(FOREIGN) President Donald Trump’s Former Campaign Manager Paul Manafort Sentenced To 47 months In Prison



   President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort has been sentenced to 47 months in prison, following his conviction last year for tax and bank fraud. The sentence of just under four years in jail was much more lenient than the term set out in federal guidelines which prosecutors had highlighted, calling for between 19.5 and 24 years behind bars.

   But US District Judge T.S.Ellis described the guidelines as “excessive” and “way out of whack”. He did, however, order the 69-year-old to pay a fine of $50,000 (€44,650) and $24 million (€21.43 million) in restitution. During a hearing in Alexandria, Virginia, Manafort asked for mercy but did not express remorse for his actions. He appeared in court in a wheelchair, said to be because of foot pain.

God’s Promise of Fruitfulness By Pastor Faith Oyedepo

Dear Reader,

A wonderful New Month to you! God’s awesome presence shall be made manifest in your home, bringing about great signs and wonders. If you have waited a while to hold your baby in your hands, I am glad to let you know that this month is your time of visitation!

Barrenness is an issue that transverse geographical, economic and social barriers. This challenge has made many people engage in unspeakable things, so they could be called parents or be successful in life. Many people have found themselves in strange places, sacrificing to strange gods; yet, to no avail. The truth is, your long-awaited answer is in Jesus Christ. From the beginning, God blessed man: And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth (Genesis 1:28).

Matthew 6:31, “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?”

Text: Matthew 6:25-34

The Greek word used here for “thought” is “merimnao” and denotes “to be anxious or careful”. In this passage, as well as the parallel passage in Luke 12:22-32, Jesus is commanding us not to worry or be anxious about our material needs being met. It would be impossible to have no thought whatsoever about our physical needs. Even Jesus thought about His need for money to pay taxes (Mt. 17:24-27). We are simply not to be preoccupied with thinking about riches or spending our time worrying about necessities. These things will be added unto us as we seek first the Kingdom of God.

. . . not having mine own righteousness . . . — Philippians 3:9

  People go through many doors which do not lead to the Kingdom of God. Some try the door of good works. They say, “I can get to heaven if I only do enough good things, because God will honor all the good things I do.” It’s wonderful to do good things, but we cannot do enough good things to satisfy God. God demands perfection, and we’re not perfect.

In a multitude of words transgression is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is prudent. – Proverbs 10:19, The Amplified Bible

We believers need to start watching our language! We need to quit throwing words around like they weren’t important and start using them like our lives depended on it–because, according to the Word of God, they do! (Proverbs 18:21).

Too many of us have what Proverbs 19:1 calls a perverted mouth. Having a perverted mouth means more than lying and using profanity. It means having a disobedient mouth. It means saying things that are out of line with the Word of God.

“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus”. 2 Timothy 2:1 KJV

The grace of God upon your life is intended by God to take you high above contrary situations and circumstances so that you can soar where others are crawling. In other words, when men are saying that there is a casting down, you are saying ‘there is a lifting up.’ That is what makes you different from the world! And they cannot understand how you function.
