DAY SIX: PRAYERS FOR CHRISTIAN STUDENTS

Hello, welcome to our sixth day of reflections.

I am very sorry for being late today.
I hope I'm forgiven.

I was privileged to visit a senior high school last weekend to share the Word of God with the students there.

The leader of the interaction talked about Holiness, drawing reference from 1Peter 1:15-16.

As I studied the countenance of the students, I realised the confusion on the faces of some of them.

When I had the chance to speak to them, I asked them whether following what the Scripture said was difficult and they responded in the affirmative.

Reflecting on my personal experience in an institution of higher learning, I dare say that it's indeed difficult to live Holy. Especially in this era when almost everything is good and right if it's "okay".
Truth is, I actually had a course mate confess to me some days ago that he thought I didn't have feelings at all because of my way of life.

Hmmm...

Today, I want us to pray that:
1. Christian Students will gird up the loins of their minds and stand firm in their faith in Jesus Christ.
2. Christian students will be shining examples of God's Grace in their various institutions.
3. Their lights will shine so bright that men will see and give glory to the Most High.
4. Christian Students will know their purpose in life and aspire to live them out to the Glory of God and with the help of the Holy Spirit.
5. Christian Students will never compromise on the standards of Heaven, just to find favour from men.

God bless us as we intercede for our brethren in institutions of learning.

It's still #SHARINGLIFE

Let's keep 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...

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...

3 Things I Admire About King David

  Hello Sharing Life fam! How is the going? I hope everything is kosher. One of the things I am most thankful for is to be a member of the Word & Spirit Feasts family. At the Word & Spirit Feasts, we have learnt how important structure is as we endeavour to be all that ABBA has called us to be. One of the principles that make a good spiritual structure is Bible Reading. I just finished 1Kings Chapter 2 and would like to share 3 things I admire about King David. 1.       King David did not entertain guilt and condemnation I have learnt that one thing the devil specialises in is condemnation. He is the accuser of the brethren for a reason. His commitment is in ensuring that we stay feeling bad for wrong done. One thing my spiritual father would say is: the devil will accuse of not doing the right thing and when you do the right thing, he will accuse you that it is not enough. That is what he does best. But, we see in 2Samuel 11 tha...
