TAPPING

  LUKE 8:45-46 (NLT) – “Who touched me?” Jesus asked. Everyone denied it, and Peter said, “Master this whole crowd is pressing up against you”. But Jesus told him, “No someone deliberately touched Me, for I felt healing power go out of Me. Tapping is an English word and has its meaning and context in which this word is used. But my use of this word “TAPPING” is not in the sense and context of its conventional use and as such means entirely something different from the conventional meaning. The sense and context in which I use this word here is in the “Street English Language” which is called Pigin English in Nigeria the country of my birth and residence. Tapping is about having unauthorized, unofficial, or illegal access to something. I had an experience in the last quarter of 2024, I can’t fix the exact date. But on this date I worked from home, so I was at home. Some staff of the power distribution company visited the apartment where I resided and said they were in the co...

MEETING OTHERS NEEDS

But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. Mathew 23:11 A servant is someone who serves others and it demands a lot of discipline for one to be at the service of others.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Accountability is the obligation of an individual or organization to account for its activities, accept responsibility for them, and to disclose the result in a transparent manner (www.busniessdictionary.com). Accountability is an obligation; duty bond which could be externally imposed or personally imposed by an individual to account for its actions or activities. It demands accepting responsibility for actions or inaction and being ready to make public the commendation or rebuke in a transparent manner. One is not accountability until he/she is ready to take blames for his failures and applause for his success. The trend I have seen very common is people’s readiness to make public their success while keeping away their failures; this is not real accountability in real sense of it. There must be transparency in times of both success and failure. External accountability is when a system is putting this demand on you, for some if the system is not in place they will have no check. B...
