God is Faithful

The Jeep Freelander that is burning above was once my husband's beautiful car.  It burnt on the way when he was returning from Esan to Lagos.
This has taken me a while to write because the shock of loosing a car through burning ( the car was totally burnt) was too much to bear. The blow was just very painful.

During the Easter holiday, my husband traveled to his Villages with 2 of his cousins. I did not go because I wanted to use the holidays to rest.

 He left that Good Friday very early. I had to attend prayer rain at prayercity and the traffic was hectic. I called him and he said he had passed through easily because he left earlier.
Throughout his stay and and all the places he went to in the village, he would call and tell me about the activities and the people..
On Sunday, the brother who is a Pastor  left the village for Ajaokuta, Kogi State where he resides with his family. I had expected my husband to leave the Village to Uromi to sleep. But he didn't. He went back to the village for an important meeting.

What was the Meeting about?
In the Village, they had a  businessman who came from the City of Warri to start mechanized farming in the village.The man had met some Elders and given them money. But the Youths were not involved in that negotiations so they protested and stopped the man from starting anything in the village. In order to resolve the crisis, my husband and others went to the Village.

Back at home, a meeting was held by all the stakeholders and the Elders were not happy that people came from Lagos, Warri, Port Harcourt and Benin to resolve the issue in the village and i think, it was then that they decided that my husband being a Lawyer probably talked the others into the Meeting.
He said after the meeting, the Elders and the business man came to see him claiming they wanted to discuss privately with him. He refused them having a talk with him and advised them to abide with all the decisions taken at the General meeting. So the Elders left (so it seemed).

In the morning, that Monday,  they all came out and saw a fresh tail of porcupine by the car. My husband said he quickly went into the house to pick the Anointing Oil and came out to pour it on what he saw. He said they all prayed and  afterward burnt the porcupine tail.
On their way, he noticed the exhaust pipe was leaking so he welded it in the next village and continued on their journey to Lagos.

The Sunday night, I had a dream where my husband was rushed to the hospital and I was asking people to call his brothers to tell them. I woke up and I cancelled the evil dream and rejected in its totality what the dream stood for. I commanded God to frustrate the effect of the evil dream and convert every defeat to victory.

My Husband said he heard some noise but he was on the Benin Bye-pass which is always lonely. The Cousin that was with him said that they decided to drive close to Okada where people are but the smoke that started coming out from the engine made them stop. He said when he opened the bonnet, he heard a loud bum sound. He ran to the booth, brought out the Fire Extinguisher and other travelers stopped too to help but the fire refused to be extinguished.

So when he called that the car has gone up in flames, I just advised him to stay away and start praising God for sparing his life.

That day was really hectic for all of us. It was full of anxiety and worries. I was on the telephone throughout trying to comfort, encourage and hold his hands in prayers.

To the Glory of God, he was able to salvage some things from the car before it burnt down finally.
He had to take a commercial vehicle from there to Lagos. He got home late that day and we were all grateful.

I thank God for Life. I thank God for disappointing our enemies. I thank HIM, for not allowing us to put our hands on our heads to cry and mourn.

Affliction will not rise up again in our lives or home in Jesus name.

Thank God that he has gotten a new car. All praise to JEHOVAH Over-Do

Our God is Faithful.
