clothing more comfortable to wear!
You even get a circular effect. It’s more comfortable to wear, which means you spend less time fidgeting or tugging unattractively on your crotch, which makes you look even better than the guys in unfitted clothes.
So by taking the time to learn their measurements and get the majority of their clothing adjusted, sharp-dressed men are also sparing themselves the discomfort of cheap, off-the-rack clothing.

Man kills girlfriend for rejecting his marriage proposal after.....?

POLICE in Imo State have begun investigating the death of Onyinyechi Okegbulam from Egbu in Owerri North Local Government Area who was killed by her boyfriend for refusing his marriage proposal.

In a gruesome murder, the 22-year-old Onyinyechi was, until her untimely death, a final year student of Federal Polytechnic, Nekede in Owerri West Local Government Area of the state. She was apparently shot in the head at close range by her supposed boyfriend in the village after she rejected his offer of marriage.

Eyewitnesses said that the deceased was lured out of her family home by the boyfriend at night after she rejected him and was then shot. Another source claimed that soon after shooting the girl, the young man tried to smuggle Onyinyechi’s lifeless body into his car but scampered for safety when a woman raised alarm, which attracted several people to the scene.

It is believed that the ditched boyfriend was responsible for the entire educational expenses of the girl and it was this that infuriated him. Police are now said to be looking for the boyfriend, although it has not yet been confirmed if an arrest has been made.

12 Signs He's Only Interested in Sex and not marriage

If he really interested in relationship that will end up in marriage or he wants you to be his sex tou,these are the signs you will know so that you don't waste your time with such people.

1. He only texts you after 1 a.m. It's a scientific fact that all booty calls happen after 1 a.m. All those cars you see driving around after 12:59? People out in the streets past 1? They're all on their way to a booty call.
2. He gets frustrated when you invite him over to watch a movie and actually just want to watch a movie. Most guys would be like, "Alright, cool. If I can't have sex, I guess actually getting to watch the entirety of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is a pretty good consolation prize." But when you swat away his thigh-climbing hand he's suddenly tired and has to go home.
3. You never meet his friends. The less information you have about him, the easier it is for him to ghost you. If you don't know who he hangs out with, or where he lives, or what his last name is, he can disappear like a phantom into the night. A phantom who banged you a bunch of times and then stopped answering texts, which would make for a shittier Broadway play than the kind of phantom that hangs out in operas. But a phantom nonetheless.

4. He makes it really hard for you to sleep over. He never straight-up says you have to leave (That wouldn't get him a next hookup!) but he always has a "thing" really early the next morning. A "thing with friends" or "a work thing" or "some family thing." You know families don't have picnics at 5 a.m. though.
5. He always hands you everything before you leave. Did you forget your bra? Some lipstick? Your purse? A single bobby pin? If you never forget anything there, you can never have an excuse to show up when he doesn't want you to. If you tried to show up unsolicited anyway, you'd probably find the place abandoned and boarded up, and some neighbor would tell you, "Why, that place has been abandoned for years!" like some episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark.
6. You've never been on a real date. Dates are for men who consider themselves boyfriends, not men who consider themselves fuck buddies.
7. He always insists on splitting the cost of the post-coital pizza you ordered. If one of you doesn't pay for the pizza, it can't be considered a date. He will follow #6 if it kills him.
8. He's "busy" whenever you text him about something personal or emotional. Who has time to pause his game of Madden to talk to you about things like how you feel? If your text about your grandma passing away isn't attached to a sexy picture, he won't even bother opening it. Guys who just want you for sex aren't going to spend time playing the boyfriend.
9. He always tries to initiate sex when you hang out. An easy way to tell the difference between guys who like having sex with you a lot and guys who only like having sex with you is this: Think back to a time when the two of you were together but weren't having sex for more than an hour. If you can't do that, he only wants you for sex.
10. The only thing he's ever bought you that could be considered romantic is a vibrating cock ring. He was like, "Hey, I have a surprise for you," and you could hear a faint vibration, and he dropped his pants and honestly expected you to be pumped about it.
11. Every conversation turns flirty/sexual. Every time you talk or text, it immediately turns into a conversation about having sex. He's stopped even trying to be witty about it. "Oh, you're at the grocery store right now? I sure would like to have sex with you … at the grocery store ;-)"
12. He texts you to meet up with a group, but wants to go back to your place/his place as soon as you get there. You might think you're about to meet all of his friends at some bar, but when you get there, he's already waiting outside with his coat and some condoms.

Change yourself first, before you try changing others

Being a frequent flier I have always been exposed to this message before takeoff, but never did I take notice of the real meaning behind it. That is until Jim Rohn came along and opened my eyes to it. The message in question here is when the stewardess explains that in an emergency the oxygen masks that drop out from above should be worn by the person first, before he/she tries to help others.

This happens to be one of the most valuable life lessons, i.e. Take care of yourself first, before you try to help others. William Shakespeare said, “To thine own self be true.” Your greatest responsibility is towards yourself first. Once that is taken care of, you can start caring for others. As it’s said ‘If you want to lift somebody up, you have be on higher ground first’. But unfortunately, many people think that this viewpoint is of self-interest and narcissistic. They think that they have to sacrifice themselves for others. If that would have been true then why do you think Jesus Christ say, “Love you neighbor as you love yourself”. Underline the word ‘as’. If you don’t love yourself, you just cannot love others. Period.

Ask yourself this question. If you were 10 times wiser, 10 times healthier and 10 times richer, do you think you would be more valuable to your family, friends and society? Of course, yes! You can only do more, if you be more. You cannot feed the hungry if you yourself are hungry. That’s the way life works. Don’t go looking to correct others when you yourself are faulty. In Matthew 7,5 Jesus Christ mentions, “First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will be able to see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye”. And how does one take care of himself first? Through personal-development. You have to increase your knowledge, read the books, apply the knowledge in your life and finally, teach others. That’s how you increase your value to the society.

So the next time you see an airline crew, remember this valuable life lesson – Take care of yourself first, and then others.
