8 Years In Christ


It's another April 4 and today marks 8 years since I gave my life to Jesus. I still remember my first few weeks in OAU. Several students were coming to preach to the new students and I was visited by a lot of them.

A brother from Great Commission Movement, a brother from Deeper Life, another brother came all by himself and a sister from Jehovah Witness. They all made me see that there is a life different from the church life I was living.

April 4 came and I submitted to Jesus. That was 8 years ago. I am very grateful to God for keeping me. It's been a long journey, but at each junction, God found me and held my hand. I prefer celebrating today as my true birth day rather than natural birth day.

Last year, I made a promise to God that I will always preach to someone every April 4. I preach on other days too, but I take April 4 very special. This afternoon, I walked my street looking for someone to preach to. The Lord honored my faith by bringing one more soul into the kingdom. She is in SS2. I'm looking forward to seeing her grow in Grace.

I appreciate everyone that has been used by God for me in the past 8 years. Thank you for your labour of love. And to everyone out there still contemplating about Jesus, accept Him today!

Prophetic Perspective: Israel vs Iran

The middle east situation between Israel and Palestine is a very complex one that can be viewed from many sides. Whichever perspective you choose, there will always be an unresolved issue. It is exactly a year that Hamas, a terrorist group in Palestine, dealt the biggest blow ever to the Israeli state, killing over 1000 Jews and abducting about 251. It sent a shock wave round the world. The October 7, 2023 attacks kick-started a war that has escalated to involve Lebanon, Syria, Qatar and Iran. Israel has gone all out attacking Palestine in a wave that many world leaders have been cautioning them to consider the civilians. ORIGIN OF THE WAR The origin of the war in the middle east can be traced back to the 1920s when Britain, in conjunction with the Arabs defeated the Ottoman military in Jerusalem and took the city as a colony of the British royalty.  It wasn't long before the British decided to release the land to the Arabs that fought alongside them. But, there was another set of ...

Nigeria In The Bible

As we approach another celebration of the independence of the nation Nigeria, I will like us to know some things about this nation that the LORD has shown me. If a man wants to know the details of God's will for his life, he would need to read the things that have been written or said about him by God. Prophecy is one of the ways that the will of God can be known. Prophecy is voicing God's will. This same principle applies to territories as territories also have a will established by God for them to fulfill. In the scriptures, we see details of many nations that existed in that time. Nations like Israel, Egypt, Syria, Edom, Philistine, Babylon and in the new testament, we saw countries like Italy and Spain which still exists till today. Most of the nations that were mentioned in the old testament bear a new name today. There were some nations mentioned in the old testament, but their names were not specified. God, through the prophets spoke about the destiny of some na...

EndSARS: Prophetic Intelligence

  Some moments ago, the LORD reminded me of the things He shared with me during the protests. As usual, when I hear of an event in Nigeria or on the global scene, I would go to God for prophetic intelligence. I have always shared how that prophetic (spiritual) intelligence is the highest form of reality. When we seek God's counsel about an issue in our life, family or work, we are seeking prophetic intelligence. If we seek it for different issues in our life, how much more would it be of greater premium when we seek it for happenings in our nation. The ENdSARS protests started without any prior notice. There was no signal to it in the physical and it gathered momentum within days so much that many were surprised that Nigerians could stand up for their right. As the protests were going on, I went to God to find out His thoughts about the protests. In following God in the last days, many have missed the trail because they arrange things based on the knowledge of good and evil. We...
