Imperfect But Willing
I was meditating on Genesis 12, and one thing keeps standing out to me: God chooses to use anyone, no matter their background. Abraham didn’t grow up in a perfect home. His father worshipped idols, yet God still spoke to him. That tells me God is not looking at where you are coming from; He is looking at whether you are willing to listen and obey. God said something very simple to Abraham: “Leave… and I will show you. Follow Me, and I will make you.” God did not explain what would happen on the…

The Sheep and The Shepherd
A shepherd’s job is simple but important. A good shepherd leads the sheep to green grass and clean water. The sheep do not know the way by themselves, so they must listen and follow. When the sheep obey, they are safe and well fed.The Bible tells us, “The Lord is my Shepherd; I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters” (Psalm 23:1–2). God is the Shepherd, and we are the sheep. Now let’s look at our own lives as Christians. Who is leading, and who is…

Have We Forgotten That Our Pastors Are Human Too?
Lately, I’ve been thinking about how quick we are to reach for our phones whenever something goes wrong. A bad dream, a sudden worry, or a difficult moment and our first thought is, “Let me call my pastor.” But what if we paused for a moment before making that call? What if we reminded ourselves that pastors are human too: fragile, emotional, and sometimes weary? We often forget that behind the pulpit and the powerful prayers is a person who also gets discouraged, who sometimes cries in silence, and who longs for uninterrupted rest. Many…

The Secret Place
It’s not hard to recognise those who haven’t yet encountered Abba Father for themselves.Their walk is often shaped more by the voices of men than by the voice of God. Some have only ever known the voice of their pastor. They honour the pulpit, but they’ve never learned to dwell in the secret place. So when someone outside the clergy speaks with boldness or clarity, they question it because in their minds, only pastors hear from God. God desires relationship with all His children. We are all anointed. We are all invited. He longs to…

Bless The Lord – What Does That Really Mean?
I was reading through my journal this morning and came across an entry I dated February 2006. As I read it, I felt led to share it, maybe it will bless someone, just as it reminded me again of God’s greatness. I’ve been sitting with this phrase: “Bless the Lord.”What does that really mean? To bless is to give something.To offer joy.To pour out love.And when it comes to God, it means giving Him something that truly touches His heart which is our praise. But then the question hit me hard: How can I bless…
Keep readingRaising A Generation That Honours God
I saw a headline on a friend’s WhatsApp status: “18-year-old Impregnates 10 Girls.” The person who shared it made a comment about the failure of fathers or something along those lines. As I read it, something stirred in me. And this was my response… Do we even know if his father was reckless too—or if every male figure in his life failed him? It’s so easy to look at someone’s actions and shake our heads, but I often wonder: what did they see growing up? Who taught them—or didn’t teach them—what love, responsibility, and honour…

Learning To Trust The Good Shepherd
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul…” — Psalm 23:1–3a (ESV) A good shepherd doesn’t just lead for the sake of movement—he leads with intention, with care, and with love. His eyes are always on the well-being of his sheep, guiding them gently to green pastures where their needs are met and their souls are refreshed. But for this to happen, the sheep must follow. As Christians, this picture mirrors our journey with God. We…

“Giving Birth Like Hebrew Women?”
We’ve all heard it—“You will give birth like the Hebrew women.” It’s a phrase often thrown around in churches, especially within African communities. It’s said as a blessing, a declaration of strength, a sign of divine favour. But what if I told you that this phrase, though well-meaning, has placed a silent but heavy burden on many women? Let’s talk about it. Where Did This Phrase Come From? The phrase originates from Exodus 1:15–19. Pharaoh, fearing the growth of the Israelites, told the Hebrew midwives to kill all male babies at birth. When he questioned…

What Really Matters In The Church Today
There’s something I’ve been carrying in my heart, and I finally shared it in my latest podcast episode titled “Let’s Refocus: What Really Matters In The Church Today.” We’ve become so caught up in discussions—about tithing, gospel artists, how worship should look—that we’ve lost sight of the heart of the Gospel. I believe God is calling us back to focus on what truly matters: salvation, discipleship, and living ready for Christ’s return. If you’ve been feeling drained or discouraged by the noise, I invite you to pause and listen to this episode. It’s a heartfelt…
