UPHOLDING GOD'S STANDARD IN SEASONS OF TRANSITION  Dear beloved, thank you for your message and for sharing your thoughts with such passion and scriptural references. I appreciate the heart you expressed toward leadership continuity and the preservation of God’s work. However, for the sake of truth, clarity, and spiritual integrity, it is important to lovingly address some points you raised. 1. God’s Work Is Built on Truth, Not Sentiment The Scriptures teach us that “God is not the author of confusion” (1 Cor. 14:33). Leadership transition in the Body of Christ must be guided by righteousness, transparency, and obedience to God — not by covering unrighteousness. When practices or behaviours contradict the values and doctrines laid down by Christ and upheld by the founder, correction is not “scattering,” it is restoring order (Gal. 6:1). 2. Correction Is Part of Spiritual Continuity You quoted Philippians 2:1–4, which emphasizes humility, unity, and looking beyond personal interest....

We Are Refined for a Purpose: The Five Phases God Uses to Fulfill His Will in Our Lives Throughout Scripture, God reveals a consistent pattern in how He refines His people—shaping them through seasons of challenge, testing, and transformation to fulfill His divine purposes. Like gold purified by fire, God’s chosen are made radiant through trial. The Bible is rich with imagery of refining, as in “He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver” (Malachi 3:3, NIV). From Abraham to Paul, the journey to God’s calling often passes through five distinct phases. 1. From Comfort to Calling In “The Lord had said to Abram, ‘Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing’” (Genesis 12:1–2, NIV), God calls Abram away from security and familiarity into an unknown future. This fi...

HIDE ME TILL I'M READY 💌 Dear Lord, if it'll take years for me to be ready for your service, please hide me in the secret place. Hide me until I am ready to serve, not out of my will but Yours. My earnest prayer is: May impatience not cause me my service like Gehazi because he wasn't willing to go through river Jordan like Elisha for a double portion. ~ Lord, take me across Jordan till my impatience drowns in the river. May I not fail in leadership like King Solomon because he didn't go through Adullam (the place of purging) like David his father. ~ Lord, keep me in Adullam till I'm purified from the things of this world. May I not run away from your calling like Jonah because he didn't see a burning bush like Moses before he was called. ~ Lord, let me encounter the burning bush before facing Pharaoh. May I not lose my destiny in the laps of women like Samson because he failed to drop his lust in Potiphar's house like Joseph. ~ Lord, if it'll take You t...

OJUJU CALABAR👺👹👿 Some of the most popular scary lines used in Nigeria to scare kids is “OJUJU is coming” “I WILL CALL OJUJU FOR YOU” “OJUJU CALABAR WILL CARRY YOU”. 😂On hearing this, many children will compose themselves and some will even start crying. Many of this children have their own fears, some even domestic animals like chicken, dog and cat scare them. Some even SANTA CLAUS😂😂 How can a baby be crying because of Santa Claus.  Here is my point👇🏻 You can boldly laugh and be amazed at such childlike behavior not because it’s really not scary but because you have grown, you are mature✅ Basically, OJUJU is a guise for MASQUERADE and not all are dangerous. They aren’t really meant to actually, it’s just the way they are that makes them scary.  I served in CALABAR, CROSS RIVER and it’s almost like this people doesn’t take OJUJU break. Everywhere you go, any day and anytime they like, they carry masquerade even some with Banana leaves yet it didn’t even affect. Infact, ...

*ANCEDRAM ADO-ODO/OTA UNIT SUCCINCT REPORT IN THE LAST 5YEARS (2019–2025)* To God be the glory for the great and mighty things He has done in and through our Two tenures. *SOME OF OUR ACHIEVEMENTS SO FAR* 1. We were elected into the office on Sunday 9th February, 2020, the year Covid-19 was so strong in Nigeria. Due to that, we were warned not to have any physical meeting because of Government's order that forbids social gathering, so we didn't have any physical meeting and as new Executives in a fresh tenure, we began to look at what we can be doing, that's when we came up with the idea of utilising our long-existing but abandoned WhatsApp platform for meetings and the likes. 2. We later came up with organising a-two day Online Training where we had Deacon Moses Oyedokun (the past immediate Coordinator) who took us in Script writing and Acting in the first day, then on the second day, Bro. Lekan Salami took us in Terminology in Film making, those two days were really impac...
