The African Church Must Change Its Course
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
While some missions in the USA and Europe are still sponsoring missionaries in Africa, we have African preachers with more than 10 to 50 exotic cars worth more than $100.000.00 each in their garages.
How many cars does a preacher ride on at once?
When we preach about hastening the return of the Lord while living like that, how do we expect the people to believe us?
Somewhere in Africa, the race among preachers is on becoming a member of the club of private Jet owners in a continent where millions of our people are fleeing to Europe and the USA, with so many dying in the Mediterranean sea and the forest of South American countries as they strive to get to Europe and the USA respectively.
If Christ told the rich young ruler then to sell what he had and give to the poor, today He is saying to our modern Laodicean church leaders to sell these vanities and invest in the gospel aggressively and give back to society by opening factories and others to employ the unemployed amass as a bridge-building strategy to win souls, knowing fully well that we don't have all the time at our side.
The people are cursing us for withholding corn.

✝ Proverbs 11:26
"He that withholds corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that sells it."

Listen, and hear me. The change we are yearning for in the body of Christ is not with the Outgoing generation but with you, the emerging ones.
Don't expect those of the Outgoing generation to share this perspective.
Most of them are done with their race and are preparing to exit.
The emerging generation must respect them but not make the mistake of considering the parameters their generation highlighted as success in life and ministry to become yours.
E.g., Their obsession with ordinations for the titles of Bishop, Arch-Bishops, Most senior Apostle, Major, etc., and achievements of building the Largest Cathedral, enjoying an expensive lifestyle, owning fleets of cars, private Jets, huge foreign bank accounts, and sophisticated security details etc., etc.
We bless God for them and what He used them to accomplish, but as a generation operating in the last seconds of the last days, our perspective of life and ministry must be fine-tuned by the word and Spirit of God.
I hope to teach this briefly in an audio message and share it with you.
Let's make Christ; the author and finisher of our faith, our pattern for ministerial life.
Don't kill yourself trying to fit in; stand out. There is a paradigm shift.
If you hang around a little longer on earth, you will see the shift in reality.
What has been esteemed and celebrated and some idolised within the Pentecostal movement will soon fade for an era of genuine spiritual awakening.
People will soon cast away their idols of (faith bracelets, water, bangles, soap, salt, coconut, perfume, frame photos and other merchandise) from their soothsayers masquerading as Prophets to seek God in truth.
Those who were patient with the truth and didn't fall for the hype will be more on-demand than they can respond.
God will judge the sorcerers that took over several quarters of the Pentecostal movement, and the people they fooled will curse their memory.
Heaven is getting ready, but the question is, are we ready?
May the Lord fine-tune your spirit.
Stop seeking the living among the dead.
May the Lord grant you understanding. 🔥🔥
Stay blessed
