CHRONICLES OF SOUL-WINNING

We had spent days praying for our dear friend. We knew she would be coming to visit us. It would be our perfect opportunity to share the gospel with her. One of the things that we ended up telling her was this: “The greatest thing we owe you is the gospel of Christ. We would be terrible friends if we […]

I WOULD HAVE KICKED MY PREGNANT WIFE

I woke up in the middle of the night with a kick to the burglary proof right beside the bed. It hurts so bad. I was having a dream where I was kicking a dog away. As I focused on the pain and my wife woke up with consoling words, I realised what God just delivered us from. If I […]

“DO YOU LOVE DADDY?”

Danielle began to protest as we left her grandparents house. She wanted to stay back with her grannies. However, we had to head home. On our way home, we stopped to get some fuel. I turned and asked Danielle, “Do you love Daddy?” Her response was a shrug of the shoulder. I asked again and she shook her head and […]

BED WETTING TALES

I had some very interesting bed wetting tales as a young boy. What shall we say to the dreams that tell me I am already in the restroom or that I had run off the football pitch to a bush so I can now ease myself? I only wake up to realise that the restroom was still my bed. Did […]

THE MESS UNDER THE BED

I was home alone that evening and I decided to do some clean up while I prayed in the spirit. While cleaning, I had to lift the mattress in the room so I could replace the bedspread. I caught sight of different things that had found their way under the bed. Some of them were actually useful and some were […]

THE PARABLE OF THE MAN WHO DROVE ME

On the third day of my speaking schedule in the church, I chatted with the young man who had been picking me up every day at the hotel. I was deeply grateful for the great heart of service. I asked what his job was. He was working closely with a top government official of the State. Well! I was humbled […]

THE PARABLE OF THE FRIDGE AND THE DOOR

Someone close to our family was building in the community. He is an indigene but not resident in town. He sent some appliances that would be used to furnish the house he was building. One of them was a giant-sized fridge. It was quite huge. We had to keep it with us before taking it to the house. But there […]
