THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS 2
Episode 6
Who else remembered that today is supposed to be Sunday? Yeah! I visited Ope on a Friday and she visited me on Saturday and died that same Saturday and and. And what else? Oh! And came back to life on Sunday morning when mummy came back.
How come nobody realized we're supposed to be in church? Well I guess there was serious fire on the mountain. We just had to ensure the fire was put out. Glory be to God it was.
We started receiving visitors and soon the house was crowded with people. Many members of the church cane to check on us to find out what happened. It was a day of rejoicing as we shared the news of how a dead girl was brought back to life.
I felt bad as Ope's parents took her out of the house. I wanted to even follow her to her place, but was more willing to be around mummy right now. I knew if I had asked for permission, she would allow me. But I don't want to leave her side. I just kept wondering how God could use mummy so mightily. Something we had been praying for over how many hours, someone just walked in and got it done in 5 minutes. Is it even up to 5 minutes? 2 minutes.
Are we not all children of God? Why would one person raise dead bodies and the other one cannot? Why can one heal the sick and the other one cannot? Mummy, you must answer my question oooo!
"Yes Julie angel! I'm here!" Mummy called as she opened the door to my room.
"Haaaaa! How did you know what I was thinking?" I asked, completely shocked.
She smiled and sat beside me on the bed.
"Daddy told you, right?"
"Not exactly! Actually, I knew you had a lot of questions on your mind. So let me say, lucky guess!" She said all smiles.
I smiled back.
"Actually I was just missing you!" She added.
I gave her a funny look.
"Seriously!" She affirmed.
"I missed you too. You're the best mummy I could ever asked for. Thank you so much for saying yes to Jesus!" I said as I put my hands around her waist in a warm embrace.
She was wearing a very light clothing material so I could almost feel her skin on the top she was wearing. Somehow, my hands touched her stomach and I felt the place where the scar on her stomach was.
She sensed it too and looked at me. I looked at her and gave her those questioning eyes.
She shook her head in the negative.
"It's not yet time!"
"When will I be ready for that story?"
"When daddy says it is."
"Hmmmmm! Okay ma!" I replied as an idea flashed through my mind.
I was going to ask mummy Oladimeji or the young woman that came with mummy from the trip. They should be able to help me with that story, since everyone was not willing to tell me.
"But mummy, what would make God wound you? Was it rebellion like me? Or was it a test of faith? Was it a secret that cannot be shared with anyone?"
"Juliet be patient! Remember that meeting you attended where Mummy Oladimeji ministered? Where you were called forward and specific prophecies about your destiny was give to you?"
"Yes ma!"
"You were called a name in that meeting. They called you my successor. Not because I'm going to die and pass on the assignment to you, but because of the bulkiness of assignments on my list, God will give me a duplicate of me. A spiritual offspring that would bear my spirit in a higher dimension. Young and valiant.
And I don't know why he had chosen you and not mummy Oladimeji. She seriously wanted it badly, but daddy said it's you!"
I had to cut in.
"Sorry to interrupt, but can I say God made a mistake?"
I saw the shock those words brought on her face, but I had to say my mind.
"I'm sorry ma, but come to think of it. Can anything good come out of this failure of a daughter? I have failed God over and over again and you're here telling me God wants to use me!
I'm sorry for sounding terrible, but I just have to say my mind. I'm the worst! God should look for someone else."
Mummy was silent for a while. Then she smiled and patted me on the back.
"He doesn't call you because you're capable. He doesn't call the qualified. He calls the incapable, removes the I N from the name and makes them capable for the mission."
I was shocked to the bones. Those were exactly the same words daddy told me earlier today. How was mummy able to tap into the spirit realm and repeat what God told me? Haaa! Is mummy human at all?
One minute she was raising a dead body and the next minute, she was speaking like the ancient diety. Knowing the thoughts and the secrets of men. I have to admit, it looks like mummy tapped into another spiritual height while she was away. The aura around her was so stronger than before.
She's looking so strange to me. Is it just me or is it because I'm just seeing her fro the first time in a long time. But I'm sure of what I'm saying. Mummy has grown in the spirit. But come to think of it, in this spiritual level, as high and mighty as she is, she's still growing? Haaaaaa! What if you give her more years to grow! Haaaaaaa!
Daddy what am I doing with my life?"
I was already weeping just looking at mummy. Tears flowed down my eyes. Mummy was yet to begin her teaching ooo. Jesus! How could she carry power so much?
She has not even spoken much to me. Just looking at me fro a few minutes, I'm already slain in my heart. Haaaaa! God, I can't be less of what you made me! I'm so empty! I'm so powerless! I want you to use me for your glory!
Please daddy!
I went down on my knees before mummy.
"Please ma! Since you sis God can make me capable, please tell him to go ahead. I'm tired of this life of powerlessness. I want to conquer territories for Jesus.
I want to be a vessel fit for the master's use. Mummy, we had been praying for hours just to bring Ope back to life. You walked in and commanded Ope and she came back to life. How were you able to do that?"
"Juliet sit!" She ordered.
I knew she wasn't comfortable with my kneeling down before her, so I quickly sat beside her.
"Now listen to me. The book of Ephesians 3:20. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Notice something about that scripture. We are all children of God right?"
"Yes ma!" I answered.
"But let us put along the road, the blind, the sick, the cripple, the lepers and so much more. You'll pass and nothing will happen.
But when Peter comes and passes that same place you passed and his shadow crosses a sick man. Instantly, he is healed. Immediately, he is delivered."
"Wow!"
"God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, but, it is according to the power that worketh in us.
According to the measure of power we carry. That's why we don't stop! We keep pressing for more. That's why 20 years of spending time with God in the secret place is not a waste.
We keep pressing. Peter has spent time with God so much that he had entered a level in the spirit realm where he walks pass a sick body and his shadow releases healing power to that sick body.
So the problem is not the power of God. Open your bible to Psalms 78. Read verse 40 and 41."
I quickly opened to the passage and read.
"How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert!
Verse 41. Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel."
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Yes ma!"
"Who limited God?"
"The Israelites!"
"No oooo! Wrong answer! Who limited God?"
"The Christians!"
"That's a wrong answer! Who limited God?"
"Me!"
"Yes! You limited him by refusing to grow in grace. Who made God look as if he cannot raise the dead?"
"Me!"
"Who made it look as if God cannot make a man live above sin?"
"Me!"
"Who made it look as if God cannot heal a sick body?"
"Me!"
"Who made it look as if God is powerless?"
"Me!"
"And how did you achieve that?"
"By refusing to take my spiritual life serious!"
"Good! There's a big difference between Peter and the remaining Christians. Are all of them born again? Yes! Are they all baptized in the Holy Ghost? Yes! But God can only do according to the level of power they carry in their spirit.
How much of God's power do you carry?"
I threw myself on the floor and wept. I saw that scripture I had read some days ago clearly.
Romans 2:24. For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
Mr Paul was busy saying all the nonsense he was saying about God until mummy showed up and silenced the mouth of the devil speaking through him.
1 Corinthians 4:20. For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
So it's not all about we preaching about Christ. There's also a part of demonstration of his power. When this part is missing, God is limited.
We have spoken enough, let's show them what we carry. But how can we show them what we carry when we are empty? How can we demonstrate the power of God when we have not paid the price for power? How can we carry the power of God when we are not consistent with our intimacy with the Holy Ghost?
I wept.
Mummy stood and made to leave the room so I can have time to pour myself before God.
I grabbed her feet tearfully.
"Show me the way! Show me what I must do! I cannot be an empty barrel. I want to carry God so much that my generation will never be able to mock him when I show up on the scene. I want to silence the mouth of the enemy. Please tell me what I must do!" I pleaded.
Mummy turned to me and smiled.
"It's not about desiring God's power. Yes, we need to pray for those gifts we earnestly desire. But our number one desire is that I may know him. Some people only know anointing and they are full time fornicator, while ministering to God's people mightily.
Philippians 3:10. That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.
it's first knowing God, before we talk about power.
Remember the bible says that if you claim you know God and live in secret sin, you're a big time liar. It is your knowledge of God first that will transform you and make you a worthy vessel for his power."
"So how can I know God?"
"Ask him to reveal himself to you. If you keep chasing after power, you'll end up a rebellious daughter or minister. You'll only follow some of the instructions God gives you and not all. You'll make so many mistakes and a lot of innocent lives under your spiritual covering will go for it.
You'll discover that your walk with God will never be consistent. Because you have not known God. So you're never going to take him seriously. You'll only fellowship with him when it's convenient for you or occasionally.
Juliet, can you see you have not started?"
To be continued.....
Seek the Lord while he may be found, call upon him while he is near...
For ye shall find me when ye seek me with all your heart.
Only those who are hungry for more of God. Only those who are willing to go deep will kneel down and groan.
We are going to be learning alot in the episodes that follow.
Don't just read this story like a novel. Go and cry before God on your altar.
When God showed me what it means to know him, I almost wept. Because the bible says that we cannot claim we know him and live in sin. It's not possible.
That means you only know about God, you're yet to know him personally.
1 Samuel 3:21. And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
Cry to God to reveal himself to you.
