THE PASTOR
EPISODE 1
MY mom has been disturbing me about following her to the church her friend attends, saying that the pastor was a very blessed man of God that performs alot of miracles. I’m not the miracle centre going type but my mom disturbed me alot and I had to oblige. Sorry for not introducing my self earlier. I’m shalom a 21 year old graduate, an entrepreneur and a story writer. I was well to do and had no problems so I saw no reason to go to such churches but my mom won’t listen.
I went to the church the following Sunday and I was amazed at the things I saw. The pastor was really powerful as he cast out demons, healed the sick and even raised the dead. I was so so amazed not only by the miracles but his manliness. He was so handsome and I wondered why he choose to he a pastor but I could see how God is using him. After church service and all the miracles my mom and I went to stand in the queue to see him on a one on one encounter.
Me and my mom had to stand for hours since we weren’t only the ones who needed to see the pastor. Well I didn’t want to meet him but my mom insisted because she was told he could tell the future and she wanted him to tell us how my future would be like. When it got to our turn we went into the pastor’s office. It was like every other office so I was calm. Immediately I greeted him he called me by my name. I was surprised to how he knew but he just said the holy spirit told him.
My mom told him our reason for coming to see him and he held my hand and wanted to say a prayer but stopped for some reasons I couldn’t understand he told my mom to go out that there’s something he saw and he wanted to pray against it with me one on one. My mom immediately went out without asking any questions I guess she really trusted the pastor but who wouldn’t trust a man of God.
Shalom I can see darkness around you, I can see tears and agony. I can sense depression and restlessness around you. I was shocked not only shocked but surprised. Just my first day seeing him and he could sense all that, I didn’t believe him any bit and all my theories about him being genuine flew out the window but his next sentence made me rethink.
Those men you slept with, one of them took away your destiny he said. I looked at him and still didn’t understand him, who told him I slept with anyone. The last time I had s*x was around. …. He cut me off as he continiwhat I thought in my mind. The last time you had s*x was when you were in year one right. You gave your virginity to your first boyfriend when you were in year one but he was a final year student and after his convocation he broke up with you and you never saw him again till date. You went to the club and had a one night stand because you were angry and that was the last time you had s*x right.
I just kept looking at him like he was a ghost. How did he know all this things. I never told anyone about this not even my best friend Janet. I was so ashamed of myself because I let myself be fooled by my ex boyfriend. Janet warned me about dating a final year student as I was just in my first year but I didn’t listen because I thought I had found true love. But after he graduated he sent a text message saying it was over and I never saw him again till date.
The pastor asked if I was still doubting him and said I w should should tell him if he is lying or saying the truth. I told him he was saying the truth then he continued. He said that the guy I had a night stand with took my destiny and we had to restore it now because if we stayed longer then it would be too late.
He also said what would happen to me was that I would never get married or bare children if I ever get married. That my businesses wouldn’t prosper and I would make nothing out of life. That we had to remove the evil seed he planted in me.
At this point I was very scared,I asked him what I was gonna do to restore it and he said the same way it was taken was the same way we we’re gonna restore it. At first I didn’t understand but when I understood what he meant I was shocked. How could he say something like that. He said we needed to involve my mom as she was the one that brought me but I wasn’t ready to tell anyone especially not my mom.
I agreed to what he said but he said I should come back the next day for the healings and spiritual cleasening …
I came out of his office after he had a prayer with me. My mom asked what he saw and said and i told her it was just a little thing that he said I should come for cleansing tomorrow. My mom was so happy that I came to meet the man of God at least I would be able to find a husband after this. I wondered when s*x was a way of purification in as much as I didn’t want to I had this belief that he was right and he was genuine. If he wasn’t then how did he know all that about me………
