Beloved ones,
UPDATE ON GLOBAL PRAYERQUAKE 2004 (JANUARY 7, 2004)
It was a wonderful day with great manifestation of the presence of God.
The first speaker, Pastor Tim Olonade spoke on the topic: Present Day Christian
Missions Challenges in Nigeria and Africa. He encouraged Africans to act
because they have heard so much. In response to the message, hundreds of persons
went out to answer the call for missions and pledged allegiance to the Lamb of
God.
Speaking on the theme of the Conference, 'Conquering New Ground', Rev Mosy
Madugba, the International Co-ordinator of Ministers Prayer Network, reminded
Africans of their heritage - a land of preservation. Africa preserved Abraham
and his sons during the time of famine. God has also reserved ministers whom he
would use to fight the last battle for the kingdom of God and we have come into
the season of doing exploits for the Lord. We cannot fail Him.
Dr M Taylor-Pearce (Sierra Leone) who spoke on The Minister and His Family gave
reasons why problems should not corrupt marriages. God has brought together the
family to build a home for themselves. Words builds up or destroys home,
therefore good and positive things should be said to build the marriage. Rich
devotion with the Lord keeps a family unconquerable.
Bishop Bonifes Adoyo (Kenya) exposed the hideous strategies of Muslims to
Islamize all African nations and those plans are incubated in Abuja of Nigeria.
They gather everyday, make use of their youths, burn churches, buy over
institutions, occupy territories, go on suicide bombing, practice terrorism and
call all these exploits. Exploits that breed evil. They must be stopped, and
Christians, the church in Africa must arise against this destructive monster. A
word of prophecy came that God desire men who will not only give him their
hearts but their heads also. He said he would not find pleasure with those who
draw back.
We also had group meeting where the congregants were divided into 12 groups and
each assigned to a chairman to discuss Time for Everything - Ecclesiastics
3:1-11.This is for us to understand the time wherein we are, what we are
supposed to do and to do it.
In the evening session there was so much celebration of praises. The
International Co-ordinator had already declared the day as MPN Campus Chapter's
day. These young men and women were spurred in a great way to carry the vision
of God. They desired a car for this purpose. The church was encouraged by their
performance and they need our support for them to thrive.
Keep praying with us.
