I Thought It Was Over...God Changed My Story!

At 16, I encountered the light of Christ and this made me faithful to God.
#Thread Image
At 17, I was about to write my SSCE and NECO exams, I promised God that I will fully write it on my own. That I did perfectly without any single malpractice...
My fellow students tagged me too proud, over intelligent, some said am over claiming, while others said let's wait for his results we will see.
Even my family members will ask boy why are so confident in this thing you are doing, better rethink o😂

I persisted and fulfilled my promise to God but guess what, when the results was out everyone was eager to hear my testimony or otherwise.
Behold results was actually bad, bad that I only made C R K both in WAEC and NECO.

Did u get me, I said in my WAEC and NECO, I only had credit in C R K, others were bad. Can you imagine the shock I had when i saw my results! Hei😭
I was asking God why! For so many months, I cried and was ashamed before my fellows🙈🙈🙈🙈

But when I began to mature and understand God's ways and dimensions, I got to know that God was preparing me for a higher level access.
To sum it all briefly, God lifted me higher that in at 23 I already acquired 2 different bachelor's degree (second class upper each) without sorting for one day!
When I begin to ask God why u are blessing me so much and so early God reminded me of the sacrifice I made with my exams. "It was an investment"
My point is this, most times we may not get what we expected or trusted God for and we conclude that God has failed us not knowing that we are been modeled by God to have a spiritual track record that will inspire a generation 💪
FAM, never give the devil the chance to divert your attention or make you accuse God for any situation you are facing but keep trusting God to turn everything for your good!

Beautiful Experience Shared By Obasi Ifeanyi
We all have a story of how we felt everything was over but God came around and made all things beautiful!

I trust God even in the hardest times because Him alone can change a story of a man!
Do you believe God can change your story even when all men called you failed? Yes! No matter how terrible the situation is, God can still lift you up!

Don't lose focus, keep trusting God, your tomorrow will be greater!

This morning, I woke up to God’s word reminding me of the importance of process, waiting, building and staying to learn what He is teaching me as my teacher.

We may come that point where we almost feel like the Lord is not there because what we have asked for is not forthcoming, you may even feel discouraged but it is settled that the Lord never forsakes His own, not even in the fire!
So what about you? Do you eventually see God as wicked or unjust because He is not answering all your prayers? Are you that Christian who quickly becomes faithless when you are not seeing results?

Job said “Even if you slay me”
Esther said “If I perish I perish”
The three Hebrews boys didn’t mind if God saves them or not and Daniel wasn’t scared of dying in the lion’s den.
How comes we are only for God when it’s favorable? What happens to the process of waiting and learning? Just like David and Joseph, God may take you through a process before the palace.

Just like Abraham, you may have to wait for years to enter into God’s promises for you. We must learn to love God beyond what He can do for us, follow Him because He is God not just for earthly desires!

If you are in a godly relationship, tell us something you are grateful for in your partner or relationship. Let's share godly relationship goals.

Mine: We read books together, he basically encourages me because that guy reads😩

Also, I have learnt how to fast, like fast!
...and yes, I am better than I was in all aspects of my life.

There's more! We get our intimacy when we spend time talking about Jesus. Its beautiful😭
No sex! No smooching! No kissing! Just God's presence, two people growing into God's purpose for them.

If you are serving God because you want to get something from Him, one day you will wake up angry because you may not get all you desire but when you just love and trust Him, you may not get all you desire but you will get all that's best for you.
We serve God because its our life, we owe everything to Him. So just like the three Hebrew boys, Esther, Daniel, Apostle Paul etc.

It is not about how much God can give to them but how committed and sold out they are to God.
God wants us to come to that place where our confession becomes "If I perish I perish! I cannot choose my life or my desires above you Lord. I love you with everything".

This is the kind of growth God is calling us into🔥

Dear Christian,
The flesh is self exalting, it is self demanding! When the spirit says PRAY, the flesh will say you need to rest. When the spirit says BE CALM, the flesh will give you a hundred reasons not to! If you want to serve God, you must die to FLESH🙇
The flesh always wants to show how much it has achieved for God with small pride.
It wants to be able to show emotions, do whatever it wants without self control.
It doesn't even want corrections from God or the scriptures.
The flesh doesn't want to stay without food so if you want to satisfy it's desires, you cannot fast. You can stay for a whole busy day without eating but come and fast na, you will start shaking😂

I was having a conversation with one Unku who was showing some Interest me and I noticed how he was trying to mention God into everything he was saying, yes he wanted me to see how he knows God but I was not fast to conclude o!
I gave it time, I listened to all he had to say and I could see that he was trying to use the fact I was a child of God to make me feel comfortable but it wasn't so long before I could hear him condemn the standard of purity we are keep as believers!
Oh really, the same brother who sounded so God-loving could say there's no need to waiting until marriage if your family already knows about the relationship! God help us.

I was at a wedding yesterday, but I wasn't fast to say the God When anthem, not because it wasn't a beautiful wedding or because I don't anticipate marriage but because I know there is so much requirements for a GOD KIND OF MARRIAGE.
We all want to be loved by somebody's son or daughter, we want a beautiful house, we want to be loved and receive beautiful gifts from our partners. I want that too but wait fes, is that all?
What God has planned for us is way more than gifts, houses, flowers or even vacations. What God has planned is a home that will glorify Him.
