WHY IN SUCH A HURRY? - Elvira Jordan


WHY IN SUCH A HURRY? - Elvira Jordan


Good morning Beloved 😊


There is this rush and desperation that comes with the end of the year, especially in our climes.


People want to achieve all that they have planned for the year. People want to end the year with a bang. People want to close the year with a lot of victories. People want to show their village people how successful they are, when they travel home for Christmas.


This need to end the year in the best way, has given birth to a kind of rush that makes the “ember month mythology”; that evil things like accidents, ritual killings and other tragedies are bound to happen in the last quarter of every year. Some people link this mythology to spiritual mysteries that they associate with the end of the year.


On the contrary, I don’t think there is any negative spiritual thing linked to the “ember month”. It’s simply a case of cause and effect. 

The adrenaline rush people develop at the end of the year, owing to the need to finish the year in style, brings about a certain desperation that plays out negatively, causing the tragedies we experience at the end of the year.


People bind and cast the spirits of ember months and still do the things that attract the tragedies of ember month, because they are in such a rush to end the year in grand style.


If everyone can be calm, more calculated and less desperate to pepper village people in December, we will see a drastic reduction in the tragedies experienced at the end of the year.


Today, I want you to understand that whatever you could not accomplish from January to September, cannot be magically accomplished in November and December.


I know you want to end the year in a big way but just remember that the difference between December 2025 and January 2026 is just a dynamic of time.


Don’t allow man made timelines to push you into depression because you couldn’t achieve your goal; to push you into desperation for quick money schemes.


Whatever project we couldn’t complete in 2025, we will continue in 2026.

Whatever goal we couldn’t accomplish in 2025, we will accomplish in 2026.

Whatever plans we couldn’t achieve in 2025, the year 2026 is another year to try.

No pressure! 


Don’t allow external pressure and the need to impress, to push you into risking your life and that of others.


If you can calm down and slow down your hurry, you will see that a new year is a good time to try harder, as long as we are above ground, our senses are in tact and our energies are in the right place.


Whatever we couldn’t do in 2025, we try again in 2026.


Let us all cruise slowly and smoothly into the Yuletide season.


BIBLE VERSE: Philippians 1:6

being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;


PRAYER: Dear Lord, let Your Peace like a river flow through us. Let’s our lives be filled with Your excellent results. Let everyday in rest of the year  bring reasons to joyfully celebrate. Amen 🙏🏽🤲🏽


Do have a Blessed Monday and a Successful Week ahead. 

🩵🌼💜🌸🧡🍀❤️🪻💚🍄💛🌹🖤☘️🤍

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved 😊 A few days ago, I stumbled on a video where Apostle Femi Lazarus spoke about “Seeing” and it inspired my message today. Even as a child, I have always lived in a fantasy world and sometimes I feel like I take the fantasy thing too far because at some point, everything around me could be on fire and I will just create an alternate reality in my head where I am dancing in the snows. Everyone else could be worried or fearful about a dire situation and I will just picture  the best possible outcome of that situation and allow myself to remain there, while others bugger their minds off on how serious the matter is. Some people have always seen my view as “Toxic Positivity” and that has never been a problem to me. There are times when I would agree that I took the dreaming thing too far, but more often than not, it was the ideal thing for me because while others are worked up over the situation and worried sick about a p...

Tackling Violence and Criminality in the Niger Delta with Television Designed Content; A SEARCH Initiative

In a bid to tackle violence and criminality in the Niger Delta, Search for Common Ground and its consortium of partners have introduced several components that examine the role of the government and government institutions, security agencies, community representatives, civil society organizations and the media, to foster an inclusive approach in creating a new face for the Niger Delta. Due to its wealth in natural resources, the need for resource control has generated decades long battle that have defaced the oil rich region, even as the communities and people of the Niger Delta strive towards peaceful coexistence, to drive peace and progress in the region. For this cause, SEARCH in collaboration with Foundation for Partnership in the Niger Delta (PIND) and Stakeholders Democracy Network (SDN) embarked on a peace building project which was funded by the European Union with the theme, “A Community Centered Approach To Transforming Violence And Criminality In The Niger Delta” which...
