"She Comes On Sundays" and One Hour Interview On the BBC Radio

Image
"She Comes On Sundays" and One Hour Interview On the BBC Radio I have produced two singles. But I never released them commercially. I composed them as works of Art for performance. The first one "Hardway To Broadway" was recorded on Sunset Blvd in Los Angeles, California when I was 21 and loved rock music and had black and white girlfriends who loved rock music. I was a romantic Roman Catholic youth who was as naughty as smooching a girlfriend in between the pews inside the church. Seal's hit song "Crazy" comes to mind. "Hardway To Broadway" was fully copyrighted under my name Mike Nelson Chima Eke with a copy in Library of Congress, 101 Independence Ave SE, Washington, DC 20540, USA. But before, I could be lost, I became Born Again in a Pentecostal church. Bye, bye to my dreams of rock and roll and Hollywood. But in 2003, after successfully directing my play "Sleepless Night" at the French Cultural Centre in Ikoyi, featuring

Husband Controller

Husband Controller A man brought his wife to the church years ago. He said in a shaking voice, “My wife needs deliverance.” One way or the other, he had discovered that this woman was openly being unfaithful to him.  .And in those days, we didn’t know all we know now about deliverance. We were ready to pray for anything. If you brought a goat then, we would pray for the goat, we never asked questions. So as soon as he said his wife needed deliverance, we began to pray. We bound, we loosed, we prayed in tongues, we prayed in understanding. We did everything we knew, but nothing happened. When we were tired, we ask, “Ah, ah, God what else do we do? This woman has refused to be delivered, what is going on?” God said, “Have you asked her if she wants deliverance?” So we asked the woman, “Woman, do you want deliverance?” She said, “No.” Why? Why not? She said, “The power I use to control my husband, do you want me to lose it?” She continued, “Ask him, he is the one who drives me to
