GOOD MORNING. GOOD AFTERNOON: THE MIXED GREETINGS OF DANIELLE

Every day Danielle wakes up, she strolls into the living room to greet her mum and I. She goes on her knees and says “Good morning sir” and “Good morning ma”. When she returns from school and steps into my office, she would still say “Good morning sir”. We began to tell her that it should be “Good afternoon”. Now […]

THE “PROPHECY” SHE REJECTED

Before we got married, a “prophet” insinuated that my fiancée would get pregnant before marriage. She did not have to think about it twice. She gave a response right on the spot that it is impossible and it will never happen. The “prophet” was shocked. It never happened. Friends, the primary way that God speaks to us is through His […]

“MAMA, WHAT DID YOU SAY?”

While preparing, Danielle was already dressed for the day in her school uniform. Her Mum looked at her and said: “You look beautiful”. Guess what my daughter said? She said, “Mama, what did you say?” When her mum said it, she would repeat the question and add, “Again”. I was indoors and I smiled as I listened to their conversation. […]

DON’T BE A PRISONER OF EXPERIENCE

As I was wrapping up my service year, my uncle’s desire was that I relocate to the United States to pursue my Masters 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 […]

In a second, I noticed that she had placed a pack of sugar on her laps not knowing that it had been invaded by ants. We took the pack of sugar […]

A friend was narrating to her that she had an emergency some days back and sent a text message to some of her friends to kindly stand in the gap for her around 1 am. She then asked her friend, “Why did you not text me also?” The friend told her, “It is difficult to reach you on a normal […]

HOW TO MAKE DECISIONS IN CRITICAL TIMES

At a point in our marital journey, we had to make a decision that will bring a major shift to my wife’s business. It was to be a huge sacrifice. She would have to shut down some things to pick on new roles. I had prayed and known this is what to do. But then when I told her about […]

THE MIRACLE IS HIDDEN IN THE LITTLE

The issues became overwhelming that evening- she poured out her heart and I listened but I did not know when tears began to drop. We eventually resolved the issues while we went ahead to teach some protégés that night. The following day, without hesitation, we raised the issues with our mentor and teacher. He gave a simple counsel that changed […]

IF YOU ARE STARTING OUT SOMETHING NEW (Ministry, Business and others)

My spiritual father taught me something critical especially when it comes to starting out a vision: He said you must pray in the right people and at the same time pray out the wrong person. I learnt later that what the devil cannot stop by opposition or persecution, he tries to stop by infiltration. If he cannot stop the work, […]
