Your Elevation May Require Your Isolation

For the longest time now a good friend has been saying to me how she doesn't understand what she ever did to me. And over and over again I would repeat to her that there was absolutely nothing wrong between us. At first I did not seem to have the words to explain myself until recently when we happened to have a repeat of the same conversation and as i whispered to God to grant me wisdom I got to explain to her. At times in order for God to use us He will find it necessary to isolate us. At times bringing us out of the familiar into the unfamiliar. Because at times the familiar could be a distraction of where God could be taking us inoder for us to be moulded into what God has in store for us. At that moment then He has to bring us out of what may be a hindrance towards His divine purpose in our lives. When I moved from my familiar to my unfamiliar I did not understand what exactly God had for me. And for a few years I struggled to settle. In many cases I wondered if it was r...

The Holy Ghost Embrace

To my beloved the church. The Lord is saying that He is concerned about the hurting. Specifically to them that are hurting due to molestation either as children or as adults. Them that are hurting due to domestic violence. Them that are hurting due to being abandoned by those that they truly trusted. Them that are still hurting because the enemy saw their vulnability and took advantage of that. The Lord is saying that in this season He is sending a holy embrace over your life such that you have never encountered before. Such that no manner of counseling can heal. He says that He sees your hurting heart and He sees your pain and your bitterness. He sees how much you want to forget and move on but He also sees the chains that the enemy bound your spirit with such that you can not let go on no matter how much you try. He says He sees the anger and the bitterness. He sees the will to revenge and the unforgiveness. He sees how much you want to let go but no matter how much you try so...

When Church Hurts

There is always an unpleasant awareness of how much hurt comes from the church. It's an unspoken hurt. Today as i shared with a friend about this topic i echoed how church hurt is almost if not at all similar to family hurt or worse. Many of us may be experiencing or may have experienced church hurt. What makes it different is that it happens in the place where you thought safety existed. Psalm 41:9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me. If you are a regular attendee of a church, ministry, or faith group, the chances are high that at one time or another you’ve had your feelings hurt, either by a member of the congregation, or even by a Pastor, Minister or other Church leader. The feeling that immediately sets in is why? Why would those that you thought would be your "protectors" all of a sudden seem or feel some type of way about you? Why the outright jealous? Why the consistent gossip? The ma...

The Long Walk Home

29.11.2018. The day starts with God as its agenda. Surrendering all to Him as the master planner. My son school teachers are called in for an emergency meeting and the kids are to be released at midday on this particular day. As other kids decide to catch the bus back home or ask the administration/teachers to call their guardian to arrange about their pick up my son decides to first have his lunch. At this point he has a couple of options to arrange for his pick up. He can wait until when school closes on normal days. He can walk a few classes to his step sisters class who happens to be a teacher in the same school and ask that she call their dad. He can speak to his class teacher and ask that she contacts the parents. He can walk to the administration office and ask that his parents are contacted for them to arrange his pick up. And the very least of options he can walk by the bus stand and pick a bus home that will drop him right outside the house. 3:26 PM. I hear dog growls I...
