You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4 – NKJV). I know how we interpret this scripture in 1 John 4:4, but I want to put a different spin on it. Your soul is greater...

In practicing meditation a few years ago, I had a profound experience. I went fishing with Jesus. He was jovial and fun to be around, but He was catching fish after fish, and I was not catching anything. He taught me a valuable lesson that day when I asked Him what He...

If you study the early church, you realize that they met in individual homes daily and broke bread. It occurred every time they met, and they were meeting daily. And so they were breaking bread daily. They may have met three, four times for the day, and each time they...

I love people. I love them to the point that it tears my heart apart when I see them living way below their potential; even worse, they have little interest in what that potential is, the fullness of which is still a mystery. The Lord has been educating me, not about...

On the day this article was birthed, I learnt a few things about myself. Firstly, I found myself waking up during the fourth watch of the night and could not pray or read the Bible. There was absolutely no desire. Secondly, I could hardly function at my fullest...

Today, on my 9th wedding anniversary, I share a very special nugget for daily living and spiritual transcendence with you. These are not just words, but they speak to your identity in Christ; therefore, it is not just a prayer to be said, but who you become. My body...

I have been in the church a long time, and I have learned and experienced a lot. But the most interesting era of my Christian journey started years ago when I was introduced to a paradigm I was not comfortable with; the supernatural move of God and the Prophetic. I...

Time is an interesting construct when trying to understand it in the context of reality, but when there is an attempt to use time to measure or fathom eternity, it is then that we find great difficulty. Time is created as a space in eternity, so it cannot be what we...

I have always been an observer of reality from within and without. I have recently concluded that maybe having access to absolute earthly knowledge and cultures via the World Wide Web and ease of traveling may not be as enlightening as one would think it would be back...

I have been having some conversations with my BIble study group about union with God. The possibility is spoken of by Jesus in His prayer recorded in John 17. The more I contemplate this subject, is the more insight and revelation I receive in my soul. The enemy to...

I want to talk about you. Your identity in Christ. Who you are as a human being, especially as one who believes in Jesus Christ. Outside of Christ, you are still very special with great and unlimited potential, as you can see with all that humanity has accomplished to...

I will start this conversation, but I will leave it open for you to do your own research and draw your own conclusions. I held on to this revelation for a very good while, because I was unsure of the timing of releasing it. But as I continued to observe the world, in...

The Word of God really doesn’t mince words when it comes to our identity. The knowledge of who we are in God is beyond articulation…we are literally afraid to say it because it sounds bad, so we try to develop a “safe” language where we are...

There are things that need to be established for the body of Christ (church) to come into perfection (maturity) and unity. Be mindful that unity does not speak to everyone believing the same thing, but there must be unity in diversity. I believe a misconception and...

Please read with an open mind, and keen understanding, considering prayerfully the perspective from which I write. This is not an attack on the church but an evaluation of what it is; caution perhaps, and maybe identifying some measure of correcting that we need to...

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. (Hebrews...

There is only one mention of the Lord’s Day in Scripture: “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet.” (Revelation 1:10 – KJV). Note that John said he was “in the Spirit” which...

In the last few decades, great emphasis has been placed on finding one’s divine purpose and destiny. It is a search to answer the age-old questions, Why am I here? What is the purpose of life? There must be more to it than this? This has been my personal journey...
