Hey Arrow! While I was still in JC2 in 2008, I asked Daddy God for an offer from a good university, the funding and grades to go there. As Pastor Prince preached about the power of the anointing oil, I applied the anointing oil on myself, my books, my papers and all my university application materials. In January 2009, I received an offer to study at the top University in the UK.
However, the offer stated that my course would start in October 2009. Since I had enlisted by that time and would not leave the Army till December 2010, I asked the University for a deferment of the start of my course. Even though I struggled, protested and tried every which way to convince the University to defer my start date, they would not budge. Believing that Daddy God had a better plan, I cancelled the offer.
In September 2009, I applied to the same University again. This time, I decided to rest in Daddy God’s free favors and trust Him that His ways are indeed higher and more gracious than mine. Trusting in the power of the anointing oil, I anointed my application materials and myself before I went for the qualification interview.
However, the months came and went, still no reply came. During the Arrow service on 5th December, I was reminded by the pre-service handout that said 2009, declared to be the year of free favors, was not over yet.
Finally, in the last week of 2009, the University offered me a place for entry in October 2011, and I had also been accepted by the college right next to the University’s main library, an important building to me. All in, it was definitely better than my first offer. Praise Jesus! Daddy God indeed provides for His beloved. All Glory to Jesus!
