TAYO ONALEYE

Don't quit !!!  .....copied ... after his ministry exploded on air waves, a storm arose & he was criticised heavily for his TV app earances. He became angry,discouraged & ready to sink into depression. Just before his "last breath", a lonely counsel came from a woman, who could hardly whisper her own name. She has been in the hospital for a while, bedridden, suffer ing from a rare medical condition that led to the loss of her unborn babies. She told him, bishop "its for us and not for them" the frail woman made him realised that she was saved from giving up the ghost because I listened to you on TV. Did TD Jakes quit? Yes he did! but this time around, he did QUIT from QUITTING. The adversary is attracted to your new status and like they say"new level new devil" the size of your enemy reveals the size of your reward. Where your enemies will take you to, your friends can't. Only Goliath could give David instant breakthrough. Today B...

CHRISTIANITY IS BEYOND REASON, IT'S BY FAITH Tayo Onaleye Below are 10 reasons why Christianity may not make sense to anyone who limits him/herself to sense/reasoning. 1. It doesn’t make  sense to believe in a God you have never seen because seeing is believing. 2. It doesn’t make sense to believe a virgin can get pregnant as Mary the mother of Jesus claimed. 3. It doesn’t make sense to believe anyone could live an entire lifetime without sin as the Bible claims Jesus did. 4. It doesn’t make sense to believe that 3million people crossed the Red sea on dry land through the parted sea as Moses claims he did when he led the Israeli rebels out of Egypt. It sounds like tales by moonlight! 5. It doesn’t make sense to believe a man could ride a chariot of fire into a so-called heaven as Elisha claims his master, Elijah, did. Elisha should be arrested for declaring his master missing and feeding the public with a cock-and-bull story of one chariot of fire. Who knows if he E...

Tayo Onaleye Nation Builder and Wealth Creation Agent BUSINESS IS A LOVE AFFAIR  Tayo Onaleye Love is the greatest force in the universe. God Himself is Love. The greatest interaction that can happen between any two people or parties is an exchange of love. Same with business. Business is simply a platform for delivering love to people. A platform through which people experience love.   LOVE YOUR CUSTOMERS Business is not primarily about making money. It's about improving lives.  It's about making the lives of other people better, easier, happier, less stressful, etc through your products and services. It's about taking away pains and delivering happiness.   Profit is the applause customers give you for taking good care of them. Permit me to rephrase the last statement. Profit is the applause customers give you for taking God-level care of them. Yes. God-level. God loves people and He wants them taken care of. Very good care o...

LIFE IS ABOUT FOLLOWING Tayo Onaleye Psalm 63.8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me. The Christian life is a journey with the Master. It's about following Him, His agenda and pattern. 1. FOLLOW JESUS Mat 4:19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. He is the author and finisher of our faith. He's the Bishop of your soul and the Great Shepherd.  He's the No.1 person to follow. We follow Jesus by following the leading of the Holy Spirit in us and the Word of God. The first calling of the disciple is not to preach but to follow. Mark 3.14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, 2. FOLLOW YOUR LEADER Don't hang around a leader you refuse to follow. Mat 10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. You can't help the the fellow who refuses to follow. Hebrews 13.17 Obey them that have t...

THE GREATEST MINISTRY GIFT Tayo Onaleye Num 8:19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation..... Dear leader...... If you send someone on an errand, you should naturally equip such a person with the resources needed to accomplish the mission. Same with God. He gives you the resources for the calling. The primary gift God gives you for the work of ministry are people with the heart of service That's No. 1 It's not money. And it's not people with money A poor man who is ready to serve is more useful to the work of ministry than a rich man who gives you some attitude......the poor man's two mites with a right heart carries more weight than the load of cash with a wrong heart.....wrong attitude. You now understand why Jesus said that the widow's two mites had more weight than the loads of cash. This is also...

DESTRUCTIVE CRITICISM IS A FORM OF SPIRITUAL ATTACK Tayo Onaleye Life is spiritual. Words are spiritual. Words are spirits. The spirit, soul and body of man responds to words.  Ezekiel 2.2  And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me. John 6.63  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Your words can strengthen another soul and make them to stand on their feet. Your words can also demoralize another soul and sink them into the deepest depths of despair. Words have provoked suicides. Words have the capacity to penetrate into the soul. .......piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow...... Negative words are spiritual arrows that penetrate deep into and wound the soul.  Psalm 64.3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows ...

MONEY CAN MAKE YOU TO FORGET GOD Psalm 62.10...... if riches increase, set not your heart upon them. Money is a powerful tool. It is a good slave but a bad master. God wants you to have money but He doesn't want money to have you. Money will have you and become your master if you set your heart on it. You will make good money because God's WORD at work in your life will produce results. However..... Psalm 62.10...... if riches increase, set not your heart upon them. Beware of setting your heart upon the riches. Beware of turning gold to god. Beware of putting gold before God. Money gives your comfort. But beware of becoming so comfortable that you begin to forget God. You stop reading the Bible. You stop going to fellowship. You stop going to church. Because you're now very comfortable and you don't need God that much again. Beware.......  Money can make you to forget God! Rev 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased...

Topic: YOU HAVE THE POWER Text: Luke 9.1-6 Luk 9:1  Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. Luk 9:2  And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. Luk 9:3  And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece. Luk 9:4  And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart. Luk 9:5  And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them. Luk 9:6  And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.  1. IT TAKES POWER TO REIGN OVER EVIL FORCES 1Jn 5:19  And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. Evil is real. And it cannot be defeated just by wishful thinking and good will. It takes the...

DON'T PLACE BURDENS ON PEOPLE Tayo Onaleye 2Corinthians 11  9  And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things  I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself. Let's avoid putting too much financial burden on church members. People can't get blessed if they don't give. Absolutely correct. But there's a point to which we can place the demand for giving on people that it becomes a burden upon them. We must avoid getting to that point in our churches and ministries. Every enlightened minister should aspire to be so blessed that you're never a burden to your members but rather a blessing. May we be like Nehemiah...... Neh 5:14 Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the ...

THINK WORLD CLASS Tayo Onaleye 2Corinthians 11 5  For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. Be super confident in the grace of God upon your life. Look at this statement from apostle Paul. It's a massive insight into his mentality. His mentality is world class. Ordinarily one would have thought that the greatest exploits after Jesus left would come from one of those who lived with Him in the flesh. But no. It came from Paul who didn't even meet Jesus physically. This verse lets us into the inner working of the psyche of the apostle. Hear what He said......  I'm in no way less than any of the top ministers! That's basically what apostle Paul said in this verse. His thoughts were world class. What robust self esteem! What great confidence! You must approach life what that type of robust self esteem and strong confidence. You must be world class in your mentality and approach. If you're called to the music...

RESTRICT ACCESS TO YOUR INNER CIRCLE Tayo Onaleye Text: Luke 8.40-56 Luk 8:51  And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. Luk 8:52  And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. Luk 8:53  And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. Luk 8:54  And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. Luk 8:55  And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat. Jairus requested that Jesus should heal his daughter. Before Jesus got to Jairus’ house the daughter had died. Jesus eventually raised the dead girl back to like but before He did, he removed some people from the space where He wanted to perform the miracle. Why did Jesus do this?  He did so because not everybody should be allowed into the inner circle of your life. Some of...

CHURCHES TAKING OVER REDUNDANT FACTORIES. Tayo Onaleye It's very simple.... Nature abhors a vacuum. The factory had been shut down for over a decade. Harsh economic environment the main culprit. The former factory is now very little more than dilapidated buildings. Very little economic value except for the real estate value. Then a church steps in. Weekly human capital development. Training programs...etc The former biscuit factory becomes human capital development factory. It's a matter of time.... The seed of human capital development is being sown from that soil that used to manufacture biscuits. The people being "manufactured" by the church from the former biscuit factory will produce many more biscuit factories. Truly.... And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. Isaiah 61.4 Isa 58:12 And they ...

THREE THINGS YOU OWE YOUR EMPLOYER Tayo Onaleye 1. RESPECT AND HONOUR Rom 13:7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. Your employer deserves honour. It's a due you owe her. 1 Timothy 6.1 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. 2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort Ephesians 6.5-8 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; 6 Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; 7 With good will doing service, as to the Lord, an...

HOLY SPIRIT, THE NOISE MAKER Tayo Onaleye Acts 2.2  Suddenly, a sound like the roar of a mighty windstorm came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came down from heaven with a very big noise. Why???? P U B L I C I T Y ! Publicity Publicity Publicity!!!! The HOLY SPIRIT could have come to fill the disciples quietly, after all He is the still small voice. But He didn't. Rather He made a lot of noise. Why??? The Holy Spirit made a lot of noise so as to get the attention of people!!!!!!!!! Acts 2.6  Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.  The HOLY SPIRIT used noise to gather the multitude!!! Please permit me to use human language..... The Holy Spirit is a "noise maker" for the kingdom! He made noise to pull in the crow...

THE MISSING LINK Tayo Onaleye If you're a leader worth your salt in this age you would have read books by John Maxwell and such excellent authors on people skills. You would have learnt how to treat people well, love people, honour people, respect people, build and develop people, work with teams, reward people, retain people etc But as good as all these are they are not enough. There's something very vital missing in your people skills arsenal: how to handle difficult relationships. That all relationships would be smooth is a myth. That some relationships would be tough is a given. So how do you deal with Korah, Dathan and Abiram? How do you handle Absalom, Miriam and Demas. Sometimes in life it is these challenging relationships that will define your success or failure just as Absalom singlehandedly overthrew the sweet Psalmist of Israel, the man after God's heart, the anointed of of the Most-High, David. Your leadership education, development and skill is funda...

PUT ONLY RUNNERS ON YOUR TEAM Tayo Onaleye John 20.1-4 Team building is a major function of leadership. And broadly speaking, there can just be only two types of people on any team: those who are running with the vision and those who are not. It takes running to actualize any vision. Hab 2:2 And the LORD answered me, and said,Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.  Only those who are running with the vision will help actualize it. Those on the team who are not running with the vision will eventually ground it. Mat 12:30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. Running with the vision symbolises PASSION. Hence only those who are passionate about the vision will actually pay the price to see it materialise. Every vision faces challenges. Only those who are passionate about the vision will stick with it for the long haul. Those who are not passionate about the vision ...

Tayo Onaleye, Nation Builder and Wealth Creation Agent STAND BY PEOPLE GOING THROUGH CHALLENGES Tayo Onaleye John 19.25  Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene Three young men were publicly and shamefully executed. Two of them were confirmed robbers. The third, the one in the middle wasn't really a criminal but he was being executed in a shameful manner. Nobody wanted to associate with such ignominious death. Yet..... His mother,  two other women and a disciple stood by him. They stood by His cross. Oh! How comforting, encouraging and reassuring that would have been for Jesus! His mother stood by Him! Two other women stood by Him. One of His disciples stood by Him. Life is challenging. People are going through things. People are fighting multiple battles on many fronts. People are carrying heavy crosses. Some are being crucified live by situations and circumstance...

YOUR TEAM MEMBERS WILL CATCH UP LATER Tayo Onaleye John 13.7 ISV Jesus answered him, “You don’t realize now what I’m doing, but later on you’ll understand. Peter was shocked that Jesus could "stoop so low" as to wash his feet. So Peter resisted Jesus washing Peter's feet. Then Jesus responded: Peter, for now you may not understand what I'm doing but later, you will.  A leader sees before and beyond others. As the leader, there are things you're seeing that some members of your team are not. So naturally..... There are things you do based on what you're seeing but because they are not yet seeing it yet, they may not understand it or may not buy into it. Try to communicate as effectively as you can. Seek buy-in as much as you can. But...... In case some of  your team members are not yet seeing some of the things you're seeing..... Like Jesus, calmly explain to them..... "You don’t realize now what I’m doing, but later on yo...
