Timisire was growing no doubt, she wanted God so much it was evident. Ever since she started setting her
life on fire, the strange sexual hunger died. She spent more time studying the Scriptures than using her phone.
She joined the Prayer Squad team at the Lighthouse and every midnight, she joined them for the three hours daily prayers. She felt light and joyful.
Her constant Prayer was for God to clean her up and sanctify her body for Him to dwell fully in her.
Two months had passed, and all was well until Timisire became very ill. Doctor Jemima carried out the Pregnancy test and it turned out Positive.
Timisire’s life crashed.
“How could she be Pregnant for Ifeoluwa, Her Helper’s husband?” Timisire thought.
She knew he was the last person she slept with.
“Aunty Favour, Why is God doing this with me?I thought Life with Christ was to be without Crises, Why am I in a new Crises? Why? Why is God Unfair to
me? Is he trying to make me reap the consequences of the sins I have committed in the Past. I have asked
and pleaded for Forgiveness.”
“God is not Punishing you, All things works together for your Good If you believe. Timisire, If you Believe God can do you no wrong, if you trust God enough to Know that God permits darkness to precede Light.
Believe that in this, God will be Glorified.

Rereloluwa never missed two Saturdays in a month.
She didn’t notice Timisire’s Pregnancy until Timisire was four Months gone. She had said suddenly.
“Timisire you are getting more Chubby, Slow down on your eating.”Madam Favour knew the Time was here.
By the next day, which was Sunday, Madam Favour and Timisire decided to pay Rereloluwa a visit. On
getting there, the moment Ifeoluwa saw her, He was very scared, Sweat broke out on his forehead.
Immediately, he said he was going out for a short walk.
“Please can you just give us fifteen Minutes” Madam Favour pleaded.
Ifeoluwa sat reluctantly.
“Thank you Sir!” Madam Favour said.
When Rere and her husband were comfortably seated, Madam Favour Spoke…
“I know a girl who was born with so much Glory, shecame from a Polygamous home. On the day she was named, the priest said all that the baby would become.
This got one of her Stepmothers Angry. The Anger led her into making a charm out of Dog meat for thechild, Ever since that happened the girl started becoming promiscuous; sleeping around .”
Rere and Ife were expectant of where the story was heading to .
“That Girl is Timisire.”
The two were shocked.
“You have remembered what happened to you” Rere asked ignorantly.
Timisire nodded…
“Mrs. Rere, why have you been denying your husband his conjugal right?” Madam Favour asked directly.
She had seen a Flash of it Spiritually.
Rere was shocked…She felt exposed.
“He got me angry because of what he said.”
“And you have been making him suffer for over twoyears?”
“I was hurt by his Words.”
“ In Marriage, hurting each other is not outside the box of marriage, it is normal but what is abnormal is
to hold on to such offenses”
Rere broke into tears. She Loved Ifeoluwa with all her heart, but from the day he had insulted her because of their childlessness, that love had been ripped out of her heart.
“You have to let go and be a beautiful couple.”
“I forgive him”
“Thank you ma, however there is More?”
The atmosphere was thick with tension.
“Like I told you, Timisire was under a spell for many years, unfortunately, her Spell worked on your husband.”
Rere didn’t understand.
“How?’
“There was a moment of sexual misbehavior between Timisire and Mr. Ifeoluwa. Please note it was not the
fault of either of them, they were just used by the devil.”
Rereloluwa screamed and simultaneously blocked her ears. She didn’t want to believe what she was hearing.
She jumped up and held Ifeoluwa by his collar…
“Because, I didn’t let you have your way with me, you raped Timisire?’ Rereloluwa said.
“I didn’t rape her, I don’t know what came over me. I am very sorry Babe!”
Madam Favour went close to her trying to calm her down.
“Leave Me, Madam. Get out of my house!”
“Timisire, I took you as my own child, I took you in, and you turned against me. Get out of here”
“Madam, we will get out, but one thing you need to know is that in Life’s disappointment God can still
make it an appointment with destiny. Timisire is already with Child for your husband, and we have spoken at length, Timisire is ready to give you both
the child on delivery. She will have no claim to the child.”
The entire room went quiet. Ifeoluwa and Rereloluwa looked towards Her Stomach and noticed the bulge.
Rereloluwa sat into the chair crying profusely. She was crying at her failure as a woman. It is now obvious
that Ifeoluwa was not the one with the infertility issue instead, she was the barren woman. Her husband slept with Timisire just once, but he had been sleeping with her for years.
Ifeoluwa forgot his shame, and walked in a daydreaming manner towards Timisire…
“ Timisire , you are carrying my Child?’ he asked with tears of Joy pouring down his face
“No, I am not carrying your Child, I am carrying Aunty Rere’s Child for her.”
Timisire walked to Rereloluwa where she sat…
“Aunty Rere, God knows that you would have been the last person in the World I would have wanted to hurt, you showed me love, you picked me from the gutter
and gave me a good life. I ran away after the act had been committed in the church, I could not dare look you in the face, I could not stand the fact that I had betrayed you even though it was beyond my power.
Aunty Rere, in my twenty years on earth I have slept with over 50 men. That should tell you, this is not something I do for fun, I have been plagued by the
dog Spirit. Though I lived with your Christian Family and was attending service, I was not yet delivered.
When Jesus Called Lazarus from the grave, Lazarus came out but was still bound with the grave clothes. It
was after he got out, that Jesus asked them to remove the grave clothes that was used to bound him. A person can be a Christian and still be bound. That was my case when I was living with you. I was vibrant in church but right there in my room over there, I would
masturbate. So what I had with your husband was not a pleasurable thing, instead it was part of my bondage
phase.
God has decided to loosen my bound by sending me to the Lighthouse. I experienced the deliverance power
of God. For the past four months, my sexuality has become normal, I don’t become raving mad at the sight of men. I am free. I was enjoying my freedom and new life forgetting the former things, but then this blessing popped out of nowhere.
At first I saw it as a curse, but then I inquired of the Lord and He asked
me to give you your child after delivery. I will not claim the child as mine. He/she belongs to you.”
Rereloluwa tears flowed without stopping….
“The child is not mine…tell God to give me Mine”
Rereloluwa said before walking to her room and shutting the door behind her.
