His strength is made perfect in my weakness

Hello , Godcravers God's mercy is constant, immediate and intentional; It doesn't delay, neither does it fade. I prayed this morning for forgiveness and victory over a particular weakness and I was directed to read Isaiah 12:1-2  1. And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou was angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comforted me. 2. Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. It was just like a speeding trailer, the response was prompt and immediate. God assured me of His faithfulness in keeping His promise of being merciful, He indeed comforted me and told me that he is my strength and my strong tower. When I was about to pray about that weakness this morning, I felt frustrated because I was fed up with battling with it. But then I remembered a particular video by godlydating101 that I watched which talks about how to be pure. In th

I have been trying to write an article since but I just was not able to. However, one thing I have diacovered is this, my mind has been the one calculating what to write and what not to and so I am grateful that I  was not able to write. As I was battling with that, God said, "let me be the one to tell you what to write". Seriously, I am so glad that the Holy Spirit has always been my muse for all my articles and I think that is why I was not able to pen anything as a result of my attempt to write as my mind prompts me. Being led by the spirit of God is one of the signs of being a child of God and I am glad that this is evident in what God is doing through this blog. There were times when I would have a fascinating idea in my head about what to write, but God so good, He would totally change what I write to what he wants me to write. At times, I would write an article and I would be surprised at where it would end because it would be far from what I intended to write.  There

Spending time with God

Intimacy with the spirit is a function of a consistent fellowship- unknown. So many people desire to know God and hear from him but they do not see this happening, they feel that there is just this emptiness and void that needs to be filled. Knowing God and being intimate with him does not just happen by accident, it is as a result of consistent fellowship and communion with Him that is built on regular and intentional communication. In human relations, communication has been regarded as a very vital factor that cannot be taken for granted. Friendships, relationships, marriages, business partnerships and other human relationships are built on how well the parties involved communicate. Now, imagine you just met a new friend; you exchange contacts and then you refuse to call him and whenever he calls, you do not pick his calls. However, you go all round professing that he is your friend; please if I may ask, how did you build that friendship? Here, God is the new  friend; you met him

Freedom from addictions; My salvation story

"I sing in the choir but I am addicted to porn and I derive pleasure from masturbation". That was me years ago; I would watch porn in church with my friends, yeah, I just said "in church", masturbate at home and sing in the choir on Sunday. My life revolved around chance and I became very addicted. Writing this is not easy for  me, because it is unveiling something I had always kept quiet about. But who am I not to tell it in order  to help others suffering get free. Like I said, writing this is not easy for me and I wanted to stop, but I kept getting pushed to write. I got an insight from the Holy Spirit  to write about getting freedom from addictions and I was to focus on pornography and masturbation, taking a cue from my personal experience. My friend was fiddling with her phone in church and I peeped to know what she was doing. Alas, it was porn! She was watching porn, I felt reluctant to watch at first, but as time passed, I started watching. It was terrible
