A space for you and me…
In this space, I share everything that God asks me to. But think outside of the box with me–if you’re looking for think pieces head over to the Articles category. Short stories? Head to the Short Stories category. If it’s specifically about my walk with JESUS, you want to make your bed in My JESUS diary. Poems, prayers, any way you turn, you’re sure to meet the TRUTH. ✨
I WILL SEEK YOU IN THE MORNING
—03/11/24. How to Seek GOD’s Counsel, how to discern if a counsel is from GOD and what to do when GOD is silent. Before you begin to read this, a necessary fact to know. This piece is a follow-up to the article ‘PRAYER IS NOT THE MASTER KEY.’ A link to that article is HERE.…
Captivity: 4/?Â
There was a time when I lived in a sort of darkness that you could cut through with a blunt knife. You see, in the pit was despair and dismay that drained your soul and strangely, there were no guards at the mouth of this putrid hole to prevent people from leaving. Once, there was…
THE FORM OF GOD IS LIKE A MAN
—04/09/24. What is the form of GOD? What do you see when you think of GOD? When I am serious about waking up early in the morning to pray, I set two alarms. One at 3:45 a.m. and another at 4:00 a.m. (I set a third for 3:50 a.m. if I severely distrust my early…
Look away: 3/?
What do you see? Eve saw and she took her life from GOD’s hands into hers (Genesis 3:6). Saul saw and he aborted his destiny (1 Samuel 13:11). David saw and he worshipped GOD (2 Samuel 12:19). Elisha’s servant saw and his faith was restored (2 Kings 6:17). If a child grows up in a…
How to make your father unhappy
This is how to make your father unhappy. Ogonna, I am writing to you with a fluttery feeling in my chest. The kind people feel when they’re in love. I am writing to tell you that you were wrong, but then again, how right could a 16-year-old be? I remember you telling Daddy that you…
Light seeks LIGHT: 2/?
After I made the first post ‘Quiet’, a sister reached out to me asking: ‘Do you think people want better, beyond the material? Do people desire the truth, deep down within them? Do people want GOD’s love and not just material things?’ Yes, yes we all do. Her question took me down memory lane into…
PRAYER IS NOT THE ‘MASTER’ KEY.
—30/07/24. The title of this article is funny and ironic. Mostly because in my second book, All you have to be is Light, I wrote that prayer is the master key. Growth happens gradually. I have come to a realisation that does not negate the idea of prayer being the master key but broadens it.…
Quiet: 1/?Â
When I was 14, I wanted my parents to be my adopted parents and Dangote to be my real father. At 16, I just wanted to get into school because all my mates were undergraduates so I couldn’t care less if I got Law or not—I changed my course. At 20, I lived for the…
LEAVE YOUR NAME TO BEAR GOD.
—26/06/24. To start over with GOD, drop the very thing that makes you, you. Leave your name to bear GOD. There’s something I genuinely wonder about. It revolves around what it takes for a person to be fully given to GOD. I have heard endless stories about Christians who would have died for the Gospel…
THE GOSPEL OF ACQUIRED TASTE.
—23/05/24. What is your acquired taste? This is one of those mornings where I wake up with a burden in my spirit. As I pray, I retrieve what the Lord has deposited in my spirit. He says, ‘JUST OBEY’. I wonder if this is not something I already know and I probe further for the…
