Apostle Chisala Samson

‭1 Peter 4:8-11 NIV‬
[8] Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. [9] Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. [10] Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. [11] If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.

THE LOVE OF CHRIST
Don't underestimate the power of someone who loves you; having a prayer point at your fingertips is better than just thinking about it - appreciate what you have before it's gone

It's a bitter truth that our loved ones can be the most ungrateful. A small act of love can sometimes sting more than a snake bite. Perhaps it's time to prioritize humanity over personal relationships

When You Perceive Financial Abundance, Embracing an Affluent Mindset,
GRACE THAT SPEAKS

BEFORE YOU BECOME A PASTOR'S WIFE, KNOW THESE 10 THINGS

(1) KNOW WHAT HE’S CALLED TO DO

Not every pastor is the same. Some are teachers, some are evangelists, some are always casting out demons at 2AM. Find out what kind of ministry he’s called to because his calling will shape your marriage, schedule, and lifestyle. Don’t marry a man with a global mission if you only want a quiet “Netflix and chill” life.

(2) GOD SIGNS HIS CHECKS

Just because he pastors a church doesn’t mean he’s secretly rich. Ministry is not a get-rich-quick scheme. There may be seasons where money is flowing and seasons where faith is the family budget. If you’re marrying him mainly for financial comfort, this might not be your lane.

(3) YOU’RE NOT JUST GETTING A HUSBAND — YOU’RE JOINING A MISSION

Being married to a pastor means you’re part of the assignment too. You’ll need to pray with him, support him, encourage him, and sometimes help carry the weight. Ministry works better when the wife is a teammate, not a competitor.

(4) GET READY FOR SACRIFICES

Date night might get interrupted by emergency counseling calls. Vacation plans may suddenly become revival plans. Ministry life can be unpredictable. If you need everything to always go perfectly your way, pastoring may stretch you a little.

(5) YOU NEED A BIG HEART

Church people come with different personalities. Some are sweet, some are complicated, and some act like they were baptized in drama. You’ll need patience, wisdom, and grace because everybody will not think, act, or talk like you.

(6) DON’T LIVE OFF PEOPLE’S APPROVAL

One Sunday they’ll call you “Mama,” the next Sunday somebody’s criticizing the way you smiled during worship. If your confidence depends on people clapping for you, ministry life will wear you out. Let God’s approval matter most.

(7) YOUR HOUSE MAY NEVER REALLY BE PRIVATE

People will call, visit, text, cry, ask for prayer, and sometimes show up hungry. A pastor’s home often becomes a safe place for others. Hospitality is part of the package. Basically… learn to hide snacks wisely.

(8) CHURCH CONFLICT IS REAL

Yes, even church folks disagree sometimes. Shocking, right? There may be misunderstandings, criticism, or tension. Don’t make things worse with anger or gossip. Learn to handle conflict with prayer, wisdom, and maturity.

(9) YOU NEED YOUR OWN PRAYER LIFE

You can’t survive ministry on borrowed spirituality. Prayer is not optional. You need your own relationship with God because spiritual battles are real. Some days prayer will be the only thing keeping you from replying to people “in the flesh.”

(10) REMEMBER — HE’S STILL HUMAN

Yes, he’s anointed. Yes, he preaches powerful sermons. But he’s still a man who gets tired, discouraged, stressed, and emotionally drained. Encourage him, love him, pray for him, and don’t expect him to float around the house speaking King James English all day.

To all the future Pastors Wives. God keep you and bless you. Wishing you the very best.

Destined for Glory
Apostle Chisala Samson

An elephant and a dog became pregnant at the same time. Three months later, the dog gave birth to six puppies. Six months after that, she was pregnant again, and nine months later, she gave birth to another dozen puppies. This pattern continued for some time.

Eighteen months later, the dog approached the elephant and asked, "Are you sure you're pregnant? We conceived on the same day. I've already given birth to a dozen puppies three times, and you're still expecting! What's going on?"

The elephant calmly replied, “There’s something important I need you to understand. What I carry isn’t a puppy; it’s an elephant. I only give birth once every two years, but when my baby touches the earth, the world will feel it. When it crosses a street, people will stop and stare in awe. What I carry is powerful and majestic."

She continued, “Don’t lose faith. When you see others receiving their rewards quickly, don’t feel jealous if yours hasn’t come yet. Don’t despair. Instead, remind yourself, 'My time is coming. And when it does, people will be amazed.'"

MORAL:
God’s timing is perfect. Everything comes when it is meant to—never too soon, never too late, but always at the right moment.

‭Proverbs 13:20 NIV‬
[20] Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.

DO THINGS IN COOPERATION WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. ANYTIME YOU FOCUS AND PUT MAN FIRST, YOU WILL ERROR.
I PRAY THAT YOU WILL NOT MISS THE APPOINTED TIME OF GOD FOR YOUR DESTINY.

JUST AGREE BY SAYING AMEN

‭1 Corinthians 4:20 NIV‬
[20] For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.
