DAY TWENTY-FIVE: FAITH

Welcome to day twenty-five!

Let's talk about faith today.

Have you ever attended a program whose special guest of honour was a very prominent person in the state?

Do you remember how elegantly the assembly was dressed?
Do you remember the excitement of the people who were at the event?

Let's come to our church setting.

Imagine what happens when the Bishop or the Archbishop of the church comes for service.

Do you see how the junior and senior pastors seek to impress him?

Look at the congregation: do you see how bright their clothing look?

Look at the pomp and pageantry exhibited during the service: the display of rich decor and the best equipment.

Talk of the all-night rehearsals to ensure that the best songs are sung during the service.

Hmmm...

Have you come across Hebrews 11:6?

My question to us all today is:

MUST WE WAIT TO SEE OUR FATHER, THE KING PHYSICALLY BEFORE WE BELIEVE THAT HE TRULY EXISTS?

We may say that we are different.....we are not culprits.

Just search within yourself and study how you behave when the general overseer comes around and how you behave when it's just any 'normal' church day.

Maybe you do not act that way: think about how your mind works when a very important church leader comes around and how your mind works when you tell yourself that it is 'just any other' Sunday.

This is no reason to say that our Father is only confined to the church building.

DO YOU GIVE JESUS YOUR VERY BEST?
OR IS IT RATHER DIFFICULT TO DO SO BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE HIM?

Jesus is everywhere.

He wants us to believe that He truly exists and live in the light of this knowledge.

The Holy Spirit will help us build our faith if we ask Him to.

Faith is a currency denomination of Heaven- that is why it moves mountains.

Without faith, you cannot please God.

Think about it.

It's still #SHARINGLIFE.

Don't stop sharing.

Go With God

When I started Sharing Life, my intention was to put out what I knew Holy Spirit was teaching me. This was what He asked me to do. It wasn't to parade myself as an all-figured-out girl who was on her way to becoming a preacher. It was a journey of life I was learning and one which I had received the go-ahead to let the world in on. Somewhere on this road, I was seen as a "Woman of God" and put on this high and mighty pedestal which wasn't me. And you know what, in such moments, it is so easy to get carried away by the accolades of men to the point where you lose sight of your journey, where you are and decide to serve the expectations of others... thereby neglecting your own journey and growth. After taking a very long break from active writing, I have on numerous occasions attempted to start writing again but the fear of being put on that pedestal has stopped me so many times. I am a child of God. I am a girl on a journey. I don't have it all f...

An Invitation to Intimacy

I gave my life to Jesus in St. Louis Senior High School. I am very sure I had gone forward for altar calls many times before that. But St. Louis was different. I was conscious; I was aware of myself and my environment. I knew I needed God in my life. To be honest, the issues of life drove me to take God seriously. A friend had had a dream about her and me and the moment she shared it, I knew I had to let go of the old garment and take on the new. So, I joined the Catholic Charismatic Renewal (CCR) meetings and that was where my life changed. That encounter led me to a great relationship with the Lord. I read the Scriptures (my favourite was the Book of Psalms because I used that to pray a lot). It was in St. Louis I learnt I was never alone (why do you think I support Liverpool FC so much?). I learnt to rely on Him alone. When I entered the University, I realized a newfound freedom and observed (by the Grace of God) that if I didn’t take my spirituality seriousl...

My journey with Holy Spirit

This might probably be the longest I will ever publish. Here we go... Senior High School I started my relationship with Holy Spirit in St. Louis Senior High School. At that time, my father was going through a bit of a struggle and I didn't want to be a burden to him. I had made a terrible decision to combine my chopbox with a friend's and when my provisions finished, I couldn't call home. I was sad and I remembered that daddy had told me that if I ever wanted to change and be a better human, I should start by reading the "Book of Proverbs". I came across Wisdom and I prayed for that Friendship and then someway somehow, I believed that I was never alone and that I had a Friend with me and that was when I starting fellowshiping with Holy Spirit. Prior to this, I remember when I was in class 6, I heard Someone share His heart with me. He asked me, " Why is it that when people have problems, they tell their friends about it and then their fr...
