His mother told him all he needed to know about his future at the age of 10!
His mother sat him down on his birthday and explained to him why he couldn’t have a birthday party like other people in their estate!
They were living in the staff quarters of a rich man for whom his
Father worked as a gardener
His mother also worked for the same man as a laundry keeper and cleaner!
They were surrounded by plenty but they were poor!
The other families threw elaborate parties for their 10 year olds but they couldn’t afford to share some biscuits and drinks!
Things were very tight!
But his mother had found a solution to their poverty!
According to his mother, they suffered so much as a family at one point that his father had to go to the village to consult the wise folks who helps to align the path of mortals with wealth and favor
The wise ones told his father that the star of the family is already set for a big break but it will depend on their first child!
It will be through the first child that the family will breakthrough!
The only warning they have to heed was simple!
That first child must marry one
Of the priestesses of the groove! If he doesn’t, money and wealth will always be a stranger to them!
Wow!
His father returned home with the news and they decided to prepare him for th future foretold!
That same month, his father took him to the village for the first time! His
Father wanted him to become familiar with the priestesses and their way of life!
Since he was going to marry one of them, nothing should be left to chance
As they travelled on and on, his father filled his heart with mesmerizing tales of how these priestesses were a gift of god
to only a few people whose life God wants to bless!
He was very young and had no option but to believe his father!
He was also very bright and he gained admission into the University to study engineering at the age of sixteen!
The signs were there from his childhood that he was
Going to be very successful in life!
He was exceptionally brilliant and was on a government scholarship from primary school!
As he grew, he saw his parents fixation of the prophecy and warnings of the village wise folks for what it was!
A sham!
He didn’t need any priestess to be
Successful!
He was already set on a path of success!
His parents couldn’t stop reminding him of his obligation and commitment to marry a grove priestess!
He didn’t have the boldness to tell his parents off even after he had come to realize it was all a sham!
He just played along
He graduated and was retained as an assistant lecturer while he pursued his Masters degree!
He met a lady and fell in love
But he wouldn’t dare tell his parents the truth!
He couldn’t even tell them he got a job
He knew they were itching to bring him a fortune priestess as wife!
The lady he met was a believer
She was also a Masters degree student
They met during a field trip for their project
She was his wife!
He knew this as soon as he saw her
It was as if his heart sought her out
And without saying so much, he noticed that she gravitated towards him
They were meant to be together!
He wanted his parents to accept her
His parents had suffered too much in life not to enjoy the blessings of Hod upon his life
It the seed that had been planted in them by the wise folks was such a stronghold!
He needed God to pull it down somehow!
He discussed the issue with the lady!
He told her everything
He wanted her to pray!
That same week, the grove people sent a message to his father
They said they could see that his son has made it and was ready to marry but is making moves to break the oath they swore to keep!
His father sent for him!
When he got home, he found one of the priestesses!
His father had taken one into the house for him
His father told him they would take care of the priestess
All he had to do was sleep with her and consumate the affair!
His father begged and pleaded all
Day!
“You have six younger ones, you are the light that was promised! These people helped nurture you! The education you sailed through smoothly was as a result of their sacrifices and prayers!
You cannot walk away from this at this moment!
Your light will be snuffed
You will die
He had no room to maneuver
His parents were wrong
He knew this
But they had too much emotion invested in the whole issue
Their ignorance was also a strong motivation
They were attributing his success to some illiterates who had no idea what he did to become successful!
He was at
A cross road!
With every passing minute, the only option he seemed to have was to sleep with the priestess and leave
If he did that, he would make a bad situation worse!
It would be temporary joy for his parents but permanent sadness for him
He called his girlfriend and explained
His girlfriend sent him the phone number of the brother in Jeans and T-shirt
He sent the brother in Jeans and T-shirt a lengthy message
The Brother in Jeans and T-shirt called him!
They talked
The Brother in Jeans and T-shirt was in Kwara state for a ministration
He was in the
South-south part of the country!
The brother in Jeans and T-shirt led him to Christ over the phone!
After he gave his life to Christ, the brother in Jeans and T-shirt prayed with him
He got fille with the Holy Spirit!
He spoke in the Holy Ghost for a long time!
The the brother in
Jeans and T-shirt told him to get out of his room, go to the priestess and hug her in a very friendly and loving manner!
Then hold her hands and tell her you will like to pray with her so that your home will start off on a good ground!
Hold her hands and pray in tongues!
What!
He did it!
His parents and the priestess were watching television in the sitting room, he walked up to them and told them he would like to pray with the priestess!
They switched off the television set
He held her hands and started praying in tongues!
The priestess screamed...
He didn’t let go of the hand!
The priestess started manifesting
He still held on to her hand
His parents were watching the drama, the priestess started barking like a dog, struggling to be free!
He held on to her!
It lasted for about thirty minutes!
When he finally released the
Priestess, she fell backwards and was still for a long time
After about ten minutes, she opened her eyes, sat up and propped herself to her feet!
She walked into the room, carried her bag and left without a word!
His parents just sat there, watching silently as the frame unfolded
The wise folks didn’t send any message to his parents again!
He was free!
He finished his masters and brought home his intended!
They got married in 2018
They both departed for UK where he was offered a scholarship for his Ph.D in 2018!
In July 2019, she delivered a baby girl
Ps: Anyone who has seen your glorious destiny and is working hard to reap from it, take advantage of it at your detriment, truncate it or destroy it will be stopped in their tracks just as the angel of the Lord stopped Balaam!
Pray always in the Holy Ghost, give no room to fear!
