THE KING'S DELIGHT


Part Nine

Adigun was happy that he was able to escape while Arìké went inside to pray ahead of the Bible study

It was time for the Bible study and Adigun was nowhere to be found, but  she wasn't bothered as if she knew he won't come. The people did not decrease, rather they increased. She thanked God for the lives of the people and continued with her teaching.

When she was almost through with the teaching, Adigun strolled in and sat at the back roll. After the Bible study and people had gone home, he came to her.

"Arìké, I am sorry for coming late. I had to follow my daddy to the farm to clear the entire weed. Moreover, your ministration today was powerful. More grace" he said

"Oh...thank God. No problem, why don't you go home and rest? You must be really tired" she said

"Yes I am, but I told myself I had to show up, no matter how tired I am" he said and smiled

"Thank you. If you don't mind, I need to go inside" she said

"Please, can you spare me some minutes? I need to discuss with you" he said

"Okay, no problem. What is that? She asked

" Arìké, I don't want you to take what I am about to say harshly, but I want you to think about it because I believe the lord is leading me to say it. Can we pray" he said

"Okay" Arìké said and they prayed

After the prayers, he said "Arìké, I love you and I want to marry you" he said as he looked into her eyes

"Hmm...Adigun, I already know that is what you are about to say, but can you give me some time to pray about this" she said

"Arìké... There's nothing to pray about. I know you love me and I also do. Together, we shall expand the kingdom of God" he said.

The last statement really touched her and she said "Adigun! You should be happy I said I will pray about it but since, you aren't even sensitive. I will rather make it clear now, Adigun me Arìké can't marry you.

Ooh...you are surprised, don't be. You might be able to fool me but you have forgotten that you can't fool God and since he is my father, he will always tell me when I am in danger. 

While I was praying this afternoon, the lord revealed to me every of your plans. You think you can act like someone who is in Christ, to get me. No Adigun, you are wrong. The lord has said in his word, that he won't leave the righteous forsaken. I am sure you didn't see that in your Bible because, if you did. You wouldn't have acted in such way.

I cried not because I was deceived, but because of how you didn't fear God. You used the name of the lord in vain and you are so happy and relaxed.

Adigun, you need to pray to God for forgiveness. I pray the lord forgive and change you totally. Stop living a fake life to impress or gain the attention of people. Good night and have a lovely night rest" she said as she stood up and entered the house. Adigun was touched by those words and he felt embarrassed as he couldn't say anything. He stood up gently and walked home.

It only takes God to reveal this to someone who has a good communication/intimacy with God.

How is your communication with your father? 

Part 10 will be posted tomorrow by 8:30am

Stay with me as we journey together.

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...
