Suicide Is Not An Option

One of my spiritual father in the Lord was sharing a testimony of how he lost a whopping sum of £50,000 in 1992. He decided to take a walk and as he was walking he was praying to God. Walking on the road along River Thames bridge was a very good idea so he made his way there and along the way he had the devil speak clearly to him to jump into the river. He said, that the devil was telling him after all these years what do you have to show for and you say you are serving God……..hmmmm. Is it not the same thing most of us hear whenever we face trials, disappointments, betrayal and unfavorable situations? Well I want to let you know that you don’t have to give up trusting on God because I believe those situations are just bus stops in your life that brings you back to reality check in knowing who your true friends are and better ways to continue on your journey. As I was going through the Scriptures

Psalm 37, I came to verses 23 that says,
“The Lord directs the steps of the godly.
He delights in every detail of their lives.
24) Though they stumble, they will never fall,
for the Lord holds them by the hand.
28) For the Lord loves justice, and he will never abandon the godly.” (NLT Version)

I want to ask you, if he the Pastor had committed suicide by jumping into the river would he had shared the testimony and would he have affected lives positively including mine as well? Aaahaaa! Got you there!!!! I just want to let you know that as long as there’s life there must be challenges and that does not mean the end of the world rather the challenges brings out the best in you and tomorrow you shall be counseling or directing another person who may be going through the same road that you went through in life. God always and shall keep directing those who have made Him the anchor of their lives. Don’t get too busy for God or call Him only when you are in trouble, He wants to be responsible for your life as long as you trust Him and don’t fret. Looking at the above Scripture verse 23, you will agree with me that no matter the challenge you are going through God is with you.

Check out Psalm 23
vs 4 which says, “
Even when I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will not be afraid,
for You (God) are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
protect and comfort me.” (NLT Version)

I want to believe that 100% of all that have succeeded in life today have come to the point of giving up or quitting yet they never did. That’s the difference between success and failure. I want to challenge you today that no matter what that problem is God is capable of pulling you out of them all. He (God) did it for my beloved Pastor so shall He do so for you as you keep trusting Him. Even though you feel that nobody loves you, I want to let you know that two people still loves you; Jesus and I and I bet you you Jesus loves you most. You don’t have to take your life because you are as important as the President or Prime minister of your country or the greatest man of God you hear on the television. Email me so we can pray together and I tell you that same God who has seen me through will bring you out stronger and gracefully in Jesus name….Amen!

A Poem To The Holy Spirit

          My Best Friend, my companion, my Guide. The love I have for you is indescribable For you mean so much to me that without you I am no being You are my light, the centre of my life. Without You things fall apart. You have in my lifetime taught me a lot To love, talk, dress, ask, plait hair, look good ,appreciate myself, treat people well, read, think, desire, dream, pray, fast, tithe, give offerings and good gifts. If I go on about all you have taught me I will not finish. You remember all those words of wisdom by prophets you tell me to hold unto and for years after you keep reminding me to pray them. Those times when I will forsake you and feel I can do it on my own and when I get stuck you pick me right up and show me what to do Those nights I will cry and you will comfort me and tell me it is only a test it will not last too long, it will not kill me but it will build me and make me a better pe...

EXCEL AGAINST ALL ODDS Are you are pastor or a leader in any organisation, beloved I want you to know that God has called you to excel against all odds. Let's look into the life of one of the greatest figures in the Old Testament, Moses. The situation surrounding him when his mother gave birth to him was a death sentence from Pharaoh to kill all male children. To some of you out there it may be that your biological father told your mother to abort you when you were still in the womb, to some it may be that your mother had you when she was 15yrs old and she abandoned you at the doorstep of your foster parents or you may have gone through one abuse or the other as a child just like Jephthah in the Book of Judges 11 whose mother was a prostitute. I want you to know that God has a plan for you that is why you are still alive today. You are not an accident in this world neither shall the Lord allow you to fail as long as you don't give up on God for He won't give up on ...
