THE RISING OF MARY Have you met a woman who is beautiful yet simple? A woman who is eager for change and ready for it. A woman who is yielded to be a vessel of change. Let me introduce to you, Mary, the mother of Jesus our Saviour. Having witnessed molestations and enslavery towards her town, she has for long hungered for change. There she was, under a tree, quiet, yielded and sensitive. She was visited by the Angel of the Lord who brought the great news to her- You are an agent of change.  The Lord needs your womb to carry the seed that will effect a lasting change. After much questioning, she made a statement of surrender- "Be it unto me according to your word". (Luke 1:26-38) I know you are aware of the chaos and the darkeness in our world today and you clamour for change, but are you ready to be part of  the change? Yes, you pray and ask for revival but are you yielded to the Lord?  Hope your reason for marriage is not just for your selfish desi

THE EMERGENCE OF SAVIOURS She didn't allow her background to lay her back to the ground. She was an orphan who was single-handedly raised by Mordecai. She could have gone haywire but she dared to be different. She didn't become wayward because she was raised by a male but rather, she received training.  When the opportunity came for her to contest for the position of a queen, she was submissive even to the maids assigned to  her. She is that being who is  always ready to learn. She wore humility like clothing.  So, she obtained favour from the maids. And when it was her turn to actually appear before the king, she obtained favour, she was chosen over others and she was crowned the queen.  HER NAME IS ESTHER.  When she got to the palace, she still had the best interest of her people at heart. She wasn't selfish like some of us today who once we taste power, we look down on everyone else. We don't care if others perish so far we are safe. This was not s

THE POWER OF THE MIND BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI So I saw a story online few days ago whose caption portrayed it was a godly story. I took my time in reading all the episodes. I was just shaking my head in between. The reason been that the story portrayed unforgivingness and all of that. The story didn't end well. I blamed myself for taking my time to read such a thing. Christ wouldn't have taught us to live the way the story ended.  As I wanted to pray in the night, all the story began to replay in my mind. It was like I was seeing a movie. I began to ruminate about the story and I was just saying to myself the story shouldn't have ended that way. At that point, I began to understand the power of thoughts. It's true I read the story in the afternoon, but it has been stored in my subconscious mind.  Have you ever retired to bed in the night before and all what you did during the day, the things you read, where you went, the things you said

ISSUES WITH RUNNING MOUTH? QUICK LOOK AT THE WAYS OUT  BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI When you see a man who talks too much, he is a man who is not given to prayer. How tongue will always boast of many things. No matter how he tries, his tongue will always betray him.  I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me. Psalms  39:1 Do you have issues with running mouth? I have got a lasting solution for you.  Do you have issues with minding your business? You always want to pry into the affairs of others even when you are not needed? I have a way out for you. You and I know you can't continue like this. Read on if this matters a lot to you.  Pray I say pray and you will learn how to mind your own business.  Men who prays more are men of few words because their strength is expended in the place of prayer. How will a man who has prayed 6 hours at a stretch still have

DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WANT THEM TO DO TO YOU BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI  Don't mind that man who finds it hard to submit to someone whom God has placed over him but forces his will on his  followers or wants them to listen to him when he gives out instructions.  You will definitely reap what you sow. It's impossible to plant tomatoes and reap yam.  Never you dishonour any man in position today  because men who will dishonour you when you find yourself in that position in the future are warming up. You may not be able to decipher the personality of the man sleeping beside you now. Don't treat men like trash and expect honour from anyone.  Are you there and all you do is to condemn men who are ahead of you? Sooner or later, men will do same to you. Do you make life unbearable for the leaders whom God has placed over you?  Don't be surprised when you occupy a position later and someone does the same to you.  Do you want to comand respe

YOU ARE HERE FOR AN ASSIGNMENT BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI There is no one whom God has created that he had no purpose for. Even a child whom everyone terms as a bastard is important in God's agenda. Nevertheless,  a man can decide to go whichever way he wants to go because man is a free will agent. However, we are encouraged to choose the path of life.  Before Samson was given birth to, a prophecy was hanging on his head that he would deliver his people. We can say Samson was born to deliver his people.  I am sure his parents must have made known to him his purpose but he decided to go the other way round. He thought he could live recklessly and still be a Nazarite. He chose to be distracted and he eventually missed it. He died miserably and God sought for a better replacement for him.  Joseph could have decided to go the way of Samson but he chose to be different. He could have slept with the wife of potiphar and his name would not have been heard. He would n

LESSONS FROM THE HEAVY WEIGHTS GUY  BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI So, I saw this guy who was lifting weights. He was so determined and rugged. He carried it with so much rigour. He is doing this in order to keep fit and to be in good shape. The training was hard on him but he was persistent. I thought I had seen it all until I saw another hefty guy carrying those weights even when it was raining. We all hid ourselves when the rain started but this guy didn't leave that spot. No man could talk him out of the rain. He was persistent. It wasn't easy on him. And I began to ask myself that why would a man want to kill himself in order to have a good physique and to keep fit?  Was he doing it to compete? It's probably no.  Those guys who didn't see them when they  were going through the process will want to be like them overnight. That's not possible. That's another message for another day though.  .............................................

DISCERNING VISION PARTNERS BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI When you share your vision with some persons, just believe that your vision will never get to see the light of the day. They are called vision killers. You need to be separated from them.  When you partner with some persons, your life will remain at the exact point for years. You are not going to get anywhere with them. I have shared my visions with some persons before and all they made me know was how those dreams were rather too big to be actualized. At the end, because I didn't give heed to their counsel and because I had others who were great source of encouragement to me, those dreams came to pass.  Friend, even when no one believes in your vision, even when no one seems to be a source of encouragement to you, encourage yourself in the Lord. Do not let that vision die in your hand. At this point of your life, you need to be intentional about who you let in into your life if your l

MAKING A MESSAGE OUT OF A MESSED UP LIFE WRITTEN BY IFEOLUWA AKINBO Have you heard of the man who persecuted the church so much during his youthful days? Oh, if there was a word after persecution, we will just attribute it to what he did.  He killed and destroyed the people and things of God at will and no one dared question or fight him. He even had followers. He was feared home and abroad. What a trouble he must have been.  But guess what? This guy became a preacher just over night! If he was just a preacher, maybe we wouldn't have made so much noise about it. But this man in question  wrote about 13 books of the New Testament we all read today.  He is the popular APOSTLE PAUL. Can we talk about Christianity and not mention his name? No way!  Apostle Paul whose name used to be Saul became the instrument in the hand of God to take the gospel to the gentiles and set some foundational principles for Christianity. Who says you have to forever dwel

I bring a message from on high, a light that swallows darkness and breaks to pieces the bar that holds down. I see light enter into you. Receive it now. Every man has a past, even Jesus had some couple of experiences before He sat at the right hand of God (His death, His ressurrection and then His glorification). We have a High Priest who has been through our infirmities and because He is glorified, He is calling you to come out of every awkward past experience and enter into your glory.
