Two prayer points Pastor Jerry raised at Hallelujah Challenge this morning that I prayed with everything inside my chest? These two, amongst others.
Bruh! Very strong prayers.
Seeing men & women in their 40s and above looking so fit and body banging is such a motivation. Takes a lot of discipline and healthy living but so worth it. Growing older but staying in shape is a big flex
Yesterday reminded me how blessed I am to be surrounded by so much love, kindness, and support.
Every message, call, and prayer touched my heart deeply.
As I step into this new chapter with gratitude and courage, I wish the same for you too ๐: more joy, more love, and more breakthroughs on your journey.
The best is yet to come for all of us! Thank you, and may God bless you always ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ

@crypt87600@SwagSmiith@iamFmajor @Solomon_Buchi His most important plan for me is to make heaven, thatโs why He came to die, thatโs why He said what shall it profit me if I gain the whole world and lose my soul, seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God.
Thatโs the priority as a Christian not riches
@iamFmajor@Gistloverfan @Solomon_Buchi Jesus disciples were not rich people, fishermen was not occupation of the rich. The rich people he visited was Zaccheus & Jarius. Others were poor, the house in capernaum, Mary & Martha, Peter, Andrew, Simon, the house in Emmaus after resurrection. None were recorded as rich
@SwagSmiith@iamFmajor @Solomon_Buchi Jesus said he hates sin, he even said it is difficult for a rich man to enter heaven, Jesus himself came from a poor background, most of the people he associated with were the poor and lowly in society. So I wonder where you got this idea of Jesus hating poverty
@FisayoOkew62807@Anyanwu_GE @Solomon_Buchi Apostles depended on the goodwill of the church members. Did you ever hear that the apostles had excess of anything?
@FisayoOkew62807@Africanmonk12 @Solomon_Buchi The disciples were regarded as poor in that society. They stayed in peopleโs houses, when Jesus sent them out to preach they went with nothing. Except your definition of prosperity is one cloth and one sandal and depending on people to feed you
I read a book on marriage and I will never forget a couple that came in for counseling over this submission issue. The wife didnโt like the idea of submission. The husband was withdrawing his love because the wife wasnโt submitting.
The counselor advised the man to love his wife whether she submitted or she didnโt. In fact, he should love her more when sheโs not submissive. He told the wife to just โtryโ and submit. He understands itโs hard. But she should try. They both left the counseling room with a resolution to work on these things.
A few months later, they came back to the counselor.
Counselor: How are you? Howโs your marriage?
Man: Honestly, it seemed like something changed. She simply just became a more loving and supportive partner. We are more aligned now and have not squabbled over submission in a while.
Wife: I noticed that his love for me grew bigger. Especially in times when I knew I was being annoying. Heโd draw me closer and speak kindly to me. This helped me to see that he wasnโt the mean, controlling person I thought he was.
Counselor: When did your wife become submissive?
Man: Honestly, I canโt tell. I was so busy loving her that I didnโt notice the exact moment things changed. All I knew was, I worked on being an intentional lover.
Counselor: When did your husband become a better husband?
Woman: I just noticed that after our last visit, he became more patient with me. And patience is very important to me. It is one of my ways to know I am safe and loved. Submission to him came naturally.
Man: It does not even feel like โsubmissionโ in the real sense of the word. We have just become better aligned. I listen to her more and she now talks to me with respect.
This is a truth every Christian should know. If all you want from God is material โthingsโ you donโt need Christianity for that. Prosperity is not the believers bread; the presence of God is.
This singular truth can even demolish prosperity gospel.
@iamstephenchris@Vanessa_Asueya If you stay in the UK then yes some bills can carry 2 names. The other option is to split it so you have some in husbandโs name and some in wifeโs name so both of you have evidence of utility bill payment and proof of address
@Vanessa_Asueya@iamstephenchris So if youโre looking for a job and they ask you for evidence of home address like utility bills you will have nothing to show even though you have been paying?
@Mipo_official@TheResinWorld@Chef_ranky In a country where obeying your elders is drummed into your head, and itโs worse when itโs poor girl to elderly man, she will not even think of disobeying him if he says follow me to go and collect something for somebody
@NelsJson@bigNenye@LaceVine@HRH_Ujuaku Let me explain her post to you in simpler language so you can finally understand. Get your teen girl a val gift because some of her fellow school girls have older men as boyfriends who can send them valentine gifts.
I hope you understand the tweet now
