…spreading the fragrance of His knowledge…
Not too long ago, I decided to pay my elder sister a visit. I didn’t tell her I was coming since I wanted it to be a surprise.
When I got to her home, I knocked on the door. Her younger son asked from within, “Who is there?”
I made my voice deep and spoke like a man, “Is that James?”
Sisters, you are powerful.
And I am not saying it in that bra-burning, fist-clenched, arm-raised, wild-haired, hardened-feminist kind of way.
No. I’m saying it with much fear and trembling.
Sisters, you are powerful.
I’m not only referring to getting a job you have been praying for, money coming into your bank account, or protection from an accident.
I’m also talking about blind eyes opening. Deaf ears popping. The dead coming back to life. Fibroids disappearing. Limbs growing out.
Those types of miracles…
I’m glad this series has come to an end.
Even though I knew God wanted me to write on it, it has been quite draining and exhausting. At one point, as I was praying and writing the post on How To Become And Stay Sexually Pure (1), I inexplicably burst into tears because I just had a sudden overpowering feeling that someone desperately needed it at that time.

(4)GUARD YOUR GATES – AND YOUR ENVIRONMENT
A while ago on social media, someone shared a rather lengthy revelation she had. I will give a brief summary:
In it, she saw a woman reading a book, and from the book rose up a form of spiritual dust that went into her eyes and left a film on them. Immediately, she became spiritually blind – and fell in love with the deception she was reading. Another was reading a book, and two snakes came out of the book and entered the reader’s eyes…
I was asking the Lord what to write on this topic, and He asked, “How did YOU get to where you are are?” (Paraphrase)
So, here goes.
(1)INVITE JESUS INTO YOUR ‘DIRTY’ ROOM…
So, Jesus knocks on the door of your sexual life and asks, “Can I come in?”
And we say, “Yes, Lord…just one moment.”
Then we switch off the X-rated movie on our television sets – or change it to CBN.
We put off that raunchy music – or change it to praise and worship…
Scenario 1:
Until I left the area, I used to attend an amazing weekly service a few years back: awesome music, relevant and uplifting word – and the tangible presence of God.
The head pastor – while not as ‘extremely famous’ as some other ministers – is still well known in the country. He is also regarded by some other leaders as a ‘father’: not really in terms of age or spiritual status – but with regards to his heart…
