God O’Clock
What says the time? The time says God O’clock. I always enjoyed it when my parents or my older siblings request that I check what the time was. I would usually run-up to the living room and take a cursory gaze at our old-fashioned wooden clock. Initially, for me, it was a matter of just indicating…

Bring into Subjection
Apostle Paul in his first epistle to the Corinthians touched on an important subject I would love that we give a thorough examination. It’s not unusual for this great man of God to be very realistic in his writings. Paul is one man that I admire a lot. First, he is pragmatic. He’s a lawyer…

NP – Needless Pain
Psalm 50:15 reads “Call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me”. While the story I want to narrate is not particularly that of a day of trouble, it sure was a turbulent few minutes for me. I haven’t felt antsier in a long time – I was…

Oceans (Part 2)
You asked for it and here it is – I bring you the concluding part of this piece. In the first part, I was analyzing the bridge to that popular song titled “Oceans“. We talked already about walking upon the waters. “Wherever you would call me” has a strong link with the fact that God’s…

In Him We Live
Acts 17:28 – “For in Him we live, and move, and have our being” What a perfect innuendo!! This verse touches down to the core of the true knowledge of God. I believe if we can reflect well on this passage, the eyes of our understanding will receive a gross illumination. Have you ever considered…

Similar Faith?
Lately, in my place of worship, we have been in study of all the great wonders and miracles being wrought by the apostles of the early church. Infact, I have been personally intrigued by each of their acts. I have had to ask if our generation is missing something. It seems the understanding and faith…

SOM (Seen of Men)
In the heat of preparation for an examination, I got an inspiration to write on this subject matter. I believe it was akwardly insane to even dare do other things besides preparing for the exam. But honestly, the good thing about life is taking a step at a time. This is a welcome distraction. I…

Don’t Blame Them
I had the opportunity to have a discourse with a few teenagers in my church over the weekend. What I can conclude is: if you don’t teach them, don’t blame them. You may think they know, they really don’t even know”. These young folks believe that much access to information is same as knowledge or…

Intermitent Loss
A song writer wrote in the second verse of this popular song “Sweet Sweet Spirit”. There are blessings you cannot receive till you know Him in His fullness and believe; You’re the one to profit when you say, “I am going to walk with Jesus all the way.” Indeed, there are blessings that elude us…

Dear Aunty Tope Alabi
Dear Aunty Tope Alabi, Your songs are my morning doze. The way your songs have influenced my life, not a single ink can fully express it. I understand better now that there’s no language in terms of speaking, writing, listening that can beat one’s mother tongue. I abhorred Yoruba because I was doing badly in…
