Go people 🌟🌟

Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

Dear intending couples,,

I know sometimes you get uncomfortable with my write-ups but sincerely my job is not to make you happy but teach you principles that can sustain your happiness in a long run.

I know you are currently planning your traditional marriage and your white wedding and I know this will be very helpful to you.

I want us to plan this together so be relax while I make a few suggestions.

You must have heard that while your wedding is drawing close, finances become a problem right?

This post is to make you understand the fallacy in that school of thought.

In planning your wedding, avoid the following traps.

1. Planning with a budget that is in the hands of others.

During my time, I knew from the onset that I had no one anywhere that will raise money for me so this helped me to plan with my own budget.

Usually there is this nonsense pressure from either parents, or relatives who always know how a wedding should be but will never give you a dime to meet their expectations.

You are getting married, not them.

You cannot let people who will not help you pay debts make you get into debts.

2. Friends. The first major reason why you will face disssapointments is trying to do it the way your friend did his or her own.

When you compete with people, their failures will be your failures. Your friends will never tell you what they did to get money which they made their wedding look so glamorous.

I know a girl whose wedding was sponsored by 2 of her sugar Daddy's and both of them were in attendance and never knew they're co labourers in the same vineyard.

No one ever documents the success of a wedding but people will write about successful marriages.

Get your priorities right.

3. Proper planning. A properly planned low budget wedding has 💯% chances of being more beautiful than a 'sponsored' wedding. Very little but creative ideas can make your day turn out royal, so start planning on time.

4. The first few months after your wedding are going to be challenging because you both will be trying to adjust.

Set aside some money to buy foodstuffs, ofcourse you need a new place if where you are living is small, and the furnishing.

You should be more concerned about making yourself more comfortable as you move in to live together than ensuring people who came for the wedding are very satisfied.

At a funeral, people still complain of lack of meat in the soup so don't kill yourself for anyone.

5. Finally, avoid borrowing.

This most times has made alot of couples become enemies just during their honey moon.

Instead of spending time bonding, you're are always being distracted with calls of people who either want to collect their balance for canopies, chairs, decorations, drinks, food you took on credit to make people happy.

I have come across a couple that wanted separation 2weeks after wedding and reasons was because of debt.

The lady will not agree for a low budget wedding. She put pressure on the guy and finally the guy ran into debt just to please her, expecting that people will support their wedding.

When repayment time came, everyone was gone. They went through hell.

Their property were seized, they were humiliated and so on.

Learn to walk before you start running.

I hope this can be useful to you this festive period as you go home for your trad.

Congratulations in advance.

THE STORM OF LIFE

CHAPTER TWENTY ONE

THE END

The pastor stares into his eye and dropped the frame in his hand. He smiled and sat in front of John.

“The next step is you setting your prayer altar on fire. You must be charged and connected to God. It means you have to address the problem and since you already know the secret of your battle, it is now easy” The pastor said to him.

“The prayer point is that, ‘O Lord, fight my battle for me’. You only need God to fight this battle for you. You can’t do alone and it is only with his help you can become victorious” The pastor added.

“Is that all sir, just that single prayer point, am sorry to say sir, it looks funny to me. How can God fight my battle when I am the one with the battle” John asked looking confused.

“Bro. John, it seems you are not spiritually sound, you are just being religious all this while. Have you forgotten that there is no one that can battle with the Lord? No power can confront him and win” The pastor explained to him.

“Don’t forget that it was until God fought on behalf of the children of Israel, they were held captive in Egypt. It was until God fought on behalf of Daniel, his blessing was delayed by the prince of Persia. So, John you need to ask God to step into your battle and fight for you” The pastor added.

“Hmm, I now understand fully. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds” John answered smiling.

John together with the pastor spared some time to study the bible together as they both fasted and pray together.

John prayed the prayer “ O lord, fight for me” and with the pastor’s support, he was able to pray much longer and in the night they prayed the other session of the prayers as John went to sleep after the prayers.

He had barely fallen deep into his sleep when he had another dream. In the dream, he saw the same creature with his image. This time it came challenging him with a fierce look.

“Oh, I can see that you are already having courage to challenge me but let me tell you, you can’t fight this battle and win” The creature said to John.

“I will because I didn’t come alone this time, I am here with the Lord of Host and he is mighty in battle to defeat you” John replied the creature.

The creature laughed pointing at John in a mocking voice.

“Says who? You that don’t even know the power that is the word you are professing” The creature said to him.

“There is a legal hold on your life and with that you can’t be free from my grip” The creature answered him laughing.

“What legal ground do you have over me, I have been cleansed by the blood of the Lamb and I am now a new being, therefore you have no legal authority over me” John replied the creature.
“Ahh, ahh, John, who is the person giving you confidence, no one can deliver you from my hand. Your family has been in my bo***ge for a very long time and no one dare confront me nor try to break free of this yoke but you are here challenging me, on what authority do you stand to start confronting me” The creature asked John again.

“I stand on the authority of Je.,..” It shuts him up.

“Shut up your mouth, that name is not needed here, you have no right to that name. You are a sinner, you slept with your secretary have you forgotten” The creature reminded him.

When John heard that he almost became weak but he became charged up once more. “It is true I did that, but old things have passed away, am now a new being” John said to him while the creature looked on in shock.

The creature was trying to instill guilt into John so that he would start feeling guilty of his sins even though he was already forgiven.

*************
In the coven, the Land Lady, Helen and other member of the group were ready for battle as they start to summon the spirit of John.

“What have we been doing, John is trying to break free from the yoke, it mustn't be allowed” The land lady screamed as she instructs the other members to rally round her.

“As you all know that unity means strength, we have to be united in this battle so that we will prevent John from becoming victorious.” She said to the members and they equally agreed.

They formed alliance with other deadly demons and called on the spirit of John to appear before them. They made the first attempt, nothing happened.
“No, this is strange, how can I call on you without answer, now this is your last chance and if I call on you, you must land among the dead.

She made the last attempt joining hands with Helen to summon John’s instead of John’s image to appear, it was fire that consumed the landlady and Helen as both fell down. When the other members noticed what happened they fled.

“This is mysterious” they shouted as they fled. Helen and the Landlady became paralyzed and suffers severe pain in their body.

“Ahh, I have used my hands to destroy myself, had I known, I wouldn’t have made this mistake” Helen screamed in pain while the Landlady regretted her action. They wanted to move but could not.

In the dream, John continued with the battle with the creature. “ You see this certificate, I am not handing it over to you because it is my property” The creature said to him.

“Never, It belongs to me and I must take back my destiny from you” John said to him while the creature laugh.

“Those that tried it earlier, ask them where they are. I reduced your brother to nothing, he felt he could combat me with dark magic, ahh, ahh, I dealt with him so now, who are you. In as much you bear the surname of your father, and you have his blood running in you, then you can’t be free from my grip.” The creature said to John and was about leaving when John screamed a prayer point.

“O Lord, arise and fight my battle” He shouted in the dream and in a twinkle of an eye there was a flash light and there appeared an angel from the Lord. It came like a mighty rushing wind and stood in gap for John.

“You have no right over his destiny, it is true that he bears the surname and the blood runs in his blood but have you forgotten that the heaven and the earth belong to the Lord” The angel said to the demon.

“Angel of God, You are not needed here” The creature replied.

“John is no longer a child of bo***ge, he is now in Christ and now a new being. You have no legal right over him anymore, he is free from you. The generational curse has been broke because he has broken the gate of brass and cut the bars of iron in asunder. Therefore, every foundational battle is rendered useless over John. Therefore, I decree that you should release his destiny” The angel instructed the demon.

“Ahh, Never, it is written that the fathers eats the sour grapes, But the children’s teeth are set on edge?” The creature replied the angel.

“Never again, Everyone shall die for his own iniquity. Behold, all souls are mine; the soul of the father as well as the soul of the son is mine. The soul who SINS will die” The angel replied.

“Hmm, which means” The creature asked.

“It means, John’s fore fathers were the one who committed the offence and should bear their sins themselves.” The angel replied him.

“Therefore, John is not entitled to suffer any sin committed by his father since he has known the one who is the yoke breaker. I command you in the name of Jesus Christ, release the destiny to him” The angel commanded the creature and it surrendered the certificate and every other things to John.

“It is true that you are free but the battle is not over yet…I will go and be back with seven other deadlier demons and when I see that your life is full of iniquities, I will come back in full force. You are the only one that is free, your other siblings are still in my cage and till then. BYE.” The creature later transformed into the young lady that was molested and vanished.

John shouted for Joy right from the sleep till he woke up. He was singing victory song. His pastor who had been praying on his behalf heard the song and came out asking him what happened. He narrated all that happened to him and they both praised God.

The following morning, Helen and the landlady were found dead by those that were passing by. They had become stiff with their operation clothes on them. The news reached John and he broke down in tears because Helen and the landlady died without changing their ways.

“You just have to give God the glory, thank him for his mercies and the freedom he has given to you.” The pastor consoled him.

Few weeks Later, John was called for an interview and he was selected without any problem in a construction company. With dedication and favor, he became the manager. After some months of working there, he started his own construction company and became an household name.

He left the pastor’s house for his new house, got married and lived a comfortable life. He never joke with the things of God and he made sure he was always checking on the pastor.

Few months later, the pastor decided to travel back to the United States where he continued his missionary work but remained unmarried. Before leaving he dropped a letter for John.

DEAR JOHN.

With Love and Happiness, I am writing to you this letter. I really appreciate the love of God over you. How are your family, I hope all is well.
I am writing this to you so that you can archive it and read it always. I want you to always remember all you passed through before you reach the level you are now. Don’t be carried away by your success and forget God. He is the only one that can help you, your effort is nothing without his input. Don’t neglect the work he had laid into your hands. Tend the sheep, feed the flocks.

Always understand that it is not all those that smiles at you wish you well, you are surrounded by wicked powers, be prayerful and be wise. Remember that he who is prayerful is powerful. The devil goes about like a roaring Lion seeking whom to devour. You have to be careful. There is always a storm of life.

Understand that temptation would come but you have to resist it and when you fall, quickly trace your step back to God. I will not be there with you always but God will be with you always. Be faithful to your wife because it is the only way to maintain your blessings.

John, I want you to understand that the world we are in is spiritual and the spiritual controls the physical. Learn to hear from God, don’t always be a dreamer but someone who can listen to God. When you listen to him, it helps to prevent some mishap. Don’t be too busy for God. Remember all you went through.

In all, help others just as I have done for you. Don’t keep the knowledge you have to yourself alone. Help your brothers and let them break free from the bo***ge. They need you.

Always pray to know the secret of things happening and with that it would be easy to address the problem. Understand that Life is a Battle and it requires a strong person to survive and it is only through Prayer and spiritual alertness.

Before I conclude, note the prayer we prayed then for future use. “ O Lord, reveal the secret of my problem”. “Every generational battle affecting my life, be destroyed.” “ O Lord, arise and fight my battle”. I pray God love and protection be with you. Amen. God bless you.

Till we meet again

With love…

Your pastor.

John read the letter and broke into tears, his wife was beside him consoling him. Anyways it was the tears of Joy. He stood up and smiled saying…

“I CONQUERED THE STORM OF LIFE”

THE END.

THE STORM OF LIFE

CHAPTER TWENTY

It was a fierce battle between the angel and the agent of darkness. They maintained their legal ground on John as they claimed that he was in their bo***ge. The pastor kept praying for days still there was no sign of improvement on his health.

"I don't understand why things are going this way, it seems that the heaven looks closed on John's case" He murmured to himself as he was sitting behind him in the hospital.

"O Lord, save your child and help him" He prayed staring at John who was lying down on the hospital bed.

As he sat down, there was a still small voice which communicates with him. He was spiritually awakened so he recognised that it was God speaking to him.

"You are not praying the right prayer my son, that is why it seems that there is no answer. You have been praying for mercy and I already did that but you are yet to pray the right prayers that would address your problem" The voice said to him silently.

"Right prayer?" The pastor said to himself as if he was replying the voice.

"You should ask for the secret behind the problem, It is when you know the secrets behind a problem that you can address it well." The voice said to him.

The pastor decided to pray to God to reveal the secret of John's problem. He prayed extensively and God decided to reveal the whole situation to him. He became aware that the agents of darkness were the ones behind the problem. He was scared when it was revealed to him, he was told about the blood covenant and then decided to address the issue.

He started to pray that God should break the blood covenant that was binding John and Helen together which the agent of darkness were using as a legal ground. This he did with an aggressive prayer till everything was restored back to normal.

"Doctor!!, the drip is already working perfectly"One of the nurses shouted to the doctor who was surprised to see it working again.

"Wow, this is wonderful, it is marvelous" The doctor shouted as John's condition became normalise again till he was discharged.

**************BACK TO PRESENT**************

"Hmmm, I really appreciate all you have done sir" John said to the pastor and sigh.

"All glory belongs to God, you should be grateful to him not me" The pastor replied him smiling.

"I am only waiting for you to recover quickly so that we can address some of the issues that are affecting your life" The pastor said to him.

"Yes sir, I really need to stand on my feet" He replied the pastor.

SEVERAL MONTHS LATER

John has regained his strength fully even though, he could not still make use of his leg properly, he make use of the walking stick as a support for him. He has nothing to show or claim as his own. There was nothing left for him. He applied for several jobs but was declined. He was back to square one again but this time he has understood better and learnt a lot of lessons about staying with God and connecting with him.

"Sir, I thought once we repented and move back to God, then all our problems are solved. Why am I still experiencing this hardship" He asked his pastor one day as they were studying the bible together in the living room.

"Hmm, that's always the belief of most people that once you are born again, then everything has to be in place but it doesn't work like that, we all have different foundational background and battles that we still need to address."

"your own battle is different from mine. It is true that once you are born again, everything should be smooth but have you forgotten that even the kingdom of God suffereth violence and the violence taketh it by force" His pastor said while John stares at him.

"What I mean is that, in your family, there might be some deeds that your fore fathers had done that we are not aware of and now giving one a hard fight. This world itself is a battle, so that you have repented and forsaken your sins does not mean that you are going to have it smooth. We wrestle not again flesh and blood but against rulers of darkness and powers in high places" His pastor further enlightened him.

"We are only surrendering our lives to God so that he will assits us in the battle, that is why he said that " Come unto me all ye that labour and heavy laden and I will give you rest." The pastor added while John nods his head in acceptance.

"Sir, what can I do, I am tired of this situation, I need to get back on my feet. I need to defeat this battle but I don't even know where the battle is coming from, am confused" He said to the pastor looking sober.

"Don't be sober, there is nothing God cannot do" His pastor replied him.
"First, to unravel the mystery behind your failures, your lack of moving forward, you will pray this prayer point" He said to John.

"O LORD, REVEAL TO ME THE SECRET OF MY PROBLEM" He said to John who was looking at him in surprise.

"Sir, that prayer points looks strange. I don't understand it" He said to the pastor who was smiling.

"It is true it looks strange but only a strange prayer can combat a strange battle" he replied him smiling.

"Can you explain it to me sir" John pleaded.

"Hmm, it is a deep prayer point, you see there are some problems that battles man and despite the amount of prayers and effort in moving forward, nothing to show for it. But once you know the secret of your problem and understand where the battle is coming from, it would be easy to face it squarely and dominate it" His pastor explained it to him.

"It was the secret of the problem that was revealed to Joseph that was why he was able to provide solution to the king's dream which later led to his elevation as prime minister" He added.

"The secret was revealed to David that helped him in defeating Goliath. So, knowing the secret of ones battle is important in prayer and it prevents you from praying amiss" The pastor said to him tapping his shoulder.

That night, John prayed like no man's business telling God to reveal the secret of the battle he was facing. He prayed that all his body vibration showed that he was. he was tired of the life he was living. After the prayers, he slept and had a strange dream.

In a large space, John saw himsef going alone without anyone in sight, as he was going, there came another image exactly like him laughing at him. At first, he was shock and wanted to run but he later stood his ground to challenge the image like creature.

"Who are you and why are you using my image and that files in your hand belongs to me" John said to the creature which was laughing hard at him

"See a foolish man thinking he is wise. On whose authority standing that you are asking me those questions" The figure replied him still laughing at him.

"Let me tell you, your fore fathers are the one that sinned, now you are the one bearing the consequences" The creature said to him.

"My forefathers?" John asked looking curious.

"Yes, he angered the gods and swore that his generations should suffer the consequence of his sins which all of you are now suffering" The creature said to him and laugh.

"You see the file in my hand is your original certificate and academic qualifications. You see the one you are carrying about seeking for Job is the fake and useless. Don't you think of it that anytime you table the one in your hand, you lose the job, ahhh, ahhh" The creature laughed at him again.

"Yes, it is true but I ..." John was confused.

"You can't understand, I am generational curse, I am the one that is in charge of your family case. In as much you bear the surname of your father, You can never make it in life because there is a covenant between your forefather and a maiden to the gods." The creature explained to him.

"You are just a walking co**se on earth; in the physical you look alive and healthy but in the spiritual you are the fake and dead to us. You see, you can;t move further than you have gone in life" The creature added laughing hard at him.

"But what is the sin of my fore fathers, that I am now the one suffering" John asked the creture and it took time to explain how his fore father had forced his way on a virgin lady who was bethrothed to the gods; how he had denied her and ridiculed the young lady that made her committed su***de.

"Ahh!!, so that was the cause of my problem" John exclaimed.

"Yes, in as much you are born into the family, you can't escape it. It is true you are born again but we are always there to make you suffer" The creature boasted.

"These certificates of yours is useless to me but I will not release it, you are to suffer till you die" The creature added smiling at John who was shaking.

"Why are you using my image?" John queried.

"This is what I use in disguising whenever I want to attack those that are trying to help you. Do you remember the incident about the man that was trying to help that chaos was cause in his company, I was the one behind it. I masquerade so that your helpers would run when they want to help you. They are not seeing the real you but a fake one. That is why they are running from you. Your certificate that got missing on the night before your interview, I took it and later returned it when you missed the interview." The creature said to him while John opened his mouth in shock.

"What about Helen and Mama Landlady?" John asked.

"They are just agents to enforce our missions" The creature said to him.

"John, You can't be free from us" It said laughing and disappeared.

"Nooooo" John screamed till he woke up from the sleep.

"Generational curse, Blood covenant!!!? " John said to himself as he was shivering ...

NOW, WHAT NEXT...

Understanding the secret of ones problem is really important in prayers so as not to pray amiss. " OH, LORD, REVEAL THE SECRET OF MY PROBLEM". It looks strange right, but very helpful. Once the secret is revealed, you will find prayer easy to pray and your prayers will be directed at the target. Most of us need just one prayer point to make it in life and be free from all battles. Remember, the Spiritual controls the physical. Remain blessed.

To be continued.

THE STORM OF LIFE

CHAPTER NINETEEN

Several weeks later, John was discharged from the hospital having completed his treatment but was told to come back for frequent medical checkups. Although, he was gaining back his strength, still he was unable to make use of his right leg properly which made him depend on walking sticks, he still suffers from partial stroke. While at the hospital, he could not pray well but the pastor was interceding on his behalf.

John no longer has anything to call his own; he had to move into the pastor’s house till he would be able to stand on his feet. He looked back at all he lost; he had little money in his account as he had spent all his savings on hospital bills and medication. He could not imagine that the house of his pastor which he left then now serves as a place of abode for him.

“Hmm, (Sighs) I can’t just imagine that things could turn out this way” He said shaking his head while his pastor was trying to help him with medicine he was to take that morning.

“Bro. John, I have told you several times that you should get over this, the more you continue to think about the happenings, the more your health would become worst.” The pastor tried to explain to him at the same time console him.

“I understand you sir but… (Paused)” He could not finish his words as his pastor turned to look at him.

“You should be grateful, do you think it was by luck you are still alive, it was by his mercy. You are aware of the spiritual battle we fought while you were at the hospital before God took control. I think you should just try and relax now and have peace of mind.” The pastor said to him and handed over the medicine to him so that he can use.

“Hmm, that’s true sir, I need to be grateful to God. (sighs).

**************FLASHBACK TO THE HOSPITAL****************
The Coven of darkness summoned the spirits behind the blood covenant; they gave John a fierce fight in the hospital.

“Doctor! Doctor!!” One of the nurses shouted running through the corridor to call on him to come and examine what was happening.

The doctor in shock raced to the ward where John was. He examined John’s body only to discover that he was short of blood despite the fact that they were transfusing blood into his body.

“This is strange, there is still blood left in the drip while is this happening. He checked his pulse and discovers that John was losing consciousness.

“Did you administer the drugs to him this morning?” The doctor asked in shock.

“Yes sir, I did. I even made sure he ate his food before taking the drugs, am surprised sir” The nurse replied.

“But this is strange, there is still blood left in the drip, yet his pulse is going down and it seems as if he is not getting enough blood” The doctor replied looking confused.

“Check his water level” The doctor ordered only to discover that it was low in spite of the drip.

“No, this is my first time of seeing this, please get me the oxygen” He ordered while it was set up to enhance John’s breathing.
Unknown to the doctors and nurses, while they were transfusing the blood to his body, the agents of darkness were sucking it out of his body. Spiritually, they hindered the flow of the blood into his body. As the drip was flowing, it was going into a calabash. Even the drugs used for him were not having any effect. In the physical, it was as if he was taking drugs but the drugs was already rendered useless so it was not having any effect on him.

The doctor ignorantly started injecting him and adding other chemicals to sustain his life but it was all in vain. While they were struggling with that, the landlady and her group were laughing at them watching them in their demonic mirror.

“He thought he can escape from us, it is not possible. We are going to finish him soon but before that let make him suffer a bit” The landlady smiled at her members including Helen who was smiling all through.

The doctor became confused as every effort was proving abortive.

“Ahh, ahh, see the blood and water drip reducing, it is flowing down showing it should be going into his body but why is his body looking pale and unconscious. This is serious” He hits his hand on his head. He was seeing that for the first time in his life.

“Do you have the contact of any relative, we need more blood here because we have exhausted the ones in the blood bank” He said to one of the nurse who quickly placed a call through to the pastor asking him to come urgently.

In less than an hour, the pastor rushed to the hospital and was told all that was happening. At first, it looked unbelievable to him and sounds funny.

“Are you saying the blood been transfused into his body is reducing but not going into his body” He asked the nurse who was more confused.

“Yes sir, this is my first time of witnessing something like this” He said to the pastor who was staring at her.

“You can come and see for yourself” The nurse said to him and he followed her only to be shocked that it was happening.

At first he did not know what he should do. He went out of the place and was thinking about what to do as he did not know where he could get blood since most of the hospital don’t have enough blood and to get a donor for John was another problem as his blood group was scared.

After much thought, almost giving up, he communicated silently with God.

“Oh, Lord, please have mercy on John. Don’t let him die like this” He prayed without concentration as his mind was divided.

He sat down looking blankly into the environment when there was a still voice speaking to him that he should pray as it was the work of witchcraft.

“Witchcraft!!!?” The pastor exclaimed as a result of two reasons. First, the doctors would not believe him if he tell that to them. Secondly, he was surprised that something of such could happen.

After much hesitation, he ran to the doctor and told them what he heard and to his surprise, the doctor gave him a go ahead.

“I do believe this is not ordinary, it looks spiritual even though science don’t believe in spiritual stuff but I do, so you can go ahead” The doctor said to him

The pastor went to the ward to check on him. He placed his hands on John and was praying silently so as not to disturb other patients that were at the hospital but his body movement indicates that he was deep in prayer. He prayed for a longer period still it seems as if it was not been answered.

The agents were preventing the prayers from taking effect as they lay claim on the fact that John had s.e.x with one of their members. It was a battle between them and the pastor who started pleading for God’s mercy on behalf of John.

“God, let your mercy prevail. You said he that confess and forsake his sins shall obtain mercy. John has admitted his sin and has confessed them, show him mercy Lord” He prayed but the agents refused to let John go. They continued to battle with the pastor.

It seems as if all hope was lost until when God later interfered into the case after the pastor prayed asking him to step into the case.

“O Lord, arise and intervene into John’s matter” He cried out.

“Impossible, we can’t free him, John has made a blood covenant with us through the s.e.x he had with Helen and that has given us the power over him and we can do whatever we want with him.” The agents said to the angel from God.

“You know, wise one (bowing to the angel) that s.e.x is a like a bond between two people and now that John had fornicated with a possessed lady, he can’t be free.” They made their stand known.

“It is true but he has repented and asked for forgiveness of sins and God has forgiven him so you have no legal ground over him anymore” The angel replied.

“Yes, it is true he has repented of his sins but no sinner would go unpunished. John is yet to suffer for all he had done, he must suffer” The agents said to angel.

“Even, the bible said, none of the word of the creator would go without being fulfilled, so John cannot escape this punishment” They replied the angel.

“John has eaten the forbidden fruit and it is necessary he must suffer” The agents maintained their ground

As the battle was going on in the spiritual realm, John was groaning in pain on the bed while the pastor opened his eyes to check on him. He was already lean. The pain was becoming unbearable for him. The pastor was praying and at the same time comforting him.

“John, you have to be strong to fight this battle, don’t give up yet” The pastor said to him with bitterness in his voice.
