ACT 1
Scene 4
(At Pastor Atang’s apartment)
{Entered Uyai, Edidiong, Mr. and Mrs. Atang}UYAI
(After narrating her predicament including that of her father)
Mummy, Daddy. That is all I’ve been passing through. I would have said something earlier but I didn’t want to sound like I’m complaining. Last night was so over bearing and my neighbor advised me to talk to you. (Sobbing) I don’t know what to do.
MRS. ATANG
(Comforting her) My child,it is ok to be weak and scared. None of us knew that this is what you are passing through. Seriously, Ndiọnọke. I’m…
[Interpretation: I don't know]
EDIDIONG
…..I knew, only that she won’t talk about it.
MRS. ATANG
Hmmm.My child, no home is perfect. You know that a woman build or break a home. The man is just the head. What we live in is what we built. Men with such character are not easy to reason with, it takes the spirit of God to arrest such person.
PASTOR ATANG
That’s true Uyai. I’m not in support of your husband’s actions but I can say that he is lost. And it is not easy on your own part. Don’t lose faith, God will do something.
Pray for him. If need be, fast for him. You need to save him. Don’t let anybody advise you to leave him. I know it is tempting to leave because it’s hard but, remember the vows you took. For better for worst, till death do you part. Remember 1corinthians chapter 7 verses 10. The man is the head of the woman as God is the head of the man. So since your head is giving you troubles Uyai, report him to his head by praying earnestly and God being his head will discipline him and deliver him.
Render your petitions to God through prayer in the name of Jesus, for Christ said
“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know he hear us, whatsoever we ask we know that we have the petitions that we desire of him” (1john chapter 5 verse 24)
And if I should continue, asking according to his will is just asking the right way.“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall ask the father in my name, (Jesus Christ), he will give it you. Hitherto have ye ask nothing in my name, ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full….(John chapter 16 verse 23-26)
And like Hannah, in 1samuel chapter 1 verse 14-20 her heart was heavy, she cried unto God and her petitions were answered.
Petitions are just remembering Who God is, what he has done and his promises he has said he will do for you in his word. And saying them back to him, giving him reasons why he should bless you.
