But God: A Story of Redemption and Grace

J Neil Daniel

In Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, he speaks to those who have come out of deep darkness and into the light of Christ. He writes, “And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Cor 6:11). I find myself deeply connected to those words. Such were some of you. That was me.

I started down the wrong path early in life. By the time I was 9 or 10, I was already experimenting with inhalants. Between the ages of 13 and 14, I began using narcotics, drinking hard liquor, running away, and became sexually active. My teen years were spent in and out of juvenile facilities. By the time I was 18, I was arrested—and nearly three decades later, I have been incarcerated ever since.

I was lost. I was hopeless. I was trapped in a life that had no future, no direction, no hope. But God.

But God, in His incredible mercy and grace, found me, redeemed me, and gave me a new life. God has done more than just pull me out of the pit I had dug for myself—He has transformed my life completely. In prison, He opened doors I never imagined possible. He gave me the opportunity to pursue an education, to study His Word, and to minister to others who are on the same dark path I once walked.

Today, I mentor men, I fellowship with people both here and beyond these walls, and God has blessed me with ministry opportunities that far exceed anything I could have dreamed of. Among these opportunities are writing and publishing a half dozen books in theology and working closely with the publishing arm of an international Christian ministry.

Paul was right: such were some of you. But God.

No matter how far gone you think you are, no matter how deep into darkness you’ve fallen, remember this: there is always hope, because But God changes everything. He redeems. He restores. He saves—to the uttermost.

SWEET JOKES

One day, a Woman wanted to know how her husband would react if she played a prank on him.

So she decided to write him a letter saying;
"I'm TIRED, I don't want to live with you anymore. I'm gone forever. BYE!"

After writing, she placed the letter on the table and then hid under the bed.

When her Husband came back home, he saw the letter and read it, he replied on the same Paper and then began to sing and dance; clapping his hands and rejoicing, and started changing his clothes.

He got his phone, dialed someone, and said;
"Hey babe, I'm just changing my clothes and then will join you. As for the other F0ol, it has finally dawned on her that I was fooling around with her, I wish I had known you earlier..See you soon honey!"

The husband walked out of the room.

In tears and very Upset, the woman got out from under the bed and decided to go and read what her husband wrote on the letter.

When she got the Letter, it says;
"I COULD see your feet under the bed, I didn't make any phone call..I am going to buy bread. Stand up, stop your silly games and prepare me a meal..I LOVE YOU!"

"Don't let fear or doubt hold you back from pursuing your dreams." - instance: J.K. Rowling was a single mother living on welfare when she started writing Harry Potter. She didn't let her circumstances discourage her from achieving her dreams.

Funke Akindele was so emotional while writing a tribute to her late mother. She gave the aged woman an assurance in her write-up. Details in comments. Photo credit@funkejenifaakindele/Instagram

When writing the story of your life, don’t let anyone else hold the pen.

"I give people their due credit where necessary as I am a firm believer in team work; I know my strengths, where I need assistance or guidance I am not afraid to ask or work with those who are strong in the areas I am not.

I was the one who contacted the Ghaanian producer, Vampîre, and flew him to Lagos in 2022. He co-produced JAIYE, WINNING, FIND SOMEBODY, LEGENDARY, and ATTENTION. I and my team wrote all those songs though the album failed to see daylight due to unforseen circumstances.

He's now claiming the song is his just because I shared the song with him and he did a demo. If the songs he's claiming I st0le are truly his, why then do I have all the data including when we started writing the song from scratch. He's doing all this because he was hoping for me to quit music.

My dear brother, stop using me to chãse cloūt. We can all WIN without bringing another person down. Even the producer has confimed that I wrote and recorded that song so please if you're out of ideas and need songwriting lessons, come to me and I'll help you. Despite everything that has happened, you are and will always remain my brother. I LOVE YOU BROTHER, KEEP WINNING." Mr P

Immersing yourself in well-written prose can improve your writing style, sentence structure, and overall communication clarity.

Believe it or not, the single most important component of goal setting is simply to write down your goals. Merely writing goals down increases your odds of achieving them by 42%. Failure is afraid of written goals, just as people are afraid of snakes. That is why Scripture says, 'Write the vision, make it plain'-Habakkuk 2:2. When your vision is put in writing, your mind acquires the type of clarity that makes implementing it as clear as day. When you write your goals, you also right your life.
