Yesterday was my late brother’s birthday and it was such a moment of silence for me because i could not stop thinking about him. Different thoughts of if he was here how we will be celebrating as a family.
Just a think back of what life would have been if he was with us but the truth is he is not here and nothing can bring him back. The only assurance we have is that he is in a good place with his heavenly father.
Some things we don’t understand but God does and only him can comfort in time of grief. I don’t know maybe you have lost someone due to the recent pandemic or not and you are currently griefing. I pray that God will comfort you and your family at this time.
The way we all grief is different, however we need the grace of God to help us to heal gradually as we get on with life. if you have ever experienced the death of a loved one you will see life from a different lens.
The question is are you heaven ready? if Jesus appears today have you lived your life so well that you will resurrect with him or you are not sure.
The bible says And it is appointed for men to die once but after this the judgement (Hebrews 9 :27 NKJV) .When we are gone there is no room for repentance.
Now that you have the chance make most of it living your life heaven ready. If you don’t know Jesus as your lord and saviour now is the time to accept him.
Say this prayer with me ‘Heavenly father I surrender my life to you, forgive me of all my sins, teach me to live a life that will glorify your name and help me to know you daily, take over my life oh lord now and forever more in Jesus name Amen.
Congratulations, you have made the right the decision. Please do look for a bible believing church around you to fellowship.
Let’s continue to live our ready in obedient to God’s word.
God bless you

Have ever been in a situation where you know that this is a God moment.
At first you might not realise but when you rewind back to the line of events you are grateful not to have missed the moment.
There have been many instants when God place someone in my heart and tell me to reach out.
It is easier now to do as I have matured in my Christian journey.
But there have been moments where I start to question no Lord this can not be you.
How do you want me to do it? I just let my reasoning take charge and just refuse to accept it but God always win.
I just go ahead and do it grudgingly.
Have you ever experienced such moments? What did you do?
The joy and peace that I feel afterwards can not be described because I just know that this is a God moment and I am someone answered prayer.
When you miss the moment you are not at peace with yourself because you just know that something is not right.
I pray for the grace to obey the voice of God daily and make most of the opportunity to be a blessing to people that we come across in every walks of life in Jesus name Amen.
Be a blessing to someone today.
God bless you

What are you most grateful for at this position in your life?
Despite what is going on out there, the fact that we are here and breathing is a major thing to be grateful for.
I have loads of things that I am grateful for but I will share seven of them.
First is the gift of life( when there is life there is hope)
Secondly my salvation ( accepting Jesus as my lord and saviour) that is the greatest gift to mankind
Thirdly my family ( I do not take it for granted)
Fourthly, my friends ( you guys rock)
Fifth, opportunity to earn a living ( I am grateful)
Six, United Kingdom.
Seven, the church of God.
There are others but I will leave it at the seven mentioned above.
When we are grateful for the things we have, it will position our mind to trust God for the things that are yet to happen.
“being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;”
Philippians 1:6 NKJV
What are most grateful for?
God bless you

I was checking online for what is currently on offer on a sales app and a product caught my attention.
I ate it before at the restaurant and it taste good so I decided to buy and prep at home.
Little did I know what I ate prior is totally different from what I am about buy online.
As I read through the reviews/ comments it made me to rethink if I really need to buy it.
The power of reviews…..
Have you ever been there?
Similarly in the same vein we can make up our mind about people without getting to know them because of what we listened to or read about them.
I remember the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman (John 4 vs 1 -45).
Jesus tired from a long walk, sat beside a well and soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water and Jesus said to her ” Please give me a drink”
The woman and Jesus had a lengthy conversation where Jesus told her everything she ever did.
Unknown to her it was the day of visitation.
As soon as she realised that she was talking to the messiah.
She left her jar and ran to the village telling everyone to come and see a man who told her everything she ever did.
Could he possibly be the Messiah?
So the people came streaming from the village to see him.
Who will not want to meet with the messiah?
And through her encounter many Samaritan from the village believed in Jesus because the woman had said ”He told me everything I ever did”.
What a great review/comment with just few hours of conversation!
The people wanted more from Jesus and begged him to stay in their village.
So he stayed for two days, long enough for many more to hear his message and believe.
Everyone that came to see him said to the woman,
Now we believe not just because you told us but because we have heard him ourselves.
Exactly how we will react when the positive reviews goes way beyond expectations.
Have you ever shared your salvation journey with a friend or someone you know might need it in the season.
Your testimony, healing and everything Jesus has done for you can save and deliver someone out there.
I encourage you share your testimony about Jesus Christ to someone so that the one’s who don’t know him yet can get saved.
Go ahead and share your testimonies, just like the Samaritan woman did.
God bless you

Welcome to the 6th month of the year. That is to say, we are half way through 2020.
How are you doing? Above all we are looking unto God to heal and have mercy upon us.
However, we have to remain strong and keep encouraging ourselves in the lord.
That is to say, there is hope for the Bible tells us that ” For I know the thoughts that i think towards you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you a future and hope” (Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV)
Stay Encouraged.
God bless you.

I consumed too much food yesterday that I felt so uncomfortable. This was due to the Meatpie I baked earlier in the morning.
It was crusty and delicious that I could not stop eating it.
Then later in the evening my friend brought me some party jollof , fried rice with other delicacies that I could not resist.
Above is the reason why I binged on food all day.
In other to feel better I prepared lemon water but that did not help at all.
The honest truth is that the food is not running away so the reason why I decided to binge eating I don’t know.
Have you ever been there before? What did you do?
It is always a good idea to listen to your body and know when to stop not just relating to food, but every aspect of life.
Is there something that the lord has been trying to tell you or has told you recently but you are disobeying?
I only sampled the food and scooped up few spoons from each bowl and did not think I was over eating.
If only I did listen to body😭.
What is the lord telling you during this season? That you have not taken your time to listen.
“As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams.”
I Samuel 15:22B NKJV
Don’t you sometimes wish you have obeyed, because not obeying can cost you a lot.
I encourage you to be obedient and do what the Lord had asked you to do.
