WHEN YOUR STORY IS SHARED

When Your Story is Shared

Have you ever thought about how you want your story to be shared? You know, the story of your life - with all its ups and downs, twists and turns. It's a unique tale that only you can tell, and it's filled with moments that have shaped you into the person you are today.


When your story is shared, how would you want it to be? Would you want it to be a testament to the power of living a purpose-driven life? Would you want it to inspire others to find their own purpose and passion? Would you want your story to be a reminder that our lives can have a profound impact on those around us, and that we all have the ability to influence others in meaningful ways?


I think about this a lot, and I realize that I want my story to be shared with intention and purpose. I want it to be told in a way that shows how I've used my gifts and talents to make a difference in the world. I want my story to be a catalyst for others to discover their own purpose and to use their influence to impact those around them positively.


So, how about you?

How would you want your story to be shared?

Would you want it to be a story of how you've used your influence to inspire and uplift others?

Would you want it to be a testament to the ripple effect of kindness and compassion?


Whatever it is, remember that your story has the power to inspire and motivate others to live a life of purpose and influence.

Your Breakthrough Is Worth The Wait

September 29, 2025
Not long ago, my wife and I went to a restaurant for brunch. We ordered something simple; pancakes and French toast. Within minutes, our plates arrived. But there was a couple seated nearby who had ordered a grand wooden platter filled with all sorts of delicacies. They waited much longer. When their food finally came, everyone in the restaurant turned and whispered “Wow!” They had this sizzling whole fish platter that I had never seen before in my life. That day, I learnt a truth: nothing “Wow” comes quick. Beloved, maybe you’re in a season where it looks like others are being served before you. Their careers are moving faster, their prayers seem answered sooner, their dreams unfolding while you’re still waiting. But remember this: waiting is not wasting. God is not late; He is preparing something bigger, something weightier, something that will make others say, “Wow, only God could have done this.” Hebrews 10:37 says, “He who is coming will come and will not delay.” Delay doesn’t mean denial. Waiting is God’s way of maturing you for what He is bringing or maturing what He is bringing for you. So hold on. Your platter is being prepared. And when it arrives, it will have been worth the wait. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo | The Purpose Preacher

Are you an eagle in a cage?

September 8, 2025
Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
