DAY EIGHT: INTERCESSION: BROKEN HOMES

Welcome to day eight.

Have you ever had a friend from a broken home?
Or have you personally been a victim of a broken home?

How was the feeling like?

Growing up, I had a bestfriend from a broken home.
I remember how she'd come to school almost every morning with tears and scars all over her body.
It's sad how her life turned upside down from the effects of the confusion in her home.

To God's glory, she has picked herself up and is working towards her goals. I become very proud of her every time she comes to mind.

Beloved, many are the people who are silently going through heartaches in their homes: they come out full of smiles but behind closed doors, they are going through so much suffering and overwhelming pain.

I want us to passionately intercede for such families in the name of Jesus Christ.
If you know anyone in this kind of predicament you can mention their names as you pray for them.

1. We are asking God to take His rightful place in the homes of such people in the name of Jesus Christ.

2. We are asking God to grant the spouses of such homes an overflow of His Agape love in the name of Jesus Christ!

3. We are asking the Holy Spirit to teach spouses how to correct each other and communicate in love.

4. We are committing all children in such homes in the hands of Jesus Christ. We are asking Jesus to show Himself strong in their lives and be the Lord of their lives.

5. Finally, we are asking the Lord, the Prince of Peace...to let His Peace reign supreme in such families in the name of Jesus Christ!

God bless you for making Intercession for these families.

It's still #SHARINGLIFE.

Let's start 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...

Day six: The perfect start

Waking up to pray has been extremely hard to do in the past few days. For some time now, I wake up in the mornings feeling more tired than I went to bed. And so although my eyes are open, it is a real struggle getting out of the bed. Initially, this morning, I was feeling bad about it. After a few minutes, I resolved to pray from my bed. I did that… and ended up sleeping at a point . It was better than nothing. That moment taught me that the perfect start is the one that happens from exactly where you are. There is a reason why God wants this relationship with us: aside from the fact that it is a love thing, God also knows that we truly and sincerely cannot make it in this life without Him. He Is not looking for a perfect daughter neither is He searching for a perfect son. He Is perfect and His perfection is enough for all of us. I remember those times when I would tell my spiritual father I was struggling to pray. He would say to me: Why don’t you ask the Lord to help you? Why d...

Day twelve: My Shepherd

I was reading the book, "In Him" by Kenneth E. Hagin and in the book, he wrote: The Lord Is my Shepherd. I do not want. I do not want for ability. I do not want to strength. I do not want for money. I do not want for anything. The Lord is my Shepherd. These words by this man ministered life to me and it got me thinking: So often, we find ourselves reading Psalm 23 and it is easy for us to just look at those words exactly as they are in the Bible without translating them into our present circumstances and the seasons in which we find ourselves. The angle provided by Kenneth Hagin has shed light on who Jesus really is as my Shepherd. He is not the kind of Shepherd who wants to be irrelevant in the affairs of His sheep. He very much wants to be a part of it. Consequently, as a Shepherd who sees to it that His sheep lack no good thing, He remains committed to ensuring that all our needs and lack are provided for. It says, there is nothing I shall want . W...
