Focus on how you walk this season. Singleness is not a season where you should only be focusing on preparing yourself for marriage. In fact, that part of this season though important if you have a desire to pursue marriage is not the most important part of your season.
In your singleness, focus on your walk with God, growing in your faith, walking in His purpose for your life and focus on submitting to the Lord so you may become fruitful in the Spirit, helpful in your community, a fighter for the oppressed, a light in the world and salt of the earth. This is the season when God’s affairs are your affairs and His purposes become your purposes (in fact it should be so all our lives but when marriage comes, even the Bible tells us that our attention will be divided at times). Use your singleness well and LIVE. It’s not a season where you are “dead” until someone else comes along. Have fun (within God’s boundaries off course) and love people well, revealing to them Christ’s character, love, grace and mercy through the way you live, act and speak. ✨

🗣🗣 helloooo, eyes on JESUS!!!!
✨
✨

Trust and confidence in the Lord go together.Note how the scripture does not say “the person who is confident “ but “whose confidence is in the Lord”. Do you believe you trust God yet place your confidence in yourself (self) ? Or are you placing your confidence in Christ alone? Food for thought on this Sabbath day. ✨
✨
Trust in the Lord and be confident in Him! We do not trust God because of what He can do for us but rather because He is God! (Period) ✨

The entire Gospel of John was written so that we may believe in Jesus. In this beautiful book (I might be biased, it’s my favorite 😁), Jesus reveals Himself to us in amazing ways.
As the good shepherd, He guides His sheep and the sheep KNOW His voice. A few verses before this statement, Jesus tells us that if we abide in His Word, if we continue in His Word we are truly His disciples.
See, it’s not enough to know about Jesus, you must KNOW him and KNOW his unfailing Word. When you know someone, you become familiar with their mannerism, their character, their ways and their VOICE! When we take the time to get to KNOW Jesus, we will KNOW his voice and only Him will we follow. The sheep only follow the voice of the shepherd they KNOW (intimately) and who has cared for them, nurtured them and always goes before them; a stranger they will not follow. Are you following the voice of Jesus or other voices? Which voice is dominating your life right now? If I may say so, do not even follow your own voice. It has often been manipulated by the enemy, reveals the evil of our hearts and is not always conformed to the Truth. So if there is a voice and a shepherd you should follow today, let it the voice of the good shepherd. He knows you well because God has drawn you to Him and He has laid down His life for you. Deep down, there’s a longing inside of you to be known , well good news, you are known by the most amazing loving and holy God. And you can know Him too. ✨
✨
My dear singles, before you add more voices in your ears, more opinions, more this and more that, can I encourage you to know the voice of the One who knows you?! He is your good shepherd, the only One who has and ever will lay down His life for you like no one else can. A future spouse can and may love you but God’s agape love is the only one that meet the deep rooted desire for love you are looking for. Know Him, know His love FIRST! ✨
✨
And what a comfort to know that when we know His voice, in the spiritual , the enemy, the thief who comes to steal, kill and destroy cannot pull us out of the good shepherd’s arms. He cannot steal us away. ✨

Let him ask in FAITH! ✨
✨
You never have to ask children if they have faith as they ask and seek. No one even has to teach a child how to seek or ask. They simply do and believe firmly that they will get what they ask for.
Maybe you can relate if you have a child and they’ve asked over and over for the same thing with the same tenacious confidence. Or maybe you once were that child asking until you finally got what you asked for. If you are anything like one of my friends, even until teenagehood, she made her case each time she asked for something... frankly I thought she would become a lawyer, that’s how much she always insisted and never changed her mind in her asking.
Likewise, the Bible tells us that when we ask, we cannot be half-hearted. We cannot doubt and change our mind with every emotion or thought that comes. We must stand confident in our asking and have faith in the One who can answer us. Without faith, it is impossible to please God and so you’re asking must come from a place of faith. Faith is our foundation! BELIEVE BELIEVE BELIEVE

We all NEED and could use the unmerited GRACE of God.
✨
✨
I don’t know about you but I 🙋🏽‍♀️ need grace. Grace to get through each minute of every day, grace to deal with difficult people, grace for my sins, grace to overcome sin, grace to walk with the Lord as I should, grace to tame my tongue when it is feeling hot and bothered, grace for loving other people well, grace for the little ones around me, grace for my (future) spouse, grace for ALL and in ALL circumstances. Thank God I know a King name Jesus and He never runs out of grace. He does not offer grace by the dixie cup but by overflow , in portions I don’t even have room to receive.
It was and is grace that saved me. Thank you Lord for your grace and I plead that you would allow your single children on this platform and all children of God on this platform your unmerited, unprecedented, unmatched GRACE. ✨

“in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NASB‬‬
✨
✨
✨
It’s easy to be ungrateful, to forget to give thanks when we don’t have what we want. BUT it’s also possible to develop an attitude of gratitude towards the Lord for who He is in His infinite wisdom, in His unfailing love, long suffering ways, His never ending providence and His amazing grace. Whether you choose to be ungrateful or whether you choose to nurture an attitude of gratitude , the choice is yours. On the other hand, to understand gratitude, you need to know the ‘who’ behind it. When we say thank you, we express thankfulness towards someone for something. Having an attitude of gratitude cannot be void of the ‘who’. Giving thanks to God in all things is “recognizing that our blessings have a single source - a real, personal, living, and loving Giver” because after all “every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights” (James 1:17).
So friends, what if you instigate the principle and practice of expressing your gratitude to you?
Let’s start now! 🙋🏽‍♀️ raise your hand and write below 👇🏽 in the comments at least one thing you give thanks to God for today. ✨
✨
🙋🏽‍♀️i’ll start : today I give thanks to God and I praise my Holy God for letting me see and experience a new day, for keeping me, helping me walk in His footsteps, correcting me when I’m wrong and providing for me so that I have a roof over my bed, can sleep in my own bed tonight and do not go hungry. I thank the Lord and bless His name for a beautiful Sabbath rest to come and for taking such great care of my loved ones. My aunt and uncle had one of the craziest and nearly deadliest car accident yet they walked away without a single scratch while the car is totalled. I praise the Lord! ✨

One of the blessings of singleness is the opportunity to come to the knowledge of your life’s purpose and identity as you come into a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ. ✨
✨
1) So often, people get into relationships without knowing who they truly are and why they exists, what’s their life mission and purpose and who does God say that they are. As a result, this can affect how we live, love others, see ourselves and treat others, not to mention how we allow others to treat us. Many at times, in the course of a relationship, the person who gets to know God deeper begin to understand their identity in Christ and their purpose... 9/10 that may lead to leaving the relationship because they finally understand who they are meant to be, how they are meant to live and honour the Lord. Many times, that may be what allows such a person to understand why they cannot remain in the relationship they are in. ✨
✨
2) Knowing our purpose sets us free: free from wasting talents, time and gifts because we’re chasing after too many things. Free because the enemy can no longer affect us with his lies.
Free to walk in the Spirit and allow God to lead us rather than leading ourselves.
There is freedom when we know the truth, live in the truth and walk in the Truth. ✨
✨
3) You don’t have to know all the details :the what, when , where and how of your purpose all at once in order to live it out. Let God lead you. Take the pressure off. The details will be revealed as you live out the truth of God’s Word, let the Lord lead you and walk in obedience , faith and faithfulness to His Word and His will. It’s okay not to know everything, Jesus knows and that’s what matters most. ✨
✨
And finally 4) this should be obvious but I’ll repeat even more. You CANNOT know who you are in Christ Jesus and why you were created , yes created, created in the image of the sovereign and mighty God, El Elohim , the Great I AM without knowing first who Jesus is and why you need Him so much in your life. Only the Creator can reveal to His creation why it was created in the first place. But trust me, once you set your heart to know Him and walk with Him, your purpose and identity will become much clearer.

We have a God in the business of healing! We may not always understand what He does or does not do and why but we can trust that His Word is true.
From the mouth of our very Lord Jesus came the words of Isaiah 61 and He declared “today this scripture is fulfilled”. Today, if you are in need of wholeness, if today Jesus were to say “will be made well”, then claim His promises and remind Him of His own promises to you. Whether you are in need of a heart healing, physical healing (🙋🏽‍♀️yep me too) ,emotional healing or mental healing, look back on the Word declared in Isaiah 61. Jesus seeks to make us free from sin and whole. He wants to heal broken hearts, bring good news of great joy to you, offers salvation , grace, mercy, love and more and He desires to set you free from anything that holds you in bondage. So remind Him of His promise, claim His promise and believe that He is as faithful as He says He is. ✨
✨
“O Lord my God, I cried to you for help, and you have healed me.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭30:2‬ ‭ESV‬‬

In this season, and in every season, we should set our hearts to doing what Ezra did , a man of God who knew what His priorities should be and like Mary, a woman captivated by her Lord. Our priorities should always be to first develop a consistent devotional life and that requires:
✨Spending time in intimate fellowship with the Lord through His Word and Prayer , ✨Studying the Word of God ✨Obeying, applying and doing what the Word instructs
✨Teach those same precepts, status, and instructions to others with love. ✨
✨
It’s already January 19,2020 , what steps are you taking to build a consistent personal devotional life? How are you making spending time with God a priority and a delight? Is your schedule overcrowded and you cannot find time regularly to be in God’s Word? Or is your schedule built around your personal time with God?
Take steps today (not tomorrow not after tomorrow not “when I get a chance” but TODAY) to build a consistent devotional life. This is guaranteed to be one thing you will never regret.

In the midst of setting goals and chasing after your dreams, don’t forget the most important part...
Goals are great and I’ve set some myself. Dreams show you how faith can really move and that’s great too but JESUS is the giver of life, the Savior, Healer, grace filled God, merciful Lord and the God who brings salvation.
Don’t chase after goals and dreams so much this year that you forget the One who loves your soul most and gave His life for you. In fact, each goal and each dream should be driven from honouring the One who created you and letting Him be known. ✨

Be a single christian chasing after God.

It’s that time of year again when we should all reflect on the past year.
Looking back at 2019, take time my lovely friends to reflect on the ups and downs, victories and failures, progress , etc. Here are some things to get you started:
❄️ How have you grown in your personal relationship with Jesus? ❄️what were some of the highs and lows of your relationships ?(family, friends, etc) ❄️is there anyone you still need to forgive before the year ends?
❄️how have your grown in your singleness? Think of the highs and lows. How did you handle the highs, and how did you manage the lows? ❄️have you made any financial progress in the past year? (Paid off debt, saved, invested, gifted, etc) ❄️how have you been walking more into your purpose? Are you sharing the good news with all those you meet? ❄️how have you managed your time? Personal time, social, etc
❄️which goals have you reached in your health? What were some of your greatest challenges? ❄️ in who have you invested in this year? Who did you help grow? ❄️ what were the highs and lows of your career? ❄️ what are some of the greatest miracles you have seen God do in your life? Which prayers were answered? ❄️ what could you have done better ? ❄️

Every time I read that one small passage of scripture, it does something in me. I am in awe over the faithfulness of Mary and her desire to please God so much from a humble heart. Mary could have said “no i am engaged”, “why me Lord?” Or anything else that may have been on the selfish side. Instead, she chose to be selfless. She chose to put God first , His desires and His ways above her own. And every Word given by God , she treasured them in her heart. (luke 2:19) . How many of us are willing and ready NOW to say “Lord, I am your servant , your will be done”? How ready are you to give Jesus your all, your life, your desires with a grateful heart because he loved you enough to give His life for you?! From this moment on this holiday season, Lord help us to say like Mary “ i am the Lord’s servant, may it be done according to your Word.” When we are single and tempted to put off being your instruments until later (when it’s convenient or when we’re married) help us to be your instruments now, to be faithful, willing and love you now in words and in deeds in Jesus’s worthy name. Amen. “

There are great opportunities in this season, seize them. Great work to be done, do it how you are able to do it, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus! ✨

Today I pray for all singles experiencing the Christmas blues :
“Father in Heaven, I commit to you all the singles who are faithfully waiting on you. In this season of celebration, celebration of the life of Christ, a beautiful reminder of his coming to deliver Your people, I pray that you will not let your single children be pressed down by negative emotions. May they rejoice in you, find strength and peace in you and continue to live their lives for you. May their desire for you surpass any other earthly desires even marriage. As they wait upon you for the blessings of marriage, may they still be able to thoroughly enjoy this advent season casting all their cares on you in Jesus’ name . ✨

Singleness is a great season to build relationships with other people. In fact every season is great for that. However, in our season of singleness, we can learn well how to live and build our lives with other people in our community (home, church, work, school, neighbourhood) and learn to love other people well. If you cannot love and live with others around you now, how will you do it in marriage 🤷🏽‍♀️🤔? As the apostle Paul said “be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave you.” This is the time when we can apply these teachings to all our relationships and especially within the body of Christ. You cannot do it alone so get plugged into a local church and learn/ share with others life-on-life. This my dear will help you build your “horizontal” relationships (relationships with others) as you build more and more your “vertical” relationship with God. That’s it, that’s all! ✨

Today, I call to mind:
❄️ the difficulties and challenges of the past 2 years
❄️ the heart breaking and shattering disappointments
❄️ the broken relationships ❄️the days when there seemed to be nothing sweet about life
❄️the long teary nights
And then I see just how loving, faithful and gracious God is.
I remember just how far I see, how all these things broke me and forced me to come to a point of complete dependency on God.
At the time, I wanted Him to show the reasons behind so much pain. I didn’t fully understand that suffering is never for nothing. Are there some things I wish I could have changed? Created a different scenario? Well yes the human in me wishes things would have turned out differently. Though I would be tempted to write a different story for myself I still would not change a thing because today I know Him like I never knew His heart before. All these things have brought me closer to Him along with moments of joy unexplainable. The pain of all I’ve lost cannot compare to the joy I have in Christ.
So I call to mind every moment, every memory of the past and see the glory of God on display, His excellence in all that He does, His faithfulness when things seemed impossible and His love in the darkest hours. He is indeed good! There is no other God like Him, He alone is worthy of praise. He alone can mend broken hearts, care for the sick and suffering, and love me so completely unconditional, to save a sinner like me. So this Christmas season, I recall to mind those things and rejoice that Jesus came and will come again. ✨

This is sooo hard to do sometimes. We live in a time when we want express results, microwave-fast solutions and instant gratification. It can be hard to be content in circumstances that are the very opposite of what we want and desire. YET God is able to satisfy us in EVERY season, EVERY circumstances if we let Him. Developing an attitude of gratitude and being content are the key to help us navigate through life. ✨
✨
How can I be when my health is failing?
How can I be content when all my plans fall apart?
How can I be content when God seems to withhold the very things I desire?
How can I be content when my marriage is falling apart?
How can I be content when I’ve lost my job or cannot pay my bills?
Those are some of the questions that play in our minds when we think about contentment.
Well we can always look at things from a different perspective .
✨
✨
I’m content because God is holy and He is good therefore surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life.
I’m content because though my health may be failing God chose to gift me with one more day, one more opportunity to give Him praise and tell someone about Jesus.
I’m content because God is working all things together for my good. If He does not allow it, I may not be ready for it or He’s got something better for me so I will wait expectantly and patiently.
I am content because God is still blessing me.
Let’s all learn to be content, to change our perspective to an eternal perspective and let God be God. ✨
