Five years ago I shared a message
‘Burden Finding Feet’ as I described a burden that had been pressing very
heavily in my heart as I was responding to an invitation to minister in the DRC
even before knowing what it was.
It was as I ministered there that
God opened my eyes to see the burden and as I came back that God gave me the
strategy to respond to it. And I am still doing it.
You can read about it on my blog.
Today I want to share with us
something else.
In 2013 God gave me the vision of
preparing missionaries for the nations. Again I wrote it and posted on the blog
as ‘Varsity on the Hill’. He later gave me a vision concerning the enormity of
the vision. And it was huge, requiring enormous resources. Of course I continued
praying.
About three years ago God showed
me what I can call the introduction of that enormous vision. It explained how I
should start small. Again I posted on the blog as “Ministry and Mortality’.
Then I had more or less ‘forgotten’
about the land requirement due to the size of the land the vision required and
the fact that it is humanly impossible to be able to acquire land that size. But
I have no doubt that God has it somewhere and He will release it in His time. I
was therefore looking for a van to equip it for missions and related ministry. We
had even got the kind of van I required but it was bought before we could raise
the money required to buy it though it had been in that yard for over ten
years.
This year God impressed on me
that I should start running with the vision on a piece of land and opened the
door for that to happen.
As I write, I have bought a piece
of land in the Kabati area where I intend to put that vision on the ground.
I therefore want you to thank God
with me for that even as you pray that I will continue walking in tandem with
God’s revelation.
But I also want you to join me in
this venture.
How? You may be wondering.
I believe as you pray God will
give you a specific item to adopt and run with.
However there are a few things I need
to place on your desk for consideration.
I will need a house big enough to
host the missionaries God brings me to raise.
I will need a library and shelves.
I already have books though I won’t mind an addition after the library becomes
operational (of course after being built and equipped with shelves).
I will need a workshop, probably
a few for different skills with requisite tools.
I will also need a basic studio
for recording the Audio Bible in the vernaculars I can get people to read as
well as record songs the ‘students’ will be producing as they worship and grow.
I am sharing this as a prayer
request. God will fit you in His program as to what you should do, or even
whether you should do. Please look for the posts for the
vision’s details.
I am open for your partnership
and support.
God bless you
