Welcome to Mitchelle Obatu's Blog

 Hey, it's been a while.  How are you doing? I have been a lot busy lately hence my seeming absence. I have not been able to post a thing on this blog for a while. But...but...I am still very much around. I may not post as often as I would want to but I will always pop in and drop something😁. If you are in Abuja, I want to specially invite your youth to be a part of this event coming up on Monday 21st Dec, 2020 by 10am. Venue is G-gozil 2-1 (after 2-1 garden).  Save the date. Set a reminder. It's just 3 days away! Lol.

Three women who worked at a Spa Ravi Zacharias co-owned, have come forward with additional allegations of sexual misconduct. Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM) has opened an investigation into allegations that its late founder and namesake sexually harassed multiple massage therapists who worked at two day spas he co-owned. Three women who worked at the businesses, located in a strip mall in the Atlanta suburbs, told Christianity Today that Ravi Zacharias touched them inappropriately, exposed himself, and masturbated during regular treatments over a period of about five years. His business partner said he regrets not stopping Zacharias and sent an apology text to one of the victims this month. RZIM denies the claims, saying in a statement to CT that the charges of sexual misconduct “do not in any way comport with the man we knew for decades.” The organization has hired a law firm “with experience investigating such matters” to look into the allegations, which date back at l

 Someone asked: What can we do about rape? How do we bring an end to rape? What is the government or the law doing about rape? And I ask, what can we do about fraud? What can we do about kidnapping? What can we do about murder, abortion and every single vice out there that haunts our society?  Unfortunately, nothing much because the battle is actually more spiritual than it is physical. Even the law has not gone far in protecting it's citizens. Crimes are being committed daily. The government too can't do much either.  But did you notice that despite the laws in place, people still commit various crimes knowing fully well the implication of their actions🤷🏽‍♀? Why? The problem runs deeper than we make it. The law can only check crime to an extent but it cannot totally abolish it. Even if today the government rules that rapists should be castrated or killed , believe me people will still rape people. Recently a law was passed in a state in Nigeria which says that rapists shou

King Balaak of Moab felt insecure, so he recruited the service of a prophet named Balam to come and curse Israel for him. He believed that when Balaam curses Israel, he will be able to defeat them. But Balaam could not.  God was with Israel, so how can you curse what God has blessed? How shall one denounce whom the LORD has not denounced? (Num 23:8). He went on to tell king Balaak that 'there's no sorcery and divination against the house of Jacob that can stand' (Num 23:23).  3 times king Balaak tried to get Balaam to curse Israel, 3 times he received the same answer from him. Balaam spoke as he was inspired by God to speak. Where Balaam missed it But here's something you may not know:  It was Balaam that told the king Balaak how to penetrate Israel and bring them down. How? He taught him how to make Israel sin against God through idolatry and sexual immorality (Rev 2:14). As a matter of fact, the very next chapter after Balaam's last prophecy, it was recorded that

 This is supposed to be a church located in Iceland. These young children also being infused with the wrong doctrine obviously.  For a Sunday school ad to depict Jesus frolicking under the rainbow (an obvious sign for LGBTQ), wearing breasts and a make-up, sure speaks volumes about their intentions. Beware.

  This is sad. What's the idea behind this? As reported by VC.

The biblical story of Jesus saving the woman caught in adultery has been twisted and given a new ending in a Chinese textbook, with Jesus killing the woman and telling her that He, too, is a sinner, according to a new report. The textbook was published by the government-run University of Electronic Science and Technology Press, and is said to be used to teach “professional ethics and law” in vocational schools. In the original biblical story in John 8, Jesus goes to the temple courts, where the teachers of the law and the Pharisees bring him a woman caught in adultery and ask Christ if she should be stoned. Jesus writes on the ground and then tells them, “Let anyone of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” After the woman’s accusers leave, Jesus tells her, “Go now and leave your life of sin.” It’s a story of grace and mercy. The Chinese textbook, though, changes the ending, according to UCA News. The textbook says, “When the crowd disappeared, Jesus stoned the s

 Hi! Have you ever wondered  what 'works' is all about in the Bible? I personally have heard quite some confusing statements about works. Lol. But I believe the Holy Spirit has given me an insight into what our works really are. The Bible speaks of good works and dead works. Now, if there are good works, then it's not far-fetched to say there are bad works as well, right? What are works? Works can be defined as: Proof of our faith in Jesus. It is what we do that men see. It is the fruits we bear. It is our words, our thoughts, our conduct etc. It is our (righteous) acts. It is our deeds. "We are God's workmanship, created in Christ for good works , which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" (Eph 2:10) Pay extra attention to the next Scripture: "What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?...Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works is dead. But someone will say, '

Someone may ask, "Jesus was made perfect through suffering. Does it mean He was not perfect in the first place?" Jesus actually was perfect in every way. He was morally perfect and without sin. But even though He saw and He knew the sufferings of man, He would need to experience it first hand; to be in our shoes or be where we have been in order to be qualified to be the captain of our salvation and our High Priest. "For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings" (Heb 2:10). Through His sufferings Jesus became fully qualified to serve in that position. I love how someone wrote it - "There are some things you can learn by watching others experience that you cannot completely understand until you share that experience." Now, Jesus perfectly understands what we are going through and knows exactly how to help us because He has bee

 Pretty alarming, right? Christian witches is purely an oxymoron, because these two words have nothing in common and have absolutely nothing to do with each other! Yet some people identify themselves as Christians and witches all at the same time. How on earth does it work? How does light and darkness come together and team up? How do you mix holiness with profanity? I can't even begin to imagine it. But it's no surprise. We are living in the last of the last days and it's very normal these days for people to cook up whatever doctrine that suits them. The christian witches believe Jesus was a sorcerer and the Bible, a book of magic. Appalling. The force behind this is a woman named Valerie Love who said she was "born a witch" but was forced to stifle her identity as a Jehovah's Witness from age 4 to 30 when she finally left the "cult." Valerie describes herself as a practicing Christian witch and an ordained minister of spiritual consciousness. She r

A video where Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, talked about his vision to bring all religious leaders together is causing outrage in the social media. The video which was uploaded on the Facebook wall of Joseph Okechukwu, , about 14 hours ago to the time of writing this story, has been shared 1600 times and attracted close to 700 comments. The video is also being shared on several whats App platforms. Okechukwu is regularly on the social media talking about end time issues. He has a lot of followers. Apart from running the video, Okechwukwu did a critic of Adeboye’s comments in the video which also showed Pastor Williams Kumuyi. He said Pastor Adeboye was playing to the gallery and that he is part of the endtime agenda to bring about a one-world religion. For those who may not understand, the one-world religion agenda is part of the end-time game that will usher in the end of age. One-world religion In the video titled The Mandate, which h

Many have tried to decipher what Paul's thorn in the flesh was. Some say it's sickness, some say it's persecution, and some say it's people who constantly oppose his ministry. But whatever Paul's thorn in the flesh was, it was meant to keep him from getting proud due to the abundance of the revelations he got. If you start reading from 2 Cor 12:1, Paul talked about visions and revelations of the Lord. He has heard things - 'inexpressible words, which is not lawful for a man to utter' (See 2 Cor 12:4). He said, "Lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me..." (1 Cor 12:7a). Paul described this thorn in the flesh as 'a messenger of Satan to buffet me...' Why? "Lest I be exalted above measure." I believe whatever this thorn was, it was given to Paul to check him. The thorn in his flesh was a check, not a curse . It was a constant reminder that despite the magnitude 

Knowing how sexualized our world is today and how there hardly seems to be anything innocent in these times, Audi released an advert showing a little girl eating a banana in front of an Audi vehicle.  The question is 'why'? Does it mean that all the while their team sat down to deliberate over the ad and the message they'd pass through it, they never even considered that there would be a backlash considering how sensitive that content is?  Or are they merely trying to court the attention of the public by creating a controversy? It is said that no publicity is bad publicity. It doesn't matter the story - good or bad or ugly - as long as it puts you out there, it is okay.  The way I see this, this could be a marketing or promotion strategy. I dunno. Audi has  since apologized for putting out an ad that many people described as 'sexually suggestive', 'creepy' and 'strange'. Some people saw nothing wrong with the advert though. A Twitter user said t

This man is a self-described pedophile and child rapist. He believes in white supremacism and refers to Adolf Hitler as a “white supremacist hero.”  He has also said he believes women should be treated as property, and that they should be “owned, first by the fathers and later by their husbands.” He ran for a political post in the US and the following goals were on his “agenda”: He supports legalizing the viewing, distribution, and production of child pornography. He supports repealing the 19th Amendment to the U.S Constitution, which gave women the right to vote. He supports legalizing incestuous marriage. He supports allowing men to beat their wives. He believes states should not receive funding for girls and women to attend schools and colleges.

A doctor narrated this story on Quora: Two years ago while I was on my surgery rotation, I was on call one evening when a young man of about 25years was rushed in. He had an injury to his thigh that was bandaged up and was limping on one leg. So I started my history and he initially told me he sustained injuries from playing football 4 days earlier. So I tried to inspect the wound and opened up the bandage, just below it were layers of plaster. But I could feel a pulse over the plasters so I didn't proceed. His mother was adamant that I dressed the wound and I insisted that she had to wait for the surgeon and I had to admit them, they got upset and decided to leave to go elsewhere. So I discharged them on request. Three days later, same boy rushed in very late at night, looking very pale and weak and begging, “doctor please help me, please” he was burning up. So I commenced antibotics and pain meds and informed the surgeon on call. A surgery was booked for the next day. That mornin

Almost every morning, from my window, I see two beggars, a woman in her fifties and a guy in his thirties, who sit at the gate of a church to beg for alms. I assume they are mother and son. She always bares one of her breasts to people passing through the gate. I assume she has breast cancer. While the guy has a big crepe bandage wrapped around his left leg like someone with a serious injury on his leg. I felt sorry for them. I was recently shocked to my bones when I looked through the window very early in the morning and saw this duo prepare for their day job. It was very early. The guy was without a bandage and I could see his left leg was normal. I was like “omg”. The woman had a container in her hand. She dipped her hand several times in the container and applied something on her chest. This I believe is to simulate the illness she pretends to have. Then, the guy brought out his crepe bandage and wrapped it around his leg. When they were done they sat down. This made me sad- their

So Daystar replayed the video of the frontline doctors who claim that people don't need to die because Covid-19  can be treated with hydroxychloroquine, Zinc and Zithromax. One of the doctors who spoke in the 2hour long video, Dr Stella Emmanuel, said she's treated up to 350 patients with the above medication and it works. Several white doctors spoke up also, including another black male doctor (I put it like this because some people actually think that these white doctors pushed Dr Stella out to speak so she can be the scape goat). These frontline doctors wondered why exactly the 'cure' for Covid-19 is being kept a big secret. According to them, Dr Fauci doesn't work directly with patients and so the people who should know better about handling the Covid-19 patients were those at the frontlines who deal directly with these patients on a daily basis. So the question is: Who do we listen to? Dr Fauci who may not have handled any patient at all in a long t

Picking up our five year old daughter from kindergarten, I am flagged down by the school’s principal. He wordlessly hands me a drawing made by my daughter in art class. His facial expression is a combination of awkward embarrassment, empathy and a bit of consternation. That evening my wife and I examined the artwork and discussed at length what to do. Many minutes of strategizing resulted in the following conversation with our daughter as she sat on mommy’s lap at the kitchen table - me, placing the artwork on the table: “Hey, honey, tell me about this picture you drew at school today!” daughter: “Oh, I love that one! Do you like it?” me: “I do! Can you tell me about it?” daughter: “I drew it in art class!” me: "Good! Sooo, tell me what you were drawing…” daughter: “We were drawing our favorite things!” My wife's eyebrows shoot up. My brows furrow and I try mightily to play it off as if I'm carefully examining the picture. me: “That sounds fun. Wh

If you spend an extended time praying in tongues, it boosts your immune system by 35% because praying in tongues affects part of your brain. According to research, a hormone is released that improves the body's general health when you pray in the spirit. Praying in tongues or praying in the spirit is connecting your mouth to your spirit. "For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries" (1Cor 14:2). When you pray in tongues: 👉 You pray the perfect will of God. 👉 You build up your body and your spirit. You build your spiritual muscles.
