“That his line will continue forever and endure before Me like the sun.”
Psalm 89:36
As I stand on the threshold of my 60th birthday, stepping boldly into the sixth floor by the grace of the Almighty Architect of the Universe, this verse resonates with a depth I can no longer ignore.
It is not just about a promise to David, it is about heritage, continuity, and the unbroken arc of destiny.
It is about a life preserved, guided, protected, and uplifted by divine hands even in the darkest valleys.
It is about a lineage that God Himself has sustained through storms, trials, victories, and reinventions.
I look back at six decades of life, and I see only one truth:
God has been faithful.
He has kept me.
He has preserved my name.
He has planted my feet on paths where I should have stumbled.
He has turned setbacks into testimonies.
He has ensured that my line, my identity, my destiny, my purpose, continues to shine like the sun that never fails to rise.
At 60, I declare with gratitude and renewed strength:
My lineage will endure.
My purpose will endure.
My voice will endure.
My impact will endure.
If the sun does not retreat from the sky, neither will the grace, favour, and covenant of God over my life retreat.
As I enter this new chapter, I do so with reverence, not for my power or wisdom, but for the God whose mercy has carried me to this moment.
To God alone be all glory, honour, and adoration.
Because without Him, there would be no story to tell, let alone a legacy to endure.
