Overcoming National Challenges

  


Welcome onto blog titled obstacle on the path of spiritual awakening, "National challenges are issues affecting our country's progress, stability, or citizens' well-being especially, like

Security threats (e.g., banditry, terrorism)

Economic hardship (e.g., poverty, inflation)

Governance issues (e.g., corruption, leadership gaps)

Social problems (e.g., inequality, healthcare gaps)

Please bear with me, these elements afore mentioned are spiritual symptoms, in 7 folds, could also be identified as divine penalty from Almighty God. On nations that lack His fear (reverence), often challenged from the Northern part biblically.

At this junction, inhabitants of Nigeria must realized that, government is instituted by God, for safety of humanity. As it is written in Romans 13:1-2 "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established." 

Furthermore, the citizenry and those at the position of power should stop complexing our national problem. They should go and learn how to seek help from God, requiring finding and promoting the fear of the God, which is missing among the populace.

Leaders too must understand that, they are here, under divine purpose. For by God, kings reign... rulers decree justice.” [Proverbs 8:15-16] 

 How To overcome our National challenges 🇳🇬 

Government to device ways of promoting fear of God” by gathering scholars that, had understanding on this matter only like during the era of biblical king Josiah. To make people 

Know God's Word (Psalm 119:161)

Reflecting on God's greatness (Psalm 145:3-6)

Living humbly (Micah 6:8, Proverbs 22:4)

Practical steps:

1. Read the Bible daily 

2. Pray for understanding 

3. Surround yourself with godly people 

In conclusion, the Bible also offers guidance out of tough times. Here are some references:

- We must unite in crisis, to seek God’s mercy: "United we stand, divided we fall" (Ecclesiastes 4:12)

- Seek godly wisdom: "If any of you lacks wisdom, ask God" (James 1:5)

- Trust in God's sovereignty: "The Lord will fulfill His good purposes toward us" (Psalm 138:8) in Nigeria? (e.g., security, leadership, economic )

“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God”? Micah 6:8

Pray point

 "If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." - 

2 Chronicles 7:14 (AMP)

God, Nigerian’s call on You. We humble ourselves, seek Your face, and turn from wicked ways. Hear from heaven, forgive our sins, and heal our land 🙏. Amen 🇳🇬" in the area of security, leadership, economy etc

Fresh Experience (i.e a new song representing a recent experience of God's deliverance or blessing, sparking joy and gratitude wait Nigerians).

Faith That Overcomes

Image
Pioneer of Mobile gospel ministry Pastor Akinyemi S Olatokunbo, welcome our audience, across the globe. Onto one of our epistle blog titled, obstacle on the path of spiritual awakening. To come and find enough strength in God's unwavering Presence. In the face of adversity, we often find ourselves asking, "Can I really overcome this?" The answer lies not in our own strength, but in the unshakeable foundation of our faith. The Bible is replete with examples of individuals who, despite seemingly insurmountable challenges, chose to trust in God's sovereignty and emerged victorious. Abraham, Moses, David, and countless others demonstrate that faith is not the absence of fear, but the courage to trust in God's goodness and power. When we face trials, we're tempted to focus on the problem rather than the Problem-Solver. Yet, Scripture reminds us that "with God, all things are possible" (Matthew 19:26). Our faith is not a magic wand, but a powerful tool tha...

   Hey! As a Christian, tonight's cross over service promised to usher in the New year 2026. Accept my congratulatory message, “Happy New year” from the pioneer of Mobile gospel ministry (Pastor Akinyemi S. Olatokunbo).  I am also imploring those spiritually awoken not to be carried away by its unnecessary excitement. For our Christian faith required us to be intentional, if we would rise above our weakness like this regenerated king of Babylon”.  “ Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase” .  Daniel 4: 37 Human weakness could also be referred to as limitations, vulnerabilities, and imperfections e.t.c or classified as: 1.

Our focus in this flight manual, as rapture is drawing nearer. We pray that Almighty God would grant us enough strength and wisdom for proper heavenly boarding.  So as not to miss the redemptive flight of Christ to peaceful heaven. “For our citizenship is in heaven, as we eagerly await Christ's return. Who will transform and fashion anew the body of our humiliation to conform to and be like the body of His glory and majesty, by exerting that power which enables Him even to subject everything to Himself. [Philippians 3:20-21]. Without neglecting, what would become the fate of a disobedient passenger that missed the free first flight of Christ, hum!  On this our communal flight board tagged, “Overcoming obstacles on the path of spiritual awakening.
