EVANGE MOSES DOGOOD

_This retired civil servant in Abuja sold his family house without telling his wife or children._
Months before anyone suspected anything, the original house documents had already been quietly moved out of the house for safekeeping. So when strangers eventually showed up for inspection, it had already gone too far to reverse.
That house wasn’t inherited. It came from years of deductions, years of sacrifice, living inside one of those government quarters that were later sold to occupants. But retirement changed the balance of power inside the house.
His wife controlled most decisions, and gradually the children adopted her tone until the man who paid for the roof over their heads became almost invisible inside it. He said there was even a period he fell seriously sick and nobody asked if he had eaten before leaving the house each morning.
Around that same period, his entire gratuity was taken to fund a family business. It was supposed to help everyone. It collapsed before one year. That was when the quiet planning began. Not loudly, not emotionally but silently. He decided he would rather start life again alone than remain in a house where he felt unwanted.
Months later, the house was sold privately for 90 million. A smaller house in a quiet suburb was purchased for 18 million, and the rest was secured quietly.
At home, nothing looked suspicious. No arguments, no sudden tension.
Weeks before leaving, clothes were gradually packed under the excuse of sending them to the dry cleaner. Then one day, he travelled for what was described as a consultancy job. He never returned to that house again.
The truth surfaced the day the new owner sent people to inspect it. Panic started immediately, his children that haven't checked on him since he travelled started calling nonstop, asking what was going on. That was when he confirmed it himself.
Yes, the house had been sold. By then, nothing could be undone. Attempts were made to trace his new location, but he had already moved carefully and deliberately. He said something that stayed with me since I heard the story:

*“I didn’t abandon my family… I simply inherited myself before they buried me alive."*
DID HE TAKES A GOOD DECISION?

*👉BREAKING NEWS: HE DID NOT RISE UP ALONE; OTHERS WERE RAISED ALONG TOO🙏*

"....The earth shook, the rocks split apart, *the graves broke open, and many of God's people who had died were raised to life.They left the graves, and after Jesus rose from death,* they went into the Holy City, where many people saw them.When the army officer and the soldiers with him who were watching Jesus saw the earthquake and everything else that happened, they were terrified and said, *“He really was the Son of God!”* Matthew 27:51-54 [GNT].

One of the greatest differences in the resurrection testimonies of Jesus Christ is that many saints who were known to have long died and were buried came out of their graves at his resurrection and were seen again in the city! Just imagine seeing again your loved ones who died! It was the breaking news at the time. Soldiers who guarded the grave testified, Jesus Christ himself appeared to many people after His resurrection. *The greatest of it all is that all of us who believe in Jesus Christ become direct beneficiaries of His resurrection and ascension*. We participate in His glorious life! Read this: "Also, God raised us up with Christ, so that we now sit with Christ in heaven. God has done this for us because we are united with Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2:6 [EASY]. I really pity people who experience a little lifting in life and they cannot allow their loved ones to share in that little transcient glory. The Son of God gave us a model, He bettered the lives of those who believed in Him. Joseph was a great model too. He invited His loved ones to share in the glory of the great life. Genesis 45: 9-11[GNT] says: “Now hurry back to my father and tell him that this is what his son Joseph says: *‘God has made me ruler of all Egypt; come to me without delay. You can live in the region of Goshen, where you can be near me—you, your children, your grandchildren, your sheep, your goats, your cattle, and everything else that you have. If you are in Goshen, I can take care of you.* There will still be five years of famine; and I do not want you, your family, and your livestock to starve.’” *Shamefully, some people when things become good or better with them, that is when they abandon people who raised, supported, encouraged,prayed or fought for them. How has your rising benefitted your loved ones?* Thank You dear LORD for raising me up and making me share in Your rising. No person will put me down anymore. They didn't die for me, they didn't raise me up; I receive the multiplied grace to help all my loved ones have a taste of my rising in Jesus Christ name. Amen. Good morning and happy Easter.🙏
