The community where the church we are building in the Philippines is very rural. Earlier today the truck bearing cement from the city to this village got stuck on the bad road
I got a call from Rosalyn about the situation, she was very frantic because the weather has changed and
she didn’t want the rain to destroy the building supplies.
I told her not to worry, help will come from the village where the church is being built.
I was quite confident that the elements of this world must bow to the realities of the children of obedience.
What we had embarked
upon as a goodwill project for the community is as a result of a divine instruction.
I have worked in ministry at one capacity or the other for several years, the Philippines would be the last place on the earth I’d site a project for the gospel if I was to go by the flesh!
The Holy Spirit told me to expect a call from abroad and I announced it to my team.
I was expecting some big shot to call and say “We have seen the good work you are doing and the Holy Spirit has asked that we support you with a lot of dollars” but what I got was a call for help
If indeed God instructed that we do the project, all of nature and science must must align!
A few minutes later, a group of people came out of nowhere and everybody got to work
They off loaded the cement, the sand, and other materials and carried them to the site of the project ImageImageImageImage
with joy.
Once this was done, she called again and said “Pastor (I don’t know how to stop her from calling me that) we don’t want it to rain so that work can go on at the site
I said “Okay, let us agree that there will be no rain for the next ten days!”
She said “ Pastor, we are ImageImageImage
on an island, rain falls here at least every two days
I said “Okay, but has it rained till you started the project seven days ago?”
She said no.
I told her I have asked the Lord to give them a fair weather on the Island until our 30 days window for construction is complete.
She ImageImageImageImage
said “Hmmmm”
We prayed and immediately the sky was clear and there was no rain
The work went on and Sanballat and Tobias couldn’t constitute an hindrance
The challenge they have now is the road
Rosalyn said they would have to use a boat to bring in the other materials as from ImageImageImageImage
tomorrow.
I told her we will get the project done speedily and there shall be no delay.
Again I am asking believers to support us with this project.
We are building this church for this community and we will hand it over to them 100%
We are not building in order to get them to
remit money to us or enslave them into a certain doctrine
They are believers located in a rural area in the Philippines who prayed and got a leading to approach us for help
There is a great gain (not money doubling scheme) in serving the Lord and being a blessing to others! ImageImage
Please send me a DM or a message on +2348072744871 WhatsApp if you are encouraged by the Holy Spirit to be a part of this project.
We have funded the project up to 50% and we are hoping to get them the rest of the fund within the next ten days so that the roofing and electrical ImageImage
work can be done.
I am very confident that the right hearts will be drawn to this and the name of the Lord shall be glorified.
God bless you

When you read a thread accusing someone of doing any wrong on social media, don't be in a haste to support, retweet, fight for or encourage the accuser.
Dont start tagging the employers of the accused and go all out for blood, sometimes via @YouTube
The accused is not guilty of the crime
You just may be nailing an innocent man or woman to a coffin
I am happy this doctor was cleared eventually
I stood by him when he was accused because I saw the evidence and it was obvious the girl was lying
I found myself in blogs and other
publications because I decided not to keep quiet for the mob asking for his head on a pike.
The accuser's Pastor knew she was lying, i spoke with him one-on-one, and he said he didn't want the girl writing threads about him on Twitter
He lacked the courage to do the right thing!

He wrote: When you guys started having children, you flew our mother to the UK for Omugwo
Between the two of you, mummy has stayed in the UK for over 16 years because as soon as she finished nursing the baby of A she would move to B's house to help her nurse her baby
We were five
but you ladies being the first two girls manipulated it in such a way that mummy couldn't come to help any of us here in Nigeria to nurse our babies or care for our spouses when we got married and started having children
When Ada got married in 2011, mummy came home briefly for
her wedding and then Justina gave birth and she had to return to the UK for babysitting and Omugwo duties.
In all this, Daddy protested and so did we but you gaslighted us and made us feel as if we were inconsiderate
When I got married to my own wife, in 2013, I wrote to you that

Those Who Will Win

Oftentimes, I will get a message from a believer who claims God has made him or her certain promises but those promises have gone unfulfilled
I will ask for specifics and they will eagerly share how they received a word of prophecy or saw a vision and how
several years later, the vision had gone unfulfilled while their lives had remained in limbo
I would tell them how i learned from the same person the difference between Faith and Hope
Faith does not understand how to wait, it is an action word, a doing word while hope must wait
Many believers exercise hope and call it faith
For faith, all it takes to accomplish what has been promised or prophesied has been given to the believer right from the moment he or she received the word
For hope, there are other factors at play which are beyond the control of

Had a pastor friend
He worked as a consultant for many multinational companies and made a lot of money
He bought a house in Magodo, built another one in his home town, got married to the daughter of a judge from Ibadan
Had four children
When his wife clocked 50, he bought her a
car
A Toyota Prado
His wife sold the car and gave the money to her younger brother who had been running an ailing business for over 20 years
This Pastor got angry and told his wife never to touch any of the other cars in the house
She should be jumping buses and riding Okada
The wife did this for a month
Church members saw her jumping buses and riding Okada
Many called the attention of the husband to it
Whispers started in the church
How can Pastor’s wife be jumping buses?
How can a pastor treat his wife with so much disdain?
What sort of example is

This was the weather in my first three days in Manchester this year!
I had never been in the snow before, so I liked it at first and was feeling like a Gee!
By day three when I realized that the snow’s handshake is extending beyond the elbow and I was suffering instead of

I said “Snow, it is enough! I want the sun to come out now. I cannot be wearing thermal wear and snow jacket and head warmer and gloves everywhere
I was not born for this weather so while I am here, you have to make allowance for me
There is no snow in heaven, neither
Is there rain or cold
I am from Zion
Jesus is the light and warmth of my city
Let the sun take its place in the sky and let heat take over the atmosphere.
I slept after declaring this
I remember the declaration because i recorded it in my WhatsApp VN as I said it

I learned quite early in life not to sit in judgment of others and the choices they were forced to make as a result of the issues life throws at them
I especially do not appreciate it when people sit in glass houses while throwing stones
I was involved in a case once, it involved
a Pastor who found himself facing a panel based on petitions written against him by a female member of the church
The petition was written to the national headquarters of the ministry I was working with then and it was from there that a National Church Growth officer was sent to
ou province to constitute a panel and preside over the case in order to resolve it
I didn't know the National church Growth officer very well but I know the Pastors who were chosen to be on the panel that was constituted
Truth be told, if they have any form of good conscience the
