This whole month, I've been thinking about the concept of spiritual blindness....


And reflecting on several things around it...
How dangerous it is to walk in spiritual blindness.....

One of the biggest warnings Apostle Paul gave was on the dangers of walking in spiritual blindness....

1 Corinthians 9:26, NIV: "Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air."

Getting to know what is going on in the spiritual realm before setting off for physical activities should be one of the most important things.......
What happens in the spiritual realm affects what happens in the physical... 

Prayer, fasting and meditation on the Word of God are some of the most important things, one should do before embarking on anything....

This is one concept that was deeply ingrained in the African society before the Word of God came. 

In my journeys to Lake Turkana looking for fish - around 2008 and 2009,  I got to learn how deep some of the spiritual issues were... I interacted with several communities.... And discovered that in almost all, there was a clan of prophets and seers.... Right from the Sebei, the Pokot, the Turkana, the Merile and Borana...
I was amazed at how much power they had over affairs. At times you could not go to the lake for five days, waiting for directions from the seers...

Even among the Luos, many do not know why in every corner of Luo Nyanza, there are people from Alego... This is because many of the seers were from Alego, and before going to war  or capturing territory, the warriors had to wait for direction from the seers....

In short, what you see on the physical is just a  manifestation of what is going on in the spiritual realm......

Those who reign and succeed in life know this secret.... Those who fail or live average lives of struggling do not know this.....it's that simple...

The worst tragedy in life is to walk Fwaaa, shagalabagala......
That is why every morning,  i wake up early to seek out the direction from God. I wake up to ask for guidance, protection and provision....

Many times,  I've faced situations that look impossible... I have faced debts that look insurmountable... I've seen family crises that look devastating....

But as long as the I get the confirmation that it is well,  I usually sleep like a baby... And smile through storms...... Because I know the truth... And the storms, delays,  and waves can't shake my faith....

If you are facing a storm... Ask God to open your eyes.     Walk through the waves with confidence.. Knowing that He is faithful that promised....

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Mr. Riley was already there when they arrived, sitting on the sand, eyes closed in a deep meditation. He was shirtless, wearing camouflage-patterned shorts similar to the ones The Spellbinder styled the day he appeared on the beach and a pair of rubber diving booties with smiley face emojis scattered over them. You would have been more than amused if you saw him in them. An assistant rushed out of the billionaire’s home the instant he raised a hand toward the heavens, displaying the universal victory sign. Three crisp pages of paper were effic...

THE CROWN YOU CARRY: A Letter to My LOVELY Daughter FROM THE HEART OF A MOTHER

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life. You may not know it yet, but in those laughter-filled mornings and quiet evening chats, a legacy was passed on: not of gold or silver, but of values, vision, and virtue. Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...
