No Back-Up Plan

Happy new month, happy independence! I know it seems like there's nothing good about this country but always look at the upside, you're alive and free and no matter how bad things are God keeps helping you. So be grateful!

 In this spirit of optimism, my last week was a mumbo jumbo of emotions, I was just somehow cos a lotta things were hitting me hard but then I started the new month with optimism and then it seemed like good news began to chase me upandan. It got to a point I had to goan disturb one of my friends that I don't usually disturb, why? well its because he's my powerbank. It's only desperate times that I call for his help. So you need friends like that, friends that can help you stand in the Lord when you feel weak. 

 Not deviating, actually my powerbank didn't do much (to be sincere ion even think he prayed for me). What I'm sure of is that I prayed for myself and even though I was weak, I realized that I had no back-up plan. No side babalawo incase the Word fails (which can never happen), I remember in my convo with my momma. I repeated that fact till it sunk into me, Iono anybody that can help me, just You Lord, so You gaz turn up, and turn up He did in a mega way, cos I saw results in hours.

 Most of the time, we get beaten down by the issues of life and stay down because we don't take the step to rise up in prayer, no one is saying its gonna be easy, but if stuff is easy for you, it just means you are the devil's suya. Always surround yourself with prayer strength, surround yourself with praying friends too, surround yourself with testimonies that are as a result of prayers. 
Mark 11:24 New International Version (NIV)
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

You know I was pondering on how we always complain of Nigeria's economy, even though I know Prayer and action is what is needed, it will be foolish to disregard the place of prayer, wait first how many of us can boldly say we dispose of trash properly when we are on roads. That's not the point sha, the point is Prayer Works!! Just mix it up with a little bit of FAITH and you'll be fine.

    Thank you ma..
    I was actually counselling somebody who was almost giving up on God totally, based on some life issues.. And I told her if everything tend to go smooth for you in life as a human, then you are weak.. Every challenge we face in life is their to strengthen us to be strong for the next challenge and be able to put our trust solely on God.
    I know if she reads this post she will seem as if I told Mama Ice somethings. More strenght MA!

    The Bible says we should put on the whole armor of God

Hey guys, good day. Hope your day was splendid? “But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people will be my people, and your God, my God.” ‭‭RUTH‬ ‭1:16‬ ‭AMP‬‬ So I know I wrote in Ruth a few days ago but my attention was drawn to Naomi. I mean there must have been some qualities in Naomi that made Ruth determined to follow her. Imagine how endearing Naomi had made her God seem to Ruth for Ruth to have wanted to serve Him. I have to commend Naomi on spreading the gospel so much that her daughter in law was willing and ready to forsake her childhood gods and her way of life just to be with an old woman. I've wondered what was it about that old woman, as in understand that both Ruth and Orpah were unwilling to leave Naomi. She had nothing to offer but I'm quite sure she had invested a lot into them. Now the question is what are we investing into people, how endear

Hypocritical Hypocrites!

  Buenos días amigos ha pasado mucho tiempo , anyways sha it's great to be back. James 1:22-23 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror. I know how a lot of us go about in Word Conferences and be shouting "Hmm Rhema!" upandan, biko don't get annoyed but all the Rhema you've been getting what have you used it for exactly? Abi you are now a keeper that all you do is catch Rhema, without retaining possession of the Rhema you've received. The truth is that if we've put into practice all the Rhema we've received then we would have become better Christians. I know someone is thinking that 'not all Rhema is for me', but wait, if the Rhema was not for you, why were you shouting Rhema in our ears depriving some of us from even hearing what the Rhema was. I remember joining a group about sharing the

Commitment 4?

Committed 4? Okay so the holidays are over and tomorrow we resume our serious lives. May the death of Christ put to death all our nasty habits and may the resurrection of Christ birth new and good ones in our lives. Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the Lord gave her conception, and she bare a son. Madam Ruth is my case study today, I just love this babe oh. To think of the tragedy that befell her, because when we speak of Ruth we only do justice to Naomi's devastation and we are quick to forget that Ruth also had a tragedy on her hands. She lost a husband to whom she bore no child for. Yet she just decided that she loved her mother in law so much and she'll happily serve her mother in law. She had no husband expectations but she resisted leaving like her sister in law and stayed with Naomi. She was like if na to chop indomie or if na to soak garri then let's go.  She was also endeared to Naomi's God an
