Knighted Again – Ch.24 | KT OLLA

IT was a special morning for Maqwela at his palace. Sand and Muse returned for their assignment with the ruler.

The music stars were in a private talk with him. They were seated with him inside the secured hall where he’d had a talk with them before.

It was the place with a secret pass into Zadeque’s. The prince lived in an adjourning cottage which the pass opened to. 

So in their talk, Nile and Vickie told the monarch about salvation through Jesus.

They told him that it was Jesus who had touched him through their music. That He’ll always restore wholeness to those who’d be grateful to Him.

They told the monarch that Jesus was ready to give him a second touch and make him well. That the man needed to turn his life to Him.

Maqwela smiled at the friends and said no. He gave a reason that surprised the two.

 ‘I know your Jesus… probably more than you think I do. I know He pardons sins – I’ve heard it many times before.

‘See, if I was to be talking with other people, I’d just have told them that I’m also Christian – I go to church at least.

‘But you kids are my friends, so I’ll just tell you my truth.’

He sat up and spoke. ‘You see, I can’t turn my life over to Him. I’ve done so much evil in this life. So much for any good man to forgive!

‘So tell me, how can Jesus Christ take me?’

He stressed, ‘If there are boundaries to evil, I think I have crossed all boundaries…

‘So I don’t think Jesus will save someone like me!’

Vickie spoke up at that point.

‘Your Royal Majesty, it is not a question of how many or little our bad deeds are…

‘If we desperately want God’s pardon and we don’t return anymore, then Jesus can write a new story for us.

‘He is Saviour because we are sinners!’

Maqwela looked at her and sighed. He wished he could find that life where things were starting again.

Where he could laugh and smile without using a mask. Where he could lead his life in all its fullness from then on.

He wished to start anew… but he’d lost hope.

He spoke now: ‘I will tell you the least of what I can say. Then you can tell me if you still think God can save me!’

Nile and Vickie were surprised. They exchange a puzzled glance. It was as though they spoke their thoughts out when they looked to each other and sighed.

Come, how can someone defend his crimes so much, when he’s the same person lamenting them?

But who looks for proofs that he can’t be pardoned? Who hates what is good this plenty much?

The young duo thought about it, and at first it didn’t make sense.

But then they found it and smiled. They heard the heart that pumped those queries.

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...
