KNOWING GOD FOR YOURSELF BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI A man of God said in a program I attended few weeks back: "our children must have their personal experiences with God. They must not only know God as the God of their fathers, but their God, too." It is true your parents are praying for you, watching over you at all times, but I want to tell you that you need to have your own personal experience with God. How does a lady whose mother is the one who reminds her to pick her Bible to read or to pray survive while alone? That means when such lady gets to school, she would not bother opening her Bible because there is no one to remind her. You don't need to wait for the family devotion daily for your survival. Your altar is calling you. Personal prayer is important as far as family prayer is. Be responsible and accountable. You don't begin to train your children in the way of the Lord when they are old. Teach them in the way of the Lord and w

RED FLAGS YOU MUST WATCH OUT FOR IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI There are some people who got married thinking they would change their spouse after marriage but it has never been the case. What you have been noticing now may never change if you don't talk about it immediately. That is why you don't say love is blind and thereby neglect vital issues that need attention now. One of the attributes of love is not that it is blind but that it suffers long. Love bears all things, love reproves. So the fact that you can see the wrongs now, love can still make you to reprove without any selfish interest. When you are being taken for granted now that you are still courting, he or she can never respect you when you are married. There should be respect from both parties. When I say respect, I don't mean the lady should be kneeling down to greet the man neither should the man begin to call her aunty. You should treat one another with dignity and h

SEVEN THINGS EVERY WRITER MUST BEAR IN MIND BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI  That you are a writer does not mean you don't have your weaknesses. You haven't reached perfection yet, you are improving day by day.  That you are a writer does not mean you have stopped growing, please do not peg your growth. You need God like every other person. Read your Bible and pray everyday.  That you are a writer does not write off the place of cultivating relationships with others. You've got to relate. If you don't, people will tag you as proud and you may not be able to reach their heart. In relating though, discernment is crucial.  That you are a writer does not mean you can't be corrected any longer. You should be opened to criticisms, corrections and should be ready for rebuke at all times. Those things are meant to build you up if taken with a good heart.  That you are a writer does not mean you don't need to read other writer's articles.

WOO LIKE A GENTLEMAN BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBEOLA BUNMI A young man wanted to propose to a lady sometime ago, he called her to a secluded place, led her in some prayers, asked her some funny questions before going straight to the point. He was like, "I want you to pray about it and give me response." Which kind of response do you want after the whole prayer? If I were the one, I would give him the response immediately.  And that was how a brother approached me one time like that. He shared the Scriptures with me for like thirty minutes before he declared his intentions. I think he even called me for Bible study though I knew it wasn't his intention. Don't ask me what ensued. 😀😀 Some will even approach a sister, tell her the visions they saw and still ask her to pray about it. What do you want her to still pray about? Why did you share the vision hurriedly, is it not to convince her that you were the right person for her?  Bro, you don't need to

PRAYER TAKES DISCIPLINE BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI "After knowing the Hebrew and Greek words for prayer please pray." Kehinde Bamidele After reading some books on prayers, having attended few conferences on prayers, I have come to realise that it takes discipline to pray.  If you are not disciplined, you may not be able to pray despite obvious account of hundreds of prayer conferences you have attended.  Books on prayers are good, of course, I have read about two books on prayers this year so I am not discouraging you from reading them. But if you are not disciplined, you will not pray after reading them.  You've got to be disciplined when it comes to prayer or else you will just know the Greek and Hebrew word for prayer and yet not praying.  The devil has a way of whispering to you to postpone your prayers and you will discover you can't pray later as proposed. It has happened to me several times in which I postponed my prayer but at

WHAT EVERY WRITER MUST KNOW  BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI The other day I wrote on consistency, a friend who is also a writer told me some days later that he wanted to write on the same topic that same day but was too busy. If he had done that, we would have written on the same topic, passing the same message, but the content might be different. I was working on a write-up for some days and the day I planned publishing it, I saw something that looked just like it written by a friend. I was awed by how God inspires His own people. This has happened to me countless times. There are times I write on a particular subject, and days after, I see another writer writing on the same subject. What do I have to do? I have to relax, read, and be blessed. The person was inspired to write at that time on the same subject. I wrote an article about five months ago. Those who are close to me know how I get inspired to write. My friend was sitting down right on my bed as I was writi
