Reps okay Buhari’s decision to scrutinise budget before signing

Contrary to expectations, President Muhammadu Buhari’s decision to scrutinise the 2016 budget as passed and transmitted to him by the National Assembly has been accepted by the leadership of the House of Representatives.
Chairman of House of Representatives Committee on Media, Abdulrazak Namdas, in an interview, yesterday said that the lower House had no problems with the president taking another look at the budget.
“There shouldn’t be a problem with the president looking at the budget line by line. Our duty in the National Assembly is to work on the budget and to send the document as passed. We have also promised to send the president the details of the budget in two weeks and this we shall do”, Namdas said.
The House of Representatives passed the 2016 budget of N6.06trillion into law following a motion by the Chairman of House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations, Abdulmumin Jibrin.
Buhari had said in Washington last Thursday that he would not sign the 2016 Appropriation Bill into law until he took a look at every single detail of the document passed by the National Assembly on Wednesday, March 23.
The president had presented the 2016 national budget before a joint session of the National Assembly, comprising the Senate and the House of Representatives, on December 22, 2015.
Soon after, it was dogged by allegations and counter-allegations, including claims that it was missing or padded. The president’s statement that he would scrutinise the budget came
as a surprise. This was because the National Assembly which had severally dismissed claims that it would pad the budget, also stated that for the first time, it reduced the total sum of the budget by N17 billion.
This was even as it told the press that it did not tinker with parts of the budget considered to be top priority to the president. Speaking with National Assembly correspondents immediately after
the passage of the budget, the Joint Committee on Appropriations said it was the first time since 1999 the country was witnessing a reduction in aggregate expenditure.
Jubrin, who first spoke on behalf of the committee, said though the budget estimates were huge, contrary to widely held belief that the National Assembly would add to it N17 billion was reduced from the initial estimates.
“We all know the challenges that accompanied this bill and often times, with overheads being most contentious. We engaged the executive and the Budget Office on it because we also discovered that
several critical items were not in the budget. We had to allocate funds to those areas.
“We also had to tilt some allocations in favour of security, anti corruption drive in order to strike a balance with the policy thrust of the government,” he said.

MTN launches SunStream for mobile devices

MTN South Africa has launched its new promotional package featuring World Panel’s SunStream which allows users to stream electricity from the sun directly into their mobile devices.
The new bundle was announced at an event in Mthatha with executives from MTN and World Panel Inc. present. The event was held outside the MTN store at Mthatha Plaza with product demonstrations and branded promotions.
The MTN/SunStream bundle carries an MSRP of R219 and includes a SunStream and free airtime on the MTN network. This promotional package is available at MTN stores in Mthatha and the SunStream expected to roll out across South Africa.
“The SunStream was developed with exactly this customer in mind: someone who views their mobile device as a lifeline, but lacks the power to keep it charged,” said Hennie Botha, World Panel’s Managing Director for South Africa.
“The reliable, affordable power offered by the SunStream can be a game-changer, and we are therefore pleased to launch this bundle with MTN.”
World Panel’s SunStream product line was introduced in late 2015 after years in development. Built to international standards, the new technology bypasses the need for chipsets or PC boards, which are notorious for breakage on typical solar charging devices. The highly durable SunStream products can charge most feature phones at or near the same speed as a wall plug and can perform even while submerged in water.

UK Government replies to Nnamdi Kanu’s plea for intervention

Following the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu’s call on the British Government for intervention in his case, the United Kingdom has responded by saying it has been visiting the arrested and detained leader in prison.
The spokesman for the British High Commission, Mr. Joe Abuku in an email to news agency, Punch, revealed the development.
The British High Commission in a statement said; “We have provided assistance to Mr. Kanu since his arrest in October last year, including visiting him regularly in prison and attending court appearances in an observational capacity.”
This comes in response to the plea statement released by the IPOB leader through his lawyer which reads in part; “It is repeating the obvious to state that our client is a full British citizen, by virtue of which position he is entitled to all rights, privileges and protection, guaranteed under the British laws and conventions.”

Mention the day I will die-El-Rufai hits back at Apostle Suleiman

The executive Governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-Rufai, has hit back at Apostle Johnson Suleiman, challenging him to mention the day he will die.
The Apostle had cause quite a stir when he had boldly proclaimed that the Governor will die (see here). This was as a result of the controversial Anti-Preaching bill that the Kaduna state Governor wants implemented in the state.
El-Rufai in an interview tries to explain in what context the bill is to be enforced amongst other things.You can read excerpts of the interview below.
One of your policies that has generated a lot of controversy is the religious preaching bill. What does the government want to achieve when it becomes law and how are you going to tackle the anxiety that it has generated among the people?
Kaduna State, more than any state in Nigeria, if you take out the Yobe, Borno and Adamawa axis,  which suffered from Boko Haram insurgency, has suffered the most from death and destruction of property due to misuse and abuse of religion. More people have been killed in Kaduna from the words that people have said. And if you go back in history to when the Maitasine incident happened; he was a Cameroonian that came to Nigeria and started preaching. The Emir of Kano had him deported back to Cameroon. After that, he managed to smuggle himself back again and continued preaching. He was preaching a version of Islam that was intolerant, a version that called other Muslims pagans and so on. But in spite of what he was preaching, he acquired followers and we all know what happened. Military operation had to be mounted to flush them out. Those that escaped from the Maitasine crisis moved to Borno State and started the Kalakato sect, which again led to many deaths and destruction in the early 1990s. All these came from people that were not trained in religious matters, people that woke up and started preaching and acquiring followers and inevitably their sects grew in large numbers to threaten communities and there were clashes.
That was also how Muhammed Yusuf started. He was a student of Sheik Jaafar Adam in Kano. They fell out because Jaafar felt that some of the views he was expressing were extreme and intolerant. He went and started his own sect and we all know what happened and we are still dealing with it.
Thus, when you have such things happening in your country, I think as leaders, we have to sit down and examine ourselves and the society and see what  we can do to prevent it.
In my opinion, it is the lack of regulation of religion that led to all these circles of death and destruction. Just recently, we had the Shi’ite problem in Zaria, following a similar pattern.
I believe that before you start preaching in any religion, you should have gone through a system of education, training and some kind of certification. Even those that deal with the physical life get certified, let alone those that deal with the spiritual life. We initiated this bill from the Kaduna State Security Council, based on reports of new sects emerging in Kaduna State.
Are there recent cases?
There is one around Makarfi called Gausiyya, they do their Zuhr prayer around 11am, different from other Muslims. This is how this thing starts and if you don’t resolve it quickly, it grows into something else.
A woman in Makarfi said Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was speaking to her and sick people started going to her for their healing. The husband of this woman was busy collecting N1,000 as consultancy fee before people could see his wife. We had to take steps to end that movement because before you know it, people would start coming from far and wide and this woman would become our next problem.
It was the report of two or three of these that compelled us in the security council to ask the question, whether or not there was a law that regulates preaching. Then we were told there was a law; since 1984 after the Maitasine problems, the administration   passed the law. It was subsequently amended several times to increase the fine and the imprisonment term. This is a living problem and we know it. Christian priests, the ones I know, go to seminary and spend so many years there, study under a more experienced Reverend to learn what to say and what not to say.
Religious leaders don’t preach hatred; they preach peace, tolerance and love. But today in my religion of Islam, anybody can wake up and start a sect; there is no control. In those days, from Islamiyya School, if you chose that line, you needed to study more books. After that, you would go to the East (Borno area) for more studies and training. Then from there, you would go to a mosque and begin to call people to prayer before you become an imam in any mosque. Before you became an imam of a Friday mosque, the community must agree that you were well learned and competent. But now, everyone can build a mosque, put up loudspeakers, call himself an imam and start disturbing people at night.
A priest that has gone through thorough teachings and training would not go and ask people to cause trouble and kill each other. They are trained men of God. In Christendom today, we all know that some people would drink something overnight and wake up the next day and claim they are apostles, that God had spoken to them. You could not disproof that because you were not there with him and he would start to collect followers. When he begins to preach hatred, what can you do? Is it the society we want? This is the question. The logic behind this law is to strengthen the 1984 laws so as to regulate and ensure that those that are given the opportunity to preach at least know what they are doing, they have a level of responsibility to develop the society rather than divide it. This is our goal; we don’t have anything against any religion or anybody.
What about freedom of religion?
Some people have argued that there is freedom of religion, of course; Section 38 is very clear: We must not have a state religion, every Nigerian is allowed to practise their faith or even if they  do not have any religion  at all. However, those that are quoting Section 38 of the constitution conveniently forget Section 45 which says that you can regulate any human right if it would affect the right of others. You can practise your religion but you can’t do it in a way that abuses the right of another. There is nothing in this law that is not in conformity with the constitution, or there is nothing new about it other than expanding the scope and after we sent the bill to the House of Assembly, I saw an article that alerted us of what we did not include: Blocking of federal highways, but that is in the Penal Code. It is good to have put it there because every Friday you see most mosques blocking roads. Why? We had to call them to a meeting to have a system that police would be there to guard and also control the traffic. In my opinion, this is a law that we need not only in Kaduna State but almost all states in Nigeria and I want to assure you that, I just came back from the National Economic Council meeting, and a handful of the governors asked me to send them our own law because they thought they also needed it in their state. Everybody is watching to see how we will handle our own. We sent it to the state assembly in October 2015 because some people are saying we sent it because of the Shi’ite problem. No! It was the state assembly that kept on looking at it and saying this one ‘na hot potato’ until now. But, on a very serious note, we don’t have any ulterior motive other than to put a framework that would ensure that Kaduna State people live in peace with everyone practising their religion and disallowing every Tom, Dick and Harry to come and say he can preach.
What will be the major role of the government in this?
We do not regulate as such, we have formed two committees that would issue the licence. It is not the government that will issue the licence. It is a committee of Christian umbrella bodies and Muslim umbrella bodies. We will just have an inter-ministerial committee to be checking once in a while and be keeping records because we want to know who is preaching here and who is doing what there. For us, the reaction was just disproportionate and many of the people that are talking about the law have never even read it. If you read that law, it is very short; it is 16 sections. I tell people who disagree with the bill to read it and tell me what they don’t like about it. Don’t tell me you don’t like the entire law because we know we have a problem and I am the governor and I need a solution. Don’t say the solution is not to have the law; we need the law but tell me what you don’t like, then we can discuss it. We want to find a solution that brings peace. We are not fixed in our position, what we are fixed about is that Kaduna State people must live in peace and everyone must be allowed to practise their religion without hindrance. We took an oath of office to do that. Apart from that, every other thing can be discussed. Are you telling me it is okay for someone to put up speakers in the night and start making a noise, be it Islam or Christianity, disturbing people? Is that okay? Which chapter in the two holy books says that Jesus or Muhammad (SAW) did that. Are we not trying to copy them? Are they not the perfections of both our religions? Jesus said, ‘Give to God what is God’s and to Caesar what is Caesar’s.’ Government is the Caesar.
We have informed the Christian Association of Nigeria and the Jama’atu Nasril Islam that if they have problems with any section, if there is anything to be done, and if they don’t want the government to be involved, we will remove it, but they must regulate.
What is your take on the assumption by some in the state that hold that the bill is aimed at stopping the practice of Christianity and Islam in the state?
I have not seen anyone talking about Islam actually. Most of the people that say I would die, as if I would not die, are people who call themselves Christian clergy. Of course, I will die. If that apostle is truly an apostle, he should mention the day I will die. There is nothing in that law that prevents or infringes the practice of religion. It seeks to ensure that those that preach religion are qualified, trained and certified by their peers to do it. And some sections of the media have made it as if the law was drafted against Christianity. It is most irresponsible and I have nothing to say except to leave the matter to God.

BlackBerry dumps $1 privacy, control subscription in BBM, all features now free

BlackBerry has announced its latest move to remain relevant: making all the privacy and control features within its BBM messaging app completely free to use.
The company first launched its Retract and Timer features within the cross-platform BBM app back in 2014, and though they were free to use initially they later represented part of the Canadian company’s $1 monthly premium subscription plan. The features are fairly self-explanatory — with Retract, you can later remove text or photos from a message thread so that they are no long visible to anybody in a conversation. And with Timer, you can set how long something is visible for in advance. The company later added more features to the premium mix, including the ability to launch anonymous private chats and edit messages.
Once a major player in the mobile phone realm, BlackBerry has been struggling in the hardware realm for a while and has been slowly moving away from its own operating system to embrace those that have emerged as the dominant forces in the mobile phone world — namely, Android and iOS.
Indeed, BlackBerry recently launched its first Android phone, and it plans to launch more before the year is out. But before all that came to fruition, the company opened up BBM beyond BlackBerry way back in 2013, as the company strove to capitalize on what was one of its most popular services. To monetize BBM, the company tried its hand at monthly subscriptions, but it now appears to have completely ditched its monthly the Privacy & Control subscription tier altogether. It is keeping some subscriptions going though, including “Sticker Club,” “No Ads,” and “Custom Pin.”
What’s perhaps most telling about this latest move is that BlackBerry is pushing for more users in what has become a competitive and converged space. WhatsApp recently passed one billion monthly users, Facebook Messenger topped 800 million users, while new(ish) kid on the block Telegram flew past 100 million users. Many of these popular apps are increasingly embracing privacy-focused features and, when you throw into the mix upstarts such as Janus Friis-backed Wire which is going all-in on encryption too, BBM’s proposition suddenly looks less appealing.
The bottom line is there are just too many messaging apps out there, and though BBM will no doubt still have a lot of dedicated users, it has to explore new ways of keeping people interested — and part of this plan includes giving more privacy and control features to everyone by default.

President Buhari arrives Abuja from Washington DC [PHOTOS]

President Muhammadu Buhari is back into the country after participating at the 4th edition of Nuclear Security Summit in Washington DC, United States.
The presidential jet touched down at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja at the early hours of Monday.
He was received by the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase and other prominent Nigerians

A theatrical “jihad” offers Belgians some comic relief, pokes fun at jihadists' racism

THE provocation starts with the show’s title: Djihad, the French spelling for jihad. Three young Belgian Muslim men, Ben, Reda, and Ismaël set out to travel to Syria. Each was born in Brussels; each has been brought to despair by their failed lives in Europe. Each expects to find meaning by embarking on a holy war, killing infidels and building the Islamic State.
Despite the serious subject, the hit Brussels play is a comedy, poking fun at the characters’ racism, anti-Semitism and ignorance. The three jihadists bumble their way through security at the Brussels Airport. They make it to Turkey, and from there to Syria. But disillusion soon sets in. As a child, Ismaël adored the comic-books of a character called Bob The Sponge. Yet the more religious Reda tells him that drawing is anti-Islamic, and that the artists are infidels. Ben is shocked. “Even the guy who drew Bob The Sponge?” The audience erupts in laughter. Another taboo is rock and roll music. Ben grew up as a fan of Elvis Presley, dreaming of becoming a rock star. In Syria, this attachment becomes dangerous, and not only because of Presley’s subversive music. “Did you know his name is Elvis Aaron Presley?” Reda asks. “He was Jewish.”
In “Djihad”, truth becomes distorted—and dangerous. Caught between the world of the West and the world of Islam, Ismaël cannot become an artist, cannot become a rock ‘n roller. Reda's parents reject his Catholic girlfriend. The disillusioned, ignorant Islamists end up witnessing and participating in carnage. And in a frightening rehash of current events, they return to Belgium as homegrown terrorists.
Originally scheduled for just five performances in December 2014, “Djihad” has continued on tour ever since, playing to packed houses in Belgium and France. Reviews have been gushing. It was broadcast on Belgian television last November just after the attacks in Paris. More than 47,000 people had seen it live, including 25,000 high school students, making a giant hit. The play is funny and moving at the same time. Though it skirts with stereotypes and a few scenes suffer from a little wooden acting, for the most part it moves along a good clip, never boring or overtly moralising—a gripping presentation of tortured souls caught between two worlds, rejected by both.
At a recent performance, students—most from a Muslim background—filled the Le Public theatre in Brussels. Once the show ended, Ismael Saïdi, “Djihad”’s playwright who also plays Ismaël, held a cathartic hour-long discussion with them. The 39-year-old elaborated on the elements of the play that were drawn from personal experience; Reda Chebchoubi (who plays the character of the same name) had a Catholic girlfriend who was rejected by his parents. When Mr Chebchoubi's parents saw the play, they winced at the unflinching portrayal of their closed-mindedness. Mr Saïdi also believes he escaped a jihadist fate by going to a school outside his neighbourhood. “Education is the only way to prevent radicalisation,” he says.
He had performed the play the night before the recent Brussels bombings, and sees the need to continue performing the play in Belgium and France. A Dutch version recently opened in Amsterdam. It has not yet been translated into or performed in English, but Mr Saïdi dreams of taking it to Britain and America in the future. The West has heard plenty about ghettoes like Belgium’s Molenbeek and the radicalisation of Muslims in Europe. This is another facet of home-grown European Islam—funny, critical and self-aware—that not only Belgians and Dutchmen but Brits and Americans need to see.

Booze might be good for you. What does alcohol really do in the body?

Do you know some people actually map out plans on how to drown themselves in alcohol? Some have taken alcohol to be their sleeping elixir, which it’s not quite–ask a professional in the medical field. We have all established the fact that alcohol does more harm than good to our health–so how bad exactly? What is even good about it? Let’s discuss.
The bad. Let’s count how much calories you consume
If you’re trying to lose weight or get in shape or not trying to get that funny looking bloated stomach (men at the beer parlour kind of stomach) which type of alcohol should you order? In terms of sheer calorie count, beer has the most — about 150 calories. However, if you opt for light beer, that’s about 100 calories, which is about the same as a serving of wine or liquor. Beer usually has around 10 to 20 grams of carbs (although strong, sweet beers have more), while lagers and stouts have the least (around 6 to 11 grams). If wine is your thing, a glass of red only has two grams of carbohydrates, and keep in mind that drier wines will have fewer carbs and sugar. Hard liquor actually comes in at zero sugar and carbs. That might seem like a win, but it all depends how you drink it.
Maybe the good. Your brain loves the booze and might benefit from it
Let’s be honest, going overboard on drinks can make your brain feel foggy at best, or short a few brain cells at worst. But, keep your bar tab under control and you might actually be doing your brain a favor. Drinking moderate amounts of alcohol throughout your life can actually ward off cognitive decline and improve brain function. A study found that of the 489 women studied, moderate drinkers scored higher than abstinent women or heavy drinkers on a “Decline in cognition is usually due to the brain not receiving enough oxygen,” an expert explained on the cognitive functioning test.
Another good? Alcohol might prevent you from having stroke
Something good might just come out of your moderate alcohol gulps. Alcohol’s blood thinning effect can help ward off strokes. An expert explains that there are two types of strokes: ischemic, when a blood clot stops blood from going to parts of the brain, and hemorrhagic, when the brain bleeds too much. Around 80 percent of strokes are ischemic, which is where alcohol comes in. Moderate drinking helps reduce the clotting of blood, so there’s less of a possibility of a blood vessel being clogged. And then even if a clot does happen, alcohol can help with fibrinolysis, which is the dissolution of the clot.
The bad news. Alcohol doesn’t actually make you sleep well
If you imbibe before bed, you might help yourself nod off, but you’re not doing your body any favors in the long run. “Alcohol may help you sleep now, but you’ll likely pay for it by being wakeful later,” an expert explains. Boozy beverages can disrupt what’s known as sleep homeostasis, the process that helps your body regulate sleep, according to research in the journal, Alcohol. While alcohol is a somnogen, or sleep inducer, it can also disrupt you in the middle of the night. Then there’s the fact that relying on alcohol to help you sleep can lead to problems down the road. What tends to happen is that alcohol works less and less well as a sleep aid over time, so we respond by increasing the amount we are drinking.
The worse. Binge drinking
Binge drinking is “a pattern of drinking that brings blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels to 0.08.” That’s about four or more drinks for women and five or more drinks for men within about two hours. In the study, researchers discovered binge drinkers had bacterial DNA in their bloodstreams, which was a sign bacteria had leaked out from the gut. They also discovered elevated endotoxin present in the blood, which means toxins had been released from cells after cell walls were damaged by booze. The consequences: These toxins could lead to fever, tissue destruction and inflammation, which is tied to a host of health problems from cancer to depression. It sounds scary, but avoiding these issues is pretty simple if you live by the words for God sake “It’s all about moderation.”
So, I hope you make better choices this weekend and the next…or every time you have the chance to drink.

Simple ways to conquer emotional cravings and its bad implication

Do you know there is a link between emotional cravings and your health? We all know there’s an emotional component to weight gain and loss. Why else would we crave fattening comfort foods over celery sticks when we’re stressed? But according to a recent national survey, only 10 percent of people thought that psychological wellbeing was their biggest barrier to weight loss.
Instead, some 60 percent of respondents blamed poor food choices and lack of exercise for sabotaging their diets. Well, if we focus on being emotionally healthy first, everything else can fall into place.
Let look at three ways we can overcome emotional eating for good:
1) Keep a food journal
People roll their eyes at me when I suggest keeping a “food and feelings” journal. It doesn’t have to be super serious, but it’s helpful to detect a pattern. If you only order pizza after a heated argument with your partner, it tells you that you’re angry. It also shows you that you eat pizza to suppress anger. You might be surprised at what your journal reveals.
2) Pay attention to those cravings
If your mind is saying ‘I have to have those chips,’ that’s your clue that something else is going on in your body and it is not hunger. Are you bored? Aggravated? Need a little carb-y comfort? You’re probably not responding to your body’s pure hunger cues. It’s amazing the number of emotions we can attach to food.
3) Those little changes count
Maybe it’s substituting water for your lunchtime mineral or taking the stairs to your office once a week. The key, is to make changes realistic and incremental. “If you can do one small change a week, by the end of the year, you’ve made 52 changes, and that can transform your life.” You’ll also start to feel better about yourself — which will help you tackle both your food and fitness goals.

5 health benefits of eating banana flowers

Love eating bananas? Now try banana flowers!

  

Banana is an excellent weaning food and is an instant source of energy . Apart from the fruit, the banana leaves are also widely used. Eating on banana leaves is a South Indian tradition, and banana stem can be used to lose weight.  But do you know the banana flower has as many benefits as the fruit, leaves and stem?
Banana flowers are widely used in Maharashtrian cuisine. The banana flower is made into a sabzi or a stir fry that can be eaten with chapattis or dal rice and tastes like heaven. Although a little tedious to make as it involves a lot of peeling, the banana flower should be part of the diet because of its various health benefits.

1. Rich in dietary fibre—Banana flowers are an excellent source of fibre and as the fruit can prevent constipation. Because of their fibre content, they improve digestion and also promote bowel movements.
2. Rich in antioxidants—Banana flowers contain polyphenols which have antioxidant properties. These polyphenols can scavenge free radicals and prevent stress-related damage to the body
3. Can treat diabetes—The banana flower has a low glycemic index and with its high fibre and antioxidant content help in improving blood glucose levels and can be effective in managing diabetes.
4.  Can be used to treat diarrhoea and dysentry—A study published in the Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research says that banana flowers can also be used to treat diarrhea and dysentery.
5. Can relieve symptoms of menorrhagia—Banana flowers can also be used to treat abnormal and heavy bleeding during menstruation.

The Vibration of God is Strongest in Worship, Worship brings Wisdom and the Power for Prosperity

Posted by Enoch Tan

 

“God is Music. The Experienced Universe is a Song of Creation. In the Atmosphere of Worship, the Presence of God is so real. Concepts like “The Glory, The Greatness, The Majesty, The Wonders, and The Goodness” come alive in the moment of worship. A story of the past may just be something that can’t be experienced as real now. The linear perspective of what came before and what came after may not be enough for a mind that comprehends simultaneous time. But one can focus awareness on a particular area NOW and experience it NOW by feeling the Vibration of it NOW.

In the Atmosphere of Worship, the Vibration of God is felt NOW, and the Presence of God is experienced NOW. It is a very PRESENT REALITY. That Vibration is experienced as FEELING and that Feeling is Knowing, and it is a Knowing of REALITY.

The Vibration of God is the strongest in Worship. That is because that’s where His Presence is most tangible, The Glory is Most Glorious, and The Light is the Brightest.

The Vibration of God is the most subtle in the entire universe, and is therefore the most invisible. It is not apparent everywhere you see. But in the Atmosphere of Worship, the Vibration of God gets amplified and the opposite happens. It becomes the strongest and the most real Vibration of all. It is stronger than any other Vibrations of Light you can compare. The Vibration of God is so subtle that it is invisible in the Universal, but it becomes so PERSONAL when amplified in Worship. It is a divine paradox.

God is both Fully Universal and Fully PERSONAL at the same time. All it takes is to focus attention in the Right Way to activate the Right vibration to know the Personal.”

“There is a Presence that can be tangibly felt and experienced. It is the Presence that sweeps all over, washing us, saturating us with His Love, filling us with His Light.”

The Key to Experience the Fullness of God

“Praise opens the door to His Presence. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving in your heart. Enter His courts with praise. He lives in the presence of our praises. If you do not praise Him, you can’t see Him. Other beings who do not praise Him can’t see Him. They may look for Him but they cannot find Him. Therefore to them His Person is nonexistent. He exists outside of their range of perception. What you appreciate, appreciates. This is the Law of Attraction. Draw near to Him with your praises and He will draw near to you. His name is Jesus, and He is the Lord of lords, the Everlasting Father and the Fullness of God. Those that only praise God without the Name that is above every name would not experience His Fullness. There is a Song coming from the other side. Will you open your ears to it and sing with it? He is the Song of songs. He stands at the door and knocks. The door is your heart. Open the door and He will come in, and He will sup with you, and you with Him. He is Soul Food.“

“In the Presence of God all things are beautiful. Light is Sound, Music is Color. God is a Song, and the sweetest sound in the Universe is His Name: Jesus.”

“To worship is to “kiss the Lord”. It is a time of intimacy with God. It is a sacred act that needs a sacred space and a sacred state.”

Worshiping the Lord God brings the Highest Wisdom

Worship is a vibration. Even without saying a word, even without doing a thing, if you are internally appreciating God, you are worshiping Him. When you are reading His Word and you feel a sense of praise towards God, you are worshiping God. People generally talk about external acts as worship, but what’s happening internally is the essence of what’s going on. Whenever you FEEL good about God, you are worshiping God.

How to have wisdom that transcends the stars of heaven (other light beings that do not worship God)? You do that by worshiping God. The worship of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. Worshiping God gives you access to the wisdom of the Most High. Lucifer corrupted his wisdom by reason of his own brightness. That is why he no longer worships God, although he was created to be God’s original worship leader and equipped with all the musical instruments in Eden.

The Supreme Way to Attain 3 things: Grounding, Faith and Wisdom. 1. Ground yourself on the Solid Rock of All Ages – Jesus Christ. All other ground is less stable. No other foundation is as sturdy as Christ Jesus Himself. 2. Look to Jesus as the Author and Perfecter of your Faith. Faith to create reality comes easier when you focus on Him, the Source of Faith. 3. The Worship of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom. Solomon became the Wisest because he worshiped the Lord. Joseph, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego became Wiser than all other Magicians because they worshiped the Lord. Jesus has always been Source above all sources.

How to get into a state of HIGH vibration? How to get into the Vortex? Worship God, Praise Him! When you worship, every cell in your Being comes ALIVE, everything in your soul ALIGNS together in HARMONY, and your vibrational center is positioned to attract good into your life. Is worship is the need of an egoistic God? NO! Worship is for YOU to benefit. God delights in you to worship Him for YOUR sake. He wants You BLESSED, He want You WELL. This is the way to connect with Him personally. This is the way the Universe is originally designed. The morning stars sing for JOY, and All the Heavenly Hosts VIBRATE in tune with the PRAISES of the Most High.

Worship songs are love songs towards God. Just like there are love songs towards those whom you love, worship is love expressed to the greatest portion of your Self. You do relate to a loved one as another person don’t you? Likewise it is the same relationship between you and the Most High as a Person. Worship songs express love, thanks, honor, glory and exaltation. Although some beings have been divorced from that relationship with that greatest portion of Self, the Church is being reconciled with the LORD through Christ Jesus as the Bridegroom.

“The two books right in the center of the Bible are Psalms and Proverbs. The Heart of God and the Mind of God. Worship and Wisdom. Psalms comes before Proverbs. The fear (worship) of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom comes from Alignment with your Source.”

Worship brings Wisdom and the Power for Prosperity

“I wonder why is it that during moments of intense concentrated worship, my spirit senses and perceives many things of God and Heaven’s reality. But it seems fleeting and I seem to forget about those things at other times. There is a need to ground those energies so that the information in them remains a more constant experience in this reality.

During peak moments in worship, Heaven seems to open and all of Heaven’s bounty, the riches of His Glory can be tapped into and the flow can be directed into any desired areas of our lives. The frequencies of worship are not of this reality but that of Heaven, which is why we do not feel any of our earthly needs in that space. But it is not enough to just ascend into Heaven’s atmosphere during worship. We should also bring Heaven down into Earth as much as we can to make a Heaven on Earth as our reality. It is important to retain awareness of both realities and merge them during worship.

I also feel as though those who are living a life full of praise and worship seem to have a lot more magical power than many magicians out there who use all kinds of rituals that involve much effort and energy. Being plugged into your Source is the most important thing of all. Jesus is the Source.”

“If you bring the high praise unto Me, there will be a continual opening in the Heavens, spiraling upward, as you touch higher realms where even greater miracles are awaiting to manifest on the earth.”

– The Lord Jesus channeling a Rhema word through Renny Mclean (Eternity Invading Time)

“The Lord said to me, “If you want to feed a nation and if you want to feed a triple portion, you must dance.” The Lord said He would send us to feed nations, and He has been faithful to that promise; but it has come through an anointing to dance. Praising in the dance is powerful! In a positive sense, when our dance and our praise please the King, we can have whatever we want. Praise creates an atmosphere in which miracles happen.

“Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours” – Deuteronomy 11:24

I have found that if you dance on nations in the realm of the Spirit, God will also give you the opportunity to dance on them physically. Is it powerful? It’s powerful. You can stand in your hometown and possess nations. Dancing is one of the most effective ways to do it.

There is power in the dance. There’s an anointing for the nations. You’ll find that you have an anointing to feed nations as you begin to dance more before the Lord. Don’t let a day go by that you don’t dance. Praise the Lord in the dance. Let that anointing go from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. Praise the Lord in the dance!”

Six signs you have a serious sexual problem

It is important to know when something is wrong with your sex life, as early intervention could save you.

  Sex issues that need help

Sex is supposed to be fun, and also an intimate way to connect with a partner. This does not mean it doesn't come with its own set of challenges.
While some sexual challenges can be solves easily with the right tools, others usually need medical intervention or even therapy. Below are 6 kinds of sex problems that requires help.
#1 Persistent problems. If you experience a hard time “getting up” or getting hard, and this problem persists for two weeks or more, this is a sign that there could be a deeper underlying issue that needs to be looked at by a professional. This is the same for other performance-related issues that are out of your control.
#2 Painful. Sex should give you pleasure. If you feel unusual pain when you’re having sex, chances are, you *and/or your partner* have health-related problems. Consulting a therapist can help you find the best medical-based advice on what positions will best lessen the pain, what positions and deeds are most comfortable, and what techniques you can employ to make the most of your time in bed.

#3 No climax. Maybe you don’t have a partner and you’re used to having a go at it on your own. Then suddenly, you find yourself not reaching climax. Again, if this problem is persistent for a few months, or each time you masturbate, this can be due to an underlying issue that an expert can help sort out for you.
#4 Sex arguments. It may start with casual teasing about how your partner slept on you as you were about to do the deed…but then it happens again and again—so much so that you start to bicker about it. If you are arguing about your sex life and are complaining about it, it can help to seek a therapist before your problems in bed overflow to other aspects of your relationship.
#5 Unsatisfactory sex life. While you may both be very polite or don’t want your sex life to be the main drive for your happiness in your relationship, having one *or both* partners dissatisfied in the bedroom is a recipe for disaster. Maybe you or your partner is having erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation and you don’t want to tell the other party about it, or you are experiencing trouble reaching orgasm. This means you need help.
#6 Strained relationships. If your sexual performance and intimacy issues are causing a strain in your relationship, this is also a good reason to bring in an expert. Maybe you’re not having as much sex as you used to, or you are not performing well in bed, and this is causing your partner a great deal of frustration or disappointment that carries over, out of the bedroom. After all, a lack of sex can cause distance between couples and cause frequent bickering. If you want to save your relationship and enjoy sex with your partner again, you really should go see someone

It ups your immunity.

Ejaculation increases levels of the hormone cortisol. Cortisol, which usually gets a bad rap as a havoc-wrecking stress hormone, actually helps regulate and maintain your immunity in the small doses. Masturbation can produce the right environment for a strengthened immune system.

It boosts your mood.

Masturbating releases a slew of feel-good neurochemicals like dopamine and oxytocin that lift your spirits, boost your satisfaction, and activate the reward circuits in your brain.
“An orgasm is the biggest non-drug blast of dopamine available,” says Brame. “A brain scan of someone having an orgasm looks like a heroin addict’s.”

Masturbation for Men: The best way to touch yourself for optimal pleasure

You might not be getting the most pleasure from your masturbation session.

  Masturbation

Most men masturbate. And a lot of men believe they are doing things right as long as they orgasm. But did you know you can get much more pleasure than you ever imagined by making a few changes in your style?

RisingMaster shares 10 ways to make masturbation even better.

1. Put your other hand to good use; Even at the basic level, you can still spice things up by using your other hand. Here are some ideas:

Try only using your other hand once in a while.

Try using both hands at the same time. If you can put them one next to the other on your shaft, then lucky for you and any girl you meet. But if not, you can try holding your penis in-between both palms pressed together.

You can use one hand to move up and down the shaft while the other plays with the head of your penis.

Wringing is a great double-handed technique. Imagine wringing the water out of a cloth by squeezing your hands in opposite directions. Just be a bit more gentle with yourself!

2. Your balls: Your balls are more than just an odd-shaped storage facility. They’re an erogenous zone which you can use to heighten your orgasms. It’s up to you to work out the best way to masturbate by including your testicles; all guys are different, but here are some suggestions:

Pull them slightly downwards while masturbating.

Try caressing, stroking or tickling them – experiment to see what and where feels good.

Try just holding them in a light but firm grip with the other hand.

3. Find your erogenous zones: If you think the best way to masturbate is all about your penis, and maybe your balls, then think again. It’s a popular belief that only women are blessed with multiple erogenous zones. However, the truth is that your body is far more sensitive than you might think.

For example, try touching your nipples in the way that you would a woman’s. Experiment with different strokes, pressure and movements. Try caressing the inside of your thighs or your stomach. If there’s anywhere that you know you’re sensitive, don’t be afraid to explore yourself further with touch. Some guys will be more sensitive than others in different areas, so it’s up to you to find out what works for you. There are no rules, so get to know your own body and find out what floats your boat.

4. The Perineum: The Perineum is the area in-between your anus and balls. It’s a soft padded area which is sensitive to touch. You can try caressing it or pushing it gently with your spare hand.

5. Different Positions: If you just sit in your favorite chair or lie on your bed, you’re not going to get anywhere near simulating sex. Here are 3 ways you can use your body more effectively:

Hold your penis under your body, lying on your bed on top of your hand. Then thrust into your hand.

Try kneeling or standing and thrusting into your hand. The idea is to keep your hand still and use your body to move.

Change positions from time to time: kneeling, standing, sitting, swapping hands or anything you can think of to add variety.

6. Lube up: Lubricant is also an awesome addition to the repertoire of self-pleasure techniques.

Whether you’re using a toy or just your hands, lubricant will get you another important step closer to the real thing. A real vagina is wet and slippery, so a dry palm is a poor imitation of that amazing experience.

Lubricant also makes it easier to stimulate the head of your penis, and of course explore your anus if you so desire.

7. Porn: Movies can be great if used the right way; they can also be damaging if used without any thought.

Rushing masturbation can be a killer of your future sexual performance. And one thing which is sure to increase your arousal is your favorite movie. If you just switch it on, get yourself as excited as possible and rush to climax, you’re unfortunately training yourself to be a future ‘one minute man’.

However, if you use it as a tool when learning how to masturbate in a controlled way, then it’s a great way to test your ability to keep relaxed and calm.

8. Start and Stop: In terms of techniques, the start and stop method is a really good way to masturbate. The simple version is that you set yourself a time, for example 30 minutes, and you don’t allow yourself to ejaculate until that time is up.

Sound painful?

Well it can be, but not as much as the pain of the embarrassment of coming within 2 minutes every time you have sex.

9. Breathe and Relax: This is more of a side dish to the main course of masturbation techniques. And again it’s on the theme of learning self-control.

Breathing slowly and deeply whilst keeping your body relaxed is a useful skill to learn when masturbating.

The reason being that tension and over-excitement will extinguish your sexual performance faster than a fireman’s hose on a wooden match.

10. The G-spot: For more open-minded and less squeamish guys, one of the best ways to masturbate is to include the anus. For others it’s strictly a one-way street.

If you’re willing to explore here though, then you could be in for an orgasm-increasing treat. Here are some ideas for you:

Don’t forget to wash before you start.

Check that your chosen nail (yes – one finger will do) is short and not sharp. File it down if necessary.

Add plenty of lubricant on your finger (proper lubricant is better so you don’t accidentally stick something in there which can burn)

Rub around the outside of your anus to begin with.

Gently insert a finger as far as is comfortable.

You can then just keep the finger inside while you masturbate with your other hand as normal, or move it gently in and out. Whatever works for you.

The G-Spot is a small area a couple of inches inside. It should feel like a little ball just over an inch in diameter. This is actually the outside of the prostate. You can softly rub this spot if you manage to find it, and if it’s pleasurable.

Stimulating the G-Spot is known in the tantric sex world as a prostate massage, and is an effective way of enhancing orgasm. The key though with all these ideas is to be gentle and soft.

9 natural ways to get a bigger penis

There is hope. You need not fear, these tips are all natural and does not require surgery or drastic solutions.

  Get a bigger penis

Just because your penis is a less-than-desired size, does not mean you are doomed to a life of worrying about what women will think about it. There is hope. You need not fear, these tips are all natural and does not require surgery or drastic solutions.

Askmen provides 10 ways to change your penis size.

1. Correct your posture: Stress from work and other sources could be causing your penis to retract inside your body like a frightened turtle. Stress actually limits blood flow to your groin area, making for a smaller, softer erection and a fleeting sense of arousal.  Also, poor posture from a sedentary desk job can cause muscle tension in your groin, which performs a pull-up on your penis and hides a significant portion of your shaft when you don’t exactly have an inch to spare. Agood pelvic massage (administered by yourself, or someone you’re intimate with) should do the trick for both of these issues. Using circular motions, work your hand through the genitals’ surrounding areas, like your inner thighs, lower abs and butt.

2. No smoking: You may be more inclined to quit if you knew that smoking actually shortens your penis size by an entire centimetre (and we all know that every bit counts). A study of 200 erect men back in 2010, they found that smokers’ erect penises were smaller on average than those of non-smokers. Erections are all about blood flow -- and smoking narrows arteries, limiting the amount of blood flowing to that precious organ and making it smaller in both length and girth. Maybe that'll finally be your motivation for kicking the habit!

3. More erections: You might not be aware of this, but your penis, like other appendages, needs to be worked out to remain healthy. Regular erections keep your shaft virile and in shape. If you find your erections are limited due to lack of arousal during the day, you needn’t worry. The male brain performs routine boner maintenance while you sleep, even if the dream isn’t an erotic one.

4. Eat better: Getting rid of your gut won’t necessarily make your penis larger, but your gut encroaches on the base of your penis, making it smaller in appearance. To lose abdominal fats, eat less meat and cheese, as these foods narrow your arteries, and instead adopt a diet rich in fruits and veggies, as they contain antioxidants that keep arteries open and welcome blood flow. Exercising will deliver a similar effect and further reduce gut protrusion.

5. Cock ring: While a cock ring won’t create a longer penis, it will temporarily add to its girth by restricting blood from leaving the penis, which results in a harder, more engorged erection. Likewise, a penis pump brings blood to the organ, which also provides temporary enhancement. Don’t get carried away, though -- the pump can be overused, resulting in tissue damage and a weaker erection over time. Both objects can certainly be great fun, but don’t necessarily add inches -- more like... swelling.

6. Groom: A survey on male grooming trends found 95% of the 1,000 men surveyed admitted to manscaping. It makes the penis longer as it forces perspective -- the shorter the pubic hair, the longer your penis will look. Going completely bald however, could deliver an opposite effect, making your johnson look pre-pubescent.

7. Consider oral: A study intended to determine the average man’s penile length and girth (5.6 and 4.8 inches respectively) also found that men, on average, reported larger erections after receiving oral sex than if they’d handled their meat manually. "We don't know if that means that when men have oral sex that it's more arousing and they get a bigger erection, or means that men who have bigger penises could be getting more oral sex in the first place," Debby Heberneck, a researcher at Indiana University told media outlets of her discovery.

8. Hot shower: Warmth increases blood flow and will temporarily enhance your penis size. It will also make your scrotum hang lower, further delivering to the awe-factor of your overall package. Your testicles retract from your body when you’re warm, and snuggle up close when they’re cold. If a shower isn’t at your disposal, soak a rag or towel in warm water and wrap it around your junk for a few minutes.

9. Tugging: A few tugs of your flaccid penis should add a good inch or more to your member. This is what the professionals do. The tugging method is simple and involves gently stretching the penis with one of your hands -- gently stroking works as well. After a few strokes, you will notice your penis appears larger, but isn’t hard just yet. Congratulations, you’ve reached the perfect balance between flaccid and erect. Again, this effect is all about blood flow.

Penis Pleasure: This is the kind of dick women love

Women were asked to chose among various penis sizes and pick the one they want for either a long term relationship or a one-night-stand.

Penis size women love

Most men wonder if they have the ideal package size. While some worry about being too small, others are wondering if they might be too big. Thankfully, most men fall under the ideal average penis size, but are women pleased with this?

In a new study, women were asked to chose among various penis sizes and pick the one they want for either a long term relationship or a one-night-stand.

It was found that the average length women preferred for a long-term relationship was 6.3 inches, with a girth of 4.8 inches.

For one night stands, women preferred a slightly longer penis, with a length of 6.4 inches and a girth of 5.0 inches.

READ: 9 natural ways to get a bigger penis

The researchers explained this numbers, saying, "Women preferred a larger penis size (especially a larger circumference) for one-time partners as compared to long-term partners."

"While this preference for a larger phallus is above the average penis size, it is only very slightly above the average."

The reason for this preference is that women might want something more 'exciting' for a one-night-stand as opposed to one for a long term relationship.

"Novelty itself contributes to pleasure, so seeking a more novel-sized penis may be consistent with a goal to pursue pleasure primarily in one-time partners," the researchers said.

"Women may prefer a smaller penis size in a long-term partner compared to a one-time partner for reasons of both physical comfort and a preference for less masculinity in a longer term partner."

Prevent Cancer, Premature EjaculationHere are 5 ways to take care of your penis

A medical doctor shares a few tips so you know how to take care of your penis to prevent major issues.

  How to take care of your penis

Taking good care of your penis will not only keep it clean, it will also prevent your likelihood of testicular cancer and other penis-related issues.

A medical doctor shares a few tips that should help you.

1. Clean up: Your penis should be cleaned daily. So should your bottom and the area in between, called the perineum. Use a mild soap as these areas can be sensitive.

2. Examine yourself: It is not just women who need to get their breasts check to prevent cancer.  Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men. For this reason, every week you should examine each testis (the plural is testes) in turn between your finger and thumb by rolling the skin over them. The most common symptom is a lump of any size but you should book an appointment with your doctor if you have any new feelings in the scrotal area.

READ: This is the kind of dick women love

3. Erection problems: Erectile dysfunction, or impotence, is unfortunately common from middle age onwards and it’s caused by a narrowing of the blood vessels that pump blood to create and maintain an erection. This narrowing may occur for a number of reasons but high blood pressure, diabetes and smoking are high on the list. Giving up smoking seems like a no-brainer, and maintaining a healthy body weight and undertaking regular exercise reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure and diabetes.

4. Protect from STIs: Sexually Transmitted Infections are invisible and often give no symptoms for many years so you won’t know if you’ve just passed one on, so you should always wear a condom. They significantly reduce the risk of the transmission of STIs.

5. Make good use of your penis: Make ejaculation part of your daily routine. Here’s why: a large Harvard study of nearly 30,000 men found the risk of prostate cancer was 33 per cent lower in men who’d ejaculated at least 21 times per month, compared to those who ejaculated only 4-7 times per month. This included ejaculations during sex, masturbation and, um, “nocturnal emissions”.

Penis Perception: This proves you are not giving her enough sex

A new study titled Penis Perception Study, explored sex and male sexual functioning.

Fuck like a porn star

A new study has shown that most women will prefer it if a sex session lasted a bit longer.

In a survey conducted recently, it was found that on average, men and women have sex for about ten minutes but hey would like to have it last about twenty minutes or more.

Over 14,400 participants consisting of men and women participated. The survey also included single people as well as couples.

The study, titled Penis Perception Study, explored sex and male sexual functioning.

Head of the study, Dr. Mark said women, in particular, benefit from longer sex. “We know from prior research that in the areas of sexual satisfaction, orgasm, and pleasure, women tend to need a little bit more time than men to reach those peaks of pleasure than men, and this research is supporting that.”

Interestingly enough, 64.2% of men said they get frustrated at least 25% of the time because of ejaculating too early.
