As the doctor treated the bullet wound on my back, he said to me “You will feel a small bite on your back soon. Endure the pain. We will be close to finishing the stitching”. I felt the small bite but let out a deep groan. It was painful but I knew it will soon be over. One of the […]
I kept telling Danielle not to scatter the pack. Well! She did a clinical finishing of dismantling the pack and all the contents. Just when she was done, I asked her to begin to arrange all that she scattered. She looked at me soberly. She did not know what to do. Friends, it takes more effort to build than it […]
An “evangelist” was telling me passionately about how his mentor had helped a lot of prostitutes. He claimed his mentor would drive to a red-light district to pick up one or two prostitutes. He would “romance” them in the car. Afterwards, he drives them home where his wife is waiting for them to preach the gospel to them. I was […]
We had checked on the house about three weeks earlier and I told my wife that we were not going to rent that particular place and I had my reason. She did not argue with me. As I drove into our former residence, the Holy Spirit impressed in my heart that the house I rejected was actually the house to […]
As we left the meeting, a dear protégé of mine said to me, “Sir, it takes pastoral grace to do what you did and still minister the truth to those young ones”. I was to teach a large crowd of teenagers, but they were distracted and noisy. I said to him, “Sir, when I saw how distracted and noisy they […]
My parents were classmates in the tertiary institution. During an examination, my father took ill right in the hall. He had his work tools as a Fine Arts student but in his words, “I just kept looking at the paper before me. I had gone blank. The stress had taken its toll”. He was almost collapsing when some of his […]
While I was a student in one of the State Universities, I was not that rooted in the faith but the discipline of godly parenting helped me a whole lot. I was studying one evening when one of the ladies who frequented our residence pulled away my notes from me and said, “Spencer, if you don’t visit me, you will […]
I was speaking with two ladies when the Lord dropped a Word in my heart for one of them. I did not know who in particular when I got the word. It was simple: God said, “No matter how much you have invested in the wrong relationship, turn back now”. One of them confided later that she knew she was […]
In 2011 (right after my service year), the Lord told me that “Every company builds its factory where the raw materials are. Go to where I have sent you”. I agreed with the call but I had just one more thing to tick off my to-do list- travel out for three weeks. I was in the documentation phase. I had […]
I was visiting an elderly one some years ago. I was still in the early days of full-time ministry. She was really concerned about my survival. She began to ask questions like, “How will you get paid especially in a place like Eruwa?” As I was still wondering the best way to answer, she said “Well, by the time you […]
