KIKI EFEBO




One day I was in fellowship and I noticed three lovely ladies staring at me. I felt awkward because I somehow knew they were talking about the testimony I had given during anniversary about my changed life. I moved past them telling myself that's their business. A few days later one of them walks up to me and told me things that made me cry and after that she became my personal baby. She became my first mentee ever.
When you meet her you first think she will be a snub and full of herself because of her good looks but her warmth will endear you to her instantly.
Fashionista,  make up lover, lover of children, responsible (had to drag her into protocol ), extremely respectful, talented, focused, very willing to learn and most importantly a beautiful girl with anointing.

Kilete Efebo,  theres no way i wont celebrate you on this platform, you encouraged me when I thought I was rambling,  thank you for commenting first on my first ever post, thank you for making me more responsible by constantly looking out for you.
Happy birthday darling.

WHAT DRIVES YOUR CHRISTIANITY?

A few years ago, I introduced a friend to another friend to do some business  and it went downhill.
It it got nasty very quickly and I was caught in the middle of the drama. In fact I am was going to be arrested by my friend o.
The interesting thing is both of them are tongue talking Christians yet one of them said she will never do business with a Christian again.

A few weeks ago a pastor was interviewed at a radio station and when the phone lines were open, it was like hell was let loose. it sounded like everyone had been waiting for him, they abused the living lights out of him.
And it goes on and on and on and on. ..
The painful part is it don't blame them much because many of us are not eternity conscious. We don't think about how God feels about what we are doing after we have received salvation  (me inclusive). In the days of ignorance, God will indeed overlook  (the key word being "IGNORANCE")

Do you know what drives terrorists? A reward about virgins gifted to them.  What should drive us Christians is the fact that we don't want to hear the word "DEPART" from our heavenly Father on that day.

WITH AGE..

There's this joke about women and marriage that says
At 20 a woman wants a tall, dark, rich, handsome and funky man.
At 30 a woman wants a tall, rich , handsome and God fearing man
At 35 a woman wants a rich, handsome and God fearing man
At 40 a woman wants a rich and God fearing man
At 45 a woman wants a God fearing man
At 50 a woman wants a man.

The joke is meant to depict desperation in women  and lowering their standards because of societal pressure. It used to be so funny and I used to agree with it.

It only just occurred to me that it isn't desperation that makes women strike off a lot of stuff from their 'spec' list but wisdom and maturity that most times comes with age.

No right thinking 30 something years old would want an "I feel alright", "trouser sagging", "club hopping" guy these days. That individual has no vision. And trust me if you are looking for such a man, you are also vision less and your case na "double wahala for dead body".
THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. Where will you both end up? Groping in darkness till you land in a gutter.

No matter how Christian a person is, how many hours the person speaks in tongues if  you have no vision, you are going nowhere fast. It took me a while to get this. May God collapse years for me in Jesus name o.

If I catch my daughters at 22 with "I feel alright" boy ehn, the rod of correction will be her companion.

Women : have a vision and most importantly marry a man with a vision.

TEGA SAYS NAY!


You see the gender equality madness that's making the news is just an end time sign. It may sound appealing to a lot of women but I promise you it is altering Gods word and plan. 
The God that made man head of the house and woman help meet isn't foolish. I will not alter Gods word in the name of civilization. 
There is a saying in Yoruba that the person who someone is helping should carry the bulk of the load while the helper carries the lighter part.

I don't blame men much though, It started from Adam. If he had been with his wife when the serpent came to tempt her, he would have been able to guide her and protect her from the guile of the serpent but I'm sure he was on one social media platform or taking selfies and left the woman open to temptation. And she went ahead and made a decision that altered humanity.

Women are also a huge problem in bringing men up, you spoil your son rotten in the name of love forgetting that he will grow up and (reluctantly) leave the house and become a burden to the society and his wife. A boy is taught to play video games while a daughter is taught to be a home keeper. Be conscious that you are raising either a source of joy or source of sorrow.

I Oghenetega as a woman was called to be 'helpmeet'. If God desired for me to be a man, He will have created me so from beginning.(after all I have five brothers)
He is wiser than the wisest.

I don't care what the Senate says but I am a senator of the Heavenly House of Reps and I say NAY to gender equality.

With this point of mine, I hope I've been able to convince you and not confuse you that I am not for half baked gender equality.
Man take your place!

WHERE DOES YOUR LOYALTY LIE?

When I was younger my mum had this friend who I was so sure she loved to bits. I fell in love with them too because she had a daughter who was my age mate and our birthdays are just a day apart, I think we were even born in the same hospital. We also had siblings that their ages were close, we attended the same church etc.
Since I am a last child and my older ones were much older, i became a regular in their house so I could have a play mate.

Somehow monkey born one five die, our mothers fell out of love and of course it became awkward to continue to be friendly with them. I felt it wasn't fair, even as young as I was. I felt if they could not manage their friendship, the children should not be made to severe their friendship either. 
I can't really remember if my mum outright told us to stay clear but I remember sneaking to their house a few times, yet when I'm with my mum and see them I won't say hello.
I remember one day my brother caught me and told me my mum won't be happy if she found out I was doing that and so regardless of the fun I would miss I stopped out of loyalty and love for my mum.

I saw a post on Facebook and the girl was half naked and typing all sorts of obscenities and then she wrote Something about Jesus as well. 
Out of loyalty for God, ( let's say you dunno if you love Him self) how He sent His son to die on the cross for your sake, can you try not to play with the devil behind Gods back? E no easy but He is the help of the helpless. Ignore this false grace doctrine flying all over the place. 
God cannot behold iniquity.

The devil and your Father (God) are not friends DO NOT play with him.

MAN OF GOD

Was stuck waiting somewhere so I managed to pick up a book I've been struggling to read because of my hectic schedule in the last few weeks. Now the writer talks about Moses being a man of God and goes ahead to describe who a  man of God is.

He says a man of God is a man who comes from God,is chosen and sent by God. One who walks with God, lives in His fellowship and carries the mark of His presence. A man who lives for God and His will, whose whole being is ruled by the glory of God, who involuntarily and unceasingly leads men to think of God. A man in whose heart and life God has taken the right place as the All in All and who has only one desire, that God should have that place of preeminence throughout the world.
God has planned them to be the link between Himself and the world because through them we should see the life of God, His spirit and His power at work.

In your brief anger feats, your subtle pride, your silent greed , are men led to think of God?

So the next time someone refers to you or you think you are a man or woman of God, read through this and rate yasef. Elijah knew he carried these qualities and God validated him when fire came down from heaven when he declared if he be a 'man of God'.

Brother Gbenga abeg my name is simply Tega.
God bless my sister Yvonne for this amazing book.

TOBI NO LONGER COHEN..


So my niece got married earlier this month in Israel. You know those amazing things you hear and wish it would happen to you but then you push them away because the dream tall pass you? That was this trip for me. Me and my siblings went for the wedding. It was AMAZING! The New Testament came alive! I walked the path Jesus walked, where He was born and crucified? Me kwa? I went to the wailing wall to pray with my brothers? It was indeed a life time experience. God bless Mr and Mrs Cohen immensely, may God give you unforgettable blessings to your tenth generation.

This Tobi that used to follow my friends and I around in Kano, is now married! Tega don old. The next generation don start to marry.

God bless your union Tobi and Vadim, I wish you many years together filled with love and fruitfulness.
