Choices: The doorway to your destiny
The first time I remember I had to make a choice was when I was to write entrance examination (called JAMB in Nigeria) into the University.

Content or Comfortable?
Growing up, one of the values that was deeply ingrained in us was contentment. My mother taught us to be satisfied with what we had and never compare it with that of the next person. Being the last child who was born when others had borne the brunt of growing up in a low-class African …

The Sword of the Spirit
As we draw our study on “The whole armour of God” to a close, we are reminded to take up the word of God in our fight against the enemy. Remember that Jesus overcame temptation by the word of God. Without God’s infallible word, we are defenseless against the devils traps. When we speak God’s …
