Angels On Guard. Keep Off!



Zenas, the European and Olyrus the Greek couldn't explain the
commotion outside. When all the noise had died down, they wanted to b
sure that it wasn't a stronger foe eliminatng a bigger foe so as to
pose a bigger threat. Unable to suppress his curiosity anymore, Olyrus
walked through the closed termite-infested door into the corridor.
Standing there, he saw Andronicus in the compound. He towered
eight-feet from the ground in full glory: wings unfurled, sword drawn
and sparklin, eyes set and intense, and countenance shining. His face
was unruffled and his sword stained, indicating he had just prevailed
over an enemy. The rays of extra-terrestial light emanating from his
celestial body bathed the surroundings in a holy radiance. The trees
looked like bronze statures with leaves modelled from emerald. The wet
ground was as polished copper. The building's faded yellow paint
metamorphosed into gold, as if the building had been cast with it. The
louvres seemed to be made of silver, not glass anymore. The glorious
rays covered a parameter of twenty metres square.
The glorious radiance only lasted for few minuted before the
supernatural gave way to the natural. It only happened to give the
earth an infinitessimal foretaste of what heaven looked like.
Olyrus wndered how Andronicus knew that Chemosh, the demon had entered
the skies above Nigeria. He sheathed his sword, then took giant
strides to greet his friend who sat on the fence. As he approached,
Andronicus, the Roman stood up to acknowledge his greeting.
After they had exchanged pleasantries, Olyrus turned and called out,
"Zenas, Andronicus is here. He has taken care of Chemosh, and I assure
you it won't hurt to say hi to him."
Turning back to Andronicus he said, "Come, let's watch over him
together." he was referring to the praying man.
Andronicus smiled for he delighted in watching men pray. Their prayers
had come in handy when direly needed. He greatly admired the praying
man. Men like him had entered nations on their knees through prayer;
nations their physical eyes will never behold till they breath their
last. People like him would be given great awards on the last day for
mighty deliverances they had brought thru prayer.
Andronicus knew how the praying fellow had helped him prevail over a
tribal demon prince in far away India. He shuddered as he remembered
the onslaught on the peaks of the Himalayan mountains. He still
remembered his terribily bruised knees, his ripped tunic, his fatigued
body and how profusely his side was bleeding before the man started
praying. He was fighting under the cover of darkness and needed the
light that only prayer could bring. As the incense of the man's prayer
entered the courts of heaven, immediately light began to break forth.
As the man's prayer intensified, so did the incense ascending into
heaven increase and so also did his strength return. The more
persistent the supplication, the more Andronicus' prevailed. Until he
smote his enemy and cast his ruin upon the mountain side. This all
took place before the glorious light of the gospel could shine and
penetrate through the hearts of men blinded by the demonic prince. His
deepest longing was for more intercessors in the kingdom. It always
helped in angelic warfare.
Olyrus and his companion met Zenas with his sword sheathed, nerves
relaxed and a smile on his cherubic face. Instantly, he was given a
bear hug by Andronicus.
After the greeting, Andronicus told them why he had come.
He said, "I left Abidjan immediately I learnt from a friend that
Chemosh was in Nigeria. I was told that that foul spirit had  been
seen on the skies above the border that this country shared with Benin
Republic. That was when i knew that my long awaited revenge had
finally come.
When he was asked what he meant by a long awaited opportunity, he
continued his story.
"You do not know Chemosh! He is more skilful and crafty, than he is
devilish! He has escaped from major battles. I was amazed by how he
did it, until lately. Right from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah
till now, he has eluded been vanquished. I wil explain." And he went
ahead to do so.
