Struggling With Your Finances? You Aren't Alone

Hi! I have a huge confession to make. I have been struggling with my finances. You might say that is normal but I do not see bad things or terrible situations like poverty as normal. His Word says that He will supply ALL my needs according to His riches in Glory so when my needs aren't met, I get troubled. The past couple of months have been weird. I made a couple of questionable decisions. Thankfully, I have been taught to stop looking for witches and wizards after my finances but search my self FIRST. So, I looked through myself and the decisions I have made and found many failings. #Shiloh2019 messages and ministrations have been helpful. I couldn't be on ground at Canaanland, Ota(due to work) but I connected Live via Youtube, Facebook and at my Zonal Centre, Marwa, Lekki during the Prophetic event last December 2019. The First night was impactful. Bishop David Oyedepo, as if he was speaking to me, asked us to check our righteousness and standi...

#ExcerptNo2 Too Much Information

F avour scrolls up to her pinned chats to her big brother’s name and number on the App. “Bros, I am going out of Lagos to Uyo to check out a prospective suitor.” “A suitor in Uyo!” “Yes o” “Favour, are you sure?” “Yes” “When are you going? Where will you stay” Fortunately, a notification pops up her screen, giving her time to think about the question. She checks quickly to see it’s a picture and the expected Invitation Card from Patrick. Ah!  I can send this to Friday, my big brother.  She thought, quickly forwarding a copy. She also sends a copy to the office printer for her records and application. “I will fly in and out. The event is in one day” She finally responds. “Marriage is not a joke o. I hope you have prayed about it.” “I have prayed and I am still praying about it” “Okay.” The leave application is ready and on her Boss’ table the next day. “Favour” Boss calls. He looks at the invitation and her face. Boss must be thinking...

Too Much Information #NewBook

Hi, I am working on my new book . Please see an excerpt below. Thank you!! Jenny First time she is flying and it is to see a man. I never thought I would but here I am. Favour thought out loud. Desperation does people in. Lol. Thankfully, she chose the safest and newest airline in Nigeria. Safest, because, well, there has been no record of accidents and the airline has raving reviews on social media. Her boss is yet to approve her leave so she added that 2-day leave; Friday and Monday request to her mental prayer request list. “Where in Uyo are you going to?” Boss asked. “Abak” “Abak”? “Yes Sir” “To do what?” I am going to represent my family at a burial. A family friend is burying his mother” “Hmmm. Submit your official request “ “Okay sir, thank you.” She went back to her seat. It had been another busy, yet fulfiling day. Favour scrolled through her Whatsapp to ask Patrick for IV. she needs an invitation to process her leave application. Sh...

Short Story - The Footbridge

We were close to the pedestrian bridge when I saw them. 3 boys on the footbridge. It looked like they were in some kind of fight; 2 against one. Even more terrifying; no street light from the bus stop we came from to the next 3 bus stops. The last time I was robbed at the next bus stop at 6am flashed before my eyes. Picture from Google So, if you avoid them by running at this bus stop, how would you avoid them at the next bus stop, my conscience asked me. On we walked till we got close to the bridge and they noticed us. One of the boys started walking down. I eagerly pointed them out to my partner. “We need to go back” “Why?” he asked. “It is 3am and those boys on the bridge are coming down to meet us” “I don’t think so”. This fearless man answered. “Let me find a stick”. He started looking around him for a stick. I saw the second boy walk to the other end of the bridge and I turned back without waiting for my partner. “Wait now”. He called after me. “They c...
