About Me

My photo
Every day I pray and battle with my mission to start pleasing God and stop satisfying myself and appeasing others. Defeats in this battle have cost me a lot, where prayers, praise and God’s Word have brought some miraculous victories. It is not because my daddy is a preacher or because I was always in church, that I see God not as a casualty but a necessity. However, at 23 my experiences and understanding that IT MAY NOT BE EASY TO DO THE RIGHT THING BUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF DOING THE WRONG THINGS ARE TOO HARD TO DEAL WITH, have brought the Sunday school lessons, the sermons, and the prayers into perspective. Being perfect is unpractical but being young and saved is not! I've done a whole lot of something for nothing. But after meeting Jesus Christ I decided I would give anything to have Him as my Everything!

WHATEVER YOU DO OR ARE DOING…DON’T STOP PRAYING!

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY!!!

...The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. James 5:16
You ever not feel like praying? …or wanted to pray and felt like your voice was the last words God wanted to hear?...or tried to pray and couldn’t find the words?
WHATEVER YOU DO OR ARE DOING…DON’T STOP PRAYING!
God loves a broken and contrite heart…and He wants to hear from you….YES YOU! Don’t be deceived by the enemy, and not pray about a situation, during the situation. Thats what he wants you to do. The enemy understands that PRAYER CHANGES THINGS because the One you pray to has the power to transform any situation whether it is big or small. He has the power to help you, especialy when you cannot help yourself.


It is easy not  todo, what we don’t feel like doing…even when it is what we need to be doing the most. I encourage you to pray! It doesn’t have to be long, ‘GOD I NEED YOU!’ goes further than you could ever imagine. Sometimes I find myself at a lost for words and pray someone else’s prayer from the bible , like Psalms 51 below, because how fitting it is many times in my life. No matter what you say or how you say it, just say it and trust God.

Psalm 51 "Be gracious to me, O God, according to Thy lovingkindness; According to the greatness of Thy compassion blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I know my transgressions, And my sin is ever before me. 4 Against Thee, Thee only, I have sinned, And done what is evil in Thy sight, So that Thou art justified when Thou dost speak, And blameless when Thou dost judge. 5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. 6 Behold, Thou dost desire truth in the innermost being, And in the hidden part Thou wilt make me know wisdom. 7 Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 Make me to hear joy and gladness, Let the bones which Thou hast broken rejoice. 9 Hide Thy face from my sins, And blot out all my iniquities. 10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. 11 Do not cast me away from Thy presence, And do not take Thy Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation, And sustain me with a willing spirit. 13 Then I will teach transgressors Thy ways, And sinners will be converted to Thee. 14 Deliver me from bloodguiltness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; Then my tongue will joyfully sing of Thy righteousness. 15 O Lord, open my lips, That my mouth may declare Thy praise. 16 For Thou dost not delight in sacrifice, otherwise I would give it; Thou art not pleased with burnt offering. 17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise... Amen
