Good morning Beloved Brethren,
Date: TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2018
Topic: GOING FORWARD
Text: Read: Hebrews 13:6
Daily Bible Study: Ex. 9-10; Ps. 15

“So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me” (Heb. 13:6).

Do you find yourself stuck and unable to move forward with God's vision? You are not alone. When Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, they faced the same apprehension as we do today. On reaching the Red Sea, they faced mountainous obstacles; a vast sea in front and a powerful Egyptian army behind (Ex. 14). The people cried out in fear and anguish against Moses and wanted to turn back and remain in the past life of slavery that they were used to. But Moses, filled with hope and faith declared: “The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace” (Ex. 14:14).
God wanted them to move forward into a better future, hence He told Moses to speak unto the children of Israel to go forward (Ex. 14:15). God helped His people supernaturally by parting the Red Sea.

 Sometimes we want to turn back in fear because of the great obstacle we see ahead. Other times we may want to keep the status quo and wait for God to act for us. But God wants us to move forward with the vision He has given us. He will always be there to give His guidance, provision, and strength, but first we must be willing to step out in faith and follow His plan.
Going forward is not always simple. You will face disappointments, setbacks, oppositions and hindrances. But no matter what you face, God will see His vision for your life accomplished as long as you remain a willing instrument for Him to use.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, please remove fears from me and give me the courage to move forward with the vision You've given me. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

POLITICS (PLEASE POST YOUR OPINION) Donald Trump will tonight hand out his inaugural ‘fake news awards’ to the media outlets that have most angered him during his first year as President. The Commander in Chief announced the bizarre ceremony in a tweet late Tuesday, writing: ‘I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. ‘Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!’ President Trump has been most vociferous in attacking CNN for its supposed ‘fake news’, with the network widely expected to win the majority of gongs. The awards are likely to be ‘handed out’ in a series of scathing tweets from Mr Trump, and it is unclear whether he will present winners with any sort of booby prize. He popularized the term fake news during his White House run, using it to attack reports whose facts he disputes. But Trump’s critics claim it is an easy way of shouting down va...
JANUARY 14, 2019 Left home around 6am and picked up Isaac at Itamaga. Left for Benin through Ijebu Ode. Arrived Benin around 10.30am. Very smooth drive. All marketing activities today went so well. Checked into the hotel with Isaac around 5.30pm. Worked on my report for today and caught up on my blog.
FEBRUARY 01, 2019 Thank God its Friday! Tate joined me in my car as I drove to work. I dropped him off at 7up bus stop, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. He was heading for his company headquarters at Ajao Estate. I got to work early enough. Not very comfortable because I did not exactly carry out my duties properly yesterday. I eventually defended my activities in the meeting presided by the MD. I left with Dare in our separate cars for Iyare Transport Company to Waybill Oxide pigments heading for Benin to Golden Julirose. Joined the the brethren who visited the Old People's Home at the location. We sang and prayed with the old people and rounded up at 6pm. I left with Tobi to pick up Tate at Itamaga and drop off Tobi at her residence in Itamaga. Drove home with Tate. Hung about at B-Lounge with Tate later in the night. Took 2 bottles of beer and a plate of pepper soup each. Bought a plate of pepper soup as 'take away' for Ify.
