Pastor E.A Adeboye to pray for Buhari, Jonathan in Abuja Tomorrow

President Goodluck Jonathan and his successor-in-waiting, Muhammadu Buhari, are likely to meet the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Abuja tomorrow, during which the man of God will pray for two of them.
The event is the annual “Day out with God of Daddy G.O.”, which is taking place at the International Conference Centre, Abuja at 5pm on Sunday and to be attended by other top-ranking Nigerian political, business and religious leaders.
The event, according to the organisers, is meant to provide an avenue for Adeboye to pray for outgoing President Jonathan and the President-elect, Buhari, and his new administration, which is coming at a time of great socio-economic challenges that require the prayers and support of all Nigerians to succeed.
Chairman of the Planning Committee and Provincial Pastor of RCCG FCT 9, Pastor Akinremi Bolaji, confirmed that both leaders as well as the Vice President-elect, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, had been invited to the event and that there was indication they would attend.
“This year’s edition of the Day Out with God of Daddy G.O. is another opportunity for Pastor Adeboye to prophesy into the lives of Nigerians and provide an opportunity for the outgoing and the incoming one to be prayed for by the man of God,” Bolaji said.
Other top politicians expected at the event, are the Governor-elect of Benue, Dr. Samuel Ortom, who is a deacon in RCCG, Senator Binta Garba from Adamawa State, Senator Remi Tinubu and the Zonal Pastor of FCT 9 , Kehinde Agboola, who has just been elected into the House of Representatives.
Pastor Adeboye has asked Nigerians to support Buhari with unceasing prayers so as to be able to surmount the huge challenges that lie ahead of his government.
Adeboye will be flying into Abuja from Jos, the Plateau State capital, where he has been holding Workers and Ministers conference over the weekend.

What's Stopping You? Fear of Success! 

The Word For Today

'...Let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.' Psalm 35:27 NKJV

Fear of success is characterised by these six behaviours; see if you have any of them: 
(1) Procrastinating. 
(2) Underperforming. 
(3)Focusing on those who reject you rather than those who accept you. 
(4) Allowing yourself to be side-tracked by so many insignificant things that you never get focused on the main thing. 
(5) Talking about what you plan to do 'someday'. 
(6) Feeling others are worthy of success but not you.

Question: Are you serving the Lord? Then you qualify for success! '...Let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.' Yes, God will help you when you are in need. But He also wants you to succeed so that you can begin to meet the needs of others. God told Abraham two things. First, He promised to bless him greatly. Second, He promised to make him a great blessing to others (Genesis 12:2). And it happened! 

Solomon writes, '...money answers everything.' (Ecclesiastes 10:19 NKJV) What did he mean? Money builds schools, churches and hospitals. It eradicates poverty and illiteracy. It finances research that cures life-threatening illnesses. But some of us are so focused on Heaven's streets of gold that we no longer see earth's streets filled with suffering and unmet needs. 

Understand this: God will reward you based on your service to others. '...the King will answer and say to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, in as much as you did it to one of the least of these...you did it to Me."' (Matthew 25:40 NKJV) That should be your greatest motivation for wanting to succeed.

The Dream After 7

There lived 2 strangers in a house just down the street in a well decorated high brow Estate
They are called strangers because they are "love-lost" couples
These two got married about 7yrs ago, and it was clearly obvious the love was...
...the love in their eyes as they danced out of the reception was real

Though the man struggled with some dance steps, Lara did justice to the digging as she was all over switching from galala to azonto then makosa before shoki

One can almost be decieved by the rays of affection, beauty of smiles on the faces and splendor of the wedding...

The extravagance of the honeymoon of both George and Lara cannot go unemphasized as Lara's father singlehandedly sponsored their trip to the Bahamas

Down the history lane laid sweet stories but not now. These love birds are now strangers living together. Mama Chima and her family are always the culprit of the quarrels of these two strangers. The noise and fights gives Mama Chima's family no peace as they always try to play the peace makers

The Doctor confirmed Lara to be fertile and George has refused to believe he has "issue". 7 years of persistent pleading to God for child. 7 years, George has search for a breakthrough. 7 years, barrenness has torn the family apart. Until...

4 weeks ago,Lara, just when she had lost hope met her former course mate from the same university she studied Accounting. Since she had nothing to loose again,she agreed to follow her friend for a prayer vigil. With little faith in her heart, she prayed and left. Lara had a difficult time trying to convince George for another check up. 

As puzzled as the doctor was, with previous knowledge of their predicament, he read out the result of the test conducted;
"Madam, you are four weeks pregnant" 
This vision-message is a witness
    pointing to what’s coming.
It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait!
    And it doesn’t lie.
If it seems slow in coming, wait.
    It’s on its way. It will come right on time. (Hab 2:3)
