Sons of the Flaming Throne 2 – Ch. 16 | KT OLLA

THE young queen’s ride into the palace was a quiet one. There were no horns and trumpets. Like there were when David wed his first, the wife of his youth.

No, there were no drums and dances, sparkles of a lavish nuptial. Like it was the case in the days of Michal daughter of Saul.

Like it is with the first of someone’s love.

But then the young new bride shone that whole day like the moon appears and brightens a night. For when she appeared in front of David’s palace, even the stone walls found their life.

Fair Abisha arrived in the royal caravan and the glister in that procession was this damsel so beautiful for any man to own.

Everyone stopped and looked, and wondered why she was just arriving. Why she wasn’t born when their king was her age.

And even Abisha marvelled that she was born for this.

The young beautiful bride was led out of the gilded cart, and she walked a palms bounded lane into David’s court.

Her steps were showered with costly spikenards as she walked up a path she’d never dreamed.

She heard the cheers of the courtiers and servants; so she knew her curse had really turned a blessing.

Abisha was so overwhelmed by the welcome. She felt really grateful for the turn of her tide.

Again, she wondered if she’d really see David. And when she lingered, it beat her more that she was his. That she was his wife.

So that night when the fairest one came in to David, the weather-beaten king woke up and glared.

He sighted something he couldn’t place in words. He sighted something more forceful than the love of a mistress.

He looked and beheld. And there in front of him was beauty in her purest form.

He felt her touch and caress in the keenest sense. He saw a young love with her fires. And his soul woke up beneath his skin.

Now when the king came alive, he only stared and gaped. For the ardent polygamist could not have her laid, as sizzling and enticing as her touches were.

He could not sleep, and yet he could not sleep with her. He was too old to lay with a new wife.

Still he could not lie, nor could he lay with her. There was no way he could make love this way.

And so, the monarch stopped and rested; and he was refreshed in the tender warmth of his wife’s cuddle.

For this was the sentence for a whole life lived for women’s love. When the evil days come and one would say there is no pleasure.

Now King David’s rightful heir would wed Abisha as wife, when the man reigns in the place of his father.

And so, David stopped and rested. For he’d spent his own life.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 3 – Ch. 30 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

AT Gibeon King Solomon offered a huge sacrifice of a thousand cattle. That great sacrifice stirred up the heart of God, as the soul which offered it pleased Him much. So there in the smoking clouds, God appeared to Solomon—and it was a breathtaking moment to hear Him speak. For He asked a man to make a wish: He asked Solomon to state his need. ‘I have seen your heart and your offering, and I am pleased with you this day. ‘Therefore Son of David, ask of Me anything you please, and I shall give you whatever you say.’ Right there where the mortal man bowed, he knew this was a mighty offer. But his needs weren’t so many to place in a giant offer. He wanted to ask one thing that is mightier than power and riches. He wanted to own one thing that is chief among so many. So He answered, ‘O God of Israel, You have loved David and blessed him in his days. ‘And this grace, You have extended to me his son: You have set me on his throne. ‘Still here I am in the midst of the many people you have mad...

Here’s what God asks us to tell His people in Nigeria | KT OLLA

  Dear Readers, here is what God asks us to tell Nigeria, today the 1st of April, 2022 —  THE PROPHECY  — 1. The Lord said the sins and atrocities of Nigeria He can no longer ignore. He said He will now punish all lawlessness, unless we repent and change our ways. 2. He said it is for this sake that He has withdrawn the showers of rain, and made them really sparse. 3. God said unless Nigerians repent and turn from all lawlessness, there is coming a draught so severe that it will spark up very strange fires. 4. Yet so that God’s people will not suffer or be shaken, He asks us to tell you our readers and everyone who cares to listen, that you store and keep storing up water without a stop. He sternly instructed us all to do this. 5. God also commanded us to assure His people of His promise for this time. He said He will preserve the righteous during these trying times that will go on to try even the world. 6. He said several times over that the righteous will inherit t...

🛡️Safety Call! – KT OLLA

Running into a rock? The times are testing everywhere in the world. Outdoor is the heat of violence and crime; indoors are the worst cases of lack or need. Everything seemed like the end is here, when most people are just starting to live. But whether it is the beginning of the end, or nothing like it at all… well, all of us just wants to survive. We mean, really survive. Like running into a rock till the heat of God’s sun passes. For this too shall pass, we know. But then, a question sometimes bothers us – particularly at this time. And it is this one thing that we often ask: “Isn’t there something we can do to escape these harsh realities? Isn’t there something we can do at the very least?” The whole world had stayed home at a time, till we were all tired of hiding. But home stopped proving to be a good shelter those times. In fact, plagues opened locked doors and stole away our dear ones. We had thereafter fled outside, running from those things that plagued our earth. We hid in roc...
