“My dad, my mentor, my spiritual cover, my prophet, my friend, my greatest fan, my cheerleader.
Today is the second day since you were transferred to heaven, and though I know you are in a better place, the pain is unbearable.
You taught me the word, you taught me to be a prayer warrior, you made me understand my kingdom mandate, you taught me music, you taught me how to proclaim and possess all that is my portion, you taught me how to pull down strongholds, you taught me how to take charge! You taught me resilience, you taught me kingdom mysteries, and you raised a kingdom giant in me!!!
