~0.5 mins read
James Abraham, Jos
Hoodlums on Sunday looted the house of a former Speaker
of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, located
near Jos University Teaching Hospital.
The PUNCH gathered that the hoodlums defied the
ongoing curfew imposed by the state government to also
invade other buildings in search of COVID-19 palliatives.
Dogara’s house was attacked about 9 am, an eyewitness
told our correspondent.
Policemen and other security operatives enforcing the
curfew shot to disperse the rampaging youths without
success.
“They broke into the house of the former Speaker and
attacked everyone, including Dogara’s brother, and (they)
are currently moving anything they see. In the process, the
invaders moved several items – tricycles, furniture,
electronics, and other valuables – out of the house,†an
eyewitness told The PUNCH.

We Need True Peace For Prosperity To Thrive
~1.4 mins read
There are tons of unpleasant things currently happening in
our society, and even beyond our own territory.
Nevertheless, in the midst of the pain, sorrows and
uncertainties, the Word of God keeps reminding us of God's
pleasant thoughts toward us:
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the
Lord , thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future
and a hope." (Jeremiah 29:11)
So God is eager to feed us with true and pleasant peace,
both as a society and individually. Truthfully, we can only
get true peace when we turn to God and allow Him have His
way.
This however requires true humility. God said:
"If My people who are called by My name will humble
themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their
wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin and heal their land." (II Chronicles 7:14)
For prosperity to thrive, we need peace. Unfortunately, doing
things contrary to God's Will would only keep corrupting the
land, and the repercussions will always be unpleasant.
Hence, we must repent of our evil ways and surrender to
God completely. The first step is to embrace the Lordship of
Jesus Christ. Just call upon the Name of Jesus anywhere
you are, and you shall be saved. Then try to introduce
others to Christ too.
To experience the peace that will usher in an enhanced level
of prosperity, we must quit our wrongdoings and forsake
anything sinful. Do away with immoralities, shedding of
blood, alcoholism, injustice, corruption, etc. These things
only give the devil access to plunder us - both as individuals
and as a society.
Jesus Christ promised to give us true rest if we can come to
Him. Imagine how beautiful our society would be if everyone
is faithfully living according to the precept of God. This is a
good reason we Christians should intensify our evangelistic
efforts, so the Kingdom of God will be established in all
facet and sector, and more people will come into the Light of
Christ.
