I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE EASY

Of all the crazy things my wife and I had done in our walk with God, we took it to a new level sometimes back when we gave away something that took us our entire marital life to build. Tough but we did. I was at work one day when my wife sent a text that she needed me at […]

SPILT PEPPER

It was a beautiful afternoon when mum sent me to buy and grind some pepper from her regular supplier. I borrowed Ayodele’s (my childhood friend) bicycle and had a good ride to the pepper seller. I diligently tied the pepper to the carrier at the back and rode all the way home. I returned the bicycle; untied the small bucket […]

THE BIG BAG WE CARRY

Some years back, I was in one of those meetings where you could already sense poor organization but you still sense divine leading to be a part of. It was a tough week at home financially. I took a soft loan from my beautiful wife for fuelling. It was a long-distance trip and a vigil. I sorted my own accommodation. […]

HOW ABOUT THE YOUNG LADY…?

I was already on my way to my Spiritual Father’s office to deliver a message from my Dad. I did not think it was important seeing him. I simply texted that I would drop something in his office. Then I got his reply, “Son, come tomorrow. I want to see you”. I simply replied in the affirmative. I had to […]

IT IS NOT THAT HARD (Dealing with Emotional Attachments)

I knew I had fallen in love with a friend of mine. We were already having conversations that showed our pursuit of trying to find common ground. We were at that stage of finding it difficult to say “bye” or “goodnight”. I knew her movement and she knew mine. One night, I knew that this would not end up in […]

CALLED AND STRANDED 7 (This is How to Change Seasons)

I have been writing for about 6 years. But three years ago when the Lord would breathe afresh on the writing ministry, there was a heavy demand God placed on me. The instruction was so tough that I cried obeying God. It takes just one instruction to move from one season to another. But right after then, the instruction about […]

CALLED BUT STRANDED 6 (A Series on the Calling)

We were attending a Pastors Conference on Ministry Finance in 2018 and this statement has not failed to leave me- “We get into debt in ministry when we are not patient enough for what the Lord is bringing our way”. Dear called one, you are in process. Do not allow what you do not see yet lead you into things […]

CALLED BUT STRANDED 5 (A SERIES ON THE CALLING)

I told my associates that “We will never joke with people who have served with us in ministry no matter how they left us or how they view us today”. The only thing we would remember about them is the sacrifices they made while they were with us. We will always honour them. That singular decision has kept me free […]

CALLED BUT STRANDED 4 (Series on the Calling)

On his birthday, the Lord told him “Go and see Temi”. He did not even know I was back fully in Eruwa. He came and told me what he had in the place of prayer. Well! the only thing I had to say to him was the assignment I had in Eruwa. In the midst of his journey, he became […]

CALLED BUT STRANDED 3 (A SERIES ON THE CALLING)

One morning I got a call and it was followed with a huge alert in my account. The moment I saw it, I knew it was not the kind of seed you eat. I transferred it to the ministry. Days later, I saw the note of the transfer stating “for your personal use” but still I know that there are […]
