The devil will come with his lies He will ask questions like  -Does He still answer?  -For how long will you keep praying? You've got to shut the devil up or else he will fill your head with constructive reasons that will clog your mind with doubts  Rebecca prayed for a child It didn't happen immediately but it did eventually and GOD gave her Benjamin and Joseph.  Joseph saw what the future held for him He was destined for greatness  He was destined for the palace But it didn't play out like we would have humanly expected  He first went by the Pit  Then to being a House Keeper (A promotion I would say, from the pit to House Keeping...lol) Next stop was the Prison Then the Palace Joseph experienced situations that didn't seem like it and could have made him wonder if GOD was involved in his life but that didn't stop him, neither did it affect his demeanor He knew he was headed somewhere ...

I was dazed by this amazing young lady, Gift Obetta. Her write up was the best at the event "Raising Timothy" organized by Mrs. Toyin Adeyemo @toeying_tystitches. I stood in amazement as she read out her write up with so much confidence and an obvious understanding that she knows that she indeed is a Gift to her world. This is what Gift had to say..... I AM A GIFT TO THE WORLD A gifted person construct, builds, creates and edifies. One who is full of strength, vigour and wisdom, One who stands out in all facets. A prominence, a pride to the world, always with the mindset of seeing opportunity in every challenge. One who is determined, dogged and resilient. What a virtue, I am a gift to the world. I am truly an epitome of my father Abraham leading an army of uncommon strength in the generation of possibilities because the word of God states thus: I can do all thing through Christ that strengthens me. I am a reference point of a godly life style with a fondness ...

I was studying the book of Genesis 10, the initial verses showed the genealogy of the descendants of Noah and so  I rushed and scanned through the genealogical part just the way  some of us do sometimes...lol... but when I got to verse 9, I had to pause. The very first sentence caught my attention. It reads: He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD." Nimrod was said to be a "mighty and great hunter before the Lord’. I kept repeating the words ‘was a great hunter before the Lord’.  Okay let’s break it down together... Nimrod was a hunter Nimrod was a great hunter Nimrod was a great hunter before people...No Nimrod was a great hunter before the LORD ......What am I before the LORD? Hmmmm....It is not a question of  ‘who you are’  but ‘ what you do ...for a living’ . You might be a banker, a doctor or teacher but that is not who you are, that...

"Baba Ola" as we fondly called you There was never a dull moment with you daddy You always had something of worth to say Not only were your words timely, they always lifted my spirit I thank GOD I was privileged to be your daughter *smiles* It was an awesome experience while it lasted I salute your tireless love and care I look at myself and my siblings; indeed you did your very best with us, you gave us the best, trained and mentored us with the whole of your heart I appreciate the fact that you gave us the best all round You were a great father I remember cutting your nails I also recall the evening drives round the city The pet name which you called me still rings in my ears You were never late for any event And you always stayed in the house minding your business...lol And how can I forget.....no matter what you ate, you always left some for us You plate was never empty after you've had a meal Even though we had ours I cherish the mo...

Words are powerful That's why it's important you think before speaking Because the words you speak cannot be taken back And sometimes the damage done cannot be reversed  When we speak people can see into our hearts Because we speak out of the contents of our hearts To know a man, listen to his words To know yourself, listen to the words you speak With your words you can create your world What you say is what you see And what you see is what you have said When you speak the right words Your life automatically aligns with it Watch what you say About yourself and even about others Be known to be a person who builds the spirit of men Rather than one who specializes in pulling others down  Be mindful of the words you speak.... eventually we will give account of the words we have spoken... Selah! Yspot!

Helping a stranger On this fateful day as we drove on the express to work, we saw a man by the road side trying so desperately to stop anyone that would care to stop. So many cars passed by without stopping and I don't blame them. There are different types of unseeming dangerous schemes that people come up with these days, you hardly know whom to trust. *** Lesson 1: It's true that people have made it difficult to lend a helping hand to those who truly need it. Nevertheless, let us not totally close our hearts to helping people. Give when asked even if the recipient is claiming to have a false ailment; he or she will reap the rewards of their actions while you on the other hand, will reap a bountiful harvest. *** As we approached him, he waved us down. We were not sure what he wanted but Grace stopped anyway. Question? Would I have stopped? How about you, would you have stopped? Lesson 2: It takes the leading of the Spirit to know the right steps to take. The ...
