Topic: JESUS CHRIST THE ONLY SAVIOUR
Text: Read: 2 Corinthians 4:3-6
Daily Bible Study: Lev. 8-9; Matt. 25

“For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord” (2 Cor. 4:5).

God's truth is always attacked by the enemies of righteousness. Many modify the message of Christ and water down the truth of the Gospel to appease and swell their congregations. These false messages come from Satan, the god of this world. He continues to deceive and blinds the spiritual eye of many to the truth of God’s Word. Many actually prefer to hear these lies because the truth is too hard for them to accept.

While many seek to modify the true Gospel, we must preach Christ, who loves us so much that He chose to die a criminal's death on the cross in order to pay for our sins and to set us free.
Christ's payment for our sins is the only source of our salvation. We must preach Christ, who healed the sick, raised the dead, made the lame to walk, cast out demons and set the captives free. There is no higher knowledge that can help us connect with God – we come to God through Christ and Christ alone.
Our God is a loving Father, but He will not bend His Truth to make people comfortable in their sins. As believers, it is crucial for us to know the truth, be firmly grounded in it, and stand for Christ in a world of compromise. Pray to God to help you recognize when you encounter heresies and to avoid them. Ask God for the grace to speak the truth always and boldly testify of His greatness to all mankind.

Prayer: Merciful God, help me not to be fooled by the deceptions of this world. Please strengthen me in Your Word and give me the courage to speak the truth always. 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.
