Dear Friends,

SOUTH AFRICA ZONE 1 17TH DEEPER-LIFE CONFERENCE

From March 26th to 29th, more than 1,500 leaders from Zone 1, South Africa, gathered for the 17th Deeper Life Conference, followed by a powerful Zonal Big Sunday on March 30th. All this took place at the brand-new Ezekiel Guti Convention Centre, a world-class facility. The Conference also marked the official dedication of the venue to the Lord by our beloved Mom, Senior Archbishop Professor Eunor Guti, during the Big Sunday service.
The conference featured a dynamic lineup of anointed speakers, including our father, the Presiding Bishop Dr. Joseph Joe Guti, our Mother Pastor Nyasha Guti, Archbishop Simao from Mozambique, the Secretary-General Apostle M. Nyambo, and Senior Pastors Paul and Fiona Arthur, all the way from the USA. Their messages brought deep revelation, encouragement to continually fear the Lord and a fresh outpouring of God’s power.
From day one, the atmosphere was electric with the presence of God. The Holy Spirit moved mightily as many were baptized with fire, lives were transformed, and miracles broke out daily. There were powerful moments of healing and deliverance as people were set free from different ailments and spiritual oppression. A fresh wave of revival and the fear of the Lord swept through the leadership and delegates alike.
In a remarkable display of honor and hunger, political dignitaries traveled over 1,000 kilometers just to witness what the God of Ezekiel is doing. Their presence testified to the growing recognition of the spiritual impact ZAOGA FIFMI is having across South Africa and beyond.
Despite the rain on Sunday, over 5,000 people packed the Convention Centre to worship and receive from the Lord. The Presiding Bishop delivered a life-changing Word that touched hearts deeply, resulting in 42 individuals giving their lives to Jesus Christ. It was a powerful moment of salvation and celebration, as heaven rejoiced over each soul. Indeed, South Africa was set ablaze afresh for the Kingdom of God.

We want to thank the God of our father for a successful prayer retreat that took place from the 4th to the 6th of April at Corrymeela Ballycastle in Northern Ireland. It was spearheaded by our overseer Christine Kurumidzai Sabvute and the provincial Go Quickly board with Overseer Cecilia Zezani as our guest speaker. Some ladies travelled journeys that took them over 6 hours by bus to be in attendance. We had an attendance of 34 on Friday and 38 on Saturday.
The speakers were mightily used of God as they taught. Ladies had more time for self-reflection, and many poured out their hearts in tears, unforgiveness, resentment, low self-esteem, and anger. We witnessed great Love amongst ourselves as we cried in prayer together as each one of us was pouring out. Ladies were soaked in the spirit of laughter and singing in tongues, some received new tongues after the teachings.
They were stirred up to work the Multi-project Talents with understanding after the teaching. Many testimonies were shared on how the retreat transformed their lives. Those married could not wait to go back to their homes to make things right with their husbands and children. After fellowship through the breaking of bread some ladies left with others remaining for one-on-one pouring.
Surely, we thank the God of Ezekiel for a new beginning in our lives.

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

Do your work as unto the Lord. Expect God to reward you, not man. Look at me there is no work I did not do, starting from sweeping. Whatever I need God gives me whenever I need it. I did my work as unto the Lord in another company, no one respected me or even seemed to recognize all my hard work. I then realized that God was watching me and recording all my good deeds. There came a time when people started to say um this is not only prayer but he uses magic because of the many promotions that I got. They did not know that God Himself caused the promotions. I realized God will never forget all the good we do for Him….God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you.
