The “C” s THAT WILL HELP YOU (3)- CONTENTMENT 

I wanted to visit a dear one who has done well with himself. He lives in a high-brow area and drives ‘powerful cars.’ He is still quite young. I always desired to be in his space to challenge him about his faith- he was more into making money than he was about his spiritual journey.  Before I left the house, […]

THE “C” s THAT WILL HELP YOU (2)- CONSISTENCY 

I have been writing and sending out messages for the past eight years. It was a simple practice of journaling that became a ministry to bless lives through writing. Today, this writing ministry is a blessing to many globally, with many streams flowing from it.  One quality that you cannot joke about is consistency. You must be consistent. Consistency is […]

THE “C”s THAT WILL HELP YOU  (1) 

A beloved one reached out to me. Someone called him to request that he carry out a business task. The person had introduced himself as someone who had a relationship with me. He wanted to seek my opinion. I did not hesitate to caution him to deal with restraint. Why? I knew another businessman who had complained that he owed […]

THE FOCUS OF THE ASSIGNMENT

In my first year in full-time ministry, I asked my grandpa in the faith a simple question: “Sir, if you are to start ministry all over again, what will be your three major priorities?”  He responded with a question, “Son, are you trying to buy land now?” I told him, “No, sir”. He asked another, “Are you trying to buy […]

BEWARE OF WHAT CAN CORRUPT THE ASSIGNMENT

In the second year of ministry, we were preparing for a meeting called Bold and Beautiful Conference. All hands were on deck the evening before the meeting. When we were done in church, a beloved member who had a car decided to drop off those who lived some distance from the church. After they left, there were three of us […]

EMBRACING UNBREAKABLE FOCUS IN THE FACE OF DOUBT AND FEAR

One of the persons that I was really scared to inform that the Lord had called me into ministry caught me red-handed on the way. He was our very cerebral neighbour and a dear father to me. He was a visionary with long-standing records and achievements. I did not know how I would tell him that I would not be […]

DILIGENCE AND DIVINE IMPACT

A month after the church was planted, we were preparing for our first major meeting. I had one other person who worked in the office as a volunteer. We worked late into the night sorting materials.  The next morning, I got to the office at the usual time, but the beloved volunteer was not yet in. I waited for about […]

ATOM AT 12 SERIES: RESILIENCE- AN UNBREAKABLE SPIRIT 

Some months into the work of ministry in the land of Eruwa, I woke up with a high spirit. I strolled to the office, singing songs. One of them was: “I’ve got the joy of God in me. I’ve got the spirit of the Son of God. I’ve got the joy of God in me”.  It was an interesting time […]

THREE AREAS TO BUILD FAITH IF YOU ARE CALLED (PART 3)

In my very first year of ministry, I got an invitation to preach at a youth convention. I went for the meeting and began to sound like a foreign preacher. I wanted to do all that was possible to impress my host. I do not remember what I preached about to date, but I can never forget how childish that […]

THREE AREAS TO BUILD FAITH IF YOU ARE CALLED (PART 2)

I returned to my office that afternoon and met a note with a phone number attached. It was from one of my teenage mates in our local assembly. I reached out, and he paid another visit.  He said, “I was praying on my birthday. God told me you were in Eruwa and I should come and see you”. While I […]
