I just love the way Jesus, who is the very word of God, spoke. He never needed to say alot. Each of his utterances were loaded. Big volumes of books have been written from single portions of scripture supported by other scriptures.

Beloved, Jesus never needed to say, be organized, protect what is yours, be transparent and yet cautious. Ensure everything is in the right place, never allow access to you anyhow and anytime.

Jesus only needed to say YOU ARE A CITY on a hill. He never said you are a village, or a comboni but a city. Now to understand him better, take a drive back in history, in the era and culture Jesus lived in.

1. Cities were organized.
2. Cities had gates, several gates which were guarded and closed and opened only on particular times.
3. Cities were built with enemies in mind; preparing for any possible attacks. This is why they were fortified with huge walls around them.
4. Cities were transactional. They always had traders coming in and going out.

Are you really a City? And one built on a hill for that matter?

If you are, then where are your walls? How about watchmen at the gates? What transactions are you known for? How organised is your CBD? How do you manage your waste? Is there a designated place for it?

Before we, by God's grace,step into the 2nd month of 2025, let us ensure we qualify for the status of being considered a City.

A gratitude filled day to you all even as we bid farewell to chapter 1 of this year.

Walking is lifting and setting down your feet in turn. While one foot is behind the other goes in front. Repeating this process in turn helps us to MOVE from one point to the other PURPOSEFULLY.

Ukwenda wemutemwikwa nipachalo. We walk on earth. You only lift one foot and suspend it in the air ahead of the other while the other foot still waits on the ground - the earth.

When the bible in Genesis 5:22,24 says, "Enock walked with God," it is saying to us, Enock lived, made progress, went about his business on earth with God.

Ifyaba Pa Chalo efingi. Abantu baba pa Chalo. You are not the only one who is surrounded with impossible, carefree, ungrateful, abatani, abanang'ani, abakaso, abamufulo and every other sort. We are on earth. We walk on earth. We make progress by lifting one leg while the other remain on earth. Ukwenda munyina nipa Chalo. Just in the chapter that follows, God regrets having made man (Gen 6:6). These wicked people never became wicked overnight. Even when Enock was walking with God they were busy being wicked. Infact Noah is Great grandson also walked with God (Gen. 6:9). In the midst of wickedness, he walked with God.

Make up your mind beloved to take every step in your life with God. It will never be easy and yet, it is always worth it.

I love watching babies' first steps. No baby says, 'lelo mwebantu nalaenda so remove for me everything in the way so that I do not bump into them and fall.' The baby just gets up and puts one foot in front of the other joyfully, without minding whose clapping or not, whose watching or not. Naiwe ima wende my friend. Tatwatote but ima. Tatwakumone nomba ima. Twalaseka but rise up friend and make up your mind and walk with God.

Thank you if you have heard.

Good morning 🙏

When the bible says, "A fool says in his heart there is no God," it is not talking about a person who SAYS with his mouth, "there is no God."

When you read Psalm 14:1 and 53:1 you will notice that the bible does not mention saying with the mouth but saying WITH THE HEART.

What you say with your heart, the world does not know. You may be found with those who believe in God and yet your heart denies his existence.

But why was a strong word used against such people? Romans 10:10 says, "with the heart we believe unto righteousness." Yesu nao aebati, you are BLESSED if you believe without seeing - John 20:29. No one has ever seen God. Therefore those who believe he exists are blessed - Hebrews 11:6.

It is also a known fact that what you believe in your heart affects how you act and react in your day to day life.

Remember! Though actions may confirm the tag, the world will never hear these fools saying I am one; until that day when God himself shall separate the wheat from the tares.

A restful day to you all. 🙏
