Blazing with Rach!

The early morning hours are one of the best times to hear the voice of God, to be impressed  with His words and to have that simple or intense conversation. Well, actually, I get impressed quite quickly as long as it is God's words. Our conversations are not limited by time. I love the silence in the room except when the train goes by and I am jolted out of that stillness. In that silence, I can hear better than when it gets noisy. However, training my ears to hear when it is noisy is an art in itself. It has taken some years of serious practice and I continue with this art like it is the breath of my short life on earth. These days, my eyes are bombarded with blatant lies and deception, even when there is a volume of evidence to prove the truth. I can sit around and mope or I can remember who I am in the kingdom or why I have an existence for such a time as this. I can choose to be very afraid of simple lifestyle decisions like meeting friends, eating out and breathing the

 I have recently returned from the United States of America (USA).  Whether the journey entails traveling through various geographical locations, a spiritual journey to discover God, an emotional journey of grasping realities and healing or a journey of hardships through medical, marital or moral issues, one thing remains certain:  God is not far from any of these journeys.  His Presence surrounds each one of us on our journey.   The Journeys In preparing for this one month-long journey to the USA, God prompted me to prepare myself.  I embarked on a month-long pray and fast journey prior to my arrival in the USA.  During the time of fasting and praying for the USA, I had the word "AMAZING".  I knew within my spirit that God was promising me an AMAZING journey in the USA. Now that I am back, I can witness to the fact that God is a Promise-Keeper and is ever Faithful.  He gave me AMAZING days daily.  Each day was a true gift of friendships with various people, learning experien

  God inspired me to write these words on 13 April 2021, 8:50am in Honduras when I was in this beautiful land.  I had arrived on 10 April 2021 and as my Honduran brother-in-Christ, Dany, met and drove me from the airport, I sensed such a deep spirit of depression and silence over this land.  When we drove to other parts of Honduras, this was also the sense I experienced.  The joy was lacking and this broke my heart. God also gave me Psalm 18 for dear Honduras which is so precious in His sight.  Do listen to Honduras, be Ready! Honduras, be ready! Joy seems to have taken a walk Away from Honduras. The people have been dealt with a heavy blow  through natural heavy floods that flowed Destroying livelihoods. The warning is real to Hondurans To expect  another season without the sun. You have only one recourse, To cry out to God to be restored. Just like the psalmist cried out, “The LORD dealt with me according to my righteousness;  according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me. “

 Like countless Christians who have heard Ravi Zacharias (RZ) speak, read his books, quoted his words, I too was taken by surprise at the scandal that ensued after his death.  I was surprised by the deception that surrounded RZ than by the fall from the grace of God especially when I have heard that he travelled only with male staff to his international meetings.  Let us face this - we all step out of God's grace once awhile, sometimes more than necessary.  His love and forgiveness draws us back to HIm.  The investigation report makes it clear of RZ's many quiet moments where sexual misconduct could have happened. Coming from a military background, my ears have been assaulted by curse-words  and with sentences punctuated by expletives often enough.  In my uniform, I would stand and take such expressions coming from mostly male soldiers of different ranks as "normal".  I learnt at an early age that men enjoyed the beauty of women, fantasized about them and spoke foul

As I write this post, I am extremely aware that you, the reader might disagree with me over the hypocrisies listed below.  I am aware that I might lose some friends over this particular post.  But I am compelled to write as I need to be faithful to what God has spoken to me during my prayer time. So, with this understanding and the encouragement that I have received from Proverbs 12:22, I write.   My hope is that you do not assume the following: 1. That I am denying the existence of the covid virus 2. That I am against all vaccinations 3.  That I do not care about death Instead, I want you to know that I think: 1.  Covid virus exists but I consider it a little thing due to the 99% recovery rate. 2.  I have taken other vaccinations that has ensured that I will not be re-infected.  Covid vaccine has no such re-assurances.  3.  I care about every dying soul regardless of how they might have died - abortion (womb terrorism), cancer, jihadism, covid.  In fact, the possibility of eternal de

I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God  that was given you in Christ Jesus.                                                                                 - 1 Corinthians 1:4 The discussion of 'abortion of life in the womb' or as I identify it as 'womb terrorism' is most definitely a very sensitive and an emotional journey for women, even Christian women.  Perhaps this had happened in your life whether you believed in Christ at that time or not; perhaps, the pain of irresponsibility is staring at y
