Look for the treasure

The bible describes a treasure in an earthen vessel.

It says that the excellency may be of God and not of us.

If you are born again, the Holy Spirit is alive in you.

You might not be conscious of Him. You might think that you were created to attend church twice a week and smile and make nice, but no, you were made to discover that you are just like God (not lip service).

You were made (John 3:3) to discover your identity in Christ and then from that day live from that place. The place of knowing that you are a son/daughter of God because you chose to make Jesus Lord.

You must discover the treasure in you. you must seek to know of a certainty that the Spirit of God lives in you however many dissenting voices you may hear.

Truth is that is 1 million assenting voices tell you that the Lord almighty in the person of the Holy Ghost lives in you, until you believe it, it would make no difference to you or to the way you live.

Same way if a million or 100 million people told you that the Spirit of God does not live in you, the moment you have experienced relationship with the Holy Ghost and known His goodness and favour and glory, no one can convince you otherwise.

Writing my heart...

I hate to write when I am hurt
because I expose too much

I am an expressive writer
Very
A description on too
I wear my heart on my sleeve
and refuse to live a life that is less

Choosing less
eventually means that you are unwilling
to give life your all
To live to the fullest
and get out of it all that God has planned for you

I ask why there is so much wickedness on the earth and
God says nothing
other than, "I am with you"

Saddest thing is I still feel His presence
So I know He didn't vacate the throne for anyone
I am at fault
I am the one who didn't hear well
because I was busy trying to please he who cannot
or will not be pleased.

I feel deep compassion for those who do not know how to love
who are so deeply wounded that they must control others to feel okay
I feel sad that a relationship with the Holy Spirit is not an option

All that is on the plate is feeling in control
even when you are not.

To take another's life is not something man was made to enjoy
you have to be deeply troubled to see taking another's life as a solution
any solution

One of my earliest pastors says the sons of Eli and Samuel were the way they were
because...

I have been listening to inspired music
and from time to time I cry from man's depravity
wondering how it will be explained.

I choose to be God's daughter
Still.

In spite of who will not live kingdom
I choose to live according to God's kingdom and the principles of King Jesus
There is no other way to live
Kuku be a sinner than to be posing in church and living the world system

I have prayed
I have asked the Lord to revenge because I can't
I still pray
I trust less

God keeps His word
Even when men can, they break their word
because their flesh still rules
where God should

You see, God forces no one to submit to Him
He still wants willingness
So its not coerced but true love

In other times I would have titled this post "A case for true love" but then I am not really in the mood but I choose to exercise and express faith because God still gives me those choices

Good Father
I truly love You
You didn't tell me how dark the earth would be else I would have agreed to surrender and kuku go
But since you give me chance again and again that cause people to strive and to scatter and to broil and to express amazing lengths of fleshy behaviour (rotten fruits) I choose too stay longer than most and express you to the fullest.

As much as you want to express I yield myself to You Spirit, soul and body. I wanted to say I promise to be wiser but that is a promise I cannot keep so I say, Lord, teach me to be wiser, Holy Spirit help me to soar. Lead me beside still waters, cause me to rise up with wings as eagles. Use me to end the reign of wolves. Guide me like you guarded Daniel and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Me and mine, bring us up to speed. Expand us on the inside enough to receive what you have for us, keep us from the evil in this world.

Give us the wisdom Jesus used in defeating the Sadducees and Pharisees. Give us the invincibility of John the divine. Use us for your glory. It may be a difficult life but it will also be a glorious one. Open our eyes to see our enemies early so we don't believe the lies they speak. Guide us into all truth at all times and teach us to love more in Jesus name, amen.

"A case for love"

A few good men...

God is so faithful
I don't know why He is so good to me

He continues to be good all the time
He blesses me continually in spite of my many adversaries
I don't know how I keep getting them

Love this dress!

It's just me
I know how to gather enemies

Thank God for the friends that God put in my life
Faithful friends not because I am too special but because He's just good.

Daddy God, I am thankful

Just read it
The word hurts

It is a tragedy to discover too late that the father whom 
I thought was not perfect is more loyal than many who would claim to be faithful.

Loyalty and faithfulness,
Easy to claim but hard to show.

What is that thing that the writing classes always say "show, don't tell"
Everywhere I turn, I hear loyalty, loyalty
I have been hearing it for years now but I have not seen it

Loyalty is painful and few men/women have the stomach for it.
It is rare, just like honour and my father had it.
I wish I could have told him. 

This world can drain you of all the love inside you
if you are not depending on the love of God that has
been shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Ghost.

I have just one advice today:

If you see any human being that tells you trust me, and they have flesh and blood
Just run.

The man who trust in the arm of flesh...
na you know

When anyone does you good, they are under the influence of the Holy Spirit
When any man does you evil, they are under the influence of the flesh/devil

You can determine to stay under the influence of God.

If you trust in man, you would just go crazy and they would laugh behind their hands while giving platitudes "yes, we got her".

Why?

You know you have to keep up appearances.
Huummmph!

I know a couple of people who loved to keep up appearances in the bible
The LORD wasn't pleased with them
He prefers authenticity

Authenticity is scarce
But I can't even imagine myself being fake

The best I can do is to be discreet

I pray for God's grace for the church without His grace or his reign over all things
There would be no hope

But hallelujah, He reigns over all things
He is sovereign
That is a reason to rejoice

Have you seen the funniest thing today, check out this Obama video. I think that he has been amazing as an American president and totally cool!

Obama was really funny
I saw him and wondered what it would be like if I was funny like him
I am funny like Me sha.

Enjoy!

What is the most important thing about writing?

Today? Great internet
I have had bad network all day and just look funny to having a long night today
Tomorrow is all-night and God has made everything available for me to be there
So I have no excuses
Need to go home and sleep, I am going to have a long weekend.

Laugh

It is an opportunity to do your work and also do ministry

It will have challenges

But wrapped inside challenges are opportunities to do what God has called you to do

Take advantage

Use this opportunity right

How to know that you wrote something good? #Writing

How I love to write

when do I write my best

I write my best, most authentic stuff when I have been pushed to the wall

I write terrific stuff when I am angry at some injustice

When I want to change culture

When I want to raise awareness for something that would change another's life.

How do I write my worst?

I write my worst when I am compelled to write

Or when I am just putting in my quota

The good and the bad thing about being an artist is that my emotions will sometimes control the kind of writing that I do.

Sometimes the emotion will work for me and sometimes it will work against me

What is the best way to write a good article or good story?

You need to keep writing until you feel the energy in your writing, till the dialogue gets the blood pumping in your veins and you can't wait to finish the books because the words have captured your imagination.

So much that when you are sleeping at night, you can still remember the words that you read in the book.

That's good writing.

Where you should be aspiring to

Where I should be aspiring to

LITTLE TIPS

After you have gone through all these writing stages, know that what you have is a draft

1. Now you must organise
2. Edit
3. Edit again
4. Check for grammatical errors
5. Have an editor read through because no matter how good you are, there are some things you will miss.

Cheers

NB

Try to write something everyday even if it is just a letter.
