The Place of Prayer



Dear Sisters,

I trust that you are doing very well. May this week be our week of possibilities and the supernatural.

Speaking about the supernatural:

The Place of Prayer is a major factor if we as believers must experience the supernatural. Let's take it to bible times, Moses, Joshua, Caleb, Elijah, Elisah, Samuel, Jehoshaphat, Esther, Hezekiah, Nehemiah......and the list goes on, defied the natural through prayers.

I know we've believed and prayed for things that are yet to manifest (the way we expected) in past years. I know it can be challenging praying and not getting result as desired. In the end, the only thing we can do is still to pray. Meanwhile, that God doesn't answer our prayers The way we've 'preplanned' the answer doesn't mean He did not answer.The Place of Prayer is our safe place and a place we cannot do without. Every time we pray something happens. Don't let the devil tell you otherwise. Things are altered. Though sometimes are yet to manifest physically. Infact, there are prayers that go into generations ahead of us to manifest. So, do not be discouraged; God hears our prayers. And no time spent in the place of Prayer is ever wasted. You will surely reap the reward. Remember, one shall serve and it shall be accounted for a generation.

We've started a new year, let us stay in the place of Prayer and stay faithful. Like Elijah in James 5:16-18, he continued praying until he got a response.

"Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years! Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops."
James 5:16‭-‬18 NLT

This year is not the time to leave things to chance. No! We would use our mouth in the place of Prayer to tell our lives, days, months and year the direction to go. Everyone that asketh receiveth, so get asking (in the place of prayer).

In the place of Prayer Hezekiah's death verdict was changed:
"About that time Hezekiah became deathly ill, and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to visit him. He gave the king this message: “This is what the Lord says: Set your affairs in order, for you are going to die. You will not recover from this illness.” When Hezekiah heard this, he turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord"...2 Kings 20:1‭-‬2 NLT

How About Jehoshaphat:
"He prayed, “O Lord , God of our ancestors, you alone are the God who is in heaven. You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth. You are powerful and mighty; no one can stand against you! They said, ‘Whenever we are faced with any calamity such as war, plague, or famine, we can come to stand in your presence before this Temple where your name is honored. We can cry out to you to save us, and you will hear us and rescue us.’ He said, “Listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem! Listen, King Jehoshaphat! This is what the Lord says: Do not be afraid! Don’t be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but God’s."
2 Chronicles 20:6‭, ‬9‭-‬9‭, ‬15 NLT

Sis, there's no better time to start than now. What a wonderful time we are in, that the Spirit makes intercession for us through unknown tongue.

Glory!

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 b...

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....
