WHEN YOU LEAVE THE CHURCH SYSTEM OF TODAY, THIS IS WHAT GOD DOES FOR YOU…. Let’s start with a simple analogy. When your heart was illuminated from heaven, and you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, you left Satan. Since then, have you noticed that Satan has NOT left you alone? Yes, by God’s grace, Satan does not control your life today - as he used to. But, have you been able to get rid of him completely? I’m sure the answer is NO. In exactly the same way, when God illuminates your heart and you leave the evil, lukewarm church system of today, please always remember that the church system does NOT quite leave you! This is partly because the church system of today possesses the STUBBORN NATURE of its designer and builder – Satan. It’s also because the ways of the church system of today blends excellently with our fleshly nature. So, depending on how long you have spent in the church system, its spirit continues to hover around you, seeking to influence you as the Lord rescues you from its clinging claws to follow Christ. Therefore, when God rescues you from the church system, please always remember this: you’ll need a lot of PATIENCE and HUMILITY to move forward in the journey ahead. (A journey that many believers will find very, very challenging.) As you get out of the church system it will take some time for God to get the church system out of you. Primarily, this is because the church system was NOT built around Christ. Rather, it was built around MAN! Built by MAN. Built for MAN. (This is why, till today, many sincere, Christ-loving believers find it difficult to leave the church system – even after they realise that Jesus Christ is NOT at its centre). But when God calls you out of that church system - to properly integrate you into the heavenly Body of Christ - it will take a considerable time for you to adjust to the process. There would be lots and lots to learn and re-learn. The primary lesson will revolve around how to be LED DIRECTLY FROM HEAVEN by the spirit of God. This will be in contrast to how you were LED in the church system both by your own will, and by the WILL OF MEN (pastors). Now, let’s break this down further. In God’s plan of salvation, a believer’s life no longer belongs to him. It belongs EXCLUSIVELY to God! And that life is supposed to be lived EXCLUSIVELY for Christ (2 Cor 5:15). Because of this divine reality, that life can only be CONTROLLED from heaven. This is why Jesus (who modelled the life we ought to live as believers) kept repeating words like these: “I can of mine own self do NOTHING (John 5:19,30, etc). So, when God rescues you from the church system of today, one of the FIRST LESSONS He’ll teach you relates to directing your attention to WHOM you were called in salvation. Most believers that come out of the church system of today would want God to show them WHERE to go next (that is, which new church/fellowship to attend next). But, Christianity is primarily not about WHERE, it’s about a WHO!!! And that WHO is Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God. So, God will take time to get you to become more acquainted with Jesus MORE INTIMATELY. Yes, you may have known Him in salvation. But, God wants you to know Him MORE INTIMATELY. To see Him. To hear Him. To smell Him. To feel Him. To touch Him. And, above all, to be LED BY HIM! This is NOT a lesson that is taught primarily by man. Rather, it is taught from heaven by the Spirit. The Spirit of God. So, when you leave the church system of today, instead of rushing to join another church, God might ‘leave you’ for some time with the Holy Spirit to be your direct Teacher – rather than men. The Holy Spirit will teach you more and more of Christ AND how to be led by His Spirit. To accomplish this goal, He will supernaturally plant resources around you. Resources that you may not notice – if ALL your focus is channelled towards the desire to simply be led to the next church/fellowship! But, if you are sensitive, you may notice the resources He’s sending your way. A book here. A message there. An article here. A video there. As well as one, two, or three brethren that He connects to you for discussions/informal fellowship. And so on. As you utilise these resources and continuously remain sensitive to His leading, you’d be amazed at how you’ll begin to GROW in the Spirit and in your sensitivity to Him! And that’s because, gradually, He’ll shift your focus from the ‘WHERE’ (which we learnt from the church system) to the ‘WHO’ (as ordained by God in salvation). It is in this way that the Spirit of the Lord will eventually LEAD YOU to the physical fellowship that HE Himself has prepared for you - and prepared you for. (For some believers, this process may take years!!!) In such an assembly, you’ll find other believers that may have undergone a similar divine training/journey. Believers that have been WEANED from the evil origin/ways of the church system – so that their focus can be on Christ ALONE. Where Christ ALONE is at the centre of the church. It is only in such a Christ-honouring assembly that you can truly grow in fellowship as ordained by God (Heb 10:25). The alternative is to rush from one church/fellowship in the church system of today to another church/fellowship that has NOT been delivered from the spirit of the church system of today. What a disaster! And, then, God will have to rescue you again. And the process starts all over again. Of course, there’s no sense in this. And there’s no time to waste in this perilous end-time. So, when God delivers you from the church system of today, please understand that there will be A PERIOD OF RE-ORIENTATION as the Holy Spirit Himself realigns your focus back to Christ as the SPRINGBOARD of your life. A life that is controlled from heaven and channelled into the will of God on earth. The journey will be quite challenging. But, at the end, you’ll be grateful that God, in His wisdom, did not only take you out of the evil church system of today, but that He also took the evil church system of today out of you! So that you may thrive and flourish in the life of Christ (and in destiny) – as ordained by God when He saved you by His unfailing love for your precious soul. Thanks for reading, God bless you. (PS - To understand WHY/HOW the church system of today became lukewarm and evil, pls have a look at the article titled, 'THIS IS WHY GOD WILL NEVER, EVER COMPROMISE WITH THE CHURCH SYSTEM OF TODAY....'

When you go to eat in a canteen, you know exactly what food you want but when you are in a buffet with varieties of food where you serve yourself, the problem of what to eat becomes a very serious one. This shows the complexity of human nature

How to Live Healthily Without Medication Living a healthy life without relying on medication is possible with the right habits, consistency, and awareness of your body’s needs. Below are key practices to help you maintain good health naturally: 1. Eat a Balanced Diet: Nourish your body with a variety of whole foods—fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Limit processed foods, excess sugar, and unhealthy oils. Staying hydrated is equally essential, so aim for 6–8 glasses of water daily. 2. Exercise Regularly: Physical activity improves circulation, strengthens the heart, and boosts mental health. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise (like brisk walking, cycling, or dancing) most days of the week. 3. Sleep Well: Quality sleep is the body’s natural repair tool. Get 7–9 hours of restful sleep each night. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule and avoid screens or heavy meals before bedtime. 4. Manage Stress: Chronic stress can harm your immune system and lead to illness. Practice deep breathing, meditation, prayer, journaling, or spend time in nature to stay mentally and emotionally balanced. 5. Stay Hygienic: Regular hand washing, proper food handling, and maintaining a clean environment help prevent infections. Personal hygiene is a basic yet powerful step toward maintaining good health. 6. Build Strong Relationships: Positive social connections can reduce stress and support mental well-being. Spend time with loved ones, share your thoughts, and stay connected. 7. Avoid Harmful Habits: Limit or avoid smoking, excessive alcohol intake, and substance abuse. These weaken your body and increase the risk of chronic disease. 8. Regular Health Check-ups: Even without medication, it’s wise to monitor your health through routine check-ups and screenings to catch any issues early. In conclusion, living healthily without medication is about prevention, discipline, and treating your body with respect. It’s not about avoiding medicine when necessary but reducing the need for it through wise, daily choice.

The Beauty of Nature

Loving the wrong person. So many people are suffering in today's relationships because they refuse to let go of the person they are currently in a relationship with. They know the relationship isn't working, but they refuse to leave because they feel they might be able to change the person. They believe they are willing to go to any length to ensure that the person continues to "love them". The hardest aspect is that they are doing everything in the hopes that the person would change, even when the person has no intention of changing in the first place. If you're in a relationship right now where the person is causing you more grief than happiness, then it's time to let them go. Accepting that things aren't working is the best approach to avoid getting hurt more in this type of relationship. It's crucial to admit to yourself that the relationship is in disrepair. I see so many people that are suffering in their current relationships because they refuse to face the reality of its true nature. If your current relationship isn't working, do me a favor and don't force it, the more you force it, the more you will end up hurting yourself in the long run. Nobody can take your happiness away if you don't want it taken away. Your happiness is in your hands; your happiness is dependent on you. If you don't want others to continue to mistreat you......you have the power to stop them. Take my advice and have the courage to leave the table when respect is no longer being served.

BEWARE OF "ONE DAY" 1. ONE DAY you will lock your door, but you will not be the one to open it. 2. ONE DAY you will wash those best clothes of yours and you will not be able to wear it. 3. ONE DAY your favourite food will be prepared, and you will not be there to eat it anymore. 4. ONE DAY you will eat and drink what you will never excrete. 5. ONE DAY your curriculum vitae and all your years of experience will not matter to anyone anymore. 6. ONE DAY the person who seems to love you most will never dare to move closer to you. 7. ONE DAY you will think of what you can never accomplish. 8. ONE DAY you will be regarded as "a corpse" 9. ONE DAY you will be isolated in a place called "grave" 10. ONE DAY those things and people you love most will come your way, but you will not be able to give any attention to it/them. 11. ONE DAY you will hold your breath and never be able to release it. 12. ONE DAY you will become a defendant before The Chief Judge (GOD). 13. ONE DAY housefly/ termites will come your way, and you will be unable to chase them. 14. ONE DAY you will receive a call that you can never decline. 15. ONE DAY your name will be called, but no one will answer. 16. ONE DAY the assets you cherished most will be taken by another person. 17. ONE DAY your deed on Earth will be presented to you like a CD. 18. ONE DAY a title will be added to your name "The Late" 19. ONE DAY the Great Allocator will allocate you to an appropriate place. 20. ONE DAY that your beautiful skin will turn to its original nature-sand/dust. 21. ONE DAY your entire body will cease operation. The verb will change from he is a good man to he was a good man. 22. ONE DAY you will be given an eternal apartment, either Paradise or hell. 23. ONE DAY you will not be able to hold or type anything on this phone anymore. Take LIFE easy, DO GOOD, and run from EVIL. Be at peace with everyone and love your Neighbour as yourself.

OKE OGUN: THE BEST AS CAPITAL FOR THE PROPOSED NEW OYO STATE. Following the Senate public hearing held in Lagos earlier this month in respect to the state creation, the Senate has in their Friday 11th July plenary proposed the creaction of 12 new states with 2 in each geo-political zone. This development had Ibadan and Ijebu States proposed from the present Oyo and Ogun states respectively. And in all fairness to the Senate, they have done a great job that will enable easy passage of the bill, having conspicuously considered the landmass of some of the shortchanged states in the last creation. By that arrangement, Ibadan is going with Ibarapa, leaving ÒkèÒgùn, Oyo and Ogbomoso in the new Oyo State. The siting of new Oyo State Capital should ordinarily not be a topic of debate and should ACTUALLY NOT. By every standard, ÒkèÒgùn is naturally positioned as the most suitable location for the capital of the new Oyo State. Factors like landmass, Population, natural resources, centralization, huge infrastructure, Economy, Tourist sites, Food Security, and presence of Research Centers and Higher Institutions of Learning are outstanding qualifications for ÒkèÒgùn to be sited as capital. Beyond all sentiments, ÒkèÒgùn represents about 47.57% of the total landmass of the present Oyo State; it will represent more than 65% of the proposed new Oyo state. And by numbers of Local Government Area, ÒkèÒgùn has 10 LGAs which is the largest amongst the rest of it's co- proposed journeyers; Ogbomoso with 5 LGAs and Oyo with 4 LGAs. For a fact! ÒkèÒgùn with its 13,537km2 area is 2 to 4 times bigger than Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Ekiti and Lagos States. So, if it can not stand as a state for now, being a capital would be fair. Talking about natural resources deposits, no other region other than ÒkèÒgùn in either of the present Oyo State or the proposed new Oyo State (with the exit of Ibadan and Ibarapa) that has an inch of the natural resources and precious stones the nature has blessed ÒkèÒgùn with; amongst which are gold, marble, kaolin, granite, iron-ore, tantalite, talc, beryl etc. They are all available in commercial quantities in ÒkèÒgùn. Going by Centralization: ÒkèÒgùn is so central and naturally positioned such that one can easily connect from anywhere within and outside the state. There are good road networks suitable to navigate to state capital from Ogun, Kwara, the proposed Ibadan state and even beyond. On infrastructure, the Ikere Gorge Dam in Iseyin is a huge source of Power/water Generation and distribution to the state and its neighbors. And apart from power and water security, this will attract investors and shall in no meagre measure boost the economy of the state. Need we also mention that the construction of the road that leads to Ikere Dam has commenced courtesy of Governor Seyi Makinde's administration and the long abandoned Power plant has also recently been approved for revamping by the Federal Government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to commence soon. Iyake hanging lake in ÒkèÒgùn is a great site to behold for tourists. Colorado has the 2nd hanging lake in the world and it's boosting it's economy through same by way of tourism. The Federal Government will benefit hugely in this resource and the new state will also not suffer courtesy of this alone. For Economy, virtually each town in ÒkèÒgùn has outstanding art that boosts economic activities. Iseyin is known for the great art of Aso Oke rated as best in the world; Ipapo for soap making, Shaki for quality Pot production and other towns for one art or the other. Aso Oke International Market in Iseyin is also a great one to lure investors to the new proposed state and shall be a major source of Economy booster. ÒkèÒgùn being the food basket of Oyo State will do better in terms of Food Security upon attaining the State Capital status. The rich soil of the land coupled with the existence of Ikere dam will help farmers to engage in farming activities all year round produce. A capital city should be one with serene environment with facilities that does not only make people comfortable but that will also add value to people; such is ÒkèÒgùn with library of International standard (Raji Oke-Esa Library) and Ebedi Residency for Literary works sitting comfortably in the heart of ÒkèÒgùn. Aside other factors mentioned above, OkeOgun hosts a Federal University, a State University, a State Polytechnic, 2 private Polytechnics and a College of health Sciences. All these are lovely factors to be considered, as the new capital will not start from the scratch for those important requirements. Finally, the National Assembly has gone this far, the completion of the process will determine what they shall be remembered for after now. It's only expected they are remembered for good, by placing the capital where it best suits. We can all ruminate on the words of Edmund Burke who said , "There is but one law for all, namely that law which governs all law, the law of our Creator, the law of humanity, justice, equity - the law of nature and of nations". The justice and equity here can only be NEW OYO STATE with ÒKÈÒGÙN as CAPITAL. May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
