THREE AREAS TO BUILD FAITH IF YOU ARE CALLED (PART 2)

I returned to my office that afternoon and met a note with a phone number attached. It was from one of my teenage mates in our local assembly. I reached out, and he paid another visit.  He said, “I was praying on my birthday. God told me you were in Eruwa and I should come and see you”. While I […]

THIS IS NOT A DEAD END!

When they fired the guns and halted our moves, we knew we were stuck with them, and all we could do was pray. They began to ask occupants of the bus to get down and lie face down. Just in a moment, we saw a vehicle with police escorts attacking our attackers. That was how we escaped. We did not […]

DEFLATE THE PRESSURE BEFORE IT BUILDS 

When a young pastor who lives by faith and a young lady who just finished serving the nation decides to get married, they must understand certain things. The first thing Irewamiri and I told ourselves was that we would save aggressively as we looked toward marriage.  The second was a simple principle: Whenever we are out of money, we would […]

THE BLESSING OF A FATHER IS A DOOR OPENER

As I was about to leave the office of my grandfather in the faith, he said to me, “Son, has anyone blessed you in foreign currencies before?” I replied in the negative. He then opened up his bag, enveloped some foreign currencies and handed it over to me backed up with these words, “From today, I command foreign currencies to […]

NO EVIL WILL COME NEAR YOU 

Recently, Dad reminded me of something very unique and reassuring: He used to drive a Nissan Primera. He would normally park the car under a cashew tree in front of the house.  One evening, it was quite stormy. It did not occur to any of us that he should move the car. When we woke up, we saw what amazed […]

IF YOUR FAITH IS UNDER ATTACK

On the 4th of January, 1990, my mum was certified dead on a surgical table just before the procedure started (I have shared this story before but I desire someone’s faith to be strengthened today. Mum has also written a personal memoir about that day but I want to share a bit from lessons on faith that I picked from […]

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Irewamiri stepped out. Danielle stepped out also. Olive began to look around and wanted to cry. She did not know I was right behind her. I picked up her toy, got her attention and said to her, “You are not alone. I am here with you”. She beamed a smile and continued playing. I believe the Lord is asking me […]

BE PATIENT. JUST OBEY. YOU WILL SOON UNDERSTAND

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 […]

WHEN YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW IT WILL HAPPEN

Some years ago, we were preparing for our annual convention. We had a budget of a hundred and eighty thousand naira (180,000) but we had just about ten percent of that amount. The week before the convention, the pressure of “How will it be?” began to rise. I did not say a word to anyone in the ministry. We simply […]

FAITH IS FOR THE BLIND

On our way to Abeokuta on the 19th of April, 2012 for my cousin’s wedding, my mum made a profound statement that has stuck to me as a life lesson on faith and obedience. Dad drew her attention as we drove past an optical clinic that she used to frequently visit during the first few years of her eyesight challenges. […]
