Another Thread - The 4th Story

How my account kept getting replenished with almost the exact amount I took out of it. —— What Paul Adefarasin had to do with it.

My previous threads have mentioned how I met Dangote , Fola Adeola & Edem Duke via Oyedepo messages. I told no lies

So to reiterate and give background to this story. For some young kid out there going through darkness and confusion. I want you to know work hard , work your passion but there will be times hardwork isn’t enough to solve a problem and that’s where you need faith or a miracle.

I was a stubborn kid. Got suspended from Kings college,always in trouble in Navy Abeokuta. But stubborn kids are great because we also face failure with a resolute no.Years of stubbornness teaches you to say no to obstacles. ❤️ stubborn kids who grow up to face life positively

I left SOU saatchi because i felt like I was the worst in advertising there. Everyone was so good. I learnt a lot but I spent only 8 mths. Then i started my agency. I got so successful b4 I started shutting down. My success brought about 2 great agencies.

On the foundation of DM2 success. My best friend @abasiama started the mad agency Wildfusion digital & from Wildfusion my other brother @EditiEffiong started Anakle Digital. 3 of us are BFF’s from Calabar & we conquered a legacy sector in Lagos &it started from a preacher I heard

So I had finished NYSC and I was moving back to Lag when I drag myself lazily one Sunday to this church in calabar. The preacher says something that changed my life and I mentioned it to @Abasiama life and it changed his life. This is why it’s good to listen. You need just 1 word

The preacher is talking about the blessing of being a stranger. And he says everyone God made great in the Bible he 1st made a stranger. Think about it. Abraham moved. David went to sauls palace. Joseph- Egypt. Moses- wilderness. Jacob - went to Laban. Israel - Egypt etc.

Even Jesus had to come to earth. So I made up my mind to start a business in Lag where I knew no one & Abas joined me and then @EditiEffiong joined Abas & 3 agencies. DM2 Wildfusion & Anakle Digital are born concurrently. This stranger blessing worked.

However I worked my butt off. I spent nights sleeping in the office preparing pitches. I listened to Oyedepo & Adefarasin as often as I could. I won accounts with 2 people when other agencies failed with 100 staff. But it wasn’t just hardwork and my tweets are for the extra.

So one year the most amazing thing happens to me and it is a word from Paul Adefarasin. But let me give you a background to how my faith works. I’m not a holy person or religious in any way. I’m just a believer. I hear something I believe and say it out.

I go to church late 😩. I sit at the back and I leave immediately after the offering😩. Many times my mother has to call me on Sunday to go to church. I probably was in the club partying all Saturday and slept through Sunday, wake up FiFA. I’m in no way your model Christian. 😩.

But I learnt something about Jesus early. The highest form of holiness is faith. He would rather heal & bless prostitutes, runs girls , tax collectors &. thieves who have faith for what they ask than listen to religious people who are over familiar with the word or their teachers

My boy owns a massive club in Lag and he will leave the club Sunday morning 5 am to drive to OTA Winners Chapel to go worship. Jesus hears him. Now I’m I saying live recklessly or don’t be holy. NO O!!!

But I’m saying never think because you haven’t been good your prayers are hindered. It’s a lie. Your sins & mine mean nothing to Jesus if you approach him in faith. This is why before he healed anyone, prostitute or thief he always 1st said ......

Your sins are forgiven. Why?? So you don’t focus on your sins & it hinders your faith because you think will he answer me 😩 I just fornicated ? He starts with - your sins are forgiven. So let’s get that your guilt out of the way now your faith has made you whole. Be it unto you

So back to Paul Adefarasin. It’s Passover night into the new year a few years ago. I’m going to the club with my friends. But as I don’t want to die in the new year, I make a quick detour through House On The Rock. 😂😂😂. Abeg o! Make I go pray.

So HOTR then is still @ Muson Center. I get there late!! I’m so late I’m sitting in the garage watching on a screen and I can’t hear a word @pauladefarasin says. Except one statement that changed my whole new year 😳😳😳😳. This was all I heard that night. 😳😳😳😳

He asks a question .. Do you know why Jesus gave the responsibility of the holding the money bag to Judas who was a known thief ? Then he answers “ because no matter how much Judas steals cash from that bag the supply is from heaven it can never finish”. Everyone screams😳😳😳

That statement didn’t leave me. As I was driving to the club from church. It filled my soul and I prayed in the car. Lord Jesus, pls help my ad agency.This year my account will be like your money bag because my supply is from you, my money won’t finish. I enter club go groove 😂

This next tweet is absolute truth. That year was madness. If took a major amount out of my company account .e.g let’s say N5m to pay for something. In less than two days Sprite will call me with a job of N5.5m. If I took out N800k , I would get a client pay me N850 in a week.

Now apply that to much higher amounts. I won so many jobs & pitches that year. I had to tell my babe the story. She claimed it was her good spirit. Me I knew where it came from 🤦‍♂️. My account got replenished with the same amount I took out throughout that whole year.

The next year it stopped 😩😩😩😩. If I know I for talk 2 years. 😩😩😩😩. That miracle astounds me. I prayed it again it didn’t work 😩😩😩. But that year I heard just one word from Paul Adefarasin and I got that miracle.

So my point to you hustling in sorrow. I’ve been there. Nigeria is difficult. You need an anchor outside yourself. As I leave advertising I can easily give TED talks about how genius I was but I know the truth. God just iced my cake because I listened and prayed the words I heard

Let me tell you how much listening to Oyedepo & Paul Adefarasin has helped me in dark times. It’s taught me to believe the Bible so much that It rubbed off on my friends. True story below. My homeboy calls me at 5am that his wife had a miscarriage. They had struggled for a kid..

For 5 years. She bled all Over the bed and she was on the hospital floor broken. He was a zombie. I told him what I heard Oyedepo say. Have you given her communion. He said no. I said bro you know what to do. That’s the weapon.

He drove out bought bread and wine and gave it to his wife for two days in the hospital and when the DR’s report came back. The Dr said if anyone sees my former report they’ll think I’m a fraud. They have a beautiful baby.

So my tweet as I finally exit this business is. Work is great. You need connections. But as you do so. You need God for dark periods when nothing, not even your prayers help you. I find God listening to Oyedepo TD jakes Paul A Joseph Prince. It works.

I have one more Paul Adefarasin story and I’ll tell you tomorrow evening. The it’s back to regular scheduled twitter programming. Arsenal is crap!!!
