Glaucoma, The Silent Thief Of Sight

Features

The eye is one of the most important organs of the human system. It gives light to the body. Almost all human activities depend on one’s ability to see. A person’s life patterns, goals and aspirations would be greatly interrupted if there were no eyes. Despite the great importance of the eye to life, it is a very delicate organ hence the need to pay critical attention to it. Just as other parts of the body are prone to diseases and disorders, the eye is not exempted. Due to its delicate nature, one’s inability to pay attention to it usually results in worst situations such as blindness. In this article, I will discuss and campaign about Glaucoma, nicknamed the silent thief of sight. The World Health Organization has designated March 9th to 15th as World Glaucoma Week. The focus...

Features

Main Texts: Revelation 5:10, Ephesians 4:1, 2 Kings 7:3-11, Acts 1:8 “And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth." (Rev. 5:10 KJV) A people chosen by God and made Kings and Priests, predestined to reign and rule the world in the worthiness of their calling, spreading kingdom principles and values.

While You Are Still Young

Features

The book of 2 Chronicles 34 v 1 – 3 strikes a chord in me, a chord that bothers decision-making. Making the right decision while you are still young. A decision that serves as a pivotal point to your success in life. In 2 Chronicles 34 v 1 – 3, the Bible reads, Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for thirty – one years. He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord and followed the ways of his father David, not turning aside to the right or the left. In the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David. In his twelfth year, he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of high places, Asherah poles, and idols – 2 Chronicles 34 v 1 – 3. In the above bible verse, the phrase “Whiles he was still young” comes...

Rev. James Mckeown: The Man Who Was Unleashed For Global Influence

Features

"The seed that was sown and watered with much tears of prayer has borne fruits. The big question now is: Will the fruit remain?" – Rev. James McKeown A prophetic declaration at a large Apostolic convention in England announced that a young couple was to go to West Africa as missionaries. Fifteen months passed before they finally accepted the call. What unfolded during that time? Was James grappling with his own sense of insignificance, paralysed by fear, or overwhelmed by doubt? The life of Rev. James McKeown is a remarkable testimony to the power of obedience in answering a divine call. Who would have thought that the seed sown in Asamankese in the then Gold Coast (now Ghana) would grow and spread to the four corners of the world? McKeown’s acceptance of the call led to the birth of...

Commission On A Mission Without Omission

Features

In fulfilling the Great Commission, there are various ways to share the gospel message today. Contextualisation plays a major role in this endeavour and cannot be downplayed. In some contexts, personal relationships and conversations with friends, family, and coworkers can effectively share the good news. Depending on your area, this can be a long-term project. Where applicable, we can also invite them to church or other Christian events. The Great Commission is an essential aspect of the Christian faith. The apostles demonstrated how to fulfill this command in the book of Acts by sharing the gospel message and making disciples of all nations. In the current dispensation and location we find ourselves, we can still contextualise the gospel and present it to every tribe, community,...

False Altars and Spiritual Deception: A Call to Return to True Worship

Features

Although "altars, in their literal meaning, are associated with physical materials, it is more than just a physical place; it is a spiritual symbol. In the olden days, altars were used as sacrificial grounds, representing the relationship between man and God. In a classical scenario, in the Old Testament, altars were used for burnt offerings (Leviticus 1:9); for instance, Abraham built an altar to God in Genesis 12:7 after receiving God's promise. These altars were not just physical structures but divine ones that exhibited man's fellowship and commitment. But today, our fellowship and worship with God is offered through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross, who has become the ultimate altar for us from that time. Hebrews 13:10 shows Jesus as our altar, replacing the old system of sa...

The Calling Received, As Department/Committee Workers Of Hum: The Inter-Departmental Teamwork (IDT) Culture In Perspective

Features

The concept and slogan, "All things to all People", of the Home and Urban Missions (HUM), is inspired by Paul's statement in 1 Corinthians 9:19-23. Paul, a Jew by birth and an apostle to the Gentiles by calling, subjected himself to the law of Christ, which transcends boundaries, cultures, social classes, and people groups. As a Jew and an apostle, Paul was entitled to many rights, privileges, usages, and laws. However, he chose not to stand on privileges but denied himself for their sakes, so that he might win their souls. Thus, he became all things to all people, so that by all lawful means, he might win some for Christ. This is the mandate of HUM. Through the leadership of the Chairman and the Executive Council of the Church, HUM was birthed in May 2019 at the 16th Extraordinary C...
