There’s a covering nature of the mercy of God that we enjoy as believers. The times when our end in a matter should be certain because of our actions and God stands in the gap, or times when God somehow relieves us of the consequence of an action even when it’s obvious we might deserve … Continue reading Covered by mercy

“In my opinion…”
After my first year of university, I got a scholarship in a study abroad program to do my second year in Sweden and pay just 10% of my tuition, it came with accommodation and a monthly bursary too. It was a beautiful opportunity. It also came right after my dad had suffered a stroke and … Continue reading “In my opinion…”
Best solution
The first 8 verses of Matthew 9 give us the clearest picture of Jesus’ mission, His deepest desire and His greatest expression of Love to us. One would argue that John 3:16 paints this picture the best but I would say that the verses of Matthew 9 give us a clearer picture because of the … Continue reading Best solution
Power pass Power
When we encounter a power higher than our own, there is a restriction that comes, I wouldn’t want to call it humility, because true humility must be birth from choosing to be humble, but in such a case, one has encountered something stronger and so they have no choice but to be restricted, not because … Continue reading Power pass Power
(Yah, 2021, pg 10)
I'm at a phase in my life where I have been forced to ask 'Who said?' to almost everything I read and hear, unfortunately, not a lot of people understand that it has come with my academic journey, where I have to reference and cite who said anything to either support or counter an argument. … Continue reading (Yah, 2021, pg 10)
Moments of truth – Once is enough
Of the many things I have been learning in my relationship with this imperfect-perfect human, my favourite has been trusting ‘the once’. In the past, I have been like Gideon, asking God for signs, proofs and confirmation after confirmation when He tells me to move. I’ve let fear, doubt or pure rebellion make me second … Continue reading Moments of truth – Once is enough
Scared soldier

It is the strangest thing with … Continue reading Scared soldier
Focus on the stick and water
We learn from Moses in the bible that God can deliver what we ask for from the seeming mundane and normal thing in our hand. God does not always introduce something new, sometimes He opens our eyes to see the new in what we already have. It has taught me contentment and made me more … Continue reading Focus on the stick and water
Ordinary living
Recently had a study with my friends on prophetess Anna, amazing things about someone only referenced in 3 verses in the entire Bible. My favourite thing about her has to be that she lived the ‘ordinary but expected Christian life’. What is an ordinary Christian life you might be thinking? This becomes a fair question … Continue reading Ordinary living
