Forget Money!

Hello beautiful people!
                It's really a delight to be typing here again after such a long time!!!!! Spoken word poetry and fiction writing has being keeping me extremely busy. But it's really good to be here again!
              So many things has being happening around the world and even here in Nigeria. I personally am not very good with the news. Not only do I not like watching the news, I intentionally don't like listening to it. Its a lot of negativity and I feel its harmful to my well being. But at the same time, Its important for us to be conscious of what's happening globally. Because the world needs our prayers. The rate of killings in the US at the moment is alarming! Nigeria and the world needs our prayers. Whenever you can, take out time to pray. Like, really pray!

              I didn't come here to write about Nigeria and the world, so don't fret. I came here to tell you that the life you live as a Christian isn't one that should be enveloped with the desire to make money or wanting to become famous. I have met Christians who work out their butts just for the sake of making money. And there's nothing wrong with working for money, but there's something wrong with being enveloped by the need to make money.
            At every point in time, our main motive for doing whatever we do as Christian must always be for the glory of God. Fame and money are too fickle to be your life's goal. One of the most life changing word I've heard this year is this: "Money can never be the yardstick for measuring value!"
           Money will die! you won't take fame to Heaven. So just calm down! Too much money might not be coming into your account, don't worry, money isn't the yardstick for measuring value anyway. Keep doing what you're doing for the glory of God!
          The times when I was doing spoken word to blow have pass tey tey! I'm not doing what I do so that I would blow! The flesh wants to blow off course. But I'm learning to put the flesh in subjection to the Spirit. I constantly remind myself that God should always be my focus at all times.
          If you have being telling yourself: 'This money, I'll make it!' or 'I'll blow in this life!', maybe its time to check your heart, remove every trace of money or fame and place God in its place.
         As a person, my flesh gets in the way a lot, but the Holy Spirit keeps getting my heart in the right part. God must always be placed as priority in our heart over everything else!
That's my very short message to all! \
       That said, SWPC IV WAS THA BOMB!  As many that were not at the event, I'll share a couple of pictures with you.

DEBISI

                "You are pregnant!"          As the words made their way out of the mouth of the plumb sized doctor seated in front of her,Debisi's knees shook vehemently.       Less than three days ago she was awarded the 'most devoted and spiritual teenager' by her church. How would she explain all of this to her pastors and friends in church?     Tears dropped without interruption. In just a few minutes, her entire life was shattered right before her eyes. "Young lady! Are you listening?" The doctor called.     She looked up at him, “I heard all you said doctor. Can I see the test results?" She said amidst soft dripping tears. He handed her a white sealed envelope. She tore it open it and froze all over again. She was indeed pregnant!     Why did this have to happen to her? What wrong did she d...
 LETTERS!!!        Hi everyone! it feels good to be typing again after such a long time.....I think the last time I was here was early last month,for me that a really long time. missed you all like seriously!        Yesterday was February 14,a day where many people,some went on love strike,some have girlfriends they need to please,some just like romance and celebration things....the list is endless.        I'm happy to announce to you that i slept almost all through yesterday. there was vigil on friday night so the sleep was quite heavy! and i enjoyed it. i['m not one who can say boldly that i do not celebrate valentine or that i dont like it and I cant say i like or celebrate it either. i'm just on the sidelines....somewhere in my heart i just deeply wish the day is a lot more understood. so having said that,i hope you spent valentine's day well? its rhetorical! Well,that's not the topic f...

"Unchristian guys are ugly!" Amakason

Ezekiel Azonwu and pregnant wife...talk about a picture that can send one to the Heaven-lies....whoa!             If you have known Amakason for a long time and still haven't noticed or come in contact with my amazing love for spoken word and everything that is connected to it,then you really don't know me.        Since I discovered spoken word two years ago,we have being inseparable....Shout out to Jackie Hill Perry for being such a great artist...there are some poets you listen to and you just change the channel but for Jackie Hill....the moment you just see her dreads,Holyspirit will just start ministering to you. If she starts talking nko? lets leave matter for Mattias...        My write up isn't about Jackie Hill,its about a guy named Ezekiel Azonwu... When you mention Christian spoken word artists in the world and do not mention Ezekiel,then you haven't started...
