Key identities of a believer

Key Identities of a believer Hello everyone, thank you so much for being an avid reader of my blog. You are amazing and I pray that all your heart desires come to pass in Jesus name. The topic for today is one that has got me very excited💃💃. Being in Christ is amazing but not knowing what that means can lead to a life of frustration. It is like being in line to get on an aeroplane and getting upgraded to first class. If you don’t know the perks of being in first class, you may end up behaving like you are stuck in economy. If you don’t know that a first class passenger has access to a lounge area with delicious foods and drinks while they wait for their flight, you may end up paying a lot of money for food in a non-relaxing side of the airport. What is the benefit of getting a free gift without knowing what comes with it? No benefit at all. Let us start by answering this question. Who is a believer?   My simple definition for a believer is a person that believes in t...

How I went from being ashamed to being confident with my scars! (Part 3)

How I went from being ashamed to being confident with my scars! Oh wow, the feedback has been mind-blowing. A lot of people reached out to me and said they were moved to tears as they read my story, others said it helped them to stop complaining and become more grateful. Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement, God bless you richly. This is the finale of how I got my battle scars stories, please catch up with Part 1 and Part 2 if you have not done so already. Here it goes. After a month and half of having my flesh cleaned every two days, the surgeons finally said I was ready for skin reconstructive surgery. They explained that I will be undergoing skin graft surgery. Basically, they were going to copy skin from my thigh and paste and all my burned areas. I had two options, mesh graft or sheet graft. Because the burns on my legs were extensive, they used mesh to reduce the chances of infections. The burn on my stomach and arm were covered with sheet...

How I got my battle scars (Part 2)

How I got my battle scars (Part 2) I want to start by saying a big thank you to everyone that reached out to me after my last post on how I got my battle scars , please read my last post before reading this one . The overwhelming love and encouragement I received from everyone blew my mind. Thank you so much for it all, thank you! Like I promised, here is the part 2 of this story. Isaiah 41:10 "Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand." March 22nd, 2012. After receiving emergency treatment, I was put in a corner to be picked up by my family. My friends had reached out to my older sisters (they both lived in the UK at the time) about the accident. They were scared and did not know how to inform my parents, at last, they passed the information to my dad. My dad was out of town, so he reached out to his friend who lived around ...

Story Time: How I got my battle scars (Part 1)

Story Time: How I got my battle scars Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog. I know many of you that have seen me in real life or have seen my pictures have questions about my scars. I'd have questions too if I was in your shoes. To note, putting myself out there like this is new to me but I believe my story will bless and inspire someone. It is a story of victory, deliverance, overcoming tragedy and experiencing God’s intentional love.  Romans 8:28 (TPT) So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together to fit into God's perfect plan of bringing good into our lives, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfil his designed purpose. On the 24th of March, 2012 my life changed forever. As the secretary of the History and International Studies student association at Babcock University (2012), I was part of the planning process for the annual departmental field trip. I woke up bright and early ready to face a wonderfu...

Should a Christian make a vow?

Should a Christian make a vow? Happy New month everyone. I pray that this month of May brings about Joy, love, happiness and fulfilment in all that you do in Jesus Name. I got good feedback from my last post ( Scriptures to help you meditate on God’s unconditional love ), if you haven’t checked it out, please do.😊😊 This past Sunday, I stepped out in faith and made a pledge in church when the pastor made a call.  A few Sundays ago, the Holy Spirit has laid in my heart to replace the cymbals at church because they were broken. I put this at the back of my mind as a project to embark on eventually. So when the pastor asked us to come forward if the Holy Spirit has instructed us to do something for the house, I knew I just had to step forward. After he prayed for us, I started thinking about how easy it is for us to step forward for pledges and eventually forget to redeem them. This experience is the inspiration for this week's post. What is a vow? A vow is a solemn ...
