    Living With a Clear Conscience

    As Paul stood before Felix and faced serious accusations, he did not allow the pressure of the situation to change his commitment to living faithfully before God. He declared that he continually worked to keep his conscience clear before both God and people.

    Paul understood that a faithful Christian life is not only about what others see. It is also about the condition of the heart when we stand before God. A clear conscience comes from sincerely seeking to live according to God's truth and doing what is right even when no one else is watching.

    This does not mean that believers will never make mistakes. Rather, it means that we should be quick to acknowledge our wrong, seek God's forgiveness, and make things right where possible. We should not become comfortable with hidden sin or knowingly hold on to attitudes and actions that dishonor God.
    Paul's example challenges us to examine how we live each day. Our words, choices, relationships, and private thoughts should reflect a desire to honor the Lord. We may not always be able to control what others say about us, but we can seek to control how we live before God.

    A clear conscience brings peace because we know that our lives are being surrendered to the Lord. When our hearts are right before Him, we do not need to live in fear of people's opinions. We can walk with integrity, knowing that God sees the truth.

    Today, let us follow Paul's example by striving to live honestly and faithfully before God and others. May our lives reflect a sincere desire to please the Lord in everything we do.

    Reflection Questions

    1. Is there anything in my life that is troubling my conscience before God

    2. Am I living with the same integrity in private as I do in public

    3. Is there anyone with whom I need to make something right

    Prayer

    Lord God, help me to live with a clear conscience before You and before others. Search my heart and reveal anything that does not please You. Give me courage to repent, wisdom to make things right, and strength to walk in integrity each day. In Jesus name Amen.

    Practical Application

    - Examine your heart and honestly confess anything that is not pleasing to God

    - Choose integrity even when no one else is watching

    - Make peace and correct wrongs where you have the opportunity

    Takeaway Thought

    A clear conscience comes from faithfully choosing to live in a way that honors God.

    Stand Firm When You Are Misunderstood

    Paul had been brought before Felix because of accusations made against him. His opponents described him in a negative way and attempted to make his faithful ministry appear to be a threat.
    Paul was not being accused because he had abandoned God. He was facing opposition because he was faithfully proclaiming the truth about Jesus Christ. His commitment to the Gospel had brought him into a difficult situation.

    This passage reminds us that doing what is right does not always mean that everyone will understand or approve of us. Sometimes people may misunderstand our motives, misrepresent our actions, or speak against us because of our faith.

    Paul's example teaches us not to measure our faithfulness by the opinions of others. Our goal should not be to make everyone pleased with us, but to remain faithful to God and truthful in our conduct.
    When we are falsely accused or misunderstood, our natural response may be anger, discouragement, or a desire to defend ourselves at all costs. But God calls us to respond with wisdom, patience, and integrity. We can trust Him to see the truth even when others do not.

    As believers, we should continue walking faithfully even when our obedience brings opposition. God knows our hearts, and He is able to use difficult situations as opportunities for us to demonstrate Christlike character.

    Reflection Questions

    1. How do I respond when someone misunderstands or misrepresents me

    2. Am I more concerned about people's opinions or about remaining faithful to God

    3. What can I do today to respond to opposition with wisdom and grace

    Prayer

    Lord God, help me remain faithful when I am misunderstood or treated unfairly. Give me wisdom to speak truthfully, patience to endure opposition, and grace to respond in a way that honors You. Help me to trust You with my reputation and continue walking faithfully in Your ways. In Jesus name Amen.

  • *TODAY'S PROPHETIC DECLARATION - TUESDAY, 1ST SEPTEMBER, 2026.*

    *MY MOUTH SHALL SPEAK THE PRAISE OF THE LORD*

    *First Day of the New Month - Happy New Month*

    Scripture:
    “My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.” — Psalm 145:21 (KJV).

    *Reflection – Enter September With Praise*

    A new month is a gift from God. We have crossed from August into September not by our own strength, but because of God's mercy and faithfulness.

    Psalm 145:21 gives us a beautiful decision to make:

    “My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD.”

    This is more than a declaration for our lips; it is a commitment of our hearts. We choose to praise God not only when everything is perfect, but because He remains God in every season.

    As you begin September, don't begin with fear about what the month may bring. Begin with praise for the God who already knows what lies ahead.

    Praise Him for His protection.
    Praise Him for His mercy.
    Praise Him for His provision.
    Praise Him for answered prayers.
    Praise Him for prayers still awaiting answers.
    Praise Him for the victories you can see and the battles He is fighting behind the scenes.

    Your mouth has power to shape the atmosphere of your day. Therefore, let September begin with thanksgiving, worship, faith, and positive confession rooted in God's Word.

    *Prophetic Declaration:*
    Today, I dedicate this new month to Almighty God. I declare that the Lord shall be glorified in my life throughout this month.

    I declare that my mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord. I will not use my mouth to magnify fear, impossibility, discouragement, or defeat. I shall continually testify of God's goodness and faithfulness.

    I proclaim that September shall be a month of divine favor, supernatural preservation, answered prayers, spiritual growth, open doors, restoration, fruitful labor, and glorious testimonies, according to God's perfect will for my life.

    I declare that God's mercy shall speak for me throughout this month. His grace shall sustain me, His wisdom shall guide me, and His presence shall accompany me wherever I go.

    I declare that every day of September shall be ordered by the Lord. My going out shall be blessed, my coming in shall be blessed, and my steps shall be directed according to His purpose.

    I proclaim divine covering over my family and household. May the Lord preserve us from evil, strengthen our bonds, provide for our needs, and fill our home with peace, love, unity, and joy.

    I declare God's blessing over my ministry. May He anoint me afresh, increase my spiritual capacity, make my service fruitful, and use me to touch lives and advance His Kingdom.

    I declare favor over my work, business, studies, and legitimate endeavors. May the Lord establish the work of my hands and give me wisdom to recognize and maximize every opportunity He provides.

    I proclaim that September shall not be a month of stagnation. I receive grace to move forward, grow, learn, build, serve, and fulfill God's purpose for my life.

    I declare that every legitimate expectation I have committed to God shall receive divine attention. Where I need patience, give me patience. Where I need wisdom, give me wisdom. Where I need courage, give me courage.

    I declare that my testimony will not be silenced. My mouth shall praise God before the breakthrough, during the process, and after the victory.

    I shall praise God when I understand and when I do not understand. I shall trust Him when the answer comes quickly and when I must wait.

    Today, I choose praise over complaining, faith over fear, hope over despair, gratitude over murmuring, and obedience over compromise.

    September belongs to God.
    My life belongs to God.
    My family belongs to God.
    My future belongs to God.
    And my mouth shall continually praise His holy name!

    In Jesus' mighty name. Amen!

    *Action Steps for today:*
    Start September with thanksgiving: Spend time thanking God for bringing you into a brand-new month.

    Read Psalm 145: Meditate on God's greatness, goodness, mercy, and faithfulness.

    Declare: “My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord throughout September!”

    Write your September expectations: Commit your goals, plans, prayers, and desires to God.

    Choose praise daily: Whenever you are tempted to complain, deliberately find something to thank God for.

    Speak God's Word: Begin each morning by declaring Scripture over your life and household.

    Be a blessing: Encourage, pray for, or help someone who needs hope this month.

    Create a praise habit: Set aside time each day for worship and thanksgiving.

    Commit the entire month to God: Ask Him to lead every decision, relationship, opportunity, and activity.

    *Prayer:*
    Heavenly Father,
    I thank You for bringing me into the month of September. I acknowledge that it is only by Your mercy, grace, and faithfulness that I am alive to see this new month.

    Today, I dedicate September to You.

    My mouth shall speak Your praise. Let thanksgiving continually rise from my heart and my lips.

    Thank You for August—for the victories, the lessons, the protection, the provision, the answered prayers, and even the challenges through which You strengthened me.

    Lord, go before me throughout September. Order my steps and direct my decisions. Close every door that is not according to Your will and lead me through every door You have ordained for me.

    Bless and preserve my family, ministry, work, business, studies, relationships, and every legitimate endeavor.

    Give me fresh wisdom, strength, favor, discipline, courage, and spiritual understanding.

    Let September be a month of meaningful progress and divine alignment. Let my life produce fruit that glorifies You.

    Lord, let my testimony increase. Give me reasons to praise You every day. Even when I am waiting for an answer, teach me to praise You. Even when I do not understand the process, help me to trust Your character.

    Let my mouth never become an instrument of destruction, fear, or discouragement. Instead, let my words bring encouragement, faith, truth, grace, and praise.

    I surrender September to You.
    Lead me, Lord.
    Guide me, Lord.
    Strengthen me, Lord.
    Use me, Lord.
    And be glorified in my life.

    In Jesus' mighty name. Amen.

    *New Month Blessing:*
    Happy New Month!
    May September be a month of testimony, divine favor, supernatural preservation, fruitful labor, spiritual growth, restoration, open doors, answered prayers, and undeniable testimonies.

    May the Lord go before you and make every crooked path straight.

    May His presence accompany you throughout the month. May His wisdom guide you, His grace sustain you, His mercy preserve you, and His favor surround you like a shield.

    May your family experience peace and divine protection.

    May your life, work, business, ministry become more fruitful and impactful.

    May the Lord bless your work, business, studies, and every legitimate endeavor.

    May every good seed you have planted begin to produce fruit according to God's perfect timing.

    May September bring you closer to God and deeper into His purpose for your life.

    And above everything else:

    May your mouth never cease to praise the Lord!
    May your heart overflow with thanksgiving!
    May God's Word guide you!
    May His presence preserve you!
    May your life become a living testimony of His goodness!

    WELCOME TO SEPTEMBER!

    “MY MOUTH SHALL SPEAK THE PRAISE OF THE LORD: AND LET ALL FLESH BLESS HIS HOLY NAME FOR EVER AND EVER.” — PSALM 145:21

    September shall be a month of PRAISE, PRESERVATION, PROGRESS, PURPOSE, and TESTIMONY!

    I declare: I will enter September with praise, walk through September with faith, and finish September with testimonies!

    Good morning beloved and Happy New Month! Welcome to September to remember and do have a blessed day!
    Shalom!

  • **God does not hear the prayer of one who prays and stays in sin**

    Seeking God cannot be an empty gesture. It must come with purpose in the heart, with genuine intention — this is how the prophets sought the Lord's face: *"Then I proclaimed a fast there... that we might afflict ourselves before our God"* (Ezra 8:21). Fasting and prayer are a way of emptying the heart of everything that is sin, so that God has room to speak and act. And God knows the heart — He is not impressed by fasting of the mouth, mere outward appearance, while the heart remains distant (Isaiah 58:3-6).

    There's a striking episode where a Canaanite woman cries out for help, and Jesus responds in a way that shocks at first: *"It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs"* (Matthew 15:26). The bread — the blessings, the miracles, God's answers — belongs to those who are children. To those who have intimacy, who live inside the Father's house. It's not for those who ask from the outside, living in sin, with no commitment to change. The woman, however, insists with faith and humility, and Jesus recognizes her great faith. The lesson remains the same: the position of a child opens a door that the position of a stranger does not.

    And that's exactly why Scripture teaches: *"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you"* (Matthew 7:7). That promise is real, but it isn't unconditional — it's for those who live as children, sanctified, truly walking with God. Whoever sanctifies themselves, whoever surrenders their life without reservation, is filled with the Holy Spirit, and whatever they ask within God's will, they will receive, because it is written.

    But this must be said: *"we know that God heareth not sinners"* (John 9:31). It's no use fasting, weeping, crying out, asking for blessing, while deliberately living in sin with no intention of letting go. God cannot be manipulated by tears or by forced fasting. He waits for the heart — broken, sincere, willing to change.

    If you want to see God answer your prayers, the path begins before the request: it's sanctification. It's living as a child, not as someone who only wants the crumbs from the table while living far from home.

    *Remember that the Word of God is a statute.*

    “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦;

    Starting well is important, but finishing well is essential. A new commitment, a new ministry, or a fresh decision to follow Christ can fill us with zeal. But many begin with excitement and grow weary when the road becomes difficult. Whether we are running with strength or barely taking the next step, the question is not whether we started—but whether we will remain faithful until the end.

    Near the end of his life, Paul declared in 𝟐 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝟒:𝟕, “𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦, 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘬𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘩.” His journey was marked by persecution, imprisonment, rejection, and suffering. Yet he did not measure life by comfort or convenience. By God's grace, Paul finished the course God gave him. He did not quit when the race became difficult.

    A runner does not receive the crown for leaving the starting line, but for crossing the finish line. So it is with the Christian life. There will be hills that exhaust us, storms that slow us, and voices that tell us to quit. But every faithful step, even when it is weak and unseen, moves us nearer to the finish.

    Scripture calls us to endurance: “𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘶𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘶𝘴” (𝐇𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐬 𝟏𝟐:𝟏), while “𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘑𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘩” (𝐇𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐬 𝟏𝟐:𝟐). We are also commanded, “𝘉𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦” (𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟐:𝟏𝟎). Faithfulness is not measured by one moment of excitement, but by a life that continues to trust and obey Christ.

    The enemy does not need to make us openly deny Christ if he can simply make us quietly drift away. Don't run like a broken compass—moving constantly but going nowhere. “𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘶𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨” (𝐆𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝟔:𝟗). We do not finish by our own strength; we finish by daily dependence upon the Saviour.

    Before Paul could say, “𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦,” Christ had already finished the work Paul could never do. On the cross, Jesus cried, “𝘐𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥” (𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧 𝟏𝟗:𝟑𝟎). He died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day according to the Scriptures (𝟏 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝟏𝟓:𝟑–𝟒). Our faithfulness does not earn salvation; Christ's finished work secures it. Because He finished redemption, we can faithfully finish our race.

    So where are you in the race today? What has tempted you to slow down, turn aside, or quit? We don't need Christ merely to help us cross the finish line—we need Him because He is the Author and Finisher of our faith. The race may be long. The road may be hard. But the finish is worth the fighting for. Start faithfully. Stay faithfully. Finish well, willingly.

    𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫: Heavenly Father, thank You for Christ, who finished the work of redemption for us. Forgive us for growing weary and turning toward easier paths. Strengthen us to endure, keep the faith, and serve You faithfully to the end. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

    Remember, a dose of God’s Word a day will keep you going all day!

  • Reflection:

    You are not born with godly character; it is a process that comes only through time, experience, humility, and testing.

    When you realize you are not all you would like to be, when you make a commitment to know God and read his Word, and when you face tough challenges and choose wisely, your character will increasingly become a better reflection of GOD'S .

    GOD'S RESPONSE~

    Remember how the LORD your God led you through the wilderness for 40 years, humbling you and testing you to prove your character, and to find out whether or not you would really obey His commands
    Deuteronomy 8:2

    Obedience is far better than sacrifice. Listening to Him is much better than offering the fat of rams.
    1 Samuel 15:22

    GOD'S PROMISE~

    Endurance develop strength of character in us, and character strengthens are confident expectation of salvation.
    Romans 5:4

  • *TODAY'S PROPHETIC DECLARATION - MONDAY, 31ST AUGUST, 2026.*

    *HOLD FAST TO GOD'S WORD*

    Last Monday & Last Day of August

    Scripture:
    “And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” — Mark 7:9 (KJV).

    *Reflection – Let God's Word Have the Final Authority*

    In Mark 7, Jesus confronted the religious leaders because they had allowed human traditions to take priority over God's commandments.

    The problem was not simply tradition itself. Traditions can have value, but they become dangerous when human practices replace God's truth.

    As we come to the final day of August, this verse invites us to examine our hearts.

    Are there habits we have become comfortable with that God is asking us to change? Are there opinions, traditions, expectations, or human approval that have become more important to us than obedience to God's Word?

    Christianity is not merely about outward religious activities. God desires a heart that genuinely loves Him and obeys His Word.

    As August closes, let us surrender our ways to God and allow His Word to shape our lives in the new month.

    Don't allow tradition to take the place of transformation.

    *Prophetic Declaration:*
    Today, I declare that God's Word shall have the highest authority in my life. I will not allow human opinions, traditions, pressure, or expectations to take the place of God's truth.

    I declare that my heart is open to correction, instruction, transformation, and the leading of the Holy Spirit.

    Today, I receive grace to examine my habits, attitudes, decisions, and priorities. Wherever my ways have departed from God's will, may the Lord lovingly redirect my steps.

    I declare that I shall not be controlled by the desire to please people at the expense of pleasing God. My loyalty shall be to Christ, and my decisions shall be guided by His Word.

    I proclaim divine wisdom over my family, ministry, work, business, studies, relationships, and destiny. May God's truth guide every important decision I make.

    I declare that every unhealthy habit, ungodly pattern, destructive mindset, and practice that is contrary to God's will shall lose its influence over my life.

    Today, I choose obedience over convenience, truth over popularity, righteousness over compromise, and God's approval over human applause.

    I declare that my faith shall not become merely an outward religious routine. I want my worship to come from a sincere heart, and my obedience to flow from genuine love for Christ.

    As August comes to an end, I declare that every lesson God has taught me shall produce transformation in my life. I shall not merely hear God's Word—I shall live by it.

    I proclaim that September shall be a month of deeper obedience, spiritual maturity, renewed commitment, divine wisdom, and greater intimacy with God.

    I declare that the Lord shall expose anything that has quietly taken His place in my heart. May He remove every idol of human approval, pride, tradition, materialism, fear, or self-will.

    Today, I surrender my plans and expectations to God. His will shall be greater than my preferences, and His purpose shall be greater than my plans.

    I declare that my life shall become a testimony of authentic faith—not merely what I say publicly, but what I practice privately.

    God's Word is my standard.
    Christ is my Lord.
    Obedience is my response.
    Truth is my foundation.
    And God's will is my desire.

    Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen!

    *Action Steps for today:*
    Begin with thanksgiving: Thank God for preserving you throughout the entire month of August.

    Read Mark 7:1–13: Reflect on Jesus' warning about allowing human traditions to replace God's commandments.

    Declare: “God's Word is the final authority in my life. I choose obedience over human approval.”

    Examine your heart: Ask yourself, “Is there any habit, attitude, tradition, or desire that is taking priority over God's will?”

    Make one change: Identify one area where God is calling you to greater obedience and take a practical step today.

    Guard against people-pleasing: Remember that pleasing God is more important than receiving everyone's approval.

    Prepare for September: Write down one spiritual goal for the new month—such as deeper prayer, Bible study, evangelism, forgiveness, or consistent worship.

    Close August with gratitude: Thank God for His mercy, protection, provision, correction, and faithfulness throughout the month.

    *Prayer for the Last Day of August:*
    Heavenly Father,
    I thank You for bringing me safely to the final day of August. Looking back, I can see Your mercy, protection, provision, guidance, and faithfulness.

    Lord, as I close this month, search my heart and reveal anything that is not pleasing to You.

    Forgive me for every time I have allowed human opinion, tradition, convenience, pride, fear, or the desire for approval to become more important than Your Word.

    Help me to love Your truth and obey Your commandments.

    Give me a heart that is willing to receive correction. Where I have gone wrong, redirect me. Where I have become spiritually complacent, awaken me. Where I have become distracted, draw me back to You.

    Lord, let my worship come from a sincere heart. Let my Christianity be more than outward appearance or religious routine. May my private life agree with my public confession of faith.

    I surrender my family, ministry, work, business, studies, relationships, plans, and future to You.

    As I enter September, help me to walk more closely with You. Give me greater hunger for Your Word, deeper commitment to prayer, stronger faith, and greater obedience.

    Let September bring spiritual growth, divine direction, fruitful service, and opportunities to glorify Christ.

    Thank You for every blessing and every lesson of August.

    I close August with gratitude, and I enter September with faith.

    May Your Word guide me, Your Spirit lead me, and Your will be accomplished in my life.

    In Jesus' mighty name. Amen.

    *Blessing for today:*
    May the Lord's Word remain the foundation of your life as August comes to an end.

    May God give you grace to recognize everything that must be surrendered, corrected, changed, or strengthened before entering the new month.

    May you finish August with gratitude instead of regret, faith instead of fear, peace instead of anxiety, and obedience instead of compromise.

    May the Lord bless your family, strengthen your ministry, establish the work of your hands, guide your studies, prosper your honest endeavors, and order your steps according to His purpose.

    As September begins, may you experience fresh grace, renewed strength, greater wisdom, deeper faith, divine favor, and spiritual growth.

    God's Word shall guide you.
    His truth shall transform you.
    His Spirit shall lead you.
    His grace shall sustain you.
    His purpose shall prevail in your life.

    LAST MONDAY & LAST DAY OF AUGUST

    “FULL WELL YE REJECT THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD, THAT YE MAY KEEP YOUR OWN TRADITION.” — MARK 7:9.

    As you close the month of August, may you release every way that is contrary to God's will and enter September with a heart fully surrendered to Christ.

    Goodbye August!
    Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness!
    Welcome September!
    I enter the new month with faith, obedience, hope, and expectation!

    Good morning beloved, happy new week and do have a blessed, peaceful, fruitful, and spiritually renewed final day of August!
    Shalom!

    *Remember: Your confession is your possession.*

    * Postulant C. O. Oyadosu.*
