YOU PARTIED WITH 'EM, NOW LET'S PRAY FOR 'EM


Ayo Kara and Oye Benson Battle On

Heard about their car accident a while back. Didn't know how serious it was. But I got this email below, which I am sure many of you got as well.

" Brothers And Sisters in Christ Jesus,
As we all know that our good friend Ayo Kara & Oye benson (are) in the hospital as a result of a car accident and I would like the support of you and I to unite together for one(1) day fasting and praying for Ayo & Oye. The fasting and praying will be on Wednesday 29th of march. As we all know that there is nothing impossible with God. If Jesus can heal the soldiers child through his faith, create human beings out of rock(women giving birth without womb) and finally raising the dead to life(Lazarus)then the lord can also heal Ayo& Oye and make them whole Once again i urge each and every one of us to come together under the banner of the most high to start praying for Ayo Kara & Oye Benson as the battle line as been drawn.Thank you Jesus."

Upon further inquiry I 'gathered' that these cats are really battling for their lives. No need to go into details. Anyways, I don't know them personally, but a few friends do. My only contact with them is being on their party list serve. Speaking of which, I am sure many of you have been to their parties. So the same way y'all responded to those emails and flyers by going to thier gigs is the same way y'all should respond to this call to put them in your prayers. Don't be Ben Johnson's who are only seen when things are good and runaway/forget people when times are hard. I've never been to their parties but I've heard about them all the way in NC (lol) and me I want to get the opportunity to attend one some day. I am sure y'all and their friends would also like to see them get better to throw another blazing party. I can tell you, that 'Thanksgiving Party' (or service) when they get out of the hospital fully recovered will be one not to miss, some seriously required 'OWAMBE' event glorifying God for getting them through this ordeal (jokes aside and keeping it real).
I don't know about you, I don't do much fasting but tonight in my nightly prayer I'll be saying a few words for them and interceding on their behalf. My favorite singer Deana Edwards(long story) once sang 'a stranger is a friend that you don't know', so even as you and I may not know Ayo and Oye, we are all endeared to their plight by share human compassion (WWJD) . Hence, in efforting this human kindness lets wish our guys all the best, encourage them to keep fighting and pray for their SPEEDY RECOVERY.(I go hail una for de party)

Oye, Ayo and a friend

The Benson's are my family.(My Nigerian Cousins)...Ayo is still in the Hospital, but Oye is at home now. Oye is recovering,..I spoke to him, but I can't even reach Ayo...His friends cant even see him (as of last week)...His case is very severe, and all I can do is pray for him,...I pray that He comes out of this darkness by the Grace of God, and I pray they, AYO and OYE recover COMPLETELY.
Amen.

I pray that the almighty God in His infinite mercies will grant Ayo full recovery in Jesus name. I know Ayo, we went to school together and I pray and believe that Ayo would be whole again in Jesus precious name. Pls pray for him, and thank God for his friend Oye, I pray that his recovery will be full and complete in Jesus name.
