Hello, please what is the current allowed age range for cars imported in to Nigeria??

Beautiful, modern, well maintained workstations available for sale. Electricity sockets attached. Movable drawers. Total of 15 seats available. 4 seaters, 3 seaters and single seaters. Very versatile to suit any office space. Drawers have keys. Workstations can be viewed and picked up from our lekki 1 office. Contact 07040674634.

I was looking for the contact of a service I had used before and found them on VConnect. But every time I click to see their number, VConnect directs me to other similar businesses saying "They can direct me to other businesses offering the same service." I thought this was odd but it happens on all the contact buttons. They claim they are protecting users or something but to me this just seems like they are directing traffic to particular businesses. Not everyone goes there looking for random service providers. Some people already know who they want to do business with and get on there to get that particular business' contact details but instead you have to answer plenty of irrelevant questions and get redirected to competitors!

I'm registered on the platform but I am now seeing why we don't get any business from there if the platform is playing favourites!

If anyone is enjoying any business benefits from this platform, let me know because I feel like going to delete the businesses I have on there if they are just redirecting people when it's you people are trying to contact

I think the looks matter more than the clothes to be honest. Cuz you can see a razz babe and a fine babe wearing the same thing, but because one is funny looking, you'll automatically assume the clothes are second-hand or low quality. While if an ajebutter babe should even wear some raggedy clothes, you might assume it's the latest fashion.

I remember this babe in Uni that wore these dungarees that was all over school (and tejuoso ), but men her own always looked special shaaaa, cuz the beauty and lovely skin was just shining through.

Clothes make a lot of people look FINE FROM FAR, but when they get close, they are FAR FROM FINE!

I'm all for inner beauty, it lasts longer.

@yawa, funny thing is it came up right after I asked what happened to it, but now its disappeared ago.

Now I remember why I don't really log into nairaland that often, my posts seem to disappear.

Anyways I was mererly saying to inhisimage that if you want something for nothing, thats what you get 'nothing'. For 10k, I won't even waste my credit calling you.

But there's these peops that advertise on fb claiming they can get your site up and running in 5 days for 5k. Now when u go to their website, there are no examples of their work, merely some unclear images (I even tried googling some of the names, but nothing came up). There's no address or phone number. Their testimonials page has no testimonies. Once you complete the questionnaire concerning what you want as per your website, you're taken to a page with their bank details and told to credit their account. The site is 'powered by Anozim limited', but of course this link leads to nowhere!

Like I said thats what you get for wanting something for nothing, NOTHING!

what happened to my previous post?

@webnewbie. The first thing to know when getting into anything at all - be it webdesigning or fish farming , is that 'SEARCH IS YOUR FRIEND'. You don't know stuff, you google it! The internet has loads of tutorials on how to build a flash form.

Another thing to note especially as a webdesigner is there are so many things we spend hours trying to build from scratch which we can (Thank God) get free online and use instantly. For all your free flash resources, yep in actual flash files ready for download, go to www.ffiles.com. They've got all manner of free flash files which you can use 'as is' or modify to your requirements, e.g. a flash form http://www.ffiles.com/flash/web_applications_and_data/contact_form_in_as3_2489.html. ;DThe other good thing is if you have issues with the file, you can contact the owner and he'll help out, all free of charge once you register on their site.

Hope I helped.

your website seems to have expired/been unplugged. I'm interested in the Interswitch stuff too. I just want some pointers as to what it involves.

Sermon: When God regrets His blessings

My father used to say, when you have N50 in your pocket, you walk differently from when you have N50,000 in your pocket. With the N50 you walk quietly and watch yourself so you don’t spoil anything along the way, knowing you can’t afford to incur any damages. But when you have N50,000, you throw your legs about freely, you swing your arms, there’s a bounce in your step and people know your coming.

So it is with us. When we’re seeking blessings from the Lord, we’re quiet and humble. We’re in church regularly, we pray dutifully and we fast too. Then the blessings start pouring in from God and we begin to bounce, prayer becomes like a drain on our time and going to church doesn't seem necessary any more. We forget how we came about our blessings. Instead we begin to oppress, humiliate and sin with our blessings, forgetting that the Lord who gave can also take away.


1 Samuel 15 - God regrets blessing Saul:

The Blessing: [vs. 1] -Samuel said to Saul, "The LORD has sent me to anoint you king over his people Israel. "
The Commandment: [vs. 2] - This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys."
The Sin: [vs. 9] - But Saul and the army spared Agag (the Amalek King) and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely…
God regrets: [vs. 10, 11] - Then the word of the LORD came to Samuel: "I regret that I made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions."
The Consequences: [vs. 28] - Samuel said to him, "The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to one of your neighbors—to one better than you.


Lesson 1 – You can not hide your sin from God.
When Samuel went to confront Saul, Saul attempted to distort the truth twice. First he claimed he had done all that God had commanded (vs. 13). Now if the Lord hadn’t appeared to Samuel and told him what Saul had done, Saul may have gotten away with deceiving Samuel. But what of the all-seeing and ever-present God? You can deceive humans, even yourself, but God is never mocked (Galatians:6:7). When that didn’t work, Saul then confessed that he had disobeyed, but only a little bit, and even then it was for the Lord’s sake that he had disobeyed (vs. 15). When you attempt to lie or downplay your sins, you deceive only yourself. Our Lord knows the thoughts behind our every action. He sees our hearts before we even commit our crimes.

Lesson 2 – Sin can never honor God.
When Samuel challenged him, Saul said he and his men had disobeyed God, in order to honor God (vs. 21). Again God is not mocked. You can not sin and say it was for His benefit. You can not steal and say you needed the money to build God a church. How do you dishonor God in order to honor him? Where’s the reasoning behind that. What’s the rationale behind stealing from your workplace and then buying your pastor a car? You can’t bribe God.

Lesson 3 – The Creator before the created
Finally Saul told the truth as to why he had disobeyed God (vs. 24). “I have sinned: for I have disobeyed the LORD, because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.”
God is God! He is our creator; you can not honor his creations - humans (bone and flesh and eventually dust!) above him. But because the wrath of God is not immediate, we often feel we can get away with it. If God had told Saul He would strike him dead if he disobeyed, I doubt he would have been swayed by the voice of the people. Many of us find it easy to succumb to those that are ‘in our face’ at the moment, thinking ‘I will make it right with God later’. And then when we say our prayers we say ‘But God it was not my fault, you saw the way they were harassing/taunting/provoking me,  I just had to…’ But if the Lord told you “if you hit that maid one more time, I will reverse my blessings upon you”, you would treat your housemaid like a queen.

Lesson 4 – Obedience is better than sacrifice.
Samuel said in vs. 22. “Do you think sacrifice is more important to God than obedience? To obey is better than sacrifice.”
Sometimes we psyche ourselves into thinking God will understand. We defraud people saying we need the money and then take 1/10 to the Lord as tithes, and expect that to correct things. Obedience is actually a form of sacrifice; because you deny your inner sinful cravings and obey God instead. Deny the need to be richer and don’t take that bribe. Deny the need to become richer and don’t date that rich married man. Deny yourself the need to be seen as a no-nonsense boss and don’t oppress and humiliate your workers. Deny yourself the need to be feared and seen as ‘hard’ and don’t join a cult. Obedience is the ultimate sacrifice you can give to God.

Lesson 5 – Sin can reverse blessings and leave you open to attack from the enemy.
In the end God regretted blessing Saul and took away his blessing. Not just that, God stopped fighting Saul’s enemies on his behalf. His enemies taunted him. In the end it took the Lord’s new anointed to deliver them from the hands of Goliath.
The Lord had lifted Saul up, anointed him, empowered him and made him king over Israel, yet in a moment of weakness Saul forgot who it was that he owed his blessings to and instead chose to obey the people. Saul was not voted in as King, no one rigged elections for him to get there, he had no political ‘godfather’… he had no foreign allies doing the underground maneuverings. It was no man but God who brought him from obscurity and made him King over Israel. Yet this same God was put last on his list to please.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

In Summary:
Watch yourself, don’t let God regret blessing you, or take away his blessings, or stop fighting your battles or reject you. Give God His due. Let Him be number one in your life.

If your progress in life has made you wealthy financially but poorer spiritually and morally, then you need to either ask close friends and family how you’ve changed or sit yourself down and put pen to paper and honestly analyze yourself and your weak points - why have you changed? Is it the company you’re keeping (e.g. friends or business partners)? Or is it the company you’re not keeping (e.g. church)?. Work on each of them, and I pray that the Lord continues to look upon you with favour and strengthen you.

Stay Blessed. http://www.nigerianchurchonline.com
