Stop Public Transport Buses From Coming To The Redemption Camp

Stop Public Transport Buses From Coming To The Redemption Camp

Another bad news of people killed in road accident while returning from the annual RCCG convention at the Redemption Camp in Ogun State made headlines.

This was not the first occurrence  of such a tragic incident. But such accidents can be prevented.

The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) should charter enough buses for going to and returning from the Redemption Camp and stop public transport buses from coming to Redemption Camp to convey members of the church.

If you invite people to programmes at the Redemption Camp and other locations, you are also responsible for their safety, security and welfare. 

Don't abandon them after the programmes.

Many of the public transport buses are run by owners, drivers and conductors who are cultists and ritualists and worshippers of idols. I call them "Awon Omo Ise Esu" in the Yoruba language which means workers of 😈 devils or Satan.

The drivers are often intoxicated with alcohol and other dangerous drugs.

They often increase transport fares to extort thousands of congregants after the Holy Ghost nights of praise and worship. I have seen many congregants walking miles when they cannot afford the transport fares. I once joined a group to trek from the Redemption Camp to the Berger Bus Stop in solidarity when they could not afford the inflated transport fares.

Many of the public transport buses coming to the Redemption Camp are run by agents of principalities and powers of darkness. 

Most of them don't participate in the praise and worship. 

They just wait at the parking lot until after the services like hungry predators waiting for their preys.

By their reckless driving, you will know that they are possessed by demons.

Many pastors and other ministers of Christian churches in Nigeria lack wisdom.

They have eyes, but yet they cannot see beyond their noses.

They have ears, but they cannot hear beyond their earlobes.

They don't have the spiritual gift of discernment.

I have been praying to Almighty God JEHOVAH JIREH to bless, favour and prosper me abundantly to enable me purchase enough buses for the transportation of people going to the Redemption Camp and other locations for programmes of the church.

Even if I have to provide 5000 buses.

The fleet of buses will be used for the transportation of school children and teachers on days they will not be used for missionary programmes.

When the Minaret Became Silent

When the Minaret Became Silent

I have not heard the adhan  أَذَان‎ call to prayer by the muezzin from the minaret at the mosque on my street since the #lockdown was declared by the federal government for the control and prevention of further spread of the #Coronavirus in Nigeria. Religious congregations have been banned and all gatherings of people in crowds must not be more than twenty and they must put on facemasks.
How can someone shout "HALLELUJAH" or "Allāhu akbar" when wearing a facemask?
Will Almighty God accept muzzled praises of "HALLELUJAH!", "Al-Ḥamdu lillāh!" or "Allāhu ʾakbar!"?

The voices of the muezzin and I were the first voices neighbours heard at dawn around 5.30am.
The sound of my "HALLELUJAH!" in my bedroom to begin my early morning prayers, praises and worship of our Almighty God JEHOVAH sometimes came first before the sound of the muezzin's Takbir, ʾAllāhu ʾakbar!
Many times, my closest neighbours complained about the loud sound of my baritone voice in praising Almighty God. But I always chose to make a joyful noise unto the Lord, because it a written
command to us to make a joyful noise unto the Lord (Psalm 66:1; 95:1–2; 100:1; 1 Chronicles 15:16) and in Psalm 149:5 -6:
"5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;" There is power in prayer.
Every faithful believer has that power written in Psalm 149:7-9.

HALLELUJAH!

I have always lived with mosques on my street since childhood; from Obalende on the Lagos Island to Shomolu, Mushin, Gbagada, Ikotun Egbe and Jibowu on the Lagos mainland. The voice of the muezzin from the minaret of the mosque in Jibowu was the loudest ever and he often woke up the entire neighbourhood from Lawani Street to Tani Olodo Street leading to the popular Jibowu Bus Stop, the motor park of several transport vehicles for interstate travels.
This is from my notes two weeks ago.

I am now missing the voice of the muezzin since I relocated from Jibowu to a nearby middle class neighbourhood in Yaba, where there is the St. Dominic's Roman Catholic Church and without any mosque nearby.
