NOTHING MATTERS BUT GOD!

 

IT DOESN’T MATTER? Who said that? Mama asked curiously

I didn’t know too, in fact I felt one of the officers were mocking me. I just kept ignoring this voice until I got tired of it interrupting my thoughts then I screamed out, WHAT DO YOU WANT, CAN’T YOU JUST BE QUIET, WHAT DO YOU WANT? But, it was like it was after me, mama the voice kept saying, “IT DOESN’T MATTER”. After screaming furiously, for days, I got tired and had no choice than to listen to what the voice had to say to me because it was unnecessarily persistent. Then, I said, ok what do you want to say, I just had to give it an audience so it can speak out and be silent. Mama, little did I know what this voice was capable of doing, it spoke just in few word, “IT DOESN’T MATTER BECAUSE I MATTER, IT DOESN’T MATTER BECAUSE MY WAYS ARE ALL THAT MATTERS, NOTHING OF THIS WORLD SHOULD MAKE YOU SAD BECAUSE I AM THE DELIVERER AND WHEN I SET MY HEART ON SOMETHING, I MAKE SURE TO DO IT. I HAVE SET MY EYES ON YOU EVEN FROM YOUR MOTHER’S WOMB, UP UNTIL NOW; I HAVE HEARD YOUR DEEP SILENT VOICE REACHING OUT FOR HELP. YOU MIGHT NOT ADMIT IT BUT STEPHEN, I HEAR YOU CALLING OUT AND THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS”! Mum, in my entire life, I’ve never heard such soothing words, sorry to say, even from you or the pastors, I mean mum, someone could hear me even without me uttering a word, truly I needed help, I didn’t want to die in that cell, tears formed in Ade’s eyes, Mama I which you were present to hear those words, I can never forget in my life. Then the voice continued, I HAVE LISTENED AND HEARD YOUR WORRIES AND FEARS, BUT LISTEN TO ME, THE END HAS NOT COME, I AM THE BEGINNING AND THE END, I KNOW THE END RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING. THEREFORE SON, LISTEN! I’LL GO BEFORE YOU NOW TO MAKE THIS CROOKED PATH STRAIGHT, IF YOU WILL HARKEN TO MY VOICE AND DO MY WILL, THEN I WILL MAKE A COVENANT WITH YOU THAT NOTHING IN THIS WORLD WILL TRAMPLE UPON”! After he said this, mama then gave me specifics on the day and time I would be leaving the prison, I struggled to believe, how can it be? Hmm but I looked forward to the day, I had no other choice and I was too weak to struggle, I just laid there waiting even though I couldn’t have access to date and time, I just stayed. Then, the day came, I heard noises outside, I wasn’t sure…….not until I heard my name, Ade Ade Ade, oh mama, my heart raced, my heartbeat got intense, I wanted to be sure I wasn’t dreaming that this was truly Debs calling out to me, lo and behold there it was, REALITY! Mama, the beginning and the end came through, oh immediately I regretted not accepting everything you and pastor had been telling me, then it sounded like myth but after this experience, you need not to tell me on what to do. God came through for me mum.

Glo Glo Glory to God, Debs shouted from the corner she stood

Aderemi, where you truly eavesdropping, Mama said stoning her with the throw pillow

She dodged, No mama, I was just opportune to be doing something here and I started hearing from the REALITY aspect. Uhm, yeah yeah, the gospel has always been a reality to us and it still is. So welcome to the hood brother, sorry I mean, welcome to the Jesus hood Dee Dee, Deborah filled with joy on hearing this, said to them.

So women, what’s the next step to take now? Ade asked

OK! Follow me mentee, Debs said sarcastically

What’s wrong with this girl now, Mama said as they all went in.

Babies Get Easily Sacrificed...

Image
  God brought my vision to something that we barely notice in the scriptures and I’d like to share; One sacrificial requirement out of the many, in the Old Testament which was never left out, is “a lamb with no defect”. Now, our focus is “the lamb” which is referred to an offspring of Sheep. Babies are fragile, so easy to handle and manipulate; with an adult, you’d need a lot of tactics in taming them but it’s not so with babies, just with a tender touch or words, you’ve automatically won them over. That’s one of the many reasons; a lamb was often required as part of the old sacrificial rituals, I mean, who wants to go through the struggle of dragging and pulling with the aggressive Ram (Male sheep). Having laid that foundation, I’d say further that, If as a born again Christian, you refuse to Grow in the knowledge of Christ but choose to remain a babe, being tossed around with words, then you’ll easily be sacrificed to the devil, not by God but by your lack of maturity, st...

THE DEVIL'S PLIGHT

Image
  The devil is always after the destruction of something well built. He is never pleased with growth and improvements. It saddens his heart to see men thrive towards purpose and fulfillment. He is the father of darkness; evil plight and vices are his agents. His bosom is in the atmosphere of disruption, damnation, disappointments, failures, sorrows, anxiety, shame and reproach. He is capable of just three qualities “to kill, steal and destroy” which make him our adversary and opposition party as far as this world is concerned, he is a devourer, and can choose any technique to carry out his acts. Due to this, the Kingdom of God is fully aimed at subduing the kingdom of darkness and taking total dominion here on earth, the scripture says in Psalms 24:1 “the earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it” , that is, even the devil is subjected to God. Therefore, we who have received the redemption through the blood of Jesus, the son of God, should never l...
