Some people wrote to me asking why I shared yesterday’s story
They are of the opinion that is still raw and should have been left to cool before it is shared
I disagreed
The gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is not in theory, he said we should remove the log of wood in our eyes
before pointing out the spec of dust in the eyes of our fellows
The story was a practical joke sample of that teaching
As we all read such experiences, we get to look at our own lives and we discover that we are all flawed in one way or the other
All those who commented, or liked
Or even read without a comment must look inwards and deal with their own short comings as I also deal with mine
The way I preach the gospel is experiential, not theoretical, I know the impact the human condition has upon the soul and I know the cure for that misery
It is the
gospel
Not religion!
Religion is conditioned to make hypocrites out of everyone, there is no religion without its own rot
Jesus said religious folks in his own time were like whitewashed tombstones
The same is true today
Unless we all come into the knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Christ through the Holy Spirit, we will just be calling His name and claiming allegiance to him while our lives and realities would be the opposite of the reality he desires for us to walk in
We will think ourselves better than those going through a certain trial because we are
more prayerful and more righteous
We will blame God for every fault and praise ourselves for every victory
The Lord Jesus made the truth of His grace clear and evident to all of us
We are living in the reality of his power and love
He can redirect the course of your life and
bring beauty out of the ashes
If there is a battle you’re fighting, internally and externally
No matter how crazy it is and you desire a change, please send me a DM
We don’t even have to see or meet
I don’t have a church to invite you to and I am not looking to put my hand in
your pocket
We will talk about it
We will pray about it, we will seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit in aligning the course of your life and making you independent of circumstances
No matter what the trouble may be
It is always wiser to take it to God than to battle on ourselves
There are secrets that must be slaughtered on the altar of the gospel for your peace of mind, there are decisions that ought to be made to set your legacy right
Christ is our wisdom and there is no counsellor like the Holy Spirit
Please reach out 08072744871 (WhatsApp)
There is
nothing like the peace that surpasses understanding that the Holy Spirit gives us when we yield to him.
By the way, the lady and her husband in yesterday’s story are on their way to Lagos. We are all friends and this will be resolved without a fault line!
That is the power of
the gospel.

Good morning!

A " senior staff member" was accused of immoral conduct by another staff member, the person who laid the accusation was not a flippant person, her character and conduct has always been flawless within the company
She could have done what other "smart ladies" would do, which would
be to lead the man on, record his conversations, lure him to a hotel and embarrass him to cause a scandal
She didn't do this
She told her husband what was going on
She explained that the words of this man and said the way he conducts himself towards her on their phone
conversations and in real life was too sexually suggestive, familiar, and uncomfortable
Her husband asked her to discuss with the Human Resources manager of her company and she did
The man in question is of questionable character, he lies a lot, and his testimony within the

I got a call this afternoon from a friend of mine who is a doctor
She went to work today and heard as a matter of gossip
That a pastor and his wife of seven years are getting a divorce
This friend knows that this pastor is my friend and she called me immediately
She was very
concerned that a friend of mine is getting a divorce and I didn't do anything to stop it
She said I ought to have raised a prayer altar and invite all the trolls and gnomes on Twitter and other social media so that we can uphold this family in prayer so that the family will not
break up
A lot of people disguise gossip under the banner of concern, in this lady's case her phone was on speaker
She and other people in that office had talked about the issue so much that what they needed from me was more information to stoke the fire of gossip that is aglow

The university i eventually graduated from had this thing about fellowship services
Students were forced to attend all services
Unless a student is sick in which case he or she will be taken to the clinic with immediate effect, if such are caught avoiding fellowship the verdict
is suspension
A repeat offender would get expelled
It was that bad
Student Fellowship leaders at the time didn't have to travail or tarry before the Lord to get members
However, your content must be top-notch to engage unwilling students who were forced to come and sit under your
ministration
I remember speaking to hundreds and sometimes thousands of people as a fellowship leader
I remember the feeling of "thriving" in ministry that overcame many of us
It was convenient to boast that our fellowship was so so number and the feedback was such and such

The worst heartbreak ever is the one you feel after you have gotten married to the wrong person.
The “right” person suddenly surfaces, with the right energy, right connection, true love and understanding
You ask yourself, what is going on here?
You say “Oh Lawd, keep me far from
temptation but then you realise it is not temptation
Whenever this person is around you, everything becomes brighter but in their absence, you’re not motivated to do anything, to become anything, to aspire or even dream
He or she gets your creative juices flowing, just by being
around such you’re making more money, coming up with absolutely inventive and outrageous ideas and concepts
There is good vibes all over you and you’re more of yourself
At first you just like the person’s company the. You guys get talking and you realise he or she is your soul

Sleep eluded her for days
She spoke with her children daily and discovered that sending them to him was the best decision she had made in a long time
He placed them in private schools and the community they were living in was far better than hers
Her apartment gets so cold during
the winter that she would sometimes leave for many days to stay with some friends she made at the church they were attending
There was also the issue of drugs and other violent crimes New York is renowned for
She was happy before she went to Washinton, bit everything suddenly
became tepid when she returned to New York
She knew there was a better life somewhere and all she had to do was walk into it
If only it was that easy
Her husband had always been easy going, easy to talk to, easy to move towards any direction she wanted but at that time she was

Telling someone you have been in love with that the relationship is over is a big deal
It sometimes eats you up from the inside, especially if the person is a good person who loves you with all of his or her heart
How do you even say it?
What words do you use?
What excuse?
It is
easier to wish it away
To hope that the person will find love with someone else and be the one to break up with you or perhaps to relocate for studies, work, or whatever
It is even worse if you have met somebody else and you find yourself "double-dating" unintentionally because
while you have moved on, he or she still sees you as the center of their world
You look for mistakes, you get angry with such easily, ignore their phone calls, deliberately refuse to reply their messages, become curt, impolite, and sometimes rude
You hurt while you're doing this
