Abk Sadiq, a 400l industrial chemistry department student of the University of Abuja died last night in his sleep. Just yesterday, he was very active on twitter…and one of his last tweets was something about death. See it after the cut…May his soul rest in peace, amen.
“Someone actually praying against death?” he asked.
It's very sad that such a budding young man should mysteriously die like that. I mean, the guy just laughed at someone who was praying against death and that same death just grabbed him away in the middle of the night. The strangest of things do happen in this world. Science would proffer reasons why the young man died but did the so called reason have to happen after what he had tweeted?
The Bible in Proverbs 18:21 states that, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue." It could be in the form of what you have spoken, written, tweeted, instagrammed, etc. In however form death is mentioned, whether knowingly or unknowingly, it is as powerful as in the other form. The same Bible in Proverbs 21: 23 states that, "Those who guard their mouths and their tongues keep themselves from calamity."
So let us be careful in what we say or think whether or not as a joke or not, because this our little body organ is capable of life and death indeed.
