Walk With Me #Deararn.

Life comes in seasons, we live in cycles. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. Psalm 19:2-4 NLT

Some lessons are learned just walking paths; some are right at the gates whilst some you must dig through tunnels. As varied as we are, we find that God has left for each one of us lessons on the Freeways of life. Whatever we do, we must pay attention. The billboards of life are just as important as the handbills. Some milestones are legible, others have seen better days and so can barely be seen....

Do you know that silence has a voice? Sometimes speaking louder than the noises that permeate the world we live in. Silence commands the richer conversations of the mind. It speaks peace and wellbeing to the pure and holy but it thunders terror to the wicked.

When your path is lined with detractors.   They tell you to dream and you follow their advice and you discover that they never meant it.    Joseph’s birth separated him unto favour. He was the child of the favoured wife and a special baby at that. His father loved him, maybe because his mother Rachael did not stay around to take care of him.  His brothers who happened to be older could not stand h...

They were with the Master in the boat. The days preceding had been busy but He was on top of His game, until, they thought, the waves came and their lives seemed to be in danger. They went to the back of the boat and the Master was sleeping. Really! “Master don’t you care?’ , was their desperate question. Relax, I am still here, exercise your faith folks, Oga reprimanded His followers. He looked b...

Who should get the blame? Is it you, your parents or the gods? Today, On #Deararn, the Walk with Me series with Anne Ajadi, we discover the power, or not, of getting entangled in the blame game. We will explore the possibilities that abound if we entertain other perspectives.

The treasure is in the dirt Gold assumes its purity in the fire Suffering is an incubator for greatness The message is in the mess. Purpose is hiding in your story. God is unveiling you and His purpose for your life

Forgiveness is a willful decision to release the feeling of anger, bitterness, resentment, overtly or covertly wishing you could pay back in the same coin.   It is being deliberate about excusing the frailties or shortcomings of others. It is understanding that all things being equal, no one in their right spirit and mind would set out to hurt another. Remember we all have the breath of God inside...

Go home, fix whatever needs to be fixed and then, you will be ready for the world. Any victory outside the home is empty. What is the use of achieving incredible feats that mean nothing to the people you care deeply about? Picture winning so many trophies, getting applauded by the whole world and returning home, and there is no one to receive you. Tragedy! How will it feel when there is no one to...

I remember your genuine faith, for you share the faith that first filled your grandmother Lois and your mother, Eunice. And I know that same faith continues strong in you. 6 This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you. 2 Timothy 1:5-6

“Listen, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD alone. 5 And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. 6 And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. 7 Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you...

JOHN 1 AND 2

Knock knock! Who's there? Jesus is at the door. Do you know Him? Do you recognize Him? How would you receive Him? What do you think He would say to you? I have an idea. He is about to introduce Himself to you in the way you have not known Him. Things are about to change in your life. Something new is about to happen? Are you ready?

What is your story? How is your life? The woman, let us call her Jane, had such a journey. In today's parlance, we will say she had been unlucky with men. She married five of them, and they all did not fill the void she felt on the inside. Each one looked like it, but as soon as she got in, she realized that she had made another mistake. She had to endure many snide remarks. No one understood...

Do you know, that every battle you face is actually a dig at your christian witness? The questions the devil asks you are designed to make you doubt God. The christians antidote is to know who they are and to learn how to respond to the devils antics.

"Not my own" Those words jumped at me as the young man pronounced them as he led prayers at one of our intercessory meetings. The context, of course, was the story of the two women who approached the king to help determine whose baby was the living one. I was drawn into the discourse, and the more I studied, the more I saw that the question was an identity issue. The object was a baby, a...

My wake up call was when I ended a conversation with a sister inn distress and I was drained. Even though I know certain situations can be tasking, this one had a tint of urgency to it. I decided to peel it back and realized I was running on empty. In fact, had been for a minute. Life had happened to me many times before and is happening again but I was breathless and had no visible or tangible so...

a)     We have an identity   The whole essence of numbering the children of Israel was to give them an identity.  We matter. We belong somewhere. There are peculiarities of our identity. If we truly understand who we are, we will carry ourselves a lot better.

Who are you? The question we must all answer at some point in our lives. Whatever the answer is, will determine what our value is. In this episode, we come up close and personal as we attempt to answer the gnawing question. Find out what Anne has to say about who she is...

  The devil is adept at sowing his evil seeds, causing us to fall out of fellowship with God and our fellow brethren. He isolates us to have full reign with us, and when done wreaking havoc, he is fulfilled, leaving us lonely and feeling lost. We convince ourselves that we do not need to be accountable to anybody, maybe even buy into the lie that only God needs to be reported to; when we go that r...

Then they moved on from Bethel. While they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and had great difficulty. 17 And as she was having great difficulty in childbirth, the midwife said to her, “Don’t despair, for you have another son.” 18 As she breathed her last—for she was dying—she named her son Ben-Oni. But his father named him Benjamin. Genesis 35:16ff Never again will...

"What is in a name?", a line from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Beloved, your name is the gateway to your person, it is how we catch your attention Names define your individuality, they colour your future. Your name is the announcement you make to the world about your personality and in many ways, your direction in Ife .

If you have ever faced rejection, you would have secretly questioned your identity. It would have felt like you did not fit in the room. a question asked, someone’s action or inaction may have sent you into the path of self-discovery. Their words may have cut deep into your soul, making you feel less than or the acts could have put you in the evil train of self-doubt and defeat.   It is almost imp...
