How I received Jesus Christ

The First Chapter

November 2008 was an appalling year to start with. My eyes were extremely weary to see what was surrounding me and what was holding me. I got up that morning with a sad face, knowing that I had to begin a new day with continuous terrors in my life. I was senseless and bored at school. I was doing Grade 8; I pulled myself together for school, and little did I know, God marked it as a new day for a new chapter. School was so boring at that time.

And our teacher called us to join in a prayer with the grade 12 learners—a prayer to prepare them for their final exams. I said to myself, "why are they bothering us because we aren't doing matric?" Everyone was so thrilled to have me join them, while I wasn't.

We found a man of God preaching and encouraging them to pray and study hard. Before we could engage in prayer, I looked around and behind me were my friends and I was standing next to some random girls.

And I closed my eyes and my body was too unsettled. And I didn't understand the pressure. I have never fallen in church or encountered God before. As if it’s not enough, I started crying, and I heard a great laughter from behind. I didn't care if it was my friends or not.

I started crying and shuddering at the same time. I thought to myself that maybe I was developing madness, then a soft voice whispered, "It is the Holy Spirit."

To be continued.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Why You Find It Difficult to Recover Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1. Unresolved Spiritual Covenants and Agreements One major reason people struggle to recover their destiny is because of unseen spiritual agreements or covenants, knowingly or unknowingly entered into. These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...

Understanding Destiny Swapping: A Hidden Agenda Over Your Purpose (PART 1)

Have you ever felt like something is off in your life—like you're living a life that doesn’t belong to you? You're talented, passionate, and full of dreams, yet doors remain closed and progress is mysteriously delayed. If so, you may be dealing with something deeply spiritual and often hidden: destiny swapping. In this post, we’ll explore what destiny swapping is, how it happens, signs to look out for, and what you can do to get back and reclaim your God-given purpose. What Is Destiny Swapping? Destiny swapping is a spiritual manipulation where one person’s divine destiny is exchanged, stolen, or traded—often without their knowledge—for another person’s benefit. It happens when dark powers, witches, false prophets, or envious individuals manipulate or hijack the divine plan God originally intended for someone’s life. In simple terms, destiny swapping means you end up living a life that is not yours, while someone else is living the blessings, favor, or opportunities that were m...
