At the Gates of Hell: a Testimony

It was Census day, on the night of May 10th, when my mother's younger sister almost gave up the ghost.Earlier that week, one of my prayer partner had suggested we had an overnight that Friday. I had not felt a go-ahead from God though. But I didn't want to be so rude. Somehow, God confirmed …

Inheritance Redefined

Proverbs‬ ‭22‬:‭6‬ Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it.‭‭‭ To train means: to teach so as to make fit, qualified, or proficient or to form by instruction, discipline, or drill. I saw someone post that a good name is an inheritance. …

Sow Abundantly

2 Corinthians 9:6 But this [I say], He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. One time I was praying with my sister, and I felt like we had been praying a lot! As though He had read my thoughts, the Holy Spirit bellowed, "Sow sparingly …

Stirring

I was at a café last week when I sipped coffee and it didn’t pleasantly swim down my throat. I had put in the sugar however! “But you did not stir. Did you?” God question tagged me. I then stirred the sugar that had been at the bottom, and the reel of the man from …

Myopic Prayer

One of my aunties was asking me to pray for her daughters (my cousins), but I stopped in my wake. We had always been praying for two things time to time: jobs and marriage, jobs and marriage, jobs and marriage. This time of sharing, I posed a question to her — and I'm grateful she …

Remember Hannah

Last Friday, I was frustrated, once again, that the dream of music publishing seems not to crack out the egg. In deep agony I asked God what I'd be missing. This is what resonated in my spirit; "Remember Hannah." So what about Hannah?! You'd be wondering. Well, remember she — like Rachel — received no …

When God Meets You

As the year began yesterday, I rejoiced in the word that God crowns your year with His goodness, and His paths drip with abundance, typical of Psalm 65:11. This goodness — one must note — that it is not their own but God's: HIS. Your goodness is not as His. Yours falls short. Just like …

Windows of Heaven

I'm writing this based in a town called Naalya, a part of the Kampala Greater Metropolitan Area in Uganda. For the past month or so, it's been raining heavily, and recently, it's been shocking many, by falling as many times as thrice a day: from about 3am to 7am, then at around midday, then at …

Proximity & God

Matthew 8:14-15 Now when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever. So He touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served them. In the above text, we see Jesus heal by touch. By proximity. There was contact between Him and the …

Before you Call…

I had done some work for a company, and my payment from them was long overdue. I delivered on 24th February, on short notice. Funds were promised the following Friday, 3rd March. I had forwarded all necessary documents required the day before. Still it took long. I'd been told the money takes 4-5 days to …

Availeth Much

James 5:16b says 'The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.' When Peter and John approached the lame man at the gate Beautiful, he was asking for alms. His prayer for the day must have been to be provided for a meal. When he was miraculously healed, there was much more to it …

Grace for Grace (a Prayer)

John 1:16 And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need I know GRACE as the ability to stand besides being the unmerited favor of God. …

Edification

When the scriptures say we must always pray and not cease, it's because there is a possibility and way for this to happen. The other night I awoke at about 1 am. I was conscious, but my eyes were closed. I then could hear, distinctively, a voice I knew speaking. It was like hearing someone …

Mystery of Tongues 2: Multidimensionality

From the last blog, a reader asked me whether indeed the enemy doesn't understand tongues seeing that in Acts 2, when the gift first made an appearance, men understood it. But they didn't understand it. They rather were confused. The Bible says; "And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because …

Mystery of Tongues

This is a revelation God shared with me, an idea of how tongues operate... The enemy has been around thousands of years and so he must have studied & seen civilizations come and go, or flourish and collapse. He witnessed the tower of Babel, and I think started his journey of becoming a linguist. From …
