My children, sit down. I want to give you a sermon that will make your blood freeze.
My Jjaajja Muguluma gave land to Ekerezia in Kiterede and Kinoni - to the Rev Brothers. My Taata Paul Misagga gave Ekerezia land adjacent to mine in Naziba Seguku.
And today, I warn my own.
TEMWEDIZA TTAAKA LYA KEREZIA! JJAAJJA MUGULUMA LYE YAGABBA.
Don't ever ask back that Ekerezia land!
You think I am joking? You think I am just being religious? But know this: I am also a traditionalist from Kifuuta kyotera.
Let me ask you a question that will shake you:
Do you know WHY that particular person took that hill and gave it to the Ekerezia?
You think your Jjaajja was foolish?
Some of our grandparents had NO sons. Some cried for years - no child would survive. Sudden deaths in the house, every year a burial. Poverty that never ended. Sickness that doctors could not explain.
Your Jjaajja fought that battle in the spirit! He bled! He suffered physically!
And finally, he went before God and made a COVENANT. He said, "Lord, if you remove this curse from my house, I will give you this hill. I will give you this land."
And God answered him! The deaths stopped. The sons came. The poverty broke.
He took the most valuable thing he had - that hill - and gave it to Ekerezia as an offering to seal the deliverance!
Then YOU come. You who never fought that battle. You who were born after the victory. You become wise in your own eyes.
You and your children and grandchildren become extremely foolish, saying, "No! Our father could not have been so foolish as to give such a valuable hill to the church! He was ignorant! We must reclaim it!"
My Bro and Sis, you are not reclaiming wealth. YOU ARE RECLAIMING THE CURSE!
When you try to reclaim that hill, you are also bringing back the problems your Jjaajja struggled to overcome:
- Sudden deaths will return to your house!
- Illnesses without cure will enter your children!
- Failure to have male children will haunt your lineage again!
- Misfortunes in life will follow you like a shadow!
You think you are taking back a plot. No! You are opening a grave that your Jjaajja had closed with his sacrifice!
BE VERY CAREFUL WITH EKEREZIA MONEY AND EKEREZIA LAND!
I have lived many years. I swear before God and gods in Kifuuta.
I have NEVER seen someone who takes money or land belonging to the Ekerezia and ends up prospering in this world. NEVER! I have seen many roitering around like Malaria around the dogs of Kivulu.
You will see them shining for 2 years, then you will hear - his son has died, his wife is mad, his business has burnt, his own body is rotting with a disease doctors cannot name! Muuve mukwata mubigali.
I have seen people who give money to the church, and you look at the amount and you say, "How do these rich people give so much?"
You don't know! That Jjaajja, Taata, Senga may have taken one-tenth of what they had and given it as a tithe, making a deep covenant before God. Perhaps their family line has been struggling with poverty, and they said, "Lord, I prayed to you and you have answered me, take this!"
Then you come, you who is not a priest, not an authorised Rev Fr, and you take that money, you eat it, you take that land and you sell it.
My friend, those problems he struggled to overcome will JUMP ON YOU!
AT NYENGA SEMINARY I REMEMBER GEHAZI.
Remember the story of the prophet Elisha when he told his servant Gehazi NOT to take anything from Naaman? "Don't take what does not belong to you!" What was given by Senga, Jjaajja and Taata is not yours, even if they were your parents.
Gehazi was greedy. He ran behind Naaman and took the gifts.
What happened? Leprosy came upon him and his lineage forever!
My friends, we need tremendous spiritual strength and understanding to recognise these things. It's only the Oracles in Kifuuta kyotera who understand these things.
There are things that can come upon us when we take what other people have sacrificed to give up.
Do not think everyone is simply looking for money. Someone may have sacrificed their last hill to break a family curse.
Sometimes, Ekerezia Priests may handle such things without being harmed because they have been entrusted and anointed to use them for God's work. The altar protects them.
But if you are not a priest or church minister, taking such things may bring leprosy ebigenge upon your house!
That land my Jjaajja Muguluma gave, that land my Taata Paul Misagga gave - LEAVE IT! Let it remain for Ekerezia! If you touch it, you are not fighting the church, you are fighting the covenant your own grandfather made with God to save YOU!
Fear God! And the gods in Kafuluma will be on your side.
The Oracles of Kifuuta know these things and tremble!
