Libya: When War Becomes a Tech Battleground

DCLM Daily Manna – Priceless Wisdom From Heaven

Topic: Priceless Wisdom From Heaven [DCLM Daily Manna 9 October 2019 Daily Devotional By Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi] Text:  John 4:1-26 (KJV) 1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John, 2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,) 3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee. 4 And he must needs go through Samaria. 5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour. 7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink. 8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.) 9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with ...

Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – Imitation-The Limitation Of Destiny

Topic: Imitation – The Limitation Of Destiny [Seeds of Destiny 9 October 2019 Devotional] Imitation is the foundation for limitation; to be the best, you must be yourself. SCRIPTURE:  Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God. –  3 John 1:11 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:  Imitation is the foundation for limitation; to be the best, you must be yourself. Imitation is the copying of a pattern of activity or thought of a person. From our anchor Scripture above, it is clear that there is an imitation that is good, void of offence and free of competitive jealousy. On the contrary, there is an imitation that is bad. This type of imitation tries to outdo, undo and outshine others. It is potent with competitive jealousy and strife. The truth is, imitation is the foundation for limitation; the struggle to be like somebody is the reason for nobodies. Nothing brings out the best in you like being yourse...

Horizon Guyot

Horizon Guyot . Horizon Guyot is an underwater volcanic mountain with a flat top in the Mid-Pacific Mountains west of Hawaii and northeast of the Line Islands. An elongated ridge over 300 kilometres (190 mi) long and 4.3 kilometres (2.7 mi) high, it stretches in a northeast–southwest direction, rising to a depth of 1,443 metres (4,734 ft). It was probably formed by a hotspot, but evidence is conflicting. Its volcanic activity occurred between 100.5 and 82 million years ago during the Cretaceous Period. Around 89 million years ago, carbonate deposition from lagoonal and reefal environments set in and formed limestone. Volcanic islands developed on Horizon Guyot as well and were colonised by plants. Pelagic ooze has accumulated on the seamount, forming a thick layer that has been further modified by ocean currents, landslides, and various organisms living on it. Ferromanganese crusts have been deposited on exposed rocks.
