THE RAT IN A BUCKET

I was preparing a teaching about how Elimelech went to Moab and got trapped in his needs. I needed to use the restroom. As I got into the toilet, I noticed a small rat playing in a bucket. It was nibbling at some tiny things in it. It was obviously enjoying itself. I carried the bucket and it kept nibbling […]

CHILDREN CAN PRAY TOO

My siblings and I hated it while growing. As young as I could remember, Mum would get to your bedside between 5 am and 5:30 am. She will give you a gentle tap, sprinkle water on your face and wake you up to pray. At times, I sleep off again and the “rod and the staff” comfort me while the […]

When I eventually saw him, he gave me life-saving counsel that positioned me to make great decisions about marriage. If you are a child of God, do not live […]

DON’T EAT IT!

As we left the meeting that night, I was given a pack of food. By the time I checked out what was in it, the temptation began. On a norm, I do not eat late at night but when I saw it was a pack of small chops, I began to tell myself that there could be an exception to […]

DO NOT BUILD RESISTANCE

As I got to the car that morning, I picked a prompt in my spirit man to pray. I said a word of prayer and got into the car. A prayer burden was already on me as I drove for the trip. I tend to drive faster when I am praying behind the wheels. At a point, just before a […]

The owner said, “Pastor, that’s too small for what you intend. We have another one somewhere close by. Check it out and let me know if you would want […]

Olive would rarely surrender money to you. The first shock I had was that she handed it over to me in the car and the next moment she […]
