  I can’t remember I can’t remember praying for him or my journey. I can’t remember praying for an excellent service but I remember making a request. My spirit must have said a quick prayer to the Holy Ghost reminding him of my lack of desire to suffer this year. There were cries and pledges and requests made to my Heavenly Father in January 2022. I wiped my tears fast. The days in January became short as soon as I stopped wallowing in my situation like Hannah. Then My Father in Heaven hastened my days in February. As usual, He’d seen me enter a pit, I dug for myself the previous month and held me close as I struggled with letting Him work while I rested. I was nearly disgraced but He didn’t allow it. Instead, He let my light shine. He surprised me and my listeners with the words of my mouth and the work of my hands. He gave me glorious days in March. I recounted many levels I’d skipped And just when I got drunk on the levels and His ability to hold me when I fall, I got a caution....

  The not so huge secret is out! I have been sharing some business tips on this blog but I am more passionate about Customer Service and I am very vocal about this not because of my years of experience working as a Customer Service Executive but because Nigerian vendors like to test our patience and I have experienced too much of it to ignore. I have also been hosting talks on a Whatsapp group for a while now where I share some tips and my Customer Service experience, answer questions business owners have and how to resolve customer complaints satisfactorily. I am excited to share publicly that I will be hosting another Customer Service Talk on March 6, 2022 by 8pm. Attendance is free and virtual(Google Meet) but you have to register. See link below: https://forms.gle/Jp9cTX6fTLNUzpnf6 See you there!

Feedbacks like the above aren't good for business growth as they discourage other "intending" Customers. You should not keep Customers waiting whether you own a kiosk or a conglomerate.  We have terrible and incompetent policymakers in Nigeria whose policies crumble businesses, but business owners should play their part and ensure they keep their businesses afloat by keeping loyal Customers satisfied.  When you satisfy your clients, they would not leave. They will bring more clients to you saving you the cost budgeted for Advertisement and Promotion. One of the parts you need to play well is to hire willing and loyal staff. I didn't believe tales of few good or employable people until I started helping employers to hire people. The labour market is not encouraging, yes, but you should keep searching. You can use job sites well, give them your requirements and pay the applicable fee needed to get what you want. You can also headhunt after proper due diligence. If you d...

Being a Woman in 2020 is:  Being called a person who menstruates. Being called a tree because; no child Being called a man because you’re decisive and self motivated Becoming a bread winner because hubby lost his job Being a humble Bread Winner to avoid being called a witch who cost her husband his livelihood   Saying NO to rape Saying NO to molestations Saying No to Female Genital mutilations Saying   No to unwanted affections Saying NO to harassments of all kinds Saying NO to domestic abuse.   Having to explain CONSENT Having no desire for sex at 18 Having to explain your passion for work and why you need to make a living Having a husband who prefers to live single while being married to you Having to explain your singleness in your 30s Having to explain being 40 and having no children   Choosing to live alone and being badgered for it Choosing comfort over savings Choosing to trek home rather than accept free rides ...

Canaanland, Easter 2019 God answers prayers. It has been a while since I wrote that I was struggling with my finances.  A lot has happened. The Waymaker surprised and has been surprising me. March ending 2020, it seemed like God was ignoring me. So, I did what humans do which was to assume that there was no other way but to pack my bags and baggage and leave the situation. The "situation" wasn't just no rent to live in Lagos but every avenue to borrow/get money from to settle my urgent bills was blocked.  I told my unrelenting landlady that I was leaving my accommodation so that she would give me breathing room. I also gave away some of my stuff. Preparing my mind for the "next step" which I thought was leaving Lagos for my home town. My family thought I was crazy to give up.  I went to my Cell Minister who told me "Jane, this is not the way forward. I understand the situ ation but let's wait to hear from God." So I wait...

Hi! I have a huge confession to make. I have been struggling with my finances. You might say that is normal but I do not see bad things or terrible situations like poverty as normal. His Word says that He will supply ALL my needs according to His riches in Glory so when my needs aren't met, I get troubled. The past couple of months have been weird. I made a couple of questionable decisions. Thankfully, I have been taught to stop looking for witches and wizards after my finances but search my self FIRST. So, I looked through myself and the decisions I have made and found many failings. #Shiloh2019 messages and ministrations have been helpful. I couldn't be on ground at Canaanland, Ota(due to work) but I connected Live via Youtube, Facebook and at my Zonal Centre, Marwa, Lekki during the Prophetic event last December 2019. The First night was impactful. Bishop David Oyedepo, as if he was speaking to me, asked us to check our righteousness and standi...

We were close to the pedestrian bridge when I saw them. 3 boys on the footbridge. It looked like they were in some kind of fight; 2 against one. Even more terrifying; no street light from the bus stop we came from to the next 3 bus stops. The last time I was robbed at the next bus stop at 6am flashed before my eyes. Picture from Google So, if you avoid them by running at this bus stop, how would you avoid them at the next bus stop, my conscience asked me. On we walked till we got close to the bridge and they noticed us. One of the boys started walking down. I eagerly pointed them out to my partner. “We need to go back” “Why?” he asked. “It is 3am and those boys on the bridge are coming down to meet us” “I don’t think so”. This fearless man answered. “Let me find a stick”. He started looking around him for a stick. I saw the second boy walk to the other end of the bridge and I turned back without waiting for my partner. “Wait now”. He called after me. “They c...

Dunsin Oyekan (Picture from his Facebook Page) Pastor Damilola, who was a Song Leader and a Music Director in my church, loves posting short clips of ministrations. While scrolling through Instagram a couple of months ago, I breezed past his post on  Dunsin Oyekan . I didn't check the post and so didn't understand his seeming obsession with this particular guy. I blessedly found out why, last Friday and how powerful  Dunsin Oyekan  's ministrations were at #NOW2019. During introductions, fellow worshipers would scream and call him BABA! Dunsin Oyekan  came on stage to a loud ovation. His ministration was powerful and indeed, life changing.  My favorite songs are Amazing God, Breathe, Open Up, If all I say is Jesus. These songs have refused to leave my head, heart and mind for days now. He also ministered with Pastor William Mcdowell. View this post on Instagram ...
