Get Out From Among Them

Hello Sisters,

Happy Sunday to y'all. We have just a Sunday till the third Women of the God Kind Conference, 2018- INTIMATE. If you haven't made your reservation via registration, kindly do so now on the blog (it's FREEE).

I feel led to share with you today on 'peer pressure'. Sounds cliche and teen related, yeah. But the truth is peer pressure never ends when we attain adulthood, it is something that continues as long as we have people around us. As difficult as you might want to accept this truth, in my own view, I strongly believe handling peer pressure isn't difficult.

It takes wisdom and being truthful to yourself. Why should the people around you become a thorn in your flesh when you can always pull back. I have tried this severally and it works. I have had friends tell me they observed I pulled away from them. I do that because I discover that we are no longer compatible.

If you are not truthful to yourself about that toxic relationship, you are definitely going to be a victim of peer pressure. Likewise, if you do not take the right step (pulling back), you cannot escape its sting. Do not be scared to pull away from them, yes, you will miss the gist, the hangouts, the gossips and them, but you just have to be truthful to yourself.

Do not allow yourself to be stuck in the web of peer pressure. You have the right to make friendship and pull away (even if it is not included in the constitution). Sis, you need to pull away. You can't be like them because you are different. If they are not comfortable with your style, leave. Don't let them make you who you are not. Evil Communication corrupts good manners.

Perhaps, you have a benefit you're scared of loosing, rest in this, as long as it's the right thing, My God will take care of you. You won't fail that course, you won't starve, you won't look tattered, you're gonna be just fine. Trust me.

When two people that do not agree walk together, there will be peer pressure. When two people of different orientations work together, there will be peer pressure. Keep being the 'good girl' you are (and aspiring to be). Walk with like-minds, there is always someone like you and even better than you.

And...do not be in the peer pressure gang!

God bless you richly.
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

 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 ...
