“ MY FATHER’S FARMLAND”

Meanwhile, Sukki placed a call to Pastor Ayo informing him about what was happening, he heard little Iyanuoluwa crying in the background.

Iyanuoluwa was the miracle baby God had given Pastor Ayo and his wife, Mrs Banke after 30 years in marriage. It was shortly after he returned back for the Spiritual Mentoring that Pastor Mrs Banke got pregnant after 29 years in marriage.

“ Daddy, I want you to join me in prayers for…” He narrated all that happened in the past few hours.

Pastor Mrs Banke on hearing fell down before the Lord, praying for Ola…She and Ola had lost contact and she had not heard from her. She had only seen her and her siblings on T.V. She had thanked God for their lives on how God had helped them, especially when Oba became Governor of their state. She didn’t try to re-establish a relationship with them as she felt, she didn’t add anything to their lives the time she had the opportunity to do so…

Now was the time, she felt she could do something, she felt the trio could not just end their lives that way considering their earliest struggles in life. Pastor Mrs Banke posted on the church’s social media page asking people to intercede for Oba and Ola as it had been officially confirmed Ope ( s€xy Sasha) was dead.

Different voices were raised up at the same time…
Pastor Ayo, Mrs Banke, Sukki, Austin, Micheal, Pastors, Sunmibare & her siblings, Pastor Ayo’s church members were raising their voices on behalf of Kikiolaoluwa in particular.

Pelumi( Oba’s wife), her parents, her children and the men and women of God who had ever eaten from Oba’s table courtesy of Pelumi’s seed sowing, all raised their voices in intercession for Oba…

*************
At the same time, on the farmland, “the big tree” on Oba’s farm was shaking, bowing and shouting Mercy…This was because the writer of the story, which Oba and Pelumi had donated towards making her story into a movie, posted on her social media page ..

“Please help raise a voice for the Executive producer of our recent movie, he is presently in coma. If that movie ever blessed you, just take a minute and join us to cry unto the Lord for Mercy…”
Thousands of people raised up prayers in response to the post…

As FATHER was about to declare His judgement…Thousands of voices that sounded harmoniously like a choir kept shouting “ MERCY FATHER” on behalf of Oba and Ola…

Oba and Ola saw as different people raised their voices on their behalf, especially Sukki. Ola wept putting the blame on herself for her selfishness and lack of forgiveness…

FATHER was moved by the voices, but HIS mind was made up, He wanted to transfer Ola’s wealth to someone else.

He wanted to give the wealth to someone who could use the money to bless lives… FATHER gave wealth to people he trusted to use it for the less privileged, widows, orphans and most importantly for His House and all that had to do with Evangelism.

Ola realized what FATHER was about to do, by virtue of her selfishness, she had acted wickedly to people. She didn’t give people money, She believed anyone who didn’t have money was lazy. FATHER was about to take her wealth and give it to a righteous person, no wonder the Bible made it clear that…

“ Good people leave an inheritance to their grandchildren, but the sinner’s wealth passes to the godly.” Proverbs 13:24

As Ola watched, she remembered a message one of her pastors had preached in a church service which she felt the pastor was trying to push them to drop their money…

“ We must have deep passion for the things of God, please note that God has blessed you, for the good of the house of God…God made Joseph a Vice President In Egypt, to go ahead of the Israelites so that he will be able to help the children of God during the famine. It was through Joseph’s presence in Egypt that the Children of God were given the best place in the land…You have been blessed to be a blessing to the body of Christ, Your talent, your money and position is for the good of the body of Christ…”

Ola remembered turning her deaf ear to the rest of the sermon… But at that moment she realized the man was right, despite Joseph suffering as she did, he still forgave his brothers and blessed people.

FATHER must have read her thoughts as he said…
“ If there is anyone I am going to show Mercy to, it will be to Oba, for the sake of His wife who has done a lot of good to the body of Christ with Her prosperity…”

Oba knelt down thankfully as He knew the political evil he had done did not make Him qualify for Mercy, but Pelumi’s influence in his life was about to earn him another chance in life…

“But what about Ola?” He reasoned quietly as he could not bear to look FATHER in the eye…

He had lost one sister, couldn’t God have mercy on Ola, though she was the one who landed them in this mess because of her unforgiveness…Oba reasoned in tears as he heard…

“ This is my judgement…..” FATHER said with a tone of finality in His voice
