Saved from one-chance gang

Psalm 50 v 15 says, ”And call upon me in the day of trouble, l will deliver you and you shall glorify me.” The above quotation aptly captured the situation my younger brother found himself when I called on the Lord to deliver him.

I am Sister Salome Blessing. My testimony is on behalf of my younger brother who is staying with me. He is new in Lagos; just about two months in my house. On one fateful Friday, he was on his way to work, when someone tapped him on the shoulder and he lost his senses. He later called on me and while we were discussing someone collected the phone from him and said, “they are one-chance people and that my brother was in their company.”

I did not allow him to finish when I shouted that he is a Chosen and that they should leave him alone. The caller requested that I should pay #500,000 as ransom to them before my brother would be released. I replied that one kobo would not be given to them, so, he pleaded that I should pay them #100,000, but I insisted that not a kobo would be given to them. He then said: “Since you said you are a Chosen let me go and tell our Oga,” and the phone cut. In that process, I called one of my pastors to pray for me.

According to my brother, after speaking with me the man came to him to find out the church he attends and he said, Chosen. And immediately he mentioned ‘Chosen,’ there was confusion among them and they began to fight one another. In that process, my brother picked one of their crumpled naira notes on the floor and ran for dear life. He ran for a very long distance to the major road to pick any available commercial vehicle or motorcycle. It was while at the major roadside that he realised that his captors brought him to one of the bushes in Mowe.

Not long, God provided a motorcyclist that lifted him to Ibafo from where he found a sister that gave him N200, which he added to the crumpled #300 note he picked on the ground where his captors kept him. With this, he got to Ikotun and finally home.

Praise the Lord! God of Chosen is so great and may His name be glorified in Jesus’ name.
