Since 2010, I've experienced promptings, encouragement as well as assistance from the Holy Spirit. The promptings led me to the word of God. This was the start of my own personal journey as I sought after the truth. God was then calling me as I sought after the truth according to His word. The truth was leading me to the decision to give my life to Him. I gave my life to God on the 28th of January 2012. Instantly, I had the desire to share with others the truth of God, that God is a God of love, truth, righteousness, holiness, mercy and justice. I couldn't keep something like this to myself in a lost and dying world, a world in a fallen state, and a world steeped in confusion concerning the view of who God is. My journey wasn't without struggle though, I realised through suffering we come to know God. To not only be humble, but to be empathic and not detached from people who are suffering. Sometime in 2012, God inspired me to become a writer just after my prayer to fulfill my purpose, the purpose of the reason of my existence. My prayer was a reflection of Isaiah 43:1-7. So I started writing essays pertaining to His word. I shared what I wrote with my family and friends. Therefore, the aspiration to help people globally, came with the realisation to give God the honour and the glory. To be part of making a difference. The inspiration to start blogging was impressed upon me to do. Through prayerful guidence, I believe God has led me to this point, which I believe is for His glory.

The Christian Journey part 2

God knows us better than we know ourselves, and sees exactly who we are. Knowing all that which is inside of us. Including the secret sins we hide from others.

The Christian Journey

Through Justification by faith we are instantly made righteous before God. Being excused from the penalty of the law. Due to his marvellous grace through Jesus Christ, we have peace with Him.

Job and his friends

The irony of Job’s friends accusing him of sin in regards to why he was so greatly afflicted, is Job wasn’t afflicted because of sin. But because he was living righteously through faith why he was being attacked by Satan, causing him to suffer for it. Due to the fact God considered him a man who hates evil, […]

Give me a heart of flesh And remove this heart of stone

Lord, my heart is harden against you. My heart is hardened in pride against you because of the evil you have allowed to fall upon me.

“I am the way, the truth and the life….”

All religions and spirituality is fundamentally the same apart from Christianity, but superficially different. They all are works based. Meaning by one’s own merits of righteousness you can obtain salvation. And the concept of the immortality of the soul. They are superficially the same due to all having the same questions, but different answers. Such as what is truth? What is the moral ethics and […]

The great controversy between good and evil, and spiritual warfare

The devil allows those to live ignorantly comfortable in bliss. Completely unaware regarding of the great controversy between good and evil, and spiritual warfare what wars against them. Hence, why God has to take away the spiritual lathargy/comfortability to get our attention. Some will suffer just for living righteously by faith. God’s people are mostly […]

Lord help me, please help me

I have no peace. No matter where I go. I’m desperate for relief. To finally get some air to breathe. When will this pain ever cease? Drowning in misery. Painfully suffocating, gasping for air. About to be swallowed up in despair. I don’t know what I can say to God for Him to reach down and pull me out. I […]

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Why have you not heard my cries, and answered my prayers? Why are you so far from saving me? I have tried to draw near to you. But it is like you are not drawing nearer to me. You seem so far and so distant from me. I find no comfort in your word. And […]
