Exercise the Faith
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. James 2:17 (NIV) During the week, I asked God to help me with something. I’d been having issues with some pain and difficulties with certain actions so I thought to ask the Holy Spirit to help me. Now, usually,…

Podcast – Ep 1
In the first official episode of The ShineALight Podcast, we discuss knowing our lane. What’s your lane? At times we get overwhelmed and feel under valued because we fail to look at our path and focus on what we’ve been called to do. Have you ever felt this way? Share your thoughts below, and have…

Conviction & Sin
Hi Fam, How’ve we been? I hope we’ll all been good, and have had things to rejoice about despite the recent circumstances. I just wanted to drop in and briefly update. It’s been a long week for me so this post is sadly coming up late, which was not my intention but, sometimes, we have…
Holiday Blues
It’s early but perhaps the right time. As we navigate towards the holiday season, I know that maybe people may start to feel blue; to feel a little bit lonely and sad around. I often find it ironic that the holidays focus around a theme of family and fun but, we often forget those who…
Not a Sprint but a Marathon…
I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all. Ecclesiastes 9:11 (NIV) These past few weeks I’ve been…
Direction
Direction – the position towards which someone or something moves.1 Have you ever wanted to go somewhere, to achieve something but everytime you tried; you felt lost? You didn’t know:a) Where to gob) How to get there Ecclesiastes 10:15 (NKJV) says: The labor of fools wearies them, For they do not even know how to…
Why I’ve Been AWOL
Hi everyone, And… we’re back!! How have you all been? I hope you’ve all been good and been thriving?! It’s been a long few months but we are back now for good. I must say, I never expected to feel so out f touch when I took this break but looking forward to getting back…
Stakeholders in Faith
So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers criticized him and said, “You went into the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them.” Acts 11: 2-3 (NIV) When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, “So then, even to Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life.”…
Pay Attention
Only simpletons believe everything they’re told! The prudent carefully consider their steps. Proverbs 14:15 (NLT) How often have you heard, just do what I say?! Or just believe me? I came across this Bible verse earlier on in the week and it literally blew my mind. So, you’re telling me that God encourages us to…
If You’re in Need of Encouragement
Hi guys, I’ve been struggling with what to post about, and really a lack of motivation so, please bear with me if posts are scarce right now. I’m having to really tap into my commitment tank to keep posting and sharing. I suppose the issue is that from what I’ve been learning, I’m not sure…
Diary of a 7-yr old
I started this blog because God called me to it. In my quiet time He told me that we have a responsibility to share the truth with others. The revelation you’ve received, you need to share it with others. And it took me two years from the time he told me that to the time…
Persistence – a KEY
Luke 11:5-9 (NIV) 5Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; 6 a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’ 7 And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother…
Interest | Commitment
1Interest, the feeling of wanting to know or learn about something or someone.2Commitment, the state or quality of being dedicated to a cause, activity, etc. These two words have been on my mind lately, kinda like a revelation. If you’ve been an OG reader of blog, you will know that one of my favourite podcasters…
Fear of Man
The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe. Proverbs 29:25 (NKJV) Wow! Today’s post is the equivalent of praying that God will speak to you then taking your Bible and opening to a random page, hoping that something will jump out at you. However, in this case,…
The Lord who Makes me Holy
If you remember, a few years ago, I published a blog post regarding the Law and grace, now I don’t know about you but have you ever fallen down the rabbit hole of thinking you have to be a certain way for God to accept you? And that you have to do certain things to…
God – The Strategist
Numbers 10:1-21 (NIV) 13 When the people set out for the first time, following the instructions the Lord had given through Moses, 14 Judah’s troops led the way. They marched behind their banner, and their leader was Nahshon son of Amminadab. 15 They were joined by the troops of the tribe of Issachar, led by Nethanel son of Zuar, 16 and…
Consecration
As we hear the cry for revival rise throughout the world following this pandemic, and heed to it, we must not only focus on revival but, personal revival; and with that comes the need for consecration. Reading through Exodus, we not only learn about God’s love and desire for His people, but also how we…
Song of the Week
Now, this wasn’t the post that was originally on my mind but, I’ve been thinking about doing something different so, I thought I should share my song of the week with you. These might not necessarily be ‘new’ songs but they’re songs that I’ve a) either been particularly into this weekb) just wanted to share…
