Happy New Month from #theawakeningp. This September, Our theme is:
"YOUTH AND POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN THE SOUTH EAST".

It is often said that ‘Youths are the leaders of tomorrow’, but here in Nigeria, it is a different story altogether. Nigeria has a booming population of over 200 million people and even though the youths consist of over 70 per cent of the total population of the country, they are extremely eliminated from socio-economical and political spheres.

The young ones have not been allowed enough participation in the political space of the country, hence the agitation for more of their involvement in the governance of Nigeria. Although there have been some legal advocacies and youth-related policies and programs like the Not Too Young To Run Bill that was passed in May 2018. However, there is still work to be done regarding Youth Inclusion in governance.

This month on The Awakening, we will be focusing on Youth participation in the four states in the South East.

Do well to tune in by 2pm on @dream92.5fm Enugu and @flo94.9fm umuahia

*RECONCILE THEIR HEARTS UNTO GOD*

*BIBLE READING: MATTHEW 13*

*Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Prov 4:23 (NIV).*

In interceding for an unbeliever to come to Christ, the other condition you must deal with is the issue of spiritual blindness which lies in their heart. Paul speaking in 2 Cor. 4:3-4 (KJV) says; *"But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.*

The unbeliever is in a state of spiritual blindness and therefore cannot see or perceive what you see or understand whatever you are saying. Notice Paul said their heart is blinded not necessarily their eyes. This is because the heart is the seat of spiritual understanding. You listen with your ear and look with your eyes but most times understanding determines what you hear while listening and what you see while looking. In performing your priestly ministry of reconciling men unto God, learn to target their heart and its condition in prayers.

The other critical factor that is like this is the issue of a stony heart. Ezekiel 35:26(KJV); *“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.”* The unbeliever still has the heart of stone according to God. This stony heart is a rebellious heart. Just like a stone is not malleable or bendable so is the heart of an unbeliever; it is set in its own ways. You must trust God to carry out the first circumcision which is the replacement of the stony heart with that of flesh.

The spiritual heart is the core and center of human life just as the biological heart is what holds the entire human body systems together; pumping blood all over the body for every purpose and sustaining life. For a person to be properly reconciled to God, their heart must be touched.

The first conversion that took place at Pentecost was a product of hearts that were touched as they listened to Peter preach on that fateful day. *Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Acts 2:37(KJV).*

Consistently and intentionally target the heart of men in prayers and God will draw them unto Himself.

*ACTION POINT
Put to practice what you just learnt over the souls of men and women you have been believing and desiring would come to Christ.

*PRAYER POINTS
• Thank God for the gift of salvation.

• Come boldly into His presence by the blood of Jesus Christ and ask and receive forgiveness from your sins.

• Pray for the will of God to be done today, on earth as it is Heaven.

• Pray for the leadership of your nation and everyone in authority over you.

• Pray for your unsaved loved ones; Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I break the power of the devil over the life of (mention the persons by name) so that they receive their salvation which has already been paid for by the blood of Jesus Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

• Make your other requests to God.

• Thank God for hearing and answering your prayers.

This hike in the price of these 2 essential commodities must be reversed.

It's a pity that what happened in the 80s is repeating itself once again in our lifetime.

PDP Rejects N151 Fuel Price, Hike In Electricity Tariff...Says APC Is Punishing Nigerians

The @OfficialPDPNig vehemently rejects the fresh increase in the price of fuel to N151 per liter and electricity tariff to N66 per kwh under the @OfficialAPCNg and its government, describing such as callous, cruel and punishing.

The party demands an immediate reversal of the prices to avert a national crisis, as the increase will result in upsurge in costs of goods and services and worsen the biting hardship being faced by Nigerians, who are already impoverished and overburdened by @OfficialAPCNg -imposed high cost of living in the last five years.

Our party asserts that by increasing the price of fuel from the N87 per litre it sold under the PDP to an excruciating N151 while at the same time allowing the hike in electricity tariff from N30.23 per kwh to over N66, the @OfficialAPCNg has left no one in doubt that its agenda is to inflict pain and hardship on Nigerians to satisfy their selfish interests.

The unjustifiable increase in the price of these essential supplies, coming barely a week after the @OfficialAPCNg brazenly posted a support for fuel price hike, while attempting to rationalize the excruciating hardship being suffered by Nigerians under the @MBuhari administration, has further confirmed that the @OfficialAPCNg is at the center of the harsh policies of the @MBuhari Presidency.

It is distressing that the @OfficialAPCNg administration increased the cost of essential commodities at the time the leadership of other countries are offering palliatives to their citizens to cushion the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is instructive to add that our nation is doomed under the @OfficialAPCNg watch.

We know that the @OfficialAPCNg is an unfeeling party but it is indeed shocking that it could go to the extent of approving such a hike at this trying time, when many Nigerians are struggling to afford staple foods and other necessities of life.

Our party challenges the @OfficialAPCNg and the @MBuhari administration to publish the parameters with which it arrived at the increase of fuel price to N151 per liter given that with the prevailing values in the international market, the appropriate price template for domestic pump price in Nigeria ought not to be above N100 per liter.

Our party further challenges the @OfficialAPCNg-led Federal Government to publish details of its sleazy and over-bloated oil subsidy regime, including the involvement of APC interests in the claimed under-recovery for unnamed West African countries, running into trillions of naira, while Nigerians are made to bear the burden of high fuel costs.

Moreover, the APC and its government have failed to allow an open investigation into allegations of fuel price overcharge as well as the fraudulent subsidy regime through which over N14 trillion had allegedly been frittered by unscrupulous individuals in the APC.

Our fear is that the @OfficialAPCNg is pushing Nigerians to the wall with its obnoxious and anti-people proclivities and we caution that nobody should misinterpret the peaceful and law-abiding nature of Nigerians as a sign of weakness.

Our party therefore restates our call on the @nassnigeria to save the nation by calling the @OfficialAPCNg and its administration to order before they plunge our nation into chaos.
