Similar, yet different
Do you ever get this feeling that you’ll meet someone like you? Perhaps, not in looks but in character and personality. Well, I did! After the first few conversations, I was left wondering: How can we be similar, yet different? As the year progresses, the similarities come up left, right and centre. Now, it’s me […]
No time to waste
While leading the prayer session at Church, I had an inclination to pray for grace to evangelize. Even after praying, the thought wouldn’t leave. On the bus home, “No time to waste” came to mind. If you’re an avid fan of James Bond, you’ll know the latest movie is titled “No time to die”. At […]
The kind of prayer that works
A few articles ago, I wrote about standing in the gap. Recently, I have come to an understanding about this and the kind of prayer that works. Since I shared the first article here, I thought to share this here. In August last year, while praying for a country, God began to speak to me. […]
God’s church is hurting
There’s no easy way to say this but God’s church is hurting. The one He came to die for is in agonizing pain. What do I mean? Have you taken a look around lately? Have you spoken to someone who used to believe? Or someone who was a regular church goer? Today, I had a […]
Are you people pleasing at your own expense?
People pleasing. The number of times I’ve heard this word, or should I say phrase is uncountable. Today, I want to bring this close to home. I’d like that you and I answer this question honestly: Are you people pleasing at your own expense? What exactly does it mean to people please? Looking at the […]
The fond memories of Christmas
Dear Reader, Merry Christmas! This year, we’ll go through the fond memories. How was it like as a child? What are the fond memories you have of Christmas? Tomatoes. As a child, most years, my nuclear family and I would journey to Lagos from where we lived in Nigeria. Christmas mornings were dedicated to the […]
Contrary to popular belief
Yesterday, as I watched a book review, I heard the writer say this; Most times, the Holy Spirit gives us actions contrary to popular belief. This line piqued my interest, so I decided to write an article from it. When Jesus was leaving, He promised to send a helper. This helper is the Spirit of […]
Leading to Jesus
On Monday, my friend and I marked the highlights of our year. Humorously, we were going to forget one of the most important events, our graduation. Today, I began thinking about how these experiences led and are still leading to Jesus. How? Why? What? When I started planning my graduation, I had an idea. My […]
How to speak the truth in love
This year has been such a roller coaster of emotions, at least for me. From people speaking the truth however they want, to words being uttered out of context. How to speak the truth in love stems from a place of understanding. Understanding that the truth not spoken in love will not have the effect […]
In case you’re unsure, God can fill the void
In May of this year, I remember crying because a family lost their breadwinner. It was so emotional for me because it was a young family with little children. Although I’d been praying for them, I couldn’t help but think of the void left. At once, I felt the Holy Spirit begin to ask me […]
