A ray of hope shines in your spirit right now! This is NOT the end! God is making ways for you! Amen!! ❤️❤️
Happy Birthday to my Father, Apostle Emmanuel Iren.
“What is stressing you? Talk to me. You know what? We’ll be placing your child on a scholarship.”
Those words Apostle spoke to me in September during service in August, altered something deep within me. Not long after, on the 11th of September, I received a mail that Michelle had been approved as a beneficiary of the CCI Scholarship, spanning five years. I felt like I was going to faint but I didn’t 🤣🥹
As of December 2022, I had lost everything.
The job.
The house that came with it.
My finances.
All I had was Michelle and even everything I earned went straight to her. I truly had nothing.
A friend told me to return to God and introduced me to the T30 app. That was where I first encountered Apostle’s messages. In my 25 years of living, I had never heard salvation preached with such clarity, depth, and conviction.
At the time, I was attending another church I had decided to be serious with, and I prayed earnestly: “God, do You want me to stay here, or go to CCI?”
Three or four days later, I had a dream. A flash passed before my face, and immediately I saw Pastey standing under Ikeja Bridge. He waited for a bit, then began to walk away. In the dream I said to myself, “What am I doing here? I’m meant to follow this person.” I ran after him and then I woke up.
I forgot the dream until around 9am that morning, when every scene came back clearly. This was January 2023.
I searched for the nearest CCI and decided to attend. My first Sunday, Apostle wasn’t around because he wasn’t the resident pastor at that time. The next Sunday, I couldn’t go because I didn’t even have transport fare from Opic (after Kara) to Adeniyi Jones. The following Sunday, I had transport but suddenly I felt like the church wasn’t my “type.”
But the voice I heard in my head that morning? 😭
I jumped out of bed and ran to church.
That day, Apostle came. And what shocked me the most was how accessible he was. It was a culture shock. I grew up in a church where you couldn’t go near the pastor or their children you’d be told you were bringing witchcraft or trying to tap power. But here was a father, open and reachable.
I summoned courage and asked for a picture. He agreed 😭
From then on, I took my walk with God very seriously. Apostle has appeared in my dreams countless times praying over me, preaching, pouring oil on my head 🥹
My life changed because a man said yes to God’s will.
I’m grateful to God for the gift of spiritual covering. He truly compensated me with a father like Apostle. And even more, he replicated himself because the pastors are like him, and the CCI members who became my anchor when I was drowning? They’re just like our DADDY 🤭
God bless you, sir.
More grace, more strength, more fire.
Happy birthday, Apostle Emmanuel Iren.
Thank you for your labour of love over us all.
Happy PIEday 🤭

Today, I asked for the hairdresser assigned to me to be changed because they were being too rough with my scalp and hair.
Next stop, nail tech 😫. IYKYK.
God abeg.
I wanted to know: Is there a genocide against Christians in Northern Nigeria?
Beyond hashtags and politics, what is happening to the people?
I went to Plateau, the heart of the Middle Belt crisis. I sat with survivors, visited graves, and listened to voices no one hears.
Isn’t that what we do nowadays?
Grappling to have a say in the personal lives of people we have zero contact with.
Speaking with absolute certainty when we have little to no context.
Actually, it's the gospel of Jesus Christ that is taking over the whole world. Day by day, people are realizing the beauty of the good news: salvation by grace, eternal life in Jesus Christ alone.
It's the Unstoppable Move of God.

I used to wonder why they talk so much about it until I experienced it myself and now I can't stop talking about Reboot camp, Apostle and CCI
