He is Good to All

By
Dear Sisters,

Still in the spirit of thanksgiving for the year 2017, I'd be addressing a sensitive topic today.

I have an aunt who I once stayed with for a short time while in school. In all sincerity, she is all shades of nice and calm, and one will think I will very close to her. But one thing drew a clear boundary between us- her act of murmuring.

I liked her much and really, she never wronged me all through my stay. But I couldn't deal with her act of murmuring and complaining. She never sees anything good in even the obvious. For instance, I could compliment her dressing and rather than give a simple 'thank you', she would begin to lament over the economy of the country and how she was suffering and how things were bad. At times, she could even say, "is this one good?" with all sense of seriousness. This was her lifestyle.

Even though I could always go spend the weekend with her whenever I liked, I at times found myself not visiting a whole session and even for two consecutive sessions. I couldn't deal with it. I was just too uncomfortable around her. I found it absurd that someone could be like that- not see anything good in everything. I always heard such in stories and illustrations in church about such people before then, but  thought they were mere exaggerations. But I found one in reality.

Now, think of it, if I drew a clear boundary between myself and my aunt because I couldn't stand her having to complain and murmur, how much more God? He cant stand it. Its iniquity to Him, and that's why nothing gets better with complaining , because God is not there anymore.

There is always a good in everything. I have personally trained myself to see the abundance of good in one seemingly bad, which makes thanksgiving much easy for me. Impossible right? Well, you're wrong. You can cultivate that habit too.

There are just so many things to be thankful for. If my aunt's character describes you, please, kindly make a turn today and offer the fruit of your lips to this good God. His word says, He is good to ALL (Psalm 145:9)- which includes you.

Much love,

Your Sis

Purposefully Marching Forward

  Dear Sisters,  Happy New Month! Welcome to March,  the month  where God is moving us  further  in purpose.   I trust that you and yours are doing well and keeping safe. It ' s so good to be on here.    I was studying the ministry of Elisha recently ,  and  I  took not e  of  his dimension of impact.  What a man! He carried  a  double portion of Elijah ' s anointing ,  and Elijah was not small in any   way.  While Elijah and Elisha were very similar, they were distinct in their  purpose  and those they were sent to,  nothwithstanding  the measure of anointing .    Most of Elijah ' s miracles were inclined to life and death. On the other hand, most of Elisha ' s miracles were restoration  based like  healing  people and nations .   Therefore, it can be said that Elisha was a prophet of grace while Elijah was a prophet of judgment. Elijah g...

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 b...

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 ...
