Amad, Heaven, De Ligt - Man Utd Injury News and Return Dates Before Bournemouth and Athletic Bilbao

Manchester United are navigating a crucial phase in their season as they prepare for vital fixtures against Bournemouth and Athletic Bilbao, with several players recovering from injury setbacks. Here’s the latest injury update from Manchester Evening News as manager Ruben Amorim evaluates his squad.

De Ligt suffered an ankle injury in the match against Nottingham Forest. Although he stayed on the pitch until halftime, he hasn't played since. Amorim recently stated that while de Ligt is expected back before the season ends, a concrete return date remains undecided.

Ayden Heaven – Minor Injury

Heaven returned to the squad against Newcastle after missing three games, but a minor knock in training has kept him out of recent selections. The injury, caused by contact, is under review, and Amorim has not specified a return timeline.

Lisandro Martinez – Long-Term ACL Injury

Martinez remains sidelined due to a torn ACL suffered in February against Crystal Palace. He has undergone surgery and will miss the rest of the season. With a typical recovery period of six months, he is not expected back until August.

Toby Collyer – Leg Problem

Collyer is dealing with a leg injury. Although no official return date has been provided, Amorim assured supporters that the issue is not serious, and he could be available in the coming weeks.

Amad – Ankle Recovery

Amad was initially set to miss the remainder of the season after injuring his ankle. However, recent updates have shown signs of a possible return before the season wraps up. Amorim is hopeful he’ll be fit by May, and Amad himself has shared promising recovery updates on social media.

Joshua Zirkzee – Season-Ending Hamstring Injury


Zirkzee picked up a hamstring injury in the Newcastle game and has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Despite walking off unaided, the injury is serious enough to sideline him. He is now focused on returning in time for the next pre-season.

With key games approaching, including the showdown with Athletic Bilbao, United will be hoping for timely returns from key players like Amad and de Ligt to strengthen their push at the business end of the season.

VISION

INTRODUCTION

Vision is the revelation of God’s purpose and plan for a person, a people, a generation, or even an entire nation. It is not ambition. It is not wishful thinking. It is not mere goal-setting. Vision is divine direction birthed by divine encounter. According to Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NKJV): “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” This reveals a key truth: NO TRUE VISION SPEAKS AT THE BEGINNING; IT ONLY SPEAKS AT THE END.

WHAT IS VISION?

Vision is the spiritual insight into God’s intended outcome for a life. It is not self-initiated but God-initiated. It is the mental and spiritual picture of your future that propels you with energy, courage, and resilience. Vision is what gives life direction, focus, and purpose. Without it, people live by reaction instead of intention. Proverbs 29:18 (KJV) says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.”

True vision is born out of divine fellowship. It is not created in the boardroom but received in the secret place. Vision is not what you want to do for God, but what God wants to do through you. It is the blueprint of heaven deposited in your spirit, commanding your alignment and action.

KEY FACTS ABOUT VISION

1. TRUE VISION SPEAKS AT THE END, NOT AT THE BEGINNING

When vision first arrives, it often looks ordinary, confusing, or even unrealistic. It rarely comes with applause or clarity. In fact, it often invites criticism, mockery, and rejection. Just like Joseph’s dreams, vision is usually ridiculed before it is respected. In the beginning, it may appear dormant or unachievable. But in the end, it speaks loudly and clearly. Vision is validated by manifestation, not excitement.

2. VISION REQUIRES PROCESSING

Before vision speaks, it processes. The one who receives vision must be processed to match the weight of what God has revealed. Moses had the vision to deliver Israel, but spent 40 years in the wilderness being prepared. Paul encountered Jesus and then spent years in Arabia being equipped. God will never place a heavy vision on an unprocessed vessel. Between revelation and manifestation is preparation.

3. VISION THRIVES ON CHARACTER, NOT JUST CHARISMA

It is not enough to carry power gifts like prophecy, tongues, healing, or discernment. These are important but not sufficient for the fulfillment of vision. The gifts may attract attention, but it is the fruit of the Spirit that sustains destiny. According to Galatians 5:22-23, the fruits of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are the attributes that preserve the vessel and stabilize the journey.

Many have received genuine visions from God but failed in character and collapsed in the process. Patience and long-suffering are especially critical because vision is a marathon, not a sprint. Without endurance, discouragement will abort destiny.

4. VISION REQUIRES TIME AND SEASONAL DISCERNMENT

Vision is time-sensitive. No matter how accurate a vision is, if you try to manifest it outside of divine timing, it will fail. The power of vision lies in alignment with God’s schedule. Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Misjudging seasons leads to premature exposure and failure.

Vision must be walked out step by step, stage by stage. Just as a baby must crawl before walking, vision must mature before manifestation. Each season comes with its test. There is a season of silence, of rejection, of formation, and of visibility. You must discern them all.

5. VISION ATTRACTS ADVERSITY

Every true vision will face opposition. In fact, opposition is one of the strongest validations that your vision is divine. Satan will not fight what is not a threat. Nehemiah’s vision to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem was opposed from every side. Jesus' mission was challenged from infancy to the cross. If your vision is truly of God, expect resistance—but also expect divine backing.

Opposition is not a sign of failure but a test of commitment. Many faint in the day of adversity because their strength is small. Visionaries must be battle-tested, able to withstand storms, delays, betrayals, and discouragement.

6. VISION REQUIRES DISCIPLINE AND FOCUS

Distraction is one of the deadliest enemies of vision. Many start strong but lose focus. Like Peter walking on water, they allow the winds of life to shift their eyes from the Master to the mess. Vision demands saying no to many good things to stay with the God-thing.

It also requires the discipline of time, resources, and relationships. Not every opportunity is a divine instruction. You must guard your heart, your circle, and your energy. Vision flourishes in environments of purity and clarity.

7. VISION REQUIRES COURAGE AND RESILIENCE

Vision will often demand that you walk alone. The early stages of vision may require loneliness, rejection, and misunderstanding. Noah built an ark with no rain in sight. Abraham walked to an unknown land. These men were sustained by vision, not applause.

If you cannot endure the loneliness of vision, you will never enjoy the reward of vision. You must believe what God told you even when no one else sees it. Hebrews 10:36 says, “You have need of patience, that, after you have done the will of God, you might receive the promise.”

8. VISION SEEKS TRANSFORMATION, NOT JUST ATTRACTION

A true vision will not just aim to make you popular or successful; it will aim to make others better, to improve society, and to advance God’s kingdom. Vision is bigger than self. It is redemptive. It serves others. It adds value. If your vision doesn’t stretch beyond you, it is ambition, not vision.

STAGES OF A VISION

1. REVELATION – God reveals His purpose.

2. INSTRUCTION – Specific steps are given.

3. SEPARATION – You are separated from what limits you.

4. PREPARATION – You are trained and refined.

5. OPPOSITION – You are tested and resisted.

6. MANIFESTATION – Vision begins to produce fruit.

7. MULTIPLICATION – Vision spreads and multiplies in others.

QUALITIES OF A VISIONARY

Sensitive to divine instructions

Emotionally stable and spiritually rooted

Bold in the face of opposition

Willing to endure delays and rejections

Able to discern seasons and transitions

Passionate about impact, not applause

Willing to submit to process and authority

Consistent in faith, regardless of results

CONCLUSION

Vision is not a one-time encounter—it is a lifelong journey. It is God's plan being worked out through your life in stages. Vision is fragile in the beginning but becomes powerful at the end. The end speaks, not the beginning. It is not how it looks now, but how it will be when God is done.

Don’t abort your vision because of delay. Don’t discard it because of opposition. Don’t disobey because of pressure. What God has shown you will come to pass—if you stay faithful.

Ecclesiastes 7:8 (NIV) says, “The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.” Vision is not about speed, but about staying in sync with God. Those who wait on the Lord will not be ashamed. The vision will speak—at the end.

Happy Easter Sunday to everyone,
Thank God that our Lord Jesus Christ is risen. What a great celebration. He has taken the key of hell and now made an open shame of the devil. The power in heaven,on earth and under the earth is now under His control. Beloved, you are now free. This freedom is an authentic one not a fake one. Let's relax and enjoy the spiritual benefits of His resurrection.
Shalom!!!!!

"WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE TOWN. IF ANYONE BLOCKS YOU, CRUSH HIM!!!"

Bishop Oyedepo's response after the burning of Church buses during the early days in Ota.

During the Morning Session on Saturday at the Easter Faith Convention 2025, Bishop David Oyedepo while emphasizing on the need for members to be bold and never to be intimidated by the forces of darkness, shared some encounters of the early days at Canaanland Ota, the International Headquarters of the Living Faith Church.

He told the congregation how some angry people burnt two of the Church brand new buses and while they were going home, the wife asked him because of the chaos going on in the town, "where are we going through?" He responded, "we are going through the town. People like us don't go through corners." He further gave the driver an instruction, "anybody you meet, crush him." That was how they drove through without any obstruction on the road and that created path for others to go through.

He also cited examples of how birds were dropping dead both in Canaanland and in his house without any man's involvement. "The battles that we confronted here, only Heaven can have the chronicles of it. It takes spiritual boldness to possession your possession" - he stated.

HOW TO CHOOSE A NICHE FOR YOUR ONLINE BRAND.

A lot of people are confused when it comes to choosing a niche.

You don’t need to “have it all figured out” to choose a niche.

Here’s how to pick your niche without overthinking.

1. CHECK WHAT YOU KNOW, LOVE, AND CAN TEACH WITHOUT GOOGLE.

Ask yourself,

What do people always ask me about?

What can I explain even if someone wakes me up by 2am?

What topic excites me and energizes me?

What have I suffered through, survived, and now I want to help others with?

Your niche is usually hidden inside your knowledge, your experience, or your wounds.

2. FOCUS ON WHO YOU WANT TO HELP, NOT JUST WHAT YOU WANT TO SELL

Instead of saying: “I want to sell skincare products.”

Say “I help young women clear their acne and feel confident in their bare face.”

See the difference?

Your niche is not just what you do.

It’s WHO you do it for and WHY it matters.

3. MONETIZE FROM DAY ONE (EMOTION NO DEY PAY BILLS)

If your niche cannot be monetized, it’s a hobby. Not a business.

Do people pay for this problem to be solved?

Are there coaches, content creators, or products already making money in that niche?

Good. That means there’s a market.

Don’t try to be the first. Choose a lucrative niche.

4. START WITH ONE THING. YOU CAN EVOLVE LATER.

You’re not married to your niche forever o.

Start with what you know now.

As you grow, your niche will grow with you.

Clarity comes along the way.

5. STOP WAITING FOR A VOICE FROM HEAVEN.

My dear, your niche won’t come with thunder and lightning.

It won’t say, “Behold, this is thy calling…”

You find your niche by:
• Testing
• Creating content
• Serving people
• Listening to feedback
• Seeing what works

The more you show up, the clearer it becomes.

Don’t let “I don’t have a niche” stop you from building a brand.

Start from where you are.

Pick something. Package it. Post it.

Then keep refining as you go.

You don’t find your niche by sitting still.

You find it by moving.

Today, Jesus—the spotless Lamb—took the place of the guilty.
He bore our sin.
He carried our shame.
He was wounded… so we could be healed.

It looked like defeat.
But heaven called it victory.

The cross—the symbol of suffering—became the bridge to salvation.
The grave—the end for most—became the beginning of eternal life.

Through death… we find life. Through sorrow… we find joy. Through the cross… we find hope.

So yes, it is Friday… and it is Good.

Because Love hung on a cross, and changed everything.

It is GOOD!!!

On the occasion of today Good Friday,the steadfast love of the Lord will never ceases; his mercies will never come to an end in your life and home in Jesus name

*WISHING YOU HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY* *AND EASTER IN ADVANCE*


!

- Apostle Joshua Selman
Every time you realize your life is not producing the results desired, it's time to check yourself.

Enter your secret place and ask, Lord what is responsible for this?
Don't sit down and blame people or situations.

Something must be wrong that you need to find out.

Bad lucks everywhere in your life, Destiny helpers leave you, you had an accident, you arrived late and missed something good. something is wrong.

Go back and ask the Lord in your secret place what is wrong ?

God corrects men using fire.

In God's economy, he never throws men away, he corrects them.

When you find out that your life is unfruitful, your prayer life has gone down, it is possible something bad was introduced to your life.

You ask, what is the use of serving God when all I see is bad things happening to me?

When God wants to help you, he puts you in a fire that prunes. When you are in the fire, there is no talking.

Everytime your life looks silent, there are times in your Christian experience that it was when you prayed for God to use you, He says he will do that but from that time God keeps silent.

He is working on you.
He puts you in a fire and leaves you there for all that came along with you(wrong mindsets that come with your background, your weaknesses etc,) to get burnt.

He can't remove them from you using cold, He uses fire .

So you are asking God a question, Lord please what are you saying about my ministry?

Lord the people I got born again are moving forward and am here.

Lord you promised me that I will be a prophet to the nations yet am here, what is happening?

Lord you said you will use me to crush down the altars that come from my region.

Lord will you please speak to me?....And he is silent.

The only thing you know is that your prayer life is increasing strangely, you are getting unusual insight suddenly from the Bible, then you find out also that your Spiritual senses have been heightened...but you will never hear his voice about your situations..

YOU ARE IN THE FIRE !

And then all hell breaks loose.
It looks like everything around you is falling apart, I tell you the truth, don't mind what you are seeing and don't be carnaly minded.

The things that you see are temporal, what you call defeat is the exit of the viper from your life.

It was when the tree was put in fire that the viper came out in the day of Paul.
When God wants to help a person and the people, he will cause you to encounter that fire

DOES GOD HATE POVERTY OR PROSPER

Look At What The Bible Says About Prosperity:

1. JOSHUA 1:8

15. ECCLESIASTES 5:19
“Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.”
