The bible describes a king of Judah; king Amaziah as one who “did what was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a loyal heart.” II Chronicles 25:2 I found that description very interesting. He did right but not with a right heart. Meaning his actions were in contrast to his heart … Continue reading Only recognised sentiment
My advise to God
The bible tells us that the fourth king of Israel; Rehoboam and the next after him; Jeroboam were at war all their days. “…And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.” 2 Chronicles 12:15 I read that and I remembered that God had sent prophet Ahijah to anoint Jeroboam while Rehoboam was … Continue reading My advise to God
Suggestive spirits
In 1 chronicles 19, after the death of Nahash, the king of Ammon, we read of David’s resolution to show kindness to his son, Hanun, on account of his father. David says “I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. So David sent messengers to comfort … Continue reading Suggestive spirits
Carrying on His legacy
The entire church across the globe gets to celebrate the essence, reason and catalyst of the faith we have today, after the bane of mankind was completely removed and our life’s course recharted. Today reminds me of the greatest love story ever told, because of the magnanimous sacrifice made by one man for the saving … Continue reading Carrying on His legacy
Partially armed
I believe so much in intercession and standing in the gap for the situations of people, asides the beauty of petitioning heaven on behalf of each other there’s also the benefit of the bond it builds amongst us as we pray for each other. But much more than this, I believe in praying for these … Continue reading Partially armed
E for Effort
I’ve been on a book by A.W. Tozer for a week now, it’s actually a compendium of some of his teachings while he was alive. There’s no way we wouldn’t have thought him archaic, rigid or like most people like to say today, ‘radical’, because his teachings are concentrated and honestly don’t have some of … Continue reading E for Effort
Better off absent?
I woke up this morning thinking “this could’ve gone any other way”. I had woken up with a knowing from the Holy Spirit to take something to God in prayer. Something quite mundane I’d say. When He brought it to my mind, I remember thinking “how wicked of me to think I could do this … Continue reading Better off absent?
No excuse
A little over a month ago, on my way to work, I searched for my earpiece and couldn’t find it. I was agitated because I was late and I needed it because it is part of my morning routine to listen to messages on my commute to work. Running out of time and searching frantically … Continue reading No excuse
Forerunners
I was reading about how Rachael asked Jacob to sleep with her servant in a bid to “raise a family through her”, since she herself couldn’t conceive. Reading that gave me a flash back to Sarah’s time too, when Sarah asked Abraham to sleep with her own servant so she could raise a family through … Continue reading Forerunners
Keep moving
For me, this year has been a ‘soldiering on’ year, many people might read that and think “hmm, isn’t that every year?”, but Nahh, for me, this year was that year that amidst all obstacles I just woke up every morning and I said “oh well, we have to keep moving”. So amidst the waiting, … Continue reading Keep moving
