Chereads / SINS ON THE ALTAR / Chapter 11 - DEMON IN THE CUPBOARD

Chapter 11 - DEMON IN THE CUPBOARD

I recounted briefly the encounters I had with the Lord and a smile beamed on my face.

I stood up, dusted my body and went for my Bible which lay few meters ahead of me soaked in the rain.

"This is for my altar." I muttered words to myself and waited until the sun had waved the earth and gone to sleep, then i started descending down the mountain.

My body was shaking and trembling with the combination of stress and the spiritual energy which I had received from the mountain.

I dreamt of home and wished I had someone who could cater for my needs upon arriving.

I remembered I had my phone on me, of which I had totally lay off and forgotten.

"What must have become of it now?" I questioned myself summoning strength as I reached out my hand into my jacket and pulled it out.

The machine was soaked with water and dripping.

I looked away and plugged it back into my pocket.

What I had received was worth giving up anything for.

I wished the phone was on, so I could call pastor Donald if he could come pick me. I shook my head and matched on as the soldier of the Lord I was.

"Ah papa! papa!!" I heard pastor Donald's voice called out through the window of his car.

"Pastor Donald! How on earth does he know that I'm here?" I questioned my heart.

He pulled out and beckoned on me to come in hurriedly seeing the condition I was in.

"Pastor Donald, how do you know I'm here or you were heading somewhere?" my curiosity began searching for an answer.

"My papa! This God is indeed MIGHTY. I was at home when the Holy spirit spoke to me and asked me to come pick you. I wanted to be sure and he spoke again. For the third time I could not resist. Thank God I am here papa. We have been searching for you for the past four days now"

"Four days? " I asked shocked

"Yes papa!" he responded

"Ah ah Pastor Donald. I barely went to the mountain yesterday? How come I was searched for, for four days?" I asked again confused.

"Papa it has been four days now plus the Eternal Revival meeting's day marking five." he answered.

"You mean it has been four days since after the meeting?"

"Yes papa!" he affirmed

"oh Jesus Christ of Nazareth! so I had been praying on the mountain for the past five days and it seems as just a night! Jesus Christ!!"

I was totally amazed. never had I experience such in my walk with the Lord before.

Pastor Donald was shocked as well. None the less he became excited knowing that I had contacted a new dimension of grace by such a time spent in God's presence under divine enablement.

We spoke about the revival meeting and I was extremely happy when he told me of all the Mighty things God did at the meeting.

Soon we we arrived home and he parked at the entrance of my house.

"Papa I would love to come in and help you take care of one or two things before I leave for my house" Pastor Donald pleaded.

if it were before I would have ordered him around to do much for me before leaving but this time around the order had changed.

"No, no, no! Donald, you have a family. This is already 8:49pm. please go back home to your family. We shall see in the office tomorrow. We both have a lot to discuss and to do tomorrow" I said calmly.

"Yes papa! Kai papa, a lot has changed o. You are totally renewed, I can see it all over you." He said teasing and left

back to his house jubilantly.

When he left and I turned at the entrance door, I saw that it was locked within.

"Oh my God!!" I shouted loudly twisting my face.

"Pull out the woods!!!" This that I heard on the mountain from Lucifer and his demons on the mountain flashed quickly into my head and I stepped down immediately to run out of the gate.

You could guess who was in my house. None had the key to my house other than Betty.

Before we became closely attached in the relationship, she would come to my house at her leisure and tidy up the place. This was how she gained possession of my house key.

Hearing me shout from within, she rushed out and caught me running towards the gate about sneaking to go spend the night at my friend's place.

It wasn't as if I had only one room in my house. There were two rooms and a parlor but I couldn't be anywhere close to Betty without something happening in-between us.

"My love!" She called out running out with a bom short and bra on her body.

"My love what happened? I heard you shout and where are you going?" she came close, about holding my hand.

"I am not attending to you until you go in there and put on something on your body!" I demanded with sternness.

"Okay love, bu, bu,.."

"No but but! do what I ask you to do!" I yelled at her for the first time in our relationship.

She felt hurt and went inside. I became emotional and sorry for my actions and concluded I was going to appeal and make things up for being too harsh on her. I didn't know that it was the devil cooking tea for me.

I entered the house and saw her wrapped in her wrapper sitting on the cushion with a moody face.

"Betty I am sorry." I went over to her and apologized.

The memories of my awesome experience on the mountain began to fade and replaced with those of Betty.

She shrugged and turned to the other corner. The affiliation I had for her already pulled me close to her and we magneted. I wrapped my arms around her again to apologise and she smiled.

"You did not even call me baby. Why did you call me by my name?"

"Okay baby, I'm sorry. she smiled and lifted her hand over to my head and began to cares my hair.

We started looking into our eyes as the attachment grew deeply.

Betty couldn't hold it any longer. She trashed the wrapper on her body and brought her lips closer about to kiss me. This kiss would be deep and passionate because it could be seen in her eyes that she was hungry

I pulled close like a robot and held myself. Her lips were almost closing in on me when I shouted; "Betty stop it."

"Why baby? what happen? I miss you my love." she said romantically to weaken me.

"No, no, no, no!" I said and flung her hand, then stood up from the cushion and went into the shower room.
