THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS
Episode 60
I knelt down on the floor as the worship section continued. Honestly I was in tears. I was just crying profusely. How could I call upon God in a spiritual battle and he failed me?
How could I declare his word to the enemy and I was disgraced?
Funny enough, I asked Ella and Susan. They told me that maybe it was not yet time for Romeo to be set free. I don't understand that trash. If God wasn't ready to set Romeo free why would he show me that revelation?
No! God doesn't do anything without a specific reason. He always has something in mind that drives him into taking certain actions. Imagine Romeo and I finishing a discussion about freedom from sexual immorality and suddenly God shows me step one. I mean the lady said that if I don't defeat her, all what I taught Romeo is useless.
Meaning, for Romeo to be free, I must do what it takes to defeat her. But how? Does it mean that there are demons so powerful that I would never have the ability to command?
Susan said that maybe God only showed me so we could intensify our prayers.
"I don't have a problem with the fact that we need to pray more. I have a problem with the fact that I commanded that spirit and it refused to go away. It's not supposed to be so. What is the cause?" I asked.
"I don't know, but the only thing that usually makes evil spirits stubborn to the children of God is sin. So if the demon refused to obey you, that means you committed sin," Susan answered.
"Susan, I'm not claiming holiness ooo, but I have retentive memory. If I did something that I knew was against God's word, my conscience would have reminded me by now. And the more I keep telling God to remind me of any sin that could be responsible for it, he keeps giving me a voiceless response that it has nothing to do with sin."
"Wow! Then let's go for the prayers. And keep asking him for the answers. I'm sure he'll definitely give you the answers you seek," Ella said.
I wasn't in the prayer meeting at all. My heart was seriously heavy. Who would answer this question on my mind?
"Daddy please tell me where I missed it. Is it sin? No it can't be sin. Is it prayerlessness? No, that's not the answer.
Daddy please show me the way!"
I raised my head up and looked beside me. My eyes met my bible. I kept looking at it, when suddenly I don't know what happened or where it came from. The windows were opened but I don't believe it was ordinary.
Suddenly I felt a wind blow across the room and pushed open the pages of my bible.
"Haaaa! Daddy I catch you! This one is your handwork!" I said smiling.
I could hear the Holy Ghost laughing within me.
"Daddy why have you been silent on me ever since?"
"I WAS NEVER SILENT ON YOU. I HAVE BEEN SPEAKING, BUT YOU WERE TOO WORRIED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE INNER VOICE."
"I'm sorry sir! I have never experienced something like that before."
"AND NOW! I WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO BEAT THAT DEMON. ARE YOU READY?"
I picked up my bible, maintaining the passage that was opened by the wind.
"You know I'm always your student."
"GOOD, SO READ WHAT WE HAVE THERE. START FROM VERSE 14."
"Matthew 17:14. And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
Verse 15. Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
Verse 16. And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
Verse 17. Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Verse 18. And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
Verse 19. Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
Verse 20. And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Verse 21. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
Jesus is Lord!" I screamed within me.
"CAN YOU SEE WHY YOU DIDN'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO SEND THAT DEMON PACKING?"
"Wow! Fasting and prayers!"
"YES! SO THERE WAS NO WAY YOU COULD WIN IN THAT REVELATION YOU HAD TO COME BACK AND FORTIFY YOURSELF."
I was grateful to God that I had found the answers. I was sad that the answer was too costly. How do I go about it. I can't remember the last time I fasted.
The highest fasting I have ever done in my life was from 6 to 8am in the morning. And why did I fast? Because I almost failed in my Junior WAEC. I wrote very poorly that I knew very well that it would only take the hand of God for me to cross into SS1
So I fasted and cried to God for help and that was how I was able to scale through and pass the subject. It was God that saved me from repeating JSS 3. That was the last time I fasted.
I hate fasting with passion. If I have not eaten in the morning, I would feel like I'm going to fall down and die any minute. Now that I was so passionate about casting out the devil, I had to pay the huge price.
Mummy punished us with fasting yesterday. We were all forced to come here and pray till God did a work in our spirit. It was one of the longest fasting I had ever did. We had been in this place with mummy till 1pm in the afternoon.
I almost felt like fainting. I was just begging for mercy in my heart. I was stylishly telling God to allow Mummy to stop the prayers. Somehow we ended up praying for 5 hours. It looked like a dream to me. I struggled till at a point, God took over. I ended up getting lost in the prayers.
But when the prayers ended, I felt like falling down and die. I was so exhausted and breathless. All my body was sweating. I was just thanking God as we drank tea and ate bread that afternoon.
I was just grateful to God for everything. For helping me to pray with an empty stomach and a tired body. It wasn't easy for me, but I would love to call myself a survivor.
Now, was God saying in order to free Romeo, I had to fast again? No, Romeo would do his fasting ooo. Me I cannot be fasting for another person. I have not finished fasting for myself, it's another person I will be fasting for. Where do I have that kind of strength?
I will call Romeo when the day breaks and share the revelation with him. Then I will tell him to go and fast. At least let him pray and confront the devil himself. That would also be a way for him to grow up spiritually.
Afterall I'm not the one tied up, he's the one. So why should I be the one fasting?
"JULIET SO WHEN ARE YOU OBSERVING THE FASTING?" Daddy asked.
I was confused.
"I don't get you sir! Am I supposed to be the one fasting or the one who was tied up?"
"YOU'RE THE ONE GOING THERE TO RESCUE HIM. SO IT'S GOOD YOU FORTIFY YOURSELF."
"But I'm not the one tied na. Why should I be the one fasting because of him. Is it me that told him to go and be watching pornography? Something that I wasn't there when it started, I will be the one to suffer pain."
"IS HE YOUR FRIEND?"
"Yes but....."
"JOHN 15:13. GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS."
"Oh God! Please! Don't do this to me! I can't!"
"JULIET! ARE YOU NO LONGER A SOLDIER?"
"I am but, I wasn't the on who caused this war. Romeo started it, he should fight for himself."
"I'M NOT SAYING HE WILL NOT FIGHT BATTLES, BUT HE NEEDS YOUR HELP. BOTH OF YOU CAN FAST TOGETHER. BESIDES, FASTING MAKES YOU MORE STRONGER. DON'T YOU WANT TO CARRY MY POWER?"
"Yes!" I said in a choked up voice.
"THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXERCISE THAT POWER THAT YOU CARRY. FASTING WILL HELP ACTIVATE YOUR SPIRITUAL ENERGY AND POWER. DON'T WORRY YOU'RE GOING TO FALL IN LOVE WITH FASTING.
BECAUSE I'LL MAKE YOU FAST TILL I'LL BE THE ONE BEGGING YOU TO STOP!"
"Haaaa!"
"YES OOOO! ITS A PROPHECY!"
"Daddy! I know myself very well! This Juliet you're talking about fasting like this na chop chop baby girl oooo. She likes food very well. So how are you going to turn me into a person that you will beg to stop fasting?"
"NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! BUT ARE YOU READY TO OBEY ME OR YOU WANT ANOTHER KNIFE IN YOUR STOMACH BEFORE YOU OBEY? I'VE DISCOVERED YOU LOVE ME GOING HARD ON YOU AND I'M READY TO ADAPT TO YOUR PATTERN OF TRAINING.
NORMALLY I SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU TILL WHEN YOU ARE READY TO OBEY ME. BUT YOUR DAD KEEPS DISTURBING ME WITH HIS USUAL PRAYERS NOT TO LET GO OF YOU.
WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WASTE IN YOUR DESTINY CALENDAR. YOU HAVE WASTED ENOUGH TIME. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE CASTING OUT DEVILS AT THE AGE OF 14. BUT YOU'RE NOW 16 AND WE'RE DISCUSSING ON CASTING YOUR FIRST DEVIL.
SOMETHING THAT SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN A NORMAL THING TO YOU BY NOW. WE HAVE NOT STARTED. AND YOU WANT TO WASTE MY TIME. I DON'T HAVE EXTRA TIME, WE ARE ALREADY BEHIND CALENDAR.
SHOULD WE GO THE EASY WAY OR THE HARD WAY?"
I exhaled. I was sad and happy at the same time. Why? I was sad God was not going to take my misbehavior for granted. I was happy he desperately wanted to fill me with his power.
"Daddy, aren't you the one who will give me the grace to do what you want me to do?"
"EXACTLY!"
"So why am I struggling with you?"
"BECAUSE YOU'RE SCARED OF PAIN."
"I'm not! Pain is nonsense! I was only being selfish! Fulfilling my destiny is a sacrifice. To pour out my life so others can be blessed. Pain cannot stop me.
I have felt the worst kind of pain the day I was beaten mercilessly by those lesbians. So I'm done with being afraid of pain. I'm ready to go Lord! All you have to do is to give the command!'
"Everyone listen!" Susan called our attention.
"The Holy Ghost just told me to announce to us that we would be fasting today till 6pm in the evening."
I smiled.
"Daddy, I can see your handwork ooo!" I said grinning.
I could hear him laughing within me.
"Let's hold hands together as we round up the prayers!" Susan called.
We held hands together and rounded up the prayers.
Soon they both sat down and waited for me to share the word with them.
I smiled as I took my bible and stood before them.
"I have a message that appears very strange. The title of my message is DELILAH!"
They looked at themselves and then at me, with shock written on their faces.
To be continued....
Every Christian is supposed to fast at least once in a week. I'm not talking about church fasting, the one your church conducts. I mean personal fasting for your own spiritual life. Fasting is a must for every believer.
Many of you think fasting will kill you or make you sick. Personally, I've discovered it makes you more healthy.
You can also decide for yourself. Will you want God to take you the easy way or would you prefer it the hard way?
Would you surrender willingly or from the belly of a whale.
Fulfilling Destiny is sacrifice. To fulfill destiny will cost you so much. But are you willing to pay it?
So who's looking forward to the message 'DELILAH'
