30
Yeah, the popular film is 300, but this about to be popular post is 30…
I’m clocking 30 on the 4th of August, 2007 that’s Saturday, and I’m celebrating it on the same day between 4-6pm at the Little saints Orphanage at Palmgrove like I did last year. I feel a bit funny talking about my age like most people, but for me, that age is a benchmark age for me. Three of the bible characters that inspire me the most, entered into the full realm of their missions at 30.
Jesus started his full time ministry at 30
David became King in Isreal at 30
Joseph became prime minister in Egypt at 30
Early this year, during my time of meditation, God impressed it on my heart, that I was about the age of his Son, when he was on earth, and that I should stop limiting myself.
John the baptist was thirtish when the media of his time classified him as the voice.
Martin Luther King Jr was thirtish when he registered the words -”I have a dream” on the sands of time.
Here is a clip of a record about Martin Luther Jr that inspires me
Martin Luther King, Jr., (January 15, 1929-April 4, 1968)
In the eleven-year period between 1957 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times, appearing wherever there was injustice, protest, and action; and meanwhile he wrote five books as well as numerous articles. In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. and inspiring his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”, a manifesto of the Negro revolution; he planned the drives in Alabama for the registration of Negroes as voters; he directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 people to whom he delivered his address, “l Have a Dream”, he conferred with President John F. Kennedy and campaigned for President Lyndon B. Johnson; he was arrested upwards of twenty times and assaulted at least four times; he was awarded five honorary degrees; was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963; and became not only the symbolic leader of American blacks but also a world figure.
In the Jewish Nation when you clock 30, you enter your decade of reigning. In an article writen by a great friend of mine Tope Ogunfayo here you can get to learn a lot more about the other decades. If it’s not happening to you yet, don’t worry, the decade is 10yrs.
Last week, one of the girls from Little Saints came with one of her aunties to my office, she asked me if I’ll still be celebrating my birthday with them this year. I told her that I have not yet been able to think of a better way. So… come August 4, 2007 Saturday, I’ll be celebrating my birthday at the Little Saints Orphanage. It’s 6b D’alberto Road, Palmgrove Estate, Palmgrove. It’s the road beside the petrol station at Palmgrove B/S. I also want to use this birthday as an opportunity to raise N1,000,000 only for the orphanage. I know you may say there are poorer orphanages that require help, I know this orphanage is well managed, I’ve been there, and I know that they can do more, with more. I’ll be writing them the minimum of N1,000,000 check on that day, so if you want to be a part, just credit my account ahead (GTBank 223863354110 - Adeolu Akinyemi). If nobody credits my account, I’ll bear it fully.
About 100 of the children who grew up in this orphanage will be present with us, they’ll dance, sing, and generally give us an opportunity to share our warmth and laughter.
I’m dedicating this August to Charitable acts. God has been very good to me, trying to count my blessings is herculean. We get, because the divine trusts us to give to those who without their own choices live below their potentials.
August is packed for me already, and in the spirit of charity, i’m taking off 10% from all our seminars this August.

Deolu,
It is always good to come here and get inspired with your posts.
Indeed, the true measure of a man’s wealth is not by what he possesses but by how much he gives.
You have been a true blessing to your generation and I am proud to be associated with you.
Have a great birthday ahead!
Happy birthday in advance egbon. A few years ago in the month of August,precisely on the 16th,i was born. So, August is a very special month for me too. I have been talking to a few friends of mine who are also August people about finding a way to celebrate this month.Not with people who do not need your food and drinks to keep them from sleeping hungry that night - because all the people who would come for your bash can actually feed themselves for that night and infact many nights hence - but rather with those who truly need the help. We’re still working on it but u definitely have me as part of this LSO fund raiser. I’ll put in a little token to that effect. A friend asked why i was embarking on a youth development initiative and i told him it’s a way to give back to the society and he asked what the society had given me previously. Good enough,someone on my team told him one did not have to wait for the society to give to him before he gives to it.
It’s a pity i won’t be able to appear at LSO in person but i’ll appear in a better way…u know what i mean.
To everyone out there,please kindly be the angel sent to these Little Saints. Remember,when an angel was sent to the Virgin Mary-a saint, it led to a miracle that turned the whole world right side up,so please be an Angel. God bless you as you join the Special,Privileged August people to make this happen. GOD BLESS YOU.
Deolu,

Deolu,
Happy birthday in advance. God will never stop doing wonderful things in your life. You have been a great blessing to many and God in his infinite mercy will continue to uphold you and your family (amen).
You have set many free from poverty disease by giving us the little information we needed to suceed.I remembered how you taught us mth 101(1998) tutorial in faculty of education OAU with great passion. You are a blessing.
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy birthday to a burning and shinning light.
what’s the time for the birthday.
Deolu, glory be to GOD for you. You are indeed a man with great destiny just like those ones you’ve mentioned. Moreover, with JESUS on your side your achievements will know no bound. May the LORD increase you greatly and comfort you on all sides. Psalm 71:21.
Pls as a member of clubfreedom, how do I join you on ecash investment?
Many times when I come to this blog site, I am moved to tears. This is another of such times. Pastor Tea’s write up is insightful and a timely reminder as I expect the arrival of God’s heritage to be entrusted in my care.
Adeolu, you are a Saviour to this generation. Happy birthday in advance. I strongly hope to be at your birthday, and the hope is further strengthened because it’s taking place at that orphanage.
Deolu,
Happy birthday to you!!! Keep up the good work.
You are indeed a rare gem…
What’s your account number ?
“To God be the Glory, great things He hath done……”
What more do I need to say, you have bee sent to liberate people of your generation and you have not failed in your approach.
30…. a great year to look forward to and I must say that God in His infinite mercies will bless you, be with you, protect you and above all keep you at His right hand on the final day.
I will be calling Tola now to schedule myself.
Thanks a bunch ‘Deolu cos you have benchmarked yourself in this time and day.
Hi Deolu,
Happy birthday and wishing you many more blessings. you are indeed a gem. Ride on with the good works.
Chairman,
Happy Birthday in advance,
Let me tell you the truth about you…
It’s your time to reign in the fullest of your GLORY and in increasing measure. You aint seen nothing yet. This is just the beginning. Just a speck of the glory that will be revealed.
As someone who’s also clocking 30 later this year, I’ll also be coming over to celebrate with you at the LSO. What better way to begin your reign.
Congratulations! It’s the dawn of your reign.
Happy B’day Deolu,
You’re a GREAT MAN…not like Udeme…but like DEOLU. Its amazing how much you’ve achieved already. I believe the next phase of your assignment is about to begin.
I celebrate with you ‘cos of your impact and ‘cos I’m also August(9th).
Again, Happy b’day in advance. Spread your wings and continue to fly.
Bukunmi
happy birthday Deolu.The grace of God will lift you up.as you have helped destinies,yours will continue to be brighter till the days of His coming.
On behalf of my family anfd I, I say congratulations
King of your domain!!!! Welcome to the 30s club! I also clocked 30 on the 5th of April and I really did feel so so special on that day…………….and in the month in general because people who I thought didnt even have my numbers had my phones bouncing all day - I felt truly special. Its a time when you while appreciating God for how far He has brought you, you cant help doing the guilt trip briefly for not having done as much for Him - at least thats the way I felt!!! I agree with you when you say He Has done much for you - and would agree more if you say He’s done plenty more THROUGH YOU. You have given hope to quite a number of people Deolu in more ways than you know. Do continue to grow in the knowledge of Him and I’m quite sure we’ll meet soon - when I come to report my first cycling out to you!!! Continue to abound in His Grace and I wish you and your family all the best.
CHHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Sir
Adeolu……..or would I say Adeoluwa,
Your name sure resounds and reverberates the evidence of God’s presence in every way and where He is, one cannot not but walk in His ways…which is why you are making waves….Those who walk in His ways always make waves
Congrats my brother as you celebrate your 3rd decade on planet earth….that you will continue in this light is not the issue here…but my prayer is that God will multiply you in ‘clones’….making our world a better place.
Ise Oluwa o le baaje
Happy Birthday
300.. a film that talks about how 300 men sought and fought for the deliverance of their kinsmen from oppression and subjugation…@ 30 your story talks about how, you and your team and we friends lead the battle against the ills of the society- poverty, pain and corruption. not just to birth a refurbished nation…NO! a new people, a new nation and an array of role models!
ordinary men count days, you’ve made your days count.
Don’t stop!
Adeolu,
Happy Birthday in advance.
Ordinary men count their days. Great men make their days count. You days are counting.
My prayer for you is that, As God adds more years to your life, may be also add more life to your years.
You are indeed a shinning light. Ride on prosperously….like your Lord and Saviour!
On every birthday! i tell my friends to fill the rest pages of their life with unbeatable records…..but meeting you, i’d like to reframe it and say Continue to fill the rest pages of your life with unbeatable records…oh never introduced myself?…oops the month was JUNE and year 2007….the venue was SLT UNILORIN…i sat hours watching you in “awesome wonder”.. my name is shola…i’m gaduating this AUGUST from Microbiology department.. but i love writing and playing the piano not only as an hobby but also as a Habbit..
Congratulations Deolu. Seeing all you have achieved before 30 is a great motivation. You’ll still achieve lots more. The sky is the beginning, and there’s no limit. Happy Birthday

can you please gist me more on this DUBAI BILLIONAIRES IN TRAINING,can i still make it to be among those that will go with you guys,if its possible,i will surely like to be included,thanks.
hello deolu, HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ARREARS!!! welldone 4 d gud work. i pray that God will continue to grant u more wisdom n grace in this work. and also spare your life. please keep it up.
please, i will like to know more about the ecash, 6k4u and the rest. thanx. ve a wonderful day.
Pls accept my belated birthday wishes.
Adeolu means The Lords Crown,The son of Befitting Boldness(Akinyemi).What a befitting name!
My prayer 4 you is that you will live long for you to continually reap the rewards of your labor of love.You will not die young in Jesus name.Amen.
I am at this point going to fly you a kite.I notice a lot of high activity and interest in MLM especially 6k4u and CF.
I am a geologist of thirty years standing and will like to open up discussions on unimaginable but unrealized potential in SOLID MINERALS IN NIGERIA.
We have all minerals even some like Rhodium(Platinum/Palladium group metal) which is 4 times more expensive than Gold.
It pains me when not much is being done in this sector apart from the Chineese who buy these minerals almost for next to nothing.
To go to the next level we should look at other opportunities which to my mind is what this site all about.
All equiries can be posted on this site,copied to to my e-mail(streamoil@yahoo.com) and will be attended to.
Once again HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ARREARS.
