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!

YOU ARE NOT AS 'MESSED UP' AS YOU THINK!

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY!!!
Ephesians 1: 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.


No matter how saved and holy we are (or think we are)… we will ALWAYS, and I repeat ALWAYSfall short of the glory of God, and I am GLAD that we have an advocate in Jesus Christ, because He is one who sticks closer than a brother… and loves us unconditionally, even when we slip up and make mistakes in life!


Know that God is YOUR Father… He is NOT just some sort of distant cosmic entity, that is FAR from you and untouchable to you… but He is the one who breathed life in you and calls you His son, or His daughter.




Even when you mess up and fall short of His glory (which you better believe you will)… He will ALWAYS love you and be pleased with you. He may not always be pleased with your actions or thoughts… but you as a person, He will ALWAYS love!


Now that doesn’t mean you have a license to PURPOSELY sin and live a life of hell because of His forgiving grace. Hebrews 10:26 tells us:


“If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.”


DECLARATION OF FAITH: God thanks for loving me unconditional and everlasting. I acknowledge the fact that I have done things in my life that I am not proud of… but I know if I turn them over to you in faith, that you will continue to mold me into the man or woman of God that you have destined me to be.






Be blessed today!
