Hi, and welcome back. Last time I shared with you about a traumatic experience I had at a creative seminar I attended. On that day, I realised that I no longer had any dreams, and that hope had been banished from my heart. Everything came crashing down; I was in shock. How had I let myself get into such a mess? I asked Holy Spirit that question, and He told me that I had been living in ‘survival mode’. Everything I did was subconsciously designed with the aim of just surviv

I remember feeling sick. A stone lay in the pit of my stomach, along with a sense of immense panic. What was wrong? Why couldn’t I do it? I was at a creative workshop, in a session focused on the power of our imagination and our ability to dream with God. The speaker used an analogy based on C S Lewis’s book “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”, brilliantly brought to our screens in the Chronicles of Narnia films. In the film, a large wardrobe was the doorway that led to a

Today, we bring to a close the theme of ‘Free to Be Me’. The process of understanding who we truly are, who God created us to be, is a long one. However, it is so wonderful when you get to the stage when you are able to say that you not only love who you are, but you actually like  yourself too! For many, many years, I couldn’t say that. I didn’t like myself. I sort of loved myself, because I was told that, if you’re a Christian, you must love yourself, otherwise you’re rejec

A new year begins. It's like opening a brand new journal. The fresh new pages waiting to be written in. What will this year bring? The word that I woke up with on the 1st of January was. Intentional The dictionary definition - To be intentional means to act with purpose, making deliberate choices and conscious decisions that align with your values, goals, and desired outcomes, rather than just letting things happen to you.   I want to live this life intentionally. To stop and

When I was praying about this new year, Holy Spirit gave me the word 'streamline'.  In my experience, as Christians, we tend to get very caught up in 'the new things' that God is doing in our lives, based on that amazing scripture in Isaiah 43:19, 'Behold, I will do a new thing; now it will spring forth.'  Our hearts want to embrace the new things, to serve God more, to be a better version of ourselves, to get a new vision and do even greater things. Those are all good things

What is God Doing? Almighty God will draw his people closer and secure our position in His Kingdom. He is maturing the Saints and moving us into position faster than we thought and in ways we never imagined. The maturing will seem to happen overnight, and for many, that will be the case, as the things that have held us back will suddenly be removed. The last piece of the puzzle will be placed, and the picture will suddenly be revealed. This year will be known as the year we,

We have entered the Hebrew year 5786, aligning with 2026. The number six is represented by the Hebrew letter vav—visually represented as a hook, peg, or connector. It is also the connecting word “and,” a joining point between what was and what is coming. But not every connection is meant to continue. Six is the number of man (Genesis 1:26–31), signalling a year where God works through people, partnerships, and alignment. This will be a year of divine connections—but also divi

Stop looking backwards, start looking forward.   Recently, I have spent a lot of time looking back in time. I am a historian, so that is where my natural gaze goes. There is value in looking back, remembering what God has done, and celebrating his goodness. We share our testimonies of God’s actions in our lives to encourage each other to do it again in his power and favour. We also look back in order to examine ourselves. We look to see whether we have anyone to forgive, or t

Do you ever listen to what you say in your heart, to yourself? Have you noticed that throughout the day, you make statements about yourself? Let me give you an example: “I am exhausted.” Saying this when you feel tired can make it so and bring your mind, heart, soul, and body into agreement with that statement. You give in to it, submit to it, and reinforce it. Yes, for many of us, this is a reality of our lives, with all its pressures, expectations, and demands, and yes, we

So, now that you know a bit more about spiritual seasons, let me ask you this: Do you know what season you’re in right now? Do you know what your heavenly Father is doing in your life at this time? If you’re still not sure, ask Him. You might not get a quick answer, but don’t worry, that’s not a problem; in fact, it’s part of the process. Father loves it when we ‘press into Him’ for the next piece of the puzzle, talking with Him as we journey. Our walk with Him is full of my

Hi! We’ve been talking about different seasons in our lives, and in my last blog, I spoke about the parallels we can draw in our spiritual lives with the agricultural seasons. Last time, we discussed ploughing and planting, and this week we’re looking at...   Waiting, weeding and watering So, once you’ve prepared (or ploughed) the soil of your heart and planted your seeds (invested time and energy), you move into the next phase: I call it ‘waiting, weeding and watering’. Ofte

Hi, and welcome back! We’re continuing our theme around seasons and, this week, we’re going to look into agricultural seasons and the spiritual lessons we can learn from them. Jesus often told stories with agricultural themes, possibly because the Jews in Bible times were an agriculturally based society, and they understood principles such as sowing and reaping, ploughing, planting and harvesting. However, most of us don’t have an agricultural background, therefore we could

This week, we’re going to continue looking at the subject of spiritual seasons, and specifically the question often asked: “Why do I need to know what season I’m in.” Simply put, the answer to that question is so that we can   partner with Holy Spirit . But let’s delve a bit deeper. A well-known and often quoted scripture when discussing seasons is 1 Chron 12:32 – “… the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do..”  This scripture

The hardest thing today When I had to walk away I simply could not stay Walking away is necessary I reached out day after day For us every day, I would pray I gave us every opportunity Walking away is necessary So, walk away, walk away We've nothing more to say There's no more aces to play Walking away is healthy Daily asking the question why But getting not one reply For us, my heart does cry Walking away is necessary So, walk away, walk away We've nothing more to say There'

Music isn’t just sound — it’s spiritual power. From the moment of creation to the prophetic worship of David’s Tabernacle, the Bible reveals music as one of Heaven’s most potent forces. If you’ve ever wondered why music moves you so deeply — or what role creativity plays in God’s design — this is for you. In this video, we explore how music: Shaped creation itself (Job 38:7) Invited God’s presence through prophecy (1 Samuel 10, 2 Kings 3:15 ) Became the frontline of spiritual
