GOD IS ON THE MOVE!

GOD IS ON THE MOVE TODAY!
I just returned from a special week of meetings and services in the nation of Kenya, and I am happy to report that "God is on the move today, in the nation of Kenya."  Years ago, my wife and I had the honor of preaching 'Good News' Crusades under the Gospel tents in the nation of Sierra Leone.  There was a song we sang every night in those three weeks of services -- "God's Spirit is moving ... all over the world"  Well, HE still is moving.

Back in March of this year, a team of Pastors and lay ministers went to Nakuru, Kenya for a week of services. (I have reported on this blog, before, the results).  Not only did 6,000 + people get saved --but Maasai leaders were lifted up in the Lord -  God sovereignly moved among the Mungiki youth -- even Muslims were being converted.  That's why I went back this time, to prepare the way for Biblical training for the Maasai tribe and for the other groups who have come to Christ.
"
I had several meetings with the Bishops and Pastors among the Maasai tribe.  Each time they told me how much their Pastors need Biblical training.  One Bishop expressed grave concern over false religions and doctrines that are coming into the country, and how his men desperately needed to have a solid foundation in the Word.

God has led us at ICCL to a strategic alliance with Dr. Berin Gilfillan, the founder and CEO of the International School of Ministry (ISOM).  Dr. Gilfillan has compiled the 'best of the best' Biblical teachers and Pastors, who have video taped their instruction (now over 160 hours of training) - and it is translated into over 70 languages of the world.


Through the use of technology -- all the 160 hours of training, which is translated into Swahili (the working language of Kenya), is available on a hard-drive which connects through a special box directly to a TV.  Notes will be provided and these Maasai men will be trained, along with other ministers who will teach in "live" sessions.  Thank God, we live in a day, where this is possible.

Incidentally, these ISOM teachings are available in English for any and all churches here in America to use to train your leaders. Got a Hispanic congregation in your church - get ISOM in English/Spanish. It works!!! 
 Check it out on their web site:  ISOM

One of the highlights of this trip was the occasion when I got to meet and spend some time with the national "chairman" of the former "Mungiki" group.  These young men were organized back in the 80's by the former President of Kenya -- they soon became the "Mafia" of Kenya.  Over the years they have ruled by intimidation, robbery, extortion, and murder.  They are feared by all.
Good News -- the national "chairman" has become a real Christian - and is now teaching his men to work honest jobs.  Hundreds of these former "Mungiki" have now become Christians.  They desperately need Biblical training -- NOW !


I met with a large group of these dear "brothers and sisters" in Nakuru -- and they begged for a school, and promised that 100 men would come to the first class.

What we need now is more financial partners to make this possible.  A wonderful church congregation in Panama City, FL. - St. Andrews Assembly of God - pastored by my good friend, Jeff Scalf, has given the "seed" money to get the first school going for the Maasai.

We need a school for the Mungiki!  We need a school for the Sudanese refugees.  We need a school for the Muslim ladies (now over 17) in Nakuru, who are coming to know Jesus Christ as Lord (not just a prophet).  We need a school for the prisoners (both men and women) in Nakuru, who have come to Christ.  We need this NOW!  

I talked with a wonderful man of God in Nakuru, a Bishop over 85 churches, and he begged me to bring this training to his men.  The need is great!  The door is open!  The time is NOW!

What can you do?   Two things:(1) Pray, (2) Give!

In these strategic days, the devil, "as a roaring lion" is seeking to devour all he can. Let's support the work of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah - JESUS - and let's equip Kenyans NOW to win their people to the LION OF JUDAH!
