East Africa trip Feb 2011 - Part 11
Tuesday 15 February 2011
Report from Nakuru, Kenya:
We arrived in Nakuru on Monday after a five-and-a-half hour drive without stops.
The person we were originally due to be working with in Nakuru had gone, quit on us and we could not get hold of him. So instead God had different plans. We contacted 2 pastors that had contacted Tony on Facebook. They helped us find a hotel and God has blessed us with a discount. They had gathered about 15 pastors for us to meet on Tuesday to have a conference.
On Tuesday we met with about 13 pastors, in a church near the slums of Nakuru.
While Tony was speaking on God is a God of grace and truth, 2 people came in asking if they could get born again. One used to be a christian but had turned away and wanted to come back to God. Tony stopped what he was saying and the 2 men got born again.
1 Thess 1:5 says:
"For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake."
This was the verse Tony had asked us to look up before the people came in, but he did not have time to look at it until after the 2 men got born again. So God definitely provided a sign.
The overall theme was the grace of God. We were with them from 11 am till 4.30 pm, without stopping for lunch. They were desperate for the teaching that was being brought.
We laid hands and prophesied for those that wanted it. God definitely moved and set people free. We left with them asking when we are coming back.
We leave Nakuru tomorrow (Wednesday) and drive to Nairobi to get our plane home. This has been a very good trip. All 3 of us felt we have broken out during these 2 weeks. We have been surprised how hungry people have been and how they have sat for long periods of time soaking up all that has been brought. We are wanted back everywhere we have spoken. We feel that we have met some new people that can be very significant in bringing the Kingdom of God.
Thank you for your support and prayers.
