DEAL WITH THIS ATTITUDE EARLY

When I handed over the honorarium to a dear brother and friend, he said to me, “No sir. Please do not bother”. I explained to him that I came up with a principle that has become a guide to us. We would not exploit friendship. We honour the grace of God on his life and receive him in his office. […]

LOVE CORRECTION

We were having a casual discussion early one morning at home. Irewamiri pointed my attention to something about the ministry. I realised that my attitude was defensive. I walked to her later to ask her, “Darling, I am sorry. I think my response then was defensive. Can you kindly explain to me what you meant with that statement? I would […]

“ARE YOU SURE I WANT TO DO THIS?”

Just some few hours into labour for Olive, Irewamiri began to say, “Are you sure I want to do this?” The pain was changing her stand and testing her resolve. I did not say a word to her. I only listened while I held her intermittently. She went ahead to do it. Beloved, the pains become more when the vision […]

THINGS TO SETTLE BEFORE MARRIAGE (5)

When we returned from our one week break after the wedding, someone complained that there were people who did not get to eat at our wedding. My response was simple, “Can I have a list of those who complained that they did not eat so I can know the list of people to unfriend. Both my wife and I do […]

THINGS TO SETTLE BEFORE MARRIAGE (4)

I had a list of those my wife must meet before we get married (asides my relatives). We made quite some trips. It was tough but it was necessary. At a point, someone told us that we have to reduce our trips but I explained that it was key that my wife met all the people concerned. One of the […]

THINGS TO SETTLE BEFORE MARRIAGE (3)

She felt so terrible. She still could not believe that she actually fornicated. Her mind was troubled. She knew she had to settle it with God. She prayed till she sensed a relief. She then called the “man in her life”. She began to express regrets and said such would never happen again. The man smiled and said to her, […]

THINGS TO SETTLE BEFORE MARRIAGE (2)

I got several counsel ever before I asked my wife to marry me. My spiritual father said to me: “Son, there are two things that are very important. First, be sure that you heard God. Second, do not marry a woman who does not believe in God’s vision for your life. If you do, you will be frustrated for the […]

THINGS TO SETTLE BEFORE MARRIAGE (1)

I was packing my bags to travel that morning. A young man had been trying to see me. I told him we could see briefly. He came in with all excitement. There is a lady he has spotted and would love to marry. Well! I was excited for him too. But when he went on and on about what roles […]

CLARIFY TO AVOID CLASHES

I had quite some great folks around me when the ministry was about to start. They were amazing people who were giving all they could to ensure that we build a great foundation for the ministry. I had a tough conversation with each one of them. I asked the question, “How far do you want to go with this vision?” […]

LESSONS FROM VISION (2)

Today makes it eight years of Full-Time Ministry in Eruwa: Just after I settled it within me that I was heading to Eruwa for full-time ministry, I was on a public bus when a call came through. It was a friend I met on Facebook and I had not met in person. She asked me, “What are you planning to […]
