Over the past six years since the inception of this blog, there has been a steady increased in the number of viewers.

This blog was created in March 2014 and in that year there were 4,192 viewers.

The following year, 2015, the viewers increased to 9,776. Then in 2016, there was a boost of 18,177 viewers.

The year 2017, the viewers increased to 28,259. This figure was almost doubled in 2018 when this blog received a total of 49,278.

Then in 2019, we reached a whopping 61, 325 viewers. I declared that in 2020 this blog will hit over one million viewers, in Jesus’ name.

Thank you, Lord!

This is a tremendous milestone for this blog and I give the Lord all the praise and glory.

This blog has been an outlet for me to share all the great things that God has laid on my heart.

In 2011 when I sought the Lord earnestly for deeper intimacy with Him, He graciously poured out His Spirit of wisdom and revelation on my life (Ephesians 1).

Since then the Lord has been revealing His Word in a real and meaningful way.

As He revealed I wrote and shared on this blog.

Creating this blog is the initial part of the destiny that God has called me to do.

The Lord encouraged me to return to writing, which was my first passion, and in 2017 I published my first book Harm Not Th Oil And WIne.

The book is on Amazon, but I am currently re-editing to publish in ebook and audiobook.

I enjoyed writing on this blog and I enjoyed the friendship and fellowship that we develop on this inspiring blogging community.

We shared, we encouraged, we debate constructively and we laughed together.

Thank you, my friends, for a tremendous year of togetherness!

Final words of encouragement for 2019

(As you read, click on the links and it will take you to some of the popular posts each month).

When you look back over the past year and see what God has brought you from to where you are now, you can agree that God is truly amazing.

You can never lose sight of this fact!

You can rest in the assurance that you are not serving God in vain.

As long as you choose life and you remain at the feet of grace you will achieve even greater success in the year 2020.

2020 is the year to look forward to new and better things. It is a year to forget the past and launch out into the deep into a new horizon.

Your self-esteem, your manhood, and femininity will be invigorated.

With these few words, I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year.

One final prayer of the Word of God over your life.

Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalms 19:13-14)

AMEN!

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God. Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us. In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction. Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds. You can learn more about Beverley’s life and testimony on her website becomingtheoilandwine.com. You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine. View all posts by Beverley
