DO NOT BE A PRISONER OF EXPERIENCE

As I was wrapping up my service year, my uncle desired that I relocate to the United States to pursue my Masters Degree while I also get to grow in Ministry. Great plans. I had to explain that I am called to serve the call of God in Eruwa. I did not know what was on my uncle’s mind until […]

WEIRD INSTRUCTIONS THAT PRODUCED WONDERS

A dear teacher shared a story once: Some years ago, he was in the queue at his bank to withdraw from the Automated Teller Machine. The Holy Spirit told him to go to another bank to withdraw the money. It felt weird. First, the other bank would mean extra charges. Second, he would have to join another queue again.  He […]

“I WAS DOING MY ASSIGNMENT”

I knew when my girls came in from school. They would come into my office and greet me before they went on to do any other thing that they needed to do. But I heard their voice when they arrived, but did not see my girls come in to greet me.  About an hour later, Danielle walked to my office. […]

ARE YOU TRACKABLE?

In the era just before mobile phones became popular, my mum travelled to see my sister at the university. She returned with great joy, and I heard as she shared with my Dad:  Upon arrival at the school, they went to look for her in her hostel. When they announced her name over the Public Address system, another student came […]

RELATIONSHIPS CAN DRAIN YOU IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS

I sat with my long-standing associate, and we made a list of all the places and meetings we would normally attend. I asked him, “Which place added the greatest value to us in your estimation, and which would you recommend that we go to more in the new year?” He did not hesitate to mention two places. It was the […]

NO EVIL WILL COME NEAR YOU

Recently, Dad reminded me of something very unique and reassuring: He used to drive a Nissan Primera. He would normally park the car under a cashew tree in front of the house.  One evening, it was quite stormy. It did not occur to any of us that he should move the car. When we woke up, we saw what amazed […]

PLEASING GOD: THE ULTIMATE GOAL!

There was an interesting night that we were having some difficulty resolving our disagreements. It was one of those nights that the atmosphere grew cold, and it seemed like it would remain that way. Suddenly, we heard our neighbours’ voices at the back of the house. We looked out and saw they were trying to kill a snake. I rushed […]

ANYTHING IT TAKES FOR THE GOSPEL

Back in the day, while I was still an undergraduate, I would invite friends to join me in meetings in the land of Eruwa. At times, I was the host. At times, it was in my parents’ church.  On one such occasion, I had the honour of hosting a friend. When we got to town, he had a necklace around […]

THE POWER OF TIMELY SEEDS

A dear brother in the faith shared about how the Lord asked him to send a ridiculously small amount to our father in the faith. He felt it was too small. He summoned up strength and obeyed the Lord. He got a call from our spiritual father who was surprised that he sent him a seed in Covid. He prayed […]

HOW THE HOLY SPIRIT SAVES YOU FROM STRESS

Earlier in the day, as I walked from the living room into the bedroom, I noticed a small eraser on the floor. I had a prompt in my spirit to pick it up and keep it. I told myself, “I will pick it up later.” I never did.  Later in the evening, Danielle made a mistake in her homework, and […]
