I have been praying to God to help me be more fluent in tongues, I have always tried to pray for long in tongues than in understanding by allowing my spirit pray as directed by the Holy Spirit. Last night, I also had that same desire burning in my heart and as soon as I rounded off my prayers, the Holy spirit directed me to 1 Corinthians 14:11-16: 11.Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. 12. Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. 13. Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. 14. For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. 16. Else when thou shalt ...

I remember the night I finally broke the relationship, I cried. I cried so much that I did not want to stop, my eyes were shot red and I almost got an headache. I was bitter, I asked why it couldn't be him, I was angry, I was sorry I had hurt him. I asked God to let it be him but I just could not disobey because I already heard the voice warning me about remaining in the relationship; but I still loved him (I thought). But one day as I thought about him God said something that I would never forget: If you are with him, you would never find your purpose, you would not discover me nor your place in my kingdom, you would be limited and just live ordinarily. There are some company we keep in life that will limit our destiny. It is not that they intentionally want to limit us, but our incompatibility in terms of destiny with them will make us unable to find ourselves when we are with them. Now, when God chooses, He would try to separate us from them to help us discover ourselves in ...

So, I got a message from someone to write about life. When I saw the message at first, I was like; OK, what aspect of life do you want me to write about and he said not the different aspects of life but just life as a whole entity. He gave some illustrations as to what he was looking forward to read and sincerely speaking, I did not know the answer to give. He called me days ago and asked for the answer and I decided to write this looking up to the Holy spirit for insight. Life life life This is a broad concept to discuss and so I would just write as inspired. There are different angles from which life could be explained but can we really dicepher life? The person asked me what is meant if one is said to be living or to have lived a good or bad life and I was totally speechless and few minutes later, I read an article by Rick Warren, the writer of "A purpose driven life". He said "life is preparation for eternity" and that keyed me in. He said, God did not put u...

I thought I would be broken if I got the news I just got, but funny enough, I am not. I have been thanking God, praising Him for what happened, singing songs to glorify Him. A particular song has been on replay ever since I heard the news "Thank you for being God" by Travis Greene. I cried when I heard but  I am not sad neither am I depressed, I see this as one of those fire I must walk through to be tested in order to come out purified, I see God using this to make me become stronger, I see greater testimonies on the way, I see the situation as God's way of making my future testimony sweeter. I see the story as one that would help me reach out to other people in the future who may be in the same situation. I see God turning the situation for my good; my friend sent a voice note about God working everything for my good. I don't see the failure, I see a stepping stone to success, I see God saying: you are coming out stronger and better. God is indeed good, as I paused...

Regarding this blog, I have to confess that I have been very scared. I have been afraid of writing about  things that I don't live; being an hypocrite. I have been scared of living a life unworthy of the calling upon my life. I have prayed countlessly for God to help me, l have postponed starting the blog as seen in my first post and i have  really being afraid to start this assignment. However, whenever I prayed, focusing on God as my help, I always feel a certain peace and that is one thing that has encouraged me on this assignment. And as I prayed some days ago, I was directed to read Isaiah 41:14 and it reads:              Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob, little Israel, do not fear, for I myself will help you,”  declares the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. I felt gladness after reading that and I was assured of God's help. This year is a very busy one for me as it comes with responsibilities...

I tried opening this site days ago but I was not able to and so, I decided to seek the assistance of a friend and that led to the writing of this post. I thought about blogging in September 2016 when I discovered my skills of writing and I did a lot of research concerning blogging. However, as time passed, I let  go of the idea and simply uploaded my poems on Facebook to be reviewed by friends and any one who cared to comment. S eptember 2017, I met Teefaith of Teens meet online who introduced me to Debbie Agboye and after series of conversations with her and reading her blog posts, I recalled my idea of wanting to have a blog. There was this particular night we spoke and after our discussions, I had a conversation with another friend which revolved round the activities we engaged in that day. And when he saw one of the articles I wrote, he pointed out that I could own a blog; and telling Debbie that, she encouraged me to open the site immediately. Wow!!! I was scared becau...
