Getting a husband was a battle!
It was as if all the men in the world, both married and single, even the widowers, made a secret pact to keep away from her
She didn't know what she had to do to get a husband
She had worked on herself
She was willing and ready
She was a medical doctor
She was fair in complexion, carried herself with dignity and she was beautiful!
She had always kept an open door in her communication with men
She didn't give any mixed signals
She was not desperate
She did not pretend either
She didn't know why
She convinced herself her time would come
She cried herself to sleep on many nights
Eventually she was approached by one of her patients
A forty year old married woman
She couldn't have guessed where the conversation would lead to
"My husband has decided to marry a second wife, I am happy with the decision and i have prayed about it I have also discussed it with him!
He likes you and had given me the go ahead to discuss the possibilities with you
Will you marry us?
Be my second?
The woman's husband was a well to do businessman
He was into cement distributorship
He had always been very polite and courteous towards her
He didn't give her any hint
She told the woman she would think about it
The next morning, the woman's husband
Of course, he was striking while the iron was still hot
They all belonged to a religion which allowed him to marry many wives and also empowered her to be his second wife
It was not a question of morality
It was a question of choice
She was lonely
She convinced herself
She didn't have any reason to hope for less than the best
The ceremony was elegant and quiet
Her "senior wife" was extremely supportive and acted as an elder sister
She was marrying into a family of six
Her senior wife already had four children!
She was apprehensive and felt like an outsider in the marriage
Not because of anything her husband or the senior wife did but because she couldn't just settle down to the fact that he equally belonged to her after they got married
She had someone saying "Hello"
She finally belonged!
She started to settle into the marriage!
Her husband was a gentle and very caring man
He did everything she desired, even in bed
He was very sensitive to her needs
Her "senior wife" came to the hospital the day after she delivered and gave her a popular locally made plantain chip
"Eat this at 1AM tonight! Eat it now while you are still bleeding from the birth!
You now know the pain of motherhood, you are now ready
She was born and bred in Abeokuta
They all still live in Abeokuta
She was not a novice
She knew what was being insinuated!
She told her senior wife she would do as instructed!
She was cordial.
Senior wife left!
She slept like a baby
Senior wife retuned the next morning
"Why didn't you eat the chips?" Senior wife asked
"I ate it" She replied!
Senior wife said "You will never have another child until you do my bidding"
She never got pregnant again
She wanted more children and tried everything medically and traditionally that she could to get more children
She was told to by the herbalists to mend fences with the person she offended!
Her husband had no clue what was going on
She said "You seemed to be comfortable with this one lamp
What if I snuff out it's light?
What will you do then?
Poor you
She had goosebumps all over her body
She rushed to her son's room
He was alive
She couldn't even imagine losing her son
She needed help and fast
She reached out to @GbengaWemimo via DM
I want to meet the Brother in Jeans and T-shirt
I need help!
They spoke!
He led her to Christ
He told her to get a Bible and read the book of John!
They read the book of John
He told her she was no longer born of flesh and blood!
She had become a child of God!
She can no longer be afflicted
Her son was safe!
Wow!
She got pregnant that month!
When the result of the scan showed that she was going to have twins
The senior wife went to their husband and said "she has been cheating! This is not your baby! There are no twins in your bloodline!
The accusations poured like rain
It was war
They did paternity test
The babies belonged to her husband
Senior wife said "She had converted to Christianity, she now prays the Christian way"
Her husband asked if it was true.
She told her husband it was how she was able to conceive after many unfruitful efforts
Senior wife said she cannot live in the same house with a Christian!
Their husband said the senior wife was free to do whatever she wanted but the house belonged to him and he will like to keep his family under one roof
Senior wife left the house
Fiery darts were thrown at them but they had no effect!
Senior wife's children started drawing close to her
Three of the senior wife's children and her husband gave their lives to Christ
Glory!
The divorce became final on 13th June 2019
Light was separated from darkness!
Ps: If you are suffering from suspected demonic activity and you are a believer
Don't buy the lie of the devil that you need to add something to Jesus!
Jesus is enough!
