The Battle has been Won, We are just enforcing the defeat

By -

As Christians, we are not in any battle with the devil. There is no battle again. Christ defeated the devil and made a public example of him. Why still fight an already won battle?

The only thing we do is confirming and enforcing the defeat. In the military it is called a mop up operation. We are only soldiers assigned to our immediate environments to ensure criminals don't infiltrate the already conquered territory. We have the upper hand and full control. They tremble at the sight of us. We are in charge, we are the government. Live with this understanding.
(Colossians 2:10-20)

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -
Image
This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Eggshells (Episode 5)

Felix and Tonia entered in together. They met Ada setting the table for dinner. She looked at him scornfully and went into the kitchen to get other items. Meanwhile, Felix offered Tonia a seat. Ada returned with two glass cups in her hands. She placed them on the table and was about dishing the food when Felix spoke. "Can't you see we have a guest?" She looked at him and dropped the plate in her hand on the table. "Point of correction, your guest and not mine. I don't know her", she said and hissed. Felix shook his head. "And you don't bother to know her? She would like to see you." "For what? Is she not your mistress? You've finally brought her. You have no shame." Felix was confused and upset. He wanted to speak but he was stopped by Tonia who rose up. "It's okay Felix." She turned to Ada. "Hello dear. I believe you don't know me and that's why you're reacting this way. My name is Mrs Toni...

Eggshells (Episode 7)

Jessica got up from her daughter's bed as she heard a knock on her door. She wondered who would want to see her that early on a Sunday morning. She walked to the sitting room and took the keys from where it was hung on the wall and unlocked the door. The man who stood outside was a man she knew so well; a man who had been in her past, Tunde Balogun himself. He was dressed in a white Ankara fabric as his car keys were in his left hand. He was holding a nylon bag which looked like a gift pack he had got from a children's store in the other hand. Jessica gave him a straight face. "How can I help you? It's too early to come to my house." "I didn't come to see you. I came to see my daughter. Is she in? Can I go in?", he said and tried entering. Jessica blocked him. " Are you out of your mind? Who is your daughter? No one is in here so leave now." Tunde laughed. "You don't have to be so defensive, Jessica. You and I know our daugh...

Treat your brand as an Investment, not a Cost

By -
Image
Let me iterate - "branding is the projection of your visions and the big picture in you. It is bringing to life, the dreams you have". How much does it cost to bring your vision to life? It boils down to how big, clear and crisp your inner pictures are. Branding is expensive only if you see it as expensive. I have seen people project their brands with less crisp graphics. I have seen people unintentionally creating the wrong narratives for their brands through branding that leaves lot to be desired. Electronic media is a game of perception, how you package yourself creates narratives in the mind of your target audience. When you consistently fail to create the right narratives, you eventually hurt your business. How much does it cost to get a crisp head shot? How much does it cost to hire the service of professionals? You don't have to break the bank give your customers the best experience. You don't have to commit too much to keep to your promises and deliver quali...

• Eyes are the second most complex organ after the brain. •  Your eyes start to develop two weeks after you are conceived. • A fingerprint has 40 unique characteristics, but an iris has 256; a reason retina scans are increasingly being used for security purposes. • To protect our eyes, they are positioned in a hollowed eye socket, while eyebrows prevent sweat dripping into your eyes and eyelashes keep dirt out of your eyes. • Your eyeballs stay the same size from birth to death, while your nose and ears continue to grow. • An eye is composed of more than 2 million working parts. • Only 1/6 of the human eyeball is exposed. • Corneas are the only tissues that don’t have blood. • People who are blind can see their dreams if they weren’t born blind. • An eye cannot be transplanted. More than 1 million nerve fibers connect each eye to the brain and currently we’re not able to reconstruct those connections. Qoute: "An interesting thing about science is that it is true whether...

If Donald thought Stella would let him leave the house that morning so easily, then he was mistaken. Donald who was dressed for the office with his suitcase in his hand tried to open the door to leave the house. However, the door didn't open. He tried severally until Stella came out to the sitting room with a smile on her face. She had locked the door and she was holding the keys in her hand. She smiled widely as Donald turned back to look at her. He placed his suitcase on the table. He looked angry. "What is the meaning of this, Stella? Have you gone mad?" "No. You are the one who has gone mad since you refused to touch your wife and satisfy her", she said pointing at him. He shook his head. "You have definitely gone insane. Is that why you locked the door? Let me have the keys. I'm running late." Stella laughed. "You're going nowhere Donald. We'll both stay in this house throughout today until you give me what I want." ...
