One late evening while driving out of a narrow side street, I had an interesting experience. I was already quite close to exiting the street when another vehicle drove in from the main road. I beckoned to him to kindly reverse a bit so I could pass. He was initially hesitant but eventually obliged. As I drove past him, he […]
That afternoon in 2011, a well-respected man who was genuinely concerned about my decision to go to Eruwa for ministry asked me, “Temi, but how are you going to survive? You will need money for yourself, and when you get married, you will need much more. How will you do it?” I could pick the fear and concern in his […]
I had spent the day waiting on the Lord. Just before breaking my fast that Saturday evening, I had an instruction from the Lord to hold on till after service on Sunday. I pushed through. About an hour after service, one of the ministers walked into my office and said, “Sir, we had an accident on our way back from […]
While growing up, we had an uncle who lived with us. We were still quite young and in primary school. Whenever he noticed that we were close to him, he would cover himself in a red piece of cloth and hide behind the living room door. Once we opened the door, he would come out making strange sounds.

It was the 4th of October, 2011. I heard the Lord say to me, “Son, every company builds its factory where the raw materials are. Go to where I have sent you”. I remember my blue travelling bag that housed my wig and gown. I could not imagine packing it aside for the rest of my life. I dropped a […]
A father in the faith shared the story of how he had to intervene in a family crisis. The family was dear to them. The husband had been unfaithful. He slept with their housemaid. The wife works out of town most of the time. It was messy. However, they succeeded in preserving the family and restoring the union, or so […]
Some few months after hosting our spiritual parents in Eruwa, my spiritual father said to me, “Your people are like a sponge. They drew as much as they could. I had to spend a lot of time on Saturday in prayer so I could be a blessing to our church on Sunday”. I smiled and said thank you profusely. That […]
There was a missionary who took ill while on the mission field. His health deteriorated, so they had to fly him to his home country. The medical doctors did all they could, and it seemed as though there was no solution in sight. The missionary made an interesting request. He asked that he should be taken back to the mission […]
One day, the beloved one who manages one of my handles reached out saying that I was being attacked online after they posted the devotionals. The trolls were coming hard. Out of concern, she asked, “Pastor, should I pull down the post?” I had a good laugh and said to her, “Is that post the truth of God’s Word?” She […]
We were ministering in the South-South of our nation. I travelled with my entire family for the meeting. It was a great time out for the young ones. During the day, while we prepared for the meeting, the church had a team that picked up the girls and took them out for sightseeing, colouring and other fun yet edifying activities. […]
