Rejection Makes The Testimony Sweeter

How many times have we prayed for something and we didn't get what we want, but God had something better? Lol its so funny because we always forget how God is set up, there's been many cases like this in the Bible. When Abraham wanted a son so badly he slept with his maid out of desperation and made Ismael but it was Isaac who God wanted to give. Remember the story of Job who lost everything but God gave him double. Or Even Gideon who moaned about the captivity he and his people were in and even questioned God where is he? All these guys had the door closed for them but God opened a better door this is what we do we are so concerned and desperate for God to open that particular door we become frustrated, not knowing God has something better. This was the case for me for the last 6 years there's this company I've always wanted to work for I had an interview with them two weeks ago, the week previously I was praying and fighting, doing purposes for God showing I'm using my faith only to last Wednesday waking up to not getting the job. (Baring in mind the interviewer came 30 minutes late kmt.) I was disjointed and I told God it is what it is, I'm not happy but let your will be done, so I got ready for Bible study during the seeking of The Holy Spirit my phone was ringing (How embarrassing lol) So after the Bible study had finished it was a company saying they have a contract for me and they have my application baring in mind I had an interview with them, the day previous. See how God is sometimes we put our trust in Him, He'll always deliver, do you want to know why my blessing was from God, because I told my friend the story and she had told me that, that company I was fighting for underpays people lol, so imagine if I had got the job? it would've been hell. But lets not lean in our own understanding and let God bless us remember what we want, God wants better and will give us better.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch neme...

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ” Matthew 6:33 Disclaimer: What I’m about to talk will be sensitive as talking about spiritual priorities will offend some as it can be a touchy subject; this blog is to educate, help and inspire other Christians to put God first in everything. As someone who didn’t have any spiritual priorities over 3 years ago I have no right to judge or shade anyone, which is not my purpose or aim of this piece. The title must’ve got heads spinning and this is what I intended to do, because like I do, I always point out what wrong goes on in the Christian community and give a solution. We Stan celebrities, and when I mean Stan, if you don’t know the term from the iconic Eminem song, I mean radically idolize celebrities such as Beyonce where her fan base goes to far as insulting people online who don’t like her music, to even take a...
