The Gospel Diary

  🙋Theme Scripture Revelation 12:11 – “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony...” 📫Opening Reflection : Why Testimonies Matter   - Across time and continents, testimonies have shaped revivals, healed hearts, and whispered God's reality into chaos. They’re not just stories—they're spiritual thunder. From Abraham recounting his covenant journey to David's victory songs, from Paul’s dramatic conversion in Acts 22 to the Samaritan woman’s ripple-effect in John 4, the Bible echoes again and again: what God does in one life, He wants to multiply in many. 🌅 Scripture Anchors - Psalm 66:16 – “Come and hear... I will tell you what He has done for my soul.”    - Mark 5:19 – Jesus said, “Go... report... what great things the Lord has done for you.”    - John 4:39 – “Many believed... because of the woman’s testimony.”    - Acts 4:20 – “For we cannot but speak what we have seen and heard.” Even ch...

💅Theme : Faith That Endures   🙋Focus : Honoring the first post, activating fresh faith, and launching Seven Days of Mercy with bold expectation. 🗣️Bible Reading Matthew 16:19 (NLT):   - “And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you lock on earth will be locked in heaven, and whatever you open on earth will be opened in heaven.” 💮Opening Trickle A Whisper of Mercy . Before the hashtags, before the headlines—there was a whisper.   One word. One fast. One faithful act.    That whisper became Gospel Diary, born not of fame but of fire—sparked by a servant’s story and sustained by heaven’s mercy. Today, we don't just celebrate a platform—we celebrate every heart that dared to believe. 💥Flashback Testimony On August 1, 2024, Gospel Diary began with “Unlocking the Power of Faith: A Christian Guide”, drawing life from Matthew 16:19 and Hebrews 11:6. It wasn’t just a devotional—it was a living testament. Pst Chris S. Akpan share...

🛂Gospel Diary Trickle (GDT) Before the trumpet sounds and the answer thunders… there is a whisper.      A still place where Heaven holds its breath and hearts learn to listen.     Today, we enter the hush—and find God waiting too. "Be still, and know that I am God." — Psalm 46:10. The Spirit invites you today to listen deeper. Beyond sound, beyond noise, beyond need. Whether you’re pacing through Lagos traffic, lying under Chilean stars, or seated quietly in Jakarta, know this: God isn’t absent. His silence is sacred. His stillness is strategy.  🩸 Reflection We ask hard questions in the quiet: _ Why hasn’t He answered yet?   _ Has He heard me at all?   _ Am I being forgotten? But across cultures and continents, the same whisper returns:   - The silence is not punishment—it is preparation. God waits with us. And He weaves even when the loom is silent. 👥 Testimonies from the Nations Morocco : “Six years o...

Scripture Focus Luke 10:25–37 > “The one who showed him mercy.  Jesus told him, Go and do likewise.” 💬 Devotional Thought:    - Scrolling through today’s headlines can feel overwhelming. Division, violence, and loneliness fill our feeds. But nestled in Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan is a radical call: don't just care—cross the road. The priest and Levite passed by. The Samaritan stopped, stooped, and served. That’s compassion with a pulse—not a feeling, but a decision. Mercy isn’t sterile—it’s messy, inconvenient, and sometimes uncomfortable. But it’s also life-changing. 🧭Real-Life Analogy:    - One busy morning in Lagos, a man collapsed near a crowded bus stop. The rush of commuters barely slowed—most turned their heads and kept walking. But one woman paused.   She knelt beside him, offered water, and stayed until help arrived. Later that day, she visited him at the hospital to check on his recovery. She wasn’t a medic o...

 🔥Scripture Focus🔥 “I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.” — John 10:16 (NIV).       Millions like him have never heard the name of Jesus. Let’s change that.  🧺 A Story Worth Telling🌦️    _ Rekha is 11. Every morning before sunrise, she gathers her family's laundry and walks to the river’s edge in their small Indian village. Her fingers are raw from scrubbing, her heart still tender with childhood wonder. One day, she overhears a visitor mention someone named “Yeshu”—but the moment passes like a breeze, and no one explains. Life carries on. She grows up, raises children, and grows old… never knowing that she was deeply loved by the Savior she never heard of. How many more Rekhas live and die in silence? 🌍A People Yet to Hear📢     _ Among India’s many communities lives the Rajaka Dhobi people group—known for g...

♨️Memory Verse:   -: Acts 8:18-19 "Now when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money, saying, “Give me also this authority, that on whomever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.”" (NKJV). Introduction   - In today's world, money seems to be the answer to every problem. We're often tempted to believe that with enough wealth, we can acquire anything we desire. However, the Bible teaches us that there are some things in life that money can't buy. One of those things is the gift of God. Let's explore this truth through the story of Simon and a modern-day example. 🌀 A Biblical Story:   - Simon, a sorcerer, tried to purchase the gift of the Holy Spirit with money when he saw the apostles laying hands on people to receive the Holy Spirit. Peter rebuked him, saying, "Your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!" (Acts 8:20). Simon's story...
