Do This Before Running…

Welcome to the year 2026. I believe God that this year will be the best of your years—that you will go from strength to strength and from glory to glory. Welcome to this glorious year, and my prayer is that whatever proclamations have gone forth from the Lord concerning you and your family, and all that you do, will be made manifest for you in the year 2026 in the name of Jesus. 

It’s already 9 days into the new year, amazing how fast the year is running. Many are already...

In optics, radiance is the measure of how much light a surface releases, how strongly it shines, and how far its glow extends. It is important to state clearly that light never appears on its own. It always comes from a source. Whether it's a spark, a flame, or a star, every light has a source. The strength of the source determines the strength of the light.

John 1:4-5 says, “In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.” Light does not appe...

Exodus 34:6–7:“And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.”

“By no means clearing the guilty” — this reveals the justice and accountability nature of God. Justice is the very foundation upon which God’s throne stands. It is the heartbeat...

The first truth about forgiveness I want to speak on today is this: you must forgive yourself. This is not for everyone, but for some of us, it is absolutely necessary. We make mistakes, and we will continue to make them. Some still blame themselves for a divorce. Others carry guilt over the death of a loved one: “If only I had sent more money… if only I had given more attention…” Some parents cannot forgive themselves for the choices of their children: “If I had been more present, my daughter would not have gotten pregnant… if I had not gone...

Exodus 34:6–7 “And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin…”

Forgiveness is the very heartbeat of God. To forgive means to release someone from the debt of their wrong and to no longer hold their offense against them. It is not pretending nothing happened; it is choosing to let go of vengeance and to entrust the matter into God’s hands. Forgiveness is freedom, freedom for the one who gives it and for the one wh...

Exodus 34:6–7:“And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.”

When God revealed Himself to Moses, one of the first attributes He unveiled was His mercy. After revealing His grace, His long-suffering, His abounding love, and His overflowing goodness, the Lord...

Exodus 34:6–7 “And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.”

When God revealed Himself to Moses, He did not introduce Himself as the God of thunder or of fire, though He is both. He revealed His heart, His very essence: love and goodness. He said, “I am abounding in love.” Love is not something God does. Love is who He is. His goodness flows out of His love, and His love gives meaning to His goodness. Without love, goodness has no foundation. Without goodness...

“And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.” (Exodus 34:6)

This was not a mere description of God. It was His revealed nature. When God unveiled Himself to Moses, He began with mercy, grace, and longsuffering. That is the nature that sustains every covenant. That is the nature that preserves every marriage.

In marriage, God uses seasons of strain to unveil His nature within you. When emotions waver and faith stretches thin, He does not call you to fight or to f...

Exodus 34:6“And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.”

Grace is unmerited favor. It is the release of divine goodness where it is not deserved. It is the heart of God choosing to bless rather than condemn, to forgive rather than retaliate, to do good even when every human reason says not to. Grace is the supernatural power that enables you to bless when you are bruised, to serve when you are misunderstood, and to love when you are wounded.

A...

Exodus 34:5–8 (KJV):And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

Thank you, beloved brethren and friends, for your prayers, your support, and your faithfulness in standing with us in the work of the Lord. Many of you have wondered why I have been offline. The Lord called me into a season of deep intercession and urgent assignments that required my full attention. It was a season of hidden obedience, consecration, and prayer, a time to release the purposes of God in the Spirit. Now He has released me to continue this podcast. I return with joy, knowing that what lies ahead requires greater grace, and I covet your prayers...

“Thus says the Lord: Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it. Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk in it.” Jeremiah 6:16 (NKJV)

The Path of Life is not new. It is the old path, the ancient way walked by men and women who gave themselves wholly to God in secret and in public. It is not trendy or viral. It is built on knees, soaked in tears, sealed in private devotion. This path...

Joseph was loved, favoured, and robed in colours, not just of fabric but of destiny. He was surrounded by affection and filled with dreams. But dreams are not fulfilled by dreaming. They are fulfilled when God takes a man through the path of life. This path is straight, but it is not smooth. It is narrow and filled with fire, because glory must be refined.

God’s path for Joseph led him through betrayal, temptation, accusation, and confinement. It began in a pit. “Then they took him and cast him into a pit... and they...

“Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.” (Hebrews 12:12–13 NKJV)

There is a difference between the way and the path. The way is God's divine direction. The path is how we respond to it. Many know the way of the Lord. They’ve heard His voice. They’ve received teaching, conviction, and counsel. Yet they still choose their own path. This is not confusion. This is rebellion. It is pride. It is ego. An...

Hebrews 12:12–13 (NKJV): “Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.”

I remember taking a journey to a rural village. Google Maps said it was 45 minutes. I did all my calculations, gave it a generous one hour. But do you know how long it took? Six full hours.

Excellent car with great performance,  accurate GPS, but the problem was not the car nor the GPS. The problem was the path. The road wa...

“For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’”Isaiah 41:13

This is not a metaphor. This is not poetry. This is not some high-sounding, hyper encouragement. This is the Almighty God making a personal, practical, and prophetic declaration to you. “I will hold your right hand. I will help you.” God is not standing at a distance. He is not sending a message. He is not suggesting a solution. He is stepping in. He is reaching out. He is gripping your hand and saying, “Let’s walk through i...

The verdict was already sealed. The execution plan was underway. The gallows were prepared. Haman had secured the royal signature. The Jews were going to be slaughtered. There was no court of appeal. No political rescue in sight. Time was running out. Destruction was imminent. But one woman, Queen Esther, called for a three-day fast. No food. No water. No excuses. It was not just a fast to plan better. It was a fast to obtain favour.

She had a plan. She had influence. She had strategy. She had access to the palace. She even had a...

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee. Be not dismayed; for I am thy God. I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” — Isaiah 41:10

Strength and the help of God are inseparable. If God helps you but does not strengthen you, you will lose what you were helped to receive. You may enter the room, but you will not be able to stay in it. You may receive the calling, but you won’t have the stamina to finish it. It is impossible to keep...

We’ve talked about women with all kinds of negative requests—selfish, emotional, manipulative, and destructive. But by the grace of God, we are concluding this subject with something higher: the kind of request your husband can trust and that heaven cannot ignore.

There are two powerful kinds of requests that stand out in scripture:

We saw it in the Shunammite woman. She didn’t ask Elisha for anything...

The wife of Zebedee came to the Lord Jesus with her two sons. She came with a very serious desire, but she coded it inside a powerful worship moment. She bowed, yes. She worshipped, yes. But behind the worship was ambition. And when the worship was over, she opened her mouth and revealed what was really in her heart. She said, “Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom.” (Matthew 20:21, KJV).

She didn’t ask for impartation. She didn’t ask for transfor...

“So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth. And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people. And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.” — 1 Kings 21:8–10

What would be your first reaction if you heard that the wife of th...

Yesterday, we looked at two types of negative requests in our series on Helping Your Husband to Trust Your Request. The first was the self-centered request of Rachel who said, “Give me children, or I die” — a desperate, emotionally-driven cry rooted in envy and personal comparison. The second was the vengeful request of Herodias, who insisted on having the head of John the Baptist — not for righteousness, not for justice, but out of deep bitterness and hatred.

Today, let us balance these with two holy and godly examples of women whose requests were pure, weighty, and full of coven...

Dear Sister, help your husband trust your request. Be the kind of woman whose words are not scattered, but carry weight. When you ask, let your request be rare, reasonable, and rooted in wisdom. Let him say, “My wife hardly asks for anything, so when she does, I know it matters.” But when your requests are constant, impulsive, and filled with pressure, peace begins to disappear.

Some women don’t stop asking. From Shein to Temu, Sephora to Zalando, it’s wigs today, shoes tomorrow, lashes next week. Some have over 100 shoes an...

Complaining means expressing dissatisfaction, discomfort, or annoyance about something. At its core, it simply means you’re not happy about a situation. So, in itself, complaining is not a bad thing. It’s important to express discomfort or displeasure when necessary.

But some women complain so much, so endlessly, that their husbands have become completely used to it. He has built a thick emotional firewall, numbed to her words, because her constant barrage of complaints has made him feel like he can never do anything right. All he hears is what’s not enough, what’s not working...

I’ve seen far too many men struggle with the voices, plans, opinions, and judgments of their wives. Why? Because the women have not helped their husbands to trust their voices, planning, their opinions, or their sense of judgment. Many of such men have suffered terrible losses in business, family, investments, and ministry because of the unwise suggestions, impulsive plans, and self-motivated judgments of their wives. When a wife does not operate with sound wisdom, she becomes a stumbling block rather than a helpmeet.

Dreams have died. Families have broken. Ministries have been destroyed, not because th...

Dear precious and virtuous woman, may I remind you that everything physical about you, no matter how fine or flawless, will fade with time. Beauty may open the door, but it is your spirit that will keep the house standing. That which is spiritual will not only remain, it will grow, it will mature, and it will echo into eternity.

It was said of the virtuous woman that the heart of her husband safely trusts her. My first challenge to you, dear sister and helper, is this: can your husband trust your spiritual life? Not your cooking...

Let us speak the truth clearly. Many men did not fall because they lacked calling. They did not fail because they lacked anointing or fire. They fell because they were joined to women who could not be trusted. A man can carry the presence of God, walk in divine purpose, and be helped by angels, but if he is connected to a woman whose heart is divided or rebellious, his life and assignment can be ruined. His journey can be shortened, and his voice silenced forever.

Have you ever wondered why a man discipled by our very...

I have seen many women claim to be the Proverbs 31 woman because of her wisdom, her strength, her capacity, her business acumen, her ability to wake up in the morning and do some terrific things. Such a powerful portrait of the godly woman.  In fact, by reason of her life, this woman brought so much honor and respect to her husband that he was honored at the gate. Several women conferences have been organised around the Proverbs 31 woman. She is the ideal portrait of what every strong Christian woman wants to be.  However, we often miss the fact that th...

Luke 11:21-23 -  “When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. But when one stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.”

The ability to protect your goods, your family, your body, your marriage, your business, and your spiritual life is not guaranteed by your manhood. It is not your masculinity that keeps your house in peace. What guarantees that safety is your strength. Jesus did not say, when a man guards his own house...

1 Corinthians 9:27: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

When a man—a father—cannot keep his body under subjection, he introduces instability, strife, contention, anger, pain, shame, and death into his own family. Regardless of your status in society, position in ministry, title, or calling, failure to keep your body under is an automatic open door to the spirit of destruction in the family.

When Abram heeded the voice of Sarai to go into Haga...

Genesis 2:15: “Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to tend and keep it.”

From the very beginning, God's assignment to man was simple: tend it and keep it. The word keep in Hebrew is shamar — to guard, to watch over, to preserve. This was never about gardening or crop management. It was about spiritual responsibility. Adam was not just a farmer. He was the priest of that garden. He was placed there as a watchman. His job was to protect what God handed to him.

God never design...

When Jesus taught us to pray, He began by saying, “Our Father who art in Heaven...” (Matthew 6:9). Do you realize that we have prayed this prayer for over 2000 years and yet the location of our Father has never changed? His presence is not a mystery. He is near, He is constant, and He is available and dependable. Over 2000 years have passed since Jesus prayed that prayer, yet we still say with full confidence, “Our Father who art in Heaven.” We’ve never had to change it to say, “Our Father who is in the galaxy or in the unive...

“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man,.” — Ephesians 3:14-15

If we are ever going to see lasting change in our churches, in our nations, and in generations, we must go back to the very beginning. Before there was a tabernacle, before there were kings, before there was even a priesthood, there was a family. God’s...

Nehemiah 2:5-6 – And I said unto the king, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldest send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers’ sepulchres, that I may build it. And the king said unto me, (the queen also sitting by him,) For how long shall thy journey be? and when wilt thou return? So it pleased the king to send me; and I set him a time.

Have you ever considered the depth of concern the king had for Nehemiah? His absence was not some...

By the Spirit of God, we’ve established that one of the most powerful effects of the anointing on a person’s life is that it makes them a repairer, a rebuilder, and a restorer of desolate places. If the Spirit of God truly rests upon you, then why is it that even in your family WhatsApp group, your messages creates tension,  sowing strife, confusion, and division? You go to church the most, you pray the most, you are are quick to quote the scriptures and yet the most problematic. 

As if that is not ev...

After receiving a word from the Lord and gathering the people, the next thing Elijah did was repair the broken altar. One of the key changes that happens in a person’s life when they receive the anointing is that they become a repairer.

Isaiah 61:4 – "And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations."

You cannot carry the anointing and be a source of destruction. The anointing of Isaiah 61 raises up repairers, those who rebuild waste cities and rest...

The life of Elijah is such a blessing to me. We have explored the life of that great man of God. But to go beyond the realm of knowledge, we must pray the things we have learned of him into our lives. The things we learned are simply possibilities of what God can do with us. For the things which were written aforetime were written for our learning so that we may have hope of these possibilities in our days.

All that Elijah did on Mount Carmel started with a WORD from the Lord...
