Before you ask God for anything… worship Him.
Saints, there is something that happens when you forget about everything around you and simply begin to worship Jesus.
Worship shifts your attention from the size of your circumstances to the greatness of your God. It quiets the noise, strengthens your faith, and draws your heart into the presence of the Lord.
There have been moments in my life when I didn’t have the words to pray—but I could worship. And in His presence, fear began to leave, burdens became lighter, and my heart was refreshed.
Don’t wait until everything is going right to worship Him. Worship Him in the waiting. Worship Him in the battle. Worship Him because He is worthy.
Take a moment right now. Forget about everything else, lift your heart to Jesus, and worship Him.
There is nothing like the presence of God. 🕊️
6 curses that affect man:
1. The curse of the ground: God never cursed man but cursed the ground (Genesis 3:17) You overcome the curse by finding grace in the eyes of the Lord (Genesis 8:21)
2. The curse of the blood is defeated by the blood of Jesus and through it, you access to everything God has in store for you (Exodus 12:13, Exodus 12:7)
3. The curse of the name: Cancer is a name, poverty is a name, blindness is a name, leukemia is a name but we overcome every situation and disease by the name Jesus that is above every other name (Philippains 2:9)
4. The curse of the territory: The power of principalities that fights you in places that you go. With fasting and prayer, you become a victor like Daniel and conquer the territorial demons and ultimately God sends you His angels to give up what belongs to you (Daniel 10:13) You overcome when you invite the Spirit of God to move over the place (Genesis 1:2)
5. The curse of sin and death (Romans 8:2): You overcome sin and death with righteousness, holiness and the anointing of God (2 Corinthians 5:21, Isaiah 10:27)
6. The curse of stagnation: It is brought by the spirit of fear (Matthew 14:29-30) and you overcome stagnation by the 7 blessings of God; power, riches, wisdom, strength, honour, glory and blessing (Revelation 5:12)

It was a great moment with ASOU President Dr Edward Kakungulu, President Elect Dr Namugenyi, National Chief Surgeon Dr Kabweru W.M, Team lead Dr Roy Anyolitho and the entire team at Mukono COU Hospital, 15th September, 2026.
John was passionately obsessed with medicine. Unlike some of us, he knew what he wanted to become very early in life. In high school, when they started dissecting frogs in Biology, he hunted for frogs everywhere like a madman. In the exercise, which I found awful, he was already seeing himself conducting operations. When he finally became a medic, his practice remained obsessive, yet always with his signature smile. He sought for knowledge endlessly, and quietly. At the time of his death he had just finished a second Masters in Romania, for which he was paying himself. And he was talking of starting another. When he was bored, he would often pull out his iPad, and it is medical stuff you would see him reading or watching off YouTube.
Whenever we were together as a family, the most annoying thing was his phone, which rang endlessly into the night - and, against all advice to rest, he always picked. They were often patients with all sorts of problems, whom he calmly responded to offering free consultation or advising them to go to hospital.
He often came to the village with medicines, because when people saw him (especially the elderly), within a short time they would start walking into our home to cry to him about their ailments. These he always treated and advised free of charge. Sometimes he ran free medical camps.
I once fundraised here for a hospital we set up in the village (Masaka/Kyotera), Padre Pio Hospital, spearheaded by Brother Joseph Zziwa. The idea was mainly to help to extend affordable quality health services to this poor area that was severely devastated by AIDS and that remains challenged in accessing such services. John was the Managing Director of the hospital. It is a baby that he spoke so fondly of, how it would grow to transform healthcare in the region - as our way of giving back to the community.
His dreams and conversations were hospitals and medical practice. Since in our family five of my siblings are into medical practice and/or administration, conversations during our family meetings would often end up in medicine. Analysis after analysis, Plans after plans!
When John would learn something new, that became his song. When he learnt laparoscopic surgery in India, he would always be watching videos of how it worked, and explaining to whoever cared to listen. With strange excitement, he would mobilise fellow doctors to teach them whatever new thing he studied, and sparing time to explain it in media - especially on @fsnakazibwe’s show.
Medicine turned John into a workaholic, conducting complicated surgeries late into the night. He would sometimes start dosing in the middle of conversation, and, when I laughed, he would tell me that he had conducted an 8 hour surgery! When you thought this was too much on him, then you would hear that he is setting up a fertility Center! And despite of all he did, he never sought for any glorification. He kept a very low profile. When you found him at his hospital, you would think he was any other worker. When he died, and all sorts of people were giving testimonies of how he treated or helped them deliver children after long struggles and failures elsewhere, many were wondering: ‘How come I didn’t get to know him!’
Whoever interacted with him would know what the country lost in John, the great hope he had created in Uganda’s medical practice, and the lives he touched. When his funeral gathered thousands of people that spoke in tears of how he meant a lot to them, even we his own close family felt like we never really knew what we had in our brother! It looked like all his non-stop patients’ phone calls were now gathered as real crying people. What he sometimes jokingly said, that “I don’t know where you will seat my people when I die” came to have meaning as we sent him off. The way he was loved by so many is a source of both pain and joy. Though he died at only 47, he left a legacy of a 100 year old. If only grief permitted us to celebrate.

KATONGA RIVER
(#Lwera Masaka Road #Uganda)
#Poem
The river roars and rages
As it breaks its banks and bridges
It floods the land and roads
And carries away the loads
The sand mining and encroachment
Have caused the wetland's torment
The balance of nature is broken
And the river's wrath is woken
The people cry and flee
As they lose their homes and property
They wonder what they have done
To anger the mighty Katonga
But the answer lies within
Their actions and their sin
They have exploited and abused
The wetland they have used
Now they face the consequence
Of their greed and negligence
They must restore and protect
The wetland they neglect
Or else the river will return
With more fury and more scorn
And wash away their hopes and dreams
In its unstoppable streams
