The Language of Saints.
The Song of Martyrs
The anthem of Believers.
The sound of Spiritual Rhythm.
The message of Christ.

May we all be strong enough to walk this path with the love of Christ.

Erika Kirk , wife of Charlie Kirk released the sound that resonates in heaven when she said; I FORGIVE HIM AS CHRIST COMMANDS.

"I forgive him!
I forgive my husband's killer!"

That was a lot of courage!

The truth is, forgiveness is not a favour to the person who offended us, forgiveness is to us; the offended, a great offload of burdens and weight.

When you realise what height of love, and what depth of peace you'll enjoy when you forgive.

You will do it quickly, than later.

Jesus at the peak of pain, shame, scorn and mockery, made a prayer and said;
"father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing...!

One with such power and grace? He could have called down fire and burnt down those that nailed him to a cross, even at his innocence, but he never did that.

Forgiveness should be restored in churches and practiced as part of our Christian core and devotion.

Many people sit together in church, attend the same anointing and impartation service and receive holy communion and give offerings yet has a hardened heart towards their brothers and sisters in faith.

May God help us all, amen.

Scripture references: 1 Peter 2:24 (NIV)
Luke 23:24
Mathew 6:12

On Tuesday, 23rd September 2025, Prophet Rodney Howard-Browne's daily service entered day 1927.

He has been holding services everyday since COVID 19 lockdown in 2020.

He announced that just like the church in Acts of the Apostles, where they gathered daily in the temple, Revival Ministries in Tampa Bay, Florida, USA will hold services daily till the end of the world.

The daily services have witnessed salvation of souls, healings and diverse miracles.

He preaches almost everyday, except when he is out of the country.

For the Nigerians that speak carelessly and say that Nigerians are lazy and unproductive and go to church too much and that if Nigerians had good governance, people would not go to church, what will they say about people going to church daily in America for more than 5 years and counting

HOW I GOT MY SPIRITUAL POWER
I know you want to hear the number of hours I fasted.
I know you want to know the list of pastors who laid hands on me.
I know you want to copy my consecration and paste it into your life like a formula.

But listen, dear friend, IT IS BY GOD’S MERCY!

Spiritual power is not first about effort, but about mercy. Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:10, “By the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain.” Grace and mercy are the foundation upon which true power is built.

Yes, fasting and prayer is good, it is my regular.
Yes, consecration is important, I am sold out.
Yes, laying on of hands has its place.
But without the mercy of God, all these things are empty rituals.

Mercy is what takes a fisherman like Peter and makes him a healer of the sick.
Mercy is what takes a persecutor like Paul and makes him an apostle to nations.
Mercy is what takes an orphan like Esther and makes her a queen who delivers her people.

The power of God is not merchandise. It is not something you can “work for” by copying another person’s sacrifices. It is a gift of mercy to those who believe.

So, to you hungry for power:
1. Don’t chase formulas, chase Jesus.
2. Don’t trust in your discipline alone, lean on His mercy.
3. Don’t run after men, run after God.

When mercy finds you, even your weaknesses become a platform for His strength. Power without mercy will make you proud. Power by mercy will keep you humble.
And when power comes by mercy, you will never boast in yourself, you will always point men back to Jesus.😭

This is my prayer every day: “Father by your mercy clothe me with Your power 🔥

15 SHOCKING REALITIES IN MINISTRY
By Mfon Udoema

In the course of doing ministry over the years, I have encountered some shocking realities in ministry. By shocking reality, I mean things that others may not observe or believe about ministry but only the pastor involved.

The following are some shocking realities in ministry.

1. A large assemblage or gathering of people may not necessarily translate into large income for a ministry.

2. Before you start a ministry, so many people will urge you to start and even promise to give you money and become your members. However, when you finally start, the same people will be nowhere to be found. They won't become members neither will they give money.

3. A lot of people that are 'submitting' to you when they are small, may not necessarily be submitting to you in the true sense of the word but they're just using you to mark time until they grow and move on to that big name that was originally in their heart or mind.

4. In most instances, your family members and friends are the last to believe in you or become your members. Mfon. You can beg your siblings to come and become ministers in your ministry but they'll likely reject and prefer to be anything else in another ministry.

5. In most instances, your family members and friends that are in your ministry are likely to be the greatest rebels in your ministry.

6. People that were not close when they were in your ministry suddenly bond and become best of friends after they leave your ministry. They become 'friends' because they have a common purpose of attacking you and the ministry.

7. Most members in your Church have more than one pastor. You're likely not the only pastor or Prophet that they have.

8. A vast majority of members in your ministry belong to more than one ministry. Mfon. Quite a lot belong to a Church and a Prayer Fellowship or Ministry.

9. It is the people you help the most that will attack, betray, castigate, malign and vilify you the most.

10. When people leave the Church, they do everything within their power not to leave alone. They want to practically see the Church empty or close totally.

11. A large percentage of people don't speak well of a ministry and the leader when they leave inspite of all the good things they benefited from that ministry in the past.

12. A lot of people rendering service in Church are actually into eye service and lip service. They speak well of you in your presence, genuflect, bow, kneel or prostrate when greeting you but you'll be shocked to hear the things they say about you behind.

13. What people tolerate elsewhere without having any issue, they make a mountain out of a molehill in Church over same issue. Mfon. For instance, people don't feel bad signing a visitors form to see a doctor, lawyer or government official but get offended if you ask them to fill a visitors form (for administrative purpose) in order to see the pastor.

14. A lot of people want you to sacrifice your time, money, skills and resources in general for them but they're not ready to reciprocate same for you.

15. A lot of people are angry and upset when a Pastor begins to enjoy the good things of life like good houses, cars, jets, holidays, etc but they don't mind if any other person enjoys same.

Conclusively, as a minister, when you observe and discover the aforementioned, do the following:

- Encourage yourself in the Lord.
- Look up to the God that called you.
- Put your trust in God at all times and not in man.
- Prepare your heart for the worst at any time in ministry.
- Let no situation, occurrence or happenstance take you by surprise at any time.
- Build emotional capacity.
- Learn to forgive.
- Develop thick skin.

“YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE IS DYING BECAUSE YOUR S*X LIFE IS WILD”

Some of you are not under spiritual attack —
You’re just trying to mix holiness with horniness.

Let’s talk like men 👇🏽

1. YOU CAN’T PRAY FOR POWER AND WATCH P**N AT NIGHT

What exactly are you expecting?
Heaven to bless you while hell is clapping for you?

You pray for purity, then scroll Instagram to find temptation.
You beg God for destiny, then chase someone’s daughter to a hotel.
You cry in worship, but moan in fornication by evening.

That’s not warfare — that’s contradiction.
You’re not growing spiritually because you’re feeding your lust more than your soul.

2. S*XUAL SIN IS A SPIRITUAL LEAKAGE

It gradually drains your authority, boldness, and closeness with God.

That’s why after s*xual sin:

You feel distant from God
You become weak to pray
You don’t want to open your Bible
You avoid real men of God
You justify what you once preached against
You struggle to worship like before

It’s not punishment. It’s separation.
Sin weakens your spiritual voltage.
You can’t sin boldly and still pray boldly — it doesn’t work.

3. YOUR FIRE IS OFF BECAUSE YOUR ZIP IS OPEN

The Holy Spirit does not dwell in a temple that keeps inviting lust every weekend.

You can’t cry “Lord, use me” when you keep using your body to please strangers online.

Every time you watch p**n, you plant seeds of guilt.
Every time you ma******te, you fuel addiction.
Every time you sleep around, you dilute your spiritual oil.

Your anointing is not lost — it’s just buried under s*xual compromise.

4. YOU CAN’T CHASE GOD AND GIRLS/BOYS AT THE SAME TIME

One will leave.

It’s either:

You die to flesh and grow in Christ
OR
You live in pleasure and die spiritually

Let’s be real:
Most brothers don’t lack calling — they lack consecration.

You want prayer and p**n.
Fasting and flirting.
Spirit and s*x.
👉🏽 That’s a recipe for spiritual paralysis.

5. GOD IS NOT THE PROBLEM — YOUR LACK OF DISCIPLINE IS

You cry, “God why don’t I feel you like before?”
But last week, you were on TikTok drooling over half-naked girls.

You ask, “God, why is my fire low?”
But you haven’t gone 3 days without “releasing” into your palm.

This isn’t spiritual warfare. This is self-destruction.
You’re killing your own intimacy with God — and calling it a “dry season.”

6. SOME OF YOU ARE NOT WEAK — JUST SPIRITUALLY DISCONNECTED

Because your s*x life is out of control.

Result?

You’re losing your authority
Your dreams are filled with lust
You’re no longer bold in the Spirit
You battle guilt, shame, addiction
You no longer hear God clearly

And it all started with that small “just once” moment.

One p**n clip.
One ma********on session.
One sneaky hookup.

Now you’re hooked.
And your fire is gone.

7. FREEDOM IS NOT IN “MANAGING IT” — IT’S IN SURRENDER & DISCIPLINE

You don’t manage lust — you flee from it.
You don’t reduce p**n — you delete it.
You don’t play with s*x — you kill it's urge.

Practical steps:

Unfollow lust pages
Block sneaky links
Avoid the midnight texter
Cancel “Netflix and chill” traps
Confess struggles to brothers or mentors who’ll hold you accountable

It’s not shame — it’s survival.

-⚔️ FINAL WORD
Brother/Sister you’re not dry because God left you.
You’re dry because s*x has become a stronghold in your life.

But s*x doesn’t save — it steals.
Lust doesn’t build — it breaks.
P**n doesn’t relieve — it destroys.

👉🏽 Come back to fire.
👉🏽 Come back to purity.
👉🏽 Come back to spiritual sensitivity.

Your calling is too heavy to live with a careless zip.
Your family, your ministry, your purpose — depends on this war.

Win it.
The garment of holiness is never old fashioned!

8 LESSONS I HAVE LEARNED FROM THE FRIENDSHIP OF THESE NIGERIAN FATHERS OF FAITH

A friend shows his friendship at all times — it is for adversity that [such] a brother is born.
Proverbs 17:17 CJB

There are “friends” who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24 NLT

These Elders have been close friends for over 40 years and counting.
In January, they gathered together for their friend Rev. Dr. Uma Ukpai when he turned 80 and now in September, they have gathered again for their friend Bishop Mike Okonkwo at 80.

I have learned the following lessons:

1. They love themselves genuinely.
You cannot fake love for between 40-50 years.

2. They are not in competition with themselves.
They are relating genuinely without any form of competition. Mfon
Competition leads to bitterness, envy, strife, mudslinging and wickedness.

3. They have not allowed doctrinal differences to affect their friendship.
One of the fathers here has in the last couple of years embraced a doctrinal position from what the others embrace but this has not affected the genuine friendship and relationship that exists between them.

4. They don't allow any issue to come in between them.
One of the fathers here had one of his Frontline sons leave him to go and embrace his friend as his new father or mentor. Everything was handled and managed genuinely and was not allowed to generate bad blood or ill will.

5. They encourage each other.
During the 80th birthday celebration of Papa Uma Ukpai, Baba Adeboye said something profound. He said that when he lost his son, it was Papa Uma that gave him some strong words of encouragement, especially using his own experience of losing several children in one day.

6. They are always there for each other.
This friendship has taught me that nobody is too busy for someone that he loves.
This has been expressed by the fact that these fathers are always present in the milestone events of each other, not minding who is chosen to preach or not.

7. They genuinely believe in each other.
These fathers genuinely believe in themselves.
All of them have virtually hosted themselves.
They have virtually all preached for each other.
Each person believes in the grace and uniqueness of their friend.

8. They respect seniority of physical age among themselves.
I have observed that even though they all relate and operate as friends, they all respect and revere Baba Adeboye specially because he is slightly older than them.
Papa Uma Ukpai invited Baba Adeboye to be the guest speaker in his 80th birthday and Big Daddy Mike Okonkwo has also repeated same.
I have equally seen a video of Papa Ayo prostrating to greet Baba Adeboye.

Conclusively, to have this kind of friendship, the following are important and sacrosanct:

1. Everyone in the group must be genuinely born again and God fearing.
2. Everyone in the group must share the same values.
You cannot last long in a group when you all have different value systems.
3. Everyone in the group must be selfless and sacrificial.
You will not lost long in friendship if you are stingy, tight fi**ed, selfish, self-centered and self absorbed.
4. Everybody in the group must be willing to forgive and resolve issues quickly.
If you cannot easily forgive and you are easily offended, you will not last long in friendship.

Good friends start as friends but end up as brothers.

Who are you friends?
Where are your friends?
How long can you last in friendship?

2 are better than 1.
It is not good for a man to be alone.
Woe unto him that is alone when he falls.
