WHEN GENUINE CARE BECOMES A PROBLEM

There was a night Danielle went to bed pretty early and she woke up hungry the next day. She was so hungry that she wanted to have anything in sight. She took some water first. Then as a caring Dad, I wanted her to be strong on time, so I gave her a drink. She rushed it. A few minutes […]

“I WAS DOING MY ASSIGNMENT”

I knew when my girls came in from school. They would come into my office and greet me before they went on to do any other thing that they needed to do. But I heard their voice when they arrived but did not see my girls come in to greet me.  About an hour later, Danielle walked to my office. […]

PARENTING DOES NOT HAVE TO BE HARD

We came back late from church that Sunday afternoon. Just before you could blink an eye and go through the Sunday afternoon routine of cooking, cleaning, and at least resting, Daddy was already at our door telling us it was time for the regular Sunday evening evangelism.  My brother would give none of it. I was too young to be […]

DO NOT FORCE PEOPLE INTO YOUR CONVICTION

I made a definitive decision on a vital ministry relationship. The day I mentioned it, she was greatly overjoyed. I had not seen that glow before. Later, she informed me that the Lord gave her a word about the situation and that relationship about three years earlier.  I asked her why she did not mention it. She said, “I did […]

THE BLESSING OF SOLID CHARACTER 

I had shared the testimony of what God did at a season in our ministerial journey with a dear brother who is a minister of the gospel. We had given out almost everything in our house. We moved to a new place and the living room was bare.  A year later, we got the gift of a truckload of furniture […]

THE BLESSING OF COMPLETE TRUST 

I was away on a writing retreat. Some bills needed to be paid for our building project. We were at the foundation-filling stage. The account needed just about seven thousand naira more to make up for the required payments. I told those in the office to wait till noon.  At about half past eleven in the morning, I picked up […]

THE BLESSING OF UNUSUAL WITNESSES

When I received the call of God into ministry, there were at least two people that I was scared of seeing. I was not sure how they would respond when I mentioned the call to them. He was a visionary and a great intellectual.  I knew how much help he rendered when I wrote my final project on Taxation. He […]

THE BLESSING OF SPIRIT-LED PARENTS

I did not have any fear of telling my parents that the Lord had called me into full-time ministry after years of investment in studying law. I remember my parents saying, “We thought you were coming to tell us that you had the plan to travel out of the country”. We had an evening drive where I shared about the […]

DO NOT MISS YOUR PLACE

I discussed the call of God to ministry in and from Eruwa with a beloved one when the vision was brewing. He was of the opinion that I get a job in the city (either Lagos or Ibadan). He counselled that I could visit Eruwa for monthly outreach. When the vision in Eruwa becomes big enough, I can then move […]

WHEN THE CALL BECKONS

As I sat in my Dad’s green Nissan Primera that evening under the cashew trees in church, the Lord began to speak to me about my future. I picked up my journal and wrote eight things that about my life and journey as inspired by the Lord. I kept that moment and the encounters jealously. This was April 28, 2007. […]
