Facing Something Bigger Than You? Here’s How You Can Win It

Facing Something Bigger Than You? Here’s How You Can Win It

by | Nov 7, 2025 | Identity & Calling

Facing something that is bigger than you? Congratulations! Because God is in the picture!

God will always invite you into an assignment that is far beyond what you can do. And, that’s His way.

We, on the other hand, like to stay comfortable. We like our routines and our safety. But when you carry the DNA of God, you begin to understand how He works. God will always come to you with an invitation that stretches you beyond your ability.

We see that in the life of Moses. The Bible says that Moses was content to live with Jethro, tending sheep, enjoying his family, and living a peaceful life. Everything was fine and everything was familiar, until God called him out of his comfort zone into something that was way beyond him.

“Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”

Exodus 3:9-10

God’s people were not a small group—they were nearly six million!

In that moment, God gave Moses an invitation that felt far beyond his reach. That’s what happens to us too.

The gap between where you are and what God is calling you to do is where fear tries to enter. “What if I fail? What if this turns out to be the worst decision of my life?”

What Is God’s Expectation of You When You Are Facing a Big Problem?

This is exactly where God wants you to function by faith, and not by fear. The bigger the gap, the greater the fear may seem; but the greater the gap, the more room there is for the grace of God to fill it.

So if you are in a situation where everything feels overwhelming, where things seem completely beyond your control, know that God is in the picture.

And it’s also a sign that you are growing. Because when you grow, your fears grow too. They’re no longer the small fears you once had.

Remember, the battle becomes fiercest just when God is about to manifest something big in your life. The enemy can almost see you reaching that point, leaping over him into victory.

That’s why the enemy trembles. He knows that he’s already defeated. His only strategy now is to flood you with fear, hoping you’ll forget who stands beside you.

You may be standing very close to your promised land. Hold onto God’s promise over your life and very soon you will see those victories manifest in your life. In this season, know your God, and know who you are in Him.

Too Busy to Pray? Here’s a Gentle Wake Up Call.

Too Busy to Pray? Here’s a Gentle Wake Up Call.

by | Oct 25, 2025 | Christian Walk

How has your prayer life been lately? Have you been praying daily, or has it been a while since you last prayed? If it’s been some time, I have good news for you today — it’s never too late to start praying!

Please don’t condemn yourself if you haven’t been consistent in prayer. The Word of God csays “For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again…” (Proverbs 24:16). It’s okay if you missed many days, but today is the day to get back to it. His mercies are new every morning.

Prayer Isn’t Performance, It’s Relationship

Prayer is an intimate relationship where we commune to God. Sometimes we may feel like we run out of words. Other times, we come with a long list of needs. But here’s the truth — prayer isn’t about performance or perfection. It’s not a checklist or a ritual.

Instead, it’s a daily conversation, sometimes full of words, sometimes filled with silence. But always sacred. Always fully depending on Him, His Word, His voice, and His guidance.

Prioritize daily conversations with God, not just speaking, but listening too. Let your relationship with Him come before everything else.

Daniel: A Life Set Apart by Prayer

Daniel had ungodly people around him and he served a king who did not believe in the one true God. Daniel was also a leader and he was definitely busy. Yet, he was found praying not once but three times a day. Which means, he intentionally set himself apart.

The Word of God says in Daniel 6:10-11, “Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before. Then these men went as a group and found Daniel praying and asking God for help.”

Imagine, Daniel heard the king’s decree that if he prayed he would be killed for it, yet he did not miss prayer! How often do we delay prayer because of work, distractions, or excuses?

If death didn’t stop Daniel from praying, what’s stopping us?

Start Now, God Is Just a Whisper Away

You don’t have to pray long, complicated prayers.

Here’s a simple way to begin:

“Hello, Daddy God. It’s been a while since I said hi…”

or

“Hey Dad… thank You for never leaving my side. You’re so good.”

That’s it. He’s waiting to hear from you; no pressure, just love.

When Everyone Is Getting Married But You

When Everyone Is Getting Married But You

by | Feb 23, 2025 | Dating & Relationships

Have you ever opened Facebook or Instagram and found your feed flooded with wedding photos? If you’re single, it can feel like everyone is getting married—except you.

I remember in 2020 when an old classmate asked about my life. She was shocked to hear I was still single. She told me that many of our classmates were married, and some were even expecting their first child. For a moment, I felt sad. But then I heard God gently remind me:“Don’t compare your season with someone else’s season.”

God spoke to my heart, explaining that I shouldn’t measure my life against others. He reminded me that earlier that year, He had called me to a season of singleness—a time to heal, grow, and prepare for marriage. Looking back, I realize that 2020 became a year of deep inner healing for me.

Discover why preparation in singleness is crucial for a strong, godly marriage. Learn how to embrace this season, heal, grow spiritually, and trust God's perfect timing.

Why Preparation Matters

You might wonder, “Why is inner healing so important?” Well, without it, the hurts from my past would have erupted like a volcano in my future marriage, causing unnecessary pain.

Many people think marriage will “fix” their wounds, but the truth is—marriage magnifies what’s already inside you. If you carry unhealed pain, it will surface sooner or later. That’s why God, in His wisdom, leads us into seasons of preparation before bringing us into a new season of blessing.

The Time to Prepare, Like Esther

“Prepare, prepare, prepare!” That’s what I kept hearing from God when I asked Him, “When will my marriage happen?” My pastor even told me a secret: You can ask God when your marriage will happen, and He’ll tell you.God revealed to me that I would be married in 2022. And time and time again, He confirmed it.

While waiting for marriage, it’s important to use this season of singleness wisely. We can take inspiration from Esther, who spent an entire year preparing herself before meeting the king.

The Bible tells us in Esther 2:12:“Before a young woman’s turn came to go in to King Xerxes, she had to complete twelve months of beauty treatments prescribed for the women, six months with oil of myrrh and six with perfumes and cosmetics.”

If Esther, a woman chosen by God for a royal purpose, had to undergo a season of preparation, how much more should we as women of God? Our preparation should go beyond external beauty to emotional, mental, and spiritual readiness.

Use This Time Wisely

Before God brings you into your next season, He prepares you in this one—embrace the process, for His timing is perfect.Here are some ways to use this time well:

✅ Deepen your relationship with God
✅ Learn to receive joy from God – to be content without your dependance on man.
✅ Heal from past wounds and disappointments
✅ Get involved in your church and serve
✅ Surround yourself with married and single friends who are spiritually mature
✅ Learn from godly marriages and hear teachings on it

Remember, preparation now will lead to a stronger, healthier marriage later. Instead of focusing on when it will happen, focus on who you are becoming.


God’s timing is perfect, and when your season arrives, you’ll be ready for it.

XOXO,

Never Do This

Never Do This

by | Oct 5, 2024 | Christian Walk

Yes, you heard me right—never compare yourself to someone else, especially those you see on social media.

I remember when I was single, I would often look at beautiful photos of a girl who regularly posted on Instagram. She lived in a foreign country, had a boyfriend, and traveled to amazing places. I remember telling my friend, “Look how happy she is! She’s living her best life and has found the perfect partner.” My friend quickly responded, “Don’t be deceived by what you see on Instagram. My husband met them, and she constantly argues with her boyfriend. She’s not happy at all.”

I was shocked. It made me realize that no one posts their struggles on social media. Everyone shows only the good parts of their lives. They don’t reveal the fights, the depression, the loneliness, the issues—they just post a picture that tells a different story.

And here we are, thinking their life is perfect. Funny, isn’t it? 😄

Comparing

Never Do This

Comparing yourself to others robs you of the joy of what you have and what God is doing in your life. It makes you think others have it better. You’ve probably heard the saying, “The grass is greener on the other side.”


But God calls those who compare themselves unwise. In 2 Corinthians 10:12 (AMP), it says, “When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding and behave unwisely.”


Let me tell you this: you are God’s best. He chose you to live an incredible adventure. Whether in public or in private, you are called to experience His fullness and joy. The best way to do that is by focusing on your own journey and what God has called you to do.

When you prioritize your relationship with God, you will witness His goodness. The joy that comes from that relationship is incomparable to anything the world can offer.

There will be moments when even your phone can’t capture the  joy you feel when you are in His presence.

Trust God!
Remember Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Hold on to this promise. God never breaks His promise!
