It seems Cynthia Morgan is battle ready for Queen Ure, even if its on social media. Waiting for queen Ure's response which I very much doubt since the matter is in court, but this is getting even more interesting.

Can God Be Trusted?

This is the season when the merchants of God tell tall tales about him. They tell us to trust God for all kinds of things this New Year. They tell us God will buy us cars; he will build us houses; he will even buy our pastors jets so they can evangelise and save the world. But these motivational preachers, who often require down-payments for God’s promises in their bank accounts, are snake-oil salesmen and women. What they conveniently fail to tell us is the truth that God cannot be trusted to fulfil our vanities.

Be careful what you trust God for. Otherwise, you will conclude that God is not trustworthy. God is often not inclined to do what we want. His thoughts are not amenable to our vainglories. His ways are not conducive to our pride of life.

Don’t buy the lie. God was not in Christ reconciling the world to himself. (2 Corinthians 5:19). It is the world that must be reconciled to God. God says to man: “Not your will but mine be done.” He says: “Not your method but mine. Not your timing but mine.” Can we trust God enough to accept this? God will only act when he chooses to act. He will only do things his way. That makes him untrustworthy to the Frank Sinatras who want things their way.

“As for me,” says the psalmist, “I trust in you, O LORD; I say, ‘You are my God. My times are in your hand.” (Psalm 31:14-15).

Commanding God

As a new believer, I was misled by a King James Bible translation that reads: “Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his maker, ‘Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.’” (Isaiah 45:11). I went round barking commands at God in the altar of prayer. It took me a while to realise that the correct translation means the exact oppose of that KJV version: “The LORD, the holy God of Israel, the one who shapes the future, says: ‘You have no right to question me about my children or to tell me what I ought to do!’”

God cannot be trusted to fulfil our dreams. He cannot be trusted to fulfil our purposes. The fact that you want a car does not mean you can trust God to get one for you. God can only be trusted to fulfil his promises. He cannot be trusted to fulfil our agendas. That is why it is important to have a relationship with God. That way, we can hold God to the promises he makes to us and not even assume the promises he made to others in biblical days automatically apply to us. When we

*Beverly's card
An army of angry Facebook and Twitter followers have matched on Gospel singer Maheeda, ex-Big Brother Africa house mate Beverly Osu and actresses Juliet Ibrahim and Adaora Ukoh for posting X-rated Christmas cards of themselves.


The war of comments have been raging for more than forty eight hours since Maheeda; a Gospel artist released her version of the 2013 Christmas card to her fans; a gift that was immediately word-bombed and hurled back at her. The other celebrities had quickly followed suit with their cards.
