I'm also guilty.
I think there is no better way to
start this write up than the first three words above, I remember just a few
weeks ago when the first lady of our beloved country had a meeting with some
representatives of the Government Secondary School in Chibok and then she made
some statements which got a lot of people in every corner of the country to
show their dental formula which includes me.
But when I was in church last
week and we were about to pray for our beloved country when my attention was
drawn to the fact that she is the only person who had actually come out
publicly to declare that "There is God".
Truly there is God in the
situation of Nigeria because some nations didn't even the challenges this
nation is going through at the moment before there were in a state of disarray
or even no more, the results are all around us today.
Like the book of 1 Timothy 2:1-2
says "I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers,
intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and
[for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in
all godliness and honesty". I know what a you will be thinking at this
point, 'all this people and their prayers' will prayers really solve Nigeria's
problem but the Bible in 2 Corinthians 10:4 For the weapons of our warfare
[are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.
If prayer doesn't solve the problem, the cheap talk, back biting and the hash
tags alone also won’t solve the problem either, 1 Corinthians 1:27 says "
God chose the foolish/weak things of this world to shame the wise". As a
matter of fact prayer is one unique factor that has still be speaking for this
country till this very moment.
Folks, this country hasn't face
the challenges she is experiencing at this present moment but we all can do
more than more for her in the place of positive declarations, good deeds, acts
and also show a little more respect to the president.
