As a university student, I was not rooted in any local church or fellowship for almost three years. I would go to a fellowship “as led by the Spirit of the Lord”. I thought I was really spiritual. I would be on my way to the fellowship I would normally [...]
Read MoreYears back, before ministry started, I walked out of my room after some moments of prayer, and I had a word from the Lord for the first person I saw. I said to her: “The Lord said to say to you, “Your Life is just about to begin, but there [...]

When the work of ministry began, I had the privilege of having a team of three people who showed commitment to the work. At one point, they got into different seasons of life, and two of them were the first to leave. They moved on to other matters in life. Some weeks later, the only person left also gave me […]
The thoughts in my head were not as smooth as the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos. The romance between the tyres of the car and the road inside Victoria Island explained the moment I was about to have- a face-to-face time out with my brother-in-law (to be) and his spouse. The best question of that night (in my honest opinion) was […]
I had a roommate during my first year at the university. He would stay on long phone calls and discuss very audibly. It was mostly conversations with his mum about vacation trips outside the country that he would not want to be forced to go to or an expensive gift a relative had sent him. We heard a lot of […]
Years ago, I had an appointment to keep with my grandfather in the faith. It was one of those days that I already knew would be a hectic day for him. At the waiting lounge, I decided to spend the time reading. After about two hours, it occurred to me that there was another minister of the gospel waiting also. […]
One of my fond childhood memories is of Daddy playing with us. It was always an exciting one. We would play mock boxing or even wrestling. Daddy would make a move like he was aiming for your face. As you attempt to block the face, his hand lands on your side. He would have a good laugh and say things […]
Irewamiri had gone for a camp meeting. I was home alone with the mighty seeds. We stepped out into the compound. The girls began to run challenging one another. I took advantage of the moment and shared a lesson with them. “Do you know that life is also a race? Do you know some people give up before the race […]
Danielle braced up for the kitchen task. She joined in washing the plates. On her first attempt, she had a slight cut while trying to wash a knife. I was somewhere in the living room when she came to show me the cut. She said, “Daddy, I am not washing again. A knife just cut my hand.” I felt sorry […]
That morning, Danielle approached Irewamiri with a request, “Mum, I want to start learning how to cook.” What a great desire. Olive would carry a doll (sometimes a teddy bear) and play the role of a mother without getting tired. They both have ‘children’ that they take care of. They would say things like, “Our children need to get ready […]
The day I was leaving Akwa-Ibom State after my service year, I remember that it was the Corpers Fellowship Bus that helped me to the airport. Amazingly, it was a full bus. I still remember the disappointment on the face of another colleague when she saw that the bus was already full. When we got to the airport, one of […]
I had an invitation to share at the Passing Out Thanksgiving Service of a batch of Christian Corp Members. I asked the Lord what to share about and the Lord said to ask them, “Are you Good to Go?” When I stepped in, there was a lot of excitement in the year but by the mercies of the Lord, when […]
