Choosing to Walk With God—Here’s Why It’s Worth It

Choosing to Walk With God—Here’s Why It’s Worth It

by | Apr 15, 2025 | Christian Walk, Identity & Calling

“Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.” So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.” (John 4:39-40)

When the Samaritan woman had an encounter with Jesus, she went and told about Jesus to her whole town and brought them to Him. And when they came to Him, they urged Him to stay with them. And He stayed with them for two days.

For two days Samaria had the Living, Miracle working God in their midst. They had an opportunity that not many other people had.

 

Walk with God

When Embracing Turns Into Rejection

Later on, there came a point in the life of Jesus where He had to go to Jerusalem because the time had come for Jesus to lay His life down on the cross. And, He was flint focused towards fulfilling the purpose of His life.  The Bible says His face was set towards Jerusalem.

But in order for Jesus to reach Jerusalem He had to pass through Samaria. So, Jesus sent His disciples ahead of Him to a village of Samaria to make preparations for Him.

But this time the same Samaritans who once refused to let Jesus go, now refused to receive Him because His face was set for Jerusalem.

“Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem,  and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. But they did not receive Him, because His face was set for the journey to Jerusalem.” (Luke 9:51-53)

The first time the Samaritans encountered Jesus, they saw Him performing miracles and meeting their needs. But this time, they realized He was simply passing through. His destination, Jerusalem, was itself a point of deep contention as they considered Jerusalem not a place of worship. This stirred up their bitterness even more.

Please God or Man?

Child of God, when you make a decision to walk in your call and accomplish the purpose of God on your life, not many will accept or receive you. If they rejected Jesus who gave them the Living Word and did miracles among them, they will do it to you too.

Yet you need to live a life not to please man, but to please God. When you are facing situations or people in your family who do not accept your walk with God, don’t go to fight them. Instead you keep growing! That’s your key!

People will disappoint you, so it is better to serve God’s purpose in your generation. Keep upgrading yourself everyday because everything around you is upgrading itself. Keep growing in your identity and the right people will come chasing you. Your bosses will come chasing after you. Favour will come chasing after you.

When you keep growing the very people who are fighting you today will see your light shine bright and come to you.

God Has Gone Before You : Walk in Certainty

God Has Gone Before You : Walk in Certainty

by | Apr 5, 2025 | Christian Walk, Identity & Calling

Feelings of fear, doubt, and anxiety often take over when we’re uncertain about how a situation will unfold. We love a good adventure, but uncertainty? Not so much. When challenges arise, we crave certainty—something solid to hold on to, something that reassures us about what’s coming next.

But here’s the good news: God has gone before us. And He has already made a way.

“Do not be terrified or afraid. The Lord your God, who goes before you, He will fight for you.” – Deuteronomy 1:29-30

This verse has calmed my fears countless times. I have clung to it in moments of doubt, using it as a reminder that my certainty and trust must be in God.

But today, I want to share something even deeper with you—something that will transform how you understand what it means when God says, “I go before you.”

This truth will give you the confidence to walk with God boldly, knowing that He is always ahead of you, preparing the way.
uncertainty

God Has Gone Before Us Before

In Deuteronomy 1, we read about how the Israelites asked Moses to send twelve spies to scout the Promised Land. But when they heard the spies report, fear overtook them, and they refused to move forward.

“Where can we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our hearts, saying, ‘The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; moreover, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.’”– Deuteronomy 1:28

Sound familiar? Have you ever faced a challenge that seemed too big? A situation that made you feel too small, too weak, or too unqualified?

Maybe, like me, you’ve told God, “I can’t do this. You must have made a mistake choosing me.”

But here’s the truth: God has taken down giants before, and He will do it again for you.

The Proof That God Destroys Giants

Let’s look at what God had already done before the Israelites reached the Promised Land.

In Deuteronomy 2:4, we see that God gave the land of Seir to Esau’s descendants. Then, in Deuteronomy 2:9, He gave the land of Ar to Lot’s descendants.

What’s important to note is that both these lands were originally inhabited by giants—the Horites lived in Seir, and the Emim lived in Ar.

But what happened? God defeated the giants and gave those lands to His people.

Before the Israelites even faced the giants in Canaan, God had already proven that He was capable of delivering the land from the hands of giants. He had done it before, and He was ready to do it again.

Your Giant is Not Too Big for God

Your giant might not be a literal warrior standing in front of you, but it could be fear, financial struggles, health issues, exams, a job situation, family problems, or uncertainty about the future.

Whatever it is, tell your heart today:

“Be certain—God has gone before me. He has conquered giants before, and He will do it again.”

All we have to do is rise and cross over.

This year let’s walk in the certainty of God’s goodness. He has not made a mistake in choosing you for this assignment. You will fulfil it. You will cross over.

So go forward with confidence—God has already gone before you.

Do You Assume Too Much? The Hidden Power of Assumptions 💭🤼

Do You Assume Too Much? The Hidden Power of Assumptions 💭🤼

by | Mar 30, 2025 | Christian Walk, Leadership

Have you ever found yourself assuming things without knowing the facts or having proof? Your mind starts creating scenarios, and before you know it, you’re convinced they’re true—without any real evidence!

For example, imagine a friend doesn’t reply to your message. Instead of waiting patiently, you come up with ten different reasons why they’re ignoring you. 

Maybe they’re upset with me? Maybe I said something wrong? 

When, in reality, they could be sick, overwhelmed with work, or simply away from their phone.
assumptions

Or perhaps someone you used to talk to hasn’t kept in touch for a while. Instead of reaching out, your mind floods with doubts and assumptions about why they’re distant.

How Assumptions Can Harm Relationships

Assumptions are nothing but lies in our head conspired by our feelings, emotions, past history, scars or fears.

The power of assumption is dangerous; it can damage friendships by making you feel rejected or unimportant. It could also erode trust in relationships by making you suspicious or defensive. And, at its worst lead to unnecessary conflicts arising from misunderstandings.

One of the biggest relationship killers is assuming what others think about us based on how they act, speak, or treat us. Instead of seeking clarity, we let negative thoughts take root, leading to unnecessary tension.

 

Refuse To Let Negative Assumptions to Take Root

Don’t be too spiritual or too knowledgeable, when it comes to knowing the thoughts of people. Jesus is the only one who can discern the thoughts of people. But today we try to discern thoughts only in the negative way.

In Matthew 9:4 the Word of God says “Knowing their thoughts,Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?”. That shows we have the power to entertain bad thoughts in our hearts.

1 Peter 5:8-9: “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” .

To be sober-minded means not allowing emotions or fears to cloud your judgment. Before making assumptions, take a step back and ask yourself:

  • Is this really true?
  • Am I letting my emotions lead me?
  • Is there a better way to respond—like seeking clarity instead of assuming?

Instead of jumping to conclusions, choose peace and simply refuse to assume things.

Girls, This is What God Wants for You in This Season (And it’s Better Than Money or Influence!)

Girls, This is What God Wants for You in This Season (And it’s Better Than Money or Influence!)

by | Mar 17, 2025 | Christian Walk

We often find ourselves complaining about not having enough money, talent or influence. Most people wake up every morning thinking how they can get more money or grow their influence. Even their goals are based on that.

Girl, while money, talent and influence are all good, there is something better that you can work towards in this year, and that’s a GOOD HABIT!

good habit

Why is a good habit so important?

Throughout the Scripture we see God looking for something that we already carry so He can “take it over” to bring about a mighty victory.

Little Samuel had a habit of sitting and ministering before the ark (1 Sam 3:1). God saw that consistency and decided to “take it over”, and multiply it to feed a nation.

God spoke to him and called out his name and made him His messenger and Prophet to Israel (1 Sam 3:19).

David had a habit of writing psalms and singing them. Today we have a whole book of his psalms that the whole world is reading.

The same principle, unfortunately, also works when we have bad habits.

Samson had a bad habit of an uncontrollable longing to be with women. The enemy took that habit and worked through it to destroy God’s plan for his life.

Judas had a bad habit of putting his hand in the money box and taking what was not his. His life and ministry ended with that one bad habit (John 12:6).

Are bad habits the reason for delays in your life?

Many times we blame God for our failures and pray unceasingly for a breakthrough or promotion!

But, could our delays be because of some bad habits that we are not willing to break?

Psalm 32:9 says, “Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.”

That’s a person without a control switch; he is led by a bad habit.

So many people make big goals at the start of a new year. Can I encourage you this year to build at least 2 good habits that God can take over and use it for His glory.

God can take the good habit that you have developed and use it to open the heavens to rain down a blessing. This month put your heart and mind to develop a ‘good habit’ because God can take that habit and make it HIS ‘HABITATION’.

Unveiling the Power of Service + New Launch: Why The Devil Hates To See You Serve

Unveiling the Power of Service + New Launch: Why The Devil Hates To See You Serve

by | Feb 18, 2025 | Christian Walk, Healing & Freedom

In God’s kingdom, there are certain principles, which when activated brings the blessings of God on your life. One such principle that will bring kingdom exploits into your life is SERVICE. And the best thing about serving in the house of God is that you don’t need any special gifts or talents for it. Anyone can serve.

Because the devil knows that this is a principle that will cause you to reap exploits in your life, he twists it and makes it look bad so that you walk away from it.

“..Jesus, knowing that the Father had put everything into His hands, and that He had come from God and was [now] returning to God, got up from supper, took off His [outer] robe, and taking a [servant’s] towel, He tied it around His waist. Then He poured water into the basin and began washing the disciples’ feet and wiping them with the towel which was tied around His waist.” (John 13:3-5 AMP)

Jesus had the power to show off because He knew that the Father had put everything into His hands. But He shows it off by doing something very cool— He served!

He took off His outer garment and began to do the job of a servant. Washing someone’s feet was the job of the least of the servants. And this is what Jesus did. And this is the attitude God wants us to have.

What is service?

Service is God’s hidden power.

Service is love in action.

Service is seeing a need in the house of God and fulfilling it.

The House of God is His bride, His body and God holds it of great value. When you start serving in the House of God, you will learn what no seminar or Bible study can teach you.

Want to know more about how to serve in the House of God efficiently and with excellence? We have an exclusive ebook that will give you in depth understanding and insights into everything you need to know about serving in the House of God.

Written by Author Kim D’Souza, Why The Devil Hates To See You Serve will open your eyes to why the enemy fights the principle of serving. It will also show you how you can attract God’s favour and unlock hidden treasures in your life through service. Bonus! In this book, you will discover 10 principles of serving to help you serve efficiently in God’s house.

With this resource you will be fully equipped to serve in God’s house with the right heart and the right understanding.

These 2 Questions Will Ensure You See Your Promise Land This Year!

These 2 Questions Will Ensure You See Your Promise Land This Year!

by | Feb 5, 2025 | Christian Walk, Healing & Freedom

Hope your 2025 is off to a great start! Many of us are carrying the promises of God over our lives and working towards seeing them fulfilled in this year.

When Israel was at the verge of their promised land, God sent a Word to them encouraging them to go in and take the land. Israel was right at the gates of their promised land. But that generation, except Caleb, did not see the promised land because they chose to believe the report of man and not the promises of God. (Read Deuteronomy 1)

This year as you are believing to see the promises of God fulfilled over your life, there are 2 questions that you need to ask yourself often to ensure you don’t miss out on the promises of God this year.

promise land, 2025,Takeover,hear God

1. What Are You Speaking?

“They also took some of the fruit of the land in their hands and brought it down to us; and they brought back word to us, saying, ‘It is a good land which the LORD our God is giving us.’ “Nevertheless you would not go up, but rebelled against the command of the LORD your God; and you complained in your tents, and said, ‘Because the LORD hates us, He has brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.” (Deuteronomy 1:25-27 NKJV)

What kind of words come out of you when you come across a terrifying situation? Do you start grumbling and complaining or do you start rejoicing in the promise and fighting the good fight?

This year be willing to change your confession and be grateful for what God has given and promised you, regardless of what giant you see. Be intentional about declaring the promises of God no matter what your situations are speaking.

Remember, it is better to magnify God with your words than to magnify your problems. Because, what you magnify this year will be your anchor for the entire year.

For example, if God has promised you a house this year, don’t magnify how you don’t have the money or resources for it. Instead, declare the promises of God, and how He has provided for you in the past.

You having the promise depends ultimately on what you do now; what words you are declaring now!

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jer 29:11 NKJV)

2. What Are You Hearing?

“Where can we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our hearts, saying, “The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.” (Deuteronomy 1:28 NKJV)

The Lord had already told the people of Israel that the land is good and it is given to them. But the words of their brothers painted a wrong picture in the people’s heart. And the people were so filled with fear and refused to go because of the words of a few men.

They forgot about the picture God showed them a few verses before of how good the land is, and how they are to enter boldly and not be afraid. They chose the words of men over the promises of God.

“Yet in spite of this word you did not believe the Lord your God,” (Deuteronomy 1:32 ESV)

Words that you hear can either push you towards your destiny or separate you from your blessing.

In 2025, be careful of what words you allow in your ears. If you give ears to the fears and unbelief of others, their fear will become your fear and discourage you from entering into God’s promises over your life.

Let the promises of God be louder than any words of man in your life. As Author Kim D’Souza said, “Just as faith comes by hearing; fear also comes by hearing”. May we choose to hear His Word and believe Him above every wrong words of man.

3.How Do I Guard What I Hear and Speak?

One practical way you can walk in faith this year is to be found in the right company. Because even though the ten spies came back with a negative report there was a different group of Joshua and Caleb who came back with a good report.

Connect yourself to a spirit filled group who are walking by faith in the Word of God. If you don’t have one, stay connected to us at Soar Girls. We are a group of girls who have decided to take God at His Word despite what the world says. Come join us, and let’s soar in Christ this year!
