#DIY


I'm so excited to share this with you. Today I did something different(13/10/15). I decided to go public with my faith. Sounds weird right?
 Not something someone may just decide to do-going out public! Actually this project was laid in my heart exactly one month less four days ago
 but for one reason or the other I could not get the message printed out. 


I remember my father making this statement while I  was way younger-’ 
Christianity is an individualistic race.’
Never really did make much sense to me until I thought for a moment,
what happens if I don’t have anyone to monitor my growth? 
What happens if I am not accountable to anyone?
 Would I still do what my heavenly Father requires of me?


Sometimes,we could get so carried away with knowing about
 something that we don’t apply what we know(generally). 
When it comes to our christian faith,we’ve got to be careful enough -to DO! - not just -KNOW!-
And then as a youth,I know this is one thing so many never want to do :). Yeah! I know! So many things running through our mind like-what will my friends say? or cool people don't do that;or stuff like that. You know what? If its a love walk you have with God,you're sure going to do it FOR HIM! 
Or maybe nah! ForYou. Check this out:

Roman 12:14- So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.(NIV)

Can you see what I am seeing here? Not my dad,not my mum,not my Pastor,not my friend,but  I! I will be the one to give the account. This account will be of myself. Meaning there are so many things I can do to make Jesus famous if I just give myself to it.


Ecc.12:13-14- ‘13 The conclusion, when all has been heard, is:
 fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. 
14 For God will bring every act to judgment, 
everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.’(NASB)

Its what we do that matters to God. What we do with the things he has said to or given to us.
I believe that more than ever before,God wants us to share his love with others. He wants us to go radically outward and make people know they are loved. Everyone wants to know they are accepted irrespective of their past, present, weaknesses, failures or inadequacies. That's the message of God's love, yeah! :) ...for God so loved the world... you remember that line yeah? :)

So I decided to share this just to challenge you to #DIY- DoItYourself.
Maybe I should say -to encourage you- in-case you are already!
You will be amazed at the ideas you will have if you give it a thought.Trust me! 
So much of joy sharing this with people on the street and having people also interested in joining me... :)
So yeah,lets do this for the records! 

But in-case you as a person have not been able to get a hold on God's love for you, I just want you to know beyond the shadow of a doubt that God is the only one who knew and accepted you right from your conception. If you'll give it enough thought and allow Him have His way, He'll give you a deeper touch and understanding of who He is.


Thanks Mayor for allowing me post this picture! #unashamed!

Doors Do Open

Have you ever felt like you have exhausted all of your options and you can’t seem to find a way out?  Or you know that there is more that can be out of a case you are on? I can’t imagine what the widow whose husband left some debts for her to pay before he died must have gone through. Wait, you think all that happened is all there is. In the sense, you have pressed all your buttons and made all your moves. Knocked all the doors you know and made the calls. You now think its over. You think there’s no way out again? Be there! You seem to have forgotten so quick that God is the one that makes things happen. Look at the widow whose husband left her in debt. She was broke. No money no possession my sons up for sale kindof broke. Her two sons were going to be taken captive to pay for the debts that was on ground. Of course she was devastated. She had no possession to sell to get some money. The only thing she knew to do was to go meet Elisha who her husband served with. ...

Loyalty To God and His Word

I had the utmost privilege of sharing God's word in my local church, and I pray it blesses you.   Ruth.1:16-17- 16  But Ruth replied, “Don’t ask me to leave you and turn back. Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you live, I will live. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God.  17  Wherever you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May the  Lord  punish me severely if I allow anything but death to separate us!”  (NLT)   v  Introduction v  What does it mean to be loyal to the word?(From bible examples) v  Why Loyalty to the word/ Implications of being loyal to the word v  Conclusion v Introduction What does it mean to be a loyal person? Loyalty means being there for someone through the highs and lows, and staying by their side regardless of the circumstances. Loyalty involves accepting and loving someone for who they are, and not threatening to leave them when things become challenging.   Loyal...

The Blessings of KINDNESS

I find it an absolute delight to discover things in the scripture and share. It's such a beautiful thing for me.   The just shall live by faith is what scripture says ,  and our faith walk is to be guided by the word of God. Today, I'll be sharing something I found in  the bible steers God on our behalf. Here  it is :   Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor! The Lord rescues them when they are in trouble. The Lord protects them and   keeps them alive. He gives them prosperity in the land and rescues them from their enemies. The Lord nurses them when they are sick and restores them to health. Psalms 41:1-‬3 NLT   Certain things stood out in this passage, and they are : 1. "kind to the poor" 2. "The Lord rescues them when they are in trouble." 3. "The Lord protects them. 4. "and keeps them alive." 5. "He gives them prosperity in the land" 6. "and rescues them from their enemies." 7. "The Lord nurses them when th...
