Hidden Candle


For about a month, I have not been able to write any article and I have been battling a soup of mixed feelings about it. I found myself in a junction where I wanted to write as much as I didn't want to write. It's kinda weird, but it does happen and quite often too.

Breaking away from the life that is scared of shinning is a feat that must be encouraged in every soul as we progress in the time of life. Our struggles with the deposits of God within us are mostly as a result of how much of our mind has been dedicated to ourselves.

Recently, I found out that the help I need to start writing again is locked up in how much I want the writings to be a blessing that will break whatever struggle existing out there. The struggles that is making you to cover the lighted candle may be genuine, but the solution to your struggle actually lies in allowing your light that you call little to shine.

Yesterday, I listened live to two people I have itched to meet for a while now (Pastor Poju Oyemade and Subomi Plumptre). These people do not have it altogether yet, but they are shinning and being a blessing to many others. Such wonder! Theirs is some very good company.

One thing is certain, if you don't let people know that you're available, they won't know that you are available. There are many people that you and I can help at this time. So much to do in the world today. The less you think of yourself, the less the number of your cobwebs.

For now, can you throw yourself away and focus on others? It's a sure way to miracles. Jesus is classical. I mean Philippians 2:1-5 really happened. It wasn't fiction. Writing to encourage you now has helped me to break my jinx of the dry pen.

Let your light shine. It's a candle to you, but it is a flood lamp to some and many

Can You See Islam Imploding?

Islam has taken a major stage in the world today, with many western nations trying to find their feet in the face of millions of immigrants from Islamic nations. Several European countries are losing their own culture as the Islamic wave is taking over their lands already. While in Africa, nations are embroiled in Islam related conflicts that is claiming lives in millions. In many places, Muslims have become citizens and are beginning to contest for political offices. The current mayor of London is a Muslim. Same with the current mayor of New York. Scotland already had a Muslim PM. You see, there is no issue with a Muslim becoming a political leader other than the fact that true Muslims are territorial; their religion teaches them that the religion of the ruler is the religion of the land. Is this Islamophobia? Wait. What is Islamophobia? Why should anyone be Islamophobic? Is it because terrorists are Muslims? Or because Muslims threaten to slaughter anyone who slanders their religion?...

Prophetic Perspective: Israel vs Iran

The middle east situation between Israel and Palestine is a very complex one that can be viewed from many sides. Whichever perspective you choose, there will always be an unresolved issue. It is exactly a year that Hamas, a terrorist group in Palestine, dealt the biggest blow ever to the Israeli state, killing over 1000 Jews and abducting about 251. It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty.  It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...

Seven Years In Christ- Friends

After an official meeting with executives of tacsfonOAU When I resumed for the second year in college, I saw a result of the previous year and it was 39%. I couldn't believe what I saw because it was definitely not commensurate with my efforts. I wept quite bitterly and promised God that He wouldn't see me around any of His assignments again. I just joined a subgroup in my fellowship and I expected that my results will be better because of the several testimonies that I have heard from people. As I was weeping, God directed three friends to visit the spot where I was weeping. It was a miracle that I wouldn't forget. They consoled me and encouraged me to take a step of checking the result with the coordinator of the course. Eventually, my result was changed to 62%. This is one of the many times that the Lord has used brothers and sisters around me to stabilize me and keep me in line with His purpose. The role they have played in my last 7 years cannot be written in ...
