Word of Life Devotional

After Seminary

by

Upon completion of my seminary training, the plan is to be engaged with training pastors and leading Church planting efforts in Africa. I believe it is God’s desire to fill Africa with Pastors who are theologically sound and and who lead bible-based, self-multiplying and self-sustaining churches. Theologically Sound Pastors is a huge need for the Church in Africa. So, Sound Pastors for Africa International Network (SPAIN) will be a network of people, churches and Organizations working together to promote pastoral training and Church planting in Africa, especially in neglected rural areas of the continent, beginning with Cameroon.

Pray with me that the Lord will clarify this assignment and help me add flesh to the skeletal visual structure during my time at DTS. Pray that God will also raise a team of faithful ministry partners during my time at the Seminary. I believe that when God gives an assignment, he also provides the people and resources to ensure the accomplishment of the assignment for His glory.

If you have any ideas to share or have a similar burden to see God fill Africa with sound pastors or are willing to be involved with SPAIN in any way, contact us to let us know. We will be in touch with you.

Romans Project Cameroon 2016.

by

When we made introductions during my very first World Missions class, my professor, Dr. Calenberg told me he was praying for a door to open into Cameroon for ministry. When we met in his office and he told me more about the Romans Project, he asked me if I will be willing to come alongside him to Cameroon to explore the possibility of bringing the project to pastors in Cameroon. It was a welcome invitation as that also opened a door for me to see my family, six months after I left them. GOD HAS GRACIOUSLY PROVIDED THE AIR TICKET FOR THIS TRIP! PRAISE GOD! PRAY FOR THE TRIP AND THE MINISTRY IN CAMEROON.

Thank you for your prayers and we hope to hear from you soon.

BCC Celebrates Mothers

by

Happy-Mothers-Day-bcc

Mothers are blessed. If you are a mother and you are reading this, may you receive a double portion of blessing.

It is such a joy to be a mother. Motherhood begins with the process of incubating a baby in the womb for about 9 months. Some children come before 9 months and others come after 9 months. In some rare cases, some come around 10 months. Such babies should be considered a miracle.

After the incubation period comes another painful and most undesirable moment for most mother. It’s called labor. For some medical or miraculous reason, some mothers do not experience labour. My wife did not experience labour during the birth of our second baby.

Labour is a period of intense pain and discomfort for every mother. In some cases, some mothers have even died in the course of labour due to unbearable pain and related causes. In the midst of intense pain comes the moment every mother dreams of: delivery. When the baby finally comes out, it brings such relief and joy to the mother. The first sound the baby makes is crying, not laughing. The cry of a baby bring such joy to its mother. probably the only time when a baby’s crying makes a mother happy. Soon after that and in the months that follow, every cry is almost undesirable for most mothers and often signifies a problem.

There are huge spiritual lessons we can learn from this experience:

  1. Once we are physically born into this world, we become a fetus in the womb of the Holy Spirit. Just as a bay lives in darkness in it mother’s womb, we live in darkness in the world.
  2. If we ever get born by the Holy Spirit, we are said to be “born-again”. When we  are born again, we enter into another world: God’s Kingdom where we become spiritual babies who need to be fed and cared for so they can grow – same in the physical world.
  3. Before we are born again by the Holy Spirit, the Spirit also goes through an intense period of ‘labour’. A battle wages for our soul in which the Holy Spirit wages war against the spirits that are competing for our lives. To be born-again means the Holy Spirit has defeated our enemies and our will.
  4. Once we are born by the Spirit, we cannot grow without being fed and cared for, the same way a physical baby is fed and cared for. Think of the tenderness with which a mother cares for her baby! Without physical food, a physical baby cannot survive; in the same way, without spiritual food, a spiritual baby cannot survive. That explains why many believers are ‘dead’ in the church today.
  5. Just before delivery, a mother experiences the most painful and stressful moment of her life. It is often said, “the darkest part of the night is just before dawn”. It is the same with spiritual life. When your breakthrough is closest, that is when you (most of the times) experience the most intense hardship or difficulty. So, are you going through a very difficult moment? Then, know that your delivery (deliverance) is around the corner! Don’t give up or quit. If you quit, because of pain, you loose everything. You get nothing.

God bless you.
