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

Judgement in the Clouds
It threatened to rain today! O the clouds were dark and heavy. However those that had to go to work in our household never took it seriously! It got darker and darker! Still, no drop fell. My aunt took her time. The weather dragged on for more minutes. Suddenly, drops began to fall. My aunt … Continue reading Judgement in the Clouds
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
Exceedingly Abundantly 3
I am still amazed at my most recent testimony! In April I had just testified and written about how faith obtained me an iPhone 13 Pro. Close to six months down the road, the latest version located me. If you haven’t read how it did, you can peruse through the previous blogs. In all this, … Continue reading Exceedingly Abundantly 3
Who Satisfies Your Mouth …
The psalmist said to his soul in the 103rd chapter, to bless the Lord — with all that was within it! And not to forget the Lord’s benefits! O yes! The Lord is a friend with benefits too! Part of these are; the forgiveness of our sins — not the condemnation thereof; the healing of … Continue reading Who Satisfies Your Mouth …
Full Promises
We should stop making promises we can’t fulfill! This ends up forming our belief system of promises and promise-makers. I’ve come to realize that the more a man, a friend, a spouse, a parent, makes a promise that they never fulfill, the more the promisee loses faith in the context of the word. If someone … Continue reading Full Promises
El Roi
I was rushing past the church entrance for service, and the choir was singing the last worship song. I nearly face-bashed into a jacked dark and tall guy. His biceps pressed against his veins causing them to pop — ah, admiration … or, or covetousness? Let’s blame it on my coming-of-an-adult phase, and maybe an … Continue reading El Roi
Unburying the Talent
In the Parable of the talents in Matthew 25, three men are entrusted with talents. This didn’t literal talents. That was a currency back then, but it can as well substitute for what it actually is. Let’s read the parable first; For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, … Continue reading Unburying the Talent
The God That Warns
Knowing that God is all-knowing, places you in a demanding position. Last year when my brother passed, I, of course out of frustration, asked God why He didn’t warn me — why He didn’t warn us! Lo and behold, I got to know that my aunt had a dream the Monday he was being taken … Continue reading The God That Warns
Let …
“We are Matthew five fourteens. But we can only be if we kept the instruction of verse 16; which says ‘let’ — not fight! ‘Let’ — not reignite what has already been kindled — the light is already there, you just have to bring forth.” I came across a video of my little sister in … Continue reading Let …
Consecrations of Honoraria
For those who do not know the word ‘honorarium’, it is a compensation or appreciation for services that do not have a predetermined value. Since our setting is christian, honoraria is given to mostly preachers after they have ministered; or gospel musicians on doing the same. This is usually in form of money. But gifts … Continue reading Consecrations of Honoraria
How To Profit
Isaiah 48:17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. (KJV) God confesses to be the one who teaches us to profit! His Holy Spirit in John 14 is described to … Continue reading How To Profit
Catch the Little Foxes
Song of Solomon 2:15 Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes. An article I read says the little foxes represent the seemingly small but significant issues that can damage that love's beauty and fruitfulness. And there were no better words to express what I felt … Continue reading Catch the Little Foxes
Redefining ‘Great Works’
John 14:12 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. When I was younger, I used to think great works were only raising the dead, healing the sick, making … Continue reading Redefining ‘Great Works’
Do not Awaken Love | Virgin Realms
The phrase 'do not stir up nor awaken love until it pleases' appears thrice in the legendary classic Song of Solomon. Biblical scholars understand the meaning of 'thrice.' Recently, my mind had wandered off to realms I never meant to go: how does having sex actually look? for example. I am super grateful that though … Continue reading Do not Awaken Love | Virgin Realms
