WHY AFRICANS PRAY MORE THAN THE REST OF THE WORLD IS BECAUSE IN AFRICA, GOD DOES THE JOB OF THE GOVERNMENT! 1. ELECTRICITY ⚡ AFRICA: “Oh Lord, let there be light! Even if it’s for 2 hours!” EUROPE: “This LED bulb is too yellow, I’m returning it.” TRUTH: In Africa, power supply is a prayer point. In Europe, it’s a basic right. 2. WATER SUPPLY 🚿 AFRICA: “God, let it rain so we can fetch water!” EUROPE: “My shower is too cold. Fix it or I sue!” TRUTH: In Europe, taps flow. In Africa, faith flows. 3. JOBS & EMPLOYMENT 💼 AFRICA: “Jehovah, bless me with any job. Even volunteer, I’ll manage!” EUROPE: “I’m rejecting that role. The salary doesn’t reflect my worth.” TRUTH: In Africa, unemployment is a fasting topic. In Europe, it’s a policy issue. 4. SECURITY 🚔 AFRICA: “Father, may no stray bullet locate me today!” EUROPE: “There’s a suspicious sound outside, police arrived in 4 mins.” TRUTH: There, safety is law. Here, safety is prayer and luck. 5. ROADS & INFRASTRUCTURE 🛣️ AFRICA: “Lord, don’t let this pothole swallow my destiny.” EUROPE: “This small crack on the road is unacceptable!” TRUTH: In Africa, a smooth road is a testimony. In Europe, it’s standard. 6. HEALTHCARE 🏥 AFRICA: “Jesus, let the injection work, and not the side effect!” EUROPE: “Therapist booked. Medication free. Follow-up scheduled.” TRUTH: One gets healthcare from government. The other gets hope from prayer warriors. 7. EDUCATION ✏️ AFRICA: “God, let WAEC release results with mercy I sowed a seed 💰!” EUROPE: “Government paid for my Master’s. I got a scholarship too.” TRUTH: There, education is an investment. Here, it’s a miracle. 8. PENSION & RETIREMENT 👴🏽 AFRICA: “Jehovah, don’t let my pension be swallowed by corruption!” EUROPE: “I retired. Government sends monthly check.” REALITY: Here, retirement is fear and fasting. There, it’s relaxation and benefits. 9. VISA REQUEST ✈️ AFRICA: “Oh Lord, break every generational curse stopping this UK visa!” EUROPE: “I need a break. Might fly to Ghana for the weekend.” REALITY: In Africa, travelling = fasting, faith, and fire oil. In Europe, travelling = booking.com and a suitcase. BUT HERE’S THE REAL PROBLEM… High death rates Joblessness Poor security Land battles turning spiritual Sick people dying at church crusades instead of hospitals …because African leaders ENJOY it when you dump your problems on an imported god instead of holding them accountable! Why should they build hospitals when you'll run to prayer camps? By his stripes you're healed right? Why fix the road when your busy praying for travelling mercy on a deadly road? Why create jobs when your faith says “God will provide”? They know you won’t protest. You’ll just pray. And that’s how they win. AFRICANS WILL RAISE MILLIONS TO BUILD A CATHEDRAL……but won’t donate a dime to upgrade the clinic where their own mothers give birth on rusted beds with no gloves. We’ll buy: Imported church instruments HD projectors Shiny marble altars Designer suits for “Papa” And bulletproof cars for “Daddy G.O” Meanwhile, the local hospital: Has no electricity No running water One nurse doing the work of five And a doctor using a torchlight to deliver babies. AND HERE’S THE PLOT TWIST: The pastor you’re funding for “God’s work” won’t even treat malaria in that same country. When he's sick? Private jet to Europe. When you're sick? Pray. Fast. Sow a seed. Hope the hospital has Panadol. FINAL THOUGHT: God is NOT your governor. Angels are NOT civil engineers. Your miracle is called good governance. Stop calling on jesus/allah about things your local government chairman should’ve done. This is why most religious Africans tend to be less or non-religious

"Destiny, stop hiding behind cameras. Stop hiding around people. When you see me at an event, don't try to run away. Do you know one day we were all on a business class flight and she came and waited, then she was the last to book. She entered and started making calls. Destiny, if you admire me and want to be my friend, make it clear, because I refuse to have you as a friend in the industry. You're a cônfused admirer. If you love me this much and want to be my friend, just come and tell me. You're always in a competition. I'm not in a competition. I just want real people living a normal life in low key. My song Legit you hear? I put 300 million naira. The money I spent only for my skin routine is higher than her entire career." – Angela Moral lesson trouble dey dey sleep enyanga go wake am

The flaws you can manage in a man, and the toxic habits you can't endure. 2. Emotional Maturity Can you handle disagreements without losing control? Can you forgive, communicate, and listen to your man with love? In as much as you're willing to be a submissive wife, understand that You won't always agree with your husband.

A Prayer Life Marriage will challenge your emotions, your faith, your patience, and your strength— and that's why you must start now to build your relationship with God. A praying woman builds her home in wisdom. So Start now! Make prayer your anchor, not your backup plan. A kneeling woman is a winning woman! Dear unmarried lady, Marriage won't fix your life, it will add to it. So build a life you love— then share it with a man who truly values it. Building yourself means you don't expect your man to complete you— you're already whole. So as a single lady, you must understand that becoming a wife is not just about finding the right man, it's about becoming the right woman. A wife is not just a title, it's a calling, and preparation is key. Don't just sit and be waiting to be chosen— Prepare yourself too to choose wisely, to love deeply, and to thrive in your marriage, not just survive in it. Marriage is meant to be ENJOYED ✅, not to be ENDURED ❌. You are worth the wait. PEACE!🕊️

In the book Outwitting the Devil, there is this profound statement that I came across: "It is a sin to remain in ignorance because that leads to poverty and loss of self-reliance." In 2025, while the world debates AI disruption, economic downturns, and talent wars, a quieter plague keeps spreading unchecked. Not the absence of data, but the absence of deliberate understanding. That distinction matters. Napoleon Hill’s Outwitting the Devil didn’t miss words: “It is a sin to remain in ignorance because that leads to poverty and loss of self-reliance.” And it’s true. The greatest mountain you’ll ever face is not your competition, your background, or your economy, it’s what you don’t know and refuse to learn. Every time you outsource your thinking, ignore emerging trends, or operate by outdated assumptions, you’re silently licensing poverty, not just in your wallet, but in your decisions, relationships, and influence.

They died from strategic ignorance, misreading market signals, misjudging buyer behavior, or misunderstanding internal capabilities. Not lack of opportunity. Lack of perception. Ignorance isn’t passive. It’s aggressive. It robs confidence, delays execution, and deceives you into thinking you’re safer than you are. The solution? Kill ignorance like it’s your sworn enemy, because it is. Read, study & practice obsessively. Ask uncomfortable questions. Audit what you “know.” Seek perspective like your success depends on it, because it does. Growth doesn’t begin with action. It begins with awareness. And those who scale in impact, income, and influence, are those who treat ignorance as a problem to be solved, not a personality trait to be excused. The truth? You don’t rise by chance. You rise by clarity, earned through the disciplined demolition of what you don’t yet understand. And that journey starts today. Dr. Joybert Javnyuy

Who we want in a Relationship. We want someone to come into our lives who knows how to manage emotional trauma, that has intelligence, and someone that can give us the world without us even asking. Countless nights go by and we catch ourselves praying that maybe tomorrow we will find our soulmate that will make everything feel like a book that Nicholas Sparks wrote. We want someone that notices us on a daily basis, respects us, admires us and treats us like a priority rather than an option. We want someone who wants to protect our well-being and invests their time in our own happiness. We want to be with someone who isn't afraid to hurt others people's feelings to protect ours. We want someone who wakes up everyday looking for new ways to love us. We want someone who chooses us under any circumstance. We want to be with someone who refuses to entertain any other person that's not us. We want someone that will continue chasing us long after, they have already had us. We all will eventually find someone who will give us the love and affection we have always longed for, but you always have to remember no matter what... It’s never too late to find someone who appreciates and values you for who you truly are as a person inside and out. Take my advice .... and always remember that your time is precious. So don't waste it on someone who doesn't realize you are too. ~ written by Strawberry Tech Media ➥𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐤𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐨 𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐰𝐞𝐲𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐌𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐢 𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐰𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐳𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐨😭🙏❤‍🩹 ``🍓🌟🍓🌟🍓💛💜💙💛🍓
