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.

We praise even ahead of our victory..

My Case Is Different...

Shutting my eyes I can vividly remember every time someone has tried to discourage me from launching out or dreaming big based on someone else's experience or failure... sometimes it has been said unconsciously,without even thinking... The moment you mention your intention and desires,there is always someone who is ready with an example of someone else's story... Who says I have to apply 10 times before I get a visa to a foreign country Who says I have to have a god-father before I get that dream job Who says I have to attend 5 interviews and receive 5 rejections before I get the job Who says I have to wait and wait,fall into wrong hands and then learn from my mistakes before I eventually  find my prince charming.. Who says I have to have connections to get ahead in life... My case is different... I am not a statistic...my case is different The fact that it happened to 4 or 6 people you know doesn't mean it would happen to me my case is

I AM NOT DEAD YET

I am not much of the gardening type as much as I love flowers and pot plants, It takes quite a bit of an effort for me to give the flowers and pot plants in my front yard the attention they deserve... but I must admit they add such beauty and charm to my front yard. lately I have just been too pre-occupied with all that has been happening in my life and around me to even notice that I have plants to feed and nurture.. 2 weeks ago I noticed that they had all withered and the leaves were dry,brittle and falling,especially with the summer.. I sighed in regret..if only I wasn't too consumed with myself maybe my lovely front yard would have been preserved. I gave up,maybe it was too late to salvage the situation. I might just try I said to myself and see what difference it makes.. I set out a couple of days ago to water the plants...I had just a small bowl of water.. and as I went back inside to get more water..I got distracted and never got round to fully watering the

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 love the lord r
