FomePrays

“Great Exploits” was the theme of the 2025 FomePrays Annual Retreat. It was a three-day, power-packed gathering. As we journey through the days ahead, we will be reflecting deeply on this profound theme—Great Exploits—and what it truly means for our lives as believers.

Anyone can begin, but not everyone begins well. In a new venture, some may start by renting a space, buying supplies, or recording an introductory video. As believers, however, our first step should be to invite God in from the very beginning—not as a last resort when difficulties arise. #fomeprays #spirituality #religion #newbeginnings #newyear

In Isaiah 43, God reminded the Israelites of the mighty things He had done—victories, deliverance, and preservation. Then He said, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” (Isaiah 43:18–19). Notice the present continuous tense: I am doing a new thing. God is actively and continuously at work. He is already doing something new in your life today, for as long as you live, new opportunities and great exploits are possible.

The first time I heard “Tetelestai” was during the October edition of the Hallelujah Challenge hosted by Pastor Nathaniel Bassey. In that session, he unpacked the many dimensions of teleó and challenged us to complete the meanings prophetically with Scripture.

In a world that often encourages caution and self-preservation, Mary shows us the beauty of generosity and fearless devotion. Her act was also one of sacrifice.

From a spiritual standpoint, bad habits are harmful because they weaken our spiritual sensitivity, slow our growth, and ultimately produce negative fruit.

"Train up a child in the way he should go…” reminds us that when a child is not intentionally guided, he will naturally create his own path—and the direction of that path can be unpredictable and, at times, dangerous. It often takes the extraordinary grace of God to realign a child who has been left to follow his own impulses from an early age.

Disciplining a child could either be with the rod or by rebuke. Rod implies punishment, while rebuke suggests speech. Contrary to the worldview, it takes a combination of both punitive action and constructive criticism to properly discipline a child.
