IF YOUR DAD OR MUM HURTS YOU

The first thing she said to me blew the wind out of my sail. She had lost her mum and had been raised by different hands. She said to me, “Pastor, I wish it was my father that died.” Beloved, we cannot deny the fact that there are children today who have been grievously hurt by their parents. Some saw […]

DO NOT BE UNAWARE!

A dear friend and brother asked me about a very challenging issue. I gave him a response, “Sir, I know why I must never get offended on this matter, sir. I am fighting for a generation, and I must always be aware of that.” A young man wanted to quit a program where he was learning because of how he […]

THE BLESSING OF THE RIGHT PEOPLE

I was having an in-between session chat with some other ministers during a conference when one of my friends said, “All I wish I can take from you are your men. Give me those men of yours.” We had a good laugh, but it was a way of complimenting the amazing commitment of men working in the ministry.  Beloved, one […]

“YOU CANNOT HANDLE IT YET”

Danielle was playing some educational games on her mum’s tablet. Olive was observing and dancing to the music coming from the games. Some minutes later, she began to reach out and grab the tablet from her sister. While she struggled to get it from her sister, I called out to her and said to her, “Olive, you cannot handle it […]

USE THE NIGHT

A young man reached out to me some time ago and said to me, “You dropped a note for me some years back with the words, ‘Great men make use of the night.’ Sir, that brought a shift in my life.” He backed it up with a Thank You seed. See these verses: Ex. 14:20- “…throughout the NIGHT…”Ex. 14:21- “…all […]

PLATFORMS ARE TESTS

One of my dear ones had an invitation to teach in a church. When he returned, what I heard gladdened my heart as a pastor. Someone said to him, “You are not the same person I used to know.” This was in reference to the capacity with which he ministered. Beloved, when doors open for you, they are your tests. […]

YOUR SPIRITUAL WALK AND “FIGHTING FOR YOUR RIGHT”

About ten years ago, my sister-in-law came to Eruwa a few weeks before delivery. During her stay, her office requested that she needed to come and get some things fixed. It was meant to be a short trip to and fro for a maximum of five hours. I thought I could catch up with office work. As the day turned […]

INTIMACY DOES NOT COME CHEAP

When mobile phones were just getting popular, there were just a few people who had phones, and there were a few places where we had connections; I remember my parents would drive quite some distance to find the network to make calls. It was a sacrifice. When it improved, I remember hanging the phone on the window at the exact […]

BURDENED YET BLESSING OTHERS 

Some years ago, I was seated by my daughter, who was admitted to the hospital. It has been days of physical, financial, and spiritual demands. At the same time, I was doing my best to help a dear one in another city find help through a naughty case that was almost becoming a criminal. It was not one of the […]

YOUR OBEDIENCE; ANOTHER’S REJOICING 

I was returning from a trip to the South-South about ten years ago. A dear one picked me up at the Airport in Lagos. He was to drop me off at the park so I could pick up a cab to Ibadan en route to Eruwa.  Just before we got to the car park, he pulled out a pack and […]
