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

Pleasures & Time
Point of View: It is 5am, Sunday morning, and all my sleep is gone! I have had such a long debt with God where I’ve felt Him call me to the inner chamber, alone, but I have always been distracted, or put Him off. During the Men Gather Conference, a statement was said in retaliation … Continue reading Pleasures & Time
Beyond Stewardship | More shall be added…
Weeks ago, another business idea dropped in my mind. I was frustrated that they keep coming and I can’t seem to give each one of them the full attention they deserve, to enable them reach their full potential.

Greatness Under Attack
From yesterday's post we were cautioned to see the greatness in us even when all that is surrounding us shows no sign of greatness. Well, that was one side of the coin. Today, something else came to mind. What if someone else sees your greatness? What if they see it as a threat? What if … Continue reading Greatness Under Attack
Not all gifts come wrapped the way you want!
As I prayed yesterday, and as I meditated about this festive day, the thought of greatness being wrapped in something non appealing came to mind.

I believe the Lord of Lords … Continue reading Not all gifts come wrapped the way you want!

No Formula
The Bible says God's word is exceedingly broad. (Psalm 119:96) If His word is, then He is, for His word is Him. There are many ways Jesus healed people by in the Bible. For some He sent a word.

On Psalms 23 …
By Patience Adyeeri Agaba I have to admit that I always wondered what this part of Psalm 23 meant. I thought “He anoints my head with oil” was figurative language for God keeping the Psalmist healthy. I never knew this parallel. It totally never crossed my mind.. In the psalm, a shepherd anoints the head … Continue reading On Psalms 23 …

Now, from the word 'tardemah' from which 'deep sleep' was translated also means a trance. A trance means; a state of semi-consciousness in which a … Continue reading Why God Needs You Asleep
They walk among you…
You sleep at 9pm, and wake up at 6am. A whole 9 hours you sleep, and the next one you get thine self ready for work. You merely walk as an immortal—which you are—but ask yourself 'Isn't there any higher?' Meanwhile, in this same world where you sleep all those hours only to say a … Continue reading They walk among you…
Stars for Gifts
It was a special day, when I received a gift from Christ. We all receive the same today, and I don't mean metaphorically. In a nutshell, Jesus had a star. A star that shone bright that led the wise men from the East, to come adore him with gold, frankincense and myrrh. Galatians 2:20 says, … Continue reading Stars for Gifts
