TRUTH SERIES 7:THE POWER OF THE 2ND STANZA

Let’s take a look at the 2nd stanza of our National Anthem .Its wonderful to know the power it carries.

Oh God of creation,

Direct our noble cause

Guide our leaders right

Help our youths the truth to know

In love and honesty to grow

And living just and true

Great lofty heights attain

To build a nation where peace

And justice shall reign.


It’s so amazing that Nigeria is one of the country in the world that has a legislated and constituted anthem of prayers. Let us analyze it line by line. This shows that God has great destiny for our nation, but it’s a pity that we are where we are today. But in the midst of all the corruption, kidnappings,killings, injustice, poverty and embezzlement. There is hope for us if only God can answer all our Prayer requests in the 2nd stanza of the Anthem. Then our present predicaments will be a thing of the past.Lets analyze the first line "OH GOD OF CREATION"


OH GOD OF CREATION.

And the children of Israelite cried unto God, And HE Heard their cry. EXO 2:23-24

This first line symbolizes a cry and call unto God for help. Any country that must make meaningful economic and infrastructural development must make God their foundation and source of help. Only Righteousness can exalt a Nation. As we turn to God of creation for help, He will turn the destiny of our Nation around as He did for the Israelite.


I believe u have been challenge by this short write up. See u in the next series as we analyze the 2nd line “DIRECT OUR NOBLE CAUSE” .Keep on making a difference Nigeria is more than map, it is you and I that make up Nigeria.

The wealth of Nigeria is not in her oil but is in you and I.We are the greatest asset of our Nation.

Nigeria will be great again!

TRUTH SERIES 5:CREATING NEW NIGERIA WITH OUR WORDS

" In the beginning, when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was formless wasteland, and darkness covered the abyss, while a mighty wind swept over the waters, then God said," Let there be light," and there was light."- (Genesis1: 1-3)


The above Bible quotation is a reminder that the first creation happened through the spoken Word, Furthermore, the unchanging nature of the creating forces indicating that man's true nature is also unchangeable.

God has also given man the creative power through the word. Everyone including you has the power to speak positive words, but sometimes we choose to speak negatively because we have develop a negative mental attitude towards a situation. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down or even the change the situations around us.


Because of many challenges facing our Country(Nigeria),Most times ,the people speak negatively against our leaders,the government and the future of the country.words like Nigeria is jagajaga,I cant make in Nigeria,it cant never change,it is not possible and so on does not take us any where further rather it draws backward.it is true that some of our leaders might be guilty,but speaking negatively does not move us ahead an inch.

If we pray for our country,we also need to speak positively,our words are powerful,because it also pushes also to go ahead to do positive actions.Inspite of our challenges

let us all keep hope alive.let us create the new Nigeria we want to see and live in by our words.Let us all have a different attitude like Caleb, in spite of the giants in the land ,He said they are well able to go and take over the land,and they did.
You can change your world by changing your words... Remember, death and life are in the power of the tongue.
Joel Osteen

God bless Nigeria.

TRUTH SERIES 4-WHAT ARE YOU SEEING ? OBSTACLE OR OPPORTUNITY

TRUTH SERIES 4-WHAT ARE YOU SEEING ? OBSTACLE OR OPPORTUNITY

Two sales men who work for a shoe company were sent on a market survey in a village with a population of about 30,000 people. The two sales men came back with two different reports .They both got to the village and discovered the people their don’t wear shoe, sales man A reported that since the people don’t wear shoes, there is no need shipping shoes to the village. He concluded that the company should look else where to expand the market. while sales man B reported that since the people don’t wear shoes, that it’s a great opportunity for them to expand their market to the village and also ship more shoes to the village. The difference between marketer A and B is that one saw obstacle while the other saw opportunity to make more money and make a difference the lives of the people.

The same scenario is what is happening in our country, while many Nigerians are waiting at the different embassies to travel out of the country ,many foreign business men are coming in to settle down to set up and run businesses because they have discover a huge opportunities. nkon ta wa lo si sokoto ,wa ni sokoto wa ( A Yoruba saying) meaning what we are looking for a far of is right where we are.

What are you seeing? Are you seeing challenges or opportunities? Because in the midst of our numerous problems lies solution if we can see. Indeed there are many problems around because there are many Nigerians too around to provide the solutions.

Let us Quit the blame game and take up the challenge to see and think differently.

I pray that God will open the eyes of Nigerian Youths to see. Amen
