I encourage you all to contribute with your comments and suggestions this new year. As we end this year,what are your expectations and resolutions and plans for the coming year? Has this year been good to you? Do you think the new year will be better? I know we all have expectations and resolutions. Have you written them down? Its easier to remember things when you write them down. Write them down. Ask God for grace to accomplish them all this new year. If you always party into the new year. While don't you take time out to pray into this new year. I trust that as you seal your new year with God"s favor and grace, it will be a fulfilling new year for you. Happy new year"s eve

BEAUTIFUL ENDING Everything starts with the first step. A child goes from crawling to walking by taking the first step. The first step is always the one we dread the most. Whether its starting a project or a family. Starting that career or relationship. Taking the first action is the scariest and funny enough the most important. A wise man once said;you dont have to see the whole staircase,just take the first step. When driving in the dark for instance,and you put on your headlights. You do not see the whole road,you only see a few meters in front of you. Do you pack your car and switch off the ignition? No! You keep driving.because you know that all thats important is the next few meters,then the next and the next. The next few steps may be bumpy and rough but as long as you took the first step.you will get all the help you need to seethat journey through. Remember,afterall you have taken so much time preparing yourself and equipping yourself. You are armed with all you need and any o...

The week has been very busy with loads of physical work around the house involved. Cleaning,decluttering and slight rearrangement around the house. Now i appreciate the work that Interior decorators do. i must say i am pretty good at this stuff.lol As the year comes to an end,i cannot help but wonder how we gathered up so much stuff around the house. Most of which we have absolutely no need for. I also realised that as we( my lil bro helped out) started to declutter,the space kind of brought a feeling of more clarity. Clutter can truly be depressing. When you have all this stuff around that you have not used in years. Sometimes its better to take a day off(weekends are better) to clean and clear. I promise you one thing. When you are done,you will feel a sense of satisfaction and who doesnt love some extra s...

Lets say this is a page filled with God's promises. I was listening to some music by Israel Houghton this morning before praying and it got me thinking. Do you know that most times we forget that we are not alone in this world? We forget that someone has got our back no matter what? When we make mistakes and do things that contradict our values we beat ourselves up and have guilty feelings for so long we can’t even make rational decisions anymore? We get into a dark patch in life and we feel like it’s over for us? We forget that we have a God who has promised that he would never leave or forsake us. The only one who can boldly say that nothing living, dead, visible, invisible, mortal, immortal can separate us from his love? It’s in our nature as humans to forget good things so easily that’s why he reminds to awaken our spirit so that we can be in constant connection with him (God) We get really busy and burdened down with everyday worries of work, family, and school and when...

As the year winds to an end, its easy to start beating yourself up for goals that have not yet come to reality. You may feel disappointed and discouraged. It is a trick of the devil to distract you from this very important time of the year. This time is not only for evaluation of the present ending year but a time for sowing. Its a time to sow seeds that you want to see fruits manifest in 2011. Remember the story of the wheat and weed in Matthew 13 vs 24-30. When the farmer (You and me) sowed good seed then the enemy came and planted thorns (bad friends, bad experiences) among them. Jesus said, let them grow together till the time of harvest then separate the wheat from the thorns and burn them. If the enemy planted thorns in your life this year and they choked the life out of you making you less productive; this is the time to harvest. Some things may not happen except through prayer and fasting. You can dedicate a few days in this remaining time of the year to fast and pray...

Hello people. I know i have been quiet for a while. I had a busy end of week and had to rest after the great time praising God for at least 8 hours at THE EXPERIENCE LAGOS 2010 This is an annual all night praise program that happens in Lagos every first Friday in December. This year's edition hosted Great gospel artists like Don Moen,Mary Mary, Chervelle Franklin, Panam Percy Paul, Ron kenoly, Judy Jacobs, Israel Houghton,Papa San ( Yay) and many more. It is always an indescribable experience. im having a hard time describing the event. how do you describe an 11 hr praise,worship,prayer, and dance session? see what i mean? Its a time we thank God for the year(what better way than to praise him for his mercy and grace). We also take time out to pray for the oncoming year. Hundreds of thousands of people leave home hours early just to secure choice seats at the event. Lagos becomes the place of the moment as ...

I want to believe But I’m having a hard time seeing Past what I see right now I want to be free But when I try to fly I realise, I don’t know how No one showed me how.                       Kirk Franklin (Help me believe) We can’t deny that sometimes we feel helpless, stuck, alone and hopeless. Like the world, your family and friends have moved on leaving you behind. You are unaware of the next step to take or the next move to make. You lost your job and have not been able to find one for a long time. You lost your loved one and you feel like life is empty and worthless without them. You lost all your money when the economy crashed. You are sick and the doctor has told you how much time he thinks you have left. It is eating your soul up. It’s killing you softly. The dawn of a new day is like another day in hell. There is this voice in your head that seem...

In his hierarchy of human needs triangle, the great psychologist Sigmund Freud recognises the sense of self actualization as the peak and ultimate need of every human being. This is the feeling of colossal satisfaction and optimal attainment. This is the feeling you get when you are working in the course of our life’s purpose What is one’s life’s purpose? To paraphrase the definition of my all time best author Paulo Coelho; your personal calling/Legend/destiny/Purpose is God’s blessing, it is the path that God chose for you here on earth. It is the path that God in his infinite wisdom and knowledge, knows that you will find self actualization when you walk in it. Your life’s purpose is your reason for living. It’s the reason you wake up every morning with and zeal to make a difference. Your life’s purpose is that which you know and feel without anyone telling you that you ought to be doing. Every Man’s (male and female) original purpose is in line with God’s will. This may...
