– Jimmy Odukoya In an interview with BBC News Pidgin, Odukoya stated that he has scriptural backing for his appearance and the things he does. He said, “God has called me into this new season of my life. This new position is a big responsibility. All of my focus is here (on the church). As for my dreads, most people don’t know I can back up everything I do with scripture. “If you say I’m wrong to keep my hair as a pastor, I can tell you that God told Samson not to cut his hair in the Bible. That means long hair is not a bad thing. Also, if you say the pastor is keeping beard, I can tell you that the Bible says that when Jesus was tortured, they pulled hair from his face. “If you say this pastor is putting on earrings, I can tell you that in the book of Exodus, when the children of Israel got out of Egypt and wanted to do golden calf, they collected jewelry, rings, and earrings from their sons and daughters. “Anybody can do what they want. A personal opinion is different fro...

THE BIBLE SPEAKS DAILY (21092023). TODAY'S VERSE: ISAIAH 41:10. "...Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand..." THE FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND. "One night I dreamed a dream. I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord. When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand and to my suprise, I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. That always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma. "Lord, you told me when I decided to follow You, You would would walk and talk with me all the way. But, I'm aware that during the most troubl...

THE BIBLE SPEAKS DAILY (20092023) Today's Verse: Lamentations 3:26 "...It is good that one should hope and wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord..." WAITING QUIETLY. It is our duty always, and will be our comfort and satisfaction, to hope and sincerely seek for the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ. Afflictions do and will work very much for our good: many have found it good to bear this yoke in their youth; it has made many humble and serious, and has weaned them from the world, who otherwise would have become proud and unruly.  If tribulation works patience, and patience works experience, then experience makes a hope that makes not ashamed! Have you noticed most of our time in this world is spent in waiting? We wait standing in line for our turn at the Bus Terminals, we wait for Exam results, and we wait for the Lord’s Day. Though we wait, but time passes away slowly! Waiting is a big part of life. It becomes overwhelming when we’re in distress. Somet...

The Bible Speaks Daily (19092023) Today's Verse James 2:1-4. Beware Of Personal Favoritism "My Brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality. For if there should come into your Assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes, and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, “You sit here in a good place,” and say to the poor man, “You stand there,” or, “Sit here at my footstool,” have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?..." In my 65 years of experience, I have encountered several very wealthy individuals. I have been in the presence of many Celebrities and a few multi-billionaire Businessmen and Politicians.  I have seen the honor, respect, even the reverence, these individuals seem to command from the society, the masses, and in the churches.  Many of us may have fallen into this entra...
