IF YOU ARE CLOSE TO A PASTOR

We sat in the car that day and he said to me, “Pastor, today I want to apologise. For the past few years, I never saw or accepted you as my pastor. Today, I want to say I am sorry. I am accepting your role as my pastor”. I understood perfectly. And it was not absolutely his fault. For the […]

DIGNIFY YOUR PASTOR

I attend a monthly ministers seminar with my Spiritual Father. I had occasion to leave earlier that day so I sent him a text very early in the morning apologising that I may exit while he was yet teaching because I had to receive a special guest for our meeting in the church that night. I ended up staying until […]

DEFEND YOUR PASTOR

Throughout the meeting, as my Spiritual Father taught us and led us to pray, I could see that he was a bit tired. He had been on a national tour leading a prayer movement. It was a hectic season. Just before we wrapped up the meeting. I went to fetch my cheque book and wrote him a token. As I […]

HONOUR FROM THE HEART

I was watching a dear father teach sometimes ago. It was on a YouTube channel. While watching, my wife called that she needed my attention. I did something that shocked me. I said, “I am sorry sir” before I paused the video and went to see my wife. It dawned on me later that I was not even in his […]

PROOF OF GROWTH (7) – WALKING IN LOVE

When I got her text message recounting some of the moments she had been through in her life’s journey, I rolled over from the bed to the floor and burst into tears. Rather than feel disgusted, the love in my heart skyrocketed to an amazingly great level. Love is not pity. Love is proof that you have encountered the resurrection […]

She said glowing things about the person who started it like she was told. I asked for the name of the person who started. She said, “I […]

LEGACY POST – WHEN DADDY CAN PRAY

I could not keep it to myself anymore. I drove all the way to Dad’s office and confessed to him I was in love with a young lady. He asked for her name and description. He kept smiling. We prayed together and trusted God for His leading. Dad did not say a word. Two days after my wife said “Yes” […]

PROOF OF GROWTH 5- ENDURANCE

As the doctor treated the bullet wound on my back, he said to me “You will feel a small bite on your back soon. Endure the pain. We will be close to finishing the stitching”. I felt the small bite but let out a deep groan. It was painful but I knew it will soon be over. One of the […]

PROOF OF GROWTH (4)- SELF CONTROL

I kept telling Danielle not to scatter the pack. Well! She did a clinical finishing of dismantling both the pack and all the contents also. Just when she was done, I asked her to begin to arrange all that she scattered. She looked at me soberly. She did not know what to do. Friends, it takes more effort to build […]

PROOF OF GROWTH 3 – KNOWLEDGE

My younger cousins wanted their mum to give them a new baby. They told their Dad what they wanted. Their Dad told them that he has to feed their Mum with enough “Eba” (that is thick Garri). My cousins began to give their father their “Eba” every time they eat and beg him to feed their mum well. Innocence is […]
