Dear Tyla

It's a simple question — until it isn't.In this episode, we journey into the heart of a question that has stopped many in their tracks. “Do you love me?” It sounds tender… until it demands an answer. When asked by a partner, it can echo with desperation, longing, or truth we've tried to avoid. But what if the real question being asked isn't about the other person at all?This is not just a conversation about romance — it's about the mirrors we hold up in love, the answers we fear, and the spaces where comfort is no longer enough. Let this episode stir something in you. Not just an answer — but a revelation.

In a world where humility is often misunderstood as hiding, this episode challenges you to let your light shine unapologetically. Many of us wrestle with the tension between being visible and being seen as prideful — but how can anyone glorify God for what they've never seen?In Let It Shine, we talk about the importance of making your gifts known, not for self-promotion, but so that the world may see and give glory to your Father in heaven. This is a call to step out, speak up, and share what God has placed in you. Because hiding isn't humility — it's fear disguised.Let this episode encourage you to embrace visibility with reverence, knowing that when your light shines, it points to the Source.

In this heartfelt episode, I share the story behind my song Faithful God — a melody birthed from the fire of personal encounters and the unwavering truth of God's nature. This episode explores how every testimony is more than a recount of the past; it is a prophetic seed for the future.A testimony is not just a “look what God has done”, it's a bold “He can do it again” — for you, for me, for anyone who dares to believe. Through this song and conversation, I invite you into a space where faith rises, hope stirs, and the faithfulness of God becomes a living echo in your own story.Tune in and let your spirit be reminded: if He did it before, He will do it again — because He is a Faithful God.

In this special episode, I'm simply thinking out loud—reminiscing on the journey of Dear Tyla as we celebrate 4 incredible years. From uncertain beginnings to becoming a voice of hope and truth, this episode is a heartfelt reflection on the growth, the grit, the grace, and the God moments that have shaped us. I talk about the milestones we've crossed, the challenges that refined us, and the unexpected blessings along the way. It's raw. It's real. It's a celebration of becoming—one honest episode at a time.

Sometimes it feels like certain parts of our lives are gone for good — missed opportunities, lost dreams, or the grace we think we once carried. But in this heartfelt episode of Dear Tyla, we're reminded that nothing is ever truly dead when it's reconnected to its Source. God is not just a redeemer; He is a restorer. As long as there is breath in your lungs, there is hope for life again. Restoration may take time and come with a cost, but God's agenda is always laced with renewal. This episode invites you to believe again, hope again… and most importantly, Live Again

God is a God that rewards. He sees. He rewards and is setting a beautiful table in your honour. But what if the table God is preparing for you isn't just about blessing — but about testifying? In this powerful episode, we explore the meaning behind God's open display of favor — not hidden, not quiet, but right where the enemy can see. It's not about shaming others, but about revealing His goodness in undeniable ways.Whether you've been overlooked, mocked, or misunderstood, this episode will stir your faith and remind you: God rewards, and He does it boldly — with purpose. There's a reason your breakthrough is happening where it is.Pull up a seat. The table is set. Let's talk about Dining With The Enemy.

In this soul-stirring episode of the podcast, we dive into the beauty hidden in brokenness. Perfectly Broken reminds us that God is not repelled by our cracks—He's drawn to them. He sees beyond the shattered pieces and lovingly mends, molds, and uses them for His glory.Through raw reflections and powerful truth, we explore how being broken isn't the end of the story but the very beginning of something sacred. God specializes in restoration. He doesn't discard the damaged—He dwells with the hurting, heals the wounded, and brings purpose from pain.Whether you're feeling fractured, forgotten, or flawed, this episode is a gentle reminder: You are not disqualified. You are perfectly positioned for a divine comeback. God still uses broken vessels to pour out His greatest works.

In this powerful episode, we dive into the transformative principle of putting action behind your faith. "Prepare For Rain" challenges you to not just believe, but to live like what you believe is already on the way. Whether you're praying for breakthrough, waiting on a promise, or holding onto a vision, this message will inspire you to start building, moving, and preparing—just like the rain is coming. Faith without works is dead—but faith with action changes everything.

God values our service — our willingness to do, to give, to build. But what happens when our service replaces our fellowship with Him?In this episode, we unpack The Martha Paradox — the internal conflict between serving God and sitting with Him. Martha wasn't wrong for serving; her mistake was serving without first drawing from the presence of Jesus.We explore the tension many believers face: pouring out without being filled, doing the work of God without anchoring ourselves in relationship with Him. God isn't asking us to stop serving — He's inviting us to serve from the place of intimacy, not in place of it.✨ Before we move for God, let's remember to meet with Him.

There's a treasure inside you — gifts placed by God, full of potential and purpose. But too often, we're caught longing for validation from people we esteem or those closest to us. We want them to see us, to cheer us on, to affirm our greatness.But what about the ones already clapping for us? The ones who celebrate us without prompting? The ones who see value in us, effortlessly?In this episode, we explore the powerful reminder to show up — not for applause or popularity, but for the people who already believe in who you are. Care for those who consider you a big deal. Sometimes, the greatest honour you can give your gift is to pour it into the spaces where it's already appreciated.✨ It's time to stop chasing recognition and start showing up where you're already seen.

Ever been on a date and taken a picture of your significant other? Well it's one of the most thrilling experiences in life and many times you get to see things about the person that you've never seen. In life it's important that we get our view from people that love us and see us not as we are but all that we can be. Knowing that a typical human is flawed will lead us to find our identity through the lens of perfect love. In this episode we discuss the importance of seeing ourselves through the lens of God's Word

Have you ever read the story in scripture where Jesus explains how faith as a mustard seed can do a lot? Have you ever found yourself in a position where it sees your faith is way larger than a mustard seed but seemingly powerless? What if the problem is not the size of your faith but the quality. In this episode we discuss in more details the value of building faith

I celebrated my birthday in March and it was truly a remarkable experience. I believe this story will remind you that God has not forgotten

Something happened to you when you find yourself in the right place, with the right audience and on the right stage. In this episode I share the valuable lessons I've learned in this period of silence and the benefits of God bringing your own people to you

Continuation of Last week's episode!

Happy New Month. It's February and it's the month of love. We all express love in the way we define it. In this episode we discuss my idea of love and though it may be controversial you'll will definitely learn a lot from it...

Treasure is usually hidden in forms that we may not easily recognise. Not everything that is of value shines. It takes discernment to recognise the treasure hidden in us and around us. In this episode we discuss the need for discernment in all things

Progress is something we all desire but it comes on the basis of the little things we do. Those steps of dedication and discipline cause us to enter into great experiences while on the other hand the little things we do wrong have a serious negative effect. In this episode we discuss the value of consistency.

It's early in the year and because of the things we desire we can get to the point where we actually lose focus on what matters most. In this episode we discuss the value of making God a priority and keeping our hearts focused on what matters most

Have you ever heard a testimony and said WOW!!!? Well wow can mean two things. It can mean that you are simply blown away by the magnitude of God's power or it can mean that it feels fake and fabricated. We decide the limitations of God in our lives. In this episode we discuss how our perception of situations lead to our perception of God's ability...

In this epiosde we probe our hearts if we truly trust God. There are many confessions we make that are usually just emotional or because of the euphoria of the moment but our inner convictions are truly different. Sometimes we also don't believe that God has our best interest at heart and it leads us to not just question His love for us but also His ability. In this episode we remind ourselves that God is dependable.

There is usually more than one side to an individual or a thing and many times we relate to people based on the aspect that is considered most important. We prioritise certain aspects and sometimes lose sight on the multifaceted nature of people and things. In this episode we discuss a particular side of Jesus that we tend to neglect as believers.

Our walk with God will require us to take risks in order to see the miraculous. God places audacious desires in our hearts so that He can show His wonders. In this episode we discuss the need to have faith this year. The dreams we have are as valid as our faith in God's ability to perform but we have to agree to have Faith on Water...

Happy New Year!!! I am super excited that we made it to 2025 and what better way to start the year than with God. So many decisions and resolutions are being made and they are all with good intentions but it's important how you you start. It's important to start with God in every aspect and dealing with your life. This episode discusses the need for beginning with God and the benefits of doing such. Always remember to start with God

We were all born as believers. We all came to the earth knowing that every thing is possible. Along the line we learn a terrible trait called doubt. We get told that we can't do certain things either by the people we love and respect or by the various experiences we encounter as we try to achieve those dreams. It now becomes a very important task for us to unlearn the art of doubting and pick up the faith culture. We have to learn to believe again and set ourselves on the path to victory. If it first starts in the mind then it must be conquered there first.

It's been a pretty long and eventful year for me and while reflecting on the year I came to realise how many prayers the Lord has answered. Sometimes we get so caught up with the things we need at tye moment that we forget the things we once asked the Lord for and He eventually answered. In this episode I share a personal testimony and how it's been encouraging me to trust God to fulfil the other promises. In all that happens in your life remember that GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!!!

In a world with so many opinions and so many voices, your convictions are one of your greatest assets. Living in the world of men you must believe in something or someone. Your faith must be anchored on something at some point. Faith is a choice. Every voice is an opinion from you to choose from. God speaks and the opinions and experiences of men also speak. The choice is yours to make. As for me I BELIEVE GOD

Adventures are as fun as they are daring. The one who guides you through an adventure determines the reality and extent of your experience. Walking with God is both thrilling and exciting but it requires faith. There is so much God wants to show the world through our lives but it will only happen through the hearts of those who are willing to risk it all to believe God. In this episode we trigger the desire to have God Adventures

The story of the Shepherd leaving the 99 sheep to save one that was lost is a very common story of how the Lord goes all out for the lost. It shows how previous we are in the sight of the Lord. As powerful as this truth is, we are left with one question. Does it mean the Shepherd doesn't value the 99? In the second episode of these series we discuss on this and see a perspective that is truly liberating

We are starting a series about common stories from scripture and learning lessons from perspectives that aren't usually seen. We all know the story of the Prodigal Son but what about the elder brother which I call the Unprodigal Son? There were legitimate concerns that he expressed that we don't acknowledge and also a response from the Father that will set things in a different light? Was the Prodigal Son loved more than the Unprodigal Son?

In this inspiring episode, we explore the profound journey of dreaming with God and how it transforms our lives.

Tune in to strengthen your faith and ignite your conviction to pursue the dreams that God has placed in your heart.

Most dreams start off with the end in mind and as much as that can build anticipation and hope it can become very discouraging along the line. Many of us have been static in life because all we need to get there doesn't seem readily available. As real as that may seem the truth is that everythibg we need to get started is never far from us. It may not be the best but it will definitely get the job done. In this episode we discuss the value of discerning what is in Front Of You

Success is a feeling and an experience we all wish to have. We all love to have that taste of glory, celebration and recognition. It's something we should aspire to experience. As good as success is, it can become our greatest enemy and undoing. It's amazing that our success can be the reason why we don't succeed further. In this episode we discuss how to get the best out of success.

Everyone of us must have experienced one level of disappointment whether if it were personally or from others. It's one experience that can wreck the best of us. Many people get lost in the pool of disappointment and some never recover. Every storm has a way of being Navigated. There is a way out if you know the way and have the will. In this episode I share some of the disappointments I have experienced and how God pulled me through

Having the loyalty of people is one of the most precious gifts we can get from people but should we also have shared enemies? Should we inherit the enemies of our friends or should we end up choosing sides irrespective of circumstances?

So I was preparing to record an episode this evening and it just dawned on me that Dear Tyla will be 3 years tomorrow! It's been an amazing journey and one with many lessons learned. In this episode I share a few that can help you in your own endeavour.

Being a believer is one tough journey. Many times we feel that our allegiance to God exempt us from some certain things but in reality it makes us even bigger targets. Also there is this thought that being saved absolves us from every responsibility. The truth remains that the Lord delivers us from the the burdens of life by not only taking away the issues but I stilling His own demands on our lives! In this episode we delve in to the reality of our faith walk

Life is lived by references. Whatever you magnify becomes your reality. Faith is not just built on knowledge but on the emphasis of a particular conviction. Every aspect of life has a corresponding example and it is your responsibility to choose the one that you desire

In life we may go through seasons where we doubt the validity of our dreams and passions. In those times we begin to feel that we probably made mistakes or God isn't interested in our own lives. In this episode I share a very personal story and also a testimony that God has not forgotten any promise He made. I hope you find encouragement to believe again!

It's been a while that I shared anything on Dear Tyla. So much has happened and I've decided to share... Here is a bit of my heart.

There are so many voices in this world. So many people have a lot to say and suggest. In such a world as ours it's very possible that we tilt towards believing the opinion of people but what is most important is our convictions. Every opinion is a suggestion that has the potential to be wrong. We must define what our convictions are because they ultimately define our decisions and they in turn define our reality.

Jesus you love me too much oooo... I'm sure you know the response already. Excess Love is such a beautiful song by Minister Mercy Chinwo. I remember how it trended for a certain period and oh my it blessed us. People deserve love in lavish amounts but can we love people too much that it hurts them and damages them? It's important to remember that love has many dimensions and one of it is discipline and restraint. In this episode we discuss how to avoid living people in excess.

It takes a lot to get me to live someone but in this episode I share a very deep secret that would probably get me married soon enough and hopefully some of us can use the same principles for ourselves... This episode is a fun one though

How many times have you fallen in love? How many X's do you have? For some of us our past relationships had good moments while for others, our past relationships were dreadful. In this episode we talk about the necessity of dealing with the past, both and good and bad and how ignoring it can wreck a beautiful experience

Happy Valentines Day to you all... So I don't have a Val but decided to come up with a fake Val story... Ente into my world of imaginations...

Have you ever asked someone out by mistake? Here is my story of how this happened and it's pretty hilarious. Imagine the many things we miss out on just because we are not bold enough to ask.

In this episode I share about my Culture and some of its peculiarities. In turn I discuss how our culture shapes our identity.

If there is one thing I have come to realise causes the greatest level of disappointment is when you don't get the results you desire from a thing. The truth is if we consistently depend on results to motivate us we may struggle to be consistent in our dealings. There must be something greater to fuel our passion in life and that is purpose. In this episode we share why purpose is so important and why it should be prioritised over results

In this episode we discuss the reality that Heaven truly helps men. As it is important for us to live right and do right there may be times that we act out of order. In such moments we feel guilty reaching out to the Father but our solution lies in running to him.

Being a fan of super hero movies one of the many powers seen in them is the ability to deflect bullets or stop them from penetrating heros. This is a truly great ability and one that we can use in our personal lives. In this episode we discuss developing tough skin in this new year so that the world around you doesn't affect you in anyway...

Have you ever tried to remember certain things and details and sadly seems to never remember it existed? This happens a lot and it can be frustrating. As frustrating as these things may be it can sometimes help us as as recalling certain things can be extremely painful and detrimental to our progress. In this epiosde we discuss the benefit of forgetting certain things so that we can actually make progress.
