Faith Rewards: Assignment To Oil Birthplace Azerbaijan
Father God is indeed great! After three years of time off , the Company I have worked with ,recalled my services to work with them again. T’was a glorious moment in April 1997 !
Saipem [Oil Pipeline Company] had offered me a job assignment in Azerbaijan a country known to be where the Ark of Noah landed , (supposedly in the Mt Ararat in the Armenian border). It was a state in the former Soviet Union and was the world’s number 1 Oil producing field at the turn of the 20th century. Oil derricks were sprouting everywhere! Perhaps John Rockefeller had gotten his wealth from there.
It was also a source of the best Persian carpets in the world. Yes, indeed it was a blessing to have been in that perfect peaceful place.
Oh how wonderful to have traveled again! I enjoyed the plane ride, saw new places and met new people. It was very interesting but most of all, truly rewarding.
3 years back, in 1994, I resigned from the same Company I had been with since 1987 in order to do some community service in my town , “pro bono”, “gratis”. It was a selfless experience which, interestingly, had brought some sense of fulfillment and heavenly peace. I was happy!
The trip to Azerbaijan was of a Divine Providence, I know.
I could only be thankful for the love He always gives. He is great!
(Romans 8:28)
“All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose”
A Close Encounter With Nigerian Rebels In The Jungles of Nembe
It was in the year 2000….
Big and tall trees could be seen along the swamp while the rays of the sun break through the leaves. The place was so peaceful and quiet except for the sound of the wild birds. They were music to the ear! Air was so fresh! The deep forest was almost like a Paradise!
The speedboat which carried us from the Port Harcourt Base was zigzagging along the river. The trips were usually enjoyable and interesting. Life indeed had so much to offer! Our destination was to the Houseboats stationed along the swamp nearby the oil pipeline project in Nembe.
One evening we were unexpectedly visited by some rebels. Armed with long bladed weapons and guns they had demanded for some things they badly needed. It was a frightening “face-to-face” with them .What a life changing moment! There was nothing left to do but pray, deeply, and hoping to reach the Heavens instantly!
And God listened! The fear was soon gone. Lessons were learned. Life depended on its Maker!
Pray! Talk with Him heart-to-heart!
He has been waiting for you.
He loves.
He will always do.
We all are His children. Trust and strive to be happy!
Isaiah 45:12
“It is I who made the earth and created mankind upon it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts.”
Penniless First Trip to America
The sky was bright and the clouds were floating like white cotton balls in the air. The sun was up in the horizon as the chopper we were on was on its way to the oil pipeline project offshore of New Orleans. It was morning of February 1998.
“I am in America!” , I said to myself. Thank God, it was a very beautiful sunny day!
It was the best time to converse with the Lord on my mind during the trip. I was grateful but gently asked Him why He had allowed my pocket money to be lost in Amsterdam Schipols airport during transit. It was all the money I’ve got.
In my heart He said, “ It’s okay! You have nothing in your pocket yet you have entered America !”
It has become possible then to travel without money after all!
Isaiah 55. “Hey there! All who are thirsty, come to the water!
Are you penniless? Come anyway—buy and eat!……”
“…..I’m making a lasting covenant commitment with you,
the same that I made with David: sure, solid, enduring love.”

At Dawn in Papua New Guinea
The sun was shining bright across the sea early this morning!
It was so good watching it slowly rising from the horizon.
The orange background began becoming golden !
The scene brought back home memories of younger days.
At dawn one could hear cocks crowing , announcing the start of a new day!
Squeaking sounds of water pump seemed to have said, “Here is water , it’s free! Take as much as you want! Unlimited!.
The pets and the plants were joyful! They knew someone would look after them too.
And this is life!
This is a day, not just any other day!
A precious time greatly offered from the loving heart of God.
For you.
May we be grateful to Him ? Thank God!
