HAUNTED BY THE PAST WRITTEN BY OLUWAFISAYOMI AKINBOYO Oluwafisayomi Adenike is a typical example of one who was broken, shattered and now restored. You wanna know how? leggo Eight (8) years ago, I lost the track, I started getting myself engaged myself in things I shouldn’t be found doingI went astray, my life was a total mess, I became a nonentity, I made no sense to people around me, I rarely had moments of Joy, I was a product of the devil’s bondage, God wasn’t far from me but I was far from him. My life was broken into pieces, I was scared because it appeared useless and of less or no importance. A life that was a sweet smelling savor, a life that was someone else’s desire suddenly became a life that do not count. Horrible were the things I did back then, things that were worthy of eternal damnation, things that do not potray the Light I claimed to carry, things that weighed me down, It left no table untouched and It affected all areas of my life. Spiritually I was d

JUST A REMINDER BY  TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI If you think you are the only one praying at this time and that others are slumbering, thousands of people are still praying. Do not think in your heart that you are the only one connected. Dearly beloved, if you think you are the only one studying your bible, I tell you that there are dangerous men everywhere that are still committed to studying their bible. Thousands of people are still diligent in the place of studying the word of God for they know their nourishment lies there. Sir, you are not the only one baptized with hunger for God. You are not alone in the business of seeking God. There are some calibers of men you haven't come in contact with who are in relentless pursuit of God. Don't think without you, that mission can't be accomplished. Only God is indispensable. Why do you keep bragging about your contribution to that project? You have only obtained mercy. Why do you think witho

SHALL WE ALSO DO THE SAME? BY TRAILBLAZER  AREGBESOLA BUNMI There was no record found of where Samson prayed in the book of judges except when he was stripped of his freedom by his enemies. The only prayer he prayed was to die with his enemies. Jesus encourages us to pray so that we don't enter into temptation. A closer look at the mission God called Samson into, we know it is a delicate one which no man can handle successfully except he is a man of unalloyed commitment and devotion to God. A consecrated vessel must know he is a separate entity. It isn't that he is separated from God and his people but he is separated from the world. He will not conform to the world's standard. What then is expected of him? If he is not conforming, he must be transforming by the renewing of his mind. A chosen vessel is a man of the secret place. The secret place is not only known to a chosen vessel  in the days of adversity. Samson who is supposed to be a deliverer

QUEENS DON'T DO IT  BY AKINWALERE IYANU First of all a Queen is the Wife of a King and every King of a domain has Customs and Values. We have two different categories of race of women on the earth, those after the first Adam and those after the Last Adam(Christ Jesus). But here is where the distinction lies, everyone(lady) who had come to believe in the redemptive work of Jesus has been made Queens and king unto our Lord Jesus. Having Understood this, every Queen must live by the Values that Upholds the Kingdom she represents. In addition, if being an earthly Queen is dignifying, how much more being a Queen in God's Kingdom? We are in the world but not of the world. The world has its own system, philosophies and ideas, but as queens living in the world you are not to Conform to the World. So as Queens, we have our Values which are not compromisable at all.  For example, there are some ceremonies we attend, and  some tables are tagged with 'reserved'

BROKEN,  SHATTERED AND RESTORED BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI It all started with hanging out late in the night with him.  She wanted to dance to the world's tune without being stigmatized.  She wanted to explore her world unscathed.  She wanted to feel among not knowing she was a daughter of destiny.  Little did she know that many are they that are wolves in sheep's clothing.  She met this handsome guy who didn't know the worth of a Ruby. She had contact with the one who do not know how to handle queens.   He took her and had his way through her.  she thought she could live as every other lady but ALAS, SHE WAS BROKEN. This opened her up to several attacks.  She became vulnerable to the wicked one.  She was addicted to pornography and masturbation.  She no longer had control over herself but rather her flesh started controlling her.  She was wounded severally.  She was emotionally scarred. Several things happened in the pr

IF IT WAS GOD WHO STARTED IT, HE IS FAITHFUL TO BRING IT TO COMPLETION BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI Have you ever seen any uncompleted building? You keep wondering why the owner didn't get to complete it. It may be the land owner didn't count the cost before he embarked on the project.  It might even be due to some challenges beyond his capacity. It may be that he died and so the building remains an uncompleted one. Listen friend, God is not a man who will start something and you see it crash halfway. He knows the end right from the beginning. No unfinished project can be credited into His account. In short, after creation, everything He created was termed "Good. " Don't try to help God in finishing a project He started. God is not a man who will start a project and leave it half way. He is too faithful to fail. When God promised Abraham and his wife a son, it means He has declared the process

PROCLAIMERS OF BAD NEWS BY  TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI There are some people you get to meet in this journey, they have never got something good to say. Each day you meet with them, be ready to hear the latest bad news. They are proclaimers of bad news and we, I mean sons of God are proclaimers of good news which is the Gospel. There was this woman then, each time she comes to our house, she would share with us how some people lost their lives in an accident, how someone died of sickness and so many horrible news. She never told us someone got to build a house or even got saved. Those news are terrifying. If what gives you happiness is to share bad news with people, then you are not an emissary of the kingdom. That friend of yours, you have never told her how God loves her and does not want her to perish. Each time you appear, she is always afraid of the unknown because of the horrible news you will come to share. We have been called to share the Gospel which i

MY HEART CRY BY TRAILBLAZER  AREGBESOLA BUNMI Help me to be still in the raging storm. Let me be still and know you as my God. Remove far from me restlessness. Teach me to be patient and to wait on you. Let me rest in your arms and escape worries. Teach me the way and let my wandering heart find rest in you. Ignite in me the fire of devotion. Create in me a heart like yours. Help me to know you are nearer than I think in the day of battle. Do not leave me to my dark counsels. May I not seek help outside of you in the time of peril. Let me come in to the secret place where I can find solace in you. To understand your way and to trust in you I pray. Bring me to a place where I find solace in you alone. Take me deeper into the mysteries of your will. Enlarge my heart and let me have a knowing of your unending love. Let me know that the way of escape from the storm is you. Above all, let me understand that your presence in the storm is

PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY BY TRAILBLAZER  AREGBESOLA BUNMI I have an application lock on my phone. When I open it, it reads "protect your privacy."  With it, I can password any app on my phone. If you don't know my password, you won't be able to operate some functions on my phone. Not everyone should be let in to the secret of your life. Some issues of your life must be kept secret. You remember Samson who revealed the secret of his life his enemy, Delilah? You don't even know the person you are sharing your life with if he desires to see your progress. Don't be surprised if you see him as the cause of your downfall later. There are some people, if they meet someone today, the person knows already 80% of their life. They even start the story from their paternity. Our lives must be passworded as a Christian. We should not have running mouth. We need to pray that God teaches us to bridle our tongue. Your best friend shouldn't know t

OVERFAMILIARITY CAN DENY US OF MANY BLESSINGS BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI Each time I am home, my sister would always beg me to plait my hair for me and I will be like you can't make my hair  but have seen her make beautiful hair for other people. What's worrying me? Overfamiliarity. I have been very amazed when people give testimony of how a man of God prays for them and they are healed. The wife of the same  man of God is at home sick but due to the unbelief of the wife and the familiarity, she doesn't believe in her husband's prayers and so she will remain in that state.  So many opportunities some of us have missed because we are proving too familiar with our friends. We think since we are close to them, we are closer to opportunities  and we can also misbehave. Some of us will not even ask questions about how they were able to get to that point. We know they are very much ahead of us, instead of us to humble ourselves, we bring ourselves to thei

THE ADORNMENT BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI I was watching a channel on dstv sometime ago and I saw a woman who underwent surgery because she felt her boobs were rather too big. I shook my head in displeasure. I have read some articles online in which some undergo plastic surgeries on their face because they are not comfortable with how they look like. Who has deceived us when there are better things to do with our lives? If all our focus as a woman is how we may always catch attention and get accolades for our dressing sense, we are not there yet. I can boldly say such a woman is living below the standard God desires for her.  I have met some persons in my life which I know they are saucy. They jump into every conversation either you call them or not. They are abusive and not disciplined. They lack self control. It is  such that will always jump at every brother, hugging and even giving them pecks they don't deserve. They are seen everywhere. Instead of a gent
