Seven figures went into @VerseTap before a single kobo came back. I never once sat down to do the maths. . . So when a new subscription comes in now, monthly or yearly, what I feel is not profit. It is gratitude. . . Building @VerseTap stretched me in no small way. But I gladly spent on it because the idea needed to become solid and genuinely useful, not because I was counting down to a return. Of course a product must eventually pay for itself. But that was never the fuel. . . The fuel was knowing preachers across 50+ countries open the app before they step out to minister. The fuel was the feedback from devoted users who write to say the thing actually works for them. . . Not virality. Not trend. Real, measurable impact. . . And here is what I would say to anyone building something right now. If the only thing keeping you going is the money coming back, you will quit long before the impact shows up. Build for the impact. The money follows people who were never begging for it. . . I remain your BrandCore Strategist. #SimeonTaiwo #VerseTap #SermonNotes #BibleStudy #ChurchTechnology

@VerseTap AI Sermon Note just got a serious upgrade. It's no longer just a Bible study and sermon note app. . . You can now turn what you read into a commitment. Pick a verse, write what it means to you in your own words, tie it to commitment, set a review window, 7, 21, 30, or 40 days, and @VerseTap checks in on you daily until you seal it. . . Reading the word is one thing. Doing something with it is another. VerseTap now closes that gap. . . You can also now share your notes with other @VerseTap users. Send a sermon note or a reflection as a .vtap file and it opens straight into their app. No copying verses into WhatsApp. No retyping what God said to you. . . Technology is not just a tool for convenience. It is now a tool for spiritual maturity too. . . If you're already a @VerseTap user, update your app version. If you aren't a user yet, this is the time to get onboard. It's available on Android, iOS and web. . .

We're currently building an accountability tool into @VerseTap. A system that helps you to stay on a passage of the Bible, create a commitment around it, and have daily trackers/reminders to help you track your growth and alignment and drop reflections on that passage. This is being released in a few days. . . Also, VerseTap notes will now be shareable as .vtap files, and they open immediately on the recipient's device. And if the recipient has no VerseTap, they'll be prompted and redirected to download it. . . We are Zion Builders. We deploy our giftings to equip the saints on all fronts. . .

@VerseTap has been used more in United States today than in Nigeria. First time I'm seeing usage in Nigeria come second. And it's been used in 6 countries already today.

"Faith," the Bible says, "comes by hearing. And hearing by the Word of God." Now, you can literally hear what you've written with @VerseTap AI Sermon Note-taker. . . And the Beautiful part? It also reads out every passage that your Bible references point to. You can simply stay plugged in to your own notes, hands-free, and connected to the Word of Faith. . . Remember, we're just getting started. This is just the beginning. . . @VerseTap. Tap the Verse. Feel the Life. #AISermonNote #SermonNotes #BibleStudy #ChurchTechnology #SermonPrep

As I listened to @eric_gugua on Saturday, I began to evaluate my own journey as a founder, builder, and thought leader. And one of the highlights of my learning today is that first quote I captured with our @VerseTap AI-powered note-taker. It helped me to instantly locate the associated verse of the Bible and attach it. . . His words helped me understand why we often underestimate what can be achieve in a day, but overestimate what we can achieve in a year. A day looks small, and we often assume we can always make up for anyone we lose to frivolities, and there will be no repercussions. But that is exactly how we miss out on kairos moments. . . I remember the story of how VerseTap came as a simple negligible idea last year September, and by December it was built. No noise. No ovations. No headlines. But right now, it's serving believers across 50+ countries, with close to 2000 downloads across Play Store and App Store. Without any singular paid promotion. . . Has it cost me a lot? More than I ever anticipated. But has it also pushed me and stretched my old limits beyond measure? Absolutely yes! Did I ever anticipate it was going to get this far in a short time? Not at all! I just moved with a simple idea of a problem worth solving. . . And like Eric said, "Make your plans. Do your due diligence. But never forget that until the market begins to test your idea, nothing is concrete," it was Mike Tyson who also said, "Everyone has a plan until they're punched in the face." Life always has its own plans. And no matter how brilliant your preparation is, you really don't have a plan until life has greeted you with its own and you're still able to stand. . . Being a builder and a founder for more than 8 years, I can attest to everything @eric_gugua shared on Saturday. It was such a great pleasure listening to him, and even drawing inferences from the things he wasn't even saying, which I was catching. . . I celebrate the greatness in you, Mr. Eric Gugua. #beyondconvensionph #ericgugua #beyondconversationportharcourt #beyondconversationph #beyondconversation

"Grateful" doesn't fully cover it, but it's where I'll start. . . Today I had the honour of sharing the @VerseTap story at the Port Harcourt Christian Media Conference 4.0 organized by the Christian Cre8ive Fellowship. . . Standing before that room and talking about a tool built out of my own struggle with Sermon Prep and Word Study, then watching it land with people who live with the same struggle, is not something I take lightly. . . The reception was beyond what I expected. Ministers, creatives, and serious believers came up afterward just to say how much they connected with it. . . Some downloaded it right there at the venue, including highly respected influencers like Mr. Iyo Prosper and Mrs. Wenenda Gift, who I had the privilege of meeting in person for the first time today. . . To everyone who stopped by, asked questions, met with my team to enquire more, thank you. . . This is why @VerseTap exists. Not for downloads alone, but for moments like this, where the problem you built something for turns out to be everyone's problem too. . . Onward and forward we go! . .

When David was confronted by his eldest brother while he was making enquiries about the situation at the battlefield, his response was, "Is there not a cause?" . . When you see any fire that refuses to go out, any move that proves stubborn and impervious to contrary forces, and any mission that continues to stay relevant despite the odds, just know that there is a very strong cause. . . For many people who still wonder why I carry @VerseTap on my head, and if at all it's worth the whole energy, the answer I have for people like that is, "There is a cause!" A huge thanks to the Christian Cre8ive Fellowship for giving us the platform to share this story and help thousands of people to enjoy the value of @VerseTap. . . Our greatest unfaithfulness to God is in keeping small, what He intended to make BIG. I will not be such an unfaithful servant. @VerseTap wil get to the ends of the earth. Yes, it feels scary most times. It's obviously bigger than me, and that is all the validation I need. . .

The first prompt ever produced in the history of creation: "Let there be light." . . Output: "And there was light." Review: "And God saw that the light was good." . . Model Used: Spiritual Intelligence (S.I) "And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters." . . In case you're not aware, S.I is the greatest intelligence you can ever have access to.
