• LOVE AND BULLET
    PART 8
    The docks of Lagos burned with chaos.
    Smoke curled into the night sky, mixing with the salty tang of the ocean as gunfire echoed between shipping containers. Obinna moved like a shadow through the fray, his men flanking him—loyal, lethal, and fueled by vengeance. But tonight, the real weapon wasn’t Obinna.
    It was Ava.
    The Calm Before the Storm
    They had planned the attack meticulously.
    Obinna’s brother, Emeka, had grown arrogant. He’d taken control of the docks, thinking Obinna was weak—thinking he had nothing left to fight with.
    He was wrong.
    Ava adjusted the strap of her vest, her fingers brushing the handle of the knife secured at her thigh. She had spent years training for moments like this—elite tactical drills, precision shooting, hand-to-hand combat. But tonight wasn’t about duty.
    Tonight was personal.
    Obinna’s hand gripped her shoulder, his voice a low growl in her ear. “Remember—Emeka doesn’t get to die easy."
    Ava met his gaze, her own burning with the same fire. “I know.”
    Then the signal came.
    Ava Unleashed
    The first shot rang out, and all hell broke loose.
    Ava moved like a storm—fluid, unstoppable, deadly. She took cover behind a stack of crates, her pistol steady as she picked off Emeka’s men one by one. Headshots. Clean. Efficient.
    “Damn,” one of Obinna’s men muttered, watching her. “She fights like a demon.”
    Obinna smirked, reloading his weapon. “No. She fights like a queen.
    Ava wasn’t just holding her own—she was *dominating.
    Emeka’s men had expected Obinna. They had expected a war between brothers.
    They hadn’t expected her.
    The Fall of a King
    Emeka was hiding in the control tower, surrounded by his last loyal soldiers.
    Ava didn’t hesitate.
    She scaled the metal stairs, gunfire ringing around her, the scent of gunpowder thick in the air. One of Emeka’s guards lunged at her—she sidestepped, driving her knife into his ribs before shoving him over the railing.
    Then she kicked open the door.
    Emeka spun, his eyes widening in shock. “You—”
    Ava didn’t let him finish.
    She fired.
    The bullet grazed his thigh, sending him crashing to his knees with a scream.
    Obinna stepped in behind her, his boots thudding against the blood-slicked floor.
    “Hello, brother.”
    The Aftermath
    The docks fell silent.
    Emeka’s men, those still alive, dropped their weapons. Obinna’s soldiers stood in stunned awe, their eyes flicking between their boss and the woman who had just turned the tide of the war.
    Ava wiped blood from her lip, her chest rising and falling with adrenaline.
    Obinna walked toward her, his gaze burning with something deeper than victory.
    “You,” he said, his voice rough, “are magnificent.”
    Then, in front of everyone—his men, his enemies, the world—he pulled her into a searing kiss.

  • LOVE AND BULLET
    PART 7
    Dawn crept through the curtains like a thief, painting gold stripes across tangled limbs and rumpled sheets.
    Ava woke to the weight of Obinna’s arm draped possessively over her waist, his breath warm against her bare shoulder. For one hazy moment, she forgot—forgot she was a detective, forgot he was a criminal, forgot the world outside these four walls existed at all.
    Then reality crashed back in.
    The safe house was quiet except for the steady drip-drip of last night’s rain from the gutters outside. Obinna’s phone buzzed insistently on the nightstand, the screen lighting up with a message that made his arm tense around her.
    “We need to move.” His voice was rough with sleep, sending shivers down her spine.
    Ava turned in his arms, their noses almost brushing. “Who was that?”
    Obinna’s thumb traced idle circles on her hip. “My brother’s making his move.”
    The bathroom mirror reflected a version of herself Ava barely recognized—smudged mascara, kiss-bruised lips, the ghost of Obinna’s fingers still branding her skin. She turned the shower knob too hard, letting the scalding water punish her for last night’s weakness.
    But when she stepped out, steam curling around her, Obinna was leaning against the doorframe—shirtless, a fresh scar she hadn’t noticed before slashing across his ribs.
    “You stare like you’ve never seen me before,” he murmured, taking the towel from her hands.
    Ava swallowed as he dried her shoulders with agonizing slowness. “I haven’t. Not like this.”
    His lips quirked. “And how do you see me now, detective?"
    Dangerous. Addictive. Impossible to walk away from.
    She didn’t answer.
    Breakfast was a tense affair—fresh mango, warm puff-puff, bitter coffee. Obinna spread a map across the table, his fingers tapping Lagos Island.
    “My brother controls the docks now,” he said. “But he’s vulnerable here.”
    Ava studied the markings—warehouses, patrol routes, escape points. “This is a full-scale assault.”
    “It’s war.” Obinna’s gaze burned into hers. “And you’re going to help me win it.”
    Ava laughed incredulously. “Why would I do that?”
    He leaned forward, catching her wrist and pressing her palm flat against his chest. His heartbeat thundered under her fingers.
    “Because last night wasn’t just sex.” His voice dropped to a whisper. “And we both know it.”
    The Intimacy of Conspiracy
    Obinna dressed her himself—black tactical pants, a fitted bulletproof vest, knives strapped to her thighs. His hands lingered at every buckle, every strap, as if memorizing her.
    “This isn’t a disguise,” Ava realized as he braided her hair back with surprising tenderness. “It’s armor.”
    Obinna’s lips brushed the shell of her ear. “Today, I need you to be a weapon.”
    When he stepped back, Ava saw the change in his eyes—the softness from this morning hardened into something lethal. The Lion was back.
    At the door, Obinna caught her face between his hands. His kiss tasted like coffee and goodbye.
    “When this is over,” he vowed, “I’ll peel this armor off you one piece at a time.”
    Ava’s breath caught. “If we survive.”
    His smile was all teeth. “When we survive.”
    Then he was gone, leaving Ava with the ghost of his touch and a terrible realization—
    She no longer knew whose side she was on.

  • THE ARK LEGACY PROJECT- RECORDS AT STAKE

    Daniel Breakforth

    The Ark Legacy Project is set to be the largest indoor and roofed Church structure in history.

    The Ark legacy project is coming up in its best form and shape.

    The Ark is a spiritual surgical theatre for millions of lives and has kept many factories, construction companies, food and beverage companies, etc active for over 4 straight years.

    The Ark (66,753 Sqm) will be 3 times the size of St Peters Basilica (22, 000 Sqm) Vatican City and over 2 times the size of Our Lady of Peace Basilica (30, 000 Sqm)

    Presently....

    1,500 to 2000 workers work on 24 hour shifts 7 days a week at the site.

    It's main bowl will be larger (109,000) than all but one stadium in the world-The Rungrado Stadium, North Korea (114,000).

    It has more toilets (1, 200) than all but one stadium-Wembley Stadium (1, 643)

    It has bigger total capacity air conditioners than every indoor Church building in the world.

    It can contain more people than any indoor Church building in the world when all spaces are packed (200,000)

    It's overflow facility (Faith Tabernacle) was formerly the largest church auditorium in the world (50, 000 capacity)

    It will have more lifts, escalators and elevators than any building in the world.

    When size is juxtaposed with time, the Ark is possibly the fastest building ever built in Africa. Faith Tabernacle, also in Canaanland, Ota which is actually the fastest comes second when size is considered.

    The Ark is being built without a single bank facility, loan or foreign aid.

    Videos and pictures do not do justice to the sight of the Ark Project. If you love God and his Church and you visit the Ark, you will be awed, overwhelmed and filled with joy and gladness seeing the visible Hand of God at work.
    However if you hate the Church and you visit the Ark, you will be filled with sorrow, anger, sadness, bile, grief, hunger, desire to become a factory worker etc. You will also lose your sense of reasoning and start demanding from the Church instead of your government for your sustenance.

  • *OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL*

    *DATE: THURSDAY, JULY 24TH, 2025*

    *THEME: ANOINT AND PRAY OVER YOUR CHILDREN*

    *MEMORISE:*
    *"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” - (Joel 2:28)*

    *READ: 1 Samuel 16:12-13 (KJV)*

    12. So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the Lord said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!”

    13. Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

    *MESSAGE:*

    Parents cannot raise their children all by themselves. This is because many other factors are involved in a child's destiny that parents cannot control. Some of these factors include the environment where their children are growing up, the people they interact with, their genetic makeup, and even spiritual forces that surround their entire family and the children in particular. This is why, beyond all the things that parents do physically to raise their children, they must also pray for them regularly and seek God's help to raise them correctly. Parents must also anoint and pray over their children regularly to protect them from evil forces.

    In the short time that I have spent on the earth, I have seen the enemy work all manners of evil in the lives of children. Many times, some parents heap blames on their children for lacking focus, being unserious, or being lazy when they do not succeed, especially in their academics. They get frustrated that they are spending so much money on them without good results. They may not know that there might be forces of darkness that are hindering the child's progress. It is possible for a student to study very hard and just blank out in the examination hall. There was a case at the University of Lagos some years ago where, right in the examination hall, a young man just began to urinate non-stop. There was some pandemonium, and those around him began to call an ambulance. However, he told them that this was not the case for the doctor and that they should call his pastor instead. His pastor prayed for him, and he was healed.

    The anointing sets a child apart for greatness. Although David was destined to be the king of Israel, that destiny did not find expression until he was anointed. After he was anointed, the Bible says that the Spirit of the Lord came upon him from that day forward (1 Samuel 16:13). In the very next chapter, he killed the Philistine giant, Goliath, and became a national figure (1 Samuel 17:48-51). If you are a parent, speak God's counsel over your children and anoint them regularly. Let them know that they belong to God and that anyone who touches them touches the apple of God's eye (Zechariah 2:8). I pray that God will protect every child from the attacks of the enemy, in Jesus' name.

    *KEY POINT:*
    Anointing and praying over children regularly protects them from the devil's plans and sets them apart for greatness.

    *BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:*
    Isaiah 35-37

    *AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE*

    *HYMN 16 - 'TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS*

    1. 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
    Just to take Him at His Word;
    Just to rest upon His promise;
    Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord."

    *CHORUS:*
    Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
    How I've proved Him o'er and o'er!
    Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
    O for grace to trust Him more!

    2. O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
    Just to trust His cleansing blood;
    Just in simple faith to plunge me
    'Neath the healing cleansing flood!

    3. Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
    Just from sin and self to cease;
    Just from Jesus simply taking
    Life and rest, and joy and peace.

    4. I'm so glad I learn'd to trust Thee,
    Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend,
    And I know that Thou art with me,
    Wilt be with me to the end.
    *OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL* *DATE: THURSDAY, JULY 24TH, 2025* *THEME: ANOINT AND PRAY OVER YOUR CHILDREN* *MEMORISE:* *"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” - (Joel 2:28)* *READ: 1 Samuel 16:12-13 (KJV)* 12. So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the Lord said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!” 13. Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah. *MESSAGE:* Parents cannot raise their children all by themselves. This is because many other factors are involved in a child's destiny that parents cannot control. Some of these factors include the environment where their children are growing up, the people they interact with, their genetic makeup, and even spiritual forces that surround their entire family and the children in particular. This is why, beyond all the things that parents do physically to raise their children, they must also pray for them regularly and seek God's help to raise them correctly. Parents must also anoint and pray over their children regularly to protect them from evil forces. In the short time that I have spent on the earth, I have seen the enemy work all manners of evil in the lives of children. Many times, some parents heap blames on their children for lacking focus, being unserious, or being lazy when they do not succeed, especially in their academics. They get frustrated that they are spending so much money on them without good results. They may not know that there might be forces of darkness that are hindering the child's progress. It is possible for a student to study very hard and just blank out in the examination hall. There was a case at the University of Lagos some years ago where, right in the examination hall, a young man just began to urinate non-stop. There was some pandemonium, and those around him began to call an ambulance. However, he told them that this was not the case for the doctor and that they should call his pastor instead. His pastor prayed for him, and he was healed. The anointing sets a child apart for greatness. Although David was destined to be the king of Israel, that destiny did not find expression until he was anointed. After he was anointed, the Bible says that the Spirit of the Lord came upon him from that day forward (1 Samuel 16:13). In the very next chapter, he killed the Philistine giant, Goliath, and became a national figure (1 Samuel 17:48-51).

  • If you're single.
    If you’re single in this generation, don’t let anyone pressure you into lowering your standards when it comes to choosing a partner.
    There is nothing wrong with waiting for a man who is spiritually mature and grounded in his beliefs.
    Stand firm in your convictions, and don’t let anyone make you feel guilty for doing so.
    Choosing a partner is one of the most important decisions you will ever make.
    As the head of your future home, he will have a profound spiritual influence on you and your children.
    It is far better to be criticized for having high standards than to rush into a decision ....... you may regret for a lifetime.

  • A healthy relationship.
    In a healthy relationship, you should feel comfortable talking through your emotions.
    You should feel encouraged to speak about what is going through your mind or what is concerning you.
    If you happen to have a problem with something your partner has said or done, you should feel comfortable talking to them about it to them without fear of the conversation escalating into a fight.
    You should feel confident that no matter what is wrong, you are going to overcome the problem and find a solution as a team because it's called a partnership.
    You shouldn’t feel compelled to hide what is bothering you in order to keep the peace.
    You shouldn’t feel like you have to walk on eggshells, otherwise it will cause complications in the near future between the two of you.
    You shouldn’t feel like you need to hide any part of yourself, because your partner should want to know how you’re feeling at all times.
    Even if it hurts to hear what they’ve done to upset you, they should still want to hear it because they care about your opinion.
    After all, if you never tell them what is wrong, they are never going to realize why you are upset.
    They are never going to have the chance to change their behavior.
    They are never going to be able to work towards bettering themselves and down the line, you are going to end up resenting them for it.
    That is why your best option is to act straightforward from the start.
    Tell your partner what is on your mind, even when the words are hard to say.
    Refuse to hold anything back, because in a healthy relationship, you should show them every side of yourself.
    You should be completely and utterly you.
    Remember, you being honest about your feelings isn’t the same as you causing drama.
    You shouldn’t feel like you’re doing your relationship a disservice by bringing up complaints, because really, your relationship would suffer more if you bottled everything up inside.
    Even though you might feel awkward bringing up the things that have been bothering you, you should be rest assured that not every single problem in your relationship should lead to an argument.
    You should be able to talk to your partner about things that you are unhappy about without them getting upset at you, without them attacking you, without them accusing you of acting overly emotional.
    When you’re with the right person, you are going to have uncomfortable conversations, but those type of conversations are the foundation to a healthy relationship.

  • *10 ways to Honour Your Pastor*

    Your pastor is a gift from God, called to feed, guide, and watch over your soul. Honouring your pastor isn’t just an act of kindness—it’s a biblical principle that brings blessing into your life and strengthens the church. Here are 10 ways you can show honour and appreciation:

    (1) Pray for Them Regularly

    Cover your pastor and their family in prayer. Ask God to strengthen them, protect them, and give them fresh vision.

    (2) Speak Well of Them

    Guard your words. Refuse to join gossip or criticism. Instead, build them up with your speech—both publicly and privately.

    (3) Support Their Vision

    Get involved in the work God has laid on their heart. Serve faithfully and help carry the load.

    (4) Give Generously

    Sow into their lives and the ministry financially. Honour often requires sacrifice.

    (5) Celebrate Milestones

    Remember their birthday, anniversary, or special achievements. A simple gesture can mean so much.

    (6) Be Teachable

    Receive the Word with humility. Apply their teachings to your life and show you value the spiritual nourishment you’re receiving.

    (7) Protect Their Time

    Respect their need for rest and family time. Avoid unnecessary demands outside appropriate times.

    (8) Encourage Them

    Send a message, write a note, or simply say, “Thank you for all you do.” Encouragement fuels their passion.

    (9) Defend Their Integrity

    Stand up for your pastor when others speak negatively. Be a shield, not a dagger.

    (10) Live Out What You’ve Learned
    The greatest honour you can give is to grow spiritually and live in a way that glorifies God.

    “Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you. Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work. Live in peace with each other.”

    (1Thessalonians 5:12–13)

    When you honour your pastor, you honour God who called and sent them. Let’s be intentional in showing appreciation to men of God .
