The Lord told me to shut down a Christian community I was leading, when the community just stated blooming and gaining publicity. He told me to shut it down and focus on my serving local church, I cried and prayed but once I obeyed, I had peace.
God told me last year to start a move for young girls and teenagers generally, I was scared because I'm still a student. I remember crying so much that day and I was sure God spoke because he has been saying it for a while. I got up and started praying and making preparations. We had the program and God did great things from the start to the finish. It's still called Bring Back Our Girls To Christ Campaign. The name itself that God gave me,there were so many questions people asked but God did his thing still
After escaping the Ukraine-Russia War, I was in another part of Europe. And I heard the Lord clearly tell me not to stay for greener pastures in Europe but to rather come back and follow his will for my life. I did that painfully, but now it is crystal clear that this is where I ought to be at this season of my life. Everything took a new turn, career and ministry. It pays to follow the leadings of God.
God told me to move to a new city, a city I don't have any family member, He also instructed me by many confirmations not to move out of the country. My father didn't give me a dime while moving, he didn't just buy the idea, my mum had to support me herself. The good thing now is, 3years after, He was moved to the same city I am now because of work, we are now in the same city. Also just days ago, God used him to confirm that I should not move out of the country. And I can say that I have been gliding in grace and God's purpose for me. It only gets better from here.
God asked me to stay in a certain local assembly. I had been there for a while but hurts came and people were leaving and I asked God if it was necessary to endure this much pain and that I could hear His word somewhere else. God didn't permit me to leave but to stay and continue serving Him and Him alone because He lead me to the local assembly for Himself and His own purpose. I stayed, it was tough, but God did comfort me through the process, l am glad I obeyed
I have been in a particular phase of my life for quite a while. A period I will call my ‘waiting period’. Each time I pray, He would ask me to stay. At the beginning it was hard. I struggled 😭. I was angry and I eventually became depressed. The good news is that He brought me out of that place of depression. When I look back now, I understand better. He has built me and used me to build those around me( my sisters, brother and friends). I have peace now. I am stronger now and I trust Him more. But I think the biggest part of all of these for me is the level of impact I have been able to make in the lives of my family and friends. He has called me into something greater and I am ready to follow even if it means doing so afraid. Thank you so much Pastey for this. I am encouraged🙏🏾
The Lord led me to start an initiative to reach more people for the gospel. I myself was my own hindrance. I said to myself I didn’t have enough money so I will do it next year. Then my friend just came to randomly and said so you are not going to do what God said. I was overcome with fear and with no dime we started, it is called Criss-Cross today
I have only seen my father cry twice. The day his mother was buried and the day I left home to become a full-time Pastor. I looked like a prodigal son to my parents. It didn't take long for them to see that I was right after taking that bold step
Joining my local church, CCI. I had received clarity that that was where I ought to be. But being an undergraduate and under the supervision of my parents, it was a lot. So many back and forths and family meetings. Then, I took some time to pray and fast on it. Fast forward, my mum now follows Pastey, has even attended Deeper, and has received a major miracle through the ministry. I'm gladly walking in purpose and am fruitful. Glory to God!
All my life I have been told that I would do the work of God, I’ve gone for prayers with family and organize same with friends and they keep telling me how God is going to use me mightily to heal the sick and raise the dead. I’ve gone to places where they just gave me the Bible and said do the work, I’ve had dreams where I saw a woman in wheelchair and God said in that dream that I should pray for the person to be healed, I was reluctant until he said he would bring someone else to do it, and then I rushed out to do it in that dream and the woman stood up and walked. I recently had a very terrifying dream where my now pastor asked me to preach, I preached in that dream and people were healed at the word I spoke, the message was powerful and everything was glorious. I feel I’m not good enough, I feel sometimes like I haven’t given my life to Christ, I find myself really lazy in reading my Bible and staying consistent in it and consistent in prayers. But I know that if I pray for you, you must be healed, what can I do? I’m getting lost and I need to God to pull me back.
The Bible says, it is God that works in us to WILL and DO of His good pleasure. Trust that if He has called you, He will back you up. Then you also need to do the work, discipline yourself to pray and study. Remember also, Rome wasn't built in a day don't expect to immediately pray 5hrs everyday, you can start with 30mins to 1hr, just make sure you are consistent. The Lord help you and give you peace.
In 2019, I had to resign from my job in Lagos and relocate back to Akure where God had told me several years He wanted me to be. It was such a difficult decision to leave my life and every juicy opportunity in Lagos for a place like Akure, but again, just trusting and obeying God, is all that matters
God told me to go ahead with the Fisheries course I was given after I didn't meet the cut off mark for Medicine... The fact that people already thought that I was studying medicine (For context: I came in through Unilag Diploma) and that my mum successfully ran a fish farm for a number of years without having to learn about it in school for 5 years made it really difficult but I was glad I obeyed.. Now, God is calling me to even deeper waters and this story really encouraged me. Thank you so much Pastey
This is a blessing to me it my first time in this channel I have been really being ignoring the call of God in my life for years now I don’t have peace . I want to give Him my all now I need help
Am in it right now, in the middle of a church with a vision the Lord gave me, I always knew am supposed to move forward with it and the time is now. Oh God . Thank you for your messages
Thank you sir. Unlike the examples I grew up seeing, God's instruction to me was not to move but rather to stay put. It was hard because I felt I had outgrown that stage of my life. I obeyed grudgingly but I am already seeing the wisdom in God's instructions and I'm grateful that I obeyed regardless of the state of my heart and emotions.
Having to go through an unfamiliar route hasn’t been easy but it’s been worth it. Over and over again, God continuously emphasizes five words to me and these words are “I am always with you”. I’m in the best place I can be and this location is called the “will of God”. Thank you Jesus❤
I always knew from University that my career path would be different, but it was really tough and challenging. I remember telling a friend I wanted to be a writer, and he said I wasn't successful enough to have anything meaningful to share. I even gave in at many points, got conventional jobs, and lost everything I made every time, including my peace and health. I've realised that God will have me make time to learn a lot so I can teach others in the future.
The Lord told me to be a stay home mom after marriage. It wasn't easy. A lot of things happened. My parents didn't understand why i ll shelf my Msc Architecture from CU... They had invested in my education. But The Lord has blessed our family greatly. Thank you for this video.
The part of God speaking through same dream several times is so profound. I never knew this. But it happened to me this year on such a sensitize matter. For three days in a row i dreamt the same dream. On the third morning i literally woke up crying and filled with the emotions from the dream, ran to my fiancee's place and pleaded profusely that we needed to pray. But deep down i knew God had spoken because i had been having nudges and it wasnt an issue of praying against but a difficult decision we had to make. For months i cried and rebuked it, begging God to change his mind. Its the most heartbreaking decision i have ever had to make.
Thank you so much apostle Iren That’s a phase I am in now. In this where I missed it was that I didn’t really carry my wife along as I assumed she wasn’t listening but was just ok with where we were. I’ve made the decision and it wasn’t all smooth and rosy but I’m more at peace and thanks to my pastor who released me even when I was almost rebellious because the vision burned in my heart and I couldn’t stay again Thank you for this inspiring video sir
Thank you for sharing sir. This message greatly blessed me. God told me to separate from someone and i have been struggling with it, but when i listened to this message, i just smiled and asked Him for wisdom and grace to go about the separation.
Hmmmm. Thank you so much sir. I remember praying about the choice for my undergraduate degree and each time I prayed in a dream God said Mechanical Engineering against my personal desire for Computer Engineering and my Dad too also felt it was a hard course option and would always ask me to have a rethink each time I told him about this leading, the third time I went back to pray again I saw myself in a dream as a graduate of Mechanical Engineering, currently in my final year now and I have no regrets taking on this path and I am particularly grateful to God for the privilege of service to Him and impact in the lives of others all through my years on Campus. This video has also strengthened me to follow God's leading in other areas of life
I was already past 2 interview stages for a job in a leading bank and God told me to stop and He walked me through the process of starting a business of mine
This is powerful Sir. I can also relate. I remembered when God asked me to take up an assignment in a Church in Mowe, Ogun state that was barely 3months in establishment. It was a very difficult decision to make because I had to relocate from Lagos and I had no means to sustain myself but today the story is different. God has never left me for once since I obeyed. Thank you Apostle for sharing with us. I love you Sir.
The Lord has been telling me consistently to go and preach in some villages but my job and some little needs as held me back The voice has been consistent even before I got the job in Ilorin I need help Lord 🙏
Kai this is powerful. the lord directed me to go to crossrivers for my service year, I went to cu and my parents got a job for me in Lagos I had to tell them no even when I got to camp they relocated me and I canceled it . I just finished my device year in cross rivers, the things that I encountered with God and the life's that were saved because he used me Kai I thank Gid I followed his instruction
Thank you sir for this. One major decision I had to make was handing over my ministry to someone else in order to serve in NCCF. I already planned my redeployment but God Insisted that I stayed back. Today, my ministry is better because of that decision. God took me to the east to bless men that I may never meet again till eternity. It’s been 2 years My ministry has moved from one phase to another and it has gotten better. I can relate to this. You’re doing a great job sir and I’m inspired by you. I love you sir
Yes pastor, i had these experience three years ago i was led to leave the house i used to stay, He asked me to move despite my persistency in trying to stay back. I finally moved. Late last year the same time i was shown a lot of things about someone i should be walking with and serving under but the trauma from the wrong decisions i made in a bid to help the vision😂 has been difficult to let go. Now am dealing with accepting even Gods will for marriage but am growing into it by the grace of God. I remember always telling him the man is too good for me. And after showing what we are to work together and i was still reluctant and He told me He would replace me and in ny dreams i watch how all that was given to me by God were being taken. Thank God for His mercy they were returned. One of the reasons i didn't want to watch the video is because of the caption i saw, because it reminds me of my experience.😂 But am okay now😊 He keeps leading. This video helped a lot , still learning as a babe in christ😊
I can complete relate to taking time out to pray to God so as to hear HIm. Planning to pray for x number of days and hearing Him quicker than you anticipated. This puts more emphasis on the truth that God is more willing to speak to you than you are eager to hear from Him.
This blessed me. I remember preparing for NYSC and being diagnose with having slight asthma and I was sent to Katsina. During the period, it was cold and I had just started showing signs of inability to withstand cold. So my parents suggested that I redeploy back to Lagos where I reside. I prayed to God about it and He told me that if I do , the sickness would be permanent in my life. Ha, receiving this I declined redeployment and served in Katsina successful and didn't have any crisis. Recently I had a leading to join a particular ministry but after talking to my parents about it, they refused because they also run a ministry😢. I have been unable to go just that I follow all of the services online but I would really love to be a full time member in order to grow in areas of my life where I am lagging. Watching this broke me😢. God will help me.
Mine was leaving my father - boy! Was it hard! 😭😭😭 Today I'm grateful that I did. Looking back I will leave a thousand times over knowing this is where it leads.
Staying back in Ilorin after my BSC program was not an easy decision to make and to share with my family; my mom mostly. She had expectations and hopes. So much was depending on my decision. I had known since 300level and while it took me a bit of time to come to terms with it, I had already began to see confirmations and was settling into the idea. She visited me last month and even though she doesn't fully understand it, she's not against my staying here anymore. Thank you so much Pasteyyy. Grateful for the gift that you are.
Yes man of God This blessed my life, to hear again do what the Lord has given me to do don’t look for everyone to understand and don’t look for it to look like everyone else, continue to look to Jesus the author and finisher of my faith. God is mighty who promised and He won’t fail. Praise God.❤
He isn't a Rabbi. Please don't use the term for him. You should look up who a Rabbi is and then see it doesn't suit his ministry. We should use words appropriately.
Ooh Pasteur this is absolutely profound and blessed me in no small way🎉 Thank you Sir sometimes you may need to go against the statue quo and crowd to do the will of God
Thank you Pastey... every point is powerful...❤🔥 particularly your exposition on how the Gospel has shaped and is shaping our societies... Thank you Pastey..
The message has really blessed me. For me, its a matter of moving from a certain religious church to another spirit filled church, so that I can grow spiritually and do Gods work effectively. The place i am moving out from is a place where i been have for years, and my family also fellowship from there, however, I was led to move out. A very tough decision to make
Last year I want to enter the tech world, I started but there was this discontentment so I prayed and the Lord spoke to me clear from heaven that I should abandon my plans and focus on the gospel. After then it was like heaven was open and supernatural encounters started funny thing I pray for my purpose for about 3 years before then. I’m so very grateful I obeyed God
This was deeply insightful. God bless and strengthen you Pastey God has told me that I will revolutionize Christian businesses, and help them thrive. It was a bit funny because while I have solid experience as a market researcher, and most recently as a Brand Strategist. The vision looked (still looks) really big, how do I start? where do I start from? But I remind myself it's one step after the other, and I'm privileged to have 'informally' acted as a business advisory for several Christian brands throuhg last year till now. Planning to take more courses to broaden my knowledge bank, and also be loud about what I do (nothing thrives in silence). Will go back to the vision board. I'm so inspired, God bless you Sir.
Thank you, Apostle for this. I have to remind myself that even in the midst of making some life changing decisions, God can count on me and use me for His glory.
Taking a gap year in my career for a year. I stayed in my city on instruction despite having an appointment to start housemanship as a doctor. It was difficult watching my mates go ahead while I stayed home. But rn, I see what the Lord is doing.
Thank you Apostle Pastey for this 😊 Difficult decision I'd to make, hmmm. My parents wanted me to japa & earn a living & gradually move my sibling's over too. But at this point I already knew that God wanted me to preach the gospel in Nigeria, in Africa & to the ends of the end. So i knew obeying my parents wishes was going against God's agenda. After a few years when they became more serious about it, I prayed & God's vision for my life was stronger in my heart than any other thing. A day came i had a discussion with my parents & I told them, I'm not japa-ing, & I want to preach God's word & yes, it was hard on them but like Hannah gave Samuel sacrificially, so they did let me go and preach & never brought the issue of Japa to me again & have been praying for my ministry. Glory to GOD
The difficult decision I had to make was definitely when God told me to close my business and start something that was faith-based. I cried when I got the confirmation and clarity about it at Deeper, Lagos. It didn’t make sense cause I was doing so well. But God knows better than me. So, I trust Him.
Mine sounds confusing but I found peace. First is my strange election into the fivefold after running for years and after 3 years of running ministry work and I am now settling, He said it's time to move to what I called you for and that is scary, I consulted with my wife and few men of God, I delayed but only to say yes to God on this second move as it is unpopular "The AfriOne Mandate Of Rest", but after watching this video, you've reaffirmed a lot. Thank you, Dr. Emmanuel. I celebrate you, sir.
Mine was staying away from getting or applying, or thinking about a job for an entire year. It looked like I was crazy at the time but I’ll forever thank God that He took me down that path.
I've Experienced Such Decision Making In My Vision, Some People Will Surely Come In Each Phase To Discourage Someone. What Must Be Known Is That "Vision Is Individualistic" And Everyone Will Answer To God For It In Heaven. More Grace Sir. I'm Blessed 🔥🔥🔥
The Lord told me to shut down a Christian community I was leading, when the community just stated blooming and gaining publicity. He told me to shut it down and focus on my serving local church, I cried and prayed but once I obeyed, I had peace.
wow! that just taught me so much! thank you for sharing. may God reward your obedience 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I can relate to this.
I relate strongly brother strongly
Can absolutely relate to this 😢
Reinhard Bonke 🔥🔥🔥My father and role model...❤❤
Reinhard Bonnke was my favorite evangelist ever to listen to. I remember watching and praying for Africa back in the 80s
God told me last year to start a move for young girls and teenagers generally, I was scared because I'm still a student. I remember crying so much that day and I was sure God spoke because he has been saying it for a while. I got up and started praying and making preparations.

Really wow I can connect deeply to this testimony only that I m t my own cross road now, asking God for his divine wisdom
God told me to move to a new city, a city I don't have any family member, He also instructed me by many confirmations not to move out of the country.
My father didn't give me a dime while moving, he didn't just buy the idea, my mum had to support me herself.

The good news is that He brought me out of that place of depression. When I look back now, I understand better. He has built me and used me to build those around me( my sisters, brother and friends). I have peace now. I am stronger now and I trust Him more.
But I think the biggest part of all of these for me is the level of impact I have been able to make in the lives of my family and friends.
He has called me into something greater and I am ready to follow even if it means doing so afraid.
Thank you so much Pastey for this.
I am encouraged🙏🏾
The Lord led me to start an initiative to reach more people for the gospel. I myself was my own hindrance. I said to myself I didn’t have enough money so I will do it next year. Then my friend just came to randomly and said so you are not going to do what God said. I was overcome with fear and with no dime we started, it is called Criss-Cross today

You need to understand that God's plan for you is perfect and he will fulfil it through you. He is a good father
The Bible says, it is God that works in us to WILL and DO of His good pleasure. Trust that if He has called you, He will back you up. Then you also need to do the work, discipline yourself to pray and study. Remember also, Rome wasn't built in a day don't expect to immediately pray 5hrs everyday, you can start with 30mins to 1hr, just make sure you are consistent. The Lord help you and give you peace.

wow... one major takeaway for me in this is to hear God myself... Hear God for myself...
I just finished watching this video and I'm going to preach to my Muslim friend right away.
This is a blessing to me it my first time in this channel
I have been really being ignoring the call of God in my life for years now I don’t have peace .
I want to give Him my all now I need help
Am in it right now, in the middle of a church with a vision the Lord gave me, I always knew am supposed to move forward with it and the time is now. Oh God . Thank you for your messages
By divine leading, I turned down an opportunity to Japa that was fully funded😅
Thank you sir.
Unlike the examples I grew up seeing, God's instruction to me was not to move but rather to stay put. It was hard because I felt I had outgrown that stage of my life.

How can i thank God enough for stumbling on Pastor Irens' teaching. Everyday im blessed and looking out for more.
Thank you so much apostle Iren
That’s a phase I am in now. In this where I missed it was that I didn’t really carry my wife along as I assumed she wasn’t listening but was just ok with where we were.
I’ve made the decision and it wasn’t all smooth and rosy but I’m more at peace and thanks to my pastor who released me even when I was almost rebellious because the vision burned in my heart and I couldn’t stay again
Thank you for this inspiring video sir
Thank you for sharing sir. This message greatly blessed me.
God told me to separate from someone and i have been struggling with it, but when i listened to this message, i just smiled and asked Him for wisdom and grace to go about the separation.
Hmmmm.
Thank you so much sir.

This video has also strengthened me to follow God's leading in other areas of life

I was already past 2 interview stages for a job in a leading bank and God told me to stop and He walked me through the process of starting a business of mine
This is powerful Sir. I can also relate.

Thank you pst Iren.
The Lord has been telling me consistently to go and preach in some villages but my job and some little needs as held me back
The voice has been consistent even before I got the job in Ilorin
I need help Lord 🙏
Kai this is powerful. the lord directed me to go to crossrivers for my service year, I went to cu and my parents got a job for me in Lagos I had to tell them no even when I got to camp they relocated me and I canceled it .
I just finished my device year in cross rivers, the things that I encountered with God and the life's that were saved because he used me Kai I thank Gid I followed his instruction
God has been giving me an instruction for months that I have refused to carry out because of idolizing men’s opinion. Lord help me.
Thank you sir for this. One major decision I had to make was handing over my ministry to someone else in order to serve in NCCF. I already planned my redeployment but God Insisted that I stayed back.
Today, my ministry is better because of that decision. God took me to the east to bless men that I may never meet again till eternity.
It’s been 2 years
My ministry has moved from one phase to another and it has gotten better.
I can relate to this.
You’re doing a great job sir and I’m inspired by you.
I love you sir
Thid blessed me!!
Yes pastor, i had these experience three years ago i was led to leave the house i used to stay, He asked me to move despite my persistency in trying to stay back. I finally moved.
Late last year the same time i was shown a lot of things about someone i should be walking with and serving under but the trauma from the wrong decisions i made in a bid to help the vision😂 has been difficult to let go.
Now am dealing with accepting even Gods will for marriage but am growing into it by the grace of God.
I remember always telling him the man is too good for me.
And after showing what we are to work together and i was still reluctant and He told me He would replace me and in ny dreams i watch how all that was given to me by God were being taken.
Thank God for His mercy they were returned.
One of the reasons i didn't want to watch the video is because of the caption i saw, because it reminds me of my experience.😂
But am okay now😊
He keeps leading.
This video helped a lot , still learning as a babe in christ😊
Thank you Pastey
I can complete relate to taking time out to pray to God so as to hear HIm. Planning to pray for x number of days and hearing Him quicker than you anticipated. This puts more emphasis on the truth that God is more willing to speak to you than you are eager to hear from Him.
Thank you so much sir 🔥
I woke from a dream with the scripture Joel 2:25 this night and then I came across this video on someone's status...
This blessed me. I remember preparing for NYSC and being diagnose with having slight asthma and I was sent to Katsina. During the period, it was cold and I had just started showing signs of inability to withstand cold. So my parents suggested that I redeploy back to Lagos where I reside. I prayed to God about it and He told me that if I do , the sickness would be permanent in my life. Ha, receiving this I declined redeployment and served in Katsina successful and didn't have any crisis.
Recently I had a leading to join a particular ministry but after talking to my parents about it, they refused because they also run a ministry😢.
I have been unable to go just that I follow all of the services online but I would really love to be a full time member in order to grow in areas of my life where I am lagging.
Watching this broke me😢. God will help me.
You should pray to God to touch the hearts of your parents. He did it to mine
@@gonehbarileep7763 I have tried and still trying. But it's wearing me out😥
Mine was leaving my father - boy! Was it hard! 😭😭😭 Today I'm grateful that I did. Looking back I will leave a thousand times over knowing this is where it leads.
Blessed. Thanks sir
Thank you Sir❤
I will make up my mind to do the Lord's will 🎉🎉🎉

Staying back in Ilorin after my BSC program was not an easy decision to make and to share with my family; my mom mostly. She had expectations and hopes. So much was depending on my decision.
I had known since 300level and while it took me a bit of time to come to terms with it, I had already began to see confirmations and was settling into the idea.
She visited me last month and even though she doesn't fully understand it, she's not against my staying here anymore.
Thank you so much Pasteyyy. Grateful for the gift that you are.
wow that’s great… you attend cci ilorin?
Yes man of God This blessed my life, to hear again do what the Lord has given me to do don’t look for everyone to understand and don’t look for it to look like everyone else, continue to look to Jesus the author and finisher of my faith. God is mighty who promised and He won’t fail. Praise God.❤
Thank you so much Rabbi. This is just what I needed. I'm so blessed to have you sir. This generation is blessed!
He isn't a Rabbi.
Please don't use the term for him.
You should look up who a Rabbi is and then see it doesn't suit his ministry.
We should use words appropriately.
@@sose9601 lol... Lol..
God! I will stay in your plan for my life. 😭😭😭
Ooh Pasteur this is absolutely profound and blessed me in no small way🎉 Thank you Sir sometimes you may need to go against the statue quo and crowd to do the will of God
This message is so timely for me.
Thank you for sharing.
I thank God for guiding me into it.
This has been a really heartfelt series. Thank you Pastey
Thank you Pastey... every point is powerful...❤🔥 particularly your exposition on how the Gospel has shaped and is shaping our societies... Thank you Pastey..
This is too short😢😢😢, please make it longer. Thank you Apostle, God bless you ❤❤❤
The message has really blessed me. For me, its a matter of moving from a certain religious church to another spirit filled church, so that I can grow spiritually and do Gods work effectively. The place i am moving out from is a place where i been have for years, and my family also fellowship from there, however, I was led to move out. A very tough decision to make
Last year I want to enter the tech world, I started but there was this discontentment so I prayed and the Lord spoke to me clear from heaven that I should abandon my plans and focus on the gospel. After then it was like heaven was open and supernatural encounters started funny thing I pray for my purpose for about 3 years before then. I’m so very grateful I obeyed God
Pastor Iren, God bless you countless times for giving us this program
This was deeply insightful. God bless and strengthen you Pastey
God has told me that I will revolutionize Christian businesses, and help them thrive. It was a bit funny because while I have solid experience as a market researcher, and most recently as a Brand Strategist. The vision looked (still looks) really big, how do I start? where do I start from?
But I remind myself it's one step after the other, and I'm privileged to have 'informally' acted as a business advisory for several Christian brands throuhg last year till now. Planning to take more courses to broaden my knowledge bank, and also be loud about what I do (nothing thrives in silence).
Will go back to the vision board. I'm so inspired, God bless you Sir.
I needed to watch this❤
This is so powerful 🥺
Just what I needed to hear
Thank you so much sir
Wow!❤🙏🏾
Thank you, Apostle for this. I have to remind myself that even in the midst of making some life changing decisions, God can count on me and use me for His glory.
So blessed!
Thank you so much Pastey! This is Timely✨🙌🏾
Taking a gap year in my career for a year. I stayed in my city on instruction despite having an appointment to start housemanship as a doctor. It was difficult watching my mates go ahead while I stayed home. But rn, I see what the Lord is doing.
Thank you so much Pastey. I needed this so much.
Thank you so much for this Pastey❤
Thank you soo much for sharing this. It spoke to me on so many levels. I really appreciate
Thank you so much for this Sir. This is timely!
Thank you Apostle Pastey for this 😊
Difficult decision I'd to make, hmmm. My parents wanted me to japa & earn a living & gradually move my sibling's over too. But at this point I already knew that God wanted me to preach the gospel in Nigeria, in Africa & to the ends of the end. So i knew obeying my parents wishes was going against God's agenda. After a few years when they became more serious about it, I prayed & God's vision for my life was stronger in my heart than any other thing. A day came i had a discussion with my parents & I told them, I'm not japa-ing, & I want to preach God's word & yes, it was hard on them but like Hannah gave Samuel sacrificially, so they did let me go and preach & never brought the issue of Japa to me again & have been praying for my ministry. Glory to GOD
The difficult decision I had to make was definitely when God told me to close my business and start something that was faith-based. I cried when I got the confirmation and clarity about it at Deeper, Lagos. It didn’t make sense cause I was doing so well. But God knows better than me. So, I trust Him.
God bless you sir for this
Please can you share a word of prayer for those who need strength to do what the Lord needs than to do?
Mine sounds confusing but I found peace. First is my strange election into the fivefold after running for years and after 3 years of running ministry work and I am now settling, He said it's time to move to what I called you for and that is scary, I consulted with my wife and few men of God, I delayed but only to say yes to God on this second move as it is unpopular "The AfriOne Mandate Of Rest", but after watching this video, you've reaffirmed a lot. Thank you, Dr. Emmanuel. I celebrate you, sir.
Mine was staying away from getting or applying, or thinking about a job for an entire year.
It looked like I was crazy at the time but I’ll forever thank God that He took me down that path.
This is really profound. Thank you
Stories that can set you ablaze 🔥
Thank you pastey
Thank you, Pastey.
Thank you for this video, Sir.
God bless you sir
Thank you so much, Pastey.
Thank you so much Apostle.
Thank you Apostle for this. Thank you Sir.
Thank you so much for this Apostle Iren ❤
Wow....i was blessed, am not alone on this journey!
I've Experienced Such Decision Making In My Vision, Some People Will Surely Come In Each Phase To Discourage Someone. What Must Be Known Is That "Vision Is Individualistic" And Everyone Will Answer To God For It In Heaven.
More Grace Sir. I'm Blessed 🔥🔥🔥
