Growing up in Nigeria and hearing people speak Hausa often around me, it was inevitable that the language will crawl up on me at some point, and it did, because a good portion of learning is subconscious. Hence why they often tell parents to be careful what their children are exposed to, because the environment … Continue reading Free extras
Unyielding and Hardened
God sent prophet Ezekiel to the people of Israel in Ezekiel 3 and God said to him that “I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are.”Ezekiel 3:8 God said this to him after acknowledging the fact that the people of Israel were “hardened and obstinate”. I wondered why Gods solution to a … Continue reading Unyielding and Hardened
Not-so-pretty revelations
Thank God for tests in life that reveal our vulnerability, thank God that they face us with practicalities and not just what we think we know. I think with Gods word too, it’s so easy to be convinced of being fully persuaded by the word of God, up until a test comes and you’re faced … Continue reading Not-so-pretty revelations
Jumping with our short rope
I’ve been meditating on the little boy in the bible whose lunch fed 5000 men with leftovers. We talk about the miracle of the multiplication too often without the source of the little that brought the plenty. He probably had no idea what his lunch was going to do that day, I imagined he even … Continue reading Jumping with our short rope
Shameless to this world
I’ve been reading about a woman named Kara Tippets in the last few days. She’s not that famous so don’t worry if you’ve never heard about her. She was a Christian woman who braved a season of cancer while raising four children and serving her God. I think what made her stand out the way … Continue reading Shameless to this world

There are some doctrinal imbalances within that I don’t quite agree with but for the majority, I thought it was warm. Shout out to all … Continue reading Step forward now
Commanders over one
It’s so beautiful how God gives us His heart when we surrender our lives to Him. We cease to exist and live for ourselves and begin to live for Him, we’ll find that our hearts desires become the same things that Gods heart desires. Almost like God replicates Himself in any man who will allow … Continue reading Commanders over one
Much more candy
I read a story a few years ago now of a boy who went to the grocery store with his dad to get a few things. After shopping and paying for the groceries at the checkout counter, the owner of the store who had a large jar of candy right next to the checkout computer … Continue reading Much more candy
Last leggers
I don’t think there’s anything that hurts my heart more than near-misses. Being so close and yet missing it, getting to the end and failing right at the finish line before you can cross over. I’ve been on the books of Chronicles the last two weeks, I don’t know why God takes me back there … Continue reading Last leggers
For His Namesake
“God please, good news today, it has been such a horrible month already” Ife muttered under her breath removing her apron and hanging it on the edge of the back door to go open the front door for her husband who had just returned from a meeting that had the power to change their lives. … Continue reading For His Namesake
