  • Renewed Hope
    God is good all the times to those who put their trust in Him.
    Hopelessness exposes emptiness because it shows what your mind is filled with.
    If your mind is full of God's word, then your hope is renewed in the light of God's word.
    The fruit of the Spirit is not seasonal. No matter what we go through in life, we don't stop bearing fruits - even when we find ourselves in circumstances that we can't comprehend, we go through them with the peace that passes human understanding.

  • Simple, Sincere and Steadfast
    Every step you take away from God complicates your life and multiplies your struggles.
    Prayer is humility. It is testifying that God is God and you’re not. That you’re limited and He’s not!
    Every step you take away from God deepens the void that nothing else can fill.
    Keep your prayers simple, sincere and steadfast.
    Prayer is humility, consistency, sincerity and simplicity. Men ought always to pray and not to faint!

  • Understanding Deception

    Deception is a seed, sin is the fruit and manipulation is the fertilizer.

    What is produced through deception is sustained through manipulation and it blossoms eventually into destruction.

    Whatever you're willing to compromise God's standard for is an idol in your heart - and you expose deceptions by exposing your idols.

    By evaluating your unchecked desires, you will find the idols that you need to expose.

    Be vigilant and watchful where you give your worship. What you expose, God will uproot - much more, He invites you to walk with Him.

  • Prisoner for the LORD

    The way to conquer sin is not by working hard to change your deeds, but by trusting Jesus to change/transform your desires.

    Our greatest need is not to try harder, it is a new heart, that produces new desires. Far more important than looking and searching for God's will, it is simply knowing and trusting God that the work He's doing in us is purposeful, progressive and perfect.

    In Ephesians 4:1, Apostle Paul admonished the believers to live a life worthy of the calling we have received as a "Prisoner of the Lord".

    Trust what God is doing in you, rest in it, decide to be a prisoner of the Lord and draw your strength from Him.

    A prisoner for the Lord is one who is a prisoner to the Lord's will, His desires and His purposes.

  • Stay Alert

    There's a woke culture that has removed conviction of sin and repentance from the gospel.

    • It calls conviction condemnation,
    • embracing the destruction of the family structure under the pretense of love, compassion, inclusivity,
    • embracing sexual pervasion like homosexuality under the pretense of love and kindness,
    • promoting revival without repentance, salvation without repentance from sin, the Holy Spirit without the Holy Scriptures,
    • Holiness that doesn't have to change you, and in trying to be woke - many have broadened the narrow way.

      • Don't be woke, stay alert, stay awake, be awakened unto righteousness and stay under the authority of scriptures!

      The woke culture operates by subtracting from the scriptures, add a little individual opinion, then manipulate the narrative of scriptures to say what you want to say, publicly contradicts the truth to convince people mentally and emotionally. All powered by the progressive ideology that the Bible is not perfect and that the Bible is not complete - so it moves with the time to manipulate the Bible in order to be friendly with the cultures of the time.

      Don't fall for the nonsense, stay awake, stay alert, watch and pray and don't fall for the woke culture!

    • Ishmael Over Isaac

      Abraham was willing to give up Isaac, but He was negotiating with God on Ishmael.

      Surrendering to God means surrendering everything. Don't hold on to Ismael and let go of Isaac!

      What is that thing in your life that represents Ishmael? God is asking for it today.

    • Your Miracle is Bigger than You

      We don't often know what we need until God provides it. Our prayers shouldn't be based on what we're going through but according to what the word of God says which reveals the will of God for us and for the people who are connected to us.

      • Maybe the miracle you're praying for is beyond you
        • that the timing of your miracle is also a sign for someone else's miracle, and
        • God is deliberate about what He does for you in connection with what He does for others.

        • The Comparison Calculus

          People's opinions of you will shift like the current of the sea. The only thing that never changes is how God sees you.

          Insecurity is security placed on the wrong thing - stop the comparison. The problem is not what you know in your head but what you believe in your heart!

        • Don't Plan to Fail
          Don't Plan without God because you're not in control of time.
          Never make an absolute plan because you're not in absolute control. "If the Lord wills..." is a culture of thinking and living.
          Submit your small plans to God's big picture - in all your plannings, don't plan without God.

        • Snake Eggs in the Head

          Sin begins in the mind. Sin will become more than a thought if you allow it.

          The sinful mind will start with just one thought. The more you conceive, the more you give birth and what you think of continuously, you will eventually act on.

          Get the snake eggs out of your head and think on whatsoever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous and praise-worthy! Philippians 4.8
