HAVE YOU KNOCKED?

We were preparing to hit the road for the day. I was the first to get into the car. While I was settling down at the wheel, I heard a knock on the door at the passenger’s side. It was Danielle. As I opened the door, she said to me, “Daddy, I have been knocking the door”. I responded, “I […]

STOP LOOKING OUTSIDE…!

For a long time, whenever we wanted to confirm if there was power supply, we would have to look at the house nearby. Many times, there would have been supply but we would still be running our generator and burning fuel. All that changed when a beloved one installed a device that indicates when there is power supply in our […]

SHE WANTS TO SEE DADDY

We stepped out of the house to clean the car. The next moment we already had the cry of Olive. When we asked Danielle what the matter was, her response struck a chord. She said, “She wants to see Daddy”. Beloved, God will never ignore a hungry soul. Hunger pulls the divine in your direction. Hunger is the extra pull […]

THE FREQUENCY OF HEARING

I wanted to pass across a vital piece of information. I picked up my phone but there was no network. After a while, the line rang through but it was difficult communicating. I had to call again when we got to a place where the network was great. Beloved, just like the phone network, there is a frequency where you […]

IF YOUR TEACHER CALLS YOU “FRIEND”

Danielle walked into my office and met me having a conversation with a dear protégé. She came in excitedly and my protégé gave her the “High Five” hand gesture. Daniele went on her knees and greeted him without giving him a “High Five” in return. She then came to hug me and then I said, “Give a High Five”. She […]

“MUMMY, I CANNOT SEE MYSELF”

We all sat on the bed. The mirror was right opposite us. Irewamiri and I were in the middle of a conversation. The next thing we heard was Danielle saying, “I cannot see myself”. We were initially confused. Then it struck me that she was trying to see herself in the mirror. Then I responded, “You cannot see yourself until […]

THEY SPOILT THE CAR (of the Guest Minister)

They called that it would be hard to host me but the Lord still said to me that I should go for the meeting. I raised my own transport and bills for the meeting. I even had to support their meeting. They needed help with some things. I was generous to have them use my car. Well! They returned with […]

OUR FIRST MISSION TRIP TO ERUWA (A Prophetic Charge and A Blessing)

It was the 15th of December 2006. I came with 28 friends from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife to the Land of Eruwa. We were all undergraduates. It was on an evangelistic mission. It was called Night of David- a night where giant-killers were raised (the exact words we used). The first thing we did when our buses stopped at about […]

A STRONG HEART IS NOT A JOKE (Countdown to 34- Lesson 9)

At different points in my journey in Eruwa, I would feel like “Can I just be somewhere else?” It is tempting to think that I would do more somewhere else. I face the temptation of comparison. The devil would always whisper that “Turn stones into bread”. Just like the brothers of Jesus told him, “If you know you are called, […]

VISION COMES AT A COST (Countdown to 34- Lesson 8)

For the first time in our six years of marriage, we had reason to vacate our home for seven weeks because of vision. A lot happened in those seven weeks- we stretched, we had to keep the glow alive, we took ill but got better. However, the time spent camping students and impacting those young ones would be a part […]
