THE HOLY SPIRIT- YOUR PARTNER IN BUILDING A GREAT MARRIAGE (5)

We were having what looked like a great personal time of bonding as a couple. It felt like a really great time but then I had a prompt from the Holy Spirit to ask my wife a simple question, “Darling, is all well? Are you fine?” It would have looked like a great moment but there is someone who is […]

THE HOLY SPIRIT- YOUR PARTNER IN BUILDING A GREAT MARRIAGE 4

After a marriage-saving counsel from my spiritual Father, I developed a pattern of regularly giving to Irewamiri. I stuck to it judiciously. However, something interesting happened one morning. I had given a certain amount of money to her the day earlier. I was in the restroom when the Holy Spirit said to me, “Give her another money, exactly the same […]

The pressure began to build on Saturday night, but I did not notice it- it was a third party issue that was touching the cord of our family bond. By Sunday morning, it was at a head. For the first time in a very long time, our voices were rising beyond the walls of our room. For the first time, […]

THE HOLY SPIRIT- YOUR PARTNER IN BUILDING A GREAT MARRIAGE  2

We had a bit of a rough start to our marriage.  The honey was there but it was laced with some landmine moments. As we argued back and forth on issues, I would ask Irewamiri, “What is the Holy Spirit telling you?” In those days, she would respond with silence. (Most times, I knew the Holy Spirit was prompting me […]

THE HOLY SPIRIT- YOUR PARTNER IN BUILDING A GREAT MARRIAGE 1

I came back from work in the early days of marriage and my beloved wife had cooked an amazing meal—some lovely vegetables. There was just one challenge—there was fish on it. I rubbished the entire meal with my reaction. I told her straight away that I do not eat that kind of fish, and I assumed she should have been […]

GIFTS MUST NEVER BE TREATED ANYHOW

We were heading out that morning when I saw two small plastic-like objects in the car. I wondered what they were. Irewamiri explained that they were from Danielle’s wristwatch. She got a toy-like wristwatch as a birthday gift, and it was already falling apart. Some days later, I spotted the wristwatch under the dining table. Its strap was somewhere else, […]

HOW TO SECURE DIVINE GUIDANCE (6)

When we eventually secured the property we had trusted God for, the money we had saved up was not enough to pay for it. The first thing I did was to play music and dance before the Lord.  As I danced before him, I told him, “Lord, I desire we pay for the property without touching our savings”. What a […]

HOW TO SECURE DIVINE GUIDANCE (5)

We have an annual gathering of Sons and Daughters of my spiritual parents. It is a retreat-like camp meeting. In 2023, while in camp, we received direction about the expansion of the ministry.  It birthed the Ibadan work. In 2024, after spending four months in Ibadan with no permanent space, we were back again at the retreat. We got instructions […]

HOW TO SECURE DIVINE GUIDANCE (4)

In 2021, the Lord instructed that we should spend about four hours every Monday praying as a church. We called it the “Prayer Stretch”. It was a huge one for us. We obeyed the Lord. One such evening, I honestly did not know when the words dropped out of my mouth; I had said it before I realized it. I […]

HOW TO SECURE DIVINE GUIDANCE (3)

I was sitting with a dear teacher in a meeting lounge when she said to my wife and me, “You are both so meek. You make it very easy to teach you.” I sincerely appreciated the compliment and then told her, “I was not always like that, ma. I used to think it was just about being brilliant, and I […]
