The eve

Just before dawn; the darkness is darkest

Just before a birth the devil is furious

Just before your big day…

The enemy does all it can to spoil it

Your eve is just moments away before your celebration

Of course; you would have been swamped with thing to do

So many people needs you almost at the same time

But no matter how busy, please pause to pray

Prayer is work; infact it is hard work

But prayer based on God’s word is the anchor

Do not think because you are happy, everyone else is

The reason for your celebration may be the cause of their anger

The New Year approaches

Another fresh start beckons

Do not get complacent child of God

Do not be unwise my fellows

Pray in tongues; Pray in understanding

Pray standing, Pray walking

Pray cooking, Pray working

But Pray

Don’t play nice,

Stop whatever wants to stop you

Your new dawn approaches

Take your victory, war in prayers

And you shall seek me, and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13

Check

As a year ends

It is important to reflect on the outing year

Where was I in January; where am I now

Take a stock of your year

Were you stagnate while the months counted

Was any loss recorded; was any progress made

In taking stock of your days; you are guided

To make the coming year count

Check your circle of friendship

Check what you have exposed your mind to

Check what you have given your time to

That’s a good way to access your year

Nothing ventured; nothing gained

No wishful talks; no daydreams

Whatever you sow in your year is what you reap

So check your harvest(s)

Prayer must be backed with actions

Faith must be seconded by works

Negative talkers should not expect positives

Expectations must be based on activations

If you don’t want the harvest; don’t sow the seed

While the ending year count down grows louder

Take a time apart to check on you

Turn the full light on yourself. Do it now

Then you can pen down a suitable New Year resolution

Teach us O Lord to number our days so as to apply our hearts unto wisdom Psalm90:12

My Christmas Discovery

I joined my children to watch their cartoons today and I must confess I was disturbed by what I saw

Lots of the shows was Christmas themed. But there is zero mention of the Christ being celebrated.

Emphasis are on holidays, the Christmas tree, the Father Christmas, party, feasting but deliberately shunning that the day means Christ Mass, or simply put; His birthday.

It dawned on me that if we do not take time to teach our children, a lot of what they watch will give them all sorts of ideas of Christmas. So I encourage all believers to take a moment to explain the meaning of this day and correct the distracting emphasis on objects such as the tree, chicken or even the party.

Christmas is a day of a promise delivered. A day God gave us His best to free us from our worst.

For God so loved the world that He gave us His only begotten Son John3:16

Jesus is the reason for all the merriment. Let’s keep the emphasis on Him and deliberately do all we can to educate all.

IT HAPPENED

A long time ago

There was a prophecy

A birth that would change the world…

On a certain day the prophecy HAPPENED

As I ruminated on the essence of this day

I realized that an age long prophecy came to pass

What the devil never wanted; HAPPENED

The word spoken has become flesh

As I join the world to wish Jesus Happy Birthday

I also like to announce…

What the devil thought will not happen for me…

HAS HAPPENED

Again; light has overcome darkness

You need to know how hard the devil tried to stop this day

So my fellows no matter how impossible the goal is; it will HAPPEN

No matter how long you have waited; it will HAPPEN

                                      ……

Christmas is Christ’s Birthday

Let Christ be at the center of our merry making

On this day let Him be at the center of our conversations

Because I also realized that some don’t know what the day really is for

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS

TODAY YOU ARE CELEBRATED

True Riches

No pain, no gain

No labour, no favour

No fasting, no feasting

No grace, no good

The pursuit of money often lead to many paths

True enduring riches doesn’t spring up overnight, except by inheritance

A little here a little there

With help from above you will get there

It is a wonder the path some choose to attain wealth

They could go to extreme ends just to make money

By all evil method possible

Any extent; without a regard for their fellows

True riches is available to all

Come from the poorest background, or the richest

You can from anywhere get to the top

True riches is not without its price; but it gives true peace

I know the route I am taking up

And I can reproduce same no matter where I find myself

The secret is always in the secret place

My intimacy with my God I do not joke with

Rich in God; rich in friendships

Rich in favour; rich in ideas

Rich in help; rich in health

True riches gives all round wealth

Some of those you envy cannot sleep soundly

The devil plagues them with fear

They drown their sorrow with substances

Because the source of their wealth is questionable

Have peace of mind

Have joy in life

Have pleasures untold

Have the truest riches

But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today. Deuteronomy 8:18

Don’t forget to share

Fate or Faith

There's a destination ahead of all
A predestined place by God
A wonderful place to get to
A place of dreams fulfilled and joy untold

There's a place of fate
A place for those who chose to accept defeat
A place unlike God's planned destination
A place for those who will not fight for God's best

Fight the good fight of faith
Faith is a journey of war
A fight against fate
A fight to have God's best irrespective...

It is a war against the norm
A battle of mind...
A mind renewed by the word of God
A battle against Satan's opinion

It is a daily battle
A battle that starts from a place of discovery
Discovery of God's intended plan for me
A battle you must win

Don't accept your present fate
There's a much better plan
You can have that baby, job or spouse
You can live free of sickness, debt or curse

Know the provision God has made for you
This means study His word, your Bible
Your faith will build up as you do this
Then you can challenge fate and overcome by faith

I will not accept any unpleasant fate I will have God's best.

For I know the thoughts I have for you says the Lord, thoughts to prosper you not to harm you, thoughts to give you hope and a future Jeremiah 29:11

No Shame

Ordinary people

We are just ordinary people

Living ordinary lives

Going about our business normally

But doing extra ordinary things

Untitled, unranked, but enlisted

It is not rocket science

You do not need voluminous curriculum vitae

All that is expected is that you be committed

Totally bought over by the Lord’s assignment

The Lord wants the world saved

He needs ordinary men and women

Who have an extra ordinary love for Him

And are willing to do His every bid

Start where you are

Talk to someone, smile, and share a word

Just have a sense of duty as you engage in your normal duty

The man or woman you meet today may need your Godly counsel

Do not pass by an opportunity to be good

Act on the promptings of the Holy Spirit

Say a word of prayer for the fellow whose picture came to your mind

It is so simple to be a blessing

Just have the mindset as you go about your normal day

Your ordinary day will be a most fulfilling one

When you think of how many smiles you brought to peoples face

It is not so much in the big things

Show you care in the little things too

It is that simple, and there’s more

For the good you do today

A bounty reward awaits you

The Lord is not a slave driver

Each worker gets paid fully

Everywhere Jesus went He was doing good, Be a Jesus to someone today

Trending

What makes your hot topic?

What do you share on the Medias?

What are you known for?

I call out Christians

I call out lovers of Christ

I call out to you, yes you

Have you made Jesus your trend lately?

Why must I discus Him only on Sundays?

Why must I hide the fact that He comes soon

I am not ashamed of the gospel it is the power of God unto salvation.

Truth is the world out there is in chaos, they are confused the good news of Jesus is the way out. People need hope. You will be amazed of how much hopelessness is out there, share your faith with one. Share your testimony. Whatever God has done for you make it a trend.

HELLLOooo!!!

I have been speaking for a while

I noticed my friend had gone silent

I glanced his way

He was far gone in the dream land

At what point I lost him to sleep I do not know

But I was disappointed

I had poured my heart to one that was not there

I had spoken and I was not heard

No feedback could be gotten

My words were gone with the wind

My friend realized his wrong and apologized

But, will I want to repeat the motions?

My disappointment brought me to a realization

My good friend was just been human

However, I have one that neither slumber nor sleep

I have one that will always hear me

Like the prodigal, I realized; it’s time I talk to HIM

So I arose packed my bag and left

As I walked home I started talking to Him

And remembered the words of a popular hymn

Oh what peace we often forfeit

O what needless pain we bear

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer

I learnt my lesson years back and am wiser now

My simple advice, Talk to God more

It pays to pray, Pray with His words

Talk to Him about all issues

Do you know Him?

So many people do not know who God is, yet they cannot deny His existence.

God is in all. The great hand that upholds the universe.

The seeing eyes that nothing is hidden before.

The know it all that sees your hidden thoughts.

So many people do not know of His works.

The witty creator that formed bones in a woman’s womb.

The wonder worker that created the seas and its innumerable dwellers.

The tamer of mammals, the Lord of all creation.

So many people do not know His ways.

The self-existing God who became world ruler without an election.

The one who is as ancient yet forever current

The uncreated kingmaker that uses the weak to confound the strong

So many people do not understand His might

And truly no one has seen the full extent of His power

Unmatched by the strongest beast, ever strong, forever portent

Nothing can be compared or likened to His powerful might

So many people do not know His love

A love so strong that He gave His son to die for all

A love that brings the best out of the worst of us

A love daily available for all to receive

So many people do not know Him and truly none of us knows Him fully

The little I know of Him, the little I have heard, the little I have seen…

Tells me I am in the safest place possible

This knowledge gives me the best assurance and peace

Will you like to know Him?

Will you like to begin a love relationship with the Lord? Please say this words out loud. Lord Jesus I will like to know you more. I will like you to be my Lord and savior. Please forgive me all my sins and make me your child today. Help me to grow daily in you. I pray in Jesus name. Amen

Getting to know God is a lifelong project and you can start by getting a Bible and reading. You can also know God by fellowshipping with other believers.

Lover

The touch of the one I love is unforgettable

It is safest being in His embrace

Great bliss and comfort I find

There’s much joy and peace

I have heard many sweet words

From would be lovers

Each trying to woo

And demand my affection

 

I have at some points being swayed by their words

I surrendered to their firm persuasions

Soon I made a discovery…

They were wolves in sheep clothing

I was left empty

I felt cheated and abandoned

I have given to love

Only to discover it to be lust

How could I have been so blind?

The signs were there to see

But I choose to ignore

True love is it even true?

…

Love has an origin

Its origin is in God

God is love

He created you to be loved

To know God is to know true love

To know God is to have pure bliss

To know God is to have real joy

Allow yourself to be loved by a love God

If you have not made a decision for Christ Jesus. Do so now. Say these words out loud

Lord Jesus I surrender my life to you. Please save me by your love, forgive me all my sins wash me and make me whole. Thank you for saving me. I pray in Jesus name. Amen.

Be my Val

The red day is here again

February 14; lovers day

Love is in the air; Love is in the heart

Love it is this day; Love tunes everywhere

Who will bring me flowers?

Who will take me out to dinner?

Who will make my day great?

Who will be my val.?

When it comes to love

What do you really know?

Is it the sweet words spoken?

Or the gift or affection shown 

This love; is it just for this day?

Will I be loved forever?

Will you love me when I am imperfect?

Will I still be your dear when my beauty fade?

The way the world loves I wonder

Love comes cheaply when you seem to be tops

True love appears in adversity

So I ask; will I be loved no matter what

I have found the one that love me to pieces

Emmanuel is the great guy I met years back

After several tug to my heart

I finally accepted to be His own

In this relationship; His love has been consistent

He forgives easily and does not keep my wrong records

He gives me His best; I lack nothing

Emmanuel; has been with me all the way

So on this lover’s day; I introduce my guy

He is Emmanuel also goes by the name Jesus

He made life beautiful and each day is our lovers’ day

I will love for you to have a guy like him

The truest love is found in Jesus; No one will love you as He

If you care for His love say this words out loud

Lord Jesus please come into my life and be my loving savior, I am sorry for my sins and I ask that you forgive me. Make me your own today and help me to know you more. Thank you for your peace. I pray in Jesus name. Amen

Jesus is the one who loves you completely

Jesus is the one who wants the best for you

Jesus is the one tugging your heart today

Jesus is the one who loves you everyday

As you accept His love, get yourself a Bible

Read and learn more about Him

Also pray and ask Him to lead you to a Bible believing church

There you will learn more and be better helped on this great journey

Happy Valentine and don’t forget to share

Fort-Ress

My fortress

My shelter from all storms

My Hiding place

My place of refuge

In the wicked world we live

We need a home away from home

A secret place of peace

A safe haven from all storms

God has become my place

In Him I hide

In His love I stride

In His peace I abide

It is the sweetest note

The most beautiful knowledge

To have my guide with me

The Lord strong and mighty walks with me

I march gallantly

I walk majestically

The sweet presence of God

Adorns my abode

So lovingly has He kept me

So much peace as He given me

I love the way the Lord cares for me

I rest securely in His love

Life is sweeter; Life is good

Come on board; the Lord ship sails by you

True rest, true joy, real victories

Come along; come enjoy

But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. O my Strength, I sing praise to you; you, O God, are my fortress, my loving God. Psalm 59:16,17
