Faith Comes by Hearing


My Dearest Sisters,

Happy New week! This week, something phenomenal shall happen to you in Jesus Name. Amen.


I like to start my year charged and equipped by reading the Word and other relevant materials. Ofcourse, this is an all year exercise however I take particular care to do this at the beginning of the year because it puts the year in perspective.

Why is reading the Word so important? it builds your faith. There's no faith outside the Word of God. To please God and reach our destinies, we need faith. That is why any and every atrack we face is an attempt to attack our faith. Once the faith is attacked, destiny is attacked and so is our walk with God.

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."- Romans 10:17 KJV
You cannot 'overhear' the Word, it is a continuous thing. The process of faith is like that of a seed. A seed doesn't bring forth fruits the day it is planted, it requires continous watering and pruning for the fruits to come alive. The same applies to faith!
In most cases, faith does not manifest immediately you hear the word. However, the seed has been sown and we must continue 'hearing' for it to have expression.

As we have embarked on the year 2019, I admonish you to take the shield of faith and keep hearing the Word. Read books, listen to messages, study the word and meditate on them...don't be discouraged, if you haven't seen any change yet...your faith is rising. And remember faith does not answer to Time, Time answers to faith. Stay in faith!

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....
