A dear father in the faith gave me an appointment to see him. I honoured the day but I sent messages to get further details. I got no reply. I had to travel back to base without seeing him. I sent some follow-up messages. Some weeks later, I needed to send him another message when I realised that he sent […]
My friend shared a story of how a random woman showed up at their door and asked his Mum that she wanted to see a Doctor. Well, she mentioned that she needed some financial assistance for her boy in school. He did not know her but went in to envelop an amount to support her. A few minutes later, the […]
When I spotted what this daughter of Zion wore to the wedding ceremony, I asked her what happened that she wore such a revealing dress. Her answer was to blame her tailor. “Pastor sir, it is my tailor that made it that way. I did not see it until today”. However, it was not too long afterward, that I realized […]
A member of the church was asking another member some years ago- Does the pastor see your status? Because if he sees this your status, I am sure by now you would have gotten a message from him! What was the issue? She was indecently dressed with her cleavage out and she paraded it on her status. Christianity and indecency […]
Some years back, I kept looking for the key to the car. I searched everywhere I could. I did not find the key. Then I decided to check the car itself. I discovered I had locked the key in the car. Fortunately, Dad had a spare. He gave it to me so I could retrieve the key but not without […]
Some months ago, we were having an appraisal meeting about our weekend service. There was a time during the service when the generator went off. It was not the first time it was happening. No one spoke about it because we knew we had a lot on our table. The head of the technical team just said, “Pastor, we would […]
We were attending a conference. Right after the Word session, prayers began. It was so intense. At that moment, the Lord told me to walk to the altar and kneel. I hesitated for minutes. Why? How can I be all dressed up, and sitting in a special area in the church do such a thing? Why would I allow people […]
Just as we were about to head to church on Sunday morning, Danielle asked me, “Daddy, we have prayed right?” I said, “Yes we prayed at 5.30 am but you were still sleeping”. The next thing she said shocked me, “So I woke up late again”. I was awed. Her definition of waking up late was missing family devotion. Her […]
The first time I would drive through a city and spot my image on a billboard was in 2016. As a young minister, the feeling was different. It felt like an accomplishment. I even wanted to keep a picture of it. The next time I would have such an experience was five years after. I got calls and messages from […]
I was having a meeting with a couple of proteges and I focused on those who had left Nigeria for other nations. As we interacted over their spiritual growth, one common trend to all of them was “Pastor, our prayer life is not as strong as before”. I knew something was not right. It took some weeks but a statement […]
