WAYS TO PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS.....
Josh 1:8: "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success."0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 45 Visualizações -
The Fork in the Road
The road forked. One path, broad and alluring, promised shortcuts to Elias's desires and Lucian's dark power, but reeked of decay and echoed with whispers of fear. The other path was narrower, marked by the footprints of countless faithful before, winding upward towards light (Matthew 7:13-14).
Elias looked longingly at the broad path, clutching his rotting fruit, too weary to see its emptiness.
Lucian, driven by the chains, saw only the illusion of dominance it offered.
Miriam, feeling the supportive strength beside her and the lightness of her well-made yoke, turned towards the narrow path.
Why God's Yoke?
Miriam understood:
1. Shared Burden
God's yoke is designed for partnership. We are "yoked together with" Christ (2 Corinthians 6:14 MSG - implied). We don't pull alone; He shoulders the impossible weight.
"Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you" (Psalm 55:22).
2. True Rest
The "lightness"isn't absence of work, but the absence of soul-crushing oppression found under Satan's chains or Self's insatiable hunger. It's the deep rest (Matthew 11:28) that comes from surrender, forgiveness, and knowing you are loved and led.
3. Purposeful Weight
The burden of discipleship – loving others, pursuing holiness, serving – has weight, but it's the weight of meaning and eternal value, not decay or chains.
"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all" (2 Corinthians 4:17).
4. Freedom from Bondage
God's yoke is the only one that offers true freedom – freedom from sin's slavery (Satan's yoke) and the futile striving of Self.
"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery"(Galatians 5:1).
Elias's burden rotted. Lucian's chains crushed. But Miriam's yoke, though requiring steps of faith, led her forward in partnership, peace, and purpose, her soul finding rest even as her hands worked.
The choice wasn't between weight and weightlessness, but between burdens that destroy and a yoke that, shared with the Savior, truly gives life.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 30 Visualizações -
Worthy of your time!
She was drowning.
And nobody noticed…
Nobody, except her.
It was June 2022, at the World Championships in Budapest.
Anita Álvarez, an American artistic swimmer with Mexican roots, was performing a flawless routine. But when her performance ended… she didn’t come up for air.
She had lost consciousness.
Her body floated for a few seconds, then began to sink.
Slowly. All the way to the bottom of the pool.
The audience didn’t notice. Neither did the judges.
Everyone was clapping.
But her coach, Andrea Fuentes, noticed.
She knew Anita—knew exactly how long it took her to surface.
She felt in her heart that something was wrong.
Without thinking twice, she dove in.
Fully dressed. Shoes and all.
She swam straight down, grabbed Anita by the waist,
and brought her back up.
She saved her life.
This story left me thinking…
Who knows you well enough to notice when you’re not okay, even if you’re still smiling?
Who would dive in for you without hesitation when you no longer have the strength to come up for air?
And more importantly…
Would you be that person for someone else?
Are you present enough in your loved ones’ lives to sense the moment they start to sink?
Or are you just another spectator, clapping, not realizing that inside, they’re fading?
In this life, we all need someone who doesn’t just see us—
but truly notices us.
Someone who knows when we’re about to give up,
and has the courage to jump in and save us.

Good morning God's beloved. Thank God for another day. Today, The hand of the Lord has pulled you and your family out of every pit that has kept you on one spot. As it was with Jacob after Isaac had blessed him in (Genesis 27:25-29), your smell will begin to change. You are uncursable. You are not only uncursable, but everyone that attempts to curse you is already cursed.
Your children will build houses, fully furnished, and hand over the keys to you. God will make sure it is well with your business, your family, your career and your ministry. You won’t lose anything to the devil anymore. Nobody will take your blessing. No more leakages in your finances. May your home be open to angels. You won’t lose your blessings anymore! I see a new change coming!

Fasting + Faith = Breakthrough
Moses fasted 40 days—& met God face-to-face.
Esther fasted 3 days—& saved her people.
Daniel fasted 21 days—& his prayer was heard on day one, but delayed in the 2nd heaven as angels warred. Michael broke through. Victory followed persistence.
Jesus fasted 40 days—& defeated every temptation.
Paul fasted often—& received divine direction.
It activates heaven’s help when faith leads the way.
(Daniel 10, Isaiah 58)🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🙏🏻🙌🏾0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 51 Visualizações -

*COLOS, ON COLOS, COLORADO. A SYNTHETIC PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCE KILLING OUR YOUTHS* .
By: Hon Chief Ezechukwu N Obonna (ISSUP, ISAAC, WFAD)
Special Adviser On Narcotics And Illicit Drug Monitoring (IMSG)
June 09, 2025.
Colorado, which is popularly called *COLOS* in Nigerian street life, is a synthetic drug designed to mimic the effects of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive compound in marijuana that triggers the highness. Colos is a strain of cannabis/marijuana, but unlike natural marijuana, which is derived from the cannabis plant, Colos is made by spraying synthetic chemicals onto dried plant material, such as shredded leaves or grass. These chemicals are engineered to bind to the same brain receptors as THC but often with far more potency and unpredictability.
The specific chemical ingredients in Colos often vary between batches and are typically unregulated and untested for safety, making the drug highly dangerous. Some variants have been linked to serious health issues, including hallucinations, seizures, and, in rare cases, organ damage or failure.
Someone is being said to be "On Colos" when the person is under the influence of Colos.
_The instant side effects of smoking Colorado_ :
Immediately upon smoking Colos, the user may experience a range of immediate physical and mental effects. These can vary depending on the specific chemicals used in producing the Colos, the dose, and the individual's health status.
*Physical Effects Of Colos*
_Respiratory Problems And Shortness of Breath_ :
Smoking Colos can irritate the lungs, leading to coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Prolonged use may increase the risk of developing chronic respiratory conditions.
_Dizziness and elevated heart rate_ :
Many smokers report a rapid heartbeat, dizziness, and nausea shortly after consumption. These symptoms can be particularly dangerous for individuals with underlying heart conditions.
_Dry mouth, red eyes, and appetite changes_ :
Similar to natural marijuana, Colos may cause dry mouth and red eyes. Users might also experience changes in appetite, either increased or decreased.
*Mental Effects*
_Altered Perception And Euphoria_ :
The synthetic chemicals in Colos can induce feelings of euphoria or highness and altered sensory perception. However, these effects are often accompanied by negative reactions.
_Hallucinations, Anxiety and Paranoia_ :
Many users experience heightened anxiety, paranoia, and even hallucinations. These effects can be intense and distressing, leading to dangerous behaviors.
*HOW TO QUIT SMOKING COLOS*
Recognising the need to quit is the first step toward recovery. Individuals struggling with Colos addiction should endeavor to seek help.
*Treatment Options* :
_Counseling and therapy_ :
Behavioral therapies can help individuals understand the root causes of their addiction and develop coping strategies.
_Support Groups_ :
Connecting with others facing similar challenges can provide encouragement and accountability. Support groups like Marijuana/Colos Anonymous will help a lot.
_Medical assistance_ :
Medications may be prescribed for detoxification, manage withdrawal symptoms, and reduce cravings.
Building a strong support system of family, friends, and healthcare professionals is essential in the recovery process.
*ADDICTION PREVENTION*
Raising awareness about the dangers of Colos is crucial in preventing its spread. Educational programs in schools, communities, and media outlets can inform the public about the risks associated with synthetic drugs.*COLOS, ON COLOS, COLORADO.
