Are You Expectant?


Dear Beautiful One, 


Happy New Month! Welcome to an Oustanding October. 

I hope you are keeping safe and putting in prayers the upcoming WOTGK Convention. Without  shadow of a doubt, I know it will be amazing. 

Pregnancy is such an incredible experience, and I am reminded of it as I write this post. You see, with my first pregnancy, I was clueless and to be honest, even at 37 weeks I kept telling people I still had time before delivery. This is because of the many things I had read, most of which postulate that first pregnancies often go beyond their Expected Date of Delivery (EDD). So, I delayed starting my maternity leave for as long as I could plus I was still very agile, so why stay idle waiting for the baby's arrival. Unknown to me, God had ordained my baby to arrive on March 4, 2017 and here I was on Friday, March 3, at work after which on my way home, I stopped by to do some grocery shopping. Sisters, I felt no sign whatsoever till the next morning when I spotted and had to visit the hospital. 

For my second son, it was at 38 weeks, and quite similar with his brother. I was at work the previous day, and the next morning I had running nose. So I thought to take the day off. This time was slightly different though, I was expectant. I looked for signs and needed not be told as I connected the dots and made my way to the hospital. 

The difference between the two experiences is that I was more expectant in one than the other, and that was a game-changer.

As we step into the last three months of the year, I want you to be expectant. As Bishop Oyedepo often say, expectation is the mother of manifestation. I am writing to tell you to keep your expectations up! For He shall crown the year with fatness for us and if He changed Obed-Edom's story in 3 months, why not ours? Three months is too much! 

Let us put pressure on the Word and demand what we want from it - we would be amazed at what He would do. Our expectation tells on our attitude. Do you know how you would peep the window to see if a guest you are expecting has arrived? Please put up that faith attitude on, for indeed it shall speak. However, the first guarantee to experience a supernatural turnaround is to be in Christ.

If you like to give or re-dedicate your life to Jesus, please say this prayer with me:

"Lord Jesus, I confess that I have sinned, forgive me and wash me clean with your blood. Today, I accept you into my life; I believe you died for me, and on the third day you rose again. Thank you for saving me. I am born again. Amen".


Loads of Love, 


Your Sis

The Creative Power

 Dearly Beloved, Happy New Year! I pray that 2023 will be exciting and fulfilling for you; may your expectations not be cut short in Jesus Name, Amen. A few days ago, I came across on my Instagram page a snippet of some of the things I said in 2019. In this video, I was talking about my personalised confessions after a vision boarding session. So I said things like, “I am transforming Africa”, “I enjoy healthy relationships”, and I went on and on.  Sisters, I was so moved by how everything I spoke in that video has become a reality today. There is so much power in our words; honestly, we can’t really understand how powerful it is on this side of the earth.  Can we do something? Do a video saying where you see yourself (in alignment with the Word of God) by December 31, 2023 and save it. Say things like, I have become a global brand because Nations and kings are coming to the knowledge of my rising. I see myself setting a new pace with groundbreaking ideas in my industry because I am th

DEALING WITH NEGATIVE THOUGHTS

Dear Sisters, I trust God that you and yours are doing well.  Before now, I would b ea t myself up each time a negative thought crosses my mind. This led me to do a lot of meditation on the power of thoughts and how to take charge of them. Of the many things I have now come to understand is that: negative thoughts in themselves are not bad. I know that sounds weird but stay with me, let me explain myself. Allowing these thoughts to remain and control us is where the issue lies.  It reminds me of the analogy of temptation versus sin. It is okay to be tempted, but it is not okay to sin.  When I was meditating on this, I read a devotional that week that reiterated that dwelling on bad thoughts is what causes  believers to fall. For the purpose of context, not all negative thoughts are 'fornication' or 'adultery' related; sometimes, it is not doing the will of the Father. Peter is a good example here when he said Christ would not wash his feet (John 13:8) and when he reprim

You Are Being Built

  Hello Beautiful, I hope you know how much God loves and is mind-full of you. I have wanted to write to you for so long now, but I kept telling myself, “i will get to it”, and alas, we are now in April. Can you believe we are in April already?! I trust God that this write up meets you in good spirits. God is so merciful. Earlier in the year, January to be precise, the Holy Spirit instructed me to reread the story of Joseph and this time, I had the nudge to list point by point the career lessons from him. The way I was inspired to pen these lessons was as though I was preparing to use them for a speaking engagement. I stalled a little because the story is one I have read severally and wondered why writing it in the way I had been inspired to matter, especially as it is one of the major cruces of my book - The Millennial Employee. Eventually, I obeyed and studied the story as I was inspired. January and February passed. I had no reference to it and even forgot I did the exercise.  Fast
