BURDENED YET BLESSING OTHERS 

Some years ago, I was seated by my daughter, who was admitted to the hospital. It has been days of physical, financial, and spiritual demands. At the same time, I was doing my best to help a dear one in another city find help through a naughty case that was almost becoming a criminal. It was not one of the […]

JUST BEFORE YOU BECOME A BALAAM…

I was on my way to a meeting when some of the things we needed at home at the season began to flash through my mind. I quickly shoved it aside because I reasoned already that once I get the honorarium where I was heading, the needs would be solved.  As simple as it seems, I knew it was a […]

DO NOT KILL YOUR ABEL: DRAW CLOSE IN HUMILITY AND LEARN

One of the greatest blessings I have had in the past year is a dear brother and sister who are also amazing ministers of the gospel. Our mental shift started when we decided to attend one of their major meetings. When we got there and saw the organization’s operations, we knew we had to learn the wisdom behind the operations. […]

BELOVED, IT IS STILL POSSIBLE!

Just as we were wrapping up the communion service, I sensed a prompt in my heart that it was still possible to use our new facility for the 10th anniversary and convention of the Church. I asked the church, “Do we believe it is possible?” The answer was not too strong, and I understood.  But that evening, I requested that […]

IT IS NOT NORMAL: DO NOT TAKE RESISTANCE AS CIRCUMSTANCE

I pastor young people in a very unique setting. Let me explain- the average young person in the town is either a student, a corp member, an indigene looking for greener pastures or a worker seeking to be transferred to the city. Some folks would leave their families in cities while they work in our community. They often travel to […]

PATTERNS CAN PROTECT YOU 

While working at night, I walked into the girls’ room and did not find Danielle on the bed. I was not bothered because I knew she would sometimes leave her room to come to ours. We have had to address that a couple of times.  I was going to our room with the passionate corrective heart of a father. I […]

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 […]

SEND PRAYERS AHEAD

I struggled a bit with the prompt that Irewamiri was the woman to marry. By pastoral privilege, she had told me she did not love the “work of ministry” in the strict sense of it. I also learned that she was not yet filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. I mean, she did not […]

THERE IS MORE YOU CAN BE IF YOU GROW

I took a walk to the generator house in the church as I prayed in gratitude under my breath. I told God how grateful we were for all He had done for us in His favour.  Then like a burst of light, I remembered that we had gadgets that we could not use because of the weight of power required. […]
