The calmer we are, the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do. When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.

The powers of the mind should be concentrated; as the darkest places reveal their secrets before the penetrating rays of sun, so will the concentrated mind penetrate its own innermost secrets.

There is only one sin. That is weakness.... The only saint is that soul that never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game.

Both the forces of good and evil will keep the universe alive for us, until we awake from our dreams and give up this building of mud pies.

WE ARE STILL IN THE MONTH OF CELEBRATING FATHER'S

Be perfectly resigned, perfectly unconcerned; then alone can you do any true work. No eyes can see the real forces; we can only see the results. Put out self, forget it; just let God work, it is His business.

""Comfort"" is no test of truth; on the contrary, truth is often far from being ""comfortable"".

After every disaster, no matter how great, life goes on - if not in this world, then in some other. An attitude of relaxed acceptance toward whatever happens to you will bring you great inner peace and happiness.

How can there be peace among the nations, when there is no peace in our homes, offices, clubs, schools and in own hearts?

The thought manifests as the word; The word manifests as the deed; The deed develops into habit; And habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care.

Affirm always, as my Guru taught: 'What ever comes of itself, let it come.' Accept criticism impartially. Remember, What is simply is; and what is not cannot be spoken into existence. Truth, in all things, is the final arbiter.

Hope you all had a beautiful day?

If you do not know the laws of right conduct, you cannot form your character.

Be not idle. Do the best of which you are capable. Then accept whatever happens! That is way to Peace!

"NO VICTOR, NO VANQUISHED”? NO, SIR. JUST THE BLOOD OF THE INNOCENT
A Truthful Dissection of Gen. Gowon’s Crocodile Tears

✍Ugochimereze Chinedu Asuzu

"I always remember the Civil War. It was the most difficult period of my life. It was not my choice…” So says General Yakubu Gowon: decades after the fact, as if the burden of memory alone could exonerate a man from the burden of responsibility.

But memory, stripped of remorse, becomes theatre. And this latest performance by the old General, wrapped in prayerful tones and wistful platitudes, is exactly that a theatre of moral evasion. What was presented as reflection was in fact deflection. A man who presided over the darkest chapter in Nigeria’s history now seeks to launder his conscience with the sponge of spirituality, mouthing prayers as if that were enough to bury three million truths beneath the soil of forgetfulness.

No, sir. You did not pray. You played. You played politics with people’s lives. You played Russian roulette with the destiny of a region. You played central command while entire communities burned. You stood at the gates of peace and walked away. The blood did not flow because you had no choice, it flowed because you made a choice. And the choice was war.

You stood beside Odumegwu Ojukwu at Aburi in Ghana. There, both of you spoke, agreed, shook hands and made a pact. You returned to Lagos to a hero’s welcome, but before the ink of trust could dry, you tore it apart. You listened to federal hawks, buried Aburi under the rubble of Decree No. 8, and turned your face from peace. You betrayed a solemn covenant for the sake of power. That betrayal, not the first shot fired, is where the war truly began.

The records are stubborn. They do not bend to nostalgia. They remind us that before a single Biafran soldier took up arms, thousands of Igbos had been hacked down in the North. Pregnant women butchered. Children beheaded. Men dismembered in full daylight. Railway stations were turned into morgues. Churches, into chambers of death. Kaduna. Kano. Jos. The North descended into madness, and the East was served grief on a plate of silence.

You, sir, presided over that silence. You were Commander-in-Chief, not a curious passerby. You issued words but withheld justice. You gave speeches, but not shelter. You watched a people bleed and called it unfortunate. And now, years later, you whisper: "It was never out of hatred." But hatred needs no introduction when its fruit is genocide.

And then came your famous phrase, carved into Nigeria’s post-war psyche: “No victor, no vanquished.” It sounded noble. It rang loud. But it rang false. Because the war ended, yes, but justice never began. Biafrans were not vanquished by force alone, they were buried beneath the rubble of reconstruction. Their economy was stripped. Their currency devalued. Their children starved. Their land mined and their dignity mocked. What you called reintegration, we lived as retribution. What you labeled reconciliation, we endured as marginalisation. The victor danced in national attire. The vanquished crawled through national amnesia.

Sir, you had the chance to become a Mandela long before South Africa birthed one. You had the moment. The world watched. The African continent stood still. But you chose empire over empathy. You chose command over compassion. You chose to keep Nigeria one by breaking a people in half. And now, the same mouth that sanctioned the guns says, "I prayed to God." Perhaps you did. But God is not mocked by crocodile tears. Not when the skulls of infants still haunt the red soil of Nsukka, Aba, Umuahia, and Onitsha.

Prayer is not repentance. Repentance begins with truth. And the truth is that you, along with others, enabled a war that was avoidable. You squandered the peace we almost had at Aburi. You enabled pogroms with your silence. You denied justice its wings and handed the world a bullet instead. And when it was all done, you wrapped the pain in poetry and hoped the music would make us forget.

But we remember. Not because we hate. But because we bleed.

This is not a call to bitterness. It is a call to honesty. To name what happened. To look the children of Biafra in the eye and say: Yes, you were wronged. Yes, we failed you. Yes, the war was avoidable. And no, it should never have happened.

Until then, sir, do not cloak yourself in prayer while justice lies unclothed. Do not speak of love when you could not uphold truth. Do not say “it was not my choice” when history has proven otherwise. And above all, do not try to rewrite what we lived.

You may now carry the Bible in one hand. But the other hand still drips with memories. Your legacy may wear the robe of elder statesmanship. But it remains stained by silence, by betrayal, and by the bones of those who trusted your word at Aburi.

So here, General Gowon, is what history truly says:
You may cry now, but the tears do not wash the blood away.
You may kneel today, but that does not undo the horror of yesterday.
You may pray, but the ghosts still answer with questions.
And until Nigeria confronts its past with courage, it will never know peace that lasts.

We forgive. But we do not forget. We move on. But we do not move blind.

Because truth, bitter as it may be - is still better than convenient lies.

*DEFEATING HOUSEHOLD WICKEDNESS*

*Job 14:1* makes it very clear to us that this world is a world full of trouble. The second name for this world is trouble.
Some start their battles from the womb. Some start as young men and women. Some start at middle age. Some start at old age. The majority of these battles are being fuelled by enemies within.
Job 14:1 (KJV) says, ‘Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.”

The book of John gives the world another name. It says, “The whole world lieth in wickedness.”

That is, there is a big bed on which the whole world is lying, which is *wickedness.*
Wickedness is when you have done nobody harm, offended nobody, yet they are doing you harm. So this Job 14:1 tells us that this is a world of battles.

In the school of warfare, there are sixty categories of battles that men fight. You may be fighting your battles now; you may have started already, but it is good for you that is here to know that the devils that fought your parents will fight you. You may say, “But I am okay now.” No, they are just waiting for you to grow up so that you can be mature enough for them to fight you. So, everybody has a battle to fight.

*There is:*

• a battle called the rage of the wicked. They are raging against you; you do not need to commit any offence.

• the battle of the crying blood. You shed blood, probably through abortions, and the blood is now crying against you.

• the pursuing avenger, where you have done something wrong and the enemy is now pursuing you to avenge it.

• the wicked household.
• the battle called ‘the affliction of the righteous’, from which the Lord said that He will deliver you out of them all. Not the affliction of the sinner.

• the battle for destiny. Sometimes, when the destiny of somebody is announced in heaven, the enemy hears it and fights the person because of the destiny.
• the battle for fulfilment.
• the battle for relevance.
• The battle for wholeness (your health). A lot of people are battling this daily.
• The battle for your staff of bread. The enemy may be attacking your career.
• the battle for promotion. The enemy does not want you to be elevated. He wants to keep you where you are. Let your amen be sevenfold volcanic.

There is the battle:
• to enlarge your coast. For you to expand or enlarge what you are doing is a battle. You started your business from a kiosk or small shop. To now expand it to a bigger shop is a battle.
• against marriage. There is a great battle going on against marriages now, and I want you to understand this very well.
A man of God was flying to South Africa. There was a man beside him in the plane who was mumbling words, and it was as if he was praying. For a long time, he kept mumbling those words like a prayer. So the man of God was happy that a prayer warrior was beside him. When he stopped, the man of God said, “Oh, that is nice! I can see that you were praying here.” The man replied, “Yes”. Then the man of God asked, “What were you praying about?” He then replied that he was actually not praying; he was cursing marriages, especially Christian marriages. There is an attack on marriages.
• that is programmed. It waits for you to get to a level before pulling you down.
• of the yoke with unbelievers. When you want to bless whom God has cursed, you will have problems.
• of conspiracy in the heavenlies.
• of envious enemies. You have not done anything wrong; it is just out of pure envy.
• of vandalised destiny.
• called “Jonah syndrome”, which applies to many here. That is, God is giving you an assignment, but you are dodging it. That kind of battle – no deliverance or man of God can help you; you need to repent and do what God wants you to do.
• against the wasters. They wait for people to gather things and then waste them.
• against the emptiers. They wait for a person’s cup to be full and then empty it.
• against anti-prosperity powers. That is, the person can be alive and can be strong but cannot prosper.
• known as ‘the marine warfare’. As a matter of fact, many people’s benefits are inside the bank in the waters. And this is a very, very serious situation.

There is the:
• battle against children.
• mystery of strongholds.
• battle of closed doors.
• near-success syndrome battle.
• battle called “the embargo”.
• battle of environmental attacks.
• battle with the spirit of death and hell. If you come from a family where people are dying very young, this is the problem.
• battle of Star Hunters.
• battle of collective captivity.
• battle of dream criminals.
• the mystery of seduction.
• the battle of stagnancy.
• the battle of loneliness.
• the battle of territorial bondage.
• the battle of spiritual load upon the head.
• the battle of placental bondage.
• the battle from the palace, for those from royal families.
• character battle.
• ‘fighting the devil that fought your parents’ battle.
• the battle of covenants and curses. Curses have strong power, and this is a very serious matter.
• battle against the strongman.
• battle against attacks from the womb.
• battle of sexual pollution.
• altar attack, if you worship idols in your family.
• battle against polygamous witchcraft.
But then, it is only a counter battle that can deliver from all these.

*PRAYER POINTS:*

1. I plug my life into the resurrection power of the blood of Jesus.

2. Evil bank requesting for my blood; catch fire in the name of Jesus.
3. Every internal chain in my body, breaks, in the name of Jesus.
4. Every instrument of poison in my body, get out, in the name of Jesus.
5. (Pray these three hot times) O God, you are my God: arise, show it, in the name of Jesus.

THE WISE VILLAGE GIRL

In a small village nestled in the rolling hills of the countryside, there lived a young girl named Akua. She was known throughout the village for her wisdom beyond her years. One day, a severe drought hit the land, and the villagers were struggling to find water. Akua suggested they dig deeper wells, using an ancient technique she had learned from her grandmother. The villagers were skeptical at first, but Akua's confidence and knowledge convinced them to give it a try.

To their surprise, the wells yielded abundant water, saving the village from certain disaster. The villagers were amazed and grateful for Akua's wisdom, and from that day on, she was known as "The Wise Village Girl." Her insight and resourcefulness had brought life-giving water to their parched lands, and her reputation as a wise and knowledgeable young woman was solidified.

*"Your mouth( Onu gi) is the first enemy of your life. If you want to live long, close it and think twice before you speak. Words once spoken cannot be taken back, and careless speech can ruin relationships, opportunities, and even lives. Silence, at times, is the best wisdom one can have. Guard your words and likewise guard your life."*
