THERE IS MORE!

Hello Beautiful,

Happy new year! It’s been a while I wrote to you, I trust that you are doing well. 

How were the festive celebrations? Pleasant, I hope, except for the part of dealing with the extra pounds gained from the plenty food. 😊

It’s a few days into the new year, and I could not think of a better time to reconnect with you, my sisters. As the year 2021 ended, I was in a place where I did not want the year to ‘finish’. Why you may ask, well, it is because God blew my mind in 2021 – the year was heaven on earth for me – God’s favour was evident in all I did, and it felt so ‘sweet’. Everything that has a beginning must have an ending, so the year was bound to end regardless of my multiple testimonies. And that it had to end sort of began to make me feel unexpectant for 2022. Weird right? I wondered why too, mainly because the testimonies I experienced in 2020 I did not see coming or technically ask for them – it was just God honouring me. 

So towards the end of 2021, I deliberately ensured I stayed grateful until I could shake that feeling off. Finally, to the glory of God, I was able to shake that feeling off and become expectant for the new year 2022. 

One of the things the holy spirit brought to my remembrance was to ask whether he did better for me in 2021 than he did in 2020, which I affirmed. Then the holy spirit proceeded to ask whether, at the end of 2020,  did I not say it was my best year so far. I answered in the affirmative; at the end of 2020, I had said it was my best year yet despite the challenges faced. After that, he asked why I would think that his best for me would be in my yesterday (last year). Oh! I see it now; I was so encouraged and comforted that no matter how much I thought God blew my mind in 2021, God was going to do more in 2022, His best is inexhaustible. This is our covenant as children of God; as prophet Ezekiel documented in Chapter 36 verse 11, “God will do us better than our former days”. Also, Proverbs chapter 4 verse 18 tells us that the path of the righteous is like a shining light that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. Therefore, we know that the truth is established out of the mouth of two witnesses – I am confident that in 2022, God has more in store for us as his children, our experience of 2021 notwithstanding – There is more!

So, sisters, I welcome you to the year 2022, your season of more! Enjoy the best of God this year, in Jesus Name. Amen.

Loads of Love 💕

Your Sis

The Creative Power

By
 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

By
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

As They Went

By
  Dear Beautiful One, I trust that you are well and that this post meets you in great spirits.  Some time ago, I had a task at work that seemed very convoluted. I wasn't quite sure how to go about it, but as I started, it became clearer what I needed to do and how I needed to go about it. I have come to  realise  that one of the most significant milestones one could ever deal with is starting and because the enemy knows this, he tries to keep us from starting. Keeps us from starting to obey God or cultivating the right attitude or association.    This and other similar occurrences made me begin meditating on the power of starting.  Often  we are faced with so many undaunted decisions and uncertainties and get conflicted about the aftermath of a decision even before we begin. Frankly, we will never know what lies ahead if we never start.  So  the best way to know what lies ahead is to start. Start from where you are. Clarity comes from doing. My pastor usually buttresses this point
