Hope you’re all doing well. Thanks for the prayers! What a time to be alive. We have just witnessed one of the most phenomenal times ever! People-groups that were previously shut out to the Gospel have now heard the clear presentation of the message with over 4,000 decisions made. 

Revelation 5:9

And they sang a new song, saying, 

    “Worthy are you to take the scroll

        and to open its seals,

    for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God

        from every tribe and language and people and nation,

The ongoing work with Bible translation in an Amazonas language is going on well as well. And a team is currently on ground helping out with the literacy needs as well. 

We ventured into 3 unreached clans in the Amazon. You would recall that last year some group of principal shamans had a vision about a messenger from God that would give them a heavenly message. They were five in number and had all similar dream with their description of the messenger matching my description, they all had been given as well the name of people group we were visiting last year. Those shamans were saved and baptised and received the Holy Spirit. They extended an invitation for us to come to their communities. So, this year we made that far and treacherous journey. 

These beloved souls had gone ahead of us as forerunners to prepare their people group before we arrived. 

Isaiah 66:8

   Who has heard such a thing?

        Who has seen such things?

    Shall a land be born in one day?

        Shall a nation be brought forth in one moment?

    For as soon as Zion was in labor

        she brought forth her children.

We witnessed a fulfilment almost the entire community surrendering to Jesus. After they made decisions for Jesus we witnessed massive exorcisms of demonic influences in a corporate expression. People were being set free from all manner of demonic oppression. Demons were leaving and large cries & screaming were heard all over. The Kingdom of God invaded this community. 

-We went into the Health Center to pray for the sick and we emptied the health centre with the exception of the medics. 

*Cases of severe diagnose fibromyalgia were instantly healed and the symptoms they felt  left instantly with a surge of strength. 

*Several cases of undiagnosed, mysterious but debilitating sickness left. They packed their belongings and were discharged. 

*Several cases of people booked for a specialist surgeon who was to come to perform surgery on the protrusion of hernias were all healed miraculously. The protrusion disappeared and the discomfort it caused was gone. The medics examining & re-examining and to their amazement they couldn’t find the growth. 

*Cases of breast lumps disappearing during prayers and after subsequent scans they were all cleared. 

*Degenerative eye conditions as a result of age healed. 

*Several cases of different types of diseases and infections healed. Even those wearing medical mask were healed and after prayers they pulled off their mask and they were breathing well and their chest cleared. 

We had a foretaste of Glory. 

Hebrews 6:5

and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come,

We had such a united team. Thanks for your prayers. There was no fear of traditional practice or witchcraft, we felt a sense of dominion. 

The Spirit of Faith was alive. 

We have laid the groundwork for the opening of a local assembly and for the ecclesia to gather together. It is quite different from the infrastructure required in the western church. We believe an unshakable church is one that functions in any generation, in any place with any people, despite any natural circumstances. 

Acts 2:42

And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.

-We established 15 power houses(Home Churches) spread along various clans. 

-Over 5,000 people heard the Gospel. 

URGENT PRAYER NEEDS 

-Our next citywide outreach to Valencia, Maracaibo & Caracas all in Venezuela have been cancelled. All passenger airlines flying to Venezuela have suspended their flights due to warning from the US Government to stay clear of the air space of Venezuela. Thank God I hadn’t travelled earlier, it would have left me in a precarious situation. Those outreaches have been postponed to the other half of next year. We have already spent quite a bit of funds in organisation. We are just putting a pause to it for now. Please keep praying for good outcomes. 

-Immediately another door has opened for us to go to  Oaxaca & Veracruz. These region of Mexico are prime with high level violence and cartels activities. Pray for our Gospel Initiatives in these cities. Pray for protection and that people would have open hearts to the message of the Gospel and that The Word will be confirmed with signs following.

-Pray for the new established converts in the Amazon. That they would remain firm in Christ and continue in the faith, and be well discipled.

-Pray for the Bible translation work of Wycliffe and other current literacy initiatives being carried out by other mission organisations. 

-Pray that Revelation Knowledge would flood the hearts of new disciples. 

Ephesians 1:17

a prayer from the Apostle Paul asking God, ‘that the Father of glory and Lord of Jesus Christ, will grant believers a "spirit of wisdom and revelation" so they can know Him better.’
