WORD, SEASONS AND EMOTIONS

In December 2017, as we prayed in Iseyin trusting God for what He will have us do in the New Year, the Lord spoke to me: “Begin to publish the devotional and distribute it for free”. I froze. I noted it. I did not have the finacial capacity to birth or sustain it. This was two weeks to the end […]

THE FROZEN ORANGE DRINK

I walked to the deep freezer to pick a drink and Danielle was right at my heels. She noticed the bottle of orange drink. She wanted it. I simply told her, “It is frozen and you cannot have it. Wait for it to defrost”. She took the bottle from me and took it to her mum. Her mum repeated the […]

“I FEEL DIRTY”

After taking time to teach on Prayer and the Ministry of the Holy Spirit, the young lady desired this awesome gift of God but there was an issue: “Sir, I feel dirty” I paused and said to her, “That is why you need the Holy Spirit. He is the refiner’s fire. He will refine you and burn out the dross”. […]

THE BURNING COAL

Dad spent his toddler days in the village before his uncle took him to the city. Back in the days, whenever they go to the farm and they needed fire to cook. They would lift up their eyes to check for where smoke signs can be found. Someone runs to fetch fire from the source of the smoke signal. The […]

I AM SORRY LORD FOR YESTERDAY

I was preparing for service that night when I stumbled on these words in my bible, “I am sorry Lord for yesterday”. Definitely, that is not a bible verse. It was a thought I penned down some years back as I studied the word. It jumped at me once more. It was right under these verse: “I have found David, […]

OUR NEIGHBOUR’S BICYCLE

Our childhood friends had lovely bicycles at different times. We would join them to ride. They had other lovely games also. Some of them were gifts from their relatives. One of those days, I went to Dad to ask that he should also buy us bicycles too. Daddy’s response became a life mantra, “Son, we give you what we can […]

HANDLING HURTS

I looked at my proteges that night and said to them, “I pray the blessings of the Lord more for those who hurt me”. They obviously needed more explanation. I did not know when these words dropped from my mouth, “Every hurt is a test for me. The Lord checks my attitude. He checks my heart”. Honestly, offence will surely […]

HER CRY BUT MY DECISION

As I stepped out to put on the generating set, Danielle ran after me. I said to her, “You are not dressed. You cannot come out. Insects can bite you”. At those words, I slammed the door shut. She burst into tears. She cried but I knew what was the best for her. No amount of tears would make me […]

THE MISSING CHEQUE BOOK

When I got to the office that morning, it was obvious I needed the cheque book. I searched all over. I could not find it in my office or in presumed places. I went to the other office in the ministry, I searched again. It was nowhere to be found. I went back home. I did not find it. The […]

DRAWINGS FROM THE FUTURE

That night, he told me that he remembered something. His first few weeks in town when he took a prayer stroll in the morning, he would pass by our house. Unusually, everytime he passes by, he would feel like knocking on the door and asking if he could be accommodated. He constantly sensed a pull to our house. By the […]
