GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

YOUR SUNDAY WITH PROPHET M.K.O. TIBETAN!

Today Sunday November 9th, 2008 'Icheoku dot com' brings to you part four of our new series "YOUR SUNDAY WITH PROPHET M.K.O. TIBETAN". This man of God writes on whatever subject he deems topical and Icheoku merely publishes same seriatim, without any input whatsoever, since we are not all that versed in the ways of God to have an opinion. Today, Prophet Marcus Korodele Oluwatomisin writes on "GOD'S TIME". Please enjoy his perspectives:-
"The topic for today is TIME! What is time? Who created time? Who makes time work? In Ecclesiastes 3 vs.1-10 it says, for everything under the heavens there is time - time to cultivate, time to plant and time to harvest, time to be born and time to die.
No one has power over time, except the Author and the Finisher of our faith, the Almighty God. Looking at all the activities of every human race - Black, White, Asian, Hispanic and Indians, we all work according to time. In Europe and America, the white folks work conscientiously with time but the people of colour including blacks, disregard time and treat it with levity. This disdain for time is what makes us to lack behind, leading to western world reference to us as third world.
Reading Genesis 30 vs. 25 - 43, it tells us that God deliberately delayed Jacob’s time despite his urge and desire to work ahead of time. In Genesis 15 vs. 12 - 16, when the Lord Almighty decided to delay the freedom of the Israelites and made them remain in servitude in Egypt under Pharaoh due to their disobedience. God kept their suffering until the time appointed for them to walk their away from their punishment as recorded in Genesis 47. The good Lord knew the time that the Israelite will be freed from their slavery in Egypt, He raise one of them “MOSES” to carry out their deliverance from Egypt, this came to fulfilment in Exodus Chapters 12, 13, 14,15 and 16. From reading all these chapters, we see how God took the people of Israelites through the RED SEA, gave them manna from Heaven, delivered to them the 10 commandments and with all they went through in the wilderness, their shoes never wore out. This shows how great out Lord is, everything that happened to the Israelite was done by God and at his own time. Therefore Brethren, we should make haste while the sun shines!
Brethren a closer look at the negligent attitude of black people to TIME reveals that this is the single factor that make them to lose out on so many things. When a black person is invited to an occasion for instance and he happen to come late, the excuse he will give is that he is working on “African time”. Tell me brethren, does Africa have its own time or do we have our own God that is different from the only God of host? Please brethren, respect TIME and God’s time in your life will never pass you by. In Genesis 37, Joseph arrived in time surrendering himself to God with all he has and had gone through; this was credited to him and he was raised from grass to grace above the rest. Tell me, will any of you reading this piece, pray to go through what Joseph went through? In Genesis 39, Joseph was imprisoned, came out from prison and became a leader, therefore, what is the problem that you have that is making you to ignore or disrespect time? When the time came in Genesis Chapters 44, 45, 46 & 47, Joseph revealed himself to his brothers saying “I am Joseph whom you sold to slavery"; he fed them and brought them to himself. He advised them on how to be good people and urged everyone to forget the past because it is God that brought him there ahead of time to be their saviour in their situation in order to give them new lease on life.
The immorality in the world today has become comparable to that of Sodom and Gomorrah. When the time came, God allowed a plague called HIV/AIDS in order to checkmate the world so that we can turn back to God and respect the Law that says one man one wife. Brethren weigh yourselves in all you are doing if you are respecting time or wasting away time. For instance one that God has destined to travel to Togo for a reason, decided to embark on a journey to Canada, all the years this person will spend in Canada will amount to a waste, and therefore he may come out blaming God due to his lack of respect for God’s time in his life. Can any one judge God? No, rather God is the one to judge both the living and the dead. If a student does not get promoted to the next class, then it is time for the student to study harder, read all the important books, if not he will fail and see his contemporary being promoted; though they may still be friends but not classmates. Brethren, can you now weigh yourself if you are about to waste your time or if you have already wasted it, being friends is different from being mates. Dig deep into the Bible in Numbers 11 vs. 1 - 35, Moses sent ten spies to the land they were to posses, they came back with frightening news that they are like ants besides the inhabitants of the land. But Joshua and Caleb have seen all God Almighty is capable of doing during their journey and knew that the same God Lord will help them conquer the Canaanites. Therefore, what is that trouble in your life that God cannot see you through with? All you need to do is to use your God’s given time well and all that looks mountainous before you will be brought down in Jesus name, AMEN! In Joshua 1 vs. 1 - 9, Joshua was promoted at the right time because that was the time God designed for him. If all of you wait on God’s time, your promotion will come and all your heart desire will be granted unto you, all you need to do is to purge yourself with absolute submission of your body and soul to God Almighty. Read Matthew 9 vs. 20, Ephesians 4 vs.23, Joel 12 vs. 12 &13; I Timothy 2 vs. 9, I Timothy 6 vs. 1 - 12 and Psalm 49 vs. 6end.
Looking at the world today, everyone is struggling to become a millionaire without checking their foundation; because foundation matters a lot as stated in the books of I Corinthians 3 particularly 10 plus; I Timothy 3; I Timothy 6; Romans 8; Job 1 vs. 1-10; Ezekiel 16 vs. 44, Micah 3; Micah 2 vs. 1-10 and Malachi 1 vs. 6-12. All that the bible said is already coming to pass, the car rental companies asked the scientists to make a compass (GPS) in order to boost sales. This day in age the computer technology has taken over the running of the economy, now the time has come that the same technology is destroying the Global Economy as it is rendering people jobless, the job that 5 people were doing previously is today being done by a single computer system. The scientists have actually gone a bit farther now that they think by cloning human embryo they can create their own designer babies. What a fast pace but still God is supreme because they can never be faster than time. Parent these days are getting their children into very early school, therefore forcing them into early adulthood, forgetting that God in his word, the holy Bible said that for everything there is a season, time to born and time to die, time to sow and time to Harvest.
In conclusion therefore, I want you all to start thinking now as to where you belong because we all will carry the tag RIP at a stage, which is either Rest in Peace or Rest in Pieces.Think about this Brethren and chose today if you are willing to work with God’s time or if you want to create your own time. Remember II Samuel 14 Vs.14; Genesis 3 vs.19, Psalm49 vs.6-15 said from dust were we made and unto dust shall we return. All things will come to an end and there will come a time when our beautiful portrait will no longer suit the living room but the attic".
Until next week when I shall visit with you again, please remain blessed and have a fruitful week ahead. To the joy of mankind, the United States of America's presidential election outcome was as anticipated, to God be the glory!
