I have always been a TRUMP supporter
I didn't choose to support him because of his party
I supported him because of his person
I like people who mean what they say and say what they mean
Political correctness is hypocrisy
Saying the "right "thing when I don't mean it is evil! I have equally respected the Democratic Party of America
I love Bill Clinton and Obama
I bought all their published books and read them with joy
I don't believe a political party can get it right all the time
And I believe not all candidates for a political office will appeal to

When you notice that someone has a soft spot for you, the ideal thing to do is to keep it as a form of social currency, so that on the day you really need him or her to come through for you, the person will not think twice.
Some of us think soft spots don't run dry, so we begin to milk it
We put all our problems on it and make a nuisance of ourselves
By the time the soft spot runs dry, we would have lost all our social credit with the person and turn ourselves into persona non-Granta
Managing relationships is a skill that has saved many from ruin from

People who face death everyday tend to think in a certain manner
The way they dimension reality is different from the way people who are into less risky lifestyles dimension reality
A soldier and a teacher are from two different planets, the way they see life and relate with life Are very different
The way they see love and relationships can never be the same
The way they arrange their world, separating what is real from what is not real is not the same.
Not all soldiers are combatants, every combatant deal with their own ghosts of war in their own way

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

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

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

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

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

enjoying
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

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

She said: I never much fancied the idea of getting married and settling down to having children and running a home
It just wasn’t my scene
I grew up seeing many women broken by marriage
I grew up believing many women in the grace would have lived longer if they stayed single and faced their careers
This didn’t make me hate men or marriage
I just felt it was not for me
When I was in school, I had friends with different worldviews
Those who got married early who had loving husbands and beautiful homes
Those who fleeced off men just for the fun of it
Those

He said: She was a friend, a true friend
Maybe the only person I can call a friend out of all my colleagues
We work in the same organization
I am like her boss but not her direct boss
She was heading one of the branches of the organization at the time and I was supervising six branches
So she is under my region but a boss in her own right
We had worked in the same organization for four years and we usually met at the annual conference and annual general meeting of the organization
At the meetings I observed that she is a very competent leader who took

When i was quite young, i remember my father had a saying ehich he said very often
"KI AWON OMO MI TO JE OGUN, MA JE OGBON" meaning
"BEFORE MY CHILDREN WILL CHOP 20, I WILL CHOP 30"
The true meaning was that he was going to eat majority of his wealth in his tummy before leaving any inheritance for his own children
It was said as a matter of fact, and all his children took his words to mean all he had to offer us was our education but nothing by way of a legacy or an inheritance
This philosophy was so anti-scriptures and anti-christian but every man will

I met a young lady and her grandmother at the event we had in Maryland last Sunday
I last saw the young lady and her entire family in the year 2020 when they dragged her down to one of my meetings at Surulere and labeled her a witch
And they were right!
She enjoyed being a witch always lost in a trance in broad daylight
She would sit somewhere fiddling with the belt of her gown or the edges of a wrapper (marking time in a hypnotic state) for hours
Anyone who dares to touch her or bring her out of that hypnotic state would fall sick almost to the point

If you have never started a church or a fellowship in your life, you can never understand what it means to lead one.
If you have never started a company from the scratch but joined the company to earn your monthly pay, you can never claim you understand what it takes to run a coy The church that Jesus named Peter as its head in his lifetime was not run by Peter after resurrection
James the brother of Jesus became the Bishop of the church in Jerusalem
Peter, the Cephas, the chosen one became an itinerant Bishop visiting churches planted by others in Europe

It is puzzling to see those who really end up losing their heads in the tussle for rulership in the Bible really didn't have anything to do with the throne or the line of succession
They just put their mouths where it didn't belong and it ends up costing them their lives and liberty
Remember that Amalekite guy that came to David bearing a crown he found on the battlefield after Saul had committed suicide?
Instead of delivering the crown and shutting his mouth, he lied that he killed King Saul thinking David will reward him for eliminating the King!

She: Men do not truly appreciate what women go through during pregnancy
The body becomes big and bloated, her hormones go into overdrive, she sacrifices her beauty to bear his children
No woman should have to go through that sacrifice for any man just bear him children Him: I agree. Why don't we shelve the baby thing completely
I am fine without children
All i want is to be with you
She: Nooo, i want children. It has always been my dream to have two children and you cannot talk me out of it
Him: I felt we should keep your body intact so that

That some people will attribute the wonders of the Holy Spirit to the work of darkness is normal
Jesus told us to expect it
He said they called the spirit at work in Him Beelzebub
If you have not been so labeled, your gospel is only in words
It is not yet in Power
Remember this! Someone I was once close to while having a discussion with a family friend said “How can you explain someone that was a nobody in 2018 becoming a globally known minister of the gospel or the miracles or the move of the spirit?
His mother took him somewhere to do something for him

The Bible did not promote the concept of financial seed sowing
The main seed is Jesus
Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
“And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice Genesis 22:18
The other seed the Bible talked about over and over again is the Word of God (Luke 8)
It is true that some things can be inferred rather than written in black and white when it comes to the Kingdom

The prophetic and human manipulation are usually close relatives
People like to make others do their will and will often assume the person they are talking to will not do what they want unless persuaded to do so by a higher authority
They may even believe what they want the person to do is what is best for him or her and in the name of "Good intention" they will encourage the person to do what they believe is best by hiding under "God said", "The Holy Spirit says", "I had a dream" or "I got a message"
This is one of the reasons many churches disdain

Met an old friend in Ibadan recently
one of those guys who ends up being friends with everybody in the neighbourhood despite the fact nobody really wanted to be their friend in the first place.
Like a worm or a cockroach, the more you try to keep such out the more you find he has wormed his way into your closet
He was neither hated nor loved but nobody missed him when he was not around
It has been over 30 years since we had lived in the same neighborhood
When I got to Ibadan, I reached out to him
He picked up my call and jumped on a motorcycle to my hotel

We met by divine ordination
I picked up my children in school that fateful day and Harmony, my daughter insisted we go to the supermarket to buy toy
She does that once in a while and being that she is four years old I find it a bit difficult to say No to her without plenty explanation
The simplest solution would be to give her whatever she wanted
The most difficult is to say no and then start explaining why
That afternoon, I didn’t feel like being asked a million questions so I just drove to the supermarket
We got there and off we went to the toy
