ELVIRA’S PEN

DECLARATIONS - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved 😍 Permit me to once again wish us all a happy new month as we March into the 2nd day of March. On this very Monday, I do not have any words of wisdom or life analysis to share, but just to encourage us to take verbal declarations as a personal priority for every day living. We must have all heard that the words that come out of our mouth are very powerful… Yes. They truly are. Our words are called Spells-Spelling  And magical declarations are also called Spells. That’s not a coincidence.  So, let’s verbally declare some good things into our day, into our week and into our month.  *** Thank you dear Heavenly Father for this great day that You have given to us. We declare that every thing about this day, this week, this month will align in our favour. Every good thing that this earth has to offer, we claim and seize today. Abundance of love, joy, peace, money and good health will flow to us today and forever. Our names will...

Nigeria is home to hundreds of ethnic groups, each with its own unique history and traditions. Among these diverse cultures are the Urhobo people — one of the largest ethnic nationalities in the Niger Delta region and mostly found in Delta State, in southern Nigeria. Their neighbours are the Isoko to the South East, the Itsekiri to the West, Ijaw to the South and Ukwuani people to the North East. They speak the Urhobo language. Traditionally, the Urhobo believe in a supreme creator known as Ọghẹnẹ, alongside reverence for ancestors and spiritual forces connected to land and water. These beliefs emphasize harmony with nature and respect for lineage. Although Christianity is now widely practiced, traditional values still influence ceremonies, festivals, and moral codes. Cultural festivals often feature colorful attire, drumming, dance, and masquerades, serving as moments of purification, thanksgiving, and communal unity. Urhobo cuisine reflects their riverine environment and agricultural...

WE ALWAYS RISE - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! 😊 I was having a conversation with someone and it’s funny how I was pondering on similar thoughts before her messages came in.  I was reliving some aspects of my life and I honestly didn’t have anything to say to myself. Just me and my thoughts going back and forth, examining some of my decisions, things that have happened and how they should have happened. Just my tonight’s.   But when someone else shared a very similar story, one full of regrets, shame and loss, I could understand how she got to such state of mind, one that I don’t entertain for myself or anyone around me. As she shared her story, clarity came to me as I also poured out from my own well of strength. Far from living in the past, sometimes we just can’t shake off the urge to look back into our past and identify areas where we have made mistakes, opportunities we have lost, decisions we took that went south and how much time we have wasted.  One wh...

SET YOURSELF FREE  - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved!! In Africa, especially in Nigeria, we often associate negative occurrences with witchcraft, our enemies at work or one wicked uncle somewhere who doesn’t want our progress. As much as these things are real, they are not the cause of all our problems. Even the things that we have failed to do or we did wrongly have backfired and we have termed it “enemies at work”. Have you ever asked yourself why you pray every now and then. You bind and cast, yet bad things still happen around you., you don’t get the results you expect or things might be going right but suddenly starts going wrong again. This is because we have built a mental pattern for ourselves that attracts negativity into our lives. For instance, if you keep being afraid of car accidents when ever you travel; whenever you are in a car, every move the drive takes makes you anxious and weary of an accident, a day will come that the accident you have always feared will cat...

NO HURT IN LOVE🤍 - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! I don’t know if it’s because Valentine’s Day is around the corner, I am feeling all kinds of good emotions and I am also trying to figure them out.  It’s not like I have any big expectations for February 14, but there’s a way life feels right now and somehow, I just know I will be receiving and giving lots of love. I know there are several negative and positive myths and historic symbolism around Valentine, but like every other thing in life, history and myths don’t really matter when your heart and intentions are in a good place. Love is good, no matter how twisted our different definitions may be. Love is pure, no matter how cruel the world may be. Love heals. Love binds. Love mends. Love elevates. Love is calm and kind. As we run around the idea of what love should or shouldn’t be, let us take out time to evaluate our lives, take note of the people around us and figure out how best to show them love. Forget about the romant...
