When safety is guaranteed (Prayer Edition)

Read: Psalm 91 

Hello Friend!

Have you ever found yourself in a place where you felt so scared and almost so sure that something bad will happen? A young woman narrated a story of how she got lost after a ship wreck, that she thought she would never be found. How would it feel to find yourself somewhere far away with no way to reach anyone who knows you? To think of it is quite scary, right? 

Many things in this life can be scary, and there are many risks we take in life. Stepping out of your house everyday can even be a risk, because no one knows what lurks out there. But as children of God, we don’t live in fear, but live everyday with the assurance that God is always with us and He is always watching over us. The book of Psalms 91:11-12 says that, “For He will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.” Isn’t that so reassuring?!

In today’s publication, we are building our faith in God’s word, even as we pray 3 important prayers. As we gradually approach the second half of the year, may we continue to dwell safely under God’s canopy. Amen!









Keep in Mind
God never slumbers or sleeps.

What type of Christian are you?

Sister Rose was stopped at the gate of heaven, and confusion filled her face. “What is going on here?” she asked. “My name is Sister Rose Agatha, the General Choir Director of the Association of Christian Choristers in my country. What do you mean I’m not qualified to enter?” The angel looked at her calmly. “I’m sorry, ma, but the gate has been shut against you. Many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14). She felt offended. “Sir, with all due respect, you must be mistaking me for someone else. I served God all the years of my life on earth. Do you know how many choir groups I headed? How many crusades I was invited to? I was very popular.” “The Kingdom of God is not about popularity,” the angel replied. “What quality of service did you render to God? Was it for His glory or to please men? Remember, ‘For we must all stand before Christ to be judged… each of us will receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body’” (2 Corinthians 5:10). “An...

Drifting Away (Part 1)

Chidi was known as a devoted brother—quiet, disciplined, and deeply committed to God. He was one of those people whose life seemed to reflect his faith effortlessly. In his church, he served faithfully in the choir, never missing rehearsals, always present, always focused. People admired him, not just for his voice, but for his consistency. Outside church, Chidi worked as an operations assistant in a fast-growing fintech firm. He was diligent, respectful, and serious about his job. His life seemed steady—until things began to change. One morning, news spread across the office that their boss had resigned. A new manager was appointed—a confident, well-spoken woman. She was married, but from the moment she met Chidi, something about him caught her attention. At first, it was subtle. “Chidi, can you stay back for a few minutes after work? I’d like to go over something with you,” she said one evening. Chidi nodded politely. “Yes ma.” But the “work discussions” soon ...

The beauty of God’s mercy

  God’s mercy is  one of the most beautiful expressions of His love toward us. It is constant, undeserved, and always available—no matter our past or present. The Bible reminds us that “The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning” (Lamentations 3:22–23 NLT). Every new day is proof that God has not given up on us. His mercy is not limited or conditional. “The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love” (Psalm 103:8 NLT). Even when we fall short, He responds with patience and kindness rather than judgment. God’s mercy reaches into every area of our lives. “Let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most” (Hebrews 4:16 NLT). In our moments of weakness, confusion, or need, His mercy is always within reach. It is also through His mercy that we are saved and sust...
