The Most Important Lessons I Learned From My Broomstick.

The old-fashioned and archaic broom that lies unused in the corners of our houses can teach us a very important life lesson.

A broomstick used to be something that everybody, rich or poor used to have in their house here in Africa. Times are changing now sha. It’s slowly being replaced by brushes and vacuum cleaners. However, the old-fashioned and archaic broom that lies unused in the corners of our houses can teach us a very important life lesson. Pick up a broom. Observe the sticks carefully.

A Mind-blowing lesson from Jesus' healing of leprous man; He touches the leprous

Jesus feels at ease among those who have been marginalized by society. He has no hesitation about identifying with those who are struggling, spiritually blind, or sick in any aspect of their lives.

Consider how embarrassing it would be if the Queen of England was discovered befriending beggars. Imagine how it would be for the Oba of Benin or the Emir of Kano to be found in local bars with locals. Strange right? Now, imagine the King of Kings, Jesus, being found with the lowest class of people in His day. Jesus was found with those who society rejected, from fishermen to tax collectors to…

Two oustanding Lessons to Learn from the Magi's visit

Have you studied the story of the Magi's visit to Jesus? I bet you have! Here's are incredible lessons we can learn from that story!

The visit of the Magi is, in my opinion, one of the most significant events surrounding Jesus’ birth. The Magi were described as Eastern wise men. According to historians, they were astrologers who read the stars and zodiac signs.  This means that these men were not born Jews and had no relationship with Jesus. It is intriguing, however, that men who had no relationship with God were the first…

'obinigwe'; what we ought to learn from guc's song releases

‘obinigwe’; what we ought to learn from guc’s song releases

The Bible tells us that, ‘there are many vessels in a great man’s house.’ It then emphasizes vessels of honor. Gift Ugochi Christopher, also known as G U C, is a vessel of honor in the Body of Christ today, in my opinion. His songs have greatly enriched people’s lives both within and outside the borders of this country. Most importantly, they have progressed from being ordinary songs to being…

Don't be ashamed of your little beginning.

Don’t be ashamed of your little beginning.

When I was starting out as a freelance writer, I suffered greatly from discouragement arising from being underappreciated. I envied those freelance writers who were making bucks from doing what I could also do. These discouraging thoughts flooded my mind and hampered my creativity. For a long while, I found it difficult to write or do anything creative. I was desperate to be at the top, yet, I…

Here's why you must avoid Pride!

Here’s why you must avoid Pride!

If there’s one thing God hates so much, it’s pride. So many great men have fallen down the ladder of success due to this. Pride is a disease that slowly eats one up without knowing. Take Satan for example, He was once called Lucifer, one of the highest ranking angels then in God’s kingdom but then, pride set in. Isaiah 14 vs 13; For thou hast said in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven, I…

ESTHER 4:14 One of the unanswerable questions I’ve always had within myself is the question of my own existence. Why do I exist in an age that is plagued with Covid? Why do I exist in an age that is plagued with sexual immorality? Why do I exist in an age where abortion is considered a human right? Why do I exist in an age where homosexuality is celebrated? Why do I exist in an age inundated…

is the bible silent about abortion

One of the trending issues of the 21st century is abortion – the intentional termination of a pregnancy. In time past, this term was considered illegal and a taboo. Even mentioning the word used to be seen as a desecration of humanity. However, towards the ending of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the world began to experience a ‘reawakening’. A revolution similar to the…

TD Jakes: Don't follow the culture!

TD Jakes: Don’t follow the culture!

Romans 12:1 tells us not to be conformed to the ways of the world. The strength of the Church is in her uniqueness. Our victory is in the peculiarity of our faith and not in our conformity to worldly standards. We might adopt their technology. We might use their gadgets. But we must be careful not to conform to their culture. Our words must not be like theirs – ours must be seasoned with the…

Being a teacher exposes one to different flavors of people – both children and adults. Having taught in over five schools in my lifetime, I have experienced these unique characters even among my co-workers. I have seen how talented teachers fell simply because of the lack of character and self control. I almost became a victim of this years ago. I was teaching in Primary 3 class – a class I’ll…
