Judah (Part 11 The finale) The Book of Genesis is filled with Judah’s story, intricately woven into the other seemingly louder stories, and if we blink too fast, we will miss those God-moments in the life and experience of Judah. His growth was phenomenal, from a man whose life was filled with misfortunes and missteps,… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 11 — The Finale)
Have you ever been in a situation where someone really hurt you and every other person has apologised except that person, and you never got closure because the culprit has refused to take responsibility? Well, we’re seeing something similar here. Judah sold Joseph into captivity. It was his idea, and today, they were having a… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 10)
As I gradually finish this series on Judah, I reflect on how history often repeats itself, and how we barely see those subtle recycling. Joseph released his brothers after three days of imprisonment and intense interrogation, but he held on to Simeon, one of the oldest four sons of Leah as collateral in exchange for… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 9)
Ten brothers embarked on a journey from Canaan to Egypt. There was food in Egypt despite the severe famine. Jacob (now Israel) instructed his sons to take some silvers and go buy food for their household. Judah seemed to have returned home as the household pooled resources together as they tried to navigate the season… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 8)
Famine. There was famine in the land. I think we should take a step back and understand a few things. In Genesis chapter 12, God called Abraham. He and his household had barely landed in Canaan and there was famine in the land. Abraham did the next rational thing. He relocated to Egypt. Sarah was… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 7)
Judah (Part 6) Judah allowed himself to be røbbed by the temple hårlõt so that he wouldn’t become a laughingstock. No one would respect an adult who gave up his entire existence for a one-night stand 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏾♀️ Despite the bold face, the experience shook him and it began to set the stage for Judah to… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 6)
Let’s pause on Judah’s story take a quick trip to the future. ”The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes and the allegiance of the nations is his.“ Genesis 49:10 BSB Judah had the prophetic destiny that the sceptre and the staff shall not depart from… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 5)

The proverbial battle line has been drawn because the spotlight was back on Judah. Squarely! A scrutiny of his personal life and his nuclear family. God had chosen him. God was fixated on him. Sadly, he wasn’t ready. He wasn't yet a man God could use. So, God had to take him through the winepress.… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 3)
The sons of Jacob were sons of Belial. Period. They were just wild. Simeon and Levi took down a whole city and unalived all the men there and felt no remorse. These were all grown-up men and they were running their father’s vast businesses. Joseph was seventeen years old now, and Benjamin probably still a… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 2)

Now, Judah was the fourth… Continue reading Judah: A Series (Part 1)

It was about a former Nollywood actress who had 'an encounter with God' and became born again and stopped acting. She changed her looks to become very conservative and so completely turned her lifestyle around. She's already had over… Continue reading Personal Revelation vs Biblical Doctrine
