And the Lord said to Joshua, “This day I will begin to exalt (magnify) you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be WITH you.” Joshua 3:7 When I landed on this scripture last week, emphasis was drawn to the word ‘with.’ Being … Continue reading Immanuel — God With You
Of Parenting: Did you not know…?

Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?” Luke 2:48-49 … Continue reading Of Parenting: Did you not know…?
Generational Hate
It just occurred to me yesterday morning, that one is capable of being a victim of generational hate! Let me explain: The Bible says the Israelites and their generations for 400 years, were favored because of one man — Joseph. Even God confesses that He pitied Israel many times because of one man; David. I … Continue reading Generational Hate
Give the Oil Time
I oiled the hinges of the door to my room. They used to make a queer sound whenever the door swung. After a few minutes, I was mad that the door still made that noise. It was irritating especially in the middle of the night when I sneaked out to pray. I moved on with … Continue reading Give the Oil Time
Love is not Selfish
We must carefully examine our intentions or impressions on others. Sometimes we preach, but the end is for no other reason but to control others, or ensure something is in our proximity. Let me give examples; I know a widow who desired to rebuild her house. The garage was turned into an extra bedroom, but … Continue reading Love is not Selfish
Why Diligence!
Proverbs 22:29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. On Saturday, as I rode to meet a client and write on his son’s wedding invitation cards, this word of the Lord came to me! As usual, the emphasis was to ‘kings and … Continue reading Why Diligence!
Celeterrestrial
We have been told that there are two realms of the physical, and spiritual; natural and supernatural. The things pertaining earth are called terrestrial, and those heavenly are called celestial. But I am here to conclude that the realm is one! One with both spiritual and physical existing! When I think of the fact that … Continue reading Celeterrestrial
The God that Warns 2
In part one, I gave examples of God warning Joseph to flee from Egypt, for baby Jesus was in danger. We see God warn the wise men not to return by the same way. And so much more. Though God warned outwardly, I really love the fact that He warns us of ourselves as well. … Continue reading The God that Warns 2
The Mystery of ‘Head and not Tail’ 2
Therefore the Lord will cut off head and tail from Israel, Palm branch and bulrush in one day. The elder and honorable, he is the head; The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail. Isaiah 9:14-15 The Bible declared in Deuteronomy 28 that if we obey God’s commandments, one of the blessings that would … Continue reading The Mystery of ‘Head and not Tail’ 2
The Language Before Babel
The language before Babel was understanding! Today, even if languages are many, one is able to watch a whole Korean series yet African! This is because of the technology of subtitles which can make the viewer understand the foreign displays. We also see English voice overs over Al Jazeera videos from the middle east; quickening … Continue reading The Language Before Babel
Place & Language 2
For Part 1, click here Another observation occurred to me concerning places and languages. I have a setting: In Uganda, we have many tribes, hence many languages. The central region is called Buganda and is predominantly populated by Baganda who speak Luganda. However, since the capital is here, we have many tribes coexisting within. My … Continue reading Place & Language 2
Callings Disfigured
I like photography. O how I love capturing suns and sunsets and clouds and birds and rains and smiles! One time, at an annual family reunion I cajoled everyone for a group photo. It was quite late, and one sister brushed me off for loving photos; and that I should let people go. As a … Continue reading Callings Disfigured

Cup Of Suffering
Today’s article may not be the usual sound. It bears with it ‘eloi eloi lama sabachthanis’ and ‘O Lord hear my cries.’ At the end of the 27th day of October, I wasn’t only tired physically. I was very, very, veeery burnt out mentally. My mind was having voices from every corner presenting their own … Continue reading Cup Of Suffering
Fear After Favor
The end of miracles should be that a certain fear of God comes upon people. That must be the end. That people praise God! Or that they view Him as marvelous and terrible! Imagine you were an Egyptian when the plagues came upon them! I am certain by the first or second or third plague, … Continue reading Fear After Favor
