 Prayer Points With Dr. D.K. Olukoya                               Prayer for New Beginnings Psalm 103:5 - Against the spirit of stagnation - When you desire that new things should begin in your life The end of your sinful, hopeless, helpless, weary and frustrating life is a new beginning of a vibrant and existing life in Christ. Isa. 43:19 : "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert." Listen to these stories. There was one woman, called May. She sobbed uncontrollably; after 35 years of marriage, her husband died. All her plans for retirement were of no use. Two. Men are not supposed to cry; they are supposed to be strong; yet Andrew covered his face with his hands and wept bitterly because his business had collapsed. All his hand-work and all his dreams were shattered. Three. Anne suddenly found herself jobless. Where will she start from?

‘Why we are going on strike’ Niger Delta University Lecturers of the Bayelsa State-owned Niger Delta University (NDU) in Amassoma, who yesterday proceeded on an indefinite strike over their four months unpaid salaries, have given their reason why they decided to take the action. Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Port-Harcourt zone, Prof Beke Select, said the state government owes the lecturers and non-academic staff of the university since January. He stated that the decision to proceed on what he described as work-to-rule action was taken on Thursday when all entreaties to the government for their salaries to be paid fell on deaf ears. “Yes, the work-to-rule action was ratified by the National Executive Council (NEC) of ASUU. The national visitation team came to the university and spent three days and we met with Deputy Governor John Jonah. “They also met with the Vice Chancellor and the Congress. When they come like this, before they give pe

Ted Cruz is ‘Lucifer in the flesh’? Speaker of the House John Boehner, D-OH, answers questions from reporters during his weekly briefing on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, December 5, 2013. AFP PHOTO / Jim WATSON (Photo credit should read JIM WATSON/AFP/Getty Images) Former US House speaker John Boehner, who stepped down last year, let fly with a stunning critique of fellow Republican and 2016 presidential hopeful Ted Cruz, labeling him the devil incarnate. “Lucifer in the flesh” is how the ever-blunt Republican bigwig described Senator Cruz of Texas, who is struggling to block billionaire Donald Trump’s march to the Republican presidential nomination, according to the Stanford Daily newspaper. “I have Democrat friends and Republican friends,” Boehner said. “I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.” Boehner’s remarks were made at a public talk late Wednesday at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California.
