The Diary of a Praying CEO – read by Dr Aderemi Banjoko, – Founder, dkbPARTNERS, Kava Juru Farms and NextGenFL
My Dear Father,
In your presence is the fullness of joy and pleasure evermore. I know when my heart is overwhelmed, I come to the Cross of Jesus which is higher than I.
All the days of my life, you have been a solid and firm foundation; you have never forsaken me, and you have never abandoned me. For this, I am grateful, and words alone cannot express my gratitude for all that you have done.
It is based on this premise that I come into your presence to seek your counsel on some key projects that we have lined up for the coming year.
Your word advocates that we can ask you for wisdom and you give liberally. It also says that you give wisdom; and from your mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
So, as we launch the Fund for the Affordable Housing project and fundraising to build the 40 bed Maternity Hospital in Rwanda to serve the community, let the Fear of the Lord form the framework for every aspect of the projects because the fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom. And because we want everything to be in line with proper governance, we acknowledge that to depart from evil is understanding.
So, we pray that everything concerning the infrastructure of the Fund and our fundraising activities for the hospital project are based on godly truth and righteousness.
Bring the right investors to provide the finance to enable us to complete the relevant deliverables.
Provide an environment of trust and diligence amongst the staff responsible for the running of the Fund and hospital project from both an operations and management point of view.
Grant us favour with the government, banks, regulatory bodies, and other key stakeholders that will guarantee the success of the Fund Launch and completion of the hospital project.
Until the next board meeting; Bless us, shine your face upon us, be gracious to us, go ahead of us and grant us favour and peace
Yours CEO
