Discovery

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.

September 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 because I felt I was not prepared and so, I just decided to wait and continue writing before opening the site.

I went for an evening service in church the following day, and during the service, I got an inspiration of the blog's name to be "God chasers". I battled with my heart because I thought the blog would be named by me, I mean it would have my name as its nomenclature, gradually God brought me to the understanding of why it had to be that and I gave in. Accepting the name, I checked if there was another site with the name and there existed one owned by Jeannie and Tommy Tenney. Then I received God seekers and God Cravers. Our God is not an author of confusion, so I patiently waited and when I was trying to open the site, my friend encouraged me to use a neutral name but the Holy Spirit insisted on the name already given.

Let me say this, the Holy Spirit inspired me to open this site about two weeks ago but I felt it was too big a task and so I waited. 
Right now, the confidence I feel is unexplainable and i can't seem to understand it myself. Before I conclude, let me say this, when I conceived the blogging idea in 2016, I only thought of writing about societal issues, nothing relating to God, in fact, I did not see the need to write for Christ. However, my meeting with Debbie shaped my thinking and now I know that if writing to impart lives is God's will for my life, then I would pursue that purpose. 

Jesus is doing this, I am not...

Jesus is turning it...

Jesus turned it...

Let's do exploits for Jesus

A Review on The Movie; THE TRAIN by Mount Zion Production

Image
So, I watched the movie; The Train on Sunday and I was all shades of reactions, from ahhing to wowing. At some points I prayed, laughed, spoke to the person beside me and had deep thoughts within myself. The movie chronicles the real life story of Evangelist Mike Bamiloye, and it is a movie indeed for the season. Anybody who truly wants to know the definition of Purpose, must watch it. Anyone who wants to know the meaning of Walking with God, must watch it.  Purpose is not Instagram photos! Purpose is Death! You die to your senses and fleshly desires! Purpose is Crazy Faith! Purpose is giving yourself up! Purpose is being foolish in the eyes of man and seeing through the eyes of God. Watching the movie, I learnt so many lessons and I would love to share some here: 1. The Rocky Christian Journey:  The Christian Journey is not an all smooth or all rosy one. There are road bumps on the road, and it  takes the mercies of God and deep faith to wa...

IF HE DID IT BEFORE

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...

PLEASE OBEY

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 ...
