There was a day my Dad called me for a conversation. When I walked into his room, he looked at me and said, “Where is your wife? You are both one. She should be a part of all I am telling you now.” He understands the power of becoming one [...]

Once I responded to the call of my trainer that day, I knew I had to hand over the things that I was handling. I called my associate and informed him. I handed over meetings and some important appointments to him. The house was not in disarray while I was away. I returned impressed with how things were done. First, […]
My trainer called me a couple of years back and asked me, “Pastor Temi, what are you doing on so and so day?” I was wise enough not to reel out my schedule. I simply asked, “Sir, what do you want me to do for you on that day sir”. He eventually sent me to a meeting that treated me […]
When we needed a new generator to power a small freezer, we looked up a trusted brand and bought one that was advertised to carry out the function. Unfortunately, it could not operate as we wanted to. We had to negotiate to return and replace it with another that had a higher capacity. If you posture yourself to have a […]
As we worked in the kitchen, this dear father looked at me and said, “Temi, this is the lesson for you, whatever you will not accept at the peak, deal with it now. Ministry is about sacrifice and obedience”. We are trained how to manage failure and come out of discouragement and many others but rarely do you hear anyone […]
A dear father sent some people to the market to get him tomatoes. There was just one spoilt one among the pack. It began to leak its juice into the whole pack. By the time they realised, a lot of the tomatoes were contaminated and spoilt. The association should keep in life is key. Your association is never neutral. It […]
A man of God shared a powerful story: He was in his study preparing for a major meeting. In the middle of preparations, the Holy Spirit said to him: “Go and wash the dishes” He was hesitant initially but he eventually obeyed. As he washed the dishes, the Holy Spirit said to him, “From now, you will begin to operate […]
We were visiting Lagos a while back and just as we approached Lagos, I engaged Google Map. Even though we had been to that location several times, we did not want to rely on our personal experience. Google map at a point said it had found a better route and asked if I would want the alternative. I accepted. It […]
I had a week of multiple preaching engagements. Asides from the honorarium from speaking, I had people who blessed me with seeds. I was super excited that some of the things I needed to get done urgently will be fixed. Then comes the Lord in His majesty. One after the other, the bulk of the money went as seed in […]
As we drove home, Irewamiri said to me, “Darling, I did not collect the money from them. I blessed them and returned it to them”. She was referring to an honourarium she had been given. I was prompted to ask for her reason. Her response taught me a huge lesson. She said, “Darling, I had no money on me. I […]
We all sat at the table and I told Irewamiri that I would still need to step out that Sunday evening. She looked at me and said, “I don’t know about that dear. Sunday evenings are for us as a family”. I called the person I had an appointment with and requested that we talk on the phone briefly. Many […]
