Isaiah 60:3 And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. From our theme scripture above, there is a brightness; and also, a rising. The kings won't come to your self-pity; to your falling, to your down-sitting, to your laziness, to your sleeping or your procrastination! They are to … Continue reading Your Rising!
There’s an aspect of dualism that we must employ in today’s article. I know many believers do not understand the fear of the Lord, as it is expected for those who might still be new to the faith. The word ‘yirah’ is Hebrew from which the English rendition is obtained. Yirah however also means awe, … Continue reading Fearfully & Wonderfully Made
I met an acquaintance on Saturday 16th December in a public place; and the enthusiasm of meeting a new friend overtook me for the next couple days. I texted him via WhatsApp, and I couldn't just wait for him to respond. On 20th, when he hadn't, I turned to God and told Him, "Will he … Continue reading Can We Be Friends?
Psalms 147:14 He maketh peace [in] thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat. Our God is not a mediocre God. I once preached from Isaiah 60, whither God mentioned that instead of stones He'll give you iron. And instead of iron, He'll give you silver. Instead of wood, He'll give you … Continue reading Finest of Wheat!
Jesus advised we do this as our quest for ‘revenge:’ turning our other cheek as though to take the second slap when we have received the first – perhaps of the thing we didn’t deserve. This could be unexpected, and foolish: Your enemy could call you foolish in case you said ‘slap me again’, as … Continue reading Turn the Other Cheek
As the year began yesterday, I rejoiced in the word that God crowns your year with His goodness, and His paths drip with abundance, typical of Psalm 65:11. This goodness — one must note — that it is not their own but God's: HIS. Your goodness is not as His. Yours falls short. Just like … Continue reading When God Meets You
When I was younger, I wrote five books of which one was published 3 years ago. Now in all these years, no one read any of them, even if the excitement to narrate the stories within would drag me whenever someone asked me about them. Since I was writing them by hand, they would not … Continue reading Audience of One
The serpent was cursed to eat dust! And we forget that man was molded out of the same. It was re-emphasized, that the serpent would strike the woman's heel, and she would crush its head. Ergo, we expect the venom of the damned beast and belly-crawling reptile, to strike internally and entirely the man or … Continue reading Men Made of Dust
You can get so lost in God that you forget you have to get married You can get so lost in God that you forget you have to have children You can get so lost in God that you forget you have an earthly identity You can get so lost in God that you forget … Continue reading Lose Yourself | Deep Slumber
Isaiah 33:16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions (fortress) of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure. There was a time, when God was speaking to me about my dreams. Figuratively, they are expressed as pregnancies in many scenarios and parables. In that season, … Continue reading Your Waters shall be Sure!
The Bible doesn't restrict us from withholding cash. It warns rather about withholding more than is meet. This means withholding more than is right or what is DUE. Recently, I was earning a lot on a daily, and being a Proverbs 11:24-25 disciple, I thought my generosity was on track until the Holy Spirit nudged … Continue reading Generosity ft. Discernment
I'm writing this based in a town called Naalya, a part of the Kampala Greater Metropolitan Area in Uganda. For the past month or so, it's been raining heavily, and recently, it's been shocking many, by falling as many times as thrice a day: from about 3am to 7am, then at around midday, then at … Continue reading Windows of Heaven
Babylon. Let's start with Babylon. The Israelites went into exile and Daniel had to learn the tongue of the Chaldeans. Knowing a people's language alone, without necessarily having as much wisdom in that dialect gives you confidence to speak or fit in that ethnicity. Later, Daniel did great exploits within the courts of the kings … Continue reading The Mystery of Experiences
We once played a game where one had to whisper in the ear of another the word he or she heard from the person before him or her. Most cases heard the person at the end of the queue speaking a word totally different from the one that the first person spoke. The first person … Continue reading man-of-godism 3: The Voice of God
I was rushing through 'town' today while shopping. 'Town' is slang for city or downtown, where a lot is always happening in Kampala. This ranges from street preaching to strangers approaching you to ask if what they offer you need. Part of that 'a lot' includes thieving as well, and since I've been a victim … Continue reading Rebuking the Devourer
