Myles Monroe of blessed memory once said in one of his books that ”when purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable". God created everyone for a glorious purpose and the only way to find that purpose is to go to God. Firstly, have a relationship with God through the sacrifice He made available for us- His Son Jesus. Believing and confessing Him as one's Lord and Saviour. Secondly, develop and ignite...

Some hours ago, I was scrolling through my picture gallery and was comparing my old pictures with the current ones. I smiled and I thought to myself …’how time flies’…Grateful to God for His faithfulness. I just want to encourage someone today to take time for your TOTAL self- spirit, soul and body as time flies and waits for no one. Ephesians 5:15-16 reminds us to be very careful how we live. We...

Do you often take note of alert interruption of radio broadcasts, CDs or tapes whenever you’re driving?  I was on my way out recently, listening to one of my favourite radio channels when suddenly it was altered. There was interruption to give radio traffic update and alert.  I almost did not want to listen to the alert but felt I should.  Interestingly the information given was for the local area...

Today’s encouraging Charge is from Matthew 4:1; Deut 8:3, Ezekiel 37:4. Jesus paid it all Jesus put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself Jesus offered Himself as sacrifice for sin forever Heb 10:12; 14 In the Old Testament, the blood of animals were shed by the priests on a yearly basis to atone for the sin of the nation. However, the yearly sacrifices of animals could not permanently take away si...

I am going through the story of Jacob lately and one of the parts that caught my attention was the story of Jacob and Laban’s daughter - Rachel and Leah. Jacob was shortchanged on his wedding night by Laban. He was given a wrong bride instead of Racheal whom he had laboured for, for seven years. Why did Laban do this? Laban mentioned that their culture did not permit younger ones to marry before t...

God dwells in the praises of His people. He does not dwell in the complaints of His people. A verse that came to mind was - “But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭22:3‬ ‭KJV‬‬ My God is a good Father. He ministered His Word into my heart with regards the situation I have been severally complaining about. God dwells in the praises of His people. He does not dwe...

Your strength will only come from settling down in complete dep...

If you listened to my podcast published on the 20th of June, this year, titled The Holy Spirit Truly Guides, where I talked about how God led me by His spirit to stop the ungodly relationship I was in as advised in 2 Corinth 6:14-17. “Do not become united with people who do not believe in Christ. God has made you right with himself. Right and wrong cannot work together. Light and dark cannot join...

(Luke 12:6-7) God has not forgotten you And He will not forget you. So do not worry God had not abandoned you And He will not abandon you So do not be afraid What is the value of your soul to God? Could your worth be defined by an amount of money? God doesn’t abandon or forget even the small sparrow he has made. How then could he forget or abandon you? What about the seemingly minor issues of your...

Does the Holy Spirit really guide? if he does, how? Dennis (not real name) was a caring and loving young guy he loved me a lot and proved this with incredible decisions he made for me- well, he said so, and because of me.

Speak the Word to your reality. Speak Word of God to your reality. Jesus spoke the Word of God to His reality when He was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭4:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬ When Satan tempted Jesus three times, He spoke the Word. He combated the Enemy’s temptation by drawing directly from the Word of God. Seeing Jesus feeling hungry, Satan told Jesus to...

(Acts 1:3) It must have been difficult and undoubtedly worrying time for Jesus’ followers after Jesus their friend was crucified on the Cross- facing humiliating death on the Cross, in Getsamene.

If only we knew that the challenge we face can make us a better person. If only we knew that our trials - the trials we face are allowed to make us more like Jesus. God can use the challenge you face to help you become like Christ. One of my dearest ones mentioned to me that he felt like physically fighting someone who was upsetting him. Interestingly, I was having a similar feelings such as hitti...

Today’s podcast was first posted 5years ago when our then 12yr old son made a profound and thought-provoking quote based on the family devotion we had with Scriptural focus on Proverbs 19- His quote was “Don’t always expect your blessings to be financial or materialistic because God may have added time to your life”. I immediately noted the quote down and also encouraged him to keep journal with h...

Saul, the chosen king of Isreal, started well. Humbled for being chosen to lead God’s people but for disobedience and wanting to be accepted by men, he was rejected! The same sin he condemned, he now condoned. When he was right with God, he swept the country clean of mediums and magicians. Saul, now desperate to hear from God because the Bible states that God was not speaking to Him again “...neit...

What drives you? What drives you -Desire to make God famous or desire to make ‘you’ famous? (Ephesians 4:1; Gen 11:4; Psalms 45:17) After the flood, all the people on the earth were speaking only one language. They all had good idea, great idea! Idea to make their name famous! “Then they said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city and a tower that reaches Heaven. Let’s make ourselves famous so we wo...

How do you deal with the fear of being hit by a truck? I used to avoid being side by side with a truck whenever I was driving, especially when I was turning around the round-about. This was for the fear of being crushed. The apprehension was so much that, whenever I saw a truck, I would rather reduce my speed and stayed behind the truck. And why did I feel this way? I observed that whenever I turn...

How to Experience God’s Presence Every organisation has her policy which employees and stakeholders must adhere by. When you also go to restaurants, there are standards that must be maintained to gain access and enjoy their services.

Someone says be fresh, be new, be you! This is real with God’s Word To anyone with an open mind- God’s Word is always fresh God’s Word is always new On a journey to study the Bible all over again, I asked that the Holy Spirit would keep the Word so fresh to me. I studied chapter one, prayed into it and the verse that most captured my heart is Gen 1:31 “And God saw every thing that he had made, and...
