Month: July 2025

Good day, good people! This is the day that the Lord has made; never forget that. Regardless of what you face in the morning, afternoon, or evening, this day is a gift to you and me, so let’s cherish it.

How many times have we found ourselves in situations where we wished we could snap our fingers and change the situation? Some of us can even lose count of them. And how many times have we asked God to turn things around, especially in situations we created ourselves? We live in a time when we don’t want to face the consequences, and that is not how God operates. The Bible says, “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” (Galatians 6:7) So we have to experience every season presented to us, but in going through that season, we can rest assured that God is with us all the way.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (BSB): “To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.”

Imagine if the Israelites were going through the wilderness and God was not with them. Do you think they would have survived those 40 years? Amidst their rebellion and lack of faith in God, He remained faithful. He was with them. I know that sometimes we find ourselves in situations where it seems like God is not there, but rest assured, “For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize with and understand our weaknesses and temptations…”

So let’s take time in our difficult situations to say, “God, we thank You for being with us.” We don’t know what would have happened if we were alone in these situations. Fear could have overcome us, but You have not allowed it. And let us always know that, just because You are not changing our dry season to a wet season, it doesn’t mean You don’t sympathize with or hear us. Your Word says, “Even before they call, I will answer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear.” (Isaiah 65:24)

Takeaway: What season of life are you experiencing?

Prayer: Abba, Father, we thank you in Jesus’ name. Ameni!

Good day, good people! This is the day that the Lord has made; never forget that. Regardless of what you face in the morning, afternoon, or evening, this day is a gift to you and me, so let’s cherish it.

Life is a war, or should I say it is full of battles, and whether you like it or not, you will have to engage. And just because we are not carrying guns to fight this one, some people have decided to camp on a battleground, especially when the battle doesn’t look life-threatening. We have to fight, whether we lose or win the battle. But thanks be to God, who is a God of war.

Exodus 14:14 (ESV): The LORD will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.

Yes, Moses was speaking with Israel, but surely God has fought for you in the past six months. There are things that could have taken us for a spin and thrown us into a place of no return, but God was there. Unless you are waiting to see him in action, then you won’t thank him. But for us who know that the God of Israel doesn’t sleep nor slumber. We can’t wait to see him in action, but we will always say, Thank you, God, for fighting for me.

I told you He is a God of war, so He knows more about life’s battles than we do. Therefore, keep silent (put your faith in Him) and let your gratitude make noise.

Takeaway: How difficult is it for you to rest in God’s sovereignty and provision?

Prayer: Abba, Father, we thank you in Jesus’ name. Ameni!

Good day, good people! This is the day that the Lord has made; never forget that. Regardless of what you face in the morning, afternoon, or evening, this day is a gift to you and me, so let’s cherish it.

First and foremost, let me extend a warm welcome to the month of July. Whether we agree or not, we are all pursuing something. As human beings, we must nourish ourselves, whether spiritually or physically. Additionally, one thing we must recognize is that our souls yearn, and sometimes we nourish them unknowingly because we hesitate to acknowledge our souls’ thirst. Today, I bring a wake-up call to remind you that you have the choice to decide what to feed your soul.

Hosea 12:1 (NLT): “The people of Israel feed on the wind; they chase after the east wind all day long. They pile up lies and violence; they are making an alliance with Assyria while sending olive oil to buy support from Egypt.”

Wind cannot sustain us. There are things that, as good as they are, cannot bring long-lasting satisfaction, but we often buy into their short-term gratification. I told you the choice is yours; you can chase the east wind as much as you want or can, but be cautious of what you are seeking. What you will find in the east wind is destruction.

What are we piling up? For lies breed violence, and that’s one of the truths we run away from. Violence doesn’t have to be physical, and only then will we realize that our lies cause violence.

Takeaway: If all that we are doing is in vain, why are we still doing it?

Prayer: Abba, Father, we thank you in Jesus’ name. Ameni!
