It was concluded already that we were going to request for something that we needed. We had set money apart for payment. It was deeply needed. In the place of prayer, the Lord said “Do not ask for it”. It did not make any sense but we obeyed. Some months later, the Lord said, “Ask for it now”. We went […]
Olive was lying beside me. She had been sleeping for a couple of hours. When she woke up, turned and sat down, the first thing she picked up was her mum’s Bible that was beside her. It did not strike me until the Lord spoke to my heart through that action- “Never stop having a heart like this. Let my […]
I was teaching somewhere about 10 years ago and I was inspired to say to them, “Tomorrow morning, you will return with testimonies that you can hear the Lord”. The next day, I met two young girls at the entrance weeping. I asked what happened. One of them mentioned that last night she told God, “God, send me a word […]
I hated it whenever Dad calls me at night to pick up his Panasonic Radio in his room. The dark corridor between the living room and his room was always a place of dread for me. It became worse when a brother closed to our family died. I would imagine that ghosts would just emerge from the walls and appear […]
A couple of years ago while we were still kids, there was a very tough season in the country- people used saw-dust to cook. It was a season of dire needs. Families went through huge hardship.

After two years in ministry, I noticed a pattern. Because of the setting where I pastored as a young man, I had a different congregation almost every year- virtually everyone is looking forward to greener pastures in cities. Friends, it troubled my heart. Folks come in raw and just right after they begin to catch spiritual sparks and you begin […]
I was driving for a conference about two years ago when Road Safety officials stopped me for routine checks. They told me that I had a worn tyre. I acknowledged it as true but explained that I would change it as soon as I had the means. The officer I explained to still penalised me. Another officer then came saying, […]
In the early days of ministry whenever you see me dance to the entrance of the church while service was midway, it was a strategic way to check whether more people were on their way to church or not. I kept looking out of the window. There was an occasion that I followed up intensely on five people who came […]
This is about my marriage and who I marry- I had requested to see him so I could inform him about the direction I sensed about the woman to marry. That lovely Friday morning in the month of June 2013, I announced to him what I sensed about a young lady in church. He told me two things that I […]
