My Bible Today – June 11

It is a good thing to appear in God’s presence
all the time; it be a Morning Devotion, Mid night
prayers or Church Service. For we are sure of
answered prayers, bringing gladness to our hearts
and as well, a sweet Fellowshipping with His
Holy Spirit, who inspires our hearts and give
directions to our paths. Nothing can replace
the place of God in our heart; so nothing is
worth trading for it!

My Bible Today – June 10

Trials are inevitable when it comes to life, but a must have as well are strength and courage if we must prevail! Mean while, the word of the Lord made it clear what that strength really is in the book of Proverbs 24:5, “a man of knowledge increases strength….”. Therefore, if we desire to conquer every trial that comes our way, acquisition and familiarity with God’s word is also a must, because that is where true strength comes from!!

May the Lord bless the reading of His word in your heart. Amen

Nigeria: Mourning and Anger in Owo, Ondo State following deadly church attack

After sadness and fear, it is anger that has emerged in Owo town,
southwest Nigeria, following a deadly church attack in the
country’s relatively peaceful region.

Women marched in protest outside the traditional palace of Owo on
Tuesday.

Some of them calls for revenge against those responsible for the
attack in the St. Francis Catholic Church.

‘We are here as market women, Yemi Mahmud said, we are here to
commiserate with the people of Owo, we are to say that enough is
enough, we have a parlance in Owo, we say that “We don’t have war
in Owo” it has never happened, we don’t have war in Owo, Owo is a
peaceful place but this has happened now, it’s strange to us.”

It’s an entire community that is still traumatized by the murder
of at least 22 people including children.

If President Buhari ordered a full-scale investigation, the Ondo
Police Command has not made any arrests yet. According to a
spokeswoman, there was at least 5 assailants.

Meanwhile, Schools and public gathering spots remained closed in
Owo on Tuesday. The Owo kingdom’s monarch, Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin
Ogunoye, brought together ethnic leaders for discussions as he
expressed his fears the violence could escalate further.

Owo’s monarch, warned of a humanitarian crisis should the internal
conflict expand further into southern Nigeria and force millions
of people to flee.
