THE MIRACLE YOU MUST WALK AWAY FROM PART 2 — THE MIRACLE THAT CHANGED NOTHING… YET

Image
THE MIRACLE YOU MUST WALK AWAY FROM PART 2 — THE MIRACLE THAT CHANGED NOTHING… YET Luke 5:6–7 “And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.”  When Blessing Is Not the Final Destination In Part 1, we learned that empty seasons do not always mean failure. Peter and his companions toiled all night and caught nothing, yet that same moment of frustration became the setting for a divine encounter. We discovered that: God often visits people in seasons of exhaustion. Empty nets can prepare us for dependence on God. And one act of obedience can change everything. Peter’s failure was not the end — it was preparation for revelation. After a whole night of failure, the miracle finally came. The nets that were once empty suddenly became full. The boats that carried disappointment suddenly carried abundance. This was the biggest catch of Peter’s life. Yet something shocking happened: The miracle changed their condition temporarily, but it was not ...

DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 4: WALK AND NOT FAINT – HOW TO KEEP GOING WHEN THE PACE IS SLOW BUT THE JOURNEY IS LONG.

DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 4: WALK AND NOT FAINT – HOW TO KEEP GOING WHEN THE PACE IS SLOW BUT THE JOURNEY IS LONG. Isaiah 40:31c “ …they shall walk and not faint.” Recap of Part 3 Last time, we explored how waiting on God lifts us to higher perspectives, like an eagle rising above storms. We learned that His waiting room isn’t about idleness, but about gaining the vision and strength to rise above life’s challenges without being dragged down by them. There’s something about walking that doesn’t grab as much attention as running or flying. When we talk about “ mounting up with wings like eagles, ” people imagine soaring above problems. When we talk about “ running and not being weary, ” people imagine charging through life with unstoppable momentum. But “ walking and not fainting ”? That’s the slow, steady, sometimes boring part of the journey. And yet, it’s often here — in the slow, unnoticed, everyday steps — that most people waste their waiting. In life, you won’t always be ...

DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 3: MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES — RISING ABOVE THE STORM 🦅

Image
DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 3: MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES — RISING ABOVE THE STORM 🦅 Isaiah 40:31 “ …they shall run and not be weary…”  Recap of Part 2 In Part 2, we discovered the power of mounting up with wings like eagles — rising above life’s storms instead of being crushed by them. We learned that in waiting, God calls us to soar, not sulk. When I hear “ run and not be weary ,” my first thought is of athletes. If you’ve ever watched a marathon, you’ll see that it’s not about who starts fastest, but who can sustain the pace. Spiritually, God is calling us to the same stamina — running the race He’s marked out for us without collapsing halfway. This is not just about physical energy; it’s about inner strength. You can have a fit body but a weary heart. God promises that those who wait on Him will be able to keep running their spiritual, mental, and emotional races without quitting. Spiritual Application Faith endurance : Waiting doesn’t mean standing still forever. Someti...

DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 2: MOUNTING UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES - STRENGTH RENEWAL

Image
DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 2: MOUNTING UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES - STRENGTH RENEWAL Isaiah 40:31a But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength…” Recap of Part 1 Last time in Part 1, we learned that waiting is not passive idleness but active readiness — just like the attentive waiter at Mukase Restaurant in Koforidua, who stayed close, alert, and ready to serve. Waiting well means you are positioned for purpose, prepared to respond, and in tune with the One you serve. Today, we move into the first promise in Isaiah 40:31 — strength renewal. Spiritually — Strength for the Inner Man Waiting on God is like plugging your soul into a divine charging port. Prayer: builds spiritual stamina. Even short, consistent prayers keep your spirit strong. Word meditation: reprograms your mind with God’s truth. Worship: lifts your heart above weariness. Just like your phone’s battery won’t last forever if not charged, your spirit will drain without intentional connection to God. Wai...

DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 1: RENEWED STRENGTH IN THE WAITING

Image
DON'T WASTE YOUR WAITING. PART 1: RENEWED STRENGTH IN THE WAITING Isaiah 40:31 “ …they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength…” The Mukase Restaurant Experience Not too long ago, I took a trip to Koforidua to visit my beloved — my wife-to-be. We decided to spend time together at a restaurant called Mukase to treat ourselves. I still remember it vividly: the food was great, the atmosphere was calm, but one detail stood out more than anything — our waiter. He wasn’t far from us; just a short distance away, always watching, always ready. I would raise my hand, and there he was, attending to me. My beloved would place a request, and within seconds, it was at our table. He wasn’t wandering around aimlessly or scrolling through his phone in a corner. He was alert, positioned, and ready to serve the moment we placed a demand. When I got home, I reflected on the beautiful time I’d had with my beloved, and my mind kept going back to that waiter’s readiness. That’s when the Holy ...

WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 13 - THE FINAL LAP: WHEN THE PIT BECOMES THE PATH

Image
WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 13 - THE FINAL LAP: WHEN THE PIT BECOMES THE PATH Genesis 50:20 You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good…”  Every journey has its defining stretch—the point where the finish line is in sight but the terrain tests every ounce of your endurance. For Joseph, the “ final lap ” of his destiny wasn’t in a palace—it began in a pit. Joseph’s story is a masterclass in God’s ability to turn adversity into advancement. The Setup Through Envy: His brothers, driven by jealousy, stripped him of his coat and sold him as a slave. To them, it was an act of rejection. To God, it was the first step toward preservation. The Training in Obscurity: In Potiphar’s house, Joseph learned management, leadership, and integrity—even when no one was watching. His excellence was building a resume for the palace. The Injustice That Redirects: False accusations landed him in prison, but prison became the platform for interpreting dreams—connecting him to the very pers...

WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 12: FROM ORDINARY SERVICE TO EXTRAORDINARY BREAKTHROUGH

Image
WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 12: FROM ORDINARY SERVICE TO EXTRAORDINARY BREAKTHROUGH Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…”  Recap of Part 11: In Part 11, we discovered how God’s setups are often years in the making. Long before the moment of need, He is already aligning people and opportunities to intersect with our destinies. Sometimes, the road to your breakthrough begins with a task so ordinary, so unnoticed, that you might think it doesn’t matter. But heaven records it, honors it, and—when the time is right—uses it to open doors no man can shut. Take Ama’s story. Ama was a nanny who cared for a young white boy whenever he and his family visited Ghana for holidays. She did her work with such excellence and genuine love that the boy grew deeply attached to her. His parents, though loving, were busy and often absent, so Ama became his safe place, his comfort, his “ Auntie Ama. ” For years, every time they came to...

WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 11: WHEN GOD’S SETUP IS YEARS IN THE MAKING

Image
WHILE WE WAIT, GOD IS WORKING PART 11: WHEN GOD’S SETUP IS YEARS IN THE MAKING Jeremiah 1:5 “ Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, before you were born, I set you apart…”  Recap of Part 10 In Part 10, we saw how God begins to reveal His master plan step by step—when the pieces start to fit, and we suddenly realize why certain delays, detours, or divine connections happened. Sometimes, God begins setting the stage for your breakthrough years before you even know you’ll need it. While you’re living ordinary days, He’s aligning people, places, and events for a specific moment in your future. Think of how Esther was chosen as queen long before Haman’s evil plot. Or how Ruth “ happened ” to glean in Boaz’s field before she knew he was her kinsman-redeemer. God’s setups don’t just solve problems—they preserve destinies. Your “ Cyrus moment ” may not start with a mighty decree—it could start as a casual meeting, a small act of service, or a relationship that seems insignificant at...

WHEN THE ROBE COMES OFF: HONORING THE HUMANITY OF GOD’S SERVANTS PART 7: FINAL LAP: STANDING IN THE GAP — THE URGENCY OF INTERCESSION

Image
WHEN THE ROBE COMES OFF: HONORING THE HUMANITY OF GOD’S SERVANTS PART 7: FINAL LAP: STANDING IN THE GAP — THE URGENCY OF INTERCESSION  1 Kings 19:4 Ezekiel 22:30 “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the sake of the land, that I would not destroy it, but I found no one [not even one].” (AMP) Becoming Watchmen Over God’s Servants Recap of Part 6: Yesterday, we exposed the reality that some ministers are hiding secret sins—not because they don’t love God, but because they don’t feel safe to confess. We were reminded to pray, not punish, and to cover, not cancel. Heaven is still searching. God is still looking. Not for another preacher. Not for another platform. But for a gap stander. An intercessor. A spiritual defender of those who are too exhausted to pray for themselves. Throughout this devotional, we've uncovered the hidden battles of pastors and ministers—the emotional lows, the secret temptations, the heavy loneliness, t...

THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN

Image
THE GREAT WALL: WHEN WALLS FAIL PART 2 — THE ENEMY AT THE GATE: STRONG WALLS, WEAK WATCHMEN In Part 1, we saw that walls do not fail because they are weak; they fail when the gates are compromised. Even the mighty Great Wall of China, built with stones, sweat, and sacrifice, could not stop an enemy when its gatekeepers failed. True strength lies not in the wall itself, but in the vigilance and integrity of those who guard it. Now in Part 2, we explore how weak watchmen at the gate can undo even the strongest defenses. Every wall has two sides: the builders who raise it and the watchmen who guard it. A wall can be tall, thick, ancient, and mighty…but if the hearts of its watchmen grow tired, distracted, or compromised, the enemy does not need strength — just an opportunity. The Great Wall teaches us this: Strength is useless without vigilance. Protection is fragile without attention. A boundary is only as safe as the person standing at the gate. Let’s journey deeper. THE STORY — Part 2 ...

THE LIFE CYCLE OF SIN AS CHILDBEARING PART 18 - FINAL LAP

Image
THE LIFE CYCLE OF SIN AS CHILDBEARING PART 18 - FINAL LAP  James 1:15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. RECAP OF PART 17 In the last chapter, we explored how lustful desires act as “sugar overload,” offering fleeting pleasure but leaving a lasting emptiness. In this final lap, we’ll focus on Bitterness and Unforgiveness (Processed Foods)—revealing how these toxic emotions quietly build up, harden our hearts, and block us from fully experiencing God’s love and peace. 4. Bitterness and Unforgiveness (Processed Foods) Bad for Growth: Holding on to bitterness and unforgiveness is like consuming processed, artificial foods during pregnancy. These “foods” provide no nourishment and only fill the body with toxins, leading to long-term damage. Scripture Reference: “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.” — Ephesians 4:31 (NIV) This verse calls us to remov...
