There’s hardly anyone who likes to wait, especially if you live in fast-paced cities such as Lagos or New York. From cars honking once the traffic light barely turns green to the brisk paces of pedestrians, we all tend to enjoy being on the move. So, it’s usually unwelcome when some sort of delay comes into the picture. When there’s an…
Ok. So this isn’t your typical vlog post, I know prayer and other religious type conversations are kept for pastors, priests and other religious clergy and I am neither. But Discovery with Glory was created to share my discoveries on life and I have made a few discoveries on prayer recently which I think may be worth sharing. Recently, I…
Year 2016 is about intentionality- and one area where I want to be intentional about growth is in my spiritual life. Prayer is a key part of spiritual growth.

We set the stage for what our living will be like in our…
My biggest fear is dying without fulfilling the reason for which I was created. I believe everyone on earth is created for a purpose. We aren’t just pawn pieces, moved at the whim of the gods. No. Each of us was made because we have something the world needs. And that need is tucked away deep within us and requires…
By Glynnis Whitwer I used to believe if God needed something important done, He would ask someone who had it all together. You know those women. They never yell at their kids or have an emotional meltdown in the craft store over which tie-die kit to buy. They know what they’re having for dinner each night and come to Biblestudy with…
“I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 (NASB) A busy mom of six once told me, “I’m too busy NOT to pray!” Therein lies the secret to a life that really works.
