UNDER YOUR BREATH

As it is our custom, every morning after morning devotion, we greet one another- smiles, hugs blessings and kind words flow. But that morning, my daughter would have none of it. She was touchy and moody. All the “Say Good Morning dear” did not work. Well! I said to the mum’s hearing that “In the name of Jesus, I rebuke […]

THE SLEEPING LIZARD

I stepped out long before dawn to spend some time praying. As I prayed with a torch in my hand, I spotted a lizard. It jolted me when I saw it. I kept shining the torch on it. It did not bulge. It did not move. That was my first time of seeing a sleeping lizard. It slept right at […]

THE PRICE OF REVELATION

Danielle was watching a music video on my phone but the battery was already low. After a while, the battery went flat and the phone shut down. My daughter walks to the charging point and attempts plugging the phone. I helped out. When the initial screen light came on, my daughter pulled out the charger but as she walked away, […]

MY BROTHER AND 2008!

2008 was a pretty tough year for my brother. The first of the incidence was early in that year when he had an accident. The Peugeot 505 he was driving did not survive it but he came out unhurt! Out of thanksgiving and support from parents, he got a new car. Few months later (08/08/08), he was working overnight in […]

DADDY, KEY!

Everytime we get close to the gate of our house, one of the ladies in the car with us would request for the key to unlock the gate which I always get to hand over. Danielle is now the new key-woman. Once we take the turn towards the gate, you will hear her say these words, “Daddy, Key!” I will […]

HE PRAYS FOR DANIELLE

My dear brother and family friend is a father of boys and he told me that his last boy constantly prays for my daughter. Every time he prays, he never misses to mention Imisi in prayers. And then he added that “Maybe…” We both had a good laugh. Friends, there is no harm in investing in prayers. It is an […]

DANIELLE HAS A MESSAGE

Danielle woke up and came to say good morning to Dad. She wanted to watch a video of a song on the phone titled “God’s love”. Then we had this conversation. Dad: Would you allow dad to send out a morning message first before you have the phone? Danielle: Yes! (I know she was still going to ask again for […]

T.E.A @7 – TO GOD ALONE BE ALL THE GLORY

March 11 made it seven years I was ordained a Pastor and today, March 18 makes it seven years that The Eagles Assembly had her first service. I remember the build up to our first service. I sat on that wooden plank as I chatted with two great brothers- one is still in TEA till date. We prayed. We worshipped. […]

THE DAY I CHEATED DANIELLE

When she woke up that night as usual to drink tea (actually chocolate), we discovered that we had run out of stock. Now, there was need to placate a crying child or else, there would be no quiet till dawn. My ingenious self came up with a grand plan. I remembered my daughter would not give you breathing space if […]

RIGHT WHERE YOU CRIED

My wife came into Eruwa as a corps member. All the way from orientation camp to Eruwa, she played the role of encouraging worried and crying colleagues. But when night set and she was all alone, she cried also. She could not imagine why a town could be as quiet as a graveyard at night. Smiles! I want to speak […]
