GIRL YOU’RE THE ANSWER TO SOMEONE PRAYER

It was a quiet morning when Ada got the message: “Thank you for checking on me last night. You saved me from doing something stupid.” She froze. All she did was send a message “Hey, how are you holding up?” But those few words became a lifeline. Sometimes we underestimate the power of our presence. We think we’re too ordinary, too small, too unseen, yet somewhere, someone is whispering a prayer that your obedience will answer. You may not have everything figured out. You might still be trying to make sense of your own journey. But even in your uncertainty, God is still using you. Every smile you share, every word you write, every act of kindness, it carries the potential to heal someone’s unseen wound. You are God’s response wrapped in humanity. Your compassion is someone’s comfort. Your story is someone’s survival guide. So, when you feel unseen, remember this: You are seen by God and sent for someone. Keep showing up in love. Keep being kind even when it’s unnoticed. Because sometime...

YOU CAN’T PRAY AND STAY UNPREPARED

She prayed passionately that night, tears soaking her pillow. “Lord, bless me. Open doors. Change my story.” And heaven heard her. But heaven also whispered something she almost missed: “You can’t pray and stay unprepared.” At first, she didn’t understand. But as days turned into weeks, it became clearer, Faith is not folding your arms; it’s rolling up your sleeves. Many times, we pray for rain but don’t dig ditches. We ask for opportunities but don’t learn the skills to manage them. We want to be seen, but haven’t built what’s worth showing. Prayer without preparation is like planting without watering, you’ll have seeds but no growth. Yes, God answers prayers, but He also honors readiness. When Joseph was in the prison, he didn’t just sit and sulk; he interpreted dreams, building a gift that would later speak before kings. David didn’t become a warrior overnight; his training started in the fields, facing lions before facing Goliath. So, girl, don’t just pray for the platform, prepare...

GIRL, BUILD CAPACITY

It started with a phone call. “Temi, can you handle this project?” Her heart leaped, this was the kind of opportunity she had prayed for. But as she stared at the requirements, her excitement slowly turned into fear. She realized she wasn’t ready. She wanted the stage, but she hadn’t learned the script. She wanted the blessing, but hadn’t built the capacity to carry it. That day, she learned a hard truth: God doesn’t just bless your prayers, He blesses your preparation. Many times, we pray for more without preparing for more. We ask God to enlarge our territory, but we don’t stretch our minds. We pray for open doors, but our skills, discipline, and mindset aren’t ready to walk through them. Building capacity means growing before the breakthrough comes. It’s studying when no one’s watching. It’s practicing when no one’s clapping. It’s learning, refining, and stretching yourself quietly because when the opportunity finally arrives, there’ll be no time to start learning. Girl, don’t wait ...

GIRL, EDUCATE YOURSELF

The day it hit her, she was scrolling through her phone again, watching people announce new jobs, online certifications, and fresh wins. She paused for a moment and whispered, “God, what am I even doing with my life?” Not out of jealousy, but realization. The world was moving, and somehow, she was standing still caught between comfort and fear. She had dreams, big ones. But dreams don’t grow if you don’t feed them. And then came that gentle nudge in her spirit: “Educate yourself. Add more to your knowledge.” It wasn’t just about school or certificates. It was about stretching her mind, growing her confidence, and refusing to let stagnancy become home. Because truth is, you can’t keep being on the same spot while others are progressing. Learning doesn’t end after graduation. Every new skill, every book, every course, every conversation adds a layer of wisdom that shapes who you’re becoming. Girl, the world is evolving. You can’t keep saying, “I don’t know how to,” when there are free re...

THE STRENGTH IN STILLNESS

There was a time I thought being still meant being weak. I believed movement was proof of progress, and if I wasn’t constantly doing something, I was somehow failing. Until life slowed me down, painfully. I remember those quiet evenings when everything in me wanted to fix things. The unanswered prayers, the financial weight, the unspoken fears. But no matter how hard I tried, nothing shifted. And that’s when I heard it. Not audibly, but deep within my spirit: “Be still.” Still? When everything is falling apart? Still? When there are bills waiting and dreams hanging? It didn’t make sense right? But over time, I realized, stillness isn’t weakness; it’s strength. It takes courage to be calm when everything screams, “Do something!” It takes faith to rest your heart when the answers haven’t come. It takes trust to wait when you could worry instead. Stillness doesn’t mean idleness; it means surrender. It’s where God does His deepest work, in quiet hearts, not frantic ones. When you stop stri...

WHILE YOU WAIT

The waiting season can feel like a slow ache, you’ve prayed, believed, done all you know, yet it feels like heaven is still writing your story in pencil. There was a time I thought waiting meant doing nothing. But I’ve learned, waiting isn’t passive; it’s preparation. It’s what you do while you wait that shapes what comes next. While you wait, worship- even when it feels hollow. Because worship reminds your soul that God is still worthy, even when life feels weary. While you wait, work- not out of panic, but with purpose. Learn, grow, build. Don’t bury your talents because you’re waiting for the big stage; the lessons you learn now will sustain you when the light finally shines. While you wait, watch- for the quiet ways God is moving. He might not change the circumstance yet, but He’s changing you, teaching you patience, faith, humility, trust. And while you wait, rest- not in defeat, but in assurance that God’s hands never stop working. Even silence is strategy. Even delay has directi...

THE WAITING ROOM

The waiting season feels like standing in a long queue you never planned for. You’re watching others being called ahead of you, someone gets the job, someone gets the promotion, someone shares the testimony you’ve been praying for. And there you are, still waiting, still holding your number, still whispering, “Lord, am I a stone? How long will it take?” Waiting isn’t easy. Sometimes it feels endless, like your prayers are stuck in traffic. It tests your patience, your peace, and your belief in God’s timing. It exposes the parts of you that crave control and teaches you to surrender what you can’t change. The waiting room is quiet, but it’s not empty. That’s where God works behind the scenes, aligning hearts, shifting circumstances, and preparing you for what’s ahead. Sometimes the delay is divine protection. Sometimes it’s redirection. And sometimes, it’s simply growth. If God gave you what you prayed for too early, you might lose it trying to manage it. So He waits, until your faith i...
