In her usual style of reflecting on the good things the lord has done for her since she graciously relocated from Nigeria to United States of America through a visa lottery, Aminat Plass Saliu, a graduate of Agricultural Economics from the prestigious College of Agricultural Science in Olabisi Onabanjo University, Yewa Campus until her sojourn as a Nursing Assistant in US in an online testimony on her Facebook page appealed to Nigerians to remain steadfast, unwavering to the storm of the moment, because adversity has an advantage just as there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Aminat who never thought her dream of becoming a practicing Nurse in United States of America could become a reality considering the financial constraint of her parent some years back said if God could do it for her, he will do it for anyone in due time.
"If you are still expecting the manifestation of God's grace in your life, don't give up.
"It might look like you are delayed but its GOD protecting you from what the enemy could do to you. Remeber GOD told joseph to run to another town because the king was jealous of his glory and was going to have him killed.
Below is the details of the testimony she shared on her Facebook page to encourage struggling Nigerians not to give up.
"I was with about 5 friends ,just talking about life, when one of my friends said how her father wanted her to become a doctor and study perhaps in the U.S ,everyone was suggesting how they will love to do that but hear me clearly
"These are my words :: Haha ha even this school it's cooperative money(In Nigeria when you say cooperative money it means borrowed money) meaning I knew to the T the impossibility of studying anything other than the present one am studying because of the simple fact ,that my Dad had had done his best to send all of us to school despite not having a lot, he did his very best.
"So I disqualified my self". She said.
"2 years later I was told I won a Visa Lottery, even till date I didnt know when I played(one of my beautiful sis jogged my memory about it,they said I did it out of curiousity) well GOD works in many ways.GOD can include you even in what you did not include yourself all for Good
"Did the devil not try to stop it? Yes many trouble ,when the enemy was carrying my matter to their sea, GOD removed it and hid it? Meaning GOD will put you in his save haven
"It might look like you are delayed but its GOD protecting you from what the enemy could do to you.
"Remember GOD told joseph to run to another town because the king was jealous of jesus glory and was going to have him killed,
"So dont worry about the delay, continue to trust in GOD.
"I was in NYSC camp and it was about 3 to 4 days for my lottery time to expire, my Visa was held back because of issues that only GOD knew the reason. Surprisingly, 3days to the end of the camp, my VIsa was released and I get to come by Cooperative money again". She smiled
"To the glory of GOD, that degree and career that I thought was impossible feat, am doing it now effortlessly. I return the GLory to GOD
"Did I merit it ? No
Was it someone that paved my way ? No but GoD
"All these happened before knowing GOD. He does good things for you still as a sinner, what about knowing him and spending time in his presence, can you imagine what more he will do for you? She asked".
"My brother and sister, GOD has not forgotten you, just continue to stay in his presence. He will do the impossible for you".
