I was in Lagos, Nigeria over the weekend for a session of spiritual mentoring.. A couple of believers (around 20) were gathered together overnight on Friday to share together and pray.

I was tired when I got to Lagos because of the recent change in the schedule of the airline I took (Aerocontractors). As I got to the venue of the meeting, I just went straight to rest because from experience, I know that God works more through a rested body. Gone are the days when I use this body the way I like. Now I am wiser and know that the message that my spirit will deliver will pass through my body, so the body needs to be kept intact.

By around 2am, it was my turn to take over. The Lord took us till 5am.

I spoke on the topic of Spiritual Gifts (I will put the message down for you to read when I am chanced.)

When it was time to pray, God was so gracious to us. We had someone baptized in the Holy Spirit. Someone also testified of the healing of an ailment that she came with. Someone said he saw a ring placed in his hand and I told him that that was a signet of spiritual authority. A sister said she saw a hand beckoning her to cross over, that she had stayed too long on the same level. There were testimonies left, right and center. God’s presence was so awesome that we didn’t feel like leaving the place.

These same people will now go and impact their world for Jesus. I believe that this is what mentoring is all about – helping others to get to where they are going. They will not be ‘me’ – just who they were created to be. I try within my limited time to relate with people on personal effectiveness, skills development, technology, and of course spirituality. My desire is to see a people filled with God and their purpose. My passion is to see our nation become that place where Spirit-filled, faithful, qualified and people of integrity will be at corridors of power and making the right decisions.

I have never stopped getting thrilled when the Lord moves in glorious power. I just kept praising Him, ‘who alone does wondrous things.’

I will be in Lagos quarterly for this and will start these same sessions in Abuja soon (probably in March).
