Stop Talking, Start Praying

Hello Sisters,

You know, sometimes last week, something dropped in my Spirit. Are you really 'Asking' or you're merely 'Talking'?

Now, note that there is a wide gap between these words. There are times we actually feel we are praying to God about a particular thing/subject and we're feeling He isn't giving attention to our desires. Whereas, in the real sense, we are merely talking about it to people and never 'Prayed' about it.

Can someone relate to this? The moment this dawned on me, I felt really guilty thinking my desires weren't answered, when I was actually not praying about it. See it this way, why not put in the same level of energy and time investment you make in talking to others to Pray about your desires.

If you are presently in a condition as this, kindly bow your head and repent in your heart. God is not incapable, He is capable, reliable and ever dependable. Stop assuming you have prayed about it when you are merely talking to others about it. Do the needful now and pray about that matter.

I see you coming forth with your desired testimonies, and when they do, do not forget to write us on the homepage. We are waiting to celebrate God with you.

Much 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
