DON’T MISS YOUR OPEN DOORS

It was a Saturday evening. I was still an undergraduate. I was spending some time with my Aunt. It was the first time I was visiting her family. She said to me, “Temi, we have a 10 minutes section of tits and bits in teens church. I would love you to share something with the teenagers”. I spent virtually the […]

HOW SHE GOT A SCHOLARSHIP

We were in the pastoral council meeting when the issue of a young girl was raised. She needed support for her academics. The key that opened the door for her was simple- She had constantly improved in capacity and character. Almost everyone in the council knew how weak she was academically and is a witness to her academic turnaround. The […]

THE THURSDAY FRIED RICE

Two of my dear ones would always get a steady supply of fried rice from Irewamiri every Thursday. Once she made our meals, she puts them into consideration. They were still bachelors. One relocated while the other got married. One Thursday, Irewamiri said, “Now, no more fried rice. He has outgrown it”. I had a good laugh but learnt a […]

DO YOU WEAR CLOTHES TO CLASS?

Years ago, I walked up to my pastor after service to exchange greetings with him. At that same moment, a young girl also walked up to him. Pastor did not blink an eye at what she wore. I was already a bit shocked. Pastor said to her, “I heard you have gained admission into the University now”. She replied in […]

She woke up one morning around 3 am and the first question she asked was, “Daddy, is it time to pray?” She was asking about our family devotion. Friend, what is the first thing that comes […]

HONOUR GIVES BIRTH TO HONOUR

On my way to preach, the Lord reminded me of a vital lesson I learnt years back listening to the Father of the Faith who pioneered the ministry that invited me. The Lord then instructed me to hold on to a “Thank You” Seed. I obeyed as I was instructed. Interestingly, this father in the faith got to hear about […]

TWO EQUATIONS THAT YOU MUST NEVER BE

I was teaching my young ones in the college. While trying to explain the concept of time, energy, wisdom and seasons to them, we came up with two simple equations. First: Time Plus Energy without Wisdom equals to the life of a lot of young people. What does that mean? A lot of young people have time and they have […]

TAKE NEW TERRITORIES PROPHETICALLY

For a while this year, we decided to spend time praying for the influence of the church to extend to one of the sectors of our community. It had been a battle for almost four years. We took it seriously this year in intercession. Few weeks into interceding, the barriers began to crumble one after the other. We began to […]

FOCUS ON YOUR ASSIGNMENT

A young man walked up to me after a meeting. He said to me, “Pastor, you have to forgive me”. I was surprised and wondered what he did wrong. He went on to explain some things that had happened that I was not even aware of. When you have known the direction that the Lord would have to take in […]

TRUST THE PILOT

We were travelling by air and it was raining just at the point of landing. It was a bit turbulent as we descended. I told my brother by my side that, “Can you imagine that we trust the pilot to get us to the ground safely even when we cannot see him?” He got the message. No one was running […]
