APPRECIATE UNIQUENESS

A group of students in medical school were in one of their practical sessions. The consultant noticed one of his students holding the surgical instruments with such precision and expertise. Out of curiosity, he asked him, “Who taught you to hold the instruments?” All his mates chorused, “Congenital Surgeon.” He had watched his father perform surgeries for so many years […]

APPRECIATE AUTHENTICITY

For a while when I settled in the land of Eruwa for ministry, when friends reach out to find out where I am, I find a way to dodge the question or I simply give a general answer like, “I am somewhere in Oyo State”. When they say, “Is it Ibadan?”, my answer goes like, “Not too far from Ibadan”. […]

APPRECIATE ACCOUNTABILITY

A dear son in faith mentioned that as he was coming to see me that day, some thoughts were running through his mind. One of it was, “See how your wife wants to disgrace you. Why did she call to inform Dad of what you were struggling with”. His response to that thought made me proud but much more was […]

APPRECIATE YOUR PROCESS

As we walked out of the ultrasound scan room with a note of joy in our hands that we were expecting a baby, we walked into my childhood friend who is now a medical doctor. He was coming to share in the good news. After the initial excitement, he looked at my wife and said, “Ronke, on this journey of […]

APPRECIATE YOUR SEASON

A few months after I got into full-time ministry, I received a call from a dear brother who wanted me to join his train during his wedding ceremony. It was a role I would have loved to play with all joy. When I considered all it would take, I had to inform him that I would not be able to. […]

BUILD A CULTURE OF APPRECIATION

I had just returned from speaking at a teenagers’ meeting. I was asked a question that I would never have been able to answer. Fortunately, I was following a series of teachings from a group of sound teachers coordinated by a beloved sister. The answer I gave was from one of the notes she shared. When I returned from the […]

HOW TO BUILD A RICH WORD CULTURE IN YOUR HOME (5)

My mum-in-the-faith shared a powerful story some years back: When her first child was still a toddler, something happened. She had taken time to clean up the house. When everywhere was sparkling clean, she stepped out momentarily leaving her toddler son in the room. Before she came back, the toddler had performed wonders- her living room was already scattered. She […]

HOW TO BUILD A RICH WORD CULTURE IN YOUR HOME (4)

A dear one called to inform me about a challenge that was engulfing their marital union. It was obvious that the house was on fire. If care or caution was not exercised, guided by the wisdom of God, the marriage was bound to drown. I told this beloved one, “Would you please do me just one favour?”. Based on your […]

HOW TO BUILD A RICH WORD CULTURE IN YOUR HOME (3)

I requested bread and fried egg with sausages. When Irewamiri called me to eat. I settled down to it with great expectation.  When I got to the table, I noticed that she had forgotten the sausages. I settled down to eat without saying a word. I wanted to point her attention to it, but the Spirit of the Lord told […]

HOW TO BUILD A RICH WORD CULTURE IN YOUR HOME (2)

In the first few months of marriage, we had occasions to disagree. One of the questions I often ask Irewamiri is, “What is the Spirit of the Lord saying to you now?” She would not respond, and our disagreements would linger for hours. Oftentimes, after we had resolved the issue, I would go back and ask the question again. Her […]
