Forgiveness, Restoration and Revival In Kenya

We concluded our portion of the Maasai Vocational Training Institute today. Teaching will continue through Friday by local pastors who are well equipped to handle the subjects they are teaching. Dave Johnson and I will begin traveling back early Wednesday morning with meetings in Nairobi with a couple of pastors then a late night to London.

Just a couple of thoughts as this may be the last opportunity I have to blog until sometime Friday since we don't get back to Atlanta till late Thursday:

…When Pastors get hungry and thirsty for God, His manifest Presence will come. Not goofiness or spiritual stupidness (I know that's not a word) but the Presence of the Living God that edifies encourages and brings people closer to God and focuses ALL honors to Him. When men and women are willing to sit for 10 hours a day hearing intense teaching of the Word and staying engaged in the discussion of it, God's manifest Presence will come in a fresh and new way.

…we had 26 pastors register from 15 different denominations/church groups. Unity brings a saturation anointing. An anointing that makes us so slick satan cannot keep a hold on our lives.

…satan is always looking for a way to get us to abort the destiny of God. The Maasai are considered by some church growth specialists as being one of the forgotten people groups. But God has not forgotten them! During the last 24 hours, several ministers who were at odds with one another reconciled, forgave, and renewed a ministry partnership that satan almost destroyed. That was worth the entire trip! It took quite a bit of intercession, working, and teaching on forgiveness…but the Word of God WORKS!

…when birthing a new ministry there is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes that you can never discuss. But God sees the labor of the many people that it takes to put together a meeting like this; and He keeps very good records and pays very good dividends that are out of this world!

And thanks to all who give…and all who pray! God is getting us ready for a great payday!

Continue to pray for us that we will continue to follow God's will concerning the work here in Kenya. In August we will participate in the second session of the Institute; conduct a Pastors and Wives Conference; and we have also been invited to the Great Maasai Conference in Narok where well over 5,000 plus Maasai will gather from all across Kenya and Tanzania for worship, the Word and the Power of the Holy Ghost!

It's time for Massai!
