  January, the first month of the year, is a season of reflection and direction. It is a time when we ask ourselves important questions: What are my plans for this year? What do I intend to achieve? Where is my life headed? Do you have your plans written down, or are you hoping to drift into success by chance? Surely, repeating the same habits, the same decisions, and the same patterns from last year cannot be the desire of anyone who truly wants growth. Yet, the truth remains: if there is no clear plan, life often recycles itself. A new year without a new direction easily becomes a continuation of the old life. As believers, the beginning of a new year should not only mark a change in calendar, but a renewal of covenant—between us and God, and between us and our purpose. God is always ready to do a new thing, but He expects us to prepare ourselves to receive it. One of the most important questions we must ask ourselves is this: What attitudes, behaviors, and character traits d...

  Light of the World By Nasarah Peter Dashe Can you light a candle and then hide it under a cover? Absolutely not — because if you cover it, the purpose of lighting it is defeated. A candle is meant to shine, to be seen, and to drive away darkness . This is exactly what Jesus meant when He called us the light of the world . If you are in Christ, it is mandatory — not optional — to let your light shine so that the world will know whom you believe in. And when you shine, you lead many into the knowledge of Christ. Light in a Dark World Imagine walking through a deep, dark forest with a torchlight in your hand. Will you continue walking in darkness, or will you switch on the light? Of course, you will turn it on. That is how this world is — full of darkness, full of evil, full of confusion. And you, as a believer, are holding a spiritual torchlight. You must turn on the light of the gospel to illuminate others and draw them into the waiting arms of Jesus Christ. When ...

  Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child: A Hidden Mystery in Parenting By Nasarah Peter Dashe There’s an old saying taken from the Bible: “Spare the rod and spoil the child.” Yet today, many parents — blinded by modern opinions — are unknowingly destroying their own children with over-pampering . We live in a generation where some parents equate discipline with wickedness . While trying to be “kind,” they fail to correct, and in the end, that is the true wickedness. A Tale of Two Daughters A woman was being interviewed one day. When asked if anyone lived in her home aside from her nuclear family, she smiled and said yes — her husband’s cousin’s daughter Amanda, aged 15. She explained that Amanda had been living with them for almost seven years, ever since her mother died in an accident. Meanwhile, she had her own daughter, now 12. The interviewer leaned in and asked: “So between Amanda and your daughter, who helps you most with house chores?” Without hesitation, she repli...

Stay Faithful to Your Spouse By Nasarah Peter Dashe In 2015, a woman shared her painful but powerful story — a story that teaches all married people one thing: when pride enters a marriage, the devil doesn’t need to knock before walking in. She had been a faithful wife to her husband for many years. But one year, Satan took advantage of her anger and ignorance, and her home nearly crumbled. A Fight That Opened the Door It all began early that year — sometime between February and March. A simple disagreement between her and her husband grew into a fierce argument. Words became weapons. Silence replaced laughter. Days turned to weeks, and they could hardly talk to each other again. Meanwhile, her husband’s company had just secured a huge international contract. They were sending selected workers abroad to handle it. The company gave clear instructions: “If you have a wife and children, take them with you. If you’re single, you may take your fiancée.” Her husband was among tho...

  Singles, Do What You Are Supposed to Do — the Marriage Will Come By Nasarah Peter Dashe Many young ladies and men today are desperately searching for life partners — but sadly, many are searching in the wrong direction. A wise man once said, “You can never fix a problem until you discover its root.” If we want to understand why so many struggle to marry or end up in broken relationships, we must go deeper than the surface. 1. The Lifestyle You Live While Single Matters Some ladies delay their own marriages without knowing it. The kind of life you live while single will either prepare you for marriage or push it farther away. Ask yourself: What kind of person am I when no one is watching? Many young women, out of pressure or desperation, make the mistake of giving their bodies to any man who promises marriage. But a wise lady keeps her dignity, because she knows that her value is not tied to a man’s approval. Any man who truly loves you will honor you, not rush you. The...
