YOUR HEART, HONORARIUM and HIS MAJESTY

I had a week of multiple preaching engagements. Asides from the honorarium from speaking, I had people who blessed me with seeds. I was super excited that some of the things I needed to get done urgently will be fixed. Then comes the Lord in His majesty. One after the other, the bulk of the money went as seed in […]

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 honourarium 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 […]

“I AM SORRY, THAT DAY CANNOT WORK”

We all sat at the table and I told Irewamiri that I would still need to step out that Sunday evening. She looked at me and said, “I don’t know about that dear. Sunday evenings are for us as a family”. I called the person I had an appointment with and requested that we talk on the phone briefly. Many […]

DO YOU WANT TO TAKE OVER THE PROJECT?

I had given a payment transfer deadline to the ministry office earlier in the day to make some transfers on the church building project. I told them I believe that what we needed would have been supplied by that time. Some few minutes to noon, I noticed that the account was still the same. I wanted to make a transfer […]

DON’T EVER TRY THAT AGAIN

I was working in the library. Before I could blink an eye, Danielle had gone inside a shelf and closed the door in a bit to hide from Olive. My fatherly instinct came on. I stood up and opened the shelf and gave them both a stern warning. “What if they tried this on a day no adult was close”. […]

THINGS THAT WOULD HAVE KEPT ME AWAY FROM OBEDIENCE (3)

After agreeing with the Lord that I would serve him in Eruwa full time, I had an opportunity for a three weeks break outside of the country. At least, that could help me have some reflection and retreat. While preparing to go to the visa office, the Lord told me that week, “Johannesburg, No! Go back to the place I […]

THINGS THAT WOULD HAVE KEPT ME AWAY FROM OBEDIENCE (2)

I had been in communication with my uncle. He had taken interest in me since I was a little boy. He loved my passion for the Lord and I was also a brilliant chap. We had some plans ongoing. During my service year, I was already following the script that I would join him in the United States. He was […]

THINGS THAT WOULD HAVE KEPT ME AWAY FROM TOTAL OBEDIENCE (1)

Once I spoke about the call to settle and plant a church in Eruwa after my service year, a dear teacher of mine said to me, “Temi, I know the dreams you have. It should not be a big deal working for a while in the city while you begin some Outreach work in Eruwa. When the work grows, you […]

PROPHECIES ARE FOR APPOINTED TIME

I was on my way from class in Law School, I heard the Lord say to me about two of my friends: “My children are meant for one another. They will deliver a message of hope to your generation”. I was shocked. I knew the lady was in a relationship albeit with one or two issues. I knew it could […]

WHO WILL PASTOR THE CHURCH?

Some few months into the launch of the work of ministry in Eruwa, a very close friend of mine sent me an application for a Youth Development Programme in the United States. It was to run for some months. I appreciated the kind gesture but I was forced to ask, “Who will pastor the church when I am away?” We […]
