From the hour of 5am 
Our focus will be on 
Solidarity 


Prayer- 
Lord God You said a house divided against itself cannot stand, may we Your children stand in solidarity with one another as go on on our journey in this life. Let unity reign in the body of Your Son, Jesus Christ, amen. 


Praise- 
Stand up, stand up for Jesus! 
Ye soldiers of the cross 
Lift high His royal banner 
It must not suffer loss 
From victory unto victory 
His army shall He lead 
Till every foe is vanquished And Christ He is Lord indeed. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus The trumpet call obey 
Forth to the mighty conflict In this His glorious day 
Ye that are men now serve Him Against unnumbered foes 
Let courage rise with danger And strength to strength oppose. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus Stand in His strength alone 
The arm of flesh will fail you You dare not trust your own 
Put on the gospel armour And watching unto prayer 
Where duty calls or danger Be never wanting there. 

Stand up stand up for Jesus The strife will not be long 
This day the noise of battle The next the victor’s song 
To him that overcometh A crown of life shall be 
He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally. 


Ponder- 
While some people are quick to visit prisons to reach out, they often do not consider all those living in one form of prison or the other around them and sadly even themselves. We are often called upon to join solidarity movements either for religion, race, politics, or against crime or a negative frequent occurrence. But what if our solidarity starts from our hearts where we agree that the authority of the world and all lives has been given to Jesus Christ by God Almighty Himself? The reason why we have divergent views on issues that ought to be generally agreed on is because people now believe their opinions count even if it is above what the Holy Spirit counsels against! Who has the final authority in this world, in your life and in all that you commit your life to, be it family, work, school, causes or movements. 


Read- 
2 John 1: 9, 10, 11, 7 - Anyone who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God; he who abides in the doctrine has both the Father and the Son. If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting (no solidarity); for he who greets him shares his wicked work. For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will NOT acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. 


Prayer-point- 
Let more children of God stand for each other and fight the only enemy. Let our solidarity be real, pure and enduring as we look out for one another. Let us never join the side of hate. Let us love as God instructed. 


Charge- 
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. In all that you align with, does Jesus Christ take pre-eminence?

Theme Bible Verses

Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." Proverbs 16:28 A perverse man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 17: 9 He who forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter alienates a friend. Leviticus 19:16 You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not stand forth against the life of your neighbour: I am the LORD. Proverbs 26:20 For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarrelling ceases. 22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body. Proverbs 11:13 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing hidden. Psalms 34:13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Charles For: Frien...

Our TLF 2 Day Event

Our TLF 2 Day Event started on Thursday and ended yesterday Friday. We had the person of Mrs Ishioma Francis who came to share good news with the children. We had Art competition and prizes were given. We had spelling bee and gifts were given. We had skipping competition and gifts were given. We had recitation of poems originally written by the children and gifts were given. We also used the opportunity to remind everyone of our theme for August. We shared our drinks and biscuits and everyone had a nice time. The children interacted and had a nice time. It came to a happy end and everyone went back home safely. We look forward to more activities such as these. We thank God for the success and blessings. God bless all those who contributed in various ways. Remember that, the ultimate law is love. TLF

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...
