STOP DISRUPTING DIVINE PROCESS WITH HUMAN IMPATIENCE

When my second daughter was a little younger, she would, at times, wake up at night and request to take a meal or just water. Oftentimes than not, she would retire into our bed. If you ask her to go to their room, she would disagree. What we get to do most of the time is to carry her right […]

YOU CAN LIVE ABOVE THAT WEAKNESS (AND SIN)

As a teenager, I had issues with laziness and procrastination. I would watch plates piled up in the kitchen and it would look like a mountain. I would run away wishing someone else would have done it before I got back. It was always still there.  I would pile up clothes for days. There were times that I would pick […]

HOW THE HOLY SPIRIT SAVES YOU FROM STRESS

Earlier in the day, as I walked from the living room into the bedroom, I noticed a small eraser on the floor. I had a prompt in my spirit to pick it up and keep it. I told myself, “I will pick it up later.” I never did.  Later in the evening, Danielle made a mistake in her homework, and […]

HANDLING STONES IN THE MEAL 

We were enjoying a great meal of rice, beans, plantain, and chicken. While savouring the sumptuous meal, my teeth had an unwelcoming crunch on a stone. I could not swallow the meal nor continue to munch on it. I stopped and walked from the meal to the nearest bin to spill the whole meal in my mouth. But I still […]

IT IS POSSIBLE TO LIVE ABOVE SIN!

A dear son placed an image on social media, and his friend responded with words that gave glory to God and turned a drug addict into a Christ lover. His story still delights me each time I think about it.  He was coming to church, but he was still struggling with addiction. He would leave the church to smoke his […]

BE A BLESSING AND NOT A BURDEN TO YOUR PASTOR

There was a season in ministry that I would wake up in the middle of the night praying about the church. A whole lot that I could not place my finger on what was going on. As I prayed, I would pause, sigh, and sometimes groan. It was like a divided house. There was gossip also flying here and there. […]

MUMMY’S COUSIN AND THE DILUTED SOUP

My mum shared a funny story with us some years ago. They had gone on vacation with her grandmother. Grandma would always prepare very rich “egusi” soup for them. It was always thick and full of fish. Once it was time for lunch while grandma was away, they would dish their meal and savour the delicacy.  But something strange began […]

YOU ARE A “DEAD MAN”

While teaching a class of young converts someday, I walked up to the first person and pinched him. He responded as he felt it. I went to another person who now knew what I wanted to do and pretended like he would not respond, but he did.  Then I asked them, “What if I pinched a dead man? Would he […]

FIGHT LOOSENESS

He walked up to me after service and said, “Pastor, I want to quit my training as an apprentice”. He went on to mention certain challenges that he was facing. He wanted to quit for those reasons.  I smiled and told him, “You are not going to quit. You have what it takes to endure till the end. If you […]

HOW TO BUILD A HABIT OF PRAYER

While growing up, we had a neighbour who loved dogs. Their dogs became the neighbourhood dogs- it was everyone’s pet. We had Jack, and we had Jill.  Jack had an amazing pattern. A few minutes to 4 pm every weekday, Jack would come to our door and wait- that was the hour my mum would leave for the church to […]
