One thing me I sha know is that the same thing the rest of you see as normal coincidence is major kairos for some of us.
Stumbled into my Dad’s office back in 2012 at a time I normally shouldn’t be there, checking my OAU Pre Degree admission offer when a man walked in….
After a busy schedule at Ilorin, I was too tired to pray and prepare for service. My wife woke me up 5am, I prayed for a bit and I slept off again.
Only to be woken up by gentle knocks on my window. I peep and see this. Lol

One thing about growing up in Deeper Life is this, you get to grow up with an undiluted understanding of the truth as it regards God and the Bible, so much that when you sit under the ministration of any Pastor out there, you can easily flag if he's preaching the truh or lies.

I didn't want to say anything but I need to say this, everyone is human, and certain perspectives from certain people is a human perspective and not God's perspective.
"Submit yourselves one to another" is God's own perspective
Equality is God's own perspective.

Startup is not a get-rich-quick scheme, most founders are earning barely enough to stay alive.
Salary is for living, equity is for upside.
Think about this before you quit your job to start a company just because you think it's a faster route to getting rich.
