Psalms 1 - 41

To some Psalms (instruments used during the singing of the worship) is described as bible within bible. A collection of songs of praise written over a period of 1000 years - from Moses to David. Quoted the most in the NT and the OT. For it exposes our hearts and the innest thoughts and feelings that brew as we profess our Lord and Saviour.

Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice in trembling. For the Lord our God is majestic. He needs to hounored for he's our refuge and not forget our righteous acts. For we beg God not to punish us in his anger. For cursed is the man who falls in the hand of the living God.

For we need to trust in God's unfailing love and rejoice in his salvation.  For the fool says there's no God. Yet their wickeness will be shown for what it is. For sometimes we feel oppressed from every side. We feel anger brewing in my heart. We're troubled and weak because of the beatings of life. But the Lord is our deliverer, our refuge for the Lord is not far off to save and deliver. Then we shall praise him and exalt his holy name to the nations. For the Lord is my rock.

For the Lord is my Saviour, sheperd and Sovereign King. (Ps 22, 23, 24)

For the Lord alone is the true king. We shall find the mighty king of glory and honour. He is the king of glory. My hope needs to be on Lord all day long. Please Oh lord, don't remember my sins of youth; of my rebelion. Forgive my sins and instruct me in your ways that I may continuously find favour in the eyes of the Lord.

That I may dwell in the house of the Lord for all the days of my life that he may rescue me besides my own father and mother. For the Lord his shelter I only need but wait for Him.

My heart leaps for joy for the Lord is my Saviour and dwells in my heart. The voice of the Lord is majestic and the voice of the Lord needs to be reverred (Ps 29)

His anger last for a moment but his grace last for a lifetime (Ps 30)

Blessed is he whose sin are forgiven for we need to pray to God while you may be found(Ps 32).

Sing with joy and make music to him and sing to him a new song for the Lord loves righteousness and justice. No king is saved by the size of its army. (Ps 33)

Taste and see that the Lord is good. For the fear of the Lord is taught through us keeping from doing evil. (Ps 34)

Even on our bed we plot evil yet God preserves both men and beast (Ps 36)

For like grass they will soon whither but trust in the Lord and the meek will inherit the land. We only need to wait a little while. Better the little the righteous have and the plenty of the wicked. For even a rigteous steps are made firm he might stumble but he doesn't fall. The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord.(Ps 37)
Let me know how fleeting is my life. Each man's life is but a breath (Ps 39)

The law is within my heart. (Ps 40)

My trip back to Europe in ONE word (Part 1/2) - Coronavirus

It was a normal working day on a hot and usually dusty afternoon in Yaounde when I got the call to come and collect my Visa for my upcoming trip to Italy. I was elated. It had been 17 years since I had last seen my foster aunts and cousins. I was beside myself.  I distinctly remember my trip back to wish my father goodbye and how emotional I was because I knew that somehow I will not see him for a long while. I remember the bus trip back to Yaounde and how surreal it all felt (especially since there was a job interview lined up in Munich).   Me on the bus (in the middle of nowhere) on my way back to Yaounde. Clearly I was too excited to sleep (like someone next to me). I was already missing my lovely Cameroon. On the news, the coronavirus (covid-19) was beginning to show its ugly head in Italy and various other neighbouring countries. My aunt even told me to postpone my trip, but it was too late. I was already packed. Don't mess with a black man and his luggage! Me, mysel...

Times of refreshing

What a weekend that has just gone past! The single's ministry saw two men getting baptised on Sunday after church! What a rush!!! I had never dealt with two people baptising at the same time. Truly the bible is true when it says that "repentance brings times of refreshing". Seeing the excitement in those guys faces made me realise how blessed we are at having being "fished out" of the water at such an early age (I was 18 and my wife 14). Through his grace, I've experienced much love and much pain in his kingdom yet through it all, knowing that His Spirit can continue to guide me as long as I stay close to him. The crazy thing about yesterday was the realization that God is definitely moving amongst the churches all around Southern Africa and it felt really good to know we were making news (although small in comparison) of our own. There was almost a sense of disbelief among those who have been doubting whether God can still do miracles. My prayer and hop...

Proverbs 1 - The dangers of Foolishness

I was reading this scripture this morning and i couldn't help feeling that I often act like this person. Thinking that I don't have to study my bible and put it into practice is compared to someone laughing at you when trouble comes to your life. It sounds cruel but God's standard was never meant to make us 'feel' good. 26 I also jwill laugh at your calamity; I will mock when kterror strikes you, 27 when terror strikes you like la storm and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you. 28 mThen they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me. 29 Because they chated knowledge and ndid not choose the fear of the Lord,
