Intercessors

-

Hi, a beautiful day it is, yeah?

Welcome to November.

How are things coming along?

Indulge me a bit as today's message comes.



Have you ever bargained with traders at the market? How did that feel? Especially when you felt you were about to be exploited. Now imagine bargaining with God?

The funny thing is, we do this skillfully.


I love the man Abraham because of how he went ahead to transact with God over Sodom and Gomorrah. He went on from 50 to 10 with soft speech.

Have you ever wondered why he stopped at 10? 

For me, I believe that's because he expected Lot to have raised at least 10 accountable people who God can count on.

Sadly, that wasn't so.


We move on in our day-to-day lives not caring about other people. We all are guilty of this.


But for whom can we intercede? Whose lives can you hold the hands of God for?

Don't you think the celebration in Heaven would be more beautiful if they tagged along?

Remember that God only gives what we ask for.

Go ahead and ask him for people and nations. His ears aren't too short or neither is he deaf.

Song Suggestion: Phil Wickham's The House of the Lord.


Loads of love,

Faith, for the Royal Rubies.

    A reminder that the more i interceed, the more selfless I am and all the more loving I am towards my neighbour.

    To crown it all, the Spirit makes intercessions on my behalf.

3, 2, 1. . . Blast off ! Welcome to the second half of 2020. Forgive my delay in reaching out. However, I trust you've been in good health. When the wait lengthens, When all you feel is regression, I hope you remember Him who makes the wait remarkable. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This period has been filled with unforeseen delays. Several weddings and events were postponed. Some organizations took to the social web in order to keep relevant. Kudos to them. Church halls reverberated with long silence. Classrooms weren't left out as they piled up cobwebs. Oh my, libraries were also deserted. Recreational parks hungered for some merriment. Cinema houses suffered abandonment. Alas, many homes now have steady occupants. During this period, some took out time to develop themselves. Others were not afforded such an initiative. Then we realized that in spite of the events (and what we made of them), time still marched on. Even while we wa

Growing Up: A Scam

Hiya! A pleasant day it is, ain't it? How has it been at your end? I hope you still remember to smile and cut yourself some slack? Today's topic resonates with many of us. Very recently, I clocked a year. Prior to this, I'd always believed growing up to be a scam. I'm glad to point out that this is quietly changing. Nonetheless, that doesn't excuse society for making demands of me before I was prepared. I was told to go to school and gain an education. All glory to God, I passed through the primary, secondary and the so-much talked about tertiary institution. Along the way, I was told when I grow up, the jigsaw puzzle would somehow fit. Well, I have no words for this. Maybe 'cause I'm still growing. All I have is a certain level of distrust against the system. Reasonably, I'm discovering that growing up is an opportunity to become relevant and make an impact in the scheme of things . We were such in a haste to grow up and we had no inkling that we were,

Knowledge

A pleasant afternoon to you. How do you do? On today's post, knowledge is said to be appealing. Here's why... Sound knowledge is a venture not everyone is willing to invest in . Knowledge, they say is power, but what are you willing to pay for its acquisition? Everyone, or rather, majority of folks love to be associated with individuals who are vast and deep versed. However, we fail to make enquiries as to how such a feat was acquired. We would rather appreciate the outcome, than emulate the means. Recently, I confided in a friend my inability to prepare 'starch', a native meal of my motherland. He did well to remind me of the wealth of knowledge embedded in Google. Shamefacedly, I promised myself to look up the recipe for the meal. Don't ask if I have looked it up. How many opportunities to accumulate knowledge have we passed up? Or just when would you realize how powerful a person with knowledge, is? The means of acquiring knowledge is a process
