The argument that Christianity is anti-African because it prohibits African spirituality practices is one that I have heard many times. However, as I have continued on my own journey of faith, I have come to realize that there is more to the commandment than meets the eye. It is too simplistic to conclude that Christianity is against Africans. In African Spirituality adversity is a sign of disobedience but in Christianity adversity could be a sign of obedience. Whenever God intends to bring his people in alignment with his will he allows adversity in their lives by breaking their will,because by default the will of human beings is hostile to his will. God allows adversity When I choose to explore the spiritual realm as prescribed in the Bible, the process of aligning my will with God's will began. I could either fight this, in which case I will never be who God created me to be, or I could cooperate with it and experience God's power on a personal level.. The commandment agains

Wisdom is the capacity to judge rightly in matters relating to life and conduct. Confucius, a Chinese philosopher, recommends three ways to acquire wisdom.He said, “By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.” I agree that this is a sensible recommendation when seeking human wisdom. However, I am on a journey of aligning my life with wisdom that is of a higher form than human wisdom. I believe that human wisdom has failed me, and I am now seeking wisdom that comes from above . I believe that this recommendation will not apply to my journey, as I am seeking wisdom that is beyond human understanding. Highest form of wisdom To align myself with the highest form of wisdom, I had to enter the spiritual realm where Jesus Christ reigns supreme. In this spiritual realm, alignment with wisdom is the result of putting all my trust in Jesus Christ rather than relying on human

It is often said that you should find what you are good at in order to find your calling. However, I have found this to be confusing, as I have loved doing different things at different stages of my life. I found my calling when I accepted my weaknesses, which is the opposite of what I have been taught all my life. When I realized that I am weak against the evil spiritual forces that are fighting for my attention, I humbled myself before the Creator and put my full trust in Him. Through this act of humility, He revealed my calling to me, which is something that I am not good at. However, it is now my responsibility to explore all available opportunities to improve my skills so that I can be good at it. Contrary to popular belief, my calling was revealed to me when I accepted my weaknesses and humbled myself before the Lord. I believe that this is the true path to finding your calling in life.

I was raised a Christian but as I grew up I thought Christianity had a narrow lens through which to interpret humanity's relationship to the great spiritual experience , and this is the reason I dabbled in New Age beliefs where I was taught practices like meditation and being one with nature to help my spiritual awakening. Spiritual Awakening is a call to higher consciousness and deeper mental awareness. The process of spiritual awakening brings about personal transformation and a shift in one’s worldview. When someone goes through a spiritual awakening they experience a shift in their mental framework. When I started applying my Christian faith through a relationship with the Creator rather than religion I then learnt that contrary to my previous beliefs there was no need for me to dabble into New Age beliefs and practices because when Christianity is applied as prescribed by the Scriptures it leads to spiritual awakening. Salvation brings spiritual enlightenment When I decided to

There is a popular saying that says Being humble is a sign of a great human being. I took this to mean I have to practice specific acts that demonstrate humility to be a great human, in other words I thought being humble is a consequence of practicing certain actions. In my case practicing humility is easier said than done, because it is not my default setting. These activities I practiced in my effort to be the best human being only resulted in false humility which was put on display when I was under pressure.I then quickly learnt that true humility is not consequence of specific practices it has to have its roots elsewhere TRUE HUMILITY If my goal is to be who God has created me to be, true humility is a must have trait, but as I had learnt it cannot be attained by practicing certain actions. In the spiritual realm where Jesus Christ is King i.e. Kingdom of God the source of true humility is the fear of God. Fear of God is the deep respect of God (of the Bible) it is not the same as

"Being good is not something you are, it is something you do," this was the foundation of my motto in my effort to be a good person.This comes from the belief that God requires me to do good in order for to regard me as a good person,but as I walk in this journey of faith I realize that God’s standard of goodness is a lot higher than I imagined and it cannot be attained through self effort. Good according to God ( of the Bible) I am regarded as a good person in God's eyes when all aspects of my life work in harmony to fulfill the good deeds he has planned in advance for my life. The knowledge of good deeds God has planned for me is only possible through divine guidance given by the Holy Spirit through Scriptures . To access the Holy Spirit I have to step into the spiritual domain where Jesus Christ is King,  this means that I cannot meet the standard of goodness according to God (of the Bible) in my self effort or when I am outside the Kingdom of God.Therefore to be reg

I grew up believing that my faith in the unseen God will grow when I see the evidence of his existence, this belief is the reason I was always on the lookout for miracles as evidence that God exists and he is in my life. My belief that seeing is believing requires evidence in the seen realm but this is in contradiction to the biblical faith which requires me to believe the unseen God before I experience his power in my life in the seen realm. Biblical faith Biblical faith requires me to have complete trust and belief in God (of the Bible) who is unseen. This kind of faith starts with the heart that believes in the Word of God and it is made perfect by Jesus Christ. Therefore to grow in my faith and to personally experience and see the power of the unseen God(of the bible) in my life I have to first believe that he exists and trust him completely without diluting him with other gods.

No human is limited is a belief that was the foundation of my life application because I believed any human being can go beyond their limits and no human being should be limited in their thoughts, in what he or she should be doing. I was convinced self-belief is crucial. But in truth and in reality as a human being walking on earth I have limits. It is not true that I am not limited and can do anything because this life on earth is influenced in the spiritual realm. Earthly life is influenced by the spiritual realm As a human being my life experience on earth is influenced in the spiritual realm either towards God(of the Bible) or away from him and by default I am influenced away from God (of the Bible). In his grace God has made it possible for me to opt in towards him through the Kingdom of God, a spiritual domain in which Jesus Christ reigns. The Kingdom of God is a spiritual realm domain that influences me towards God (of the Bible), it is a spiritual domain through which God inten
