THE GREAT MULTITUDE
I have read and heard Ever so often Of a great multitude Of kings and priests Praising together In honor of The One they call The King of kings I have read and heard Ever so often The beautiful voices of the congregation Coming together In worship of The One they know to be Worthy of it all I have read and seen Ever so often Those whom You have called Sealed with Your Holy Ghost Pouring their hearts out On pen and paper In adoration of The One Who fill

AND SO WE TARRIED…
Wait - To tarry, to await, to long for A. THE AMBASSADORS OF OUR FAITH The story of Abraham and Sarah is by no means a new one. Abraham and his wife Sarah are often referred to as the ambassadors of our faith. This was, however not always the case. Especially not for Sarah. At one point in the Bible, Sarah believes the promise God makes to her husband when He calls him out of his father’s house to an unknown land. She believes that The Lord will establish them in the promised land. She does

FAITH THAT WALKS WITH GOD
“By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.” Hebrews 11:5 KJV A. In the spirit of honesty… The first time I was led to write about Enoch, I wasn’t too sure what I would write about - but I went with it. Almost like clockwork, every sermon and Bible plan I came across mentioned him. My Pastor also mentioned that he read his book - so I did as wel

HOW I WOULD LIKE TO BE REMEMBERED
I recently beheld a vision Of my last days here on earth And thought to myself, how beautiful it will be To stand next to my Omega - my End And look back to my Alpha - my Beginning; How He started a good work in me And was faithful to see it to its end Even as He begins an even greater work in me - Eternity with Him. I considered, how beautiful it will be To look upon my days In the universe He made How I, for a short while, groped in darkness Unaware that my life was meticulously pr

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE BORN AGAIN
A little over a while ago, my Pastor mentioned that we need to redefine with clarity, what it means to be born again. I for one was intrigued by this statement - mostly because I have identified as born again for as long as I can remember. However, just like most words spoken in the realm of God, unless the speaker carries the revelation of what it means to be born again, the statement carries barely any weight. While I constantly said I was born again, I could never for the life of me explai

FAITH AS A WORTHY SACRIFICE (HEBREWS 11:4)
“By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he was commended as righteous, God commending him by accepting his gifts. And through his faith, though he died, he still speaks.” Hebrews 11:4 ESV A. OFFERTORY, TITHE, AND OTHER FORMS OF GIVING Perhaps one of the most deeply engrained cultures in the body of Christ is giving, especially of offertory and tithe. It is so frequent that it has slowly become a routine, so much so that we often remember that

FAITH AS A WORD (1)
A. My most recent musings I recently was considering the story of Paul (the Apostle) when he, along with plenty other people were shipwrecked. During this ordeal, an Angel of The LORD appeared to him, letting him know that neither him nor anyone onboard would lose their life. None of them did. This got me wondering if perhaps, we never would have experienced the tragedy of the Titanic if there had been one man on that ship who had (and actively walked in the awareness of) a Covenant of long li

WHAT DO YOU SEE?
PART 1: THE WILDERNESS I look up, and see a girl doubled over on the ground. Her knees are scruffed up, bruised from what appears to have been multiple falls. Her face is dry from tears, and her eyes are bloodshot. In her ears is the loud ringing of a battle cry - a shrill, desperate sound that speaks of loss, death, deep, tangible darkness. Every once in a while, a deep, guttural sound comes from within her - her voice is hoarse from crying. The blood in her veins hums with deep, dark and po

Part A: Context A little over a while ago, I mentioned my plant, Bethel and the notion of a green thumb. (RIP Bethel - 🌚🥲) I have been fascinated by the term green thumb since the day I learnt of it. A green thumb is a person with a natural talent for growing plants. Their talent is in great part supplemented by their love for gardening. Really, only love can sustain the work that goes into gardening. 😂 Apparently, plants die when they feel unloved. (Bethel kyewankola🙂↔️) Part B : The
