Many Christians have the Marriage Fever
I was praying in service one morning when two words: MARRIAGE FEVER dropped heavily in my spirit and it forced me into a statue. God was saying I had marriage fever. I left the group prayer to whip out my phone and immediately googled, "Symptoms of Fever." The result page was startling enough that I did not need to go further. God started expounding it right there and funny enough it was not targeted at only me. I felt Baba's exasperation as he scolded all my single siblings and me together. He was like, "What is it, Chioma..."

A Memorial Stone
Today, I remember those moments at different junctions when I had to make quick decisions that scared the hell out of me. I remember the thinking and fear deep into the night. I remember the tears too. But somehow I made the right one. I said somehow but I mean the Hand of the Lord. He has been guiding me safely along this way. I won’t be afraid anymore, Lord. I don relax for this back seat wey you prepare for me. Sha dey carry me go where I no know. This is me raising another memorial stone on this blue app. This is me officially documenting here that Abba,…

Mouth Weightlifting Champions Amongst Us
Even if you’re the National Mouth Weightlifting Champion or plan a future as one, why is your mouth this heavy? I came today to forcefully discourage you from this career path because it cannot take you anywhere. My dear when you see something you like, just say so. It removes nothing from you but adds everything. Make giving compliments a part of you. “Sis, I love your hair. How did you get that twist!” “Congrats on that new certificate. Oh boy, I’ll like to do the same one day.” “My brother, that shoe is it for two?” “I love that presentation you did. I have never seen it in that…

Bro Churchill, Kneel Down
Why have you sworn to dispatch God's body to the different ends of the world when you're not a delivery agent? Why can you not allow us to be one? These days, we have even forgotten your name. If not for your Church which you remind us of at every opportunity, we would not have what to call you by now...

My Dad Refused to Raise a Crybaby
One evening, I was doing my work as usual and heading to where my father was sitting when he spotted me from the middle of the room and roared. "Are you not ashamed of yourself, ehn Chioma? Your younger brother will beat you every time and you'll be crying? Will you go and beat your own back?!" Chai, My tears seized immediately as shame washed over me. The next day when the little demon found his way to my side, I bounced on him and dealt with him until he was the one doing the crying. The disrespect from his corner reduced from that day henceforth.

No Dey Form God!
Why should men be offended in Christ because of you? Who you be? Who do you think you are to control the destinies of men? Who made you a God to them? Just one word, gesture, inaction or action from you and you have influenced an entire being into a particular path...more often than not, a bad one...

Not a Valentine’s Special
While the messages of purity have gone forth long before this special day, those who want to do what they want to do will do it. I know this and I have peace. They see us as old-fashioned talkatives, people who don't know how to mind their business and are secretly pained to not have what they are "enjoying." I know this and I have peace...

A Psychopathic God Perhaps?
As a new believer, I could not help but suspect God of being a low-key psychopath. I just could not get him. I had been living life without troubles and trials blissfully ignorant of spiritual requirements or the realm then here he comes...
