IN MARRIAGE, SACRIFICE FLOWS BOTH WAYS

Just a few months after our wedding, we realised that Irewamiri was waking up with backaches. We did not know what the matter was for a while. Eventually, we realised it was our mattress. We decided to swap it with a lower bed and a softer mattress. Her complaints about backaches disappeared. We were glad. We thought the problem had […]

DO NOT LET THE DEVIL REINTRODUCE YOUR SPOUSE TO YOU

After we had exhausted a particular fund we would use for the home, I transferred some money to Irewamiri. When I told her, all I heard was “Okay”. At that moment, my mind went into research mode about the “Okay”. I began to ask why the response should be a mere “Okay”. What happened to “Darling, thank you”? As I […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING 10

At a season in the ministry, we went through a storm. Some of those who were really close and dear to me did things that hurt me. Some had to part ways with the ministry.  It was quite a rough phase. God held us through but not without a test. One day, I was driving into town and passed by […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING 9

A dear father in the faith made a reference to one of my posts while he taught. Someone called me and informed me about it. I went into the natural overdrive- I called those who serve in the media team of the ministry to get the recording. I instructed that they get that particular portion of the teaching and send […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING (8) 

Just at the threshold of responding to God’s call upon my life, one of my very dear friends said to me, “Pastor Temi, I know you are going to do ministry in Eruwa while some of us are heading to corporate jobs. Please, do not call me for small things.  When there is a need, call me for big things. […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING 7

We had trusted the Lord for a new car for a while. Eventually one beautiful night, we got the blessing of a lovely new car. We rejoiced.  It was a relief for trips and movements. It was our own little miracle. Less than three months afterwards, the Lord told us to lay it down and sow it as a seed. […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING 6

As I prayed that evening in my office, I was seeking the face of the Lord some hours before our midweek service. We had started the Ibadan outreach. Then the Lord spoke, “You are the one to move to the land of Ibadan.” I looked round immediately,  I saw the very lovely office table someone had just given me as […]

THE TESTS OF THE CALLING 5

We experienced quite some miracles during the building of Wonderland 1. God showed up in many amazing ways. One day, while the project was ongoing, I was alone in the office and the thought came to me to get the building project file from the Administrative Office and do some calculations as to the amount that has been spent so […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING (4) 

When we were having our building project sometime in 2021. We were still at the foundation stage of the work, the filling was taking more truckloads of sand than we envisaged.  Upon completion, the bill had risen more than we budgeted. God always shows up but I had to pass a simple test. We needed about seven thousand naira to […]

THE TESTS IN THE CALLING (3) 

In the early days of church work, we had our midweek service. There was no one on ground to set up our venue. I took up the task of cleaning and setting up the chairs. I did it with all joy while I also prayed for the service.  While I was cleaning, the Lord said to me, “Do you know […]
