YOU DON’T NEED TO LIKE YOUR PASTOR

I was in a conference for ministers of the Gospel. One of the panellists was asked a question of how he had been able to sustain a life of discipline in Ministry. His answer has not left me. He said, “I have a Pastor”. You will not understand the weight of what was said until you think about the fact […]

WHO CHALLENGES YOU ABOUT SEX?

Our very first visit as an intending couple to my Spiritual Parents was a tough time. The first question that my fiancée (as she then was) was asked made us heave a sigh of relief. The question was simple but profound, “Has he slept with you?” She responded in the negative. And the next thing was “Tell us now so […]

WHAT YOU GAVE UP ON

Irewamiri let out a sound of joy. She said to me, “My vegetables are sprouting again”. She went into the small vegetable bed and began to mention the different ones that were sprouting to me. Something unfortunate happened weeks earlier. In a bid to get rid of weeds in the compound, we also got rid of her vegetables unknowingly. They […]

“YOU WILL OUTGROW HIM”

I was speaking to a dear sister some years back. I noticed her spiritual growth as her Pastor and I was excited about it. Every Pastor loves a growing sheep! I told her the honest truth about her courtship. She had been talking about the man in some previous conversations. I told her, “Can I tell you this? The pace […]

YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LATEST INFO

Around 3 am that morning, I woke my wife and said to her, “Our travelling plans just changed. We head straight to so and so place”. I told her I picked that impression just now as I prayed. She agreed. Upon arrival, it did not take up to an hour to know why the Lord spoke to my heart about […]

GRANDPA’S WALL-CLOCK

We love our holidays at Akure. It was one of the high points of the year for us. The ambience of Vining College has not faded a bit. There was however a mystery about Grandpa’s wall clock that we needed to solve. Every hour, Grandpa’s wall clock with its huge pendulum will open up and a bird will come out […]

SITTING WITH THE AUTHOR

We were visiting with my spiritual father. At the family devotion in the morning, we use the devotional written by him. At that moment, I realised that there was a huge difference in reading what he wrote and sitting with the author himself as he shared and blessed us. Friends, you can read the Bible without knowing the author of […]

“WHEN SUBMISSION IS TESTED…”

About four years ago, I was attending the ministers’ seminar of my spiritual father’s annual convention. The morning sessions were just amazing. As we stepped out of the auditorium one of the mornings, Bishop spotted me and said, “Son, wait to see me”. I went ahead to the waiting hall of the Ministry’s Secretariat and I waited. I waited for […]

THERE IS NO COMFORTABLE TIME

When we got into the city to commence ministry, I had to keep an appointment. We needed a property to use. As I sat on the chair in that office, I knew I had to share the good news. I did after a struggle. As a matter of fact, I shared the gospel before I mentioned my request about the […]
