*HEARING GOD* (II)
_Key Bible Text:_
*And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.*
(John 10:16 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
One day, I left Katsina-Ala to preach in Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria, a journey of about a hundred and twenty kilometres. The transport fare then was four naira. When I left home, all I had was four naira and twenty kobo and I took it all. It is mine to obey, it is his to provide. As I preached the Holy Ghost came down and the young people were filled with the Spirit.
I had not yet a sense of how to return home, and I needed to send my nephew who was living with me to school. The following day, when I was leaving for that meeting, I sent him to my friend's house for him to be taken care of over the weekend; but out there I was stranded.
When I finished preaching, those young people brought me some money. I refused to collect it saying that they should not bother; yet as I was rejecting the money they brought I had no clue of how to get back home. I made a mistake. I did not know through whom God would meet my need that day.
Those young men tried to persuade me to take the money (twelve naira), but I refused. I had an engineer friend living in that town then. Any time I was in town, I went to his house. So on that day I said I would go there and he would meet my need.
"Woe unto him who puts his trust in man".
Unfortunately when I got there, neither he nor his wife was around. The house maid who ought to know me because I was a frequent visitor in that house, stood at the door and said. "When he was going out, he said I should not open the door for anyone"
I said "Don't you know me?" She answered "Sir, I don't want to be rude but I am acting on instruction". In order to show her that I was a very intimate friend, I mentioned their names saying. "But where is Bill, and where is Miriam". She said "They are all out, and they didn't tell me you are coming sir"
And I had not eaten that day. I was not supposed to fast, but there was no food to eat; so I left and said to myself "Well, Dr. Ajonye is there". Then I went to his house only to find the doors locked. Nobody was at home. He had traveled to Sierra Leone.
