Waiting for the Promise is a profoundly moving testament to faith and perseverance. Gbemi's candid documentation of her journey to motherhood offers readers a deeply personal and relatable experience. Her unwavering belief in God's promises, despite external challenges, is both inspiring and instructive. This book is more than a motherhood narrative; it's a blueprint for navigating life's storms with faith as your anchor.

Gbemisola and Baby CEO is a journey of faith and the fulfillment of God's promises.
This book did not sugarcoat the adversities. Gbemisola took us on of a journey of the range of emotions one can fill when waiting on a promise. Her vulnerability in sharing how she felt when she was down, how she rallied a committee of burden bearers and how she rose and decided to continue to serve God and others during her waiting season.
This book is a must read as it takes us through the challenges a believer might go through.
Gbemisola's story is a story of hope, faith, service and resilience in the face of odds. It's a story how God takes His children through the furnace of fire to bring out the gold in them.
The entire Ojo family is a family where God is center over and over again.
This is not only for mother's in waiting but also for everyone trusting God for the fulfillment of His promise

This is a book for everyone on a God journey. It's a reminder that through seasons of uncertainty our confidence is in the one who orchestrates a perfect end to every story.
Every chapter in this book vividly details what it means to live a life surrendered to God. Through Gbemisola's experiences and reflections, I'm encouraged to keep living purposefully; desiring and doing the Father's biding especially when things don't seem to be going to plan, my plan.
"Waiting For The Promise" is not just a book; it's a companion for those navigating their own journeys of faith and perseverance.

Turning your waiting period into a purposeful journey is a candid lesson I learned from Gbemisola’s story. Her story reassures us that God cannot mismanage our lives, even amidst fears. She shares her vulnerable moments of almost giving up and distancing herself from friends, and the steps she took to realign herself with God’s promises.
The lessons from her book are applicable to various aspects of life, including career, business, marriage, and health. If you're at a roadblock, feeling discouraged, or embarrassed by perceived unanswered prayers, reading 'Waiting on God's Promise' will strengthen your faith in God.

This is a book for everyone who is on a faith journey. Faith is about trust and obedience. Faith that isn’t tested isn’t faith at all, you’ll have to trust in God’s loving nature and His promise even when your reality is saying otherwise, and keep on obeying his word and instructions even when it may seem foolish or redundant, so you can lay hold of His promise. Gbemisola’s testimony is one you can latch onto in your trying season as she did to others’ testimonies which you will read in this book. By sharing her story, adding details of her struggles and vulnerabilities, Gbemisola has chosen to be a blessing to those who might be thinking such testimony is an exception and unattainable by regular people. God is no respecter of persons, but a respecter of faith. “Listen to what the Scriptures say: Because Abraham believed God’s words, his faith transferred God’s righteousness into his account.” (Romans 4:3 TPT)

My heart bursts with joy and gratitude as I write this review because this is us seeing with our eyes and holding in our hands what was conceived in the womb of the Spirit long before now.
I met Gbemi on 1st March 2024, after several missed opportunities of meeting her and was going to miss that opportunity again until she said “Elizabeth, I think I really need to meet you today because if we don’t meet today, I don’t think we will have the chance again”. I heard that in God voice… Hahaa and we had to meet against all odds on that day. We got into varying depth of conversations, and I learnt about her miracle pregnancy (20 weeks at the time). You can imagine my shock when I learnt that Our Precious One had arrived about 20 days after.
My dearest, I have listened to, witnessed and read your testimony on several occasions, with each time I feel my brain literally leaving my cranium because what manner of God is this? What manner of Father is this? What manner of Creator is this? What manner of Planner is this? What manner of Orchestrator is this?
I congratulate you again, welcome to your walking on water experience. Please send an hourly regard to “My Elizabeth”. I love you both so dearly.
Dear reader, please know this and let it register in you as a deep-seated conviction- *“God will not mismanage your life”*, He writes stories through our lives, permit Him to write a story through yours- because we were all created to bring Him pleasure.
“Worthy are You, our Lord and God, to receive the glory and the honor and dominion, for You created all things; by Your will they were [brought into being] and were created.
