It was some few weeks to resumption at Law School. I was reading early that morning at about 3 am. The Lord whispered to me, “Son, there is a repositioning coming to the land of Eruwa, I want you to be there to reap the harvest”. For the next two years, I had arguments about the leading of God. I […]
Once the lockdown was announced, I knew there must still be a way that the people I am called to pastor would be trained. We moved a scheduled ministry training on WhatsApp. Every day for two months (except when we took a break), we had training. Eighteen of those I pastored went through it. Capacity was enlarged. But 8 months […]
My friend’s dad would not use cane on his them but his words were always weighty. His words would make you have a mental reset in few seconds. We dare not flout his instructions. Even though he is late now, his words and values still carry a lot of weight. We still remember his words till date. God asked Jeremiah […]
Baba asked me, “Son, what do you see in Eruwa?” I answered intelligently, “I see us controlling both the spiritual and economic climate of the city”. His response jolted me to life: “Son, choose one. If you chase the two, you will neither be an economic or spiritual giant you will get lost in between”. But the statement he added […]
After picking up the family from work, we stopped by in church office so I could pack my bags and then head home. The moment I packed in front of the church building, Olive began to jump excitedly in the car. Her mum said, “If you don’t allow her to get down and go inside the church, she will start […]
An elderly man walked into the first ministry office and said, “Barrister, I am glad you are now in town. We will begin to patronise you”. My response definitely was a shock to him. I was not in town to practise law, I was in town for the work of ministry. A bookstore in front and a back office that […]
I had not seen mummy in a long time. Since I would be passing through Ilesa to Akure for a meeting, I knew it was the best time for a stop over. I stopped over with good news- that week was when Irewamiri discovered that she was pregnant of Danielle and we await our first baby. This was June 2016. […]
“Temi, you can settle in Ibadan. Practise Law and then visit Eruwa maybe once a month for the work of ministry. When the Ministry becomes big enough, you can then move to Eruwa”. Those were the words of those who genuinely care about me. They had questions about how I was going to survive. But I knew God was saying […]
Dad played a lot with us while growing up. One of our regular games was ‘playful’ boxing. We still do some of these things. Dad would lift up his hand as though he was aiming for your side. While you try to protect your side, his hands are already landing somewhere on your head. We kept defending the wrong spot. […]
We were preparing to hit the road for the day. I was the first to get into the car. While I was settling down at the wheel, I heard a knock on the door at the passenger’s side. It was Danielle. As I opened the door, she said to me, “Daddy, I have been knocking the door”. I responded, “I […]
