2 - Year Old Child Recites Psalm 23

 


2-Year Old Recites Psalm 23

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wf2BrZFXiTk?si=669nIq1wyiX18EiT



Psalms 23:1-6 (KJV)

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Amen!

HALLELUJAH!






 HALLELUJAH!

Testimony time!

Blessing time.

The two songs I have promised to Almighty God to record and publish are " Your Majesty, God Almighty" in English and " Soso Nanighi Ka Ngefe" in Igbo, meaning, "You Are the Only One I Worship" which I have composed and have been singing during my early morning praise and worship. And they have been inspired by His Holy Spirit.


When you are in the fullness of the presence of Almighty God, nothing else matters in the world.

You are ready to be with Him forever.

For in His presence, He gives you the utterance of His Holy Spirit.

For in His presence, there is fullness of Joy forever.

When you know Him in Spirit and in Truth, 

He speaks to you aloud and clear audibly for you to hear Him.

Until you experience the presence of God in the Holy Spirit, you don't have any relationship with God.

HALLELUJAH!

I will receive the support I have been waiting for to produce the two songs before Christmas!.

He will send me the divine helpers. 

He has done it before and He will do it again.

"Your Majesty, God Almighty!" Is an amazing song of redemption and salvation with heavenly chorus.

My doxology of 42 pages composed decades ago is as awesome as Handel's Messiah.

What Pleases God?

 


What Pleases God?

◄ Matthew 5:8 ►

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

***"

If you are not pure in heart 💓

You can never see God

You can pretend to the whole world,

Cite and quote verses from Holy Bible

Flashing smiles from miles

Name dropping God on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and on WhatsApp.

But if you don't appreciate and celebrate fellow humans like you want others to appreciate and celebrate you, you don't have any relationship with God.

As He said: those who know God worship Him in Truth and in Spirit.

Not in CONCEIT

Not in DECEIT 

Not in Lies

Not in Lip service and Eye Service.

You can fool the whole world, but you can't fool God.

God knows those who truly loves Him.

As He said:

If you love me; obey my commandments.

And He says if you say you love Him, but you hate your brother or sister, you are a Liar.

If you want to have a true relationship with God;

You must have a pure heart:

Without bitterness

Without envy

Without jealousy

Without Caprice

Without malice

Without prejudice

Without avarice

Without greediness

Without wickedness

Without worshipping idols

Without whoredom.

People look at faces.

But God looks at the hearts.

For what matters most to God is for you to have a pure heart.

And worship Him in Truth and in Spirit.

Let us pray.

The Word of God is the Greatest Power in the World

 Psalm 68:11 

The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.

Many people perish every day in the world
Because of their ignorance of the Word of God.

I obeyed the Word of God in 1988 when I had all the money to tour the world after working as a public health illustrator for the Johns Hopkins University's Population Communication Services (JHU/PCS) to produce fully illustrated family planning methods booklets in Pidgin English, Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa distributed by the Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria (PPFN)) for the entire Nigeria. I was 21 and I have signed a recording contract for the production of my songs in Hollywood with all the looks and guts to be a rock star with my starry eyes, brown skin and bushy hair and walking tall. I have already written and directed my first play, "The Prodigal" for the Education Unit of National Museum on Lagos Island and profiled in the Times International news magazine interviewed by Henry Atenaga, a friend of Ben Okri when I was only 17. At 21 featured in the highly esteemed West Africa newsmagazine for my popular Captain Santana and his flying motorcycle comics. I became a national Program Consultant for the UNICEF in Nigeria at 25. Then in 1988 I became born again from the Roman Catholic Church to the Deeper Christian Life Ministry of Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi who had sown the seed of evangelism into my life in 1978 when I spent my long school holidays attending his school holidays classes.
From 1988 I preached the good news of the gospel of our MESSIAH JESUS Christ on the streets and on public transport buses in Lagos in English, Igbo and Yoruba for over 11 years. From the street I moved on to the internet I started my online ministry, The Rhema Blog in 2005.
The Rhema Blog is very popular among visitors from over 12 countries in the world.
I share the Word of God with testimonies of the Truth.

The greatest power is the Word of God.
And the greatest power comes from the prayer in the Word of God.
I see the world through the Eyes of God.

Fake Ministers of God Teaching False Doctrines on the Holy Spirit and Speaking in Tongues



Fake Ministers of God Teaching False Doctrines on the Holy Spirit and Speaking in Tongues

No one can speak in the tongues of the Holy Spirit without the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

You cannot speak in the tongues of the Holy Spirit if the Holy Spirit has not given you the utterrance. 

Any GO, Pastor, Reverend, Bishop and Apostle who commands, says and tells you to just start speaking in tongues without firstly having the baptism of the Holy Spirit and without the Holy Spirit giving you the utterrance to speak is lying and  misleading you.

Again, don't forget it is written in 1 Corinthians 14:

27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.

28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God."

DON'T BE MISLED BY FALSE DOCTRINES OF DECEIVERS CLAIMING TO BE MINISTERS OF GOD.

Read the entire 1 Corinthians 14 after reading the following again:

Acts 2: 1-11:

1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.

7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

When the Living Water of Life Asks for Water


When the Living Water of Life Asks for Water

Do you know that majority of Christian ministers, including the GOs, Bishops, apostles, pastors and reverends have not asked the Holy Spirit to teach them why our Lord JESUS Christ asked the Samaritan woman for water. And in fact, many of them are actually like the Samaritan woman whenever they meet anyone and the person asks for water. 

Many of them have failed to learn from the Chapter 10:

"Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water."

John 4:5-15

5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)

9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

Study 1 John 5 vs 7-8

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one

Which is Worse? Intellectual Ignorance or Spiritual Ignorance?

 


Which is worse?
Intellectual Ignorance or Spiritual Ignorance?

There is an epidemic of both intellectual ignorance and spiritual ignorance in Nigeria.

The widespread decline of reading culture among the majority of Nigerians in Nigeria shows daily in the poor intellectual comprehension of current affairs of societal ethics and politics in the country.
Majority of Nigerians are intellectual illiterates who cannot express themselves in English grammar. Many of the political leaders, including the leading presidential candidates in the 2023 presidential election could not express themselves explicitly in English and had challenges in articulation.

There is also widespread spiritual ignorance among majority of Nigerians, because of their religious hypocrisy.
Majority of Nigerians claiming to be "Christians" are just mere churchgoers without any relationship with God.
Because I have repeatedly said that without any relationship with the Holy Spirit you cannot have a relationship with God.

Going to church does not make you a Christian.
Obeying the commandments of God is what makes you a true Christian.
Without obedience, there is no relationship with God.

Quoting the verses from the Holy Bible and preaching is useless to God without obedience to God.

You cannot claim to be a Christian and you are ruled by conceit and deceit.
You cannot claim to be a Christian and you are ruled by avarice, caprice, malice and prejudice.
By envy and jealousy.
By greediness and wickedness.
Then you live in denial of the truth.

Read 2 Timothy 3:

3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

READ THE ENTIRE CHAPTER IN THE HOLY BIBLE.

HALLELUJAH! He Has Risen!

Matthew 28

1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.

12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,

13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.

14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.

15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

PRESIDENT BUHARI’S 2023 EASTER MESSAGE TO NIGERIANS

PRESIDENT BUHARI’S 2023 EASTER MESSAGE TO NIGERIANS

I join Christians in Nigeria and around the world to celebrate Easter, which commemorates the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, signposting his victory over death.

At the heart of Easter, is the triumph of light over darkness.

It is a season that reminds us that the Almighty can turn an unpleasant situation round for good.

Recognising that Easter is about renewed hope and a glorious future, I urge all Nigerians to continue to be confident and believe strongly in our country for better seasons ahead.

As a nation, we have gone through an election that has produced the next set of leaders at the federal and State levels.

I commend Nigerians for believing in the process. While I congratulate those that have been elected, I acknowledge that it is the right of those who feel dissatisfied with the outcome to seek redress. I expect them to wait patiently and allow our legal system run its course.

It has been a rare privilege for me to serve as your President since you gave me the first mandate in 2015 and renewed it in 2019.

Day after day, I have been guided by the vows I took to keep Nigeria united, prosperous and secure.

Our successes on security, economy, infrastructure, new oil frontier basins, landmark legal reforms as well as food sufficiency, among others, were possible because of the support of Nigerians.

As we celebrate this season with our families, neighbors and communities, let us do so in love, compassion, kindness, resilience and forgiveness.

Happy Easter!

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu: Judgement Belongs To Almighty God

Job 22:29

When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and He shall save the humble person.

(New King James Version)

What matters most are not the comments and opinions of the enemies of your progress, but your faith in Almighty God who will not judge you by what people say, because before Him all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

They called  him ThiefTinubu and
Druggie, but even among his accusers are unrepentant adulterers, fornicators, hypocrites, liars, greedy and wicked people who pay lip service and eye service in their false religion.
Who among them is holier, let him stand naked before Almighty God and ask for justice.

Psalm 130:3-4 

If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, That thou mayest be feared.

(King James Version (KJV)


Those who see people through the eyes of the world
Will never know and will never see God.

Come, humble yourself and sit
And let us learn at the feet of the Holy Spirit.
For He is the revealer of every secret.

What's own story?

Everyone has a story,
But not everyone will make history.

Author of "The Prophet Lied", "In the House of Dogs" and other books.

The Power of the Gift of Discernment

Fake Christians Can Only Be Fooled By Fake Pastors, Fake Bishops and False Prophets

Without the Gift of Discernment, majority of the so called men and women of God, the Papas and Mamas and Daddies and Mommies have failed to see through fake ministers and fake Christians.
They have mistaken mere churchgoers for Christians.

I don't know how Papa and Mama will give a standing ovation to a visitor who has come to the dome for political campaign and later returns to his whited sepulchre to kneel and bow down to graven images and statues in a shrine.

Did our Lord not warn us that even the Antichrist comes in the form of an Angel of Light?

Our Lord, Redeemer, Saviour and MESSIAH JESUS Christ clearly showed how to separate the sheep from the goats.
By their fruits you shall know them.
Actions speak louder than words.
Not name dropping God, quoting verses and HALLELUJAH in lip service and eye service.

The lifestyles of conceit and deceit will only expose your buffoonery.

Let me repeat again: WITHOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT YOU CANNOT HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

It is not by mere going to church.
Being emotional is not being spiritual.

The Holy Spirit is Real.
The Holy Spirit is God.

You may fool the whole world
But you cannot fool Almighty God.

Hosea 4:6 NKJV

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.


NKJV: New King James Version

Only the Pure in Heart will See God

Good morning.

Arise and shine.

Psalm 103 verse 5 has been written and as I have spoken the verse it is fulfilled in my life.

For He renews my youth like the Eagle's.

Only the pure in 💓 heart see God.

The impure in heart will never see God.

- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima.

If you like go to church one million times;

Sing along in chorus with the choir in your eye service and lip service!

Buy gifts for your pastor and bishop and church of whited sepulchre of your conceit and deceit; 

You are a mere church goer and not a true Christian.

What makes a true Christian?

You must believe in God and worship Him in Spirit and in Truth; and you must adhere to what is written in 1 Corinthians 13.

Finis.

I am Who I am by the grace of Almighty God.

Celebrate Those Who Celebrate You

 


Celebrate Those Who Celebrate You

    Those who discern your worth deserve special recognition. Even Jesus instructed His disciples to respect those who received them and disconnect from those who rejected them. Go where your contribution is celebrated. Jesus did.

Scripture Reference

Matthew 10:11-13 :

"And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. And when ye come into an house, salute it. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you."

Do Christians and Churches Obey 1 Corinthians 13?

Do Christians and Churches Obey 1 Corinthians 13?

1
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
