I was serving at Enugu state,I went out to get some food items.While coming back around 7:20pm I perceived something bad was going to happen I started jogging on a field which leads to the corpers lodge.Suddenly 3 tall guys in black started running after me.I thought I was in a dream,I screamed the name of Jesus then I fell flat on the ground with my phone in my hands.Thought of loosing my phone was in my head,that was 2006 I foolishly wanted to throw it into a compound near the corpers' lodge but as it fell from my hand one of them picked it and they turned back and started going.Then I realized how God had saved me miraculously.No rape,no dismemberment which was rampant as at then. 1 Like |

kabiyesi01: Goes thus: "How many does one need to narrate? And how many thanks? The death that could have taken one's life, if the only thing it did was to remove one's cap, it calls for serious thanksgiving". Recall Akunyili, the former NAFDAC boss who was very effective at her job. She stepped on many toes but she solidly had OBJ's support. An assassination attempt was made on her life, but the bullet missed her and went thru her gèlè (headgear) instead. Afterwards, OBJ provided for her one massive inpenetrative security details. That is a literal example of the translation up there. |

2016, I was going to meet my friend in Sagamu from Ibadan. The plan was for him to pick me up at Sagamu exchange/Sagamu junction along Lagos - Ibadan express. I got to the junction around 7:30pm...it was already dark. I saw this family of like 5 that dropped from another bus anxious to cross the express... I remember the father shouting to his wife and kids, Go! As they ran to cross the road I was like, why is this man being overly dramatic. I turned backing the express to pee in the bush. As I was peeing, I heard footsteps behind me. Before I could turn, there was a shining stainless steel machete by my neck. Someone said, if you make any move I will cut your neck. Next thing, I felt hands in my pockets... They were about 4 of them, apart from the guy holding the machete to my neck. I could see they were teens... Like 17-19, and for a second I thought to fight them. But when I remembered they had a machete to my throat, and the fact that I didn't even know the area... They could be more in the Bush, I just let them rob me. As they were going through my pockets, I was thinking of what they would do when they were done. There have been stories of armed robbers killing victims just for the fun of it. My heart started beating fast. But when they were done the leader removed the machete from my neck and asked me to go. I was walking away when he hit me at the back of the head with the flat side of the machete and shouted, "run!" Mehn! If you see how I ran ehn. I ran up the bridge that leads to the road going to Sagamu on the other side of the express. I was lucky to get a car stop to pick me up as I had no money on me. (I had tried to flag down a couple of cars, but they kept zooming off). Also, I was also lucky that I had my ATM in the breast pocket of my shirt. One of them had struggled with it, but I guess when he didn't feel a bulge there, he just left the pocket. Phone gone, wallet gun with important stuffs in it apart from money... But I thank God for life. 5 Likes |

1. Years back Jesus Christ saved me from an accident that would have claimed my life. I walked across a very busy express road which is opposite UNIBEN in Ugbowo, Benin City, I was completely absent-minded while walking across without checking for moving vehicles on the road , was almost knocked down by a speeding vehicle. But Jesus Christ intervened and saved me. 2. Years back, travelling from Warri to Sapele in my car, I was the driver. In it also were my wife`s in-law sitting at the front, at the back seat were my wife, her heavily pregnant elder sister, her younger sister, my 7 months old daughter and 2 years old son. On high speed, I drove into a deep pot hole which resulted in lost of control of the car. Finally, it hit the fence of a filling station and a heap of sand and summersaulted once. I came out of the window, same for others. No injury for me, the person at the front and my son, but little injuries for the others. It really pays to serve Jesus Christ, who saved us. 3 Likes 1 Share |

worried222: It's all true bro. Till today, I used to get scared when ever I'm about to cross a train track. Sometimes before crossing I do ask people if a train will be passing soon just make sure I'm not being absent minded again lol. Yes I'm a practicing Christian to the glory of God. |
