THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS 2
Episode 19
I entered the house with a broad grin on my face. But immediately I did, I was shocked by the scene that greeted me. Mummy and Daddy were sitting together in the living room, watching cartoon. Mummy's head was comfortably leaning on daddy's shoulder. There were snacks and soft drinks on the stool beside them.
I looked at the cartoon they were watching. It was SpongeBob SquarePants. My favourite cartoon. I wanted to go upstairs, but my legs refused to cooperate with me. Every fiber of my being missed watching cartoon and wanted to have a fill.
"Good afternoon ma! Good afternoon Daddy!"
"Oh Juliet, how are you?" Daddy replied my greeting.
"Juliet see your favourite!" Mummy said as she pointed at the screen.
A smile appeared on my face as it was giving me joy that I wasn't the one who would be watching the TV alone.
I wanted to join them when I suddenly remembered the vision I had when Romeo and I bantered each other.
It was as if a scale fell off my eyes. I stood looking at mummy and daddy who were engrossed in the movie. On a norm, they barely sit down to watch TV and if at all they did, it won't be cartoons. What is happening today? Is this the devil using them against me?
But I don't understand. How can the devil use them against me?
"GOD ALLOWED IT! THE DEVIL IS NOT USING THEM." Came the gentle whisper.
I quickly took off my back pack and headed up the stairs.
We had planned to meet at Ope's house and spend sometime in prayers. Imagine what would have happened if I had sat down to watch the movie. My phone was upstairs and Ope would call and call until she gets tired.
This was war and the devil is seriously fighting to keep those he has captured perpetually in bondage. If he was willing to go this far to ensure those tied up in sin and darkness were not free, what are we Christians doing to ensure the captives of the mighty are delivered? Interesting question.
I got into my room. Susan was sitting on the bed watching something on her phone. I smiled to myself.
"Welcome Juliet!" She said all smiles.
"Thank you ma!" I lowered my knees courteously.
"Please you need to see this! It's so funny!" She said all beckoning on me to come over.
"Oh! Don't worry! I'll take a look at it when I return. I'm on my way out!"
"It's just a 5 minutes video, I'm sure it won't take your time!"
"There's always time to watch it later. Right now, I don't have a few minutes to spare." I said with a warm smile.
"Okay sis! May the Lord go before and cause you to successfully slay all the enemies of our god in Jesus name!"
"Amen!" I replied with authority.
I quickly took off my school uniform and changed into one of my beautiful gowns. A knee length gown, pink and had flowery decorations all around. Why am I taking my time to describe what I was wearing? Because daddy insisted I must put it on.
I wanted to wear something casual, but daddy insisted I must put on the best. As I open my wardrobe. I could feel him pushing my hands towards that gown. I understood the message very well and went for the gown.
I wanted to put on some palm slippers, but daddy ensured I put on heels.
"Haaaa! Daddy! Am I going to a party?"
"SO AS I SAY JARE!"
"Okay!" I replied.
Although I wasn't comfortable with it, I had to what Daddy wanted. The normal Juliet Anderson hated heels, except when it has to do with parties where we dress to impress, or should I say to kill.
I took my purse and carried my bible in my hand.
"DROP IT!"
"Haaaaaaaa! Daddy, I'm going for evangelism, not a party! How can I go to preach to someone and you don't want me to carry bible?"
"JULIET! THE WORLD IS CHANGING EVERYDAY. YOU NEED TO BE STRATEGIC IN SOUL WINNING. MANY UNBELIEVERS TODAY HATE BEING PREACHED TO. IMMEDIATELY THEY SEE A LADY WITH BIBLE IN HER HANDS WALKING TOWARDS THEM, THEY EXCUSE THEIR FRIENDS AND LEAVE.
SO WILL EVEN SAY, THANK YOU, BUT I'M GOOD. DON'T PREACH TO ME, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.
YOU ARE A SLAY QUEEN, NOT JUST A PREACHER. SO I NEED TO DISGUISE YOU VERY WELL."
"Wow!" I smiled.
"So all the beautiful gown, heels and no bible is all a disguise!"
"SO YOU CAN PENETRATE THE ENEMY'S TERRITORY, WITHOUT THEM NOTICING YOUR INTENTIONS."
"So what soni do if I need to open some bible passages?"
"USE YOUR PHONE! NOBODY WILL SUSPECT A LADY WITH AN ANDROID PHONE IN HER HAND AS A PREACHER. YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY CARRY OUT YOUR MISSION."
"Daddy!"
"YES DEAR!"
"Have I told you before that you're so smart?"
"OH! YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN!"
I burst into laughter and I could also hear him within me laughing as well.
Soon, I was out of the room, dressed like a lady invited to friend's birthday party.
"Where are you going all dressed to kill?" Mummy asked.
"I'm going to kill mummy! And I'm going to make you proud!" I smiled.
The TV was turned off right now and mummy and daddy were having a bible study together.
I was just laughing at Lucifer within me. This guy was really getting on my nerves. A few minutes ago, they were all watching movies, now it's bible study.
"Go! And may the Lord go with you in Jesus name!"
"Amen!"
"Remember to buy something for me on your way back!" She added as I opened the door.
"Haaaaa! Mummy! Why would you expect me to buy for you , when you're supposed to be the one to buy for me?"
"Okay ooo! It's like you're not interested in getting the blessing."
"No ma! It's not like that! I'm a small girl na!"
"Who wants to be blessed by God, but refuses to give. Go ahead and lay down your excuses before God."
"No ma! It's not that I'm making excuses to God oooo! It's just that, I'm a child, you're an adult."
"Juliet, save it! The rules are very simple. You must give if you want to receive from God. There are no two ways about it. No excuses! You don't need to have millions of dollars before you start giving, start with the little you have.
The bible says, he that is faithful in little, he will also be faithful in much. If you cannot give the little you have now, you won't be able to give when you have plenty tomorrow. So don't wait for it, because it might take longer than usual for it to happen. Because, God tries a man, before handing over treasures to him. If the little he gave you is too small for you to release, then he would have doubts about you.
Well I was only joking about it Sha. It's not something serious. What do you want to buy for me that I don't have? But the bible says that the lesser person is blessed by the greater. It depends on you actually.
Why am I taking your time? Please start going, sorry I took your time!"
"Not at all ma. I would do as you have said!" I replied and lowered my knees reverencing her.
"Bye Julie!" Daddy greeted.
"Bye sir! Bye ma!"
"Goodbye!" She replied.
I took a few hurried steps to the gate. I didn't wait for the gateman to open the gate, I did myself.
I walked as fast as I could on those heels. It was really getting on my nerves. Thank God daddy was with me all through the way. If not I would have gone back to change my footwear.
I arrived at Ope's house and met them waiting for me at the church building. They were sitting outside and stood up immediately they saw me walk in.
"Mama! Welcome!" Ope ran to embrace me.
"You look dashing!" Romeo complimented.
"Thank you!" I smiled and blew a kiss at him.
"Mama! I want to be like you when I grow up! See the grace of God all over you right now. I feel like falling in love with God over and over again."
We all burst into laughter.
"Please, let's get into the auditorium and pray. It's getting late!" I announced.
We all walked into the church building and knelt down.
"Father! We need you! We can't do without you! We need you to help us. We need you to put the right words in our mouths. Your word says, open your mouth wide and I will fill it. Daddy, we ask that you fill our mouths in the name of Jesus.
"Amen!" Ope and Romeo chorused in response.
"And Lord, we commit the hearts of daddy Kayla and Segun. Lord, begin to work on their hearts. Soften it as your word will come out of our mouths into their heart. Let it penetrate their innermost being.
And as your word would penetrate, we ask that you the soul winner, will convict them in the name of Jesus!"
"Amen!"
And with that, we launched into battle. We took public transport. Thanks to my monthly allowance from my dad, I funded the journey.
I was expecting daddy to send me monthly allowance, but it would be at the end of the month. I had really spent everything I had on me so quickly. There was a program AJS (Apostle Joshua Selman) was hosting online and I bought data in order to attend on my phone.
So I was really short in cash and right now, mummy was talking about giving. She won't understand when I say I don't have anything. All she would think is that I don't want to give. I want to give, but I don't have much on me, I guess she would understand.
Besides, I don't have a job. I'm a student for crying out loud. Why would a grown up woman like her ask for something from a little girl like me?"
Well, that's an aside. We arrived at the house and held our breath when we saw the huge building staring at us.
Indeed, life without Jesus was empty. Kayla and Segun had everything children of about their age would crave for, but there was no peace.
We were about to knock at the gate when daddy told me not to.
"CALL SEGUN TO COME AND GET YOU GUYS," Came the gentle whisper.
I quickly stopped Ope from knocking and brought out my phone and dialed his number.
"Hello!"
"Yes!"
"This is Juliet Anderson! Do you still remember me?"
"Everybody in Broadway Academy knows Juliet Anderson the woman of God!"
"Oh! That's lovely!"
"Yeah! So what can I do for you?"
"I'm at your house right now and I need you to come and get me. I brought two of my friends along, hope you don't mind?"
"What? You never told me you were coming? Why didn't you?"
"Oh! That actually slipped my mind!"
"THAT'S PART OF THE PLAN! IT WAS INTENTIONAL JULIET, GO ON!" Daddy replied.
"I'm sorry about that!"
"Please you have to go back, we don't allow girls into the house. Kayla doesn't allow female friends into the house. My Dad is too dangerous to be around small girls.
If you had told me, I would have given you the perfect time to come. When my Dad wouldn't be around. That would have been good."
"I'm truly sorry! Please forgive me!"
"Your friends, are they all boys?"
"No! A girl and a boy!"
"Haaaaaaaa! You brought another girl too?"
"I'm sorry! I didn't know it was that bad."
"Juliet, I'm sorry but you'll have to go back!"
Just then the gate opened and a man stood before us, staring at us.
I didn't need to guess who it was.
To be continued.....
That day that you felt so tired of praying. That day that quiet time seemed so uninteresting. That day that commiting sin looked so harmless.
That's the day, Satan has always been waiting for.
When you're being tested, even God will allow the people around you to discourage you. The people you call and call expecting to hear words of encouragement from. That would be the day their numbers will be busy or they wouldn't pick up.
Heaven and Hell would watch you intently. Waiting to see your level of loyalty to God.
Lord, may that day not be the day I'll compromise my stand.
May I never compromise on the day you'll try me in Jesus name
Can you make that your prayer point?
Juliet is about to slay a big fish! It's looking so impossible humanly.
Watch out for the next episode.
