Happy Church

Happy Church

We were ask to speak at a little church in the area here in Narok called Majengo. We have sense found out that all towns in Kenya have a Majengo and that means the poor side of town. We use to go to the market up there and buy our vegetables and fruits, but stopped because the roads are so bad and it is hard to get to. So to say the least we haven’t been there in a long time and had forgotten how poor there area really is. Garbage in the street (more than the usual for Narok) starving dogs, cattle eating out of garbage heaps over crowded living conditions, kids running around barefoot in the mess.. I think you may get the picture. Cars are rare in Majengo so we had to pay somebody to watch our car while we ere there.

We were happy to be invited and felt the Lord wanted us to do generational repentance prayers with the people. They have 2 services Dollie was to do the first me the second one. She did hers on breaking witchcraft curses and blood covenants because this is so prevalent here.

When we first got there we were shocked at how poor the people appeared to be and how poorly the children were dressed. Some of the children look very malnourished. They were a happy bunch though!

So while Dollie was speaking I keep thinking we have to break the spiritual curse of poverty off these people! Dollie and I talked and agreed so when I spoke that is what I did. It was a very long repents prayer and with it being said in 2 languages and repeated once it seemed very long. The people seemed like they were really leaning in to what they were praying and Sarah said she could feel a lot of relief her self durning the prayers. After that I spoke on maintaining you deliverance and leading a righteous life. A lot of people here in Kenya are saved, but don’t have any fruit and lead very corrupt lives. One of the things on our heart is to help get the Church cleaned up. Being saved is good, but if you have no victory in your walk and can’t overcome strongholds in your life it is not what God intended. Pastors here seem more evil and less trustworthy than a unsaved person.

I just called the pastor to see what fruit if any came from our visits. He was very positive and wants us to come and do a 3 day conference. He said that a lot of people have seen great changes in there lives. PRAISE BE TO GOD! So we are to sit down with him the beginning of April and talk about what and when to speak again.

It is strange that they are so versed in witchcraft and know how to use it and very successfully, I will say, but have know idea how to break it off there lives. Dollie and I were working with a lady that had all kinds of curses on her from witches in her family, but she had know idea what to do about it. We had a great time in the Lord working with her and she was very surprised at how easy and how much relief she found from the simple prayers we did in 2 hours. She needs a lot more work but at least we got her some relief and it was a start.

We pray that Happy Church can grow and prosper in the Lord.

Keep us in your prayers as we go about doing what we see the Father doing!

Penny and Dollie
