How this whole journey started
On August 3, 2024, during a Bible study with one of my mentors, I posed a question that would ignite a significant shift in my spiritual journey: "What is your daily routine?" His response was both simple and profound. Each morning, he begins by asking God for a "secret of the day." This concept, though unfamiliar to me, immediately resonated. It seemed like a fresh perspective—one I couldn’t ignore.
Curious, I probed further about how he approached this practice. He described a serene ritual: sipping his coffee on the porch while asking God for the day's secret, then patiently waiting for a response. His conviction was intense, yet his method appeared remarkably straightforward. Despite this, I found the idea intimidating and continued to ask questions—about the timing of the answers, the significance of the location, and what to do if no secret was received.
The study ended, but I was left with an unsettling sense that I was missing out by not seeking these divine insights daily. Determined to explore this, I decided to try it myself, the very next day.
The next morning, while praying at church, I asked God to reveal a secret to me...
To my amazement, He did. The experience was exhilarating and eye-opening. For too long, I had complained that I wasn't hearing from God. In truth, the problem was my lack of consistent engagement—my failure to ask God to speak directly to me is why we were not communicating properly.
As astonishing as it seemed, the revelation was simple: the key to uncovering these divine secrets is to ask for them. Yet, this practice requires patience. We live in a culture that craves instant results, and many of us struggle with waiting for a response. I like to call it a microwave society or a problem with the expectation of instant gratification.
One of the first secrets is that sometimes, the answers take time, and the willingness to wait is crucial.
Moreover, it’s important to understand that there truly are no hidden mysteries beyond our grasp. As Ecclesiastes 1:9 states, "There is nothing new under the sun." Everything we need to know is already accessible; the so-called secrets are merely those that God has yet to reveal. There are only two reasons for this delay: either you haven’t asked for the revelation, or God is waiting until you are ready to receive it.
This journey of seeking God's secrets is not just about discovering hidden truths but about developing a deeper relationship with Him. It’s about embracing the process of waiting and learning to hear His voice in the quiet moments.

My mission is to transform peoples perspective of a SECRET from "something hidden" 2 "something that is unknown by most but is valuable when revealed"
