MUSTARD IV – Ch. 13 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

NOW after a while, the Morrows started looking forward to finding joy again. They wanted kids.

For when people say one should never give up hope, it appears as though even our breath is hope.

Well, this breath we take is Hope. So when we give up hope, we give up life. We give up the chance to live a dream. We give up on us.

Now the Morrows didn’t. They dared to live their dreams. They dared to hope.

But there they were, the pregnancy suddenly stopped forming then. There were no signs of conception. Life went that hard.

But right at the time, a rainbow appeared. And Future was born.

It was March 1986, and the wind of God’s Spirit had changed Nigeria.

There was a huge hunger for God and the wonders He alone can do.

Then there were more outreaches, then more miracles in church.

So this day came and the couple went for a church program.

It was an outreach; so people had gathered with issues only God could solve.

Banji and Grace were among the thousands gathered there.

Well, the couple were disciples under the ministry of Enoch Adeboye.

Then the Lord had called the revivalist to both shepherd and preach; to pastor and to reach.

So that time, Pastor Adeboye held his outreach in church. Then it reached beyond the walls.

Now in that big outreach, the first two weeks of March then, there went mighty proofs of God’s power.

There were the blind who saw, the crippled who walked – and diseases being healed at the name of Jesus Christ.

Then in the middle of all this, God spoke in the preacher’s ears.

He paused amid the sermon, and said:

‘The Lord says, “There is a woman here: You have had two miscarriages in a row, and even now you think you will not conceive.”

‘Daddy asked me to tell you, “Prepare for a full house.” Because He is giving you two sets of twins!’

That moment was the miracle. A resounding amen tore through the crowd.

There was suddenly joy springing up in dry ground. And in one corner of that place, a 31-year-old woman was up in tears.

‘That is me!’ she cried. ‘Yes, that is me! It is me!’

There are no apt words for this; but Grace knew this was her.

She wished she could prove it, then God did.

For she missed her next flow—and cried.


To Be Continued… in 5.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 2 – Ch. 20 | KT OLLA

DAVID had been reigning for about forty years already. And in those years of his reign in Israel, soldiers have stood and fallen for him. The warlord had conquered lands, conquered nations. He’d taken territories, subdued enemies. Yet as the monarch grew older and nations bowed to him, there remained no wars to fight; and so his valiant men had nothing doing. His soldiers settled in families and kept livestock. They became shepherds and keepers of vines. The great ones among them got involved in public duties and administration. Still, there were a few who didn’t change with the changing tide. And chief among them was Joab, commander of the army. No, it wasn’t that the man didn’t settle down with family or other civil matters. But Joab wasn’t quite settled enough when it came to his heart and attitude. The old man had been quite loyal to David through the long years. But ever since the time that wars were done with, he had lost his sense of purpose. Joab wasn’t all that interested in n...

Sons of the Flaming Throne 2 – Ch. 9 | KT OLLA

ABISHUM wasn’t done speaking. So she picked up on the matter as things were bound to change. She spoke: ‘See, it was a bedroom cry for Aleph. But not until the day things were shoved in her face… ‘And that day she gave up on hoping! ‘Well, what Aleph thought was the reason why Beth couldn’t marry, was different from what it was with people. ‘She used to think it was because there was no man in her house to ask the daughter from. As is our customary practice in Israel.  ‘But when a drunken man shoved it in her face one night, it hurt her too much what people say. ‘“No one will marry your daughter, woman! Why will anyone do? When death hides in her bosom like it hid in yours. Or why did your husband die? ‘“Look, if you don’t know it – your family is cursed! You only have one child in a nation of plenty. ‘“God has prospered Israel with many children like the sea sand. But what do your family bear? Only one! ‘“So, who will want your cursed daughter for his son to love? You really don’t...

Sons Of The Flaming Throne – Ch.50 (Final Episode) | KT OLLA

PRINCE S’alom was beaten once; and then a second time. It was by two things that baffle the mind. For not only was he shocked that his men kept running for their lives. As they fled when they were chased past; and he wished they could stop to help. But now he was even more dazed when he saw that his father’s men left him hanging. He realized that those boys weren’t sent to kill him. Yes, the Third One knew this from the start. That if David had wanted him dead, he’d have been long dead and buried. Now it was clear that he’d been taking advantage of the just man’s goodwill. And this he knew himself. The prince faced this truth; so it knocked him off that David was still being kind. No, he’d so taken things for granted. Therefore, it happened that one of the chasers who ran past returned to find Joab when he saw the prince hanging. He told the captain what he saw and assured him the prince wasn’t dead. Now when the general saw that the boy didn’t kill him, he went all mad and furious. ‘W...
