A beloved one reached out and said, “I should have done this two years ago. My heart has not been at peace but I would love to do it today”. He went ahead to apologise for an action of his that the Spirit of God had been dealing with him about. One of the warning signs you must never ignore […]
Whenever you walk in on my daughter doing what you have warned her not to do, she announces by herself, saying, “Daddy, I did not …” By then, you know what she did. Her wrong deed has become her megaphone for announcing her good act. It is an alibi of the flesh. It is the same for a man already […]
My mentor taught me a profound life lesson, “If your friend buys a car or a second one while you have none, do not wonder why he cannot give you one. Buy him fuel as a gift for his new car”. Why? It is a dangerous slope when you cannot rejoice at the success of others! This trick of the […]
One of the challenging jobs of a pastor would likely be that of confronting people with tough questions and challenging them to holy living. Sitting with that young man in my office that day took a lot of courage. When I asked, “Have you been fornicating?”. His eyes dropped, but his answer reflected the deficiency that hell fed on as […]
Years back, I had just asked a senior friend that he hold me accountable for my walk on sexual purity when he told me a story: He was working in the same office with the wife of a dear friend of his.

I noticed that in a bid to catch some rest off work, I spent time from one social media clip to the other. You click on one video teaching that blesses you.

One of my sons in the Lord who is just growing in the faith mentioned that he had been plagued for a season with the fear of death in his life and his family. He had become fearful. There was even pressure (due to his background) to make some rituals to appease a strange deity. I laughed and asked him, […]
As I stood in front of our house some time ago, I noticed that there was an old cutlass close by. It was a very strong one. I told the person with me that “Kindly keep the cutlass away from the entrance”. He wanted some explanation and I said to him, “It would be inappropriate to supply a burglar with […]
As a young couple, we were trusting God for the fruit of the womb. At a point, it became a worry. We did some hospital visits. Then, we decided that we would not allow worrying about what we were waiting for deny us the enjoyment of what we had- we had one another! We became really joyful. Irewamiri began to […]
One of the things I wouldn’t say I liked while growing up was the annual twenty-one days fast. As a pastor’s child, it was our annual convention month. We were encouraged to fast. Well! It is not as though there would be cooked food anyway. It was always tough, so I came up with a “strategic fasting plan.” As a […]
