Compliments of the season to everyone! I hope you enjoyed Christmas with friends and family. I'm glad we were a blessing one way or the other to the people around us! Just a few hours into the new year and all over social media we can see the buzz about New year resolutions, letting bad habits go with 2015, new beginnings etc. They are not bad in themselves but are you trusting in your WILL POWER to see these things happen?? Deuteronomy 8:17-18(MSG) reminds us that it is God that gives us ABILITY to do/change/become; we cannot attain by ourselves and we must be very conscious of this. God is our help and He helps us through words/prophetic utterances from his Ministers. 2 Chronicles 20:20 And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. 201

Good day everyone all around the world, it’s so great to be writing to you again. I trust God that you are doing well and I pray that God’s wonder working power presides over your situations today as you focus on Jesus and put your trust in Him. Calvary greetings to you All…looool! Guess what? It’s Christmas time! Yaaay! Well, it is way past guessing, Christmas is already here and I can literally smell it in the air here in Abuja. There are a few things on my mind I would like to share about this season and how we respond to this time of the year and I’d like you to indulge me, read, and be blessed. Christmas is such an amazing time of gifts, family time, food, holiday and so on, it is such an amazing time; it’s a few days off work, to attend parties with lots of drinks and all, as we are generally in ‘party’ mood. Christmas is basically a fun time at the end of the year perfect for ‘chilling’…all these are not bad things to do or participate in but Christmas means a

Hi everyone, I know it has been a long time, I really missed posting on the blog and hearing from you guys but I'm back and I'll give you a peek into the wonderful time I had while I was away. November 29th to 6th December 2015 was CampMeeting at Savannah Ministries International themed "There is a Mighty Supply" and boy did we have a swell time in God's presence. All the Savannah churches from all across the world were fully represented, Pastors and ministers from other churches were present, worshipers from all over the country and beyond trooped in to enjoy the presence of God! It was truly an awesome time. I had several high points during CampMeeting and yes, I will share a few with you: 'Follow the promptings of your heart/Spirit in the daily routines and small tasks as he instructs you.' 'See the mighty supply by spending time in God's word.' - Rev. Dominic Gusah. That's how you experience the mighty supply of heaven. 'God

I’M FREE My eyes opened gently as I woke to the sounds of birds chirping and the gentle buzz of the morning, such a beautiful morning and it brought the coolness of rain along with it, the rain was welcome in the unabashed presence of the consistent sun and its heat in the days prior. I woke up with some sort of reluctance to another day, my mind wandered and all I could think of was the discomfort in my chest… I WAS STUCK! I was stuck was all I could think and all that came to my, albeit, creative mind and that was all I could say. I felt stuck. Not stuck in the way of a key in a bad or dysfunctional keyhole or stuck in a way of a disobedient latch to an old forgotten box of ideas and idiosyncrasies or in how annoying it is when your finger is trapped in the neck of a bottle or even in how your flannel shirt hooks to your earring as you flipped it over your head to wear it…no, not in that way! But stuck as a traveler well on his way knowing his destination and well travel

I saw this picture of a lady who was multitasking with about 6 arms doing different things at the same time, all of which required maximum attention…I must add. This picture was sent to a body of women celebrating them for their strength and multitasking abilities which in itself is amazing, and one of the ladies’ response was and I quote “several times I wished I had 6 hands then I am reminded that I am graced to do even much more…” Wow…this struck a chord in my heart and I was amazed at how we easily tilt to a picture of self aggrandizement rather that what the gospel says about us. Women in general are laden with so many responsibilities; financial, domestic, motivational and even economic responsibilities and the expectation is that they must carry out these responsibilities seamlessly without a hair out of place…looking like you waltzed out of a celebrity magazine or off the red carpet of some high profile social event. If you’re a lady reading this you might be saying ‘

Hello everyone, I know it has been a while I posted on the blog and I understand that you miss me...lol, I miss you too. I have been busy with the just concluded Savannah Virtuous Ladies Convention. I truly apologize and I promise to post regularly from now on. I will also do a post on the highlights of that event...we had an amazing time in God's presence. Today makes it one year that my Grand Ma went home to be with the Lord. Words cannot express how much I miss her; all the things she did for us like sending okpehe (local seasoning), fish and herbs to us and how she took care of us. She was such an amazing woman with her gentle words and ever increasing heart, her home was and still is a haven for all kinds of people. She has three biological children but she is mother to so many that we have lost count. I'm featuring her on the blog today because she was a #churchgirl, she showed the love of God to everyone around her and was such a lover of God. I wrote this piece in

Hello people, how are you all doing? I'm very certain that God has been faithful to you and there are so many things you are grateful for. Today is a glorious day and I would want you to set a specific time aside today to consciously thank God for all the amazing things that he has done for you that no other person could do for you, even the blessings and miracles that you think are "regular" or "normal" things like breathing and eating and even sleeping...not everyone can do that without aid or some form of pain. The Bible says that God rejoices over us with singing Zephanaiah 3:17 and a heart of worship that will worship him in spirit and in truth is what he seeks; so rejoice in him and worship him today. let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Today, we at churchgirlzrock.blogspot.com are thanking God for a special friend and sister. it's her birthday today and we're celebrating with her. You are truly a shining light to th

First timers... There's always a first time for everything and for everyone; it is such a phenomenal thing in one's life to the extent that it marks the beginning of many things that will probably have no end; some are life changing others nerve wrecking, some are a change in lifestyle or even an adjustment to the norm...whatever it is there's always a first time! The first time you smiled, laughed or cried you probably cannot remember or the first time you ate…lol. Your parents or guardians will remember when you took your first steps, your first word and your first favorite food before it became shawarma…lol, and they will remember most of your firsts. Our first times can be very exhilarating or even overwhelming, like my first time of posting on the blog…it was such a big deal; going over and over my lines, the format, the content etc but I got through it and I’m better at it a few posts down the line. Some of the things I did that helped me through the proces

Hi everyone, I know it has been a while you heard from your ChurchGirl...hahhaha, believe me I have been rocking and God has been awesome and I know He has been good to you too. Truly He does amazing things in our lives daily and we must not take them casually. I know we have published a few testimonies on the blog before but we will start a series called #TestimonyThursday...yipeee! God is doing amazing things in our lives so why won't we talk about them?! We will let the whole world know how our God takes care of us and how he does us good in amazing ways as we put our trust in Him. Share your testimonies with us on iamachurchgirl@gmail.com or send them in as comments and we'll be glad to praise God with you! Here is a report of God's goodness...rejoice with her! OVARIAN CYST GONE Sometime in 2013, between April and May, I began to feel excruciating pain in my lower abdomen which eventually made me go to the hospital for a check. We carried out a scan and th

Mark 4:26-29 (MSG)   Then Jesus said, “God’s kingdom is like seed thrown on a field by a man who then goes to bed and forgets about it. Then the seed sprouts and grows – he has no idea how it happens. The earth does it all without his help: first a green stem        of grass, then a bud, then the ripened grain is fully formed, he reaps – harvest       time! Ø   ‘ Let's take this position and see whether it will work, I checked on Google and they said it takes about 3 days for conception to take place after intercourse and about 7 days for implantation. So let’s try this way maybe it will work this time. The doctors online said that this position always works for couples trying to get pregnant.’ (After a couple of weeks she still sees her monthly flow.)
