“ Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. “ (2 Corinthians 2:14). This verse has been an encouragement to us for the past few weeks because God has really been faithful in bringing this Scripture to pass in our lives.
We have faced a lot of difficulties since July. Since then we have not been able to meet at the Technical School for church services or Bible College due to student riots at the school. For the past two months we have been meeting in my house and sometimes in my living room when it is raining outside. The thing that blesses me so much is to see the members of the church still coming out and having a great time even though we don’t have our usual place of worship. The Life in the Body of Christ has been intense and the Word of God is coming out with power and anointing. The enemy can take our place of worship but he cannot take the Word from us. We are determined to finish the semester whether we have a place or not.
After postponing Bible College for a week because of our building problem, we have now started classes and have about 18 students coming out to learn the Word of God. Somehow we manage to pack ourselves in my living room and do Applied Bible Doctrine and Discipleship of Grace video classes, and on my front porch for the live classes. The enemy cannot stop us. Keep us in prayer. We are praying for God to give us a permanent place of worship and have been discussing the possibility of a parcel of land with the local chief.
Two weeks ago on our way from church, my family and I were involved in a serious car accident. My whole family was in the car. The car was badly damaged by a reckless “trotro,” minivan driver but, thanks be to God we all escaped unharmed. The car is at the shop and probably will stay there for a while because we don’t have the funds (about $250) to fix it. We sensed “ the angel of the LORD truly encamps round about them that fear him, and delivers them “ (Psalms 34:7). This is what He did for us and we thank God that once again He was faithful to deliver us.
In the midst of all this we are more than conquerors (Rom. 8:37) and we plan to continue in this victory we have in Christ. Thank you all for your prayers and love and support.
God Bless, Pastor Henry Nkrumah
