Jesus my Savior in a small quiet Village deep in the heart of Nigeria Faith was not just a belief but a way of life the village brimmed with churches each claiming to be the true path to Salvation among them was a church unlike any other it was not Grand or adorned with golden crosses rather it was a simple grass thatched structure standing in the center of the community this humble Sanctuary was home to Pastor makoko a man whose name inspired awe and fear in equal measure Pastor makoko was no ordinary preacher he was gifted or

so it seemed with a power that few dared to question his sermons were fiery his words mesmerizing and his miracles Beyond Comprehension the blind regained their sight the lame walked and the sick were healed even the wealthy from distant towns made their way to the grass thatched Church hoping to witness his Divine abilities for them the state of the church's roof and walls mattered little it was the man inside that Drew the crowds makoko had one peculiar rule a command he never failed to emphasize during his Services close your eyes while he prayed to disobey

this rule he warned was to invite the devil to pluck out your eyes The Village ERS steadfast in their faith obeyed him without question even newcomers unfamiliar with his strict Doctrine were sternly instructed to follow suit close your eyes when I pray makoko would Bellow do not tempt the devil to steal your vision if you open them you'll face consequences Beyond repair the fear in his voice was enough to ensure compliance no one dared to Peak over time his rule became an unchallenged law within the community one day however a stranger named Ain arrived in

the village aen was a traveler skeptical of Miracles and wary of men who claimed to speak for God he had heard of mako's reputation and decided to attend one of his services not out of Faith but curiosity as the congregation gathered in the small Church mako's voice rang out commanding all to close their eyes but Akin did not he kept one eye slightly open watching the preacher with suspicion to his surprise he saw makoko collecting money and gifts that the congregation had brought as offerings it wasn't the act of collecting that startled him but the

manner in which makoko received the offerings greedy hurried as though he feared someone might take them away when makoko finished praying he turned his gaze toward Akin his eyes narrowing with an intensity that made the room feel colder you visitor have disobeyed God's instruction he thundered the congregation gasped their heads turning to aen who now stood Frozen under mako's piercing glare you opened your eyes during prayer didn't you makoko asked Aken nodded hesitantly makoko raised his hands dramatically then hear this you will not live to see tomorrow the Wrath of the almighty is upon you

repent before it is too late the church erupted in Whispers and gasps some pleaded with akin to beg for forgiveness but he remained silent his skepticism unshaken the villagers however believed makoko without question if he said Akin would die it was as good as done the next day The Village awoke to a strange sight Ain alive and well strolling through the Marketplace he greeted the villagers with a smile showing no sign of fear or impending doom the news spread quickly and people began to murmur among themselves was Pastor makoko wrong but before doubt could take

root another event solidified mako's hold over the community a week later another visitor a young woman named kioma attended the service during prayer kiom grew restless and forgetting the pastor's warning opened her eyes almost immediately makoko stopped praying and turned to her you too have disobeyed God child from this moment on your voice will be silenced you will not speak again until you repent the congregation watched in horror as kioma tried to respond but no sound escaped her lips she clutched her throat her face contorted in panic mako's prophecy had come true or so it

seemed from that day kioma was seen but never heard her silence became a testimony to mako's power a cautionary tale for all who might consider defying his rules mako's influence grew and with it the offerings brought to the church the villagers poor as they were gave generously money food livestock believing their sacrifices would be rewarded yet despite their gifts the church remained a grasp thatched structure vulnerable to rain and wind the widows and orphans in the village continued to struggle receiving no aid from the wealth amassed by their Pastor mako's greed did not go unnoticed

by other pastors in neighboring Villages they began to warn their congregations against himo not be fooled by Miracles test the spirits to see whether they are from God but their words fell on deaf ears to the villagers makoko was a man of of God his power undeniable the warnings of others only reinforced their belief that mako's Rivals were jealous of his Divine favor if they cannot heal the sick or make the lame walk what right do they have to criticize him one villager remarked no one dared to question makoko directly the fear of his curses

was too great despite his firm grip on the village Whispers of Doubt began to spread some villagers noticed inconsistencies in his sermons others began to wonder why the church's condition never improved despite the wealth pouring in one night a group of young men decided to investigate mako's claims under the cover of Darkness they crept toward his house hoping to uncover the truth what they discovered sent shock waves through the village mako's home hidden behind tall trees was a far cry from the modest dwellings of his congregation it was lavishly furnished filled with treasures that could

only have come from the offerings of the faithful the young men returned to the village with their findings but fear kept them silent they knew that confronting makoko could result in a curse worse than death the news of Pastor mako's Miracles had spread far and wide and one day he announced a grand conference at the grass thatched church he promised that the event would bring healing deliverance and miracles like never before word traveled quickly drawing people from neighboring Villages and Beyond on the day of the conference the churchyard was packed with eager Souls desperate for

a touch of God's power makoko stood at the front his voice booming through the makeshift loudspeakers Brethren today is the day of Miracles blind eyes will open the lame will walk and even your broken radios will start working again if you just believe the crowd erupted in cheers some Laughing At The Mention Of radios makoko had a way of blending humor into his sermons and the people loved it let me tell you even mosquitoes that have been biting you for years will leave your house tonight if you say hallelujah loud enough he said and the

congregation roared with laughter as the prayers began people lined up to receive healing true to his reputation makoko La hands on the Blind and one man's Vision was miraculously restored the crowd gasped in amazement as the man screamed I can see I can see overwhelmed with joy the man ran home to bring his brother who had been blind for many years the brother frail and hesitant was led to the front of the church the crowd parted to make way for him murmuring in anticipation makoko however was in the middle of a fiery sermon he raised

his hand to stop them wait wait wait I am busy preaching right now do you want me to cut God's message short for your impatience my Miracles are not fast food you don't just order and collect the crowd laughed nervously but the man insisted please Pastor my brother has been blind for so long he needs your prayers makoko sighed dramatically all right all right but but you know some Miracles need scheduling you don't just walk into a hospital and demand surgery without an appointment the crowd burst into laughter again but the man was not amused

makoko finally approached the blind man and placed his hands on his head Lord we know that with you nothing is impossible just like you gave Samson strength and made Jonah swim in the belly of the fish without drowning we know this man will see he paused for effect then declared loudly my friend you will start seeing from home the Blind Man's brother looked confused but why the other man you prayed for started seeing instantly why can't my brother see now makoko chuckled wiping his brow my friend every Miracle has its time God's blessings are like

mobile data they don't all activate at once your brother's Miracle is pending activation just take him home and let it process the crowd laughed again but the brother's face darkened with doubt reluctantly he led his blind sibling away later that evening the man who had brought his blind brother decided to go into town to buy supplies to his shock he spotted Pastor mcoo sitting at a restaurant with the man whose sight had supposedly been restored earlier the two were laughing and counting money on the table the man froze his heart pounding he ducked behind a

wall and watched as makoko handed the man a thick bundle of cash you did well today makoko said his voice carrying through the air the way you shouted I can see was perfect these villagers are so easy to fool the man's blood boiled his worst fears had been confirmed mako's Miracles were fake a carefully orchestrated scam designed to rob the faithful of their hard-earned money makoko leaned back in his chair laughing loudly if only these people knew how easy it is to trick them honestly I should start selling holy water too I'll tell them it

can cure headaches and drive away witches the other man chuckled pocketing his share of the money you've got them Wrapped Around Your Finger Pastor you could tell them you walked on water yesterday and they'd believe it why stop there makoko said grinning I'll tell them I had dinner with Moses last night and he complimented my cooking the two men laughed uor justly but the man hiding nearby was seething he clenched his fists his mind racing how could he expose this fraud without falling victim to mako's wrath the villagers would never believe him without proof and

mako's curses had a way of silencing dissenters determined to find a way to reveal the truth he quietly slipped away his heart heavy with the weight of what he had witnessed the once revered grass thatched Church of Pastor makoko began to unravel as strange events unfolded one day a renowned witch doctor from a neighboring Village heard rumors of mako's miraculous Powers but this man had an ulterior motive he suspected mako's Miracles were not of God but derived from Dark Forces the witch doctor known for his Mastery of snakes and other mystical Powers decided to pay

makoko a visit not to seek healing ing but to test the source of his strength the witch doctor entered the church during a crowded prayer service makoko as usual was commanding the congregation to close their eyes while he prayed but the witch doctor kept his eyes wide open studying the surroundings as makoko raised his hands in prayer the witch doctor noticed something unusual a massive snake slithering behind the pastor it moved like a shadow coiled and ready as if it were part of mako's being quietly the witch doctor devised a plan if this man's power

comes from these snakes he thought then I will take one and see if his strength diminishes the next day under the guise of seeking prayer the witch doctor managed to steal one of the snakes during a private session with makoko though the pastor did not immediately notice the theft marked the beginning of a shift after that day mako's Miracles began to falter some people who had previously been healed returned to complain that their illnesses had returned the blind who had supposedly regained their sight began losing it again mako's once commanding presence seemed weaker and his

sermons lacked the fire they once had meanwhile another new visitor attended the church during the prayer session despite mako's warnings this man opened his eyes what he saw shook him to his core a massive snake standing upright behind makoko its head swaying as if it were part of the pastor's ritual the man screamed and bolted out of the church shouting this is no house of God there's a snake behind the pastor the congregation was thrown into chaos some dismissed the man as mad but others couldn't shake the unease growing in their hearts they began Whispering

among themselves wondering if mako's Powers were indeed Divine or something far darker during one of mako's prayer sessions a few of the faithful started falling to the ground as was customary during his services but this time it wasn't from the power of the spirit It Was Fear they had begun to suspect something sinister in his prayers this marks a moment of reflection for anyone reading or hearing this story not every church is a house of God and not every Pastor is a servant of the Lord be careful where you worship do not blindly enter any

church you come across without seeking God's guidance it is better to pray from home and ask the Lord for discernment than to fall into the Trap of deception and darkness God's word reminds us in 1 John 4:1 dear friends do not believe every Spirit but test the spirits to see see whether they are from God this is a call to seek wisdom and to pray for God's Direction before placing your faith in any preacher or church the enemy often disguises himself as an angel of Light and many false prophets rise seeking personal gain rather than

leading people to the truth to protect yourself always pray before joining a congregation ask God for clarity trust him to lead you to a place where his truth is taught and his spirit is present and remember prayer is powerful even from the comfort of your home Jesus said in Matthew 18:20 for where two or three Gather in my name there am I with them if this story has touched your heart type this prayer as a way of seeking God's guidance type Lord lead me to your truth protect me from deception and let your spirit guide

my heart always
