Gift of God
This time I can say that God fulfilled one of my dreams
which I had for Milange. For long time I was going
there…I think for 4 years: had youth conferences, visit the
churches, leaders seminars. It is always a privilege for me
to be there because of the great people that live there.
They have a hunger for God that compels every one that
gets there to continue in teaching and preaching the
Gospel. It is rewarding to make the long trip and be there.
About the dream that was fulfilled it was about having
Pastor Armando and Mae Lurdes there with us:
preaching, teaching, sharing and imparting into the lives
of this precious people. We could see right away result
and real impact in their lives. The other part of the dream
was to be with Mae Nicky organizing and having a
women conference, of course with the great help of Mae
Lurdes. This was the first time we had something with
women in that area. We always had youth, children,
leaders but it was so hard to get the ladies together. They
are left always to cook, serve, and take care of the house.
But it was time for them to hear the truth of God for them
and for their lives. That they are valuable and precious in
God’s eyes and they have a special place in His plans for
Mozambique.
We had
around 120
women and
probably
more than
100 men.
Sometimes
when we
would have
them together
it was over
300.

Pastor Armando, Jansen and Pastor Goncalves took the
men separate and taught them strong principles and laws
of life according to the Word. They learned how to love
and appreciate their wives. With the ladies we couldn’t
go so far. Lurdes started with salvation, Daena about
repentance, I spoke about their value in God’s eyes and
Mae Nicky taught on Holy Spirit.
We felt that we put the foundation, a start in their
relationship with God and their families.
It was very special one day in the morning when Holy
Spirit took over during worship and started minister
freedom and deliverance. We didn’t continue with our
programs but we enjoyed letting the Spirit of God to flow
in our midst. When it was a call for prayer and breaking
through everybody wanted to come forward. So, they
formed 4 lines and each one of them was minister to.
Just before Mae Lurdes shared her testimony: where she
was coming from and her deliverance from all the curse
and tradition that her family was into. Her testimony I
believe broke the walls of fear and things they hided for
years were
coming up.
During the time
of ministering
they brought
forward things
that linked them
to their past,
things that
formed a
stronghold in
their lives: witchcraft amulets or cigarettes. What a
victory against our enemy when we burned them and
people around were renouncing their old fear and link
with the devil.
One lady came forward and confessed that she was a
known witchdoctor but now she met with Jesus and she
wanted us to go at her house and burn and destroy
everything she was using to deceive people. She asked
forgiveness to the people from her community and
declare that from now everybody will know that she
serves the true God. Thank you Jesus for the power of
salvation and deliverance that is in your blood!!
All in all… our time in Milange was amazing.
Thank you Jesus for this great opportunity! Give us
more! We want to go!!!
Dearest friends, in the month of September with God’s
help I will be visiting United States. I pray and believe
God that I will see many of you. In the next newsletter I
will send to you my itinerary. Until than if you would like
to communicate write to me please - via email.
With much love in Christ from Mozambique,
