DEAR FATHER, LEAD LIKE A PRIEST!

I could not keep it to myself anymore. I drove all the way to Dad’s office and confessed to him I was in love with a young lady. He asked for her name and description. He kept smiling. We prayed together and trusted God for His leading. Dad did not say a word.  Two days after my wife said “Yes” […]

“DADDY, YOU TAUGHT US…”

Danielle walked into my room with an activity book in her hands. She said, “Daddy, I am sorry. I accidentally tore my book while I was drawing on it”. I told her, “Girl, that’s fine. Be careful next time”.  The next thing she said was what shook me to my bones, “Daddy, you taught us that when we do not […]

WHEN YOU ARE “TEKELLed”

On this day 15 years ago, I drove my mum to church for a women’s meeting. While I waited for her, I decided to read and study in the car. I still remember the Green Nissan Primera (Station Wagon) parked under a cashew tree in the church compound. That evening, God told me eight things about my life’s journey. Some […]

WEIRD INSTRUCTIONS THAT PRODUCED WONDERS

A dear teacher shared a story once: Some years ago, he was in the queue at his bank to withdraw from the Automated Teller Machine. The Holy Spirit told him to go to another bank to withdraw the money. It felt weird. First, the other bank would mean extra charges. Second, he would have to join another queue again.  He […]

NO EVIL WILL COME NEAR YOU 

Recently, Dad reminded me of something very unique and reassuring: He used to drive a Nissan Primera. He would normally park the car under a cashew tree in front of the house.  One evening, it was quite stormy. It did not occur to any of us that he should move the car. When we woke up, we saw what amazed […]

IF YOU CARRY A VISION BUT SHED SECRET TEARS

It was a season of many questions that I could not answer. I was still a young single pastor trying to find my way in the first few months of planting my feet in Eruwa. I stayed indoors and cried trying my best to pull through the season.  But God is merciful. He will never leave us without a witness. […]

IF YOU CARRY A VISION AND THERE IS A SETBACK 

In the second year of ministry, we needed to formalize a process. We had spent quite some money and we awaited a positive response. We waited and heard nothing. After a while, I got a message that we have to start all over again. I was broken. I knew how valuable the money of God’s people is. It pained me.  […]

IF YOU CARRY A VISION BUT ARE DISCOURAGED

In our first year in marriage and my third year in ministry, I woke up on a Sunday morning and focused on the morning routine just before service. After I had fully dressed, I suddenly became discouraged. It was so bad that I told Irewamiri that I was not going to church that morning.  I could not place a finger on what […]

MY PARKING ERROR AND THE AVOIDABLE CRASH

As I returned from work that evening, I spotted my neighbours (doctors) in front of their house. Instead of driving home, I drove to the front of their apartment which had a little slope. I got out of the car and began to gist with my neighbours.  In the middle of our conversation, I saw the car descending the slope. […]

“THAT IS NOT THE TEMI I KNOW”

During my university days, a dear brother met one of the young ladies who was a friend of mine (those undefined friendships) and asked her if she was not going to Pastor’s house (my parents were pastors). She first responded by telling him that no one was around except Dad and Mum. He then mentioned that “Temi is back now”. […]
