PLACES YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO STAY (2) – Micah’s Shrine 1

I was having a conversation with a minister a while back and I realised that every one of his thoughts and words revolved around money. It was simply about the physical attractions of ministry. I had to warn myself that I would never be like that. A dear teacher once said that a minister of the gospel has no business […]

PLACES YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO STAY – “NEAR SODOM”

At a point, I realised that when you watch a video on social media, there would then be series of videos that will show next or will be suggested. Sometimes, after watching a live prayer session, the next suggestions were quite suggestive and unedifying. It was so tempting to stay on skits. There are places you must never be. Some […]

WEIGHTY QUESTIONS (2)- “What are you doing here?”

I came out one morning and I saw some of my sons and daughters waiting for me right at my door. The first question that leapt out of my mouth was “What are you doing here?” Why did I ask that? I did not expect to see them that day at all. They came to pull a surprise on me. […]

WEIGHTY QUESTIONS Part 1- “Where are you?”

HOW YOU TREAT PEOPLE IS AN IMAGE OF WHO YOU ARE AND NOT WHO THEY ARE

He spoke with entitlement. He believed that the way he treated the person and the issue was normal. He would not allow anyone to speak to him anyhow. He replied to every abusive word with a dose of his own also. I felt his pains but would not choose his ways. I asked him, “Can a Samsung Remote Control work […]

I MISINTERPRETED HER KNOCKS

I needed to catch some rest and I wanted to stay away from the children for a while. I got into the room and closed the door. After a while, I heard Olive calling “Daddy, open the door”. I thought it was one of her tantrums or an attempt to get Dad’s attention. I did not realise that she was […]

NEVER SAY WITH PASSION WHAT YOU ARE MEANT TO SAY WITH WISDOM

We were having a friendly talk over dinner when we remembered an incident that happened. We had a bad generator and Irewamiri was not happy about it. I told her that night, “Do not let it get at you. Let’s rejoice in the middle of it all”. We had a good laugh when we remembered how quickly matters degenerated into […]

EVERY TIME YOU ARE ANGRY, DO THIS!

We were in the middle of a conversation. Irewamiri said something that got me angry and I decided to hold my breath. She did not realise it though. I walked away from the place where we were having the conversation. I paused and spoke these words to the Lord: “Lord, help me to choose the right response in the middle […]

WITH THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, YOU CAN BUILD YOUR MARITAL BOND

We came back in that evening. Irewamiri walked into the kitchen to get our dinner ready. I was tired to the bones and I felt entitled to some rest. At that moment, the Holy Spirit said, “Go and help her in the kitchen”. I obeyed. It turned out to be a great evening of bonding. With the help of the […]
