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 […]

ARE YOU A GREAT STEWARD OF RESOURCES?

We had a few days to go; yet there was still a lot to be done on the project site. The next phase needed quite some funds. We had to purchase things for electrical and plumbing accessories.  We all prayed and gave thanks before we left the site that night. By the time we returned in the morning, we had […]

HOW NOT TO KILL YOURSELF

I followed my pastor to a church for a Stewards’ Vigil at another church some years ago. My Pastor preached like fire. Till now some of the statements he made still ring out loud in my head: “God is not in the business of maintenance. He keeps making things better. If you cannot make it better. Quit”. He was challenging […]

3 THINGS THAT MAKE MEN BOW

The only money I had in the office that day was the church offering. It was the first few weeks after church started. I needed to help a friend make a call and I had no airtime. It was hard not to “borrow” from the money. It was also hard not to rationalize and take a little for airtime. My […]

“I AM SORRY, THAT DAY CAN’T WORK”

We all sat at the table and I told Irewamiri that I would still need to step out that Sunday evening. She looked at me and said, “I don’t know about that dear. Sunday evenings are for us as a family”.  I called the person I had an appointment with and requested that we talk on the phone briefly. Many […]

THE BLESSING OF ALL

After our trainers gave us the instruction that we should look for land, we commenced a search. While searching, we went to ask for a piece of land that we saw. 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 […]

“DON’T BRING THAT SICKNESS IN HERE”

As kids, anytime we got sick in school and our parents were beckoned on. As soon as we get home, Mum would say to the sick- “Temi, you know sickness is not permitted in this house. So, before you come inside, rebuke that sickness”. You need to see me saying, “In Jesus’ name, I am not sick”. She would definitely […]

THE FINAL QUESTION

A pastor narrated a unique experience once: A young man who used to work in their ministry office got an appointment with a financial institution. The financial institution sent a reference form to the ministry office that they had to fill and attest to. After answering all questions, the final question was, “If you get a chance to employ him […]

HANDLING EMOTIONS ON THE JOURNEY TO DESTINY FULFILMENT

My Grandfather in the faith shared a powerful lesson with us once: A dear friend of his visited him regularly in his city. Anytime he comes, they would jointly visit a senior minister of the gospel. After a while, they both noticed that when they visit this minister, they always return discouraged. They never discussed it. One day, as they […]

“I WON’T LIE TO YOU” 

We were about to drive out for just some minutes when Olive ran to her mum saying, “I want to go with you”. She was not appropriately dressed. Her mum told her to go dress up. She ran inside with such speed to pick a dress and a pair of shoes.  While she dressed up, she heard the sound of […]
