Let me share this here. If this incident that happened a few hours ago. I wasn’t supposed to stop. But I did. There was chaos just ahead of the supermarket gate somewhere in Surulere. A black Toyota Corolla was surrounded by three LASTMA officials. The driver, mid-40s, shirt soaked in sweat, kept pacing between them. And something in his voice stopped me. "Please. Please just look inside the car. He is not even moving anymore. That’s my son. He is sick, he is very sick. We were going to the hospital. I only stepped in to grab his medication. I was gone for just five minutes." One of the officials shook his head like he’d heard it a thousand times. "You people always have stories. Why park where you're not supposed to? You want us to lose our job?" Another officer barked. "Oga, if you don’t bring ₦70,000 now, this car is going to the yard. And from there? You’ll need close to ₦400,000 to bail it." The man reached out. Not to touch them. Just to plead. They stepped back like he carried something contagious. "I swear I’m not lying. Please. He has severe asthma. I forgot the nebulizer at home. I was rushing to the hospital, Faithview, just ten minutes from here. Look at him! You have a child, right? Please, have sympathy." That was when I looked. The boy,maybe ten, was in the backseat, his small frame slumped against the door, eyes half-closed. His chest heaved in rapid spasms, every breath sounding like gravel grinding in a pipe. His fingers trembled. His lips were turning dark. So I stepped forward. "What’s wrong with him?" The father looked at me, disoriented. "Asthma. It started an hour ago. He had a mild attack in the morning, but it’s worsening fast. I was going to get him treated and just stopped for a refill. Please, sir… help me talk to them." I tried to talk to the LASTMA officers but they ignored me so I turned back to the man. "Try and sort this with them, let me take him to the hospital." His eyes widened. "You…?” "We don't have another option and there is no time. He needs oxygen. Now.” He hesitated. "You’re a stranger." "I am. But your son is dying.” He looked back at the boy. Then at me. He obviously saw that there was no other option left. His lips trembled. "Give me your number. Please.” I gave him mine. And he gave me his. I opened the door and gently lifted the boy from the backseat. He was warm. Burning. His eyes barely focused on mine. As I placed him in my car, the father shouted behind me. "Please, call me the moment you get there. Please don’t let anything happen to him!" I nodded once. Then I got into the car and quickly drove off. The hospital wasn’t crowded, I guess because it was a private one. I rushed in carrying the boy in both arms. "Emergency! Severe asthma attack. Ten-year-old boy!" The receptionist stood up so fast her chair hit the wall. She shouted. "Treatment Room Two! Get Doctor Okafor!" While I tried to fill the form I was given, two nurses rushed and took the boy, placed him on the oxygen tank, connected a nebulizer, and began checking vitals. One of the nurses murmured. "He’s tachypneic. Respiration over 40. Oxygen saturation 82%." The doctor said as he rushed in still zipping his scrubs. "Get the hydrocortisone ready. Nebulize him every 20 minutes. Keep him on oxygen. If he doesn’t stabilize, we’re moving to adrenaline injection.” I stood there. My heart pounding. This wasn’t my child. But it felt like my fight. Minutes passed. Then the doctor came out. “He is stable." He said, wiping his forehead. "That was close. He’ll be okay, but he needs to stay a few hours for monitoring.” I thanked him so much. The bill came. ₦89,000. I paid with my debit card. I stepped outside and called the boy’s father. He picked on the first ring. “Hello! Sir, please, is he?" "He is stable. He is getting oxygen and treatment.” A pause. Then I heard the man begin to cry. Softly. I didn’t speak. I let him. But he wasn’t done. “They’ve taken the car. They refused to wait. I was still begging when the towing truck came. They said the 70K grace was over. I’m at their yard in Iponri now. Sir… they’re asking for ₦385,000 to release my car.” I looked at the hospital door behind me. Then at the sky. Then back to my car. I didn't know what to say to him. But all I found myself saying was. "I’m coming.” And I meant it. He couldn't believe his ears. I arrived at the LASTMA office just before 3PM. The weather was warm, no sun, but the heat stuck to my skin like wet cloth. I found him standing by a corner fence, head down, fingers digging into his scalp. He was tired and confused. So I said to him gently. "Sir." He looked up like someone coming out of a bad dream. His eyes were red, his face streaked with dry sweat and tears. He approached me nervously. His voice was hoarse. "My car… they have impounded it. Said I’ll pay ₦385,000. They even threatened to keep increasing the fine by day. That car is my only source of income. That's my office from where I make money to take care of my son and my wife. God, please, help me." I told him. "Stay calm. Nothing will happen to your car, you'll get it back, I believe." He nodded slowly. "They have been laughing at me. One said, ‘Your son is sick? Na why you go break law? You think say we be Red Cross?’" I felt something cold stir in my chest. Not rage. Just sadness. I said to him. "Please, come with me." We walked into the building. Inside, it smelled of engine oil, sweat, and indifference. I approached the counter. “Good afternoon. I’d like to speak with your superior officer. It’s regarding a car that was impounded a few hours ago, black Toyota Corolla.” A thickset officer with bloodshot eyes looked up at me. "Eeyyaa who you be? Police or Army? Abeg everything you want to say, say it here. We don’t have time.” I responded calmly but firm. "I was the one who rushed the sick boy to the hospital, I have the hospital card and bill here. He was in the back seat of that vehicle. That child would have died today if I didn’t act." He scoffed. "And so? Good for him. E mean say we no go do our job?” "No one said that but this man was in an emergency. All he asked was a few more minutes. Instead, you people want to extort him. Now you’re billing him almost ₦400,000. This isn’t traffic enforcement. It’s cruelty." Another officer chimed in. "Oga, the car don enter system. Na only Oga inside go override am. And e no dey see everybody." "Then let him see me." "As governor of Lagos State or as who?" Silence. I stood my ground. "Get your superior. I’ll wait.” The minutes crawled. The father stood beside me like a child awaiting judgment. Fortunately, a senior officer emerged. Bald, tall, stern. I saw his name tag. He sized me up before he said. "What’s the problem?” I stepped forward and told the story. From the moment I saw the boy wheezing in the back seat, to carrying him into the hospital, to paying the ₦89,000 hospital bill, to returning only to find the car had been towed. The Commander listened without interruption. Then he asked a single question: “Do you have proof the boy was sick?” I handed him the hospital bill and the case card. He studied them for a long moment. Then something shifted in his eyes. He looked at the officers behind the desk. "You towed the vehicle knowing a child was dying in it?" "Sir, the man parked in a no-parking." "I didn’t ask that. I asked if you knew a child was in distress in the car." No one answered. He sighed. "Release the car. Immediately. Remove the fine. No man should suffer for saving his own son’s life. And you." He turned to the father. "You’re lucky someone still has a conscience in this country. Thank this guy for stepping in." The man fell to his knees. "Thank you. Thank you, sir… I swear, thank you…" When the superior left, he turned to me. And his voice broke. "You didn’t know me. Yet you rushed my son to the hospital. You paid for his treatment. And now, you’re standing here fighting for me when I couldn’t even fight for myself." I helped him to his feet. He opened his wallet and tried to hand me some money. "I don’t have much. Please… even if it’s part of what you spent..." I shook my head. "Your son is breathing. That’s enough. Please, pick your car and go and see him. God bless you." He looked at me, eyes trembling. "Why? Why would you do this for me?" I didn’t know how to answer that. So I said the only thing I truly believed. "Because someone should." As we walked out into the fading light, I handed him a folded note. It was the hospital’s follow-up card. His son had to return in two days for further tests. "I already booked the appointment. He’ll need more care. Don’t miss it." He opened it slowly, then looked back at me, his lips parted, but no words came. Only tears. Only silence. And behind us, the LASTMA officers watched. They were quiet now. Maybe even ashamed. But I left there happy and fulfilled. You could do the same. And the world will be a better place. . Chiemelie Kyrian Offor June 17, 2025

They told her to wait in the corridor while the family ate, She was just the house help. She served their meals but ate leftovers. She washed their clothes but wore rags. Lagos, Southwest, Nigeria 1995… Amarachi was 13 when she was sent from her village to Lagos to work as a housemaid for the Okoye family. Her job? Clean the house, Fetch water, Cook, Wash, Repeat the same. She wasn’t allowed to sit on the couch, Not allowed to eat with the children, She ate on the kitchen floor, Sometimes she slept near the store room. They said: “Know your place, you are lucky to be here.” But she was Kind, obedient, and every night she read old textbooks she found in the bin. One of the children, Chidera, once caught her studying and said: “You? School? Who will pay for your brain?” She smiled and said: “Maybe one day, God will.” After four years, she was sent back to her village; No certificate, No savings, No promise. But Amarachi didn’t stop. She farmed. Saved, Taught children in village. Later got admitted into one of the Federal Polytechnic. Made an Upper Credit in her OND, thereafter graduated with a Distinction in HND in Business Administration. She soon started a local food brand, Expanded into Raw Food Export. By 2024, she became one of the leading Agro-entrepreneurs in Southeast, Nigeria. One day, she saw a social media Post, the Okoye family was launching a foundation and needed a major sponsor. She put a call through. Used her now married name. She was invited, not knowing who she was. On the day of the launch, she walked in, head high, dressed in white lace. The family froze. Chidera blinked, The father gasped, She smiled and said: 25 years ago, I served your food in silence. Today, I came to serve your future with Love. She handed them a cheque of ₦20 million donation to their Foundation. Then added: “This is not revenge. It’s a remembrance. Because the girl you ignored, grew in Grace.” The hall fell silent. Even Chidera wept, Amarachi turned, hugged the family’s grandmother, and whispered: The table I once wasn’t allowed to sit at, God gave me the tools to build my own. She didn’t come to repay the pain, She came to rewrite history. Because sometimes, the girl they made to eat in the kitchen, returns to fund the Banquet. Life is a teacher!

Givers never lack they said,but not your children feeding and school fees.

If your heart ache tonight with the weight of missing a loved one, let yourself go there—gently, bravely. Close your eyes and bring them to mind. Picture their face, the way they smiled at you, the sound of their voice when they said your name. Let the love you carry rise like a quiet prayer, soft and steady. Speak to them in the silence, as if they were right beside you—because in the ways that matter most, they still are. Love like theirs doesn’t disappear; it transforms, it lingers, it listens. They hear you, even now. Every whispered thought, every tear, every moment you wish they were near—they feel it all. You’re never speaking into emptiness. You’re speaking heart to heart, soul to soul. And though you cannot hold them, you can hold the love. That’s forever. 🙏

Good morning. OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY JUNE 18 2025 THEME: WORDS CAN HEAL MEMORISE: Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. Colossians 4:6 READ: John 8:1-11 1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. 2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them. 3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. MESSAGE Over the past two days, I discussed the power of words; today, I will focus on how words can heal. As a Christian, you should always be gracious with your words (Ephesians 4:29). You should be generous with giving compliments and telling people encouraging words. Simply saying things like, "I like your haircut," can bring people out of sadness and put a smile on their faces. Your compliments must, however, be genuine because God will punish those who flatter others with their words (Psalm 12:3). In Ruth 2:1, Boaz was described as a mighty man of wealth. Unlike some wealthy people who look down on their workers and speak rashly to them, Boaz encouraged his workers with his words, and they responded pleasantly (Ruth 2:4). I believe this is partly responsible for Boaz's successful business. If you are a business owner and you curse or talk down on your workers, you are indirectly also cursing the work of your hands because they are the ones managing it for you. Nabal, unlike Boaz, was a man who spoke negative words. When David sent his men to ask him to give them something, his response was terrible. He spoke harshly to the men and if his wife, Abigail, hadn't intervened by going without his consent to soothe David with her words, everyone in his family would have been destroyed. While Nabal's words stirred up David's anger and made him gather his men to go against the former's household, Abigail's words were seasoned with salt and kept her family from destruction (1 Samuel 25:1-35). When you speak, what effect do your words have? Do they heal or destroy? Solomon said, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue..." (Proverbs 18:21). Apostle Paul, in today's memory verse, tells us to make sure that our speech is always with grace and seasoned with salt. Seasoning makes food more enjoyable. A fellow whose speech is well- seasoned will always attract others to himself or herself because people go to places where they are appreciated and motivated. When the woman caught in the act of adultery in today's Bible reading was brought to Jesus, in the midst of many condemning words from other people, His words, "Go and sin no more," brought her the liberty that she needed (John 8:11). Beloved, let your words bring unbelievers to Jesus and show them His grace. Do not let your words be the reason people reject the gospel. ACTION POINT Consciously give genuine compliments and encourages people with your words every day. BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 73-77 AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A ADEBOYE HYMN 24: I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS* 1. I want to be like Jesus, So lowly and so meek; For no one marked an angry word, That ever heard Him speak. 2. I want to be like Jesus, So frequently in prayer; Alone upon the mountain top, He met his Father there. 3. I want to be like Jesus, I never, never find That He, though persecuted was To any one unkind. 4. I want to be like Jesus, Engaged in doing good; So that of me it may be said "He hath done what he could." 5. I want to be like Jesus, Who sweetly said to all, "Let little children come to Me;" I would obey the call. 6. But oh I'm not like Jesus, As any one may see; O gentle Saviour, send Thy grace, And make me like to Thee.

Someone traπsferred ₦7.2 mill!on to my account by mistake. I reported it. I wish I didn’t. Because that single act of “doing the right thing” almost cost me my life.- Man, whose bank a¢¢ount was used for moneylaundary opens up THE STORY BEGINS: It was a rainy Thursday afternoon in Abuja. NEPA had taken light. I was ly!ng down, pressing phone with low battery, when I got an alert: ₦7,200,000 Description: “Lands/Final Payment.” I blinked twice. Thought it was a scam. I checked my mobile app The money was real. No call, No email, No explanation. Just 7.2 million chilling in my account like it paid rent. I waited 2 hours. Still no call. I asked a friend who’s a banker. He said: “Guy, e fit be wrong traπsfer. Just report it before they involve EFCC.” Reluctantly, I called my baπk. They told me to come to the bran¢h. I went the next morning, met with the braπch manager, and explained everything. They froze my account immediately. “We’ll investigate,” they said. Cool. I thought I did the right thing. I was wrong. Two days later, two men showed up outside my gate. They weren’t wearing uniforms. One had tribal marks. The other had a thick Igbo accent. “Are you Ibrahim?” “Come with us.” I asked who they were. One just flashed a card: "CID - Special Fr∆ud Unit." They took me to a dingy office in Wuse. No proper chairs.Just heat, files, and stares. They said the money was linked to a land scam in Apo. That someone used my account as a mule. I laughed. I thought it was a joke. Until they showed me the CCTV. There was a video of a man entering a bank Using MY account number to make a deposit. I had never seen him before in my life. But the way he filled my details on the teller…Like he knew me. They interrogated me for 6 hours. No food, No call, No lawyer. One of them said: “Look, if you’re lying, you’ll spend your life in Kuje prison.” That’s when it hit me: Somebody set me up. Turns out the man in the CCTV is part of a network that uses random innocent accounts to launder money. My account had been dormant for a year before I reactivated it last week. They found it through a compromised banking agent. I was eventually cleared. But not before they froze all my other bank accounts for two weeks, seized my laptop, and made me report daily like I was a criminal. All because I did the “right thing.” Wanna hear the crazy part? The guy who actually stole the money was arrested…And released three days later. Word is, his brother is a senator. I lost 4 freelance jobs. Missed rent. And until today, my neighbors still whisper: “That’s the guy that almost went to ja!l for money launder!πg.” Even though I was innocent from day one. Moral of the story? In this country, being innocent won’t always save you. Your best defense is proof, prayers, and power. I only had two out of three. If you ever receive strange m0ney in your ac¢ount, don’t just celebrate or ignore it. Screenshot. Report it. But lawyer up first. Because in Nigeria? The system isn’t built to protect honest people.

"They told her to wait in the corridor while the family ate." She was “just the help.” She served their meals but ate leftovers. She washed their clothes but wore rags. But one day… She knocked on their door — not to beg, but to bless. She Was the House Girl Who Wasn’t Allowed to Eat at the Table — 25 Years Later, She Returned With a Surprise That Made the Whole Family Cry Written by Rosyworld CRN 1999. Lagos, Nigeria. Amarachi was 13 when she was sent from her village to Lagos to work as a housemaid for the Okoye family. Her job? Clean the house. Fetch water. Cook. Wash. Repeat. She wasn’t allowed to sit on the couch. Not allowed to eat with the children. She ate on the kitchen floor. Sometimes slept near the store room. They said: “Know your place. You’re lucky to be here.” But she was kind. Obedient. And every night, she read old textbooks she found in the bin. One of the children, Chidera, once caught her studying and said: “You? School? Who will pay for your brain?” She smiled and said: “Maybe one day, God will.” After four years, she was sent back to her village. No certificate. No savings. No promise. But Amarachi didn’t stop. She farmed. Saved. Taught children. Got into a polytechnic. Graduated in business. Started a food brand. Expanded into export. By 2024, she became one of the leading agro-entrepreneurs in Southern Nigeria. --- One day, she saw a social media post — the Okoye family was launching a foundation and needed a major sponsor. She made a call. Used her married name. They invited her… not knowing who she was. On the day of the launch, she walked in — head high, dressed in white lace. The family froze. Chidera blinked. The father gasped. She smiled and said: “25 years ago, I served your food in silence. Today, I came to serve your future with love.” She handed them a cheque — ₦20 million donation to the foundation. Then added: “This is not revenge. It’s remembrance. Because the girl you ignored… grew in grace.” The hall fell silent. Even Chidera wept. Amarachi turned, hugged the family’s grandmother, and whispered: “The table I once wasn’t allowed to sit at… God gave me the tools to build my own.” She didn’t come to repay pain. She came to rewrite history. Because sometimes, the girl they made eat in the kitchen… Returns to fund the banquet.

"They told her to wait in the corridor while the family ate." She was “just the help.” She served their meals but ate leftovers. She washed their clothes but wore rags. But one day… She knocked on their door — not to beg, but to bless.

Amarachi was 13 when she was sent from her village to Lagos to work as a housemaid for the Okoye family. Her job? Clean the house. Fetch water. Cook. Wash. Repeat.
