WHEN GOD ASKS YOU TO GIVE

I was speaking with a dear brother a while back and we touched on the subject of giving. He said to me, “Pastor, do you know what God just taught me about giving?” He said, “God said to me- ‘Anytime I ask you to sow a seed, I am not the one in need, you are the one in need’”. […]

BE COMPETENT. BE PROPHETIC. BE DARING.

Right after the six weeks of School of Ministry training, my phone rang that night and the voice on the other went like, “I am so and so. My wife just concluded the discipleship training from your ministry. Sir, I am calling to say thank you and please, can I have your account number so we can send you a […]

IN CRISIS, DO NOT PLAY SMALL

Just as declared by the government, we shut down church building. There were a lot of things in the pipeline that also needed reinvention. One of it was the proposed training on ministry. We already had a few people show interest. We moved the classes to social media. We realised there was at least one advantage- students now had a […]

THE MINDSET OF THOSE WHO GO FAR!

We were just two working in the Ministry office when the church started. We had a very hectic day in the office preparing for a meeting. The next day when I showed up at work, I was alone. I called the other person and he said he wanted to rest a bit because of the volume of work we had […]

NO WORRIES! NO LAZINESS!!

We were preparing to shop for our first baby. Honestly, we were trusting God for more. Some weeks to delivery, while trusting for financial blessings, God sent us gifts of new cloths. Her wardrobe was almost filled up. While preparing to shop for our second baby, God sent us a box load of baby cloths. The person was even telling […]

DON’T STRUGGLE WHEN THERE IS HELP

I had a bottle of freshly squeezed juice and Olive loved it after tasting it. She wanted to have more but the bottle was tightly shut. She began to struggle with the cover. Everytime I reached out to her so I can uncover and help her, she holds tightly to the bottle and keeps crying. When I collect it with […]

WATCH YOUR WORDS IN TOUGH TIMES

We had to camp teenage students sometimes back. It was seven weeks of a lot of sacrifices- time, sleep and even meals. At a point, we had to take all the foodstuff we left at home to the camp. I got a report that one of the teens showed ingratitude. While trying to correct him, I said, “Even we are […]

FAVOUR COMES AS OPEN WINDOWS

Late last year, in the middle of making a major decision about a purchase, I got a unique opportunity – the seller brought down the price by about twenty-five percent. While trying to make a final decision about it, I heard my father in the faith teaching and he said, “Favour comes as open windows and if you do not […]

DO NOT LET THE “MOSQUITO” PERCH (so it does not bite)

I was studying at night when I noticed a mosquito was having a field day around me. Before I knew it, I noticed I had gotten two spots from a bite I did not feel initially- one on my legs and another on my arm. I stood up and looked for the mosquito repellant cream. I rubbed it on myself. […]

DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH FUEL?

I woke up at night and realised that water had stopped running. The normal thing to do was to get to pump water but there were two challenges: First, there was no power supply. Second, there was no fuel in the generator. We ran out of fuel the previous evening. Night seasons come in life’s journey and you must be […]
