Ever struggled with your faith?

 1 Timothy  6:12  Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.


Have you ever struggled with your faith?, or perhaps you're presently struggling with yours. There are times when you're trying to believe for a particular course and then it just feels nothing is changing. You've believed, prayed, confessed, prophesied and even tried walking in the reality of it, and it still seems nothing is changing. Don't lose hope or fret, this process is called "the purification of your faith". Delayed answers aren't to weaken us but strengthen us. Just as gold is purified in fire, so is faith purified in challenges. I always take a cue from the man who was at the pool of Bethesda for 38 years, such a touching story of faith I will be frank. The pool of Bethesda wasn't a place where impotent folks came to beg, it was a place where they came to receive healing. Now, there were also certain impotent folks outside begging alms, example was the man found at the temple gate called Beautiful. But the pool of Bethesda was strictly a place for healing. Now, I've always wondered "why didn't this man just leave this pool, and stay outside begging alms as some other impotent folks did", why would he wait these 38 long years and see no result? Such faith for 38 years! Well, he later would have the King of Glory visit him specially. Read the story yourself, Jesus didn't heal any other person that day at the pool except this man as the Bible records, this was a visit because of a man's faith and patience. Friend, because nothing is changing doesn't mean you're possibly doing the wrong thing, some times it's a process to get your miracle ready and loud. Fight the good fight of faith with patience and win! Do have a restful weekend ahead.

  Proverbs  16:3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Most people tell others about their plans first even before they remember to tell God". It's so true, I've found out most times people have opinions, but God never has an opinion, God has direction. People have opinions, God has direction. While speaking with a friend yesterday, she recalled how some people had tried to talk her down/out from doing something, and I felt well, people always have opinions, and like David Ologbonori, a life-coach posited, " Opinions are cheap, they are everywhere, and they can be wrong". While I thought about the fact that sometimes people tell others about their plans before God, I thought to myself "why should a man inform others about what he wants to do even before the waymaker Himself?"😏. This doesn't mean you can't talk to "destiny-helpers", or " dreams investors ", but it has to do with who you give p...

Taking the Virtual edge

Psalms  133:1 "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" 133:2 "It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;" The beauty of Christianity is in fellowship. Well, due to certain 'developments' around the globe, there's been restrictions on public gatherings, however, this should never put an embargo on fellowshipping with one another as Christians. I've often thought to myself, the internet came at the very right time, the internet is for the advantage of believers. Now, with the internet, we can reach much more people with the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. Some people, otherwise who wouldn't have come to Church physically might most definitely stumble on a Christian event online and then believe in Jesus. I heard of a lady who didn't go to Church because she was of a different religion and being afr...
