Romans‬ ‭4‬:‭19‬-‭25‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Pray for the faith and righteousness of Abraham who believed in God and all his capabilities. Don’t let self-doubt consume you or blind you from what you believe God can do in your life. ”Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” The words “it was credited to him” were written not for him alone, but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness—for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification" (Bible.com, n.d).  Don’t let self-doubt consume you or blind you from what you believe God

Many of us may have been raised in an environment or circumstance that makes us believe we are not good enough and for some of us our experiences may have led us to believe we will not amount to anything or that we are not worthy of happiness, love or freedom. Our belief systems/mindset at times can play a significant part in blocking the things that God has already spoken over our lives. We are at times robbed from happiness/confidence when we compare ourselves/circumstances to others, when we lack self-belief, when we do not have role models/mentors to guide us and sometimes due to bad company. All these factors and many more have an impact in the way we perceive ourselves and where we think we will end up in life.   While we are physically a product of our environment, we do have have to be a prisoners of the mentality of our environment. We are capable of achieving anything we put our minds, when we align our desires with God no one can take them away from you but you. There is so

Hello Family, It has been a while since i last posted. It most definitely has been a journey of ups and downs but I am really grateful that I am still alive and striving forward. I have found it really hard to find the drive to write again. There has been many moments where I felt like this was going to be the week but nothing came into fruition. I couldn't find the words to process how I was feeling. I am someone who is a natural problem solver I thought I could figure things out all on my own. However, the more I tried to do so the more I found myself going around in circles, I was missing what was right in front of me. I was too distracted when all God wanted me to do was be still. There has been one song constantly playing over and over in my head. "Make Room" by "The Church will sing", "Elyssa Smith & Community Music". I didn't understand why I was so drawn to this song until now. God has been trying to tell me to make room for him, his be

First of all I wanted to say thank you to those that regularly tune into my blog post. It’s not easy doing what I do on a regular basis, it takes confidence and commitment which sometimes I don’t have, but I try my best to see the good in what I do for others. So I appreciate the time you spend tuning in.   The message today is "ensuring we are aligning ourselves with the right people", in other terms our "destiny helpers". People that serve a purpose in our lives. I previously spoke out this in my old post, but I think this message is so critical. Be watchful of how you move , not everyone has the right intentions for you but God assigns people to you that will push you to do better we just have to learn to receive them better. This maybe someone in your immediate circle or someone that you are meeting for the first time. It does it matter, don't let you past traumas or insecurities get the better of you. I know some people may have let you down in the past, bu

Bible and Leadership: In Matthew 20:25-28 we get an idea of leadership, "Jesus called them together and said. "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many" ( Bible.com, n.d ). When I think about this verse many things come to mind. I initially think sometimes being a leader can be daunting, you are responsible for everyone who looks to you for guidance. Making the wrong move can not only impact those that you lead but it can also impact your status as a leader. I remember reading Matthew 4:1-11, "Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The tempter came to him a

There has been many times in my life where I have envisioned myself being successful, healthy, happy and free. However, I was not willing to do what it took in order to get there, instead I limited myself. I wish I could count how many times I said "that's just how I am" or "that's just not me". This thought process had a significant hold on me, it stopped me from trying new things and it prevented me from coming out of my comfort zone. The amount of times I heard, Leke I think you would be really good at this, but never followed up on it. Instead I worried about what people would think about me, I let the fear of trying something new stop me from doing what deep down I knew I was called to do. How could I be so afraid I wondered. What really was the thing that scared me about trying something new? it took me a while to figure this out but as I journeyed on in life I have identified both my strengths and weaknesses. I have realised I feared the unknown. Isn&
