**DAUGHTERS OF THE SERPENT**
**EPISODE 16**
Fiona was choking on her words as she tried to open her mouth to speak, yet her throat felt tighter anytime she opened her mouth, she looked around and saw the three girls last time, she began praying silently, something came through her as she felt a calmness wrapped around her, she spoke out and began praying, she knelt down and lifted her hands up, the other students were surprised at the sudden outcome. Nevertheless, the students also joined in the prayer including the principal.
“. . . We do not wrestle against flesh and blood but we wrestle against principalities and powers. The Lord called me to liberate this school and I know He will never fail me cause he has never failed me before.” she spoke on as the trio were holding hands and still trying to make her lips sealed, but all they did proved abortive as Fiona still kept praying, the students were still praying when they heard someone shouting “Fire! Fire! My body! It’s hurting me” Gold and her friends screamed at the top of their lungs as they started scratching their bodies, “Fiona stop oh! You are very powerful, please you are killing us.” their voice rang in the air as some students stopped praying, they gave the girls space as they began rolling on the floor screaming and shouting, Mrs. Gold now was shocked beyond measures as she saw the SS2 students on the floor. Fiona, with her eyes still shut kept praying, Gabriel and his three friends also entered serious prayers, then something happened that shocked everyone in the school that day, the other girls who had left the devotion came running back to the devotion hall screaming and shouting on their lungs, everywhere was in chaos as they threw their bodies at the walls.
“Stop it, stop praying. You’re killing us” a girl in JS3 uniform shouted.
Then there was confusion as suddenly all the evil girls turned into a big snake. Every student and teachers ran out of the devotion hall leaving the girls with Fiona, her brother, Moses and the principal who were still praying, the girls turned back to human and suddenly became calm, when some teachers saw this, they walked back in the hall and were soon followed by the students.
Fiona finally stopped praying as she quickly gave a short worship song, when she opened her eyes and saw that the girls that were initiated were many and they were all lying on the cold floor without moving, the teachers and Mrs. Gold saw that they all vomited strange substances.
“Thank you Lord, you alone is powerful. You alone deserve to be praised and adored”, Mrs. Gold proclaimed as she saw what had transpired in their midst.
“The devil is a liar.” a teacher said as he folded his hands round his chest region, the rest nodded and began praising the Lord.
Fiona however stood up and started teaching the congregation about the words of God and invited everyone to come to Christ that very moment.
The girls were now awake as she said those words, all of them were first to knee down before Fiona so she could pray for them.
Meanwhile. . .
“Queen Mother.” Susan called as she arrived at the circle of the serpent panting.
“What is it my daughter” said Jezebel as she appeared.
“That girl has finished us, she has delivered all the Daughters of the great serpent. I managed to escape in time before I could get caught by His flames.” she said.
“My daughter, I felt it and I knew this would happen.”
“But Queen Mother, why didn’t you do anything to stop her.”
“Because she has been chosen by HIM and I can’t do anything to her.”
“What do we do now Queen Mother.”
“Now, you have to leave that school, it’s too hot for you.”
“What about him?” She asked as she pointed at Chibuike who was still chained.
“The great Vampire has a plan for him. That girl thinks she has got us. Even though we lost this battle my daughter, the war has just Begun.”
THE END
Final note:
We cannot afford to be casual about life anymore. Life is spiritual and spiritual warfare is a reality of life. When we take life casually, we end up becoming casualties in life.
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil Walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may Devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6: 10-13
The Great Spiritual War is spiritual— it must be fought in the realm of the spirit by the Spirit and through the weapons of our warfare which “are not carnal.” The two greatest offensive weapons that the Spirit of God has given
to us are the Word and prayer. A mastery of these two will put you on top over every battle of life.
Thank you very much. God bless you. Please remember me in your prayers.
