Describe a man who has positively impacted your life.
Jesus has given me life. A life with meaning. I’m not just getting by day by day. I am experiencing peace, joy and a love so tangible and strong that I almost feel like I can’t escape it! It’s like I’m trapped, imprisoned by His love, grace and mercy everyday! I’m not worthy of this love Lord! 😭 thank you so much my Saviour, friend and King 👑 ~ I always pray that this declaration is hidden in the depths of my heart and that my life reflects His Lordship and Love. ❤️
If you’d like to know more about Jesus, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
I’ve always felt like I need to belong..to fit in with culture..to be liked, admired by everyone because this was my source of validation ~ This is what gave me confidence. This is what blocked the feelings of loneliness and low self-esteem.
Now I’m a Christian ~ I belong to God, I can find rest in the presence of my Heavenly Father ~through the blood of Jesus I am redeemed! Born again not of sinners blood, nor of the flesh [natural conception], nor of the will of sin-stricken man but by the very desire of God (John 1:13).
But for some strange reason, my belonging to God hasn’t felt enough. And then I heard the Holy Spirit whisper to my heart 🕊️
“It’s because you’re still living. To live is Christ, to die is gain”
By living I was dying for the approval of man; ensnared in fear by the thoughts of friends, family members that I couldn’t even know. I can’t read minds! 😭 ~ this was my god and I couldn’t seem to work my way into his good book.
💡 Then I realised, my self worth was dependent on myself; I was working in the flesh to appease the idol and lust for approval in my heart❤️🩹: mastering different personas like an actor. Tinkering and refining my character to everyone’s liking whilst my true self lay dormant 😴
Jesus says I’m a new creation in Him. Old things have passed away (2 Corinthians 5:17). My worth comes from Jesus ***He saw my worth, your worth and put His life on it. – For the Joy set before Him ~ Oh the Joy of reconciling us back to our Maker, He endured the cross!✝️ (Hebrews 12:2). That’s how much I’m worth and the same applies to you my friend.
MY WORTH WAS GIVEN, NOT EARNED
My worth was given to me freely on the Cross, not earned by striving to receive approval from insatiable souls, filling the void of my insecure soul with vapour – empty words that don’t carry weight – always needing more praise from others to affirm my greatness, self worth.
He destroyed Himself for us to give His worth, His Life, His Love, His Approval, His Peace, His Joy…. I could go on and on because I have an eternity to get to know Him
And that’s beautiful
Isaiah 53:3-5 NKJV
(side note: before you read the following verses, replace the word ‘He’ with Jesus)
“He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.”
Do you know Him?
Does He know you?
God is saying: DEPART FROM SIN, OR DEPART FROM ME
Decision. The time is now. Tomorrow is not promised. Today, while there’s breath in your lungs – the Lord is showing you mercy – you don’t know the breath in your lungs is God revealing that He is long-suffering, crying to have fellowship with you, to fill you with His Holy Spirit ~ not wishing that you should perish but that you come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).
A full 180 turning away from your sin. And to put your faith in Jesus, who died to account for our sins – which is rendering you guilty before the court room of Heaven
But Jesus bailed us out! He paid our fine! You just have to receive this free gift
Today is the day of salvation because tomorrow is promised to no man.
Jesus has saved me from depression, pornography addiction, guilt and shame. These things were destroying my mental heath, my perception of woman, men and killing my self-worth.
He really does save those who realise they need saving. And I’m praying you’re realising this now too.
If you sense that tugging on your heart. It’s God calling you! He wants to rescue your soul from entering eternal fire.
Do you know there are millions of people burning in Hell, starting their prayer life and repenting from sin but it’s too late for them. It’s not to late for you if your reading this! He is warning you because He loves you
God loves you. God loves you. God loves you
Romans 5:8 NKJV
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

***little side thought: even as you were reading from these asterisks, I wanted to come up with a cool motto to pride myself in; for my glory but there’s something simpler yet more powerful in the name of Jesus! He is deserving of all glory and one day I pray you will bow before Him and declare He is Lord in joy and not fear in Jesus name! Amen
I believe that Jesus died on the Cross for my sins and that you rose him again on third day. Please forgive me for my sins.
Thank you for dying for my sins on the cross. I receive your forgiveness.
I pray that you will empower me to walk in holiness and righteousness. I ask that you may fill me up with your Holy Spirit.
I declare now that I am a born-again Child of God. I am free from the power of sin and full of the righteousness of God. Thank you, Jesus, for saving my soul. I am yours and you are mine in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Brief note: Hey there, I really do want to emphasise this: Please don’t put your trust in this prayer to save you. The grace and mercy of Jesus Christ has saved you. This prayer is merely the avenue for you to accept what He has done for you and I. Also, you need to mean this. It’s a matter of life and death, heaven and hell, eternal joy and eternal flame. God bless you in Jesus name and may God keep you firm in your decision to trust wholeheartedly in Jesus Christ until the day we see Him face to face! Amen.
If you said that prayer with belief in your heart, you are now a child of the most high!
Praise the Lord!
Heaven is rejoicing over the decision you have just made!
Now we must repent daily (turn from our sins to God) and strive to follow Jesus wholeheartedly as a response to his death for our liberty. We are now free from the power Sin had to condemn us to a deserved eternal punishment in Hell! Praise the Lord. We are now in right standing with God! We are now restored to the purpose for our existence: A relationship with God!
Also, God has a perfect plan for your life, that will bring Him glory and satisfy your soul’s longing for purpose and identity!
Tips that will help you on your journey with Christ:
⁃ pray daily
⁃ Start reading the bible (preferably start with Romans ch 5-8 to consolidate your understanding of what Jesus dying truly means for us and the gospels books which are Matthew, Mark, Luke and John)
⁃ Find a Christ preached church (Ask God to lead you)
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy spirit be with you all. Amen.

This won’t make sense to some. Even me, I don’t feel like I fully comprehend what your reading right now. But vulnerability is something I’m trying to embrace. This is an invitation into my consciousness, my desire to see others saved and see my soul saved. I hope you can see God and feel His presence in this in Jesus name. God bless ❤️✝️
*Preaching to others:*
Please don’t go back
Every breath is His mercy
Don’t waste your breath
Breathe for Him. Live for Him. Get to know Him.
Him who died, is now alive in I and wants to speak to Y O U. He wants to make you whole.
Beauty for ashes, Joy for mourning, A new beginning
The beginning of forever-after – the story with no end and continues getting better:
“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”
John 17:3 NKJV
The Spirit of the Lord has drawn you here – this is no accident. A divine appointment to destiny. Life-giving, soul quenching………
*In the meantime, my soul o my soul o my soul longs for Him* :
🗣️I’m thirsty give me a drink! I want your ❤️ follow the king. He’ll lead me to green pastures – restored for revival – no more fear or condemnation- I’m speaking the bible. My words cutting deeper than a two- double edged sword – exposing the spirit inhabiting your heart: Christ or Antichrist?
Gods Spirit 🕊️:
Who will rise by sinking deep? Who will change the world and not world the change? My people who are called by name. They will humble themselves. Seek my face
I WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND HEAL THEIR LAND
My soul 🗣️: But I just want to understand you and know You more. More. Flesh shut up! Spirit will lead me. Follow the King.
Gods Spirit 🕊️:
At the end of the day. There is one principal thing: Know Jesus. And then My child, you will make Him known. I love you.
Jesus I need you. I’m a sinner. I’m fake. I’m meant to be Your son. And yet you declare over me ‘A royal priesthood, a holy nation, set apart for such a time as this!. Anointed, Courageous, Bold, empowered by your Holy Spirit. So loved by you! Thank you for being so kind to me. i know i owe you my life but sometimes i’m scared to surrender what i am, all i have; to give it away. But i know it is better in your hands, when I give it to you. Please help me to surrender my desires to your will and remind me that I have a part to play in this too. In Jesus name I pray,
Today I’m deciding to loose the person I wanted you to be to me. This lustful, vain and self-centred imagination was keeping me in bondage. I love you just the way you are. The world needs to see your greatness, for Gods glory. I idolised You. You were my motivation for getting up in the morning. You were my joy, my love. You were my infatuation.
But you held me back from True Love.
Greater love has no man than this: That he lays down his life for his friend. (John 15:13)
I wanted you for myself. But a greater Love is consuming me. Like a blazing fire. It won’t go out. His eyes of fire light up my soul.
Now you let go of me!
It’s is for freedom Christ has set me free
Let me go!
Let me go in Jesus name!
I’m done holding you in high esteem.
There is a King seated on His throne. And His throne is my heart. And you guessed it: His name is Jesus Christ
That doesn’t even make sense but you know what I mean
Forgive me for my sins. Cleanse me from my iniquity. I want to sing of your Goodness, that leads me to repentance.
Sometimes I just want this whole ‘life’ to be over. Want to be in Heaven with You already. I don’t know if that’s love or selfishness cause I know there’s much work to do for your Kingdom 👑 .
I will prophecy in Jesus name!
I will be bold in Jesus name! 🦁Persecution is coming – Don’t want to deny you 😫 I love you LORD, I really do. I’m just a broken vessel that needs you every day.
But I’m sinning still and losing my ways. LORD, do you hear me? Have mercy please.
I don’t want to strive to be perfect any more. I want to fix my eyes on You. The Perfecter and Author of my faith.
THY KINGDOM COME AND THY WILL BE DONE IN ME. AMEN 🙏
God:
I open doors that no man can shut. I close doors that no man can open. The door to My will is in your consecration. Set yourself apart to Me. Remove all distractions now! I miss your presence my child! I miss the way you would cry out to me when you were in the fire, Or the time you spent sitting at my feet, being still in my presence. I can see your burdened down by the weight of this calling. Humble yourself under my mighty hand. Cast your cares on me. I will sustain you. Take some time of social media and come away into my presence. Where you will be restored, revived and ready to do my will. I’ve got so much in store for you my child. I can’t wait to see my story unfold in your life.
broken, hidden, emerge ✝️
