penalty kick in a match against Buddha

11:24
hello listeners welcome back to my story
11:28
time my name is Elina Nachura last time
11:30
I gave a story about a boy who was very
11:33
merciful today I'm going to give a story
11:35
about a family that had to walk through
11:40
waters have you ever walked through deep
11:43
waters that is the question have you
11:46
ever been in a problem and you see the
11:48
miracle of God today I have a story that
11:50
I'm going to narrate about a family that
11:53
trusted in God and had to testify and
11:57
the miracles had to rain rain so welcome
12:04
story there lived a family and this
12:07
family was made up of a father a mother
12:10
and two children these people used to
12:12
pray they used to trust in their God
12:15
each and every day when they woke up in
12:17
the morning they used to dedicate their
12:19
time to pray in the afternoon the
12:22
parents had told their children to
12:23
always pray anywhere they they were
12:27
while in school anywhere so they were
12:28
taught on how to remember their god and
12:31
in the evening they used to do their
12:34
worship time they used to do their
12:36
devotion and then they pray together and
12:38
then uh before they could sleep they
12:41
could also pray so the children learned
12:43
about that so they had that the favor of
12:46
God so they trusted God fully so one day
12:50
they wanted to do their shopping and
12:52
they in their area uh there were no
12:55
things as in they could not get uh the
12:58
kind of shopping that they wanted and
13:00
then they had to send the father to go
13:03
and do some shopping that they needed
13:05
the house so the father the only
13:08
property that he had or the means of
13:10
transport that the father had was only a
13:15
u uh the wife or the mommy had to send
13:19
the daddy to cross over the river so
13:22
where they used to live they had to
13:24
cross over the river to go and do their
13:26
shopping the daddy uh when I just
13:31
remember uh there is a place in Mombasa
13:34
and this place when you want to cross
13:37
and to go to the other side of uh the
13:41
river you have to board a ferry in this
13:44
ferry uh people board even their
13:47
vehicles board everything had to board
13:50
for for them to cross the Indian Ocean
13:53
so this is the same scenario with his
13:56
family before they cross to the other
13:58
side to go and do their shopping they
14:00
they he had to to use his bicycle and
14:03
cross over the river but in this
14:04
particular time there was no ferry so
14:07
there was a canel a canel uh is whereby
14:11
this father used to he he just boarded
14:14
on a canel with his bicycle and he
14:17
crossed over the river and he went to do
14:19
his shopping so he went to the market uh
14:23
the mother remained behind with the
14:25
children so he did his shopping he
14:29
bought sugar he bought flour for gali
14:33
uh he had some other uh
14:36
vegetables while coming back because he
14:40
was looking for these commodities and
14:42
they were not easily available at the
14:45
marketplace so he took time and it was
14:47
late at around 7 p.m in the evening on
14:52
coming back uh it was somehow
14:55
dark as usual he looked for a tunnel
14:59
that was just there he entered inside he
15:03
had he had wrapped uh the floor and the
15:06
uh the fl sorry and the sugar in a pin
15:10
paper then in a cotton box and then he
15:13
just uh tied tied on the bicycle and
15:17
then he bought the canon back home the
15:20
mother was worried where is our daddy
15:23
the children were worried where is our
15:25
father but because this is a family that
15:28
trusted God and they they just knelt
15:31
down and prayed for their dad so the
15:34
father on coming back by mistake or by
15:38
accident the cano just slept and uh the
15:43
bicycle because it had the weight of the
15:45
fl the sugar fell and drowned down and
15:49
it sunk down deeper and then the father
15:53
was just thrown from the canel and the
15:57
canel just sunk down to the river so the
16:00
father had to start swimming he started
16:02
swimming swimming and he felt that the
16:05
water was overpowering him and then he
16:09
started praying he remembered his God as
16:11
usually prays because there is a verse
16:14
in the Bible that says "I'll be with you
16:17
when you walk through the waters you'll
16:19
never sink i'll be with you." So he
16:21
remember this verse so he just
16:24
surrendered his life to God and he
16:26
started swimming swimming swimming
16:28
without knowing where he was going but
16:30
by good luck he found himself that he
16:33
had reached at the end at the shore
16:36
and he just stood on the side and then
16:40
he was able to come out safely and he
16:44
thank God for that but his bicycle the
16:47
canop plus the other commodity that he
16:49
had bought just sunk like
16:51
that he just raised his voice and
16:55
thanked God because he was alive but all
16:58
of his clothes were were
17:00
wet but he could not mind what was
17:03
important god had saved his
17:06
life he started walking the journey to
17:09
his place on arriving home he knocked at
17:13
the door it was around 9:00 p.m he
17:16
door the wife opened the door the father
17:20
was wet all over he was shaking he was
17:22
shivering because of the cold then the
17:25
wife was oh my god what is not happening
17:28
the children ran daddy what's not
17:30
happening he was shivering but the wife
17:32
because the wife was so wise she ran she
17:36
brought dry clothes and then the daddy
17:39
went he showered and then he changed the
17:41
clothes the wife told him oh first of
17:44

17:47
and then you tell us you tell the story
17:50
happened after that is when The daddy
17:54
narrated the story what had happened
17:57
they were so sorry they knelt again they
18:00
prayed and they told God "We had prayed
18:02
for you daddy and we continue praying
18:04
for you and we had prayed and the God of
18:06
heaven had protected you he's the one
18:08
who protected you." They thanked God for
18:11
the life of their father so early in the
18:13
morning uh their father woke up and he
18:16
went and um reported the the the matter
18:19
to the chief what had happened maybe
18:22
Hivie could help uh to get some divers
18:25
to go and secure or help to see if they
18:29
can they could get the bicycle because
18:31
it was the only source of income oh the
18:34
chief was so sorry because the family
18:36
was so good and they they had a very
18:38
good reputation in the society in the
18:40
community the chief ordered some men who
18:42
knew how to dive so they went to the
18:44
river and then uh some men volunteered
18:47
and had started diving to the river so
18:51
some tried and tried and tried and came
18:53
back they could not find the cano they
18:55
could not find the the bicycle they
18:56
could not find even the the commodities
18:59

19:05
bicycle over there we can see the can
19:07
over there and then they dive and they
19:10
had they they had to to get hold of the
19:14
bicycle it was a miracle the bicycle was
19:18
secured it was retrieved and the cano
19:21
and the box the curtain that had the
19:24
commodities were safely retrieved from
19:27
the river it was a miracle it was a
19:30
miracle i'm telling you it was a miracle
19:32
i don't know if you've ever found
19:33
yourself in a such in a very difficult
19:36
situation you're almost dying or you've
19:39
been in a a situation whereby you've
19:42
lost hope but you remember that truly
19:44
God tells us or promises that I'll be
19:47
with you when you walk through the water
19:49
the deep waters I'll be with you i'll
19:52
security it is good that we trust in God
19:55
as this family always prayed in the
19:57
morning in the afternoon the evening
19:59
even these children were taught in
20:01
Proverbs chapter 22 verse 6 the Bible
20:04
teaches us that train up a child the way
20:06
he should go and when he is old he never
20:08
depart from those ways this is the kind
20:10
of teachings that these parents had to
20:13
pass over to their children and these
20:15
are the kind of teachings that you're
20:16
supposed to teach our children that when
20:18
we are in troubles we need to pray we
20:20
need to call upon God like this family
20:23
they trusted in God and they saw a
20:24
miracle they had a good reputation in
20:26
the society in the community and that is
20:28
why even when they faced they were faced
20:30
with such a challenge the community had
20:33
to mobilize themselves and had to
20:35
volunteer to help this man the man had
20:37
to get back his bicycle which was just
20:41
the main source of income and it is a
20:44
miracle that even the sugar even the
20:47
floor because it was tightly tied in a
20:49
poly paper it was as dry as it was
20:53
bought it was a miracle and then this
20:56
wife was so happy she did she started
20:59
doing her baking and then she sold she
21:02
sold the kind of uh mandazi that she
21:05
made from the the flour and then she
21:08
sold and she got a lot of money and she
21:10
gave back the tithe so we are also
21:12
encouraged to give back the 10% the
21:15
tithe and to God for God to bless us i
