Robbed

,

I know the devil loves being reminded of his status, and I have no problem doing that for him.
He has been a loser for over 2000 years, he’s still a loser and he will always be loser till eternity. He tried!!!!! BUT GOD!
He can only try, but victory will always be mine as long as I have CHRIST JESUS, Who stays winning!

I got robbed at gun point last Friday morning just at my bus stop, sometime around 6am. I was waiting for a bike to take me to another bus stop where I’d get a bus going to the park. You may be wondering why I’d leave home at 6:00 in the morning, I had to be at Ekiti state that day.
I saw a bike coming slowly towards me, so I assumed the bike man wanted to drop a passenger, so I called out to the bike man(they were beside me already), so the guy “supposed passenger” alighted and stood, while the other guy riding the bike(let’s refer to him as the getaway driver) looked away when I asked if he was going to the bus stop.

Before I knew it, the guy that alighted from the bike started dragging my handbag with me. Turning to look at him, he pointed a gun at me.
WHAT!!!!!! 

Almost immediately, I started shouting Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Something told me the gun wasn’t real, but common sense also told me not to “test the spirit” LOL.
The guy kept telling me to let go of my handbag, he wasn’t audible though, probably to conceal his voice but I refused (girl, why would you refuse to give him the bag with a gun pointed at your head!?!? You wanna die?? Well, I guess my focus was on Jesus and not death at that particular time, remember all I was saying was Jesus!). I told him to take the bag containing the foodstuffs instead(I was going to drop off the food stuffs for my brothers at their school), the guy with the gun said no (the getaway driver was parked about 10ft from where the whole drama was going on). When I bent(I don’t know why I did), I guess that was when he saw my purse, so he took it with my phone(unknown to me then). I tried following the bike🙈, I felt it wasn’t worth it, so I let go. I made sure I kept calling Jesus to his face till they left on the bike.

I was shouting the name of Jesus because somewhere inside of me, I was hoping some kinda miracle will happen. But the miracle didn’t happen right there, it’s still happening right now.

I am alive, I was not shot, I was not raped, I have no injury, and most importantly, those guys got to hear the name of Jesus repeatedly! So, I’m certain that a seed has been sown in their hearts and the Name of Jesus will keep resounding in their hearts. 😃
My prayer ever since they left has been that the Name of Jesus will work wonders in their lives and bring them to the knowledge of God’s love and forgiveness for them. The devil has lost their souls! That I’m sure of!
That was my prayer for them on my way back home, my prayer while I was at home, my prayer throughout the 5hrs I was on the road to Ekiti state.

(Wait, WHAT!!! You still traveled??? I would have been too shocked and too scared to leave my house for a whole month!!! Lool Yes, I did! I had money at home enough to take me to Ekiti. There was no way I was gonna let the devil win, nope!), and my prayer right now!
I’d be honest with you guys, the shock didn’t set in until I was in the bus to Ekiti state, I was literally shaking in the bus, had to hug myself for long and continually asked God if it was in His plan for me to travel that day. He spoke me to my heart and that calmed me till I got to Ekiti state. He said “I am with you” That did it for me! Before I left home after the incident, my dad prayed for me, my kid sis prayed for me and my friend Omowunmi, also prayed for me and reminded me that I am God’s responsibility and He’s got me. God being faithful, when I told my friend, Omoyeni about the whole thing, (I was already in Ekiti), she told me she led her family’s devotion that morning and felt led to pray for protection against thieves. See God’s amazing, right?

Just so you know guys, My stupid dog was following me. (He loves escorting us any time we leave the house) Only for me to see that the dog stayed back and was looking😂😂 the entire time! When we were going back home, he tried staying close to me, see bribery. LOL. My dog didn’t bark, not once people, not once! Silly dog. 

PS: The enemy of the mind asked me where God was when the whole thing happened, immediately I remembered the only name that was persistent at that time was JESUS JESUS JESUS!
The people said they came out when they heard someone shouting Jesus!

Since Friday till now, my mind keeps replaying the whole scenario with different story line, and all I can say right now is that God will always remain faithful, nothing can change that, He’ll always be there for me and I am thankful for life!

PS again: Remember, Romans 8:28? About all things working together for good? I can’t wait to know the beautiful ministry or story or event or happening or blessing God will bring out from this!😀
I don’t have a new phone yet, I don’t have my money back, but I still have my JOY!!!!

If all I say is JESUS! That’s more than enough!🤗🤗🤗
