Hey family. My apologies for the late post. I hope you are doing okay.

”Beloved friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and that you continually enjoy good health, just as your soul is prospering.“
‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭2‬ ‭TPT‬‬
THE HOLY BIBLE

This week can we focus on prayer and fasting. I feel that we are in one of the most significant years/times ever. This is the year where many people will either be sifted like wheat ;

”And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:“
‭‭Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭31‬ ‭KJV‬‬

or walk in the fullness of God’s favour and mercy.

”You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.“
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭65‬:‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It is a critical time for the church. The urgency in the spirit is that we all take our positions of intercession. This has nothing to do with a particular group of people called “intercessors” this is an alarm sounding to all who believe in The Lord Jesus Christ. This means that we should all be praying. Away with pulling blankets and slumbering. The devil is out sowing snares, traps , weeds on our paths. Destinies are being swapped while we are sound asleep after dishing out our prayer requests to “prayer warriors” .

The bible speaks about two prostitutes in the book of 1Kings 3

”“During the night this woman’s son died because she lay on him. So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I your servant was asleep. She put him by her breast and put her dead son by my breast.“
‭‭1 Kings‬ ‭3‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬

After her child died, she woke up and took someone’s child! This is what the devil does while we take it easy. There’s no time for cute! There’s no time for procrastination or postponement! This is the time to arise otherwise you will wake up one morning and realise, what you gave birth to, has been stolen. We do not have the luxury of folding hands! Man ought always to pray!

PRESS ON! Pray! Fast! Arise and travail!❤️

LET’s GO!!

Heys and hies!!! Everyweek, when we get to Friday I’m like ohhh we are really growing , you know, consistency is something that builds systems and learning to apply it takes a lot more than knowing what to write. It takes dedication, winning the battle of laziness , procrastination and just feeling like what if what I’m doing isn’t helping anyone ? What if this is just one other website that will eventually shush after a while? What if I’m not even writing things that make sense? It’s a whole lot of things to consider when taking up a new ministry or project but what stirs the gift and strengthens it is simply showing up!! I’m glad I’ve been showing up for a little over a month now! Praise Jesus! HAPPY NEW MONTH MY BELOVED FAM!

Since the first day of the March fell on a reflection Friday how’s about we reflect on the whole month of February. How was it for you? What things stood out for you? Any testimonies? What was the constant battle? Can you say for sure that your mind was yielded to Holy Spirit?

Looking back, what would you have done differently? Answer the questions below . These are not questions you answer with speed. Selah

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.“
‭‭Haggai‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Yesssss! It is our chilled Thursday! On this day we grab our popcorn and watch some movies or sermons! Did you guys watch the Esther movie last week? I loved it! My top 2 is The Pilgrim Progress and Esther .. I love watching Christian content because I don’t have to worry about scenes that create a sinful images in my mind. My cousin was asking me why I don’t watch movies with them , it’s because part of my consecration is to keep away from things that disturb my eyes and end up sitting on my spirit like a heavy rock. It’s hard to pray after watching all that! That being said, I do not watch horror movies!

It’s not even about struggling with stuff, it’s about guarding your eyes such that even a seed of evil cannot be planted. If you always watch movies where people take off panties, you’ll take off your panties soon enough. There are vibrations in everything you listen to and watch! They create a spiritual energy or tension that demands expression in the life of the one who beholds it. Drug people listen to a certain kind of music, so do alcoholics, it creates a mood that goes with the habit.

As a believer, I’m intentional about watching movies. I never used to think it matters , but it does. Some friends of mine were wondering why I watch cartoons or animations, it’s because I will not hear one cuss word after another, it’s obvious, you become what you behold and that’s why we are taught to fix our gaze on Jesus so that we become like Him! You’re that sexually active because you even set your eyes in sexually arousing content. Guard your eyes! You’ve no business being entertained by all that as a believer! It may look exciting but it is a destiny killer because soon, you will act out everything they’re “faking” on tv . Their fake will become your reality! Okayyyyyy! Now that I’ve typed all that, I’ve given you time to prepare the popcorn!

Firstly, I just wanna remind you that God loves YOU!

Worship is how we communicate our love to God. It is done by GOD LOVERS! People of intimacy! The ones who aren’t in it for daily bread only but for His very heart. God cannot be found in the flesh and that’s why the bible says He is seeking, He desires, He is looking , He longs, for those who will worship Him in Spirit and in truth. Not everyone is doing it that’s why He is looking for such a people! Worship done in the flesh is a waste of time! This is how we sing songs, do all the “worship acts” of lifting hands but we never connect to the heart of God because we ignore the part of “Spirit and truth!” WE CANNOT WORSHIP GOD HOWEVER WE WANT, there is a template! There is a guideline, there is a way into the holy of holies , we don’t enter by singing emotional songs, we enter by worship in Spirit and truth! Ask Him today, “Lord teach me how to worship You!” Because there are things we will carry over to the other side, worship is one of them!!

”From now on, worshiping the Father will not be a matter of the right place but with a right heart. For God is a Spirit, and he longs to have sincere worshipers who adore him in the realm of the Spirit and in truth.”“
‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭TPT‬‬

”Every part of you is so beautiful, my darling. Perfect is your beauty, without flaw within.“
‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭4‬:‭7‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Some months ago my friends and l were watching a YouTube video of a lady who did a “Christian bbl” which is a surgery people do to be a number 8, get the hips, the breasts , the waist , all that. We had a conversation about it and l remember one of my friends asking this question, what is the purpose? What is the motive? Why? I believe many people don’t feel beautiful or handsome so deep down they struggle with confidence. While it’s something trivial to others , others are depressed because they don’t look a certain way.

The traditional stereotype is that young women are more concerned about their appearance than young men. Societal pressures, media images, and doting relatives saying how pretty a female child looks all have an impact. But how serious an impact can it have on our wellbeing and our mental health? And just how much does our body image trouble us as we get older? How much of the trends affect how we believe scripture when it says WE ARE ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

One in eight (13%) adults experienced suicidal thoughts or feelings because of concerns about their body image according to UK statistics. Globally, the prevalence of body shaming was found to be in the range of 25 to 35 percent. Some are either affected by bullying or inner conflict. This is why we need to yield our minds to the Holy Spirit because He brings truth to destroy the lies of the enemy, the devil says if your picture is not liked on Instagram you’re ugly! That is a lie! People’s likes on social media do not rate your beauty! People’s opinions do not override the what the Word of God says about you!

Away with the insecurities! Away with the mental prison of “you don’t look like Beyoncé so you’re ugly!” The account of creation does not say we were created to look like the models but GOD HIMSELF. Your mind must be reprogrammed, renewed, transformed because there are somethings you will miss out on simply because you are not confident enough! Walk like you’re a child of God! Show up as the fearfully and wonderfully made person you were created to be! So what if they think you’re too dark? Who are they anyway? God has already given us a five star review, everything else is a lie including what the silly boy said!

People who feel insecure about themselves usually project it on others. Don’t rub off your insecurities on other people. If you have a problem with your pimples don’t go to those who don’t have a problem with theirs and plant a seed of low self esteem. Best believe, they already know they have them. The mirror told them. If you are not confident about your weight don’t be saying stuff like “oh you’re fat” to people who are confident with their weight. The scale told them. They’re very much aware.
Don’t rub off your negativity on people. If you find people positive in whatever they do, respect that. Don’t tell people about things you’d crash if they told you! Words carry so much weight! They sow seeds of many wicked thoughts! Basically, stay in your lane. Focus on what matters, there’s no reason why you should be focusing on someone’s skin when you can focus on prayer. I used to be that person but Holy Spirit called me out saying , “You are making many people cry because of your careless words! Nobody wants to hear it from you that they are skinny, they know.

DO NOT BREAK OTHER PEOPLE because YOU ARE BROKEN”

Remember, you are rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
