THE KING'S DELIGHT


Part Five

Arìké was commonly known as Hadassah by the people.

It was time for the meeting, as she could hear the voice of people talking and singing outside.

"Why are their voices so loud? I thought you said they are 20 people, but it seems they are more than that? Her father asked her as they were about to step out.

Daddy, they are only 20 people. Maybe it is the noise of the people passing by she said and smiled..

"That's true" he said and she opened the door as they stepped out but they were surprised by what they saw.

"Jesu (Jesus) Arìké!" he shouted her name

"Baami!" she said surprisingly

"I thought it was only 20 people but what I am seeing is more than that. This is almost half of the village. How are we going to do this? He asked

"Baami, my father will do it" she said as they moved closer to the people. Immediately the people saw her, they kept quiet as Arìké was praying within her. This time around, it was not only the youths and teenagers. Both old and adult were present to hear God's word.

Arìké knew this was the time to introduce Jesus afresh to the people and she prayed to God to help her. She didn't have to worry about how the people are going to sit, because some of them brought their chairs from home and everyone was sitting. She told her father, to lead them in the opening prayers after the praise and worship.

While Arìké was teaching them from the book of John chapter1, God was touching the hearts of people. After the teaching, many people gave their lives to Christ and she prayed for them. She also taught them the significance of prayer. She could not give them anything but they were not bothered. They were all blessed, including her father and they thanked her as they packed some of the chairs that belong to her before going to their various home.

Immediately, Arìké went inside to pray. She was amazed at what God made through her life. After her prayers, she came out and meets her father in the sitting room

"Baami, I didn't know you are still around" she said and sat beside him

"Hadassah, you are a great woman and you are surely going to be great. You are a light and you shall not be hidden, you will surely shine bright. Thank you for giving yourself to God" he said

"Amen baami, thank you for supporting me" she said

"Thank God" she said and looked at the time

"Wow, it's already 6pm. I need to go to the farm, there is no stick for us to cook this night" she said and stood up

"I am coming with you" he said

"No baami. Continue with your study, God will see me through. I am not alone, let me quickly go" she said

"My God will surely be with you" he said

"Amen" she said and went out


Part 6 will be posted tomorrow by 8:30am

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
