THE GREAT “COUNSEL” I DID NOT FOLLOW

The call of God into ministry in the land of Eruwa got clearer during my service year. I had shared with some people I respect and I had been counselled accordingly:  “Temi, there is no need of going to Eruwa immediately. You can live in Lagos or Ibadan. You practise as a lawyer or you pick up a job. You […]

THERE IS STILL HELP IN GOD 

During one of our ministry projects, we trusted the Lord for some money. The deadline was in forty-eight hours. I asked the procurement team to get ready after we had prayed about it.  I still laid before the Lord that night, committing it all to him. I danced and praised him. The first miracle was that I woke up later […]

YOU CAN LIVE ABOVE THAT WEAKNESS (AND SIN)

As a teenager, I had issues with laziness and procrastination. I would watch plates piled up in the kitchen and it would look like a mountain. I would run away wishing someone else would have done it before I got back. It was always still there.  I would pile up clothes for days. There were times that I would pick […]

God’s Divine Tailoring and the Quarry of Character Transformation

Irewamiri decided to sew a new garment for our daughter for her third birthday celebration. The moment I announced to Olive that Mummy was sewing a dress for her, her face lit up. Irewamiri then told Olive to try on the clothe to ascertain its fitness before finishing it up. As soon as Olive got into the dress, she began […]

“WE ARE NOT FRIENDS”

A few weeks after Irewamiri told me “Yes”, she went cold on me. She had come around to see me and we were to have some discussion. But as we had the conversation, I realised that she was not free with me. I asked her calmly what the issue was. She said to me, “You are not my friend.” She […]

…BEFORE YOU CRITICISE…

We finished a major meeting some years ago and we had an appraisal meeting of the planning team. In the meeting, a team member began to fire on all cylinders about what went wrong.  When he was done, I asked him, “Did anything go right at all?” He said, “Yes! But so and so was not rightly done.” I said […]

THE PATHWAY OF THOSE WHO WILL FAIL MORALLY

Irewamiri and I had questions to ask our dear teacher and mentor about the finances of a young family like ours. He looked at us and said, “In my few years on earth, I have seen some of my friends fail morally, and all of them admitted that they first started by failing financially. Any man who fails to be […]

PHOTOGRAPHERS AND PARTY PICTURES

There are many times that I have attended functions and I had to tell commercial photographers not to bother taking pictures. Despite all the caution, there will still be some who took my pictures without asking. They begin to look for me after the event to collect and pay for pictures that I did not give my nod to. At […]

“DARLING, I DID NOT COLLECT THE MONEY”

As we drove home, Irewamiri said to me, “Darling, I did not collect the money from them. I blessed them and returned it to them”. She was referring to an honorarium she had been given.  I was prompted to ask for her reason. Her response taught me a huge lesson. She said, “Darling, I had no money on me. I […]

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 […]
