For a while this year, we decided to spend time praying for the influence of the church to extend to one of the sectors of our community. It had been a battle for almost four years. We took it seriously this year in intercession. Few weeks into interceding, the barriers [...]

I once had a student whose mother came to complain about. She said, “I have not been around for a while. I travelled. It was on my return this morning that my husband mentioned that our son had not been sleeping at home. He only comes home to wear his uniform every morning. But he had not seen him in […]
I asked a dear brother, “What books have you read recently that has caused a significant change in your mindset and has impacted your life?” I left our little chat with two things- a reignited passion for reading and a list of books to buy. Books can be the difference between captivity and freedom. If you do not know what […]
While we spoke about life, my friend said to me: “Temi, the great changes we have seen was not because we took some great steps or took giant leaps. They were little things we decided to do that made a huge difference”. A little step can make a huge difference in the long run. Think about it, what begins as […]
I had a struggle in my mind whether to be vulnerable with my friend or not. I was at a point where I knew I had to make great financial decisions to live a great life. I did not want to appear like I did not know what I was doing. I eventually told myself that I was better off […]
I have a dear brother who is also a pastor. I would say to him that “Every time we talk, prejudices are shattered and light comes for things I need to get done. Passion is also reignited”. We would share on our ministry journey and every time I am done speaking with him, I just have an unusual hunger to […]
I had sent a text message to a very important personality- a father in the faith. I knew he would either call back or send a message in return. My phone would most times be placed on silent mode. However, because I did not want to miss his response or his call, I increased the volume on my phone so […]
The same day I made up my mind to fast and seek the face of God while listening to the messages of two of my God-ordained teachers, one of them called me. He spoke with the heart of a father: “Pastor Temi, I am just leaving the place of prayer and the Lord is asking me to say to you […]
I was late for a flight. By the time I arrived at the airport, the counter was already closed for check-in. Fortunately, I knew someone working with the organization. When he was trying to convince his colleague, the question the colleague asked was, “Do you have any luggage to check-in”. I quickly replied in the negative when I saw her […]
We were visiting with a dear sister and friend of ours. It was our first time there. The moment we entered her living room, I looked at her and said, “My sister, this is where you pray”. “Oh Yes!” She replied. The moment we walked in, I knew there was an atmosphere that has been created in that particular room. […]
As we passed by the bridge that was at the border to our town, Irewamiri said, “Wow, the water level has risen”. I responded that “It is because it has been raining”. When it rains, the rivers overflow. Naturally, the rain makes a lot of difference. The rain impacts the soil and causes dry land to become fertile ground. The […]
