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.

Let’s start today’s episode of #ReviveYourRelationshipChallenge with Jesus’ word that miracles cannot happen except by fasting and prayer.
Numerous instances abound in the word of God of those who prayed either as individuals or as a couple.
Abraham and Sarah prayed. Manoah and his wife prayed for Samson. Isaac and Rebecca also prayed over their childlessness. Elkanah and Hannah prayed too and God answered them.
Also, I can boldly say this, it’s a principle I have practised and established to be true in my family and will uphold jealously.
Praying together as a couples and praying individually for your spouse is one of the most powerful weapons you have again divorce and for building intimacy in your marriage

In addition to bible reading and studying, pray as a family, for God has promised us that two will chase ten thousand because of this assurance that everything we asked confidently according to His will in Jesus name, He will do it.
Now, how do we pray? We pray in Jesus’ name. What do we pray about? Anything and everything – family, careers, children, mental health, safety, brothers and sisters, in-laws, church, MoGs and WoGs, Missionaries, political leaders, traditional leaders, neighbours, colleagues, enemies, policymakers, etc. When should pray? Anytime.
Furthermore, Jesus says ‘where two or more people in My name, I will be there ‘ and ‘whatsoever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven and whatsoever you bind on earth will be bind in heaven.
Finally, I want to motivate us with this hymn by W. W. Williams titled Sweet Hours of Prayer :
1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! that calls me from a world of care, and bids me at my Father's throne make all my wants and wishes known. In seasons of distress and grief, my soul has often found relief, and oft escaped the tempter's snare by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! the joys I feel, the bliss I share of those whose anxious spirits burn with strong desires for thy return! With such I hasten to the place where God my Savior shows his face, and gladly take my station there, and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! thy wings shall my petition bear to him whose truth and faithfulness engage the waiting soul to bless. And since he bids me seek his face, believe his word, and trust his grace, I’ll cast on him my every care, and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
P.S: Why can’t you pick together to pray? 5 minutes can do wonders.
