Grow with Bunmi

A price was paid for you to breathe, live and to move…

There is a particular kind of pain that comes from discovering you were sincere… but misaligned.You were consistent.You were passionate.You were progressing.But not toward purpose.Kai… let me share something personal with you.

Before you achieved anything…you were called something.Before you proved yourself…a name was spoken over you.In Scripture, names were never random.They carried identity.They revealed allegiance.They sometimes even predicted outcomes.Hezekiah - “Yahweh strengthens.”Sennacherib - strengthened by another god.And before the battle began,their names were already speaking.In this episode of Grow With Bunmi, we explore the power of names the ones given to us,the ones we’ve accepted,and the ones God is still speaking.Because the name you answer towill shape the life you live.And maybe it’s timeto return to the name heaven calls you.

The path of the righteous is not random.It is weighed.It is ordered.It is made level by God Himself.Isaiah 26:7 reminds us that even when the road feels slow or unseen,He is shaping every step.Smoothing the way.Guiding the journey.The Righteous’ Pathway is a quiet assurancethat walking with God may not always be easy,but it is always intentional.And it always leads somewhere good

There are moments when truth doesn’t just get taught; it dawns. In this episode, I share a personal realization that shifted my heart: the sudden awareness that the Almighty God is truly with me.Using Isaiah 8:6–8, we reflect on what it means to stand in the middle of uncertainty and still be covered by God’s presence. Emmanuel is a reminder that even when the waters rise, God has not left us. He is present, involved, and faithful.

Drawing from Isaiah 20:3–6, this episode is a sobering reminder about misplaced hope. It speaks to the danger of trusting in people, systems, or appearances, and the call to redirect all hope and expectations back to God alone.Through this reflection, we are invited to examine where our confidence truly lies and to gently release the pressure of being someone else’s source — choosing instead to point all hearts to God Almighty.

In this episode, we reflect on Philippians 4:10–12, exploring the quiet strength of contentment. Paul’s words remind us that faith is not measured by abundance or lack, but by a heart anchored in God through every season.Whether in little or in much, this episode invites us to grow in gratitude, trust God’s provision, and remain steady no matter what life brings.

Happy New year! Welcome to season 2 of Grow with Bunmi.Say these words out loud and believe it in your heart.“This year, I rise strengthened.Not by my own power,but through Christ who lives in me.I can do all things —the hard things,the new things,the things I once feared.I am empowered for the calling,sustained for the journey,and anchored in purpose.As I grow, I trust the Source of my strength.This is my declaration for the year I can do all things through Christ who strengthens and empowers me”.

Compliments of the season!Do you know there is a reward for the season?Jesus was born for a reason and depending on your interactions with His sacrifice, there is a reward…

There is regenerative power in God. His creation echoes it and so does you and I.Have you noticed, experienced, honed or expressed it? You might need to sit with the Spirit on this one cos there’s no way I can do justice to it

One of the reasons why we struggle for so long in a situation even though we pray and throw everything we have at it is that, we have not actually deciphered whose battle it is. Why are you panting at a war that is not yours to fight? It’s time to reevaluate that situation…

If Jesus was to respond to your thoughts today, what would He say? Where is the love? Where is the compassion? Can we stop policing what God has already paid for and focus on making sure we are aligned with what He has done?

Welcome to the month of November. I’m particularly excited about this month not just because it’s my birth month but because of the excitement I have felt about this month before it even came. I knew it wasn’t ordinary until God confirmed why…

Have you seen an injured child hiding his or her wound from a parent before? Why do you think they do this? Depending on the age of the child, it can be for reasons varying from not wanting the pain of the treatment, thinking it will heal by itself, not wanting to be chastised for getting hurt or not wanting to hear “I told you so”. God wants us to heal and He wants to heal and complete us but we have to be sincere in our desire for healing…

It is interesting how verses we recite mindlessly are powerful and effective when we allow the Holy Spirit move us into alignment by opening our minds to understand. Today we explore on of those scriptures

Who are you? This is a question we want to answer right but we are not always sure about how to answer it. Sometimes, it is because we are in doubt, sometimes it’s because we want to do justice to it. Here is one way to answer this weighty question…
