God is Amazing!

The title says it all. I am in awe of God! I pray that the things that I'm experienced stay etched in my brain and heart of how God has been moving. I'm almost speechless. These last couple weeks have just been so fun to watch but also mind blowing at the things I've experienced and learning. This last week of outreaches have been awesome. We began doing the outreaches in the village of Wachange everyday last week beginning on tuesday and in four days not sure if this number is correct but close to about 25 people or more came to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior!

Many quite a few people these two women especially that i can think of were passing by the area while we were worshiping, i believer that it may have been a mother and daughter and as we were worshiping I was watching them and stopped and stayed for worship and ended up staying the whole time. I'm not to sure which one came first but they responded to gospel message and gave their lives to Jesus! One of them had constant bleeding for about a year every time she would go to the restroom. She gets prayed for and gets touched by God and she felt something cold in her stomach and she new right then she was healed! The other lady had pain in her foot and was healed! Come on Jesus!

See the people here believe in the Spirit realm very much so and the works of darkness are so tangible to them here and the devil keeps these people bound in much fear and are oppressed by him in so many ways. So for the these people if we just come with a pretty message but it doesn't do anything for them to get them out of the darkness they are in is useless to them. God desires to meet the needs of people but ultimately to get to their hearts. Paul says in 1 Corinthians 2:4-5 "My message and my preaching were very plain. Rather than using cleaver and persuasive speeches, I relied only on the power of the Holy Spirit. I did this so you would trust not in human wisdom but in the power of God." I've seen many times God heal someone just so that it will open the way for Him to get to their heart. God is in love with people and desires to see them free from the lies and works of the devil. Most of all He wants the people he created to come to know the truth who He is and what Jesus did for them and it that set them free!

Its been such a learning process here of experiencing many things that in many ways I don't experience in America, but God is the same everywhere and His plan is the same its to set people free by giving them the truth of who God is so that He can set the people free. As we are faithful to minister the gospel, God will always back His word!

The first half of my time here we were only doing the outreach on Tuesdays in that village, and Pastor Lewison said to me that the people have come to him and said we love when you come, because every time you guys come the devil doesn't bother us. Now that we've been there every day either doing the out reach or cell group the devil is paralyzed from his work because people have been coming to the Lord! Amen!

I'm humbled and honored to be apart of what God is doing here. I'm believing God for a greater harvest of souls, because He died for each one of them. Sorry for no pictures this time cant find my cord for my camera, I will put some up shortly. Be blessed everyone!

Shift in the Program

On my last post I said that I felt a shift in my Spirit like God was going to change or do something different with me last part of this trip with me.So many things have been happening in such a short time since my last post, just over this last weekend.

Pastor Lewison told me he felt that for that last weeks of me being here, instead of leading the boys cell group on Wednesday's, i should go up with him to his cell group in the village of Wachange.This is where there has been alot demonic oppression through witch craft. Since I've been here we've either did house visits or outreach in that area. Pastor Lewsion's heart is to not let up in this area till he sees the breakthrough of the Kingdom of God, and  the kingdom of darkness grip broken off. We've been hitting this area pretty hard. Please partner with us in prayer to see this happen. Your partnership in prayer is the power behind the ministry here and everywhere else that my brothers and sisters are ministering. We cannot thank you enough for fighting along side and supporting us.

Friday in the late afternoon the youth were practicing to lead worship for Sunday service. Pastor Lewison said that afterward we were going to a cell group in Wachange. I was like,"Cool." We got there late at about 9pm or so, it was pitch black outside. We get to a house where everyone is waiting for the pastor to begin. We begin with prayer, then we get into worship. Let me tell you, it does not matter what time of day it is out here, these people WORSHIP! From old to the young. Most of the time its the little kids leading the worship, I'm telling you I feel the heavens open up when these kids worship. Then....all of a sudden, we began to pray and there was a shift in the atmosphere, from worship to ware fare. You started to hear everyone fighting in prayer and I felt the Lord just tell me,"Don't stop praying, keep going, pray through in the Spirit." So finally it finished and pastor called people up for prayer. Let me tell you this was probably one of the most powerful prayer meetings I've been to since I've been here. The Holy Spirit fell in the place so hard the power of God was just touching. Then all of a sudden the warfare began again. A lady that i encountered the first week here asked for prayer to get free from a stronghold in her life, the Lord touched her and the demon begins to show himself...Look, I know some people when they read this will question this and i understand because we don't see this often in the States but let me tell you this stuff is REAL. I'm getting this first hand. It felt like forever to cast this demon out but this lady is now free by the power of God!

Momma Stamp and John

Saturday I had the awesome privilege to walk down to a village called Njoro where most of our boys are from, but I went specifically to meet Johns family and Gilbert's mom. It was so awesome! First I met John's aunt Momma Stamp who just loved me to pieces as soon as I walked in the door, she was so great. She Had been complaining of high blood pressure, and pain in her body.The doctors also said that she could not work outside in the sun for very long. Well after we had some awesome tea and we prayed for her, and the SON healed her, We left the house and we went to do more visits. we came back through by Momma stamps house and shes outside helping some guys move dirt! Praise God

Gilbert and his Momma

 Next up was Momma Gilbert we reach her small house which is not even a half a block a way just to give you an idea of how close these families live from each other. Momma Gilbert is sitting in the front of her house in pain (in her left leg and hip)  Due to a  deep cut in the bottom of her foot that was not healing. It was causing pain every where else. We prayed for her a couple times and she said that the pain was not as bad as before, through this though we have been able to minister the gospel to her. Shes not a believer but we were able to explain that the Lord can heal you whenever He wants to, but more so hes wanting to get to the real issue which is the condition of her heart. Please be partner with us to see momma  Gilbert healed and saved in Jesus name! 

 

 

Sunday I had the privilege once again to bring the Word of God to the church. God is so good! Im spending alot of time with the Lord and reading the word alot. I was so trying to prepare to see what the Lord wanted me to speak on and my mind was going a crazy with so much till Sunday morning. I just told the Lord whatever is on your heart for the people just fill my mouth with it...and He did! I love it when the Lord does that because it keeps us humbled, knowing that none of it came from you. its simply just the work of the Spirit. The Spirit led to speak against fear that keeps many people bound, and also to speak on the kingdom of God and the power of the Holy Spirit that lives within them to trust God at His word.

Even though the Kingdom of Darkness looks like its in control and advancing God has it all under contro.l  Hes not worried because He already has the victory. God is on the move all over the world and is setting people free. I'm so glad to be apart of what He is doing! Its fun and exciting to see God breakthrough and bring Light where there is darkness. The Darkness has no choice but to flee when the Light enters the room.

Soldiers of Christ stand up!Lets fight this battle where ever God has you, he has you there for a reason and it's to advance His kingdom. There's heaven and there's hell and in between is You!!!  You get the opportunity to bring the Kingdom of God just like King Jesus did when He was on earth. Count it a privilege and an honor! Love my Kingdom family. Be blessed everyone in Jesus name!

So much to share so little time....

 

More to come stay tuned!
