How Jesus closed my hand as I was mocking Paul Adefarasin-

I have written a few stories of how when I was down at various points listening to Oyedepo , Adefarasin doors for me. This is slightly different but it’s 100% true.

Of all the things that have happened to me as various times. This touched me the most because it taught me a lesson about how prayers are really answered. I’ve been lost and helped , suicidal and helped , in debt after losing N140million and slowly being helped out ...

To everyone whose msg’d me , saying they have been lifted , blessed or renewed their hope in God. I’m happy for you. To those in my DM’s still wondering if God loves them enough to help them, in the midst of your crushing is new wine. So when you tell your story it helps someone

As I stated, I’m far from religious. I sit at the back in Church. Leave early sometimes except I feel guilty or the pastor says “ nobody should leave and I get scared 😂. I’m not starting a ministry , I’m not a church worker. I don’t know Pst Paul or Oyedepo. I have met them once

Met them once each for about 2mins each just to say hi in the midst of many people. They don’t know me or probably won’t remember. I have no relationship with them. I’ve sowed seeds in their churches as anyone would. So I’m not promoting anyone. I’m telling my personal truth.

I party a lot. A whole lot to be honest. Maybe that’s why I go to church late because I’m coming out from one club or the other on Saturday nights. But however i know Jesus & he is kind & deeply loving & a solid helper in my troubles. I’ll change soon.

So a background to this story.I hate fake pastors. It irritates my soul. There so many fake pastors in Nigeria & across the world.Jesus even said it. Fake prophets deceiving the population. Tares among wheat. So I limit myself to a few I trust.And thus what happened with Pst Paul

A few years ago I couldn’t close my right palm/hand. The bone in my little finger hurt so much it was ridiculous. I couldn’t grip a steering. Couldn’t grip when I was shaking a hand. Couldn’t make a fist. At first it was a minor pain I just ignored. Then ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

It grew worse. It was so bad I would wake up in tears. I woke up in intense pain for almost 2 1/2 years. Every single day. This sounds mild because it’s just a finger but you don’t get it. For a fully bearded dude to 😢 in the morning. Smh. I was suffering.

So one day I escort friend to a Dr in Dolphin Estate and I’m looking at those medical explanatory charts on the wall. I see my symptoms and it says Arthritis. 😧. I’m too young to have arthritis. This is a joke. Anyway I live with this pain for 2 + years.

So one Wednesday my bro @Abasiama Wildfusion digitals boss picks me up from work and we are deciding where to go chill after work. Then he suggests let’s go to midweek service we haven’t been to church in a while. So I agree, we get there as usually sit last row so we can get out

Some other Pastor is preaching. Can’t remember what he said. Service is over. Everyone’s about to bounce. Pst Paul just walks in & takes the 🎤.Sigh 😏. Another 3 hrs. I need to leave. I’m tired. He starts talking and I’m getting upset.

He is making ambiguous prophetic statements like - “ there’s someone here you will receive a phone call before the week runs out😩. Or Someone has a headache you’re healed 😫 or Someone here is chasing a contract you will get it this week 😫. Smh so ambiguous & charlatan sounding

So in my mind I’m mocking him.True story, plenty shame. Yeah nicca who here doesn’t have a headache. Yeah nicca who here isn’t waiting for a call. Yeah nicca who here isn’t chasing a contract. Hiss! Fraud prophecies. So I turn to Abas and I say bro let’s bounce abeg. As I stand.

As I stand. He goes quiet for a second. I’m about to walk out. Then he says there’s someone here. You haven’t been able to close your hand for 2 years.😦. I stop. Freeze. Reverse.😧. Then he says. It’s this finger and points to his own little finger. You haven’t closed your hand

You haven’t closed your hand in 2 years. Listen to this. He said “ Jesus said I should tell you to close your hand right now.😧. I turn to Abas Idaresit. Man Daz me 😵. I sit down first. Look at my hand & I close it for the very first time in almost 3 years. Totally close it.

At this point I’m absolutely shook. Then he says if you’re the one come out now. I usually don’t like the front of the church for obvious reasons but this time I went out & I had to say it. I doubt he remembers. See from that day till today. I have not felt pain. I’m perfect.

The point of this story is Jesus healed me even though i was mocking the Pastor. Why he did it I don’t know. But he absolutely took away the pain. But I had to be in a place to hear the Pastor say it. Maybe that’s what you need to do. Hear someone.

I learnt something that day. Your prayers aren’t answered because you love Jesus. Your prayers are answered because Jesus loves you. If you think you need to love Jesus first that’s self righteous. It’s not because you’re good he hears you. It’s because he is good he hears you.

I heard it and I believed it and my hand closed. I could have ignored it. If you can take the time to hear someone , your faith will build and you’ll get an answer. All you need is a line. Life is like a beach and God has life guards. When you’re drowning they’ll drop you a line

Hold onto the line you’re dropped and it will pull you to dry land. Ignore the waves and focus on the line you were dropped. If you hold onto that line and believe it you will be saved from killing yourself.

When Jesus was arrested he said “Do you think I can’t call my Father & ask for 12 legion angels to fight ? Why would Jesus need 12 legion angels to fight a rag tag Roman army when only one angel will kill all of them? Do you know why ?

Because he wasn’t just being arrested by a Roman army and Judas. He was really being arrested by a 12 legion demonic invisible army that only he could see. That’s why he mentioned he could also get 12 legion angels. Do you think he suffered all of that because you love him ? 😔

Nope. You don’t love him enough. He suffered that because he loves you. So what makes you think you need to be clean before he hears you ? . All you need is the right word from the right life guard. Please don’t kill yourself. I’ve been lost. I’m struggling. But he always comes

Don’t kill yourself before your Jesus rises for you. If Judas Iscariot hadn’t killed himself. Jesus in mercy would have turned him into the greatest human story. But he committed suicide two days too early. Just wait. Don’t lose your story.

So in closing. I failed many times. I succeeded. I lost millions. Made millions. Lost it again sef. I was and slowly came out of debt. Was suicidal. Was low. Weak. But everytime I heard a word I got a miracle.

Don’t let woke diaspora twitter make you lose your faith in Jesus & preachers. They are jokers.They have better government but yet they are addicted therapists & medication to save them from suicide, drugs, debt and depression. They pray their therapists words. You go to church.

Bishop Oyedepo’s words have a deep fire that moves obstacles for me. I learnt to repeat, pray & believe when I couldn’t pray for myself. Pst Paul , Joseph Prince , TD jakes , Hillsong Music & my mother are my life guards. May God keep you. Go to church. Don’t kill yourself ☺️

And mark this new story I tell it soon. I’m believing for it and I trust God.
