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.

Love God ... Love People

1. Love God ... Love People

"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'…and…'Love your neighbor as yourself'."1

Ron Clark of Tasmania, Australia, tells how he "read of a halfway house for men released from prison where they could stay until they got a job and somewhere to live. One young man had been in a penal institution for most of his adult life. One day as he sat in the lounge, the three-year-old daughter of the couple who ran the shelter crawled up onto his lap, put her arms around his neck and gave him a hug. With tears running down his cheeks he said, 'This is the first time I can remember anyone touching me in love.'

"A few weeks later he gave his life to Jesus Christ. God used that unique communication of physical contact and love to break the scars of all those years."

I recall reading in one of Leo Buscaglia's books about a fairly small child who went to a neighbor's house where a husband lived whose wife had died. When she returned home, her mother asked what she did. She said, "I just sat on his lap and helped him cry."

If there were one answer for the ills of the world, it could be summed up in the words of Jesus when he was asked by a lawyer, "Which was the greatest of all the commandments?" To which Jesus replied, "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."2

If we truly love God, we will serve him. We will also love people and do all we can to help them because we serve God by serving people.

Suggested prayer: "Dear God, please help me to love you with all of my heart, soul and mind, and love my neighbor as myself, and to serve you by giving and ministering to others. And help me to always do this with a pure motive—one that will glorify you in all that I am and do. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, in Jesus' name, amen."
