THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS
Episode 68
I stood up and closed my bible. Today was my first day in Broadway academy. I had just completed my suspension. I can't wait to get back to that place and burn it to the ground. I can't imagine the looks on the faces of everyone. What are they going to think about me now?
I was really curious and a pinch of anxiety gripped me. I remembered how the teacher brought me out to meet the principal. It was all deception. Could that mean that the principal, the teachers and Angela were all working together?
Haaaa! How do I survive in that kind of environment? I don't really need God's grace. How so I go back to a school that is nothing but the devil's den of thieves. Lord help me!
I had just completed my quiet time and was about to start preparing for school. I was just stylishly waiting for the family devotion.
Soon, it was time. I stood up and took my bible with me. We all sat down in the sitting room. Mummy and Daddy sat in front of us and appointed duties to everyone. I was told to lead the praise and worship, which I did joyfully.
I was seriously waiting for the word. I was more than ready to hear what God had to say.
Mummy told us to close our eyes and talk to God as he would give us his word.
I began to pray immediately, telling him to speak to me directly.
"Get your bibles and open to the book of Isaiah 39:1."
I made sure I was the first to open it and read.
"At that time Merodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.
Verse 2. And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.
Verse 3. Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.
Verse 4. Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
Verse 5. Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:
Verse 6. Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.
Verse 7. And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
Verse 8. Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days."
"There was something wrong that led to that judgement unleashed on Hezekiah. He never shared God's word or talked about Jesus to those people. All he did was to flaunt his God given wealth, knowledge, intelligence and gold.
God was expecting him to share the goodnews of how he was miraculously healed, but he resisted the spirit of do what was on his mind alone.
Sometimes you may feel, this people do not look hungry to hear from God. Sometimes you may feel they are going to laugh at me for having nothing to say than to preach a sermon. Yes! But that is what God wants.
Peter and John told the religious leaders that how can they stop telling people about the things that we have withnessed? They saw it as a necessity to speak about Jesus to a dying world.
Whoever would hear let him hear and whoever would not take it serious is digging his own grave. That's what God wants us to do in our respective schools. Don't tell yourself that I can't share God's word. I'm shy, I'm scared, I'm ashamed of the gospel.
Jesus said whoever is ashamed of me and of the gospel, I will also be ashamed of him the very day he appears before me in heaven. So make sure you talk to at least 5 people about Jesus today. You don't know the power in planting seeds in the minds of the listener."
I knew God had spoken. This was a message from God to me. But haaaa! Na wetin I fear most na him God come dey talk. This preaching of a thing. Na wa ooo. How do I handle this issue?
I can't go to Broadway academy and begin to disobey God again oooo. Never! If then I would disobey God, then it is better I don't go!"
"You will do no such thing!" Mummy said.
"Ma?" I replied.
She turned to look at me.
"What?" She asked.
Everyone looked at me as if I was a stranger in Israel.
"I thought you were talking to me?" I asked.
"No I'm still preaching!" She replied and continued.
"As I was saying before Juliet interrupted. I said, some of you after hearing this message will still go ahead to resist the Holy Ghost when the opportunity to preach is before you. I said you will do no such thing! I'm going to make sure you all report to me today about the 5 persons you shared the word with today.
Is that okay?"
"Chai!" I said under my breath.
"Yes ma!" We all chorused.
"Now let's thank God for his word."
That was how we finished the family devotion, greeted the mummy and Daddy of the house, greeted ourselves and left to prepare for school.
I quickly took my bath and got ready. I put on my ironed uniform and took my back pack.
"Lord! I'm entering that territory of darkness again. Go with me! Cause me to be a burning and a shining light to all the people that are sitting in darkness. May they see the light of Jesus and through it be drawn to your wonderous cross. Thank you father for answering my prayers, for in Jesus name I pray. Amen!"
"Hmmmmm! Territory of darkness!" Susan said and chuckled.
"Yes ooo! But God will disgrace my enemies in Jesus name!"
"Amen! Hope you carried your sword with you? That one you used to embarrass Lucifera the other day?"
"Who is Lucifera?"
"That madam Lucifer you told us that you wanted to remove her head?"
"Oh! Na wa ooo! See name wey you don give her!" I said admist laughter.
"Name na name! So hope you're carrying the sword with you?"
"Well!"
"What is well?"
"I mean the demons in Broadway academy are too small to use sword on. So I said let me carry one small knife for them!"
We both burst into laughter.
"Jesus! Juliet! This your mouth Ehn! I just pray you use it well ooo! You can put yourself in trouble with this your mouth! We only have sword of the spirit in the bible ooo. We don't have small knife of the spirit. We only have sword of the spirit. So please carry your sword ooo! Biko!"
"Okay! Let me carry catapult then!"
"No! Carry sword!" She said and we both burst into laughter.
"Yes ma! I hear you!" I said and rushed out of the house.
I took all what I needed and left the gates. It was as if Romeo came to wait for me at the gate. Immediately I stepped out, he appeared.
"Good morning my blood sister!"
I turned shocked at who was referring to me as blood sister and saw him. As smile appeared on my face.
"Good morning my blood Romeo!"
"Welcome back to school he said as we got side by side and walked.
"Thanks! But when did I become your blood sister?"
"Haaaa! The sacrifices you have paid on my behalf just to see me progress spiritually is more than a friend. And since everyone is saying friendship between the opposite gender can result to something romantic. I decided to train my mind to see you as my blood sister. As someone related to me by blood.
So whenever my mind wants to corrupt me to think about you as someone I'm in a romantic relationship with. I use that recognition to shut down that evil imagination and call myself to order.
I'm sorry if it sounds embarrassing. It's so bad that I sometimes find myself thinking about you in a negative way. But I always do my best to fight those thoughts and cast them away. I just don't! I don't know why I'm saying this sef. I'm not supposed to say something like this!"
I giggled and gave him a punch on his arm.
"Romeo! It's absolutely fine!"
"Haaaa! You mean me having negative thoughts about you is fine?"
"No! I mean! I'm not going to see you as an evil person for sharing all this with me. And about the evil thoughts, remember what I taught you about them?"
"Yes!"
"Can you control what comes to your mind?"
"No!"
"But can you allow them to stay or send them away?"
"Yes I can! That's what I always do whenever the thought comes. I cast them away and remind myself that we are related by blood! We carry the DNA of Jesus and we are one family. Brother and sister of the same Father."
"That's wonderful! I'm so proud of you!" I said smiling.
"The fact that evil thoughts come to your mind doesn't make you a sinner. Infact, it shows you're a human being. Only a spirit can have total control of what comes to his mind.
So the fact that you have evil thoughts about a person doesn't make you a sinner. It's when you allow the thought to stay in your mind and control your actions. That's when that thought becomes a sin. Remember, casting down every imagination and every high thing that exalts itself above the knowledge of God."
"And bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of God," he completed the scripture.
I gave him a reassuring smile.
"And I hope you know what you did is in the bible?"
"What did I do?"
"Calling me your blood sister. I mean seeing me as someone who came from the same Father like you. It's one of the things Apostle Paul taught Timothy when fellowship sisters were crowding him. Timothy was such a handsome and anointed young guy. Girls found him so attractive, especially the sisters in church. He started struggling with his thoughts. He began to find himself thinking about them in a negative way.
So he went to report to his mentor. Daddy I don't understand what is going on. I find myself thinking about girls so often. My mind is getting polluted everyday. How do I handle it?
That was where Apostle Paul through the wisdom of the Holy Ghost gave him what I call THE PURITY THINKING PATTERN!"
"Wow!"
"1 Timothy 5:2. The elderly women see them as your mothers; the young ladies, see them as your sisters, with all purity."
"Wow! This is awesome. I can't believe it! I never knew what I was practicing was in the bible already! I'm so glad Timothy was not like most mentees today. They keep secrets from their mentor and suffer in silence. Thank God he opened up to his mentor!"
"We thank God for that!"
We continued the rest of our walk in silence, but being an observant person, I knew something was on Romeo's mind. He was not his cheerful self anymore.
"Is there something you need to tell me?" I quickly asked.
"Yes! I wanted to ask you? Is mentorship an important thing in Christianity?"
"Of course! Why not? If you really want to grow spiritually, you must not joke with mentorship. That's the reason why many people are walking around in circles. Their spiritual lives is just rotating. No tangible progress."
"Who mentored Paul?"
"Paul went to Arabia for 3 years to learn how to pray and studied the word of God there. Then he came back to Peter and spent time under the training of Apostle Peter. That was when he started ministry."
"Yes! And with what you said about Timothy, his mentor was what rescued him from falling into the number one temptation every young minister faces today."
"Exactly!"
"But Juliet! Can I ask you something?"
"Go ahead! I'm all ears!"
"Will you be my mentor?"
