THE POWER OF GOD

 How will you feel to be tormented by a ghost? How will you fel waking up and seeing a ghost in your bed? How will you feel when you wake up, knowing that the dream you had is actually a reality? These are the question Jacinta have been asking in h|r mind everyday, her problem started when she was thirteen years old and her grandmother died. One day, she was in her room when she saw her grandma in the same room with her, she was shocked and about to scream, when her grandma clamps a cold hands over her mouth." Hush my little diamond, grandma is here for you. Do not make any noise, I will be removingy hands slowly alright?

Jacinta nodded and her grandma removed her hand from her mouth." You are dead Jacinta told her. Her grandma laugh oh my little diamond." Actually I'm not dead, but mistaken to be dead.

I saw your body in the morgue.

Yeah you do, and that is the mistake I made and that is why I had to come for you.

What mistake? You are dead, please leave me alone.

Shut up! The questions you will be asking is why can you see me and I can touch you?

How is that even possible ? Jacinta asked.

Well little diamond I belong to a powerful secret coven an when you were born, I had to take you to them for initiation, you are a witch.

No! I'm not. Her grandmother laugh hard, oh little diamond you can never run away from them, soon you will take my place, I was not dead when I was found in my room. I was actually having a meeting  which unfortunately keep me in where I'm today, I will advice you to not make such mistake  that I did. Have a room no one can get access to except you, you will be taking over from me as from today good luck little diamond and with that she disappeared leaving Jacinta cold and in utter shocked.

That was ten years ago, now Jacinta is twenty three years and a strong witch who have everything that life had to offer. She is beautiful, rich and elegant but every night is a torment for her for that is when the ghost appears and that is when she had to serve the coven in anyway they dim fit. She have killed, she have render so many men broken and useless, she have used spiritual means to collect property from wealthy men. Any youngan who approach her run mental in no time. She had no friends and her family is afraid of her since none of them know about their grandma.

Deep down in her heart, Jacinta knew everything is not right she have a good heart and long for happiness too but the society she found herself made her to be evil, she have read about how killing a human being can destroyed a soul, she have also peep into the story of Harry Potter and Voldemort by J.K Rawling and seeing how it all start with killing and how at the end Harry asked him for remorse that it was his only way. She know killing can destroyed the soul which in the long run made so many people have no consciousness. These are things she think about, during the day, for at night she have no will power to overcome the power of the coven. She wondered if her soul is shattered, but she thought a shattered soul will not think of redemption as she is thinking now, will it? She couldn't help but was surprised to see tears flowing from her eyes, she dried her eyes and look about her exotic mansion, with all her wealth she have no one to shared it with and she is always depressed and lonely.

The wealth have never given her any peace of mind or happiness, she have no boyfriend and her family have written her off, what a sad and hopeless life she live on. Will this have to be the kind of life she will live till old age? She stand up and went out, walking aimlessly along the street, just trying to clear her head. While moving without a care where she may end up as she turned a corner along the street, she heard a voice preaching and she stand at the edge of the street to listen.

Dre was sad to see the multitude of people suffering in the street and homeless too, he feel bad because he must have been part of those who caused such suffering , his past life wasn't a good one and he was glad to be a chang man. He is overwhelmed with compassion and try to comfort them in the only way he knows best, by bringing them closer to God.

Brothers and sisters, can I have your attention please? Dre was expectant, and when a few turned his way, he exhale the breath he wasn't aware he was holding. My name is Dre and I'm here to preach the gospel of Jesus to you. Things may seem bad, but you need to trust in him for with God all things are possible.

We are starving and homeless, why border when he has abandoned us? Someone asked and others nodded in agreement.

Now that is not true, God will never abandoned his people, remember the Israelites, he was with them for forty years in the wilderness now hear this song my Don Moen and he sing:

God will make a way

Where there seems to be no way

He will works in a way we cannot see

He will be my guide, hold me closely to his side

With love and strength for each new day

He will make a way.

And where is the way that he has made for us? Is this suffering the way? Someone asked.

No! This is not the way remember "with love and strength for each new day he will make a way". But I can see only hopelessness here, there is no love or the strength to face a new day among you. Come closer to God and let him guide you.

How will he guide us? A man at the back asked 

First you must confessed your sins and be born again.

Do I have to enter my mother womb a second time? Asked a woman.

No! You must be baptized by immersion, in a river or a stream.

Will that make a way for me? Asked a y{ung lady walking by, who have stopped to listen, I worked in a brothel and I have committed adultery and fornication which is against the ten commandments, will I be redeemed?

Dre looks at her" sister there is a song titled All things Are possible" by Women of Faith, it goes like this:

Almighty God

My redeemer

My hiding place

My safe refuge

No other name like Jesus

No power can stand against you

My feet are planted on his rock and i. Will not be shaken.

You may have sins and committed many crimes, but God is merciful and he has given us a second chance through his only begotten son Jesus Christ our Lord that we may be saved, your sins will be forgiven if you give your life to God.

What about murdered ? Asked an old man sitting with his back resting on a wall. At this, Jacinta peekup knowing s he have committed countless murder through her hands and by others, she edge a little closer wanting to hear what this preacher Dre have to say about murdered. She hope s he can be redeemed but she knows her crime is more than what the people are confessing, she held her breath and listened when Dre open his mouth, she snap out of her thought.

Like I said, my name is Dre but I used to be known as  Killer D. At this there was gasps all over and many people were shocked even Jacinta couldn't believe this was the man who bring terror to the people, a man who is reputed to be a water of human flesh, a man who have committed so much sin that it was said he bath in the blood of a new born baby to fortify his power. He show no mercy and kill without a thought she feel hope in her heart knowing if this man can be save she too can.

Dre raised his hands up to silence the crowd that have gathered seem like those walking have stopped to hear what is going on. He turned to them and said my brothers and sisters there is only one power in this life and that is The Power of God, there is no other power than can save you, there is no other power that can give you peace of mind except The Power of God. I was a notorious criminal who have done so much evil that I never deserved to live, but God had a plan for me and today I stand here preaching to you like I said earlier with God all things are possible.

How and what happened to change yoú? A teen asked him.

Well five years ago, I was contact by a coven to eliminate a certain man, turned out this man have been fighting them and winning by saving those they afflicted with all manner of evil at this Jacinta thought take her back and if she is not mistaken, it was her coven, she remembers the frustration of what the man had done to them, so this was why they never heard from the killer again she look at Dre with a new hope.

So this man turned out to be pastor Paul, who pray for me that night and I was baptized the next day, I chose evangelism to spread the good news from town to town and state to state.

Jacinta couldn't hold herself anymore she cried out." I will give my life to Jesus please help me. I have been a member of a powerful coven and I want to start new again.

Dre look at her and asked her to come to him, he told her there is no power except The Power of God  now say this after me:

"I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He died for my sins, and that He rose again from the dead. I now confess Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I surrender my life to Him and choose to follow Him all the days of my life."

After that he told her she must be baptized to be born again. 

And what will happen tonight she asked for the night is when I face them.

And he asked her to rea this :

Psalm 121 is a well-known passage from the Old testament.


"I lift up my eyes to the mountains—

    where does my help come from?

My help comes from the Lord,

    the Maker of heaven and earth.


He will not let your foot slip—

    he who watches over you will not slumber;

indeed, he who watches over Israel

    will neither slumber nor sleep.


The Lord watches over you—

    the Lord is your shade at your right hand;

the sun will not harm you by day,

    nor the moon by night.


The Lord will keep you from all harm—

    he will watch over your life;

the Lord will watch over your coming and going

    both now and forevermore." (Psalm 121, 1-8 Nkjv)

And with that the whole crowd went on their kneels asking to be save and he asked them to pray the lord's prayer:

"Our Father in heaven,

hallowed be your name.

Your kingdom come,

your will be done,

    on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our debts,

    as we also have forgiven our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation,

    but deliver us from evil." (Matthew 6:9-13, ESV)

There was weeping and everyone couldn't hold back the tears of joy of accepting Jesus Christ as their lord and personal saviour. Jacinta went back home with a lighter heart and a joy beyond comprehension, she couldn't stop laughing and crying for her problem have been solve and Jesus have taken away her pains. She vow to start a new life and dedicated her young life preaching the gospel and winning souls for God.
