25 SURE SIGNS YOU ARE READY FOR MARRIAGE 📍 Marriage is not for boys and girls. It’s for adults—emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and financially. Many people walk into marriage unprepared and end up walking out confused.

You're not just looking for someone to make you happy—you want to help your spouse fulfill destiny. 22. 📍You have control over your $ex drive.

You’ll thank yourself later. 🙏 May God grant you the wisdom to prepare and the grace to build a godly home when the time comes. 🔁 Share this with a single friend who’s serious about preparing for a purposeful marriage

When President Bola Ahmed Tinubu hastily and thoughtlessly removed fuel subsidy on the day of his inauguration, he triggered an economic avalanche that has since buried the average Nigerian under the weight of inflation, hunger, and despair. In a bid to manage the self-inflicted crisis, the administration promised to pay a wage award to federal civil servants as a temporary cushion pending the conclusion of negotiations on a new national minimum wage. That promise, like many others under this government, has become a broken covenant. It took the Tinubu administration a staggering 10 months to arrive at a new minimum wage figure. By implication, the Federal Government owes 10 months of wage award arrears to federal workers. Yet, only six months have been paid and that too after a series of unfulfilled assurances and avoidable delays. As of today, the Federal Government owes four months of wage awards, amounting to ₦35,000 monthly, a total of ₦140,000 per worker. While several state governments have shown commendable responsibility in the management of labour affairs, the Tinubu-led Federal Government has distinguished itself by its callous indifference and utter disdain for workers’ welfare. To make matters worse, instead of engaging in dialogue or fulfilling its promises, the government has now resorted to tyranny and suppression of free speech. Nearly two weeks ago, Comrade Andrew Uche Emelieze was arrested and detained for attempting to organize a peaceful protest to demand the payment of the overdue wage awards. His only "crime" was speaking up for workers abandoned by the state. We demand the immediate and unconditional release of Comrade Emelieze. His continued detention is an affront to democracy, a slap in the face of every Nigerian worker, and a chilling reminder of the authoritarian drift of the Tinubu administration. Let it be known: Nigerian workers will not be silenced, intimidated, or forgotten. The economic hardship is real, the hunger is biting, and the government has a duty to act, not repress. -AA

Marry a man who wants to be a husband.... not just a man who wants to have a wife. There’s a big difference. A man who wants a wife often loves the idea of marriage, the image, the comfort, the convenience. He wants the warm meals, the folded laundry, the steady emotional support. He wants a woman who holds it all together but doesn’t always consider the weight she carries. But a man who wants to be a husband? He moves differently. He doesn't just want commitment, he respects it. He doesn’t treat loyalty like a favour, it’s who he is, even when no one’s watching. He wants to build with you. Grow with you. Protect the peace you bring into his life. He communicates clearly. He listens with patience. He shows up, especially when it’s not easy. He doesn’t just want the title. He wants the work, the responsibility, the devotion. Because real husbands know that love is a verb. It’s in the small things, the effort, the apologies, the shared responsibilities. It’s in how he holds space for your emotions. How he covers you spiritually, mentally, and physically. How he doesn’t run when things get hard and doesn’t go silent when you need him to speak up. A man who wants to be a husband doesn’t chase convenience. He chooses consistency. So don’t settle for someone who just wants you around because of what you give. Wait for the man who values you enough to grow into who he needs to be, for himself, for you, and for your future together. Because when you marry someone who truly wants to be a husband, He won’t just love you. He will honor you. Every single day. ~Tanvir Sourov

IPOB PRESS RELEASE 9th July, 2025 RE: ANYONE COMPARING MAZI NNAMDI KANU TO A COWARDLY CONTENT CREATOR NEEDS PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), under the supreme leadership of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has been drawn to an utterly deranged and disgraceful narrative gaining traction among the intellectually bankrupt, in which cowards and charlatans—masquerading from foreign comfort zones as so-called “freedom fighters”—seek to compare Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to a self-proclaimed content creator and certified coward. Let us state it categorically: anyone foolish or mentally impaired enough to draw such a comparison needs urgent psychiatric intervention. Comparing the indomitable Mazi Nnamdi Kanu—who has endured extraordinary rendition, solitary confinement, torture, and a seven-year political and legal onslaught—to a coward who publicly denied Biafra in open court is the height of lunacy. MAZI NNAMDI KANU STANDS FOR DISCIPLINE, SACRIFICE, AND INTEGRITY Unlike criminals hiding behind the mask of activism, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has always emphasized discipline, non-violence, and moral clarity in the Biafra restoration project. His record speaks for itself: He wrote and spoke against criminality in the name of agitation. He personally instructed his lawyer, Barrister Maxwell Opara, to travel to Finland to convey his displeasure over the atrocities being committed in his name. The coward in question refused to meet him. He issued a handwritten directive from DSS detention ending the Monday sit-at-home policy—but was brazenly disobeyed by those intent on profiting from the blood of Biafrans. In yet another remarkable act of responsibility, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu invited Benjamin Madubugwu, his former co-acussed and cellmate in Kuje (2015–2017), to visit him at the DSS dungeon. The purpose of that visit was simple: to deliver a personal message to Biafrans, declaring that no Igbo person had a hand in his abduction and rendition, and that all forms of criminality in the name of Biafra are evil and unacceptable. That message—like every other instruction from our leader—was deliberately ignored by these impostors and opportunists. THE THINGS MAZI NNAMDI KANU FORBIDS — ALL VIOLATED BY A COWARD IN HELSINKI Let the records reflect that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu publicly forbade the following acts, all of which were later carried out by the cowardly fraudster now desperately seeking attention: No Biafran should form a government in exile. No Biafran should form an army or armed group. No Biafran currency should be printed or sold. No Biafra identity card should be created. No Biafran passport should be printed or circulated. Yet this Helsinki-based attention-seeker, lacking discipline or ideological clarity, violated every single one of these directives while claiming to “fight” for Biafra. Biafra is not a fantasy. It is not a YouTube show. It is not a plaything for criminals and cowards who find joy in extorting their own people. How can any sane person declare a “government” in a barbing salon in Helsinki without the consent of the people? Is this how revolutions are led? Is this what Biafran republicanism has been reduced to? BLOOD ON HIS HANDS — AND HE BOASTS OF IT The man being falsely compared to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu once boasted openly that he killed Ikechukwu Ugwuoha, the IPOB Biafraland Coordinator. Who does that? What manner of beast celebrates the killing of fellow Biafrans? That some gullible followers still fawn over such a coward is the greatest disappointment to our leader and all those who gave their lives for Biafra. IPOB REMAINS WHITER THAN WHITE — CLEANER THAN CLEAN Let it be known to all that IPOB has nothing to do with the so-called “Biafra Government in Exile.” We are not part of that criminal syndicate. We do not endorse or recognize it. We do not kill, extort, or run rackets in the name of Biafra. The inability of the Nigerian state to sustain any legitimate charge against our leader, despite multiple amendments and desperate media propaganda, is proof of the purity of our struggle and the discipline of our leadership. The Kenyan High Court has already declared his abduction unconstitutional. And despite all the torture and manipulation, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu remains unbroken—because he is fighting a just cause. Let the world understand that when the dust settles, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu shall speak again, and the enemies within and without shall be exposed. Biafra is not a hustle. Biafra is not for cowards. Biafra is not content for clicks. COMRADE EMMA POWERFUL SPOKESPERSON/MEDIA AND PUBLICITY SECRETARY FOR IPOB. #FreeMaziNnamdiKanuNow #BiafraReferendumNow #SelfDeterminationIsNotCrime

HOW TO BE POOR AND HOW TO GET RICH — The Choice is Yours 🚨 If after 4 years in a higher institution you’re still roaming the streets looking for a job, you need to hear this: you’ve failed—monumentally. Let’s stop pampering mediocrity. We’re in a country where truth sounds like hate because too many people are emotionally allergic to accountability. How do we explain that someone who studied Business Administration is now begging a secondary school dropout for job opportunities? How do we have graduates of Agriculture going hungry, when food is gold? Here's the bitter truth: poverty is not always a curse from the devil; often, it’s a system we’ve bought into with our mindset, our ego, and our excuses. Let’s break this down: 1️⃣ Pride: The Graduate Mentality Trap We want soft life. AC offices. Clean suits. Titles. But reality doesn’t pay you for your degree; it pays you for value. Artisan jobs are dying. In 10 years, Nigeria may have no more plumbers, welders, painters—everyone is chasing office jobs. Yet, the ones creating generational wealth are those with tools in their hands and solutions in their heads. Being a graduate shouldn’t stop you from picking up a skill. The world is changing, but are you? 2️⃣ Get-Rich-Quick Syndrome Everyone wants to hammer, but no one wants to suffer. There was a lady in my former church who kept disturbing me about venturing into tech because she heard I make good money. What she didn’t see were my 7 years of trials, the 2 years of no clients, the cancelled N2M deals, the sleepless nights, the rejections. You want what people have, but can you handle what they went through? Wealth takes time. 5 to 7 years of focused grind—minimum. Stop starting today and expecting harvest tomorrow. That’s not entrepreneurship; that’s fantasy. 3️⃣ Lack of Mentorship We spend millions to learn how to drive. But who teaches us how to make money, live purposefully, or build wealth? When Dr. Stephen Akintayo charges for mentorship, people cry scam. Yet they spend the same amount on phones, parties, and clothes. Poverty thrives where knowledge is undervalued. Mentorship is not free—it demands money or service. But it shortens your journey by years. Find someone ahead of you and serve your way into wisdom. 4️⃣ The “Only Me” Mentality We compete instead of collaborate. We want to outshine, not uplift. But the wealthiest communities—like the Jews—grow as a unit. Africa needs to understand: teamwork will take you farther than talent. 5️⃣ Lack of Integrity Our handshake is not worth a promise. We lie, we cheat, we scam—then pray for breakthrough. We must return to honesty, accountability, and trust. You can’t build lasting wealth without a name people can vouch for. 6️⃣ The Mentality Problem Survival Mentality: Just eating and breathing is not the goal of life. Receiver’s Mentality: Always collecting, never creating. Hunter’s Mentality: Eat today, die tomorrow. No long-term vision. 7️⃣ The Bandwagon Effect You start what’s trending, not what’s purposeful. That’s why we have failed forex traders, half-baked tech bros, and abandoned POS kiosks everywhere. Purpose is personal. You must find your lane, not just follow the noise. 8️⃣ False Priorities We put all hope in: God (without work) Classroom education (without skills) Government (without responsibility) Faith without works is dead. Education without action is useless. Government without personal accountability is hopeless. 9️⃣ Mindset is Everything Until your mind changes, your life can’t. You cannot carry a poor man’s mentality into a rich man’s future. Wealth starts from within. 🔟 Environment Shapes Destiny Your location can limit your vision. Surroundings influence success. You can’t live in a dump and dream of a palace without mental relocation first. Move. Change your crowd. Redesign your inputs. 💥 Until you break these chains, you will remain exactly where you are: educated, frustrated, and broke. The choice is yours. Be poor. Or rise. Your future is not a prophecy; it’s a decision. ✅ If this message stirred something in you, do this: 👍 Like this post 💬 Drop a comment that says “I choose wealth!” 🔁 Share with someone who needs this brutal truth 👣 Follow me — Damilola Adewuyi — your personal and business development partner 📍Let’s walk this journey together.

*PROTECT YOUR ANOINTING...* After yesterday’s service, it is now clear that the anointing is not just a gift; it’s a responsibility. And the only way to keep its power is through consecration. You can’t live carelessly and expect the anointing to speak. You can’t carry glory and ignore consecration. What feels like restriction is actually protection, guarding what God has placed on your life. We also learned that battles don’t create weakness, they expose it. When the fire comes, it will show whether you’ve built on consecration or convenience. It is time to sustain the victory we have received by living a life that is consecrated to God. Go watch the full message again on YouTube. You will be thankful that you did! Message Title: Victory Through Consecration https://youtu.be/WIjMK2qqf9k

🍒🌽SEEDS OF DESTINY, DUNAMIS CHURCH DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY DR. PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE Follow The Kingdom Meal for your daily devotional.. DATE: MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025. TOPIC: THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FREEDOM. SCRIPTURE: And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. MATTHEW 11:12. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: There is no rise without risk. Bulldogs have been confirmed to be one of the most tenacious animals on earth. Their nose tilts backward as an adaptation mechanism, so that if they hold onto anything, they will still have enough air to breathe. I heard a story about a little bulldog some time ago. The little bulldog would usually leave its compound to go and fight with a very big dog in another compound. The big dog would beat it, and it would return home for that day. The following day, the little bulldog would return for another round of fight, and the big dog would beat it as usual. The little bulldog got up and went home but still came back again the next day for yet another round of fight. This cycle continues until one day, the big dog started running when it sighted the small bulldog approaching. And I am sure, the big dog must be thinking, “I am not running because you are stronger than I; I am running because you are tireless, and I am wearied out. Okay, let me agree that you have won the fight so you can leave me alone.” You see, the little bulldog accepted the responsibility to become victorious, and nothing could stop it. It was indeed victorious. We live in a generation where many people don’t want to accept responsibility for anything. It is a symptom of mental bondage. When a person is mentally bound, he dodges challenges; he looks for a plastic life instead of a realistic life. That was the problem of the Israelites in the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land when they came out of Egypt. Every little challenge, they would complain to Moses. Their minds were so bound that they could not cope with the reality of a free life. When people are bound mentally, they avoid anything that challenges their ability. But the truth is, there is no reach without stretch, and there is no rise without risk. For an airplane to fly in the sky, it takes risks. If you must fly high in life, you must embrace risks. And if you must survive, you must be ready to fight. Beloved, even if a witch or a wizard is after your life, there is a degree of tenacity, violence, and iron will, that you can deploy and that witch or wizard will have no choice but to leave you alone. Beloved, accept the responsibility to fight and win. Accept the responsibility to go up and stay up. Remember this: There is no rise without risk. ASSIGNMENT(S): 1. Always accept responsibility; refuse to dodge challenges. 2. Trust God to help you handle any challenge facing you. 3. Search the scripture and locate light (bullets) that will keep you in permanent victory. PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to accept responsibility for my victory and success in life. I refuse to be swallowed up by the challenges of life. I triumph over the storms of life, Lord, In Jesus’ Name. FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: MENTAL RENOVATION DAILY BIBLE READING: Song of Songs 6-8 QUOTE: Never accept or give any excuse for being where you are…Accept responsibility. Culled from the book, 30 Secrets to the Top by Dr Paul Enenche. AMAZING FACT: Lion cubs are born blind and depend on their mothers for survival. PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: I decree the release of your liberty as you accept responsibility in this season in Jesus Name.

*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE* DATE: MONDAY 14TH JULY 2025 THEME: *BREAKING THE SPELL OF DARKNESS* MEMORIZE John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. READ Matthew 4:15-17 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: *There can be no genuine progress where darkness reigns.* MESSAGE Darkness has the power to cast spells on people. Every wrong step you have taken in life was masterminded by the spells of darkness. Every wrong choice you made in the past was guided from the spell of darkness casted upon you directly or indirectly. *The spell of darkness is the spell of death. Until men are blinded by darkness, they are not death doomed.* It is the spell of darkness that makes men call evil good and good evil. They would rather believe in lies instead of the truth. Individuals who are under the spell of darkness may never know the danger of sin and evil until they are neck deep into it. Satan had to depend on the spell of darkness to deceive Eve. Eve also transmitted to the same spell on Adam hence the later could not discern the danger of eating of the forbidden fruit nor did he have the power to resist the pull of evil associated with the strange tree of conflicting knowledge in the garden. *Your breakthroughs in life are delayed by the spells of darkness around you.* *Until you break the spells of darkness over your life, your breakthroughs may continue to linger.* There can be no genuine progress where darkness reigns. Our first major responsibility in life is to be so lighted by God's word that we break the spell of darkness everywhere we find ourselves. *The only weapon for dislodging darkness and its forces is the light from God's word.* The Bible says in; Psalms 119:130 "The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple." *Therefore, when the Lord Jesus began His ministry, He began by teaching and preaching the word because the revelation of the word is the only power that can successfully and completely break the spell of darkness.* ACTION STEPS 1. Ask the Holy Spirit to saturate your life with His light always. 2. Pray fervently that every hidden works of dishonesty in and around your life be exposed and rebuked. 3. Ask the Lord to fill your heart with genuine love for the truth always. PRAYERS Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. Oh God of restoration, keep me away from every error and deceit and help me to stay in your Light in Jesus' name. Amen. REMEMBER *There can be no genuine progress where darkness reigns.* AUTHOR: JEDIDIAH DAVID DAILY READING: numbers 3-5; Proverbs 16-17. HYMN Holy, Holy, Holy ! Lord God Almighty ! Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee ; Holy, Holy, Holy ! Merciful andMighty !

“My Money is My Money, But His Money is Our Money?” 💔 A Danger0us Mindset in Marriage Ladies, let's talk. 👇 That line might sound funny on social media, but in real life, it’s one of the quickest ways to break trust, fuel resentment, and hinder progress in your marriage. As a marriage counselor, let me help you reset your mindset and set your marriage up for success. 💯 ✅ 1. Marriage is a Covenant, Not a Competition 🌹 Once you say "I do," you are no longer two individuals — you are one team. That means resources, time, energy, and money should no longer be viewed as “mine vs. yours” but ours. ✅ 2. Your Money is Family Money 🌹 Whether the husband earns it or the wife does, it belongs to the home, not to one person. Money should be pooled together to meet family needs, pursue shared goals, and build legacy. 🧩 Teamwork in finances equals peace in the home. ✅ 3. Stop Misusing 1 Timothy 5 🌹 Many wrongly use 1 Timothy 5:8 to say men must be sole providers. But context matters! That chapter talks about supporting widows, not setting financial roles in marriage. Verse 16 even says: “If any man or woman has widows... let them relieve them...” 💡 Conclusion: Provision isn’t gender-specific — it’s about responsibility, not roles. ✅ 4. Scripture Over Culture 🌹 Culture may say “only the man must provide”, but the Bible never says the man must be the sole provider. 🔍 Proverbs 31 paints a picture of a resourceful, industrious woman involved in: 📍Agriculture 📍Trading and exporting 📍Fashion and textiles 📍Charity work 👑 She was married and still actively contributed financially. ✅ 5. Marriage is a Financial Partnership 🌹 You and your spouse should: 📍Set shared financial goals 📍Create a joint budget 📍Discuss big purchases 📍Sacrifice for one another when needed Sometimes, the wife will delay her wants so her husband can meet a need, and vice versa. This is not weakness — this is love and wisdom. ✅ 6. Ladies, Adjust Your Mindset 🌹 Stop seeing yourself as a financial observer. You are not a guest in your marriage — you are a co-builder. 🚫 “I’m just helping him” ✅ “We’re building this life together” God did not create Eve to be idle — He created her to be a helper suitable. That includes emotional, spiritual, and financial help. ✅ 7. Be a Woman of Value, Not Just Expense 🌹 You can be wealthy. You can provide. You can start a business, own property, fund dreams, sponsor others, and bless your home. 🌱 You are not just a helpmate — you are a force for financial progress. 🙏🏾 Final Word: Marriage thrives where selfishness d!es. Drop the “my money vs. his money” mindset. Pick up the “our home, our wealth, our future” mindset. 💖 God is for your marriage, and you will not fail in Jesus’ name. 🔁 Share this with every married couple and young woman you know. 📌 Follow us for more Biblical marriage truths:

SUNDAY 13TH JULY 2025 PST NINA BRIGGS TITLE: IS YOUR LIGHT STILL ON Gen 1:1-5 Verse 3 And God said let there be light. When light came, order and structure came. Matt 5:13-16 Verse 14 Three levels of responsibility. Reality Role Revelation. Light as a reality- we become new creations in Him. We begin to display Christ in us. Light is my reality.

I'm our daily life, we need to be at the level of not sinning against God. We must have a why (A reason) in everything we do. Light is very important. We all go into unsupervised spaces. Who you are in secret is who you really are. At any point of challenges, your responsibility is to God. Everything you do at the core of it is God. Your primary audience is am I pleasing God. If God be God then let God be God in your life. How can I do this wicked thing and sin against my God. Light applies to everyone. It has nothing to do with segregated generations. It applies to all young and old. If you do not have a why, you light will die. The spirit reveals to you when you are about to cross the line. Close with Gen 1:3and 4 Matt 5:13 - You are the light of the World. I am the light of the World. Wherever you find yourself, let there be Light (Abdul-Nasser ) put your name. May God bless his Servant Pst Nina Briggs.

HOW TO HANDLE FIGHTS IN A RELATIONSHIP....✍🏾 1. Know that it is normal for two people in love to disagree, offend each other, fall short, or misunderstand each other. 2. Always remember how much you love and need each other. Remembering this will give you the incentive to resolve any conflict between you two. Don't throw away true love because of a passing storm. 3. Know each other's temperaments. If you are a hot-tempered person, tell your partner/spouse so that your partner/spouse will prepare incase you spark off. But work on your temper still. 4. Agree how to handle fights before fights emerge. A nation develops a constitution to guide its operation, partners/spouses agree on what to do to guide in relations. 5. Don't let the fear of fighting or disagreeing with your partner/spouse keep you two from confronting each other and expressing your feelings. Too many are tired, bored, frustrated or angry in their relationship/marriage but pretend all is well because they are afraid of talking about heavy and uneasy stuff with their partner. Slowly their relationship/marriage collapses, you can't pretend for long. 6. Before you confront and blame your partner/spouse, analyze the situation and see if you have played a role in causing the problem. 7. When a fight between you two is approaching or something happens that inflames tempers, walk away, cool off. Don't talk in anger. Cool down then talk rationally. 8. Remember you are in the same team. Fighting your partner/spouse is fighting what you two have, which in effect is fighting yourself. 9. Avoid insults. Hold and control your tongue, hurtful words only complicate matters, once they are spoken they can't be taken back. 10. Don't be tempted to use the information your partner/spouse shared with you in trust to get your way. Don't use the secrets your partner/spouse shared with you to attack or intimidate your partner/spouse. 11. Don't disclose matters to a third party. Solve the matter the two of you. Don't gossip about the short comings of your partner/spouse to your family or friends. Don't air your dirty linen in public. Cover each other from outsiders as you two remain naked to each other. 12. Pray together. Prayer clears up the air, restores love and order, brings unity of purpose and reminds you that God is watching and you both are God's children. 13. When talking about the matter, fully talk about it, look for its root cause, lay everything on the table. A problem that is not fully addressed or understood will keep recurring. 14. Give each other a chance to speak. None should feel silenced. 15. Be mindful of your body language. You may not insult but your partner/spouse is paying attention to your body language. Don't sneer, click or show contempt. 16. Never use your child/children to settle scores in a cold war with each other. You are both loved the same by the child/children. 17. Conclude the matter quickly. The longer tension exists between you two, the more dangerous it grows. 18. Accept responsibility. Being mature doesn't mean you won't do wrong or fall short; it means that when you do mess you are wise enough to apologize. Say sorry if you are on the wrong, forgive when you are wronged. 19. Come up with a way forward to prevent the matter from happening again or from causing much damage in the future. 20. Hug. Kiss. Make up. Make love. 21. Laugh about it. Find comedy in your difficult times. No storm lasts always. You two will come out through it closer and stronger. Stay focused, your love is worth fighting for, not fighting each other.
