Birth Your Destiny With Your Words! 1

Have  you ever wondered why most motivational speakers emphasize the need to repeat certain phrases like "I am Great"! or "I can  do it"! or "I can excel"! Well, it's because they understand the power of words, or better still they understand the principle behind continuous proclamation and how that when we speak a certain thing continuously, our minds get to absorb it. Then, we believe it, and eventually begin to work towards it.

It won't surprise us as Christians that these principles were taken from the Bible. But the question is how many of us actually use this spiritual principle to better our lives? As sons of the Most High (male and female alike),

One Body, One Spirit, One Hope 2!

Hi everyone! Trust you're all doing great? Remember, where there is a casting down, we say that there is a lifting up for us- Job 22:29 (paraphrased).

Okay, so let's start from where we left off shall we? Great!

One Body, One Spirit, One Hope!

Hello dear readers! It's always a pleasure sharing a reality from the word of God. My earnest prayer is that we live the true life of the word as this is God's intention for every child of His.
Okay, so I thought to share a reality today because some Christians face this challenge at one time or another in our lives, and this causes some level contention in the body of Christ. This contention, in turn, breaks the bond of peace that Apostle Paul talks about in Ephesians 4:2-3.

So, today's post was actually inspired by a bible study I had with a dear friend.
Well, we'll be talking about your place in the body of Christ and being contented with what part you belong

Feel Empty After Talking? Stop! 2

The first part of this topic talked about how we should watch our mouths, alongside things that come out of it, and how the Holy Spirit would always nudge us in our spirit when we're about to cross the line. Then that awkward moment comes when we disobey and after having a good laugh for the day, and about to reflect, you feel empty and find it quite difficult to connect with yourself and the Holy Spirit.
I can almost hear someone say 'yes, how did you know that?'  Well, it's because I've been there! I'm human! I've disobeyed, I've talked too much too! And yes! I've blamed it on my temperament! But I wonder why self control is a fruit of the Spirit if we're going to keep giving excuses and blaming our temperament, while we're indirectly saying 'I won't control my mouth!' .

Okay, enough of the blame game.

Feel Empty After Talking? Stop! Part 1

Have you ever had a long talk with someone and felt empty right after that? or had a good laugh over something someone said and felt quite 'off ' afterward? Or you feel a part of you is gone after either or both scenarios?
 Well, the good news is that you're not alone in this ( I, and tons of other Christians feel that way sometimes and we should talk about things like this more often).
The bad news is that 'something' has really left. Remember when the woman with the issue of blood touched Jesus and He said virtue (power)  has left him? Yes. It's the same. Only that the reasons are different.
Another bad news is if we feel like virtue has left us, then

The Christian and Wishful Thinking

Let's begin today's post with a scripture ( The scripture always shows us the way, right? Psalm 119: 105 says so).
Proverbs 24: 27 says

Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field: and afterward, build thine house.

When I read this scripture, it was as though I was hit with something harder than a blow. Why? I've always wanted to be like people I admired, but it's either I didn't do what they did to succeed or I lost my identity in the process of trying to be as successful as they are. I've learnt my lessons from both sides though. (Smh)
Truth is, as Christians,

People and Excuses...

Hi guys, it's been a while here and I so miss sharing my thoughts as I get inspired. This post is particularly inspired by a very recent experience with different kinds of people I met ( to think that I just started understanding the meaning of love in 1Cor 13 from verse 5).
 Anyway, I learnt three things about people and three other things about love .
Things I learnt about the people I met.
