Growing up in the southeastern part of Nigeria, I did not meet my grandfather before he died. Stories passed down orally suggest that my grandfather was a great man, and though the details of what made him great were not revealed, his grandchildren have sufficient evidence to prove that he was indeed great. His grandchildren are proud of his legacy and their heritage. The Bible tells us if everything Christ said and did were to be written down, the volumes of books written from them would barely find space to accommodate them in the world. If that statement were an exaggeration because of the phrase “I suppose,” suffice it to say that John recorded the most salient prophetic points and miracles that identify the Messiah to us for that purpose: “That you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name” (John 20:31). John provided sufficient proof that Jesus is indeed the Messiah and the Savior of the whole world. He died, was buried, and was raised to life on the third day so that I may live. I believe John’s testimony about Christ. Do you believe in Christ?

My equipping at Haggai International continues to inspire me not only to strive for excellence in my work in God’s vineyard, but also to encourage others to do the same. In my view, answering God’s call is the noblest decision any man can make, and serving in His vineyard bestows the greatest honor anyone can hope for. Each dawning day, I witness God’s greatness in protection, provision for His work, and countless confirmations of His promises in bringing souls to Himself when He is lifted up in the behavior, words, and lifestyles of His servants. Nothing else can be more gratifying than to watch God bear witness to His Word as His servants proclaim and declare the Word of life. Keep us on your prayer lists.
