If Not He is still good..yeah He still good..The ongoing tension of students unrest found me at the wrong place at the wrong time n it landed me little bit of trouble..I was beaten,battered and harrased infront of people yet i never took part in any of these.I took leave like the rest and found a place to be during tge unrest yet a policeman followed me from the latrine and accused me wrongfully of throwing stones..i never resisted when he called me not knowing he had uncouth things in mind..he arrested me n took me to the others who beaten me up n locked me in their van. One told me that my days with campus were over and that noone would help me..He was wrong for whenever he said that i just silently said.”you are wrong for am an ambassador of the most high God..he would fight for me..i was wrongly accused and the Lord knew it too..another one more sensible came on n looked at my hands and suggested that i dont look like one who could throw a stone..he asked me what coukd make me prove my innocence n i said God knows too n he asked me to show if I was born again..i just showed him my PUCU departmental families..he let me go..i do not take delight that i was beaten yet i was innocent but I delight in the fact that Lord is still good..He fought my battle for me today.. What i want to say that many too suffer yet they are not involved,,those who stay in the school has nowhere to go..those who were busy with classes can not go on because the satan is in control,,there are very many diplomacy ways of solving this unrest but violence has never n will never solve anything..there will always be consequences of whatever decisions we take..we yet suffer in the decisions and choices we didnt make..how i wish we pray hard for this institution..how i pray that this unrest be in one of our prayer item in this week prayers..the Lord will always show the way I believe..am not hurt so much i thank God but it sickens me when this goes on to disrupt the peace we would wish to have wherever we are…HE STILL GOOD

Where were you?? ..many a times we view our suffering as a source of questions to God and even see it as a source of unbelief in one true God..you goes on to justify and validate this uncouth sentence that if God were too powerful why does he allows such a such a thing to happen. First we need to understand,He is who He is period..His ways will always be incomprehensible to the human mind n He doesn’t have an explanation for whatever He does. Why do we then ask why,why without glorifying Him in the midst of all this. Many times I say our suffering should be a source of courage for as believers we took the yoke and burden Jesus Christ called us for n in our walk of Faith,suffering will be part n parcel of it n how you view it will be what make or break you..taking up courage brings in perseverence and endurance needed to conquer similar situations in future. God does everything for His glory..in as much as He does not delight in His people suffering but He delight more in seeing you Trust Him more n cultivate courage in the midst of all that, it will glorify His name n there is nothing more you were created for than for the glory of God.Take up courage for it ain’t your battle..its the Lord’s. Do not take up arms in a war you know very well aint yours, delight in the peace,strength and assurance you get in the Lord.
What is the greatest pleasure one can have in this world,,what’s the greatest comfort than we have that Jesus paid it all juat by three words everything changed..”it is finished”..He said..the pleasure that the death that stared at me ready to devour every sinew,every bone n marrow in my body is no more..What’s your greatest pleasure brethren??..get we were still sinners He died for us. I have come to realize that salavation is everything to do with God.for it His purpose n glory to decide to save us through His son,He Himself provides the Faith to which we believe in,He himself elects us into His flock. Thats the greatest Pleasure..where do i find my pleasure in the midst of all this that happen in the world today..2 Timothy:3.2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2 Timothy:3.3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good..that is the world today..but in the midst of all this i still have the greatest pleasure that this shall come to pass and in my fight for the kingdom i shall conquer and reign with him.Colossians:2.15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. …MY GREATEST PLEASURE LIES IN THE ASSURANCE THAT HE PAID IT ALL
When the going gets tough we say the tough gets going but what keeps you going n not stumbling when you go?,,i have walked the faith and whenever i do stumbles there is an assurance that the lord i believe in is risen n that’s enough,,it keeps be among the tough for i know Him n he too knows me by my name,,am proud he elected me and am among His sheep,,God tells Joshua,just as He was with Moses he will be with him too.if He is for us who can be against us,,Isaiah 40:31 says that those who wait upon the Lord shall mount like eagles,shall walk n not be weary,shall run but not faint.that is a true meaning of the tough going despite all the physicality of the journey for we know the source of strength,,WE WAIT UPON THE LRD.
