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

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 ...

Nigeria In The Bible

As we approach another celebration of the independence of the nation Nigeria, I will like us to know some things about this nation that the LORD has shown me. If a man wants to know the details of God's will for his life, he would need to read the things that have been written or said about him by God. Prophecy is one of the ways that the will of God can be known. Prophecy is voicing God's will. This same principle applies to territories as territories also have a will established by God for them to fulfill. In the scriptures, we see details of many nations that existed in that time. Nations like Israel, Egypt, Syria, Edom, Philistine, Babylon and in the new testament, we saw countries like Italy and Spain which still exists till today. Most of the nations that were mentioned in the old testament bear a new name today. There were some nations mentioned in the old testament, but their names were not specified. God, through the prophets spoke about the destiny of some na...

EndSARS: Prophetic Intelligence

  Some moments ago, the LORD reminded me of the things He shared with me during the protests. As usual, when I hear of an event in Nigeria or on the global scene, I would go to God for prophetic intelligence. I have always shared how that prophetic (spiritual) intelligence is the highest form of reality. When we seek God's counsel about an issue in our life, family or work, we are seeking prophetic intelligence. If we seek it for different issues in our life, how much more would it be of greater premium when we seek it for happenings in our nation. The ENdSARS protests started without any prior notice. There was no signal to it in the physical and it gathered momentum within days so much that many were surprised that Nigerians could stand up for their right. As the protests were going on, I went to God to find out His thoughts about the protests. In following God in the last days, many have missed the trail because they arrange things based on the knowledge of good and evil. We...
