659 Words
Sonia trekked to church,she got to church and entered the building, and saw Pastor Lucky praying at the altar. She sat down on a plastic chair and waited for him to finish praying. When he finished his prayers, he got up from the pulpit and approached her.
Sonia stood up and greeted humbly, "Good morning, Pastor."
"Good morning, Sonia. How are you doing?" Pastor Lucky asked.
"I'm fine, sir. I'm here because of my mother. She has been begging on the street, which isn't right. Whenever she promises to stop, she goes back to beg the next day," Sonia explained.
"Seriously?" Pastor Lucky asked in amazement.
"Yes, sir," Sonia replied.
"Let's pray together," Pastor Lucky suggested.
"Okay, sir," Sonia agreed.
Pastor Lucky and Sonia joined hands and prayed for a few minutes. Then, the pastor opened his eyes and announced,"Sonia, I've received a revelation about your mother problem. It's connected to your neighbor. God showed me that she is a dark and troublesome woman."
Sonia thought for a moment, wondering which of her neighbors fit that description. Then, she realized it was Mrs Brenda.
"Oh, Pastor, I think I know the woman you're talking about. What has she done?" Sonia asked.
"She visited a herbalist and obtained a charm that's causing your mother to beg. She is jealous of your mother," Pastor Lucky revealed.
Sonia was astonished. "Pastor, are you sure?"
"Yes, my daughter, I'm certain. She's the reason your mother is begging today," Pastor Lucky confirmed.
"What can I do to help my mother to stop begging?" Sonia asked.
"You and your mother must pray together at midnight for two nights. Have her apply anointing oil to her hands and pray fervently. She will be delivered," Pastor Lucky instructed.
"Okay, thank you, Pastor. I'll do that," Sonia replied.
"You're welcome, my child," Pastor Lucky said.
"Thank you again, Pastor. I'll leave now," Sonia said.
"Send my regards to your mother," Pastor Lucky said.
"I will, sir," Sonia replied and walked away
As Sonia walked home, her pastor words kept echoing in her mind. She couldn't believe that Mrs Brenda was behind her mother begging. Then Sonia sighted her mother begging, she rushed to her and stopped her. "Mummy, let's go home," Sonia said, and dragged her mother away.
When they arrived home, they saw Mrs Brenda hanging clothes outside. Sonia glared at her and said, "Evil woman!"
"Sonia, why did you call mummy Michael an evil woman?"Mrs Justina asked
"Mummy, let's go inside, and you'll understand more."Sonia replied
They entered the house and sat on the couch in the sitting room
"Sonia, why did you insult mummy Michael?"Mrs Justina asked again
"Mummy, she is the reason you're begging on the street."Sonia explained
Mrs Justina was confused. "How?"she asked
"Mum, you won't understand because you're under a spell. I just returned from church, and Pastor Lucky instructed us to pray together for two nights, with you applying anointing oil to your hands."Sonia replied,
"What did you tell him before he said we should pray?"Mrs Justina asked
"Mum, let's just start the prayer today, and you'll be free."Sonia replied
"Free from what?" Mrs Justina asked.
"Free from b*****e. Like I said, Mum, you won't understand until after we're done with our prayers."Sonia answered
Sonia then stood up and went to her room.
In the night, Mrs Justina and Sonia prayed fervently for two hours, casting and binding. After praying, Mrs Justina sat on the bed, breathing heavily.
"I feel light now,While we were praying, it felt like something left my body."Mrs Justina said
Sonia waved her hands in triumph. "Ah, praise the Lord! God, you are wonderful!"
She turned to her mother and said, "Mummy, you are free!In Jesus name"
"Amen," Mrs Justina replied, smiling.
On Monday morning, Sonia walked out of the house and saw Mrs Brenda seated on a bench in the front of her house. She walked up to her with her anger boiling.
