BUILDING RESILIENT MARRIAGES (II)

We invited a special guest to a conference once. I was prompted to ask the wife to also share for about ten minutes. It was something else hearing from her. They had been married for years without the fruit of the womb. Medical reports said the husband had no sperm count.  To make matters worse, business investments went on a […]

THE KEY TO A TRUSTWORTHY AND UNITED MARRIAGE

A young lady who had some level of access to us once approached my wife and said, “I want to tell you something, ma.” Irewamiri asked what the matter was. Instead of mentioning the issue, she asked my wife, “Has Pastor not told you? Maybe I should wait for him to tell you”. Irewamiri was wondering what the matter was […]

IT IS BETTER TO STAY SINGLE IF YOU ARE UNWILLING TO DO THIS…

We had to step into a marital situation that was degenerating. When we got to ask questions, we realized it was a phone issue. It was shocking how a simple issue can fester to become so gangrenous. The husband insisted his wife could not and must not touch his phone. He said he does not touch her phone, so she […]

HOW TO RECOVER LOST YEARS

I was standing with an elderly person one day, and I learnt a priceless lesson from the words he said and what he left unsaid. He mentioned how he seemed to have lost grounds with his peers and how hard it was to connect with another generation. He said, “I just feel alone.” Those four words hit really deeply that […]

DO NOT USE THE SPIRIT TO DRIVE YOUR OWN AGENDA

Some years ago, after we finished a major event, we had one or two people who wanted to see us. A young man came in and told us that he was really blessed by the meeting. According to him, he was about to head to his own church that morning when the spirit took him and brought him to ours. […]

ISSUES ARE DIFFERENT FROM PEOPLE – LOVE PEOPLE, SOLVE ISSUES.

A childhood friend and I fought back in our secondary school days. It got a bit tough. He had the physical might and I had the mouth. I used my mouth. I abused him that he got home and told his mum what I said. His mum visited my parents that night and said, “Even if Temi and my son […]

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO CHECK IT?

I saw a post referring to a situation that involved indecent exposure and nudity. Instantly, I became inquisitive to know what the matter was and who was involved. As I proceeded to the search option to begin my investigative journey, the Holy Spirit stepped in and asked, “Why do you have to check it?” I realized I was just being […]
