Not every scripture written is truth! It being in the Bible doesn’t qualify it to be applied in your situation. Job’s quoting ‘God gives and takes away’ shouldn’t be your same quote for now we know it is the thief that steals and kills. You must know when to apply what and where!

Positioning III
Ecclesiastes 10:7 I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth. From our theme scripture, we can see two types of people. We also see two types of transportation; or expectations of how each group of people should move. But we see the modes swapped, just like Jacob did over … Continue reading Positioning III
Positioning
Mordecai's position led to his hearing of the traitors' plots, which led to his honoring. If you are meant to be at the gate, but are inconsistent, you might not be present when the traitors come to plot.

Jacob vs. Israel
Just like God sends His word to heal us, He sends His word to light up our destinies and callings. He sent a word to Jacob, but He was churning out Israel (A NATION). Without an encounter with the sent word, the Israel in you will not surface! If you don’t heed to it, the nation will not manifest!
Scripture & Ideology
If the word of God has never questioned your decisions, or rarely does so, you must question your devotion to Him! If scripture is challenging your thought process, then it is true the mind of Christ is forming (or formed) in your intellect.

Psalms 16:11a You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; Are you worried about who you will get married to? He will show you the path of life! He’ll let you know who!

Increase & Comfort
Thou shalt increase my greatness, And comfort me on every side. Psalm 71:21 KJV After my graduation last Thursday, the question came: now what? Within me, anxiety attempted to arise. Psalm 71:21 had been resurfacing time to time every week; and so it did again. This time God took me below its surface. He said, … Continue reading Increase & Comfort

The Daniel 6 Censures
The devil no longer has anything of the world against you. But perhaps he can find fault with you in Zion. He will manipulate the word of God against you! Or make you manipulate it to suit your sin.
At the Gates of Hell: a Testimony
It was Census day, on the night of May 10th, when my mother's younger sister almost gave up the ghost.Earlier that week, one of my prayer partner had suggested we had an overnight that Friday. I had not felt a go-ahead from God though. But I didn't want to be so rude. Somehow, God confirmed … Continue reading At the Gates of Hell: a Testimony
Hegai
In the book of Esther, we see many virgins brought in and groomed exorbitantly and delicately with the end that one would become Queen to the most powerful king then: Artaxerxes, following Vashti's being striped of the very same office. The virgins were presented to household managers called chamberlains — specifically Hegai, I guess for … Continue reading Hegai
Men in Women’s Shoes
I wanted to entitle this 'Men, Feminism & Faith'. I rarely struggle with what to baptize these articles as name, but I do hope God was close to nailing the point He wanted to lead home with this selected title as you'll see. I loathed being 'a man'! Why I loathed being a man was … Continue reading Men in Women’s Shoes
