Then I watched a clip ofAbejoye( a christian drama by mount zion drama ministies) recently and saw a character quoting the scriptures while wielding the Shekere and it just struck a chord within me so I went to look for my shekere ( that was gifted to me on my last birthday) and it has definitely spiced up my worship time. In one of the videos, Pastor Tony said something about the Shekere being a weapon of war and I totally agree. When Dee was alive, he loved Shekere which is a worship program convened by Pastor Tony Rapu. You can read more about this in the blog post I did here The devil almost robbed me of my blessings and I almost fell for it. I knew with all my heart that I was communing with Him and that was all that matter. I felt discouraged and was going to stop then I remembered that being in the presence of God doesn’t have anything to do with feelings or goosebumps. I continued and like 15mins later that feeling just left me. So I decided to just worship and not make any request. So if you don’t feel like praying, do it anyway even if it means yawning through it all (most times when you persist, you will hit a gusher and the prayers just starts to flow)ĭon’t let your feelings rule you, for example some days back, I was praying and just as I started, I felt the presence of God heavily and sensed that He just wanted me to worship Him and soak in His presence. I am also using this time to create productive routines in my life.įor example I still wake up early in the morning for my Jesus time, this way I can still do it when I resume work fully.
We pray at 7pm everyday and our prayers are focused on chasing out the darkness on our knees. You can choose any one that is convenient for you. I go to TCN and we pray online for one hour as a church every morning (5am) and evening (10pm). I have been joining a lot of online prayers and like one of my wild sister will say no prayer is wasted. I am also grateful for my wild women community because they have definitely kept me “prayed up” and I am loving it. That’s why I am so grateful for this free time.
I just finished my housejob and my schedule was so crazy plus raising a baby, so my Jesus time needed a lifeline. The devil wants to distract us with mindless eating, endless social media viewing and information overload. By all means get information, I also took a course on future learn to equip myself but don’t let the information sink you.ĭon’t use all the time checking about Covid-19 and scrolling mindlessly through social media that you miss out on what the Lord is doing in this season.
Infact many have shifted their gaze and the devil is using this whole thing to distract us. Truth is that the whole world is focused on Covid-19 and if we are not careful we will shift our gaze from Jesus. Its being an holyghost party at my end, as I have been trying to just stay at His feet and glean from His presence. I was supposed to resume my new job on the 30th of April, however it was moved and I was so grateful for this because I got to stay at home with baby girl who was a little under the weather at that time. Please don’t get me wrong oh, I can’t wait for this whole Covid-19 saga to be over but this is our current reality so I am trying to make good use of the free time. How is the lockdown going? I must confess that I am kind of enjoying the break.
