RSVP "répondez, s'il vous plaît"

I sat in the Doctors office
listening to him explain medical jargon
He looked at me and said "I am afraid
 its not good news
from my knowledge and experience
I know the outcome isn't good"...

As I made the 2 hour long journey back home
my mind raced,thoughts piled in
there and then I asked myself
WHO AM I GOING TO BE IN ALL OF THIS
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO.

I had to make a decision and I had to act on it
I got home and first thing I did was get on you tube
you tube??? lol stay with me
I searched for Nigerian praise(WAZOBIA  Gospel praise)
and that was it..
THE BATTLE LINE WAS DRAWN
I had to respond to the enemy and let
him know my stand
As I lifted my hands in praise and danced
through the tears that streamed down my eyes
I knew heavens host were being assembled
I wasn't going to loose
like psalm 149:6 (Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hand)


And as I responded to the doctors report
with crazy praise and worship
I knew I had already won even before the 
battle began...
I did not know what lied ahead
or how the days ahead of me were going to pan out
but what I did at that moment was important
The situation had spoken...and I responded in praise and worship
The situation listed all the odds and facts against me..But as I praised and worshiped
I told my situation who I was and who I served. A LIVING GOD

Did I cry...yes I did
Did I panic..yes I did
but I was going to have the final say
not my situation,not the doctors,not nobody..


It is time to respond to that challenge,negative report,
difficult situation..whatever it is you are going through..
You have an option to praise or stay silent 
to fear or have faith
to believe the ordinary or believe the supernatural

Choose....
Don't keep quite
Talk back to the enemy
Respond.

True. We get what we say. A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth. Prov 12:14.

Praises bring the heavens down...
We praise even ahead of our victory..

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?

Before the novelty of the new year wears off Let me take time to welcome you to 2015 and wish you a great year.. I so love a new year,it is a constant reminder of the Kind of God we serve.. who gives us another opportunity To start again,dream again,run again..regardless of what May or may not have happened in the past year.. Permit me to take a slow ride down memory lane as I look back at the highlight of my year 2014... I must look back so that I can appreciate  from whence God has brought me and where he is taking me to. I must look back lest I take for granted all he has done for me. I must look back so when the enemy comes to lie to me that God hasn't been good I can count my blessings and make My boast in the Lord. 2years ago after the loss of my daughter I found out that there was a 50/50 chance that the next child I conceived  was also going to die. I remember the consultant looking at I and my husband with a very sad face as he told ...

THANKSGIVING..

I have never had to struggle for want of what to write but I have literally spent the past minutes just staring at my screen.... where do I start from is the issue at hand How do I compress the faithfulness of GOD to me in just a post...hmmmm.. I turn 28 today..yet it seems I have been here longer.. I marvel at the quality and the richness of my life.. The wealth of experience and all that God has invested in me... For all his many blessings,For his favour and his Presence  Lord for all these and more..I say thank you I woke up today with gratitude,with a heart full of praise...God has been Good to me.. I take a walk down memory lane and I go back 15 years  to a time when I first accepted Jesus. What I am most grateful for is this decision I made to follow hard after JESUS A lot of times I failed Him,strayed away,messed up,blew my chances But His mercy never ceased and  I kept seeking and running after him.. I have come a long way 15 years later,I still l...

She would have been 6 today

She would have been 6 today.... I can only imagine... The feeling I felt when I held her for the 1st time... My first born child,Very surreal I couldn’t believe such a beautiful gift had been given to me. Little did I know that this gift would change my life, our lives forever. She would have been 6 today... As I look back on all that has happened this past 6years My heart is truly full of gratitude. That God chose to enrich our lives with this child That God chose to trust us with this experience I would never have thought in my wildest dreams as I shared the news of my pregnancy with my dear husband that summer of 2011, that months after her birth we would be confronted with news that our precious perfect gift from God had an incurable Genetic condition and that she was going to die. How do you process that... How do you get on your knees and trust God through that How do you still love and serve God in spite of this... How do you deal with the questions,rage,pain,h...
