Mayokun’s Memos

This week’s episode is for anyone who has allowed laziness to creep in. Joseph clearly had God with him, but where God took him still required hard work. From managing Potiphar’s household to serving as governor in Egypt, Joseph had serious responsibilities. Being a believer and having the Spirit of God in you does not mean hard work goes out the window.

Scripture, and probably loads of sermons you’ve heard, have told you to arise and shine. But what about when you just don’t want to shine? When you’d rather hide or run away? This week’s episode of Mayokun’s Memos addresses those feelings and reminds you of who God has called you to be. You are light, even when you don’t feel like shining.

It’s easy to acknowledge and believe that God is with you when things are going well. But what about when bad things happen? Is He still with you then? This week’s episode is a reminder that God’s presence is not conditional on the circumstances around you. He is with you whether you feel Him or not. The sooner you realise this, the sooner you can experience the joy and strength that comes from kn...

“Lord, help me to see.” This week and last week’s episodes are all about sight. So much unnecessary fear and anxiety can come when we fail to see what God is doing and forget that He is still present. Like Elisha’s servant, we can find ourselves afraid simply because we cannot see what is already around us. So this week, the prayer is simple: Lord, help me to see.

“Lord, help me to see.” This week and next week’s episodes are all about sight. So much unnecessary fear and anxiety can come when we fail to see what God is doing and forget that He is still present. Like Elisha’s servant, we can find ourselves afraid simply because we cannot see what is already around us. So this week, the prayer is simple: Lord, help me to see.

You have to remember. Remember what God has done for you. Remember how He has shown up for you. Remember that He is faithful. This week's episode is all about the importance of recounting your testimonies. When your faith feels weak, looking back at God's faithfulness can give you the strength you need to keep trusting Him.

This week's episode is an encouragement not to cast away your confidence. In seasons of suffering and trials, this is the time to hold on to your faith, not let go of it. The enemy may use job loss, financial troubles, relationship issues and other difficulties to shake you, but don't lose sight of what is really at stake: your faith. Hold on tightly. Don't cast away your confidence.

"Do not despise the day of small beginnings" (Zechariah 4:10). But what happens when those "small beginnings" last weeks, months, years, or even decades? If you're feeling tired or discouraged, this week's episode is for you. Don't let discouragement cause you to despise what God has entrusted to you. Stay faithful with the little, because God sees it all.

Speak, and keep on speaking. Your words matter. Scripture tells us that life and death are in the power of the tongue, and we will eat the fruit of what we speak. If you want to see life, make it your mission to continually declare the Word of God. This week's episode is a reminder that your words have the power to shape your life.

God wants to use you. Christ lives in you, and He wants to be revealed through your life. Don't leave the responsibility of expressing Christ to a select few "special" believers. That's not what Scripture teaches. This week's episode is a reminder that wherever you are, God wants to make Himself known through you.

This week's episode is for anyone who desperately wants to do God's will but is so afraid of getting it wrong that they've stopped moving altogether. Fear has left you frozen. Today, God is reminding you not to be afraid. He loves you too much to abandon you, even if you make a mistake

This week, we continue where we left off by examining our desires. Has greed quietly crept into your heart, or can you genuinely say that Christ is enough? Jesus plus nothing is everything. This episode is a call to guard your heart and pursue what truly lasts.

Is Jesus truly your priority, or has He become an add-on to your life? Someone to include in your bio rather than the centre of your life? This week's episode invites you to pause and reflect. What are you really chasing? And does your pursuit reflect your priorities?

"Storms reveal what seasons conceal." That phrase stuck with me. It's easy to think our faith is strong until life tests it. This week's episode is a reminder to examine the foundation you're building on. Is your life built on Jesus' words, and are you acting on them? Because when the storms come, only one foundation will stand.

"Is it that deep though?" It may sound harsh, but it's a question many of us need to ask ourselves when worry starts to take over. Jesus tells us not to worry, but to seek first His Kingdom. This week's episode is a reminder to stop giving your worries so much attention and start placing your trust in God.

This week’s episode is for anyone who has been trusting God to come through in a specific area of life. Sometimes it feels like nothing is happening, but that doesn’t mean God is absent. His promises are never empty. Even when you can’t see the wind, God is still able to move in ways you didn’t expect. Don’t lose hope. God can surprise you. 

Sin can be a slippery slope. It rarely starts with a big decision. More often, it begins with small compromises that we tolerate and entertain. This week’s episode is a reminder to deal with sin at the root. It might be a TV show, an artist you listen to, or something else that is stirring up sinful desires in you. Whatever it is, if it is drawing you away from God, it has to go.

David came home to a burnt town. His wives and children were gone. Even his own men wanted to stone him. Yet in the midst of that devastating situation, David found strength in the Lord. This week’s episode is for anyone going through a tough season and thinking about giving up. There is strength available to you in God. Like David, you can find the courage to keep going, even when everything arou...

God can speak to you through people, so don’t neglect wise counsel. It is not a flex to handle everything on your own. God placed us in community for a reason. At the same time, not all counsel is godly counsel, so discernment matters. This week’s episode is all about counsel and wisdom.

In a world where we are constantly exposed to bad news, pain, and suffering through social media, is it possible that we’re becoming desensitised? Even as believers, have we slowly stopped being moved by the things that once stirred our hearts? This week’s episode is a reminder that compassion still matters. As followers of Christ, we are called to care, to feel, and to respond. Home of Happiness...

This week’s episode is for the people who are so focused on their inadequacies that they’ve forgotten it was never really about them. It’s about the God who is backing you and partnering with you. Your weaknesses do not disqualify you when God is involved. Stop focusing so much on what you lack and remember who is with you.

“Have you prayed about it though?” - The next time you catch yourself about to complain, pause and ask yourself that question. For many of us, complaining has become second nature, but the Word of God instructs us to do all things without complaining (Philippians 2:14). Constant complaining can be a sign that something is off in the control centre: your heart. This week’s episode is a reminder to...

Good things are happening for other people, and suddenly 'the pressure is getting worser.' This week’s episode is for anyone who feels caught in the comparison trap. God is calling you back to fix your eyes on Him and Him alone. Don’t trip by focusing on what’s happening in someone else’s life.

Having faith in what God has promised can feel easier when something is happening, when there is movement or progress. But what about when life feels quiet? When everything feels repetitive, slow, and a bit mundane? What do you do then? This week’s episode is for anyone in that season. If things feel slow right now, this one is for you.

This week’s episode is for anyone who feels like they’ve drifted. Life happened, habits slipped, and now there’s a weight of shame and disappointment that’s hard to shake. If that’s you, I want you to know this. It’s not too late. Jesus hasn’t changed His mind about you. He is still calling you, and you can come back to Him.
