He Proposed 5 Days After Meeting Her and She Said Yes… and they are married

When love happens. On the the 9th of May 2016, they were complete strangers, fast forward to the 15th of May, 2016, they got engaged and on the 9th of September, 2017, they got married.

Read the interesting love story below as narrated by the bride…

“Yes, I recently married my Best friend. But much more than excitement, what I’ve been taught during this (what felt like an eternity of single) season is that God is INTENTIONAL about every single detail in our lives. If we’re connected and in alignment with what HE is doing, we won’t miss His voice when He speaks.

God brought this amazing human into my life when I wasn’t even ready. I could have missed it, I almost didn’t see it. It was too fast and he was too real to be true. Thankfully, when I met him, I recognised him-Spirit to Spirit.

It only took me a few hours from the airport departure lounge to the plane to decide I wanted us to be friends. In three days I knew deep in my heart, you’re here to stay. After five days you decided you wanted more than friendship. Was I scared? Absolutely!

You don’t meet some stranger and in five days agree to marry them but you were sure it was me you’ve been actively searching for. Beyond possessing every single thing on my list for a choice of a spouse, you came with extras I knew ONLY my Father could give me.

I said “if we’re doing this, know that we’re going to have to wait until marriage” you said “lets raise the bar, we’re not going to kiss before marriage”. Your response that day in Kigali was a confirmation that you just had to be him.

I’m grateful for a man like you, Seun You’re truly the Father’s Son. Your love for God is so evident in ALL you do. You challenged me to see the world in the way that I never did; you make me laugh and love with abandon and remind me every single day to dream bigger, to work harder, to open my heart to the possibilities of this beautiful life. I never realized that I could love anyone as much as I love you”

The Groom has this to say: 
When I met you, I thought to myself “what an amazing woman”. It didn’t take me long to know I wanted you. But it was too soon, too fast and even though I’m normally reserved, I couldn’t resist your depth and great smile. Your love for God was so evident even a blind person could feel it. I saw in you after a few days EVERYTHING I prayed for (and more).

Beyond being able to talk to you for hours and not get tired, you speak with so much wisdom. I’m glad I made the decision to pursue you immediately because when you find the right person, making a decision is never difficult. You’re beautiful, selfless and your heart is so so kind. The definition of a Proverbs 31 Woman.

The Father’s Daughter. I’m grateful to God for giving you to me as a wife and I’m blessed to be called your husband. I know this for sure, when God made you, He was definitely thinking about me. ….My Queen, My Light, My Woman.

I was looking for a wife. Not a fling, not a situationship, not a friend with benefit- a wife. I wasn’t just looking for a beautiful face, a nice body or to be sexually enticed. The Word of God is clear ” He who finds a wife, finds a good thing” I’ve found my own “good thing” and obtained favour from the Lord.

You, baby, didn’t have to rub me on the shoulder to get my attention. I acknowledged you’re a treasure, the wife I was searching for immediately I set eyes on you. I’m blessed to call you my wife.

Nothing can be greater than being given a daughter of the King.

The bride had this to say:  
Dear single Christian woman, this is from my heart to yours.

“WAIT FOR GOD’S BEST FOR YOU.” Get a piece of paper and search through the Bible and list qualities of a godly man. Watch and listen to sermons about Biblical manhood and what it looks like then list those out too. Look into your own life & heart.

See your shortcomings list them out and pray for a man who is strong in those areas. Think on your passions, purpose and desires for future, list and pray for a man who wants to live that type of life with you. Decide, then list your VALUES and convictions.

And adds thus: 
In today’s s*x-crazed and “purity is lame” culture, we’re quick to celebrate the men who only take their women to exotic restaurants, buy them fancy cars, take them on expensive vacations, put it up on social media but not honour them by protecting their purity. We’re quick to “hail” and repost them with hashtags like #Husbandgoals #RelationshipGoals.

As Christains, we are called to be people of purity, to honour God in the use of our bodies. However, pursuing purity is one of the hardest things Christians face in dating relationship or courtship and men who honour their women are hardly celebrated.

We all agree, it is really hard for two young, hormone-filled people who are intensely attracted to each other to keep their hands off each other. That is why celebrating men who honour their women and their God is very important.

I said all that to say this; celebrate the men who whether it makes sense to our culture or to their bodies to reserve sex for marriage or not, still honour their God and their women to wait until marriage.

Celebrate the single men who lead their women closer to God rather than their bedrooms. Celebrate the single men who are not sitting on the fence, arguing if kissing before marriage is right or wrong and looking for scriptures to justify it but simply focused on serving their God and loving their women in the way of the Lord.

If you’re reading and wondering, “it’s difficult, I can’t do this” remember this scripture: “But He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for MY strength is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9 ESV).

Be encouraged because it is possible and you can do it!

I celebrate you Seun. You’re a testimony that extraordinary men do exist.

We Use Prostitutes to Get Information about Police, Victims – Armed Robber

A 27-year-old commercial bus driver based in Benue State, Monday Otupa has confessed that he took to robbery and car snatching to enable him get enough money fast, to go back to school. 

Otupa and three others – Joseph Oriyan, 27, Basil Fabian 39 and Mike Onazi, 34 – were tracked and arrested by the operatives of the Inspector General of Police Intelligence Response Team (IGP IRT) for armed robbery and car snatching in different parts of Nigeria.

The IRT operatives also recovered the suspects’ locally made gun that uses Ak47 ammunition among other dangerous weapons they used during their operations.

According to police sources, some of the suspects are from Benue State and they have no residential house in Lagos and Abuja. When they operate in Abuja and Lagos, they would take the snatched cars to Port Harcourt to sell. At times, they would take their stolen posh cars to Enugu or Benue State.

Among the weapons recovered from them are one Berreta pistol, one locally made pistol that uses 7.61mm ammunition.

The four-man gang has members in Lagos, Enugu, Benue and Port Harcourt. When they want to operate in Lagos they call their members in Lagos to prepare that they were coming to rob in Lagos. If they want to rob in Enugu they need not use members in other states.

They used to operate in a Commando way and each member has specific role to play. They have mechanic, rewire, painter, and a member whose role is to perfect customs papers, vehicle number plates and good receivers, the police source said.

However, the four gang members met their waterloo when they robbed a man of his Mercedes 300 at gun point and injured his wife. The matter was reported to the Inspector General of Police IGP Ibrahim Idris, who immediately ordered the operatives of IRT led by a Deputy Superintendent of Police( DSP), Phillip Rieninwa to fish out the robbers for arrest and prosecution.

First to be picked was one Mike Onazi, whose arrest led to the arrest of Monday and others. Though their gang leader Alfred Adayi is still at large, any member of the gang is an expert in car driving and can lead the gang in any of their operations.

Innocent buyers address them as car dealers without car shops, yet they claimed to be buying the cars from Cotonou and other West African countries and abroad.

One of the gang members named Joseph (Joe) had been arrested more than three times, charged to court and remanded in prison and, at times convicted, yet, he always secure freedom to join his members to rob and snatch cars.

Fabian who claimed to be a mechanic is based at Obigbo in Port Harcourt and his role is to perfect documents of any snatched car sent to him and the money from the sale of the cars are paid into his bank account.

In his confession, Monday said: “I am from Ado Local Government Area of Benue State. I became a commercial bus driver to get money to continue my education. I stopped at Senior Secondary Two (SS2) because I had no money to continue. Unfortunately, I did not get enough money from driving bus.

“In 2015, my friend, Oriyan formed an armed robbery gang and lured me into it. When they snatched one car they gave it to me but SARS operatives arrested me and I was sent to Keffi Prison by an Abuja court. When I came back from prison, Oriyan promised to give me money to back to school. I did not know that he was arranging another robbery operation.

“One morning, one Eze Nwadebelu brought two guns and later brought two more guns and we robbed in Abuja and snatched over 20 cars with the guns. We are five in number, namely Origyan; Unogu; Adayi; Mike and myself. We used to trail victims to super market, banks, clubs, ATM Gallery and even to their residential houses. Our car dealer whose role is to help dispose of our stolen cars is Alfred Adayi aka Olu Motors based in Benue. We used to sell at giveaway price. Highlander Jeep N400,000, Camry N250,000, End of Discussion N250,000. There was a Camry car, we sold N100,000 and used the money to prepare for operation.”

Continuing, he said: “We used women pr*stitute to get information on how police are looking for us and the position of the victims after the operation. We used to sleep in hotels that are not well patronized and located in a remote area and at times the owners of the hotels and their staff assist us with information and private accommodation for which we pay special money.

“I spent three months in prison and prison made me to be hardened. Prince was still at large when I was sentenced to prison. I pay N3,000 daily in hotel when I was in hiding and I used to change my sim cards regularly to avoid trace from police. Sometimes I used unregistered sim and it works for me. I also monitor peoples phones for my gang.”

10 Things You Should Know About Christian Meditation

The word “meditation” has developed something of a bad reputation in certain Christian circles. In this article I want to reclaim it as one of the essential spiritual disciplines for all believers.

(1) Meditation begins, but by no means ends, with thinking on Scripture.

To meditate properly our souls must reflect upon what our minds have ingested and our hearts must rejoice in what our souls have grasped. We have truly meditated when we slowly read, prayerfully imbibe and humbly rely upon what God has revealed to us in his Word. All of this, of course, in conscious dependence on the internal, energizing work of the Spirit.

(2) Meditation, then, is being attentive to God. 

It is one way we “keep seeking the things above where Christ is” (Col. 3:1). It is a conscious, continuous engagement of the mind with God. This renewing of the mind (Rom. 12:1-2) is part of the process by which the word of God penetrates the soul and spirit with the light of illumination and the power of transformation.

(3) Meditation on Scripture is essential to Christian living. 

Just consider a handful of texts that make this clear.

“This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success” (Joshua 1:8).

“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night” (Ps. 1:1-2). 

“I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you” (Ps. 119:11).
“I will meditate on your precepts, and fix my eyes on your ways” (Ps. 119:15). 

In addition, consider numerous other exhortations and examples of meditation on God’s word from Psalm 119:23, 48, 78, 97, 99, 103, 148.

(4) We should also train our souls to meditate on the glory and majesty of God as revealed in natural creation. 

Jonathan Edwards describes the impact of one particular encounter with the power and wonder of creation:

“And as I walking there [in his father’s pasture], and looked up on the sky and clouds; there came into my mind, a sweet sense of the glorious majesty and grace of God, that I know not how to express. . . . The appearance of everything was altered: there seemed to be, as it were, a calm, sweet cast, or appearance of divine glory, in almost everything. God’s excellency, his wisdom, his purity and love, seemed to appear in everything; in the sun, moon and stars; in the clouds, and blue sky; in the grass, flowers, trees; in the water, and all nature; which used greatly to fix my mind. I often used to sit and view the moon, for a long time; and so in the day time, spent much time in viewing the clouds and sky, to behold the sweet glory of God in these things: in the mean time, singing forth with a low voice, my contemplations of the Creator and Redeemer. And scarce any thing, among all the works of nature, was so sweet to me as thunder and lightning. 

Formerly, nothing had been so terrible to me. I used to be a person uncommonly terrified with thunder: and it used to strike me with terror, when I saw a thunder-storm rising. But now, on the contrary, it rejoiced me. I felt God at the first appearance of a thunder-storm. And used to take the opportunity at such times to fix myself to view the clouds, and see the lightnings play, and hear the majestic and awful voice of God’s thunder: which often times was exceeding entertaining, leading me to sweet contemplations of my great and glorious God. And while I viewed, used to spend my time, as it always seemed natural to me, to sing or chant forth my meditations; to speak my thoughts in soliloquies, and speak with a singing voice” (Extractions from his Private Diary, 27-28).

(5) We should also regularly reflect and meditate on God himself and his many works. 
“One thing I have asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire [meditate, NASB] in his temple” (Ps. 27:4).

“when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night” (Ps. 63:6).

“I consider the days of old, the years long ago. I said, ‘Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart. Then my spirit made a diligent search. . . . I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old. I will ponder [meditate] all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds” (Ps. 77:5-6, 11-12; see also Psalm 111:2; 119:27; 143:5; 145:5).

(6) Christian meditation must be distinguished from the sort that we find in eastern religions or more recent new age fads. 

For example, unlike eastern meditation, which advocates emptying the mind, Christian meditation calls on us to fill our mind with God and his truth. Nowhere in the Bible is the “mind”, per se, described as evil or unworthy of being the means by which God communicates with us. What the Bible does denounce is intellectual pride, but not the intellect itself. It is humility that we need, not ignorance. I stand opposed to arrogant and cynical intellectualism. But that is not the same thing as using the mind God has given us, with the help of the Holy Spirit and the instruction of Scripture, to evaluate and discern and critically assess what is happening in both the church and the world. 

Thus, unlike eastern meditation, which advocates mental passivity, Christian meditation calls on us to actively exert our mental energy. This is nowhere better stated than by Paul in Philippians 4:8. Here he encourages us to “let our minds dwell on” whatever is “true,” “honorable,” “right,” “pure,” “lovely,” and of “good repute.” Those things that are “excellent” and “worthy of praise” are to be the targets of our mental aim. It isn’t enough merely to acknowledge that things and ideas of moral and mental excellence are important. Merely affirming such truths and virtues will avail little in a time of testing. We must energetically reckon, take into account, and give deliberative weight to these things. Our minds must be captivated by them in such a way that the tawdry, sleazy, fictitious, and fanciful fluff of the world loses its appeal. 

Unlike eastern meditation, which advocates detachment from the world, Christian meditation calls for attachment to God. If the believer disengages from the distractions and allurements of the world, it is in order that he/she might engage with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Unlike eastern meditation, which advocates visualization in order to create one’s own reality, Christian meditation calls for visualization of the reality already created by God. Unlike eastern meditation, which advocates metaphysical union with ‘god’, Christian meditation calls for spiritual communion with God. Unlike eastern meditation, which advocates an inner journey to find the center of one’s being, Christian meditation calls for an outward focus on the objective revelation of God in Scripture and creation. Unlike eastern meditation, which advocates mystical transport as the goal of one’s efforts, Christian meditation calls for moral transformation as the goal of one’s efforts.

(7) So how should the Christian go about developing the discipline of meditation? 

The first step is to rehearse in one’s mind the presence of God. Perhaps reading and reflecting on Psalm 139:1-10will help. Focus your attention on the inescapable presence, the intimate nearness of God. Issues of posture, time, and place are secondary, but not unimportant. The only rule would be: do whatever is most conducive to concentration. If a posture is uncomfortable, change it. If a particular time of day or night is inconvenient, change it. If the place you have chosen exposes you to repeated interruptions and distractions, move it. I enjoy watching football on TV as much as the next guy, but trying to engage with God’s Word during the huddle is hardly an effective way to experience its power!

(8) The second step is to peruse. 

By this I mean read, repeat the reading, write it out, then re-write it. We must keep in mind the difference between informative reading of the Scriptures and formative reading. The former focuses on the gathering of information, the increase of knowledge, the collection and memorization of data. The purpose of the latter is to be formed or shaped by the text, through the work of the Holy Spirit. With informative reading, I am in control of the text. With formative reading, the text controls me.

(9) It also helps to apply your imagination and senses to the truth of the text. 

Envision yourself personally engaged in the relationship or encounter or experience of which the text speaks. Hear the words as they are spoken. Feel the touch of Jesus on a diseased body. Taste and smell the fish and bread as they are served to the multitudes. See the truths that God has revealed by mentally recreating the scene with yourself present. There is nothing magical or mysterious in this. The purpose of the imagination is not, as some have argued, to create our own reality. Our imagination is a function of our minds whereby we experience more intimately and powerfully the reality God has created. As you are doing so, reflect on the truth of the Word; brood over the truth of the text; absorb it, soak in it, as you turn it over and over in your mind.

(10) The final steps can be summarized in four words: pray, personalize, praise, and practice. 
It is difficult to know when meditation moves into prayer. It isn’t really that important. But at some point, take the truth as the Holy Spirit has illumined it and pray it back to God, whether in petition, thanksgiving, or intercession. In other words, take Scripture and turn it into dialogue with God.

Where possible, and according to sound principles of biblical interpretation, replace proper names and personal pronouns with your own name. God never intended for his Word to float aimlessly in impersonal abstractions. He designed it for you and for me.

Then worship the Lord for who he is and what he has done and how it has been revealed in Scripture. Meditation ought always to lead us into adoration and celebration of God.

Finally, practice. Commit yourself to doing what the Word commands. The aim of meditation is moral transformation. The aim of contemplation is obedience. And in obedience is joy inexpressible and full of glory.

Ways To Make Guests Feel Welcome In Your Church

While I was in college, a local church offered me a hospitality internship. My goal was to attract new guests, create a welcoming environment, and develop a process that ultimately leads guests into membership.

Easy, I thought. I’m studying hospitality management and marketing…how hard could this be?

Sweet, naïve Lindsey.

My confidence was quickly shaken as I realized how hard it is to change an entire church culture. 

I struggled for an entire semester, pushing and pulling and fighting against antiquated ideas of hospitality.

But I can assure you that creating a welcoming church is a challenge that is well worth the effort. Making a positive first impression encourages guests to return next week. The more second and third-time guests, the more likely your church is to see long-lasting growth.

To save you from enduring some of the pain I’ve experienced, I present my top ways to make church guests feel more welcome:

Be Authentic 
There’s nothing more welcoming than authenticity. People crave genuineness, especially while church hunting. So, when you cultivate a church environment that lets people express their doubts, their fears, and their mistakes, you’re giving them the freedom to be themselves! They can sit back, relax, and really take in their experience.

By creating this authentic environment, you’ll automatically start attracting people who are meant to be a part of your congregation—people who feel like they belong in your church culture—and I guarantee your church will greatly benefit from their time and talents.

On the other hand, if your church is relentlessly striving to project an image of perfection, you’re going to unintentionally create surface-level relationships. That’s a huge turn-off for most church hunters! So do your best to be true to who you are – mistakes, fears, and doubts included!

Have a Joyful Greeter 
This may seem old-fashioned, but having a greeter at each door is an easy way to welcome guests. It immediately gives visitors a personal connection with a member of your church. Even if they go the rest of the service without speaking with anyone else, they’ll remember the pleasant interaction with your greeter.

Having greeters also benefits your church! With welcoming volunteers in place, you’ll have a low-pressure, one-on-one touch point with guests every single week. That’s invaluable to building relationships!

But don’t just let anyone man the doors. Seek out church members who love meeting new people, are exceptionally joyful, and have a strong knowledge base of your church mission and programs. These are the greeters that help make a lasting impression and keep guests coming back for more.

Create Community 
So many churches aim to create an experience: people come in, grab a cup of fancy coffee, watch cinematic-quality video announcements, worship to a light-show and fog, hear a preacher talk to hundreds or thousands of people, and then walk out the door without acknowledging anyone else.

Now, don’t misunderstand me; I believe God is working through the worship and the message.

The only problem is that these movie theater-type experiences don’t welcome guests. I mean, when was the last time you left the movie theater feeling like you really connected with someone new?

So instead of focusing on crafting the perfect experience, shift your focus to creating a community within your church and let the experience flow from that. It will be far more inviting to your guests if they know that they’re walking into a community, not a show.

Pay Attention to the Small Details 
When making your church more welcoming, one of the biggest things you can do is pay attention to the small things.

Offer free tea and coffee, ensure that your seats are comfortable, and always spring for the nicer toilet paper.

While it seems silly that something as simple as quilted TP makes a noticeable difference, keep in mind that we serve a big God who cares enough to count the number of hairs on our head. Your church is lavishing people in a way that exemplifies God’s character. Who doesn’t feel appreciated when someone goes out of their way to bless us?

When you’re putting your best foot forward, even in the tiniest ways, it communicates to your guests how deeply your hospitality runs.

Signs, Signs, Signs! 
Do you know what the best part of great signage is? It’s the way in which you give your guests the opportunity to be self-sufficient.

Long gone are the days of guests wandering around the church building, wide-eyed and timid as they try to find their way. Clear and well-placed signs are here to save the day!

Bathrooms? Check! Children’s Ministry drop off? Check! Coffee and donuts? Check and check!

You’ve empowered your visitors to make it through an entire church service on their own. If they want someone to know they’re a guest, they can simply follow the signs to the welcome table! Guests who want to lay low and soak in the true community of your church without everyone knowing they’re new are given the opportunity to do so.

Think About Your Service Through Your Guests’ Eyes 
There are many things in a church service that are routine for members, but completely foreign to guests. Keep in mind, not everyone comes from the same church background (if they even come from a church background at all).

Let’s take the most common example: communion. In some churches, people come forward to receive the Eucharist, while other churches pass around the elements. Some churches only allow members to take communion, while others are open to all believers.

While this is just one example, there are many other aspects of a service that need to be explained to guests.

Does everyone stand at a certain point? Is there a unified response from the congregation? Do you all read the scripture aloud together? These are things that guests won’t automatically know.

The fix? Simply explain in the program or provide a brief explanation before beginning any potentially unclear activity.

Cultivate a Happy Congregation 
Have you ever gone to a friend’s house for a dinner that turned out to be incredibly tense? No one was mentioning it, but it was completely obvious that they had gotten into a family fight right before you rang the doorbell. Awkward!

It’s not too different if there’s an underlying problem with gossip or discontentment in your church, even if no one is talking about it. Your visitors will feel the same tense feeling.

Now think about the best dinner party you’ve ever attended. You walked through the door and immediately felt like a member of the family. It was warm and welcoming

Your church can create that joyful atmosphere by simply having happy members. No, every single member won’t be happy and it’s in no way church leaders’ responsibility to people-please. But pastors can help set the tone by leading with an example of thankfulness and gratitude.

Have a Pastor Acknowledge Guests 
“Oh! Our church does this really well. We make our guests wear name tags and ribbons and we make them stand up during the service so we can all clap for them!”

No, no, no!

The goal is to let guests know that they’re welcome at your church, not to gawk at them in front of the congregation.

Ideally, the pastor will see a new person and make an introduction; in fact, this is how I found my first church home in Colorado. The associate pastor came over and introduced himself on my first visit, and I immediately felt a sense of belonging.

While this is great, it’s not always realistic depending on congregation size and pastor availability. But the pastor should at least take a moment during the announcements to welcome guests and point out where more information is available.
