Spiritual Experiences of Motherhood
My heart is grieved by the senseless killing of innocent people from all religious background in Nigeria. Many children have become orphans and women widowed in the name of religion. Every soul is precious in God’s eyes. God is not pleased with wickedness. When my heart is grieved, I pray. Prayer works. Those who say […]
It is a great day to be alive! Please take a moment (30 seconds or more) to pray for new and expecting parents you know. Pray for strength to navigate this new season. Pray that God would give them wisdom. Pray for sound mind for them, that they will have the courage to reach out […]
Pray Ephesians 1:18-19 right now. Replace “you” with “me”. I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, […]
Did you read the equality act? I read it because I like to conduct personal research instead of being programmed by the media. It takes few minutes to read it. It is interesting that bill is titled “equality act” while the bill seeks to suppress religious freedom to disagree with proposed gender ideologies. It is […]
Foxes book of Martyrs is a long but important read for this age. Amber of Fish Full Life brought this book to my attention. I glanced through it and my heart was touched by the stories of those who died for the gospel. Some died so we can easily access the Bible today. May I […]
It was impressed on my heart to share this with you all. Join me in praying. The persecution will not end, but we have victory. Matthew 5:11(NIV) ~ “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.” Please take a moment and pray. […]
We made it! This is my deepest desire and prayer for 2021: That God will fill us with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that we may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, […]
Happy Independence day to every Nigerian in this community! We have some amazing Christian Mommas community members from Nigeria. Thank you for following this blog. Nigeria is my country of birth, so I will join the Independence Day celebration. Nigeria has one of the most powerful national anthems. Check it out! Arise, O Compatriots,Nigeria’s call […]
One of our most important roles as Christian mothers is helping our children grow into functional disciples of Christ. It involves so much more than just taking them to church on Sunday. We play a critical role in our child’s discipleship process; we are also responsible for evangelizing to our children. Having daily Bible studies […]
Today, I pray that we will live long enough to enjoy the fruit of our labor of love over our children. For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. Hebrews 6:10 Have a restful […]
My heart overflowed with joy and thanksgiving after seeing this news yesterday. When my spouse called me and said “God answers prayers”, I thought he was about to tell me about money matters. Then he showed me this news, worth more to me than money. We have been praying for child abusers to be exposed […]
Some cities have begun the process of reopening schools. Many people are fearful. Prayer helps us to let go of what we can’t control and embrace the peace of God. God, we pray for a hedge of protection around students of all ages. We pray for the little kids who are too young to understand […]
Growing up, superman was one of my favorite superheroes. He had superpowers and he maximized it by protecting communities. Christians have the ultimate superpower, the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8) and this power is not just available for our personal use. The life of a Christian is not meant to be about “me, myself and I” […]
May the Favor of God Oil of gladness Unusual wisdom for exploits Rest from toil and struggles which only God provides. Thirst and Hunger for Righteousness Holy presence that delivers from evil Be with you and your household today and forever! May The Freedom we enjoy in the United States not become a snare, One […]
Few hours ago, the little one got hurt and my post for the day changed. As I consoled him and applied ice on his injury, my heart broke and I began to think of children in abusive homes. Some children no longer attend school, their place of safety away from abusive parents. Even good parents […]
Isn’t it amazing that a president can ask everyone dwelling in the land to call upon God in the time of trouble?! I pray that the Lord continues to guide president Trump’s decisions this season and always. That he will experience the love of God and receive godly counsel. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, […]
Whether the Coronavirus is overhyped or just like the influenza virus, this viral epidemic is thriving on the spirit of fear. As a Christian mother, I refuse to bow to the spirit of fear and I encourage you all to stand strong in faith. We should maintain good hygiene and enforce our authority as kingdom […]
My family had plans for a surprise snow. We planned to make a snow man, have the little one enjoy the snow, and take pictures. We also planned to stay off the grass just to avoid stepping on dog poop. Some dog owners do not pick up after their dogs. All was going well. So, […]
After signing a petition for families in the United States to receive up to 12 weeks of paid leave post-partum, I started thinking about the power to influence policies. Last year, I wrote a post about finding favor on my job to encourage mothers to trust God on their jobs. Is it possible for a […]
As we send our children back to school this new year, let’s start the school year strong with the prayer of thanksgiving (an act of prophetic confession) over our children (you may replace the word child with your child or children’s name): Heavenly father, thank you for your protection over my child. Thank you for […]
I was moved by Dawn’s blog post entitled, “I Will Give You Rest” and thought about my own child as I read her post. One of the greatest things about being a parent is watching your child grow up. That’s also one of the hardest things, particularly when the paths our kids choose don’t line […] […]
I will be honest that I did not join the military hoping to go to war. I am thankful I did not have to. Some of my “battle buddies” wanted to deploy and retire. I just wanted to serve and leave. While I left the military with physical injuries, others left with both physical and […]
Two days ago, My dear sister, kim Petitt shared her personal experience as a mother raising a Black son in the 21st Century. Please read her short post HERE. We can’t trust our governments to protect our children. They are failing every child regardless of race. While some local churches are speaking up through the […]
Feeling afraid is a natural feeling of being a new mom. We’ve all laid awake at night pondering questions like, “do I have what it takes to raise this tiny human being when I don’t have my own life figured out?” “Am I going to ruin this kid?” But soon after the birth of my […]
I have been hurt several times when I didn’t receive what I asked God for. I have had circumstances that made me say “this is too much for one person to deal with”, “why me?”, and “why did God let this happen?”.
