*PART THIRTY ONE*
First semester was over, Adura and Pelumi decided not to go home.
"Adura, I am surprise daddy didn't question me, when I told him I will be staying in school" Pelumi said
"Really, thank God. We still have to keep praying" Adura said
"Yes o. I pray God bring them all into the knowledge of Christ. My sincere prayers" Pelumi said
"Amen in Jesus name" Adura said
"Thank you for coming into my life. It's just painful you came, when I am about leaving" Pelumi said.
"I believe everything has a reason. What if I have been here from the beginning and we didn't meet? What matter is, God's plan, coming to pass in our lives" Adura said
"Hmm..thank you very much" Pelumi said
For everything that happen to someone, is for a reason. Take a look at Adura, if the ailment haven't delayed her from getting into the university, Pelumi wouldn't have met her. Being delayed does not mean you have been denied. God still has a plan for you.
"Look, I have a gift for you" Adura said and stretched it to her.
"Yipee...what's inside? She said and opened it. It's a gown. She thanked her and wore it.
"It's beautiful, you're wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14)" Adura said as she saw a whole transformation.
"God bless you Adura. I really appreciate everything you are doing in my life. Thank you for producing a new me. Only God can reward you. I love you" she said as she was about to cry.
"No..don't cry, thank God for everything. I really appreciate you, meeting you has taught and exposed some bad attitude in my life. I am really grateful" Adura said and Pelumi phone rang
"It's my daddy" she said and picked the call
"Hello sir, how are you doing? She asked
"Ogunsan, you need to come home. It's your elder brother" he said
"What happen? Ki lo se? She asked
"Ma bo nile(Just be coming)" he said and hanged the call. She explained everything to Adura as she packed few of her clothes and rushed home.
What could have happened?

*PART THIRTY TWO*
Adura and Pastor Jimi, kept praying for her family. Adura waited for so long but didn't get any call from her, or even a text message as she decided to call her.
"Hello Pelumi, how's everything going? Adura asked
"Adura, i am sorry i for not calling. Everything is not going fine here o. My dad is also not feeling fine. I don't know what to do, I have been praying since yesterday and no sign yet" she said
"Calm down Pelumi, I understand how you feel but I want you to know, our God is not a magician. His words says in (Philippians 4:6), do not be anxious for anything but in every circumstances and in everything, by prayers continue to make your wants known to God.
Also (Matthew 21:22) says, whatever you ask in prayers, you will receive if you have faith. You need to believe they have been healed, while praying and thank God for health restoration because he hears the prayer of the righteous (Proverb 15:29).
You need to believe and trust God in your prayers" Adura said.
"Thank you very much. I can't even believe I am feeling sorry for them, after realizing the evil plans they have towards me. Can you believe, they were planning of casting spell on me, to come home.
Also, I found out my brother is becoming the next priest for the family. Now, I know God is fighting my battle" she said
"Really.. Hmm, this is what God did to the people in (2Chronicle 20:17) when he told them, that their battle isn't theirs. You just have to keep praying for mercy" Adura said
"Hmm..mercy, thank you very much" she said
"We are also joining you in prayers and I believe God will restore their health back...Amen" Adura said
"Amen, thank you. I have to attend to them now. I will call you later" she said and hanged the call.
Truly, the lord never forsake his loved ones. He is always with us and he will fight our battle for us (Isaiah 41:10, 1Peter 3 :12-13)
Who is going to harm you, if you be the follower of that which is good?
Everyone kept asking of her, as school reopen for second semester but Adura could not say much.
Few days later, she decided to call her...
"Hello Pelumi... How are you doing? How is everything going? I have been calling your number since, but no response. I hope you are fine? She asked but Pelumi was just crying.
