YOU MUST LEAVE AN INHERITANCE FOR YOUR CHILDREN

“People who got no inheritance should make efforts to leave an inheritance” - Dele Olawanle

A few days ago, one of my friends, a pounds millionaire called me to say they just shared their mother’s estate
and that he got something. Though not much, it touched me and I loved that. That was scriptural. The righteous leave inheritance for their children.

Apart from the godly character and education that was given by my mother and father, I did not get
anything physical or monetary from my parents. Not a penny. It made life more difficult and hectic.

Please do not come here to make scientific comments. My message is solely about leaving something physical or financial for our children. I am not talking of
education or something they will labour to get for themselves through what we instilled in them. That is a different matter. Some experts have the habit of watering down the souls of a message through their comments.
As a parent, be intentional about leaving an inheritance for your children. As a lawyer, I see this first-hand as clients come to sign papers giving them the rights over their parents’ estate and inheriting thousands of pounds. It motivates me to work harder and leave
something behind. If that is your wish, it will happen. So, be intentional.

Many children became lifted by the wealth of their parents. Though some wasted it but believe me, many didn’t. They utilized it well and passed it on to their children.
Today, as a matter of reflection, has it ever crossed your mind to leave something for your children? The way you are living your life today, do you think you will be able to leave something for them? How do you expect your children to survive without you leaving
something behind? Do you realize leaving something for them will give them an advantage?

I read some news from some billionaires saying they will be giving their money away. Don’t be deceived, their children already got enough to make them rich in their
parents’ lifetime. Inheritance will be a bonus. They also have connections with people who matter.

In many parents’ cases, they left nothing and they left no meaningful connections for their children.

So, wake up. You must leave something for your children. It is
not easy but being intentional makes it a reality. Don’t forget to enjoy yourself on the way to leaving something behind. I wish you well.

Dele Olawanle is my name. I write and speak to make lives better.

ABOUT MASON GREENWOOD & other criminal matters

This article is to explain how the criminal justice system in the United Kingdom works for ordinary members of the public.

My wife is a Teacher/Tutor. She loves children with passion. She can be
fortified with her views on some things happening in society. sometimes.

So, when anything criminal happens or there is an allegation in the press or television, we will do our own mini-court hearing at home before the Crown Prosecution Service in the UK
makes up its mind on what they want to do.

It used to be hot arguments and my wife used to see me as being insensitive. I used to say the law does not work like that and that as a lawyer, I see things differently. Then our three children all read

THE DANGERS OF LIVING IN THE UK (PART 3)

I entered the UK in 1990 and I was skinny. I started working with Macdonalds and I tucked into bugger, sugar, salt, meat, ground rice and fizzy drinks. I became a big daddy after a few years. ImageImage
In 2006, they started inviting me to America to preach and I preached in many states. I started wearing baggy suits which you can see here. People were praising me for my look but I was gradually falling apart.
Compare my look in 2006 to 2023, 17 years after. I dumped fizzy drinks, sugar, salt, ground rice and red meat. I fell in love with water, fruits, vegetable fish, and regular exercise.

When you enter the UK or any western country, food is cheap, no

RE-INTRODUCE YOURSELF

In 1986, my brother-in-law who was a Colonel in the Nigerian Army introduced me to a company director in Kaduna for employment. The Director adopted me as a son after a few months due to my performance. I travelled to the UK from there in 1990.
In 1990, my mother attended a revival in Abuja hosted by the late Prophet Timothy Obadare. At the time, I was a frustrated young man in London. My mother spoke to the prophet about me, I related to the Prophet very well, he took me as a son and ordained me into ministry
12 years later. Everyone reading this who knew me and the Prophet knows I was one of his favourite sons. I was an incredible giver and a committed worker. The rest is history.

There are other important people I was introduced to over the years and I customized the relationship

YOU CAN AVOID FUTURE PAIN (Part 2)

This is a concluding part of the message I started early this week. The thrust of the message is to say that some pain can be avoided if we listen now.
A few years ago, I spoke to a man of God whom I was asked to speak to by someone who lost his children in a car accident. The telephone call was to thank the man of God for his support for the family during the tragedy.
The man of God then told me that the tragedy could have been avoided if the man had listened to him. He said the man had just bought a new car and brought it to him for prayers. He told the man not to take the car to his home town.

YOU CAN AVOID FUTURE PAIN (PART 1)

In this article, I will explain that some future pain can be avoided if you are obedient and humble. When you are advised not to do certain things, not to make a certain move or embark on a certain project, Image
it is not to control you but to help you to avoid future sorrow or pain. God will not do anything without showing it to his servant the prophet. The prophet could be your friend or driver.

I am where I am today because of obedience and humility.
I am ready to take instructions or advice from anyone. I thank God for the grace though I am not perfect.

Let me explain. I did not want to be a pastor. I hated the responsibilities and the challenges. I wanted to be an Evangelist, moving from town to town.

YOUR WIFE CAN MAKE YOU - DELE OLAWANLE

Today is my wife’s 51st birthday. I met her when she was 20, celebrated her 21st birthday together and got married when she was 21. By the 8th of June, we would have been married for 30 years. We have three children aged 27, 24 and 20.
So ladies, marry early if you can.

She was born in London to her Nigerian parents. Me, I was a thoroughbred Nigerian from a very poor family and raised by a single parent. Our background was different.
I remember in 1992 when she said we should go swimming at a swimming pool Centre. I laughed. My mother was living in a rented house and I wanted to build a house for her, no time to swim. Lol!

I was living in a single room that I could not afford to heat in the winter season.
