ARTICLE:

A NEW NIGERIA



Anchor passage: 1kings.19:18



        The economic situation of things in the land of Israel during the time of Elijah in those days is similar to what we have in this country today. There is widespread corruption and pervation of justice at all levels of governance. The people have forgotten about God and have placed so much priority on the things of this world. Some have practically become slaves of money, involving in nefarious activities just to make a living. False doctrines are widely in circulation in the churches and people are misled massively into hell. The system of governance was completely corrupt, influencing people to forget the living God and cut corners to prosper especially financially. The elections are here again and it is time to decide for our nation. Will you stand for what is right and vote in the right candidate? Will you dare to do play your own part with integrity for Nigeria for another four years?
          Elijah, as a man of God stood for what is right and fearlessly confronted the situation of the nation of Israel at the time. He challenged the prophets of Baal to a duo with the Almighty God and he ended up asking God to destroy them all by fire in the end. Elijah stood against all odds to restore the nation of Israel back for God. At a point,he was threatened by Jezebel,which made him run for dear life into the cave. It was in this cave that God told him about the seven thousand people he was secretly raising in the land to turn things around for Israel.
        I see GOd doing a similar thing in this nation today.God has finally spoken that "BY DECEMBER,31 2025,NIGERIA WILL BE ONE OF THE MOST DESIRABLE NATIONS IN THE WORLD TO LIVE IN" there have been prophecies and there have been prophecies about Nigeria in the past, but this time around, I see God quietly raising a new set of leaders, a new generation of worshipers who will take over the hem of affairs in the nearest future. These are a holy nation, a peculiar people who have never bowed their kneels to idols or kissed them. A new set of leaders who are filled with the spirit of God, leaders who will shake their generation for God and do great exploits. The question remains, "Are you a part of the new generation that God is raising?" ..."Will you withness or play an active role in transformation agenda that God has begun in the nation?" This has gone beyond a wish or prayer, so I don't even need you to say amen!.It is a reality. God has started it already. Great men of God in the country has prophesied and confirmed it repeatedly.So it's no longer "beans" or "dem say dem say". If you know what's good for you,you better key into the vision and start walking in that realm. Otherwise,you'll be caught unawares or left behind. This year 2015 marks the beginning of a new century for our beloved nation. Here is an opportunity to play a major role in deciding the next set of leaders.It is better to act with integrity and watch the generations after reap the fruits of the wise seeds we sow now.
           There's still some time between now and then, you can still make your ways right with God and finally settle your scores with him.God is still extending his arm of help if you yield(Isaiah.1:18). Don't continue to waste you time with some unbelievers who keep saying there's no future for this country. It breaks my heart to know that most youths have given up on their fatherland. These are gonna be the set of people who people who will bite their fingers out of regret when things begin to change. Believe it and you will see it happen and if you think I'm exaggerating, go read 2kings.7:1-2, and see what happened to a man who didn't believe  Elisha's prophecy. May such not befall us in Jesus name
