WZPMC.
I finally traveled my love, thank youuu. We took off on Friday, around 2pm. We were supposed to take off by 11 am. I also didn't go for posting that morning. I was also early that morning. When we took off, we began to pray and worship you. For a long time, and I was so glad. Btw, God I’m still so quick to shed tears during worship, lol. They shared gala too, my go-to. I was also listening to some songs in the bus. The journey ‘to’ was longer from my POV. We got there late, around 8pm I guess and we joined the meeting towards the end of the session. Afterwards, we had to get our ‘cards’, then find our way to our various rooms. We ate jollof rice that night. I was so glad to see my love, she looked really beautiful and glowy.
I am not feeling too well, it started as a sore throat yesterday. I am strong in the name of Jesus. On Saturday, we had to wake up early. We also had various sessions…
Hi my life, *wink* we have to pick up from where we stopped. On that Friday, I had issues with my room number, two of us from my MSA had the same room number. Thank you I found and held on tightly to my baby, ha-ha. Our rooms were not far from each other. We gisted before we slept that night, and the giggles and the cackles, how I missed them. There were other people in the room, and we were careful not to disturb them. I started reading a book prior to that time, but I have not picked it up since then. We slept, and woke up early to get ready for the day. I think the room was okay, and comfortable to some extent. Then when we were leaving, I thought I forgot my card and had to go back to look for it, I was a bit clumsy, it was inside my bandana, lol. The host chapter were very receptive, and I think they did very well. ♥
We were to fast for the program too, and I think that was great, the worship and praise session, I really liked it. I never want worship sessions to end Lord. Can we just worship from morning till night lol. The theme song was great tooo; “put on the whole armor of God oo, we do not fight against flesh and blood oh. Our battle is supernatural, therefore be supernatural.” That's the only part from the song I can sing. I think they also sang that ‘father of spirits’ song by minister Theophilus Sunday, as a ministration I guess, I was glad. Then there was the long report from prayer and missions departments, subsequently in the morning and afternoon sessions.
We also prayyeed, and prayeedd. I know various people spoke. And you still amaze me. A particular man spoke, whose name I cannot ascertain, lol, you saw what I did there. To be honest with you, you and your people amaze me. I learnt that unbelief is unrighteousness. We were given a jotter and a pen each, and I made sure to write things down during the sessions. As you are, so am I in this world. Did you know that I felt your presence that morning, you were right there with me, I knew it. Even while I did nothing but sat. And you're always wimme, Thank you. Another man spoke later that day about building an excellent spirit. Before then, we had a parallel session, where we had to go to various group, after picking what we wanted from the list of various sessions to join. I joined the “Social Media: A Means To An End” group. I was drawn to that one and I went- we went for that. I learnt that I have to step into the media, not back out from it.
Media is stressful for me, in a way, you know it. We had an academic talk later that day, and I noted the names of certain bible characters that I would have to study. Even heard some of the names for the first time. God, excellence is hard work, to be frank. Especially academic wise abeg. I know it also goes beyond talent, anyways, help me to be excellent. Thank you. We had a lunch break, and we all left to eat. When we returned, we had the last session for the day. It also held an experience I pray I never forget. They presented the magazine, I got mine and haven't even had the time to check it. The missions got to me, and I am so grateful for all you're doing for the sake of your name across all the MSA’s. Thank you.

That night, we had a particular bishop come speak to us. I can see your heart eight billion different ways. He fascinated me, you fascinate me. He caught my attention, with his aura… even though I couldn't really see his face from where I was seating. His voice was distinct and he was articulate, he carried everyone along. He was so good. I like when I don't have to struggle to hear someone speak. Being able to speak well is so underrated. If I don't like how a person speaks or their voice, I would rather not listen to them lol. He spoke on “The Missions of Jesus and His Witnesses”. He mentioned that he was good at storytelling when he was younger, and yes he was, yes he is. I learned a lot from his session, he mentioned how you expect the impact of resurrection, how that the abundant life you've given me should flow beyond me. I haven't mentioned that he made me laugh, he was hilarious! He described your passion so well, my goodness. Thank you Jesus. I have the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead. He was literally describing how you said it is finished with all the emotions, he described your passion first as a story that depicted a couple, where the husband had to go out to fight and was battered, with broken ribs and jaw , bleeding and with broken bones, I could literally picture the words he was saying as in a movie. You really gave gifts to men. The wife was at home and was busy taking a can of malt for each blow he received. The husband crawled home after he won, and handed the cheque he received to his wife, she told him how she had been drinking for each time he seemed to have been defeated, to cheer herself up, she said. when she received the cheque, she said she would have the money in her bank account and the husband agreed. He mentioned how that the sun could not behold it’s creator in that distress so it went to hide and darkness covered the earth. He also mentioned how that Jesus was not roman and was beaten till the soldiers were tired. He also mentioned how in those days, they used sponges to clean up after shitting, and vinegar was used as the antiseptic, and twas the one raised to his mouth when he was thirsty.
The session ended with prayers, some people also received salvation, I was full of gratitude that night. Thank you Jesus really. Thank you for your sacrifice, thank you everything you went through just so I could be yours. I can’t thank you enough. You paid with your precious blood, you took my shame and disgrace, you overcame the grave. You put death to death. He mentioned how he doesn't say that people are late, cause he’s also late in that he died with Christ, and he can never die, something like that. That day, before the evening session. There was a particular lady that anchored the program, and she was phenomenal, you know when we were praying for the ABUAD MSA chapter, and she wept, I could relate so much. And I truly pray that you send revival, and send it as soon as possible. I said Hi to her during the break, cause for some reason, I found her right in front of me, so I shook her hand ha-ha, I think shes from Ebonyi state’s MSA. I liked her.
On Sunday, we started early, they were taking presentations from different MSA’s, we had case studies too. I was in case study 3, and a man that was a muslim anchored for my group, he’s now a christian and I was so glad. You are the joy of the whole world. I think he said he was from Maiduguri, He was quoting the scriptures so well, my heart was leaping, almost bursting with excitement. He was obviously changed from inside out, the word was becoming a part of him, I was so glad I was with him, we talked about a girl that wanted to be a christian but was facing opposition cause she had muslim family members. We also talked about pornography. The session ended with prayers, I was also battling sleep, cause I barely slept. There were song presentations and dramas too. People are very talented. I fell down that morning oh, inside the hall, lol. My footwear cut, so I had to go back to change it. After that session, I hurried to the hostel, to change my clothes and moved to the bus. I didn’t take photos with the sunday wear that morning. I carried my bags to the bus and twas time to leave.
I slept for the larger part of the journey on our way back. It was morning, and I could see different places In Ede, I think that was my first time there, I noticed a lot of muslims and muslim buildings, really. We also passed Redeemers Uni. We were speaking in tongues as we were going back, people on the street might have thought we were drunk? lol. We stopped at Ilesha I guess, to get snacks, and people that were pressed could ease themselves. We passed different places in Ekiti, I saw places like Aramoko, Efon, Ijero, Erio, oke oro I guess, ayegunle. Thank you my love.
I met a girl that I think looked like my fave. She was tall, and beautiful, I had to give her a hug, she was from my baby’s MSA, she introduced me to her, I also met other amazing people like Tani, that took our photos on Saturday, he was also tall. I met Park, during the parallel session. I met Tobi, and some other girls, including Funmi. The experience was in less than 3 days and it was awesome. I loved every bit, apart from the fact that I was stressing my baby. I came back and was in fact on call, I had to eventually return late in the night, stressed. The Western Zonal Prayer and Missions Conference 2025, was awesome! Thank you for CMDA. Bye my love. ♥
