MY FATHERS FARMLAND Episode 27
Let’s take a look at Ola’s farm, while you think over what your judgement should be…” FATHER said to Oba as Ola followed after HIM…
Ola’s Land was so large, and thankfully, she didn’t have blood on her land, rather her farm had a lot of rotten fruits. A lot of fruits were overripe and had fallen to the ground thereby causing rottenness.
“Ola, you sowed the seeds of hard work and prayer for fruitfulness on your farm, and you got a bountiful harvest, but you have done what has made your farmland a rotten place…”
Ola looked on, wondering what the rottenness meant, as she had tried to live a good life.
“You amassed wealth for yourself and never gave out. Your crops, your fruits were multiplying, but you didn’t give out… Your reason was simple! You felt you had suffered greatly while growing up and you didn’t want to become poor again. But Kikiolaoluwa, now that you have left the earth, won’t someone else take over your position and enjoy your wealth?
Your land kept producing unending harvest, but you didn’t give out the fruits. Don’t you think I should take this farmland from you and give it to someone worthy, someone who will be able to help some of my other farmers who may not have seeds to sow on their lands?
Kikiolaoluwa, your being blessed was for you to a blessing to others, to my work and my workers, but your case was like that of a nanny who was given food for herself and the children, but ended up starving the children, while eating the food all alone, What do you think should be done to the Nanny…” Father said
Ola knew Father was right, She had attended a lot of finance and money management training seminars, that had made her very disciplined when it came to giving out her money. That discipline was definitely selfishness in disguise.
“All the pains, injuries you went through, Kikiolaoluwa, I permitted you to go through those phases to create in you an understanding of what other less privileged farmers were going through.
Like I told you earlier, injuries are not out of the ordinary for farmers. I permitted the rape injury so you could feel, understand and cater for those who might have been raped, I permitted the pregnancy so that you could feel the pain of teenage single mothers. I was expecting that as you grew financially, you would build homes for the less privileged people, but you were less concerned about them.
Kikiolaoluwa, I permitted you to be dumb for a short while, with the high expectations that when your wealth comes, you will care for the less privileged with disabilities.
I made you and your siblings go through financial hardship and educational hardship, so that when the harvest I had prepared for you and your siblings manifested, you would be able to help the less privilege who had financial issues and educational issues.
Rather, Ola You never helped people despite the compassionate heart I made you have, you have been buying properties, saving your money, and getting the public recognition as the 7th Richest woman in Nigeria, who cannot boast of blessing people.
Your Staff don’t enjoy the privilege of the wealth you have, your church doesn’t, and other workers in my farmland…
Ola, who is worse?
Ola, the orphan who God took from a low position and raised her up to the level of becoming a blessing to nations, but unfortunately, she blessed nobody other than her family and few friends, thereby making her farmland rotten littered with rotten overripe fruits
Or
Sunkanmi who despite having a rough farmland still tried to bless people with the blessings he was blessed with. Sunkanmi had 250 students on scholarship, 80 widows he fed every month, he was a regular giver to the things of God…He did this even when he was ignorantly living in Sin. After his genuine repentance and his once rotten land had been cleared, he stil continued in the act of blessing people…
So, Answer me, who is worse?… Kikiolaoluwa who is more of a sinner?

Ola bowed her head in shame, not knowing what to do, it was evident, Sukki was more righteous than she was…
“You humans judge fellow humans by what you can see, but there is much more than what you see,” FATHER said as Ola found herself in front of Sukki’s farm.
The land was barren but there was an ancient tree nearby that had over 100 roots that went into different farmlands. One of the roots had found its way into Sukki’s farm. The root in itself was big…
“This was Sunkanmi’s case when he was born. His farmland already had an ancient root of Sexual Immorality growing on it. His Ancestors had a strong covenant with the marine powers. One of his Forefathers had a mermaid who he entered a covenant with…
FATHER held Ola’s hands and together, they saw a man from a very distant time in the past when men wore leaves as clothes… he sat with a beautiful Lady beside a stream. They spoke in a language Ola had never heard before, but Ola was able to understand the language because she suddenly began to hear the conversation in English…
“How come you have not told me where you are from? We only meet by the stream, and ever since I met you, I notice good things have been happening to me. Whenever we meet by the stream I catch more fishes. It shows me you will be a good wife that will bring me prosperity, should you agree to marry me.”
“You can’t marry me…My kind cannot marry your kind”
“Your kind? What village do you come from”
“I am a mermaid, down here is my home”
“You are joking”
The lady’s feet changed into a mermaid’s tail… The male lover jumped back. His female lover transformed back…
“I knew you were going to run away from me…You never loved me in the first place” the female lover said
The male lover dropped his fishing net and ran very far away from her, only for her to show up ahead of him…
“You don’t love me anymore?’
“Please, let me be, I am no more interested!’
“Never, you can never say that, I have loved you, and you must love me in return, I have made you prosperous.”
The Scenario cleared away immediately and FATHER kept speaking…
“The marine spirit was not ready to let go of him, you know some of the treacherous workers that were sent out of my farmland established thrones for themselves in places, one of those domains is the water, some of them started living in the waters. The female lover was one of the treacherous beings. Like her, the treacherous beings take up the form of humans to get the attention of humans and form covenants with them…
FATHER took Ola to another place, this time around, a man dressed as a herbalist carrying a huge sacrifice is speaking to the mermaid Spirit by her Stream. The male lover had been carried on a bamboo made stretcher, he looked very ill…
“The only way he can be healed is for him to get married to me and throughout his lifetime, he must always come to the stream to make love to me once every 5 days. The day he misses it, the sickness will return. Secondly, his children and generations unborn must also be married to me. It is a covenant that must never be broken…or else this sickness will not depart from him and his generation”
The Mermaid said and when the lover nodded in agreement, she cut the lover’s wrist and licked the blood…
“As long as blood flows in you and that of your lineage, you and your generation are bound to me.” The mermaid said.
Father and Ola returned to Sukki’s land.
“That was the kind of root that Sunkanmi met planted on his farmland before he was given birth to, everyone in his lineage have serious issues with perverseness. Sunkanmi grew up with this innate longing for sex every 5 days, though he was a gift from me to his mother, but the root on his farmland had to be uprooted before he could fulfil the destiny I had for him.
You were meant to be his road to freedom. Through you, I made him get connected to Ayowale. I delayed Ayowale and Banke’s childbearing so they could have time to help Sukki spiritually.
Ayowale had started uprooting out the evil weeds in Sunkanmi’s life, he had not uprooted the big ancient root of sexual perverseness before he ran away from Ayo”…
As FATHER was speaking, Ola stood there watching everything play out, what was happening was just like how the Bible stated that Whatever God said, He saw it. As father kept talking, Ola Saw Sukki’s farmland with a lot of rottenness on it and the big ancient root was still present.
Ola saw Pastor Ayo uprooting out things from Sukki’s land, he was clearing the rottenness from the land, but as he was approaching the big root, Mrs Banke appeared with Ola on the farm. Ola on seeing Sukki started eyeing him maliciously. Ola made Mrs Banke stop her husband from pulling out the big ancient root.”.
The scenario cleared away…
Ola looked at Father and with regrets in her eyes, she placed her hands over her head, as she realized Sukki’s promiscuity was as a result of his ancestral evil bondage that Pastor Ayo should have uprooted from his life before he ran away, he was also a victim like she was… His Ancestors had also raped him of a good life…

.
Ola watched on in regret as another scenario played out in front of her.
After Ola had influenced Pastor Ayo’s exit from Sukki’s land, Sukki sat helplessly on his farm.
While sitting down very confused, Another farmer walked up to him, telling him he could continue farming without uprooting the ancient root.
Ola watched as Sukki started planting on the rottenness and not regarding the big root. The root kept getting bigger and bigger. The rottenness on the ground increasing as well.
Sukki started planting regardless of the big root.
At a point, the Big root that had taken the form of a big tree crushed all the crops Sukki had been planting…
Ola wept sore as FATHER kept watching her… She saw what her unforgiveness had caused another human being.
She knew she was the cause of Sukki’s fornication even as a pastor.
He ought to have had his deliverance and the purging of his land, as soon as he had met Christ. Pastor Ayo would have helped him to pull out the big root from his land… That must have been Pastor Ayo’s Assignment in his life, but unfortunately, he did not fulfil that assignment…
“Well, he did…” FATHER said as he obviously had been listening to Ola’s thoughts…
“What Banke didn’t know was that Sunkanmi’s deliverance had a lot to do with her conception. My plan was for Ayo and Banke to help Sunkanmi clean his land before they could rest in their farm, but since they had not completed that task they had to wait for another 20 years before they had the opportunity of meeting Sunkanmi Again….
“ Mrs Banke’s infertility had something to do with Sukanmi’s salvation?” Ola wondered silently as she was seeing God for who He was… He was a divine strategist, a deep God, who is too wise to be completely understood…
Meanwhile, Austin had driven down to Sunkanmi’s house. He had been calling Pastor Sunkanmi’s phone for over an hour and he refused answering the call.
Sexy Sasha’s death had raised different eyebrows and knowing who his Pastor was, he knew Pastor Sunkanmi would be disturbed.
Sukki had met Austin in the Church he had joined after leaving Pastor Ayo, and they had become best of friends.
Austin respected Sukki because he knew God’s hand was upon him. When Sukki had pulled out to start his ministry, he had followed him willingly.
He and Sukki had relocated to Las Vegas to start the ministry. They had pulled a lot of crowd as the gospel they were preaching was a gospel that gave allowance for people to continue their sinful lifestyle. He and Sukki were deeply involved in all forms of immorality until Sukki had received a call from a Nigerian Number.
That Day, he and Sukki had been drinking alcohol in Sukki’s house after Sunday service. Sukki’s phone rang and on answering the call, the caller identified himself, Sukki’s countenance changed…He stayed silent on the phone for 15 minutes only saying “Yes Sir, Yes sir.”
After a while, he burst into tears….
After Sukki dropped the call, Austin kept asking who was that and what was wrong…
All he said was…
“Austin, we have missed it!”.
Sukki knew who was knocking. He had been lying on the floor weeping uncontrollably for over an hour, asking God for Mercy…He stood up to open his door.
On seeing Sukki’s swollen red eyes, Austin knew his friend and pastor must have been crying before the Lord.
“I knew it”
“Do I have a choice?”
“You know it’s not your fault, some of these celebrities think since they have a large following they can run their mouths against God’s Anointed”
“She was only trying to air her feelings and warn her followers from following the wrong guy!’
“Is she God?”
“I actually raped and got her twin sister pregnant 25 years ago!’
Äustin froze …
“So you see why this is on me?” Sukki said as Austin relaxed into the chair he was sitting on…
“Nemesis had a way of catching up with people” Austin reasoned bitterly.

Pastor Ayo was the one who called Sukki 4 years earlier when his ministry was making waves in Las vegas leading people astray.
Pastor Ayo and his wife had just celebrated 28 years wedding anniversary.
After he retired to his room that night, he had wept sore before the Lord…
“Father, I have never questioned you for not blessing my home with children, as I kept encouraging myself that Your time is the best, but father, today I saw my cousin’s daughter, she is 27 years old and has three children already… My cousin is now a grandfather while I don’t even have a child of my own…My Father! is it your will for me not to have children…?” Pastor Ayo asked soaking his bed with tears
“You can’t move to a new class, if you failed the previous one, you cannot have children of yours until you have raised the child I committed to you”. FATHER said
“The child? Father, I have over 12 orphans leaving with me as we speak!” Pastor Ayo answered cautiously for fear of offending God…
“ I know, but you lost a very important one 21 years ago. I gave you a battered son to help nurture, but you lost him. Since you and your wife failed in nurturing that one for me, I can’t entrust a bigger destiny into your hands. He is lost and until you find him and raise him up for me, then will I give you the child you desire…” Pastor Ayo heard the Lord speak to him.
Sukki’s image flashed through his mind, but confusion set in, as Pastor Ayo had been seeing Sukki online. He had seen that he was already a pastor in Las Vegas and that had been a great consolation for him and his wife, but here was God telling him, he was lost.
“ My Father, the only person that fits this description is Bro Sunkanmi who graciously is now a servant of God, I can’t remember any other child you gave me that is lost…”
“ Go and listen to his messages” Pastor Ayo had heard the Lord say to him on a final note. He heard no more that night.
Pastor Ayo had picked up his mini-laptop immediately. He searched online for Sukki’s messages. He had only listened to 3 of his messages when he knew what God was saying…
Pastor Ayo saw that Sunkanmi was a half-baked minister.
He knew he had to do something about Sunkanmi, but he understood trying to correct a grown-up child would not be easy.
He prayed and fasted for 7 days asking the Lord to prepare Sunkanmi’s heart ahead. He was able to get his personal contact and after Sunday service, he reached out to him…
“ Good Afternoon, Pastor Sunkanmi Emmanuel, I am Pastor Ayo who led you to Christ about 21 years ago…”
“ Yes Sir”
“Ok Sir, I thank God for what God has been doing with you, but the Lord told me, there are certain things that need to be uprooted out of your life sir. As we speak, the Lord is telling me, you are smoking and drinking, which should not be so, Because once we are in Christ, there are certain things that we need to drop, Colossians 3:5-9 tells us the deep truths that the devil hides from us… I am reading from my Bible, it reads…
“ Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.
Verse 7 which is where you must have missed it states “ You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived.
Verse 8 gives the command “ But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.
Verse 9 reads “Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices”
Verse 10 reads “ and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.”
Pastor Sunkanmi Emmanuel, a new man in Christ can not be a fornicator on the side, you can not be comfortable committing the sin you used to commit when you were the Old you…
Ultimately, at the end of this journey on earth where we are all strangers, the gate of the Lord will be opened and only the righteous will walk through the gate to be with the Lord.., Psalm 118:20…Only the righteous Bro Sunkanmi, Only the righteous will enter through the gate of the Lord…” Pastor Ayo had said
At that point, Sunkanmi had started crying… All the while, he knew his brand of Christianity was not 100% perfect but he couldn’t help the lust in him, and as a way of feeding his lust, he permitted his members to live their lives carelessly, with the teaching that Grace covers all..
“Pastor Sunkanmi, I will leave you to think about all that I have discussed with you, but should you want to speak to me, you can reach me on this same line…”
After Pastor Ayo dropped, Sukki had looked Austin in the eye after Austin asked why the tears, he told Austin…
“ Austin, we have missed it…”
“ How? what?”
Sukki had returned Pastor Ayo’s call the next day. He opened up his struggles and Pastor Ayo wasn’t selfish with his words…
“An untrained teacher can not produce trained students, Pastor Sunkanmi, You are a doctor that needs treatment, who is trying to treat sick patients, You need time away from your flock, so you can get things right…”
Sukki had returned to Nigeria the week After, Pastor Ayo and Mrs Banke received him well. The first night they had a vigil, the presence of God came down heavily and Sukki was slain in the HolyGhost. The Spirit of God came upon him and he stayed on the same spot for 3 hours crying and sobbing…
Sukki knew what was happening, God was performing a spiritual operation on him, God was taking out all that needed to be taken out of him…
That night was the night of turn around for him. When he woke up, he felt anew, he longed for righteousness.
He stayed in Nigeria with Pastor Ayo for 6 months before returning to Las Vegas, but when he got back to Las Vegas…
