19.01.2022 "A man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. When we gather together in the moonlit village ground it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound. We come together because it is good for kinsmen to do so". ~ Chinua Achebe https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/iri-ji-festival-2019-ticket

04.01.2022 Pray today for the wives of Pastors. Many wives of Pastors are agonising in secret but they are forced to put on a smile in the public. To protect the image of... their Pastor husbands. Many Preachers who pretend to be angelic in public ends up being demonic in bedroom. Many wives of Pastors are sex starved yet they pretend to be happy. These ladies married Pastors for the love of God thinking that they will have peace of mind but the reverse is the case, even the congregation makes the matter worse by placing a very high expectations on the Pastor’s wife. This frustrates the wives internally. Many Pastors don’t understand what love making is in their bedroom. Pastor if you don’t satisfy yourself (wife) in the bedroom, you will be tempted to do it outside your bedroom because manhood is not born again. Though you have self control but realise that you are not a super hero. Good sex with your wife is powerful and does not stop your prayers even if you are fasting. Don’t give room to Satan. Husband and wife your body needs love making!!! Satisfy each other then your prayers will receive speedy answers. Many women are suffering in silence especially Pastors wives. Let’s pray for them. Being a good Pastor and a good Pastor’s wife requires a lot of sacrifice but family should be our first ministry. God bless you.
