Billy Graham (1918 - 2018)

And as it is appointed unto men once to die...  
- Hebrews 8:27

Last night, I heard the news of the passing away of the great evangelist Billy Graham, indeed He was great as God used him to do great things. Evangelist Billy has a popular saying that "My Home is in Heaven. I'm just passing through this world."


Evangelist Billy was known for his enormous and vigorous evangelistic journey round the world. At a very small age, He has started witnessing to people. He knew very well that someday he will die, therefore he has to do the will of the Father on this earth. 

There are notable lessons to learnt from Evangelist Billy Graham's life on earth;

One sure thing is this: we will all die someday. What do you want to be remembered for? What impact would you have made on humanity when you die? Every action we do should reflect where we believe we are going to after death. It is appointed for humans to die once, after than is judgement. 

Stop living life carelessly, there is a purpose for your existence on this earth, not just a generalised purpose but a specific purpose for you. We are called to win Souls from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light...  

Don't live a wayward life because there we will be rewarded for how we lived our lives, good or bad.

Folks are talking good of Evangelist Billy brcause of his commitment and dedication to the things of God. In like manner, let us be committed to the work in God's Kingdom. 


I pray at the end of our lives on this earth, we will not be an outcast. We will all live a meaningful life here in earth.

Good Morning and a beautiful Thursday to you...

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

If Men Were God

He sends  rain  on the just and on the unjust. - Matthew 5:44 It's raining as I type this post and I remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:45 where he talks about  God sending the rain on both the just and unjust. God won't because are a sinner or a bad personal withdraw the rain from Falling on your side. One special trait we are to emulate from God is that we should not discriminate. If men were God, the rain will be raining only on the good, the sun will be shinning only on the perfect. We humans readily discriminate, we isolate those we feel are not perfect or good. We see those who have sinned as been candidates of hell as if we haven't sinned before. One major problem of our society is discrimination. Even in church, we discriminate, we see that prostitute and we readily condemned her. We readily forget that as children of God, we don't just do good to good people, we are to do good to everybody. It doesn't matter how bad a person might be, you ...
