To call me I’m getting almost daily calls that go through to 574 217 0552 so if you want, try at least a couple times before 3p EST. I usually get a couple USA calls that ring, but they are gone before I hear them.
Amazing Prophetic Meeting in Gisenyi, Rwanda
Today June 6, 2008, we had an amazing encounter with two great leaders who are a team in both Goma & Gisenyi. While Safari waited with Anny, his spiritual mother, he saw a vision of Provi (that’s what her family calls her) & I with only one face, but he did not know we were married, so he said, “Why? Are they two whites or two Africans?” We had about two hours of fellowship & revelations from the 3 most mature of us. I got more revelation, like visions, with them than I’ve had on this whole trip, which is typical for me. When I’m with prophetically gifted people, I often get visions & interpretations of visions or dreams.
When I looked at their faces I saw both natural & spiritual strength. Safari is an apostolic & prophetic church planter of many churches in DRCongo & Gisenyi, Rwanda. He lives in Gisenyi, but does much work in more than one DRCongo area. Anny is a prophetic intercessor who is well known among leaders in Rwanda and elsewhere. I see myself as an apostolic teacher also functioning as a pastor of leaders. My wife is an apostolic, evangelist, & teacher, also functioning as a pastor of leaders. She has been having revelatory dreams often in the morning while I’m exercising & listening to good teaching I downloaded from www.morningstarministries.org. It’s good to have high energy & discipline, but I’d be happy to have more spiritual dreams. But God usually teams me up with people who have more active prophetic revelation than I.
Anny saw us traveling to Taiwan, which confirms the revelation to Bienvenu that we would travel to Asia. Also I have unusual knowledge about Taiwan, because I did a long report on Taiwan about 40 years ago. I didn’t know why I chose that country. They said we would work in South Africa (where I’ve been invited to teach), but warned us not to go to Mozambique. Anny, said my wife would have twins, although she did not know that has been her desire & prayer. They said God was going to bless me with a son or sons, since so far I only have daughters.
With tears in my eyes I say that Anny saw my daughter, Elizabeth working with me in New Wave Ministry, & continuing it after I pass away from active service. She did not know that I’ve planned to begin to fast & pray for Elizabeth, because right now she refuses to communicate with me, but she was with me planting the first two house churches in Burundi & told the whole group that it was the best church experience she had had in years. We were very close in her childhood, but she was severely wounded by my leaving home after my upset wife said she would tell the police falsely that I was dangerous & other false things her mother told her, like I did not love my children. She is two years older than my wife.
But at this meeting I had more revelation than my wife, although she had many confirmations of previous dreams. All our hearts were truly knit together & God is fulfilling the prophetic word that he was still choosing our leaders in the New Wave-Goma area. I saw a vision of Safari having the glittering sword of the Lord & glittering armor for him and about 4 other warriors on each side of him. Then I saw an army of angels descend on Gisenyi, filling the place with His glory. After that, I saw Safari in a humble African house in humble African clothes sitting & getting wisdom, like I usually get it, just in thoughts & knowing things. A humble lady brought him vegetables that grow underground, like radishes. I believe they represent that God feeds our spirit through others that are humble & the nourishment He gives us, grows out of sight in humble places.
Safari also saw a vision, which he drew on paper that he would establish great leaders for New Wave Ministry on 3 continents. There would be a strong bond between the leaders and that from Asia & Africa two other continents would be reached. One of those continents would also be reached from the 3rd continent, which was North America. Before he shared, I was surprised that Australia came into my mind. So I think that one of the two new continents was Australia. I have a heart for South America, but I know that many African Christians have a longing to take the gospel back to Europe. They did not know that God had spoken to Bienvenu & I that we would travel together to Asia.
Safari also saw that I would spend more time in Africa than any other continent, which is what I desire. They told us that my office would not have to continue to be in my back-pack (my computer). I think it may be in Gisenyi, because our ministry is growing strong in nearby Goma, with many supportive relatives in both cities & I have desired to have our home in Rwanda, because is such a amazingly good place to raise children, have guests from many countries, with no Visa required for Americans & all of the countries we work in so far. The economy & infrastructure is rapidly growing in Rwanda & it is a safe refuge from wars & crime in nearby African countries. But Tanzania & Uganda are peaceful, too with improving government in both countries.
I don’t care how all this happens, just as long as we can effectively make disciples who love Jesus with all their hearts!
We’ve given up on plans to visit Burundi, because we don’t have the $350 2-day seminar expenses + travel & Visas, but I’d rather go when we can spend at least a week in the provinces where we are expanding. So instead we came to Gisenyi on Wed meeting with leaders Thursday, & now Friday after meeting this morning with Safari & Anny, we are meeting 3 other leaders including one who speaks English well, but now my wife is interpreting pretty well for me & helps the other interpreters. Right now they are discussing the shipwreck with dishonest Gabriel to find out what really happened because he made many false statements about my wife to other members. We still have about 100 house churches, although some have been discouraged, others have multiplied. I just explained that we should inform our members that he has been dis-fellowshipped to both protect the church & to bring him to repentance & restoration from greed resulting in dishonesty & theft.
Today, Sun, June 8, 2008 I wept this morning for joy as my wife, in my arms, remembered more prophecy from her brother-in-law & told me her thoughts about coming to the USA. She told me over & over how he told her, “I see God on your bridegroom. I see the face of God.!” She told me she knew I had a lot of wisdom & experience in many things, as she wiped the tears from my face. She said she was happy that Safari & Anny had prophesied that Africa would be the foundation of our International Ministry. She said she didn’t want to live in the USA, because she was afraid the culture would corrupt her & was happy that they said, “You will only go to visit America. It will not be your home. Your home & your husband will be here in Africa most of the time.” She said she understood why her Visa had been delayed. Because God loves our ministry & it was important for her to stay in these times. She is in no hurry now to come to the USA & looks forward to moving to Gisenyi to work in Goma & with New Wave leaders in Goma & Safari in Gisenyi. That may change after she misses me, but she plans to wait until she gets her Rwandan-East African Passport in August to travel to Tanzania without the $50 Visa to see if she can get a Visa in a country where it is very easy now to get US visas. We will pray about whether to bring her here for the House2House conference & stay until my busy fall season is done in Nov, or if I come after the conference for a short Sep. trip while my business is slow.
We’ve had a wonderful visit with David & her cousin Anifa for 2.5 wks which I’ll share more about later.
Overview of the trip accomplishments This trip was very different from previous trips, just as my last USA “visit” was different than the previous returns to the USA. I’ll list the greatest accomplishments in the order of significance as I see them: 1. We built our good marriage relationship with much time together. 2. We got the dowry, civil, & traditional marriage ceremony’s finished so my wife feels free to do ministry anywhere without offending relatives or traditional thinking Christians. We’ve had no significant misunderstandings, since our civil wedding May 22. For some reason significant things happen to me on the 22nd of many, but not all, months. 3. I invested a lot of time with David Saku (Tanzania) & Justus (Uganda) seeing with my own eyes significant change in their lives & really grateful hearts for the time we spent together. I feel the most fruit has come from time I’ve spent with leaders like Bienvenu, & David in the past. 4. We spent 2 days this week sharing with 3 Goma New Wave leaders & divinely appointed partners Safari & Anny. I told my wife we should have regular leader training in July & August when my wife gets a house here in Gisenyi, because it is very close to our leaders in Goma. So we are rebuilding our DRCongo leadership through much time sharing & scripture-based training. 5. I’ve enjoyed teaching, a few times with David, in many places. You never know when someone’s life will be changed & decide to join us in the future. Sunday & Monday we go back to share in previous places. 6. We matured our business relationships & I bought many products that should give us good ministry-supporting income when they finally arrive or are found by the post-office. 7. I’ve almost finished writing “How to Get/Stay Younger” after having time to read again “Sugar Blues”. I think this is something I can sell for support in the USA, which could lead to selling many other books, like “The Passionate Heart of God” which I already finished & “My amazing Life” which I’ve started. This may fulfill my written goal/priority to publish & sell books. My gift in writing is to say the most important information without too many words. The almost finished book is very short, but life changing for most people. If you want an emailed copy just let me know, but since I wrote it to support our ministry, I’ll only send it if you can give at least a $10 donation.
