Nigerian rising singer Spyro has shared an emotional reflection on Instagram, expressing concern for future generations of parents.
Recalling his journey shaped by his mother’s strong faith and prayers, Spyro stated the transformative power of maternal support.
Spyro narrated how his mother once visited him in boarding school and broke down in tears after seeing him in a mess. Rather than give up on him, she always confessed positive words to him, telling him how great he is.
He revealed that as he grew up, things got really tough for him but she never for once stopped telling him positive words and continued praying for him.
Telling his fans not to underestimate the power of a praying mother, he expressed fear about the new generation of parents, especially their prayer life.
Spyro noted how troubles don’t recognize bad bitch, Gen Z baddies or big boy.
“When I was a kid, I was far from greatness … I was the odd one, more like the rejected stone. I was a write off. I remember my mum coming to visit me in boarding school one day and she bursted into tears after seeing the mess I was BUT in all of these she would call me and say “I know you are great, God told me and many prophets have confirmed it and if God has said it, IT WILL HAPPEN”
I grew up and things got really tough but she never for once stopped telling me “SANMI , OGO E MA TAN KARI AYE “ and she will look at me and say “except it’s not GOD that said it” she held on to the prophesy constantly praying, even when I lost hope she kept #FAITH and SUDDENLY in 2023 out of nowhere everything changed.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A PRAYING MOTHER and this makes me wonder if mën and women of my generation can pray as our parents did cos WHO WILL STAND IN THE GAP FOR THESE NEW KIDS” life troubles do not recognize “BAD BITCH” “GENZ BADDIES” “ZADDY” “BIG BOY” life problems only respond to power
OH MY GENERATION, WAKE UP FROM THY SLUMBER
A lot of us are carried by our parents prayer ,what will carry our own kids ?
“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force”.
