Handling your Sanballat and Tobiah By Babatunde Olugboji We all have at least one Sanballat in our life. If you’ve been a believer for any period of time, you would likely have come across somebody trying to discourage you along the way. Whether they tried to kill your enthusiasm for something you are doing, said bad things about you behind your back or tell you that you can’t achieve what you are trying to get done, a Sanballat is around just about every corner.

DIG IT UP: OPPORTUNITY IS SPELT W-O-R-K By Dr Segun ‘Tremendous’ Oshinaga One of the tragedies of life is to be poor in the midst of plenty, miserable in the land of mirth. I read the story of a poor man who sat on a side street in Manhattan, New York begging for alms in the heat and the cold. City council workers found him dead one extremely cold morning. When they opened his clothes, they found over $100,000.00 sewed into his clothes. Can you believe the irony of a man loaded with so much money begging for pennies?…
Believers as Watchmen By Babatunde Olugboji In Ezekiel 3, God reminded Ezekiel of his watchman role. One of the primary responsibilities of a watchman is to be on the lookout, to stand on the wall, looking out to see when an enemy is coming or when anything is approaching that those inside the walls need to be warned about. This was why God said, “I’ve made you a watchman, Ezekiel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me.” Ezekiel 3:17 contains a sobering warning and those who heed those warnings are watchmen on…
