    5 Reasons You Shouldn’t Have Nudes on Your Phone.

    To start with, a reasonable person will never have his/her nudes or any other person’s, on their devices, let alone sending them to someone. Let alone that such a reasonable person is a Christian.

    Number one, no man who loves you will ask for nudes.


    Call him any names – husband, boyfriend, teacher, pastor, et cetera. No man who claims he loves you will demand such.

    If he wants to see your nakedness, let him go and pay your bride price and then come home to behold the real thing.

    Secondly, nothing is safe on your phone. It could be hacked, stolen, lost, or found in the hands of despicable ones. Imagine you, a so-called Queen or King, dancing nakedly in the market square. God forbids.

    Thirdly, some sins and mistakes have the potential to permanently destroy your destiny and God’s plan for your life. One of such is the subject matter. See, if you are NFA (No future ambition), you can register on OnlyFans and blow away your destiny, but if you know for sure you have something to offer your generation, don’t dare.

    Another reason is that the internet never forgets. The Internet never forgives. Why create shame and reproach for your generation?

    And lastly, Christians don’t have nudes on their phones.

    Christians don’t request nudes.

    Christians don’t send nudes.

    For we have been redeemed at a price,  so we have to glorify our bodies with Christ.

  • Happy Resumption

    Happy Resumption

    Most States in Nigeria resumed academic work for Primary and Secondary Schools today, kick-starting the last lap of the 2024/25 academic session.

    This term is crucial because out of many things, this is the term will highest numbers of holidays, end of the session party, and the determinant of whether a student will move from the present class to the next higher one.

    With that in mind, I am enjoying all dear parents being supportive as always, not slothful in providing for your wards’ academic welfare

    Also not to make them angry so that they will not be psychologically disturbed.

    Lastly, I pray the kids are protected in Jesus’ name.

    No evils will befall them in Jesus name and knowledge, wisdom and understanding will be their portion in Jesus’ name.

    Once again, happy Resumption.

  • Witness 5: The Genealogies of Jesus

    My family tree goes like this, Samuel Adéyemí, the son of Joel Adetunji, the son of Samuel Adetutu, the son of David Adeleke, the son of Awodiwin…the son of Adam, the son of God. Between Adam and me, there are 11,150,372,599,265,311,570,767,859,136,324,180,752,990,207 fathers spanning 142 generations (I knew you didn’t read the numbers 😀😀😀).

    However, the Christmas story is filled with awe-inspiring moments, from angelic announcements to shepherds worshiping under starlit skies. But hidden within the pages of Scripture is a witness often overlooked: the genealogies of Jesus (Matthew 1:1-17; Luke 3:23-38).

    These lists of names might seem mundane at first glance, but they reveal God’s masterful plan woven through generations. The list isn’t just a showcase of saints; it includes flawed individuals like Rahab, a former prostitute, and King David, who sinned yet repented. Each name is a testament to God’s grace and His ability to use imperfect people for His perfect purpose. You are not  damaged beyond God using you.

    Matthew begins with these words: “The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham” (Matthew 1:1). This genealogy highlights Jesus’ connection to God’s covenant with Israel, showing how God kept His promise to bless all nations through Abraham’s lineage (Genesis 12:3). God’s promise is sacrosanct.

    Luke’s genealogy takes a broader view: “…the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God” (Luke 3:38). By tracing Jesus back to Adam, Luke emphasizes His role as the Savior of all humanity, reminding us that His mission extends beyond cultural and national boundaries. This is a proof whether on earth here on the heavens above, Jesus is Lord and Saviour.

    These genealogies serve as a profound witness to God’s faithfulness. Through centuries of waiting, wars, and exile, God’s promise remained unbroken. They also remind us that Christmas is about more than a single moment; it’s the culmination of a story that began long before Bethlehem.

    This yuletide, let’s pause to reflect on the rich heritage behind the manger. Jesus’ family tree is a story of redemption, hope, and divine promise—an eternal witness to the greatest story ever told.

  • Witness 4 – The Creation.

    Welcome to day 5 of Annual Blogmas. The yearly hype for Christmas.

    The theme of the year is Witnesses of Christmas.

    Today’s witnesses are the creations namely the animals (donkeys and sheep) and the stars.

    …and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. Luke 2:7 (NIV)

    The above statement was said by the angels to the shepherds in field tending their sheep and they are led to Jesus’ maternity ward – a manger – donkey resting place; what a befitting maternity ward for a prince!

    But the lesson for us there is one, we are without excuse. We can’t deny  hearing about the birth of Jesus. If we want, the sheep will testify against us.

    Two, we must humble ourselves under the mighty hand of Yahweh and in due He will lift us up. 

    The second creation that witness Jesus’ birth are the stars.

    …and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.” Mat 2:2 (NIV)

    The maggi followed the star to get to Jesus where they worshipped and give him gifts.

    The star surrounded itself to be PR for Christmas.

    Where the bleating and neighing of sheep and donkey can’t reached, the ray of star can.

    Are you available for Master’s uses?

    How many have you directed to Christ by your conducts, speech, dressing, and personal dealings with individual?

    See you tomorrow

  • Witness 3 – Moses

    Witness 3 – Moses


    Moses, the greatest prophet of The Old Testament, not only led the Israelites through the Exodus but also, unknowingly, foretold the coming of Jesus Christ through the help of the Holy Spirit. In today’s post, we delve into the prophetic words of Moses and extract valuable lessons for our understanding of Christ’s birth.


    Hidden within the pages of the Pentateuch, Moses’ prophecy in Deuteronomy 18:15 sheds light on the arrival of a future Prophet: “The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen.”


    Furthermore, this prophecy takes on a profound meaning when we consider the parallels between Moses and Jesus. Both were chosen leaders, mediators of covenants, and brought messages from God. Moses foreshadowed the ultimate Prophet, Jesus Christ, whose birth fulfilled the promise of a divine Messenger

    Now these are some lessons:
    1. Divine Continuity:
    Moses’ prophecy underscores the continuity of God’s plan throughout history. That which God has started with you, He will not stop with but continue with your offsprings

    2. Promise Fulfilled in Christ:
    The fulfillment of Moses’ prophecy in the birth of Jesus emphasizes God’s faithfulness to His promises. It teaches us to trust in God’s timing and to recognize His hand working across generations.

    3. Jesus as the Ultimate Mediator:
    Both Moses and Jesus served as mediators between God and His people. Moses mediated the Old Covenant, while Jesus established the New Covenant through His birth, life, and sacrificial death.

    4. Listening to the Divine Message:
    Moses instructed the Israelites to listen to the future Prophet. As Christians, we are called to heed the teachings of Jesus, recognizing Him as the ultimate authority in matters of faith and salvation.

    5. Prophetic Harmony in Scripture:
    Moses’ prophecy highlights the harmonious nature of God’s revelation in the Bible. Exploring connections between Old Testament prophecies and their New Testament fulfillment deepens our understanding of God’s redemptive plan. That’s God can be wholly trusted to fulfill His words

    Finally as, Moses, a humble leader chosen by God, unknowingly unveiled a prophetic glimpse into the birth of Jesus Christ. We should remember that God did not forget you. At the right time, what He has promised, He will fulfill it.

    Thanks for reading, sharing, and commenting.

  • Witness 2 – Holy Spirit

    Witness 2 – Holy Spirit

    The story of the birth of Jesus Christ is a cornerstone of Christian faith, intricately woven with the divine presence of the Holy Spirit. As we reflect on this sacred event, there are profound lessons for Christians to draw inspiration from.

    1. Divine Intervention:

    The conception of Jesus was not a result of human endeavor alone, but a miraculous intervention by the Holy Spirit. This emphasizes the importance of surrendering to divine guidance in our lives, trusting that God’s plans surpass our understanding.

    Bible Verse: “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God.” – Luke 1:35

    2. Humility and Obedience:

    Mary’s humble acceptance of the angel Gabriel’s message showcases the virtue of humility and obedience. As Christians, we are called to emulate this spirit of submission to God’s will, even when it might seem beyond our comprehension.

    Bible Verse: “And Mary said, ‘Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.’” – Luke 1:38

    3. Embracing the Unexpected:

    Mary and Joseph faced unexpected circumstances, yet they embraced their roles in God’s plan. This teaches Christians to remain open to unexpected turns in life, trusting that God can use even the most challenging situations for His purpose.

    Bible Verse: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.” – Isaiah 55:8

    4. Guidance in Times of Uncertainty:

    The Holy Spirit guided Joseph in a dream, providing clarity in a time of uncertainty. This serves as a reminder for Christians to seek spiritual discernment and trust the guidance of the Holy Spirit during challenging moments in our own lives.

    Bible Verse: “But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, ‘Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.’” – Matthew 1:20

    5. Joyful Witness:

    The arrival of Jesus brought joy to the world. Christians are called to be witnesses of this joy, sharing the transformative power of Christ’s love with others and radiating positivity in a world that often yearns for hope.

    Bible Verse: “And the angel said to them, ‘Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.’” – Luke 2:10

    6. God With Us:

    The name “Emmanuel,” meaning “God with us,” encapsulates the essence of Christ’s birth. This truth remains a source of comfort for Christians, reminding us that God is present in every aspect of our lives, offering solace in times of joy and trials.

    Bible Verse: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel (which means, God with us).” – Matthew 1:23

    In conclusion, the story of the Holy Spirit’s role in the birth of Jesus Christ is a testament to the divine plan of redemption. As Christians, let us draw inspiration from the humility, obedience, and trust exemplified by Mary and Joseph, while keeping in mind the comforting words of scripture that guide our faith journey. May the lessons from this sacred narrative deepen our relationship with the Holy Spirit and inspire us to live out the teachings of Christ in our daily lives.

  • Witness 1 – YHWN.

    Witness 1 – YHWN.

    Good day. Welcome to the 2nd day of 2024 Blogmas. Come along with me for the next 24 days to see various persons and personalities who bear witness to the trueness of Christmas.

    The first witness is God Himself. The Yahweh ( YHWN). The I Am. The Holy One of Israel.

    Shortly after, Adam and Eve partook in the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and God is a just God pronounced His judgment on all disobedient parties, He declared that there will be Christmas later in the history of the world that will foreshadow the victory of mankind over the old serpent by saying:

    I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel.
    Genesis 3:15 HCSB

    Moreover, the testimony of the Almighty did not end there. He nonetheless declare later in the course of history that Christmas will happen by declaring openly that ‘…The virgin will conceive, have a son, and name him Immanuel.’
    (Isaiah 7:14 HCSB)

    Furthermore, Yahweh didn’t just promise Christmas. He fulfilled His promise in the pages of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Hallelujah!

    The lesson for us: even though you fumbled, fall into sin severally after multiple prayers of forgiveness or think you have over-sin beyond the mercy of God, the first Witness declares, you have no since beyond My grace to save, forgive, transform, rescue and declare holy.

    Secondly, none of God’s promise will go unfulfilled. None. He promises Christmas and He delivers. Whatsoever, Yahweh promises you and me, be rest assured that He will make it come to fruition.

    Put your trust in Him. He delivers.

    See you tomorrow for witness 2.

  • How being Kyle XY Father deepen My faith.

    Some bible verse won’t make much sense to you till you are in the heat of it – practicing it.

    One of such verse is Jesus’ saying ‘… Except you become like one of these children, you cannot entered the kingdom of God.’

    Now, being a father to Kyle XY makes me fully grasp the importance of that saying.

    First, kids copy-cat a lot. Anything his mum and I do, he will definitely want to repeat it.

    Put a bottle on a cabinet, he will try to remove it and repeat the process.

    Sweep a portion of the kitchen, he will go and take the broom and want to do his.

    He just want to do what we do.

    This taught me a vital lesson to dutifully follow in Christ’s footsteps as my boy does with us.

    Moreover, on the flip side, Kyle XY knows the next step after a particular house chore.

    Once, his mum brings out broom, he will go for the dustpan.

    If it’s pot, he goes for pot.

    Water on the floor. Dragging mopping stick with us is the next thing.

    Talk about being in tune with God is doing and saying per season. That’s

    The third way my faith was better for it because I’m a father is the aspect of total trust.

    When we are with him, he will playfully move to the bed edge wanting to jump but when he is alone, he won’t dare.  Why? Because he knows for a fact that we won’t let him hurt himself.

    He may want to play with electrical socket but we won’t allow that.

    He may want to do hurting things to himself but he trusts us not to leave him to them.

    I may want to self ruin but I trust my God. He won’t allow that.

    Furthermore, if my boy needs anything, his first ask is from us, his parents. Talk about dependence because we are duty bound to provide for his needs.

    Brother and sister, God is more than enough to be depended on because he cares for you more than we can care for our son.

    Another one is love of discipline. If he was disciplined some hours ago, that does mean he won’t come to ask for his needs or play with us as his parents.

    No sulking. No disownment. No unforgiveness. Nothing comes in between our relationship because of corrections. And we apologized to our 1½ years old son if we are in the wrong.

    No wonder, Bible says, ‘ My son, do not reject your Father’s correction. For the son the Father loves, He disciplines,’ and ‘Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ…’

     As my son is eternally assured of my love so I am of, of our Heavenly Father.

    Lastly, that Bible’s portion that says, ‘worry not.’ The only category obeying that command are kids.

    They are less concerned with US elections, inflation, prices of prescription drugs, immigration, etc. That’s our worries.

    My boy knows I will take care of him. So, zero worries.

    I now leave God to do the worries for me while I enjoy his cares.

    Isn’t all these attributes God is expecting from a Heaven seeker?

    Lastly, How has fatherhood/motherhood better your faith?

  • Short or Long Courtship?



    Scene 1: After two months of marriage, these new couples are filing for divorce. No fight. No new bad discovery. No irreconcilable difference but genotype incompatibility.

    Something that ₦2500 worth of test can prevent.

    If you probed further, they courted for 3 years and above.

    Scene 2: I met my wife for the first time ever on 7th May, asked her out and got Yes same day. Picked wedding date 24 hours after, and got married 3 months minus 3 days after.

    By the end of week 1 of our courtship, all major discussion has been settled. Today, We are in blissful marriage by the grace of God to His glory alone.

    Dear, I will never advised you to do as I do but I can assure you that there’s nothing you want to know in a potential partner that you can’t know between 3 – 6 months or at max, 1 year.

    In fact, dear sister, a man know if you are wife worthy to him from the first day of meeting you.

    Instead of wasting your time, doing, ‘have you eaten,’ ‘how was your day,’ everyday, ask intentional questions.

    First hour of asking out, genotype issue should be already a settled affair.

    By week 4, belief system of each partner should be known so that edgy areas can be smoothened on time. Make e no shock you that, though your husband is a Baptist, he doesn’t believe in tithing first month in marriage.



    By third month of your relationship, issues like numbers of kid, where to  live after wedding, in-laws, etc., should be agreed on already.

    No dey think because you grow up in the same area, denomination, you go dey think alike for marriage.

    Short or long courtship ❌❌

    Intentional Courtship ✅✅

    6 – 20 months of intentional Courtship is okay.

    Advantage is that no one time and resources are wasted and premarital sex can be avoided.

    Now, away from that, Our Evangelism Outreach Pastor is Pastor K. Adegoke. He is a passionate MoG who love God’s people differently and He is happily and intentionally married.

    Pray for the fresh infilling of Holy Spirit on him and pray along with him for outpouring of miracles and power during the program.

    I hope to eat your wedding jollof rice before the year ends.
