When trials and temptation seem to weigh you down  When the pressures of life seems so much that you feel choked and you can't get answers when you pray, Just have faith and trust God is in action to changes things. When you're discouraged and feel sad, Everything seems to turn out bad, Sometimes, you even feel cursed Keep believing and trust God  When the night seems so very long, When the day seems so short, And it seems it will not turn to night  Praise God in your heart with a song. Give thanks and still trust God When you can't get any peace of mind, When you wish God can just change your present position, Even when you never cease to pray, And answers you can't seem to find, Look up and trust God anyways. Remember God's timing is not ours, And the answers will come one day. Nothing is too hard for God's powers, So cheer up and trust God anyway! You don't have power to change things, Why don't you leave it to the person that has power to change thi...

"I feel so empty and everything seems so dull. I can barely breathe on my own. The light is gone and dark is back which covers me in endless black, My heart broken on the floor. I cry sometimes and just wish I can feel His presence again.  I need you Him; can't you see? It's obvious, He completes me. I lay on my bed crying all night, praying for things to be all right. For everything, I'm to blame. Remember me forevermore, Please don't erase me from your agenda. My heart will never be the same. Don't remove me from your plans. I knew I loved you from the start but I accepted you" Louis wept "Who is that? And what's his name? Because I feel the love is surreal" Yemi the counsellor asked "My everything, His name is God. These days, I feel I have been so far from him. I have lost my way as Sin as dominated me. I miss His presence and His inspiration. I pray every day for the Spirit of restoration. I want Him back" Louis said in tears a...

It's alright to cry.... You get negative vibes from people around you, You feel the weight of anxiety is much over you,  You feel the wall are closing in on you and the roof is caving in. Just be calm and know it's okay to cry. You have been bottling up those emotions, You have been strong enough and nobody seems to notice you need consolation, You have been neglected by those your called friends and it all seems you are all alone and know one cares. It's alright to cry.... When that situation looks tight and it seems you have lost your voice, It's alright to cry.... When you don't get results, even after putting in so much strength into it, It's alright to cry... When your back is against the wall and it looks like it's all over, It's alright to cry... Dear sisters, Crying is not only a sign of weakness. It also helps you release emotions you have been covering up. There are times you don't have the right words to say and all you can do is to releas...

"He is so selfish. He doesn't even think of me. Am I not His daughter? I mean, why must my life be like this? My life can't just keep going on this way? Something has to change" Words of Sade as she talked like a frustrated christian Dear Sisters, I know you have been holding up and still holding up well.  I know it's not easy and sometimes, you feel there is no Favor or Miracle anywhere because you haven't experienced yours. Hmmm...I remember how I used to claim the testimonies of others in church and it got to a time, I was tired because the previous ones I have claimed, I haven't seen the manifestation and sometimes I wondered if they are really real or maybe, they are not the testimony God prepared for me.... Hmmm, at a long run I stop being bothered and I learn to be happy for those who shared their testimonies because I believe mine is on the way. What am I trying to say? I know someone somewhere has given the testimony you wished you shared but why ...

What do you know about Pain? What experience do you have concerning shame, struggles, etc. It's so painful that most people, are passing through pains, difficulties, etc and they have refused to let it out but, who can we blame, when we are not God that sees the heart of people.  Except God touches the heart of the person to speak to you or unless He reveals it to you, who can know or see it all? God What exactly are you clothed with?  Dear sisters, Don't hide your pain beneath the cloth. Some of our sisters, are clothed in pains but the spiritual mind, won't allow them speak out. What are you clothed with? Struggles. Some are struggling in every aspect of their lives that they don't know who they are anymore because they are clothed in pain, struggle, disappointments, heartbreaks, etc. I know you are a star in holding unto pains but for how long do you want to keep doing this and hoping that someone should notice you? It's time, to fight for your freedom, don't...

He sees it all, those silent tears and unending circumstances happening to you He sees it all, those struggles and pain you have been holding unto for a long time.  He sees those moments when things seem difficult, miserable and even life is turning away from you He knows how it feels, remembering those moment you had lost with your beloved ones. Thinking of how beautiful and caring they were and leaving without saying goodbye He knows about those lonely moments and how you wished you could find someone close to you. To understand you and to talk heart to heart matters with, without being misunderstood. He sees how you wonder life can really be unfair to honest and good people like you but all you have to do, is go off to focus on how to mend your life He sees how you try to be strong even in the midst of the circumstances and how you wish for a miraculous help. Dear Sister, I want you to know that every circumstances is not there to stay forever. I know how you feel and hope for a...

A lot of things are going on in the world and trust me, it is taking the self esteem of some people gradually. To some people they know and to some people, they don't know.  Some are living in depression knowingly and unknowingly (because, they don't know). Nothing in this world seems happy or pleasant to them because there is no joy. Trust me, the storm and pressure of life will come but who you are and what you stand for, is what will hold you in the face of it all. To some people, Christianity isn't real. To some people, faith is scam. Some are not who they are anymore because of what they are passing through. If you can't hold unto your faith in the midst of the storm, what do you want to hold unto? The Word or the World? I know some people are thinking..."Ah, it's not what you think. The storm has different levels. Maybe, she hasn't faced anyone because if she has, she won't be talking like this".  Dear Sisters, Don't be deceived everyone ...

Most times, I have got to realize many people claim to be busy when in the actual fact, they are not busy. Some are entangled with something's that makes it look as if they are busy but to be sincere, it's really dragging them. To some of them, they don't know, while to some, they know. Some of the busyness can be spending time in irrelevant discussion, unfruitful place, watching series of movies all day, etc. We are in a season, where everyone is BUSY but the truth is, WHAT ARE YOU BUSY WITH?  Is it productive, Is it building you up, Is it bringing connection, etc. We really need to check and ask ourselves, where have I been spending my time most and is it impacting me?  The harvest is ripe but the labourer are few. In what we are doing and how we use our time, shouldn't draw us from our Purpose in Christ. Dear sister, If you need to define your busyness, please do that today. So as to retrace your step back to those days when you were committed and engrossed with your...

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed and qualified me to preach the Gospel of good tidings to the meek, the poor, and afflicted; He has sent me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the [physical and spiritual] captives and the opening of the prison and of the eyes to those who are in bound, To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord [the year of His favor] and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, to grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified I shall be known of the Lord; people will speak of me as the minist...
