This week:  

1. Praise God for the Servant and Apostles of God, Drs Ezekiel & Eunor Guti for supernatural strength everyday. Let’s thank God for renewing their strength after the Secretaries/Bookkeepers Conference. Let’s also thank God for the meeting they have with Bishops and leaders from other churches tonight Monday May 7, 2012. This weekend May 11-13, 2012 as ZAOGA FIF celebrates her 52nd anniversary, there will be a LIVE BROADCAST with Baba & Amai from Harare, Zimbabwe. Let’s thank God for this broadcast and the finances required. Praise God for granting them visas for the different nations God has lined up for them to visit this year – He is a God full of favor and He makes a way for them. May God grant them wisdom for the administrative work they are doing. They are also carrying the burden of the Hospital, University and all the FIF Academic schools amongst other things.    
2. Praise God for the preparations of the Singapore Explo. Let’s thank God for granting favor so we get permission from the authorities in that nation and provision of the funding. Thank God for more people so we can register the church there.    
3. Praise God for the Hospital (Mbuya Dorcas Health Centre). Praise God for favor with the final registration of the Hospital. Praise God for granting; success in every office we enter.  
4. Praise God for ZEGU. Students will be starting school at AMFCC this month with plans to move to the ZEGU site in September. Let’s thank God for no setbacks. Praise God for enabling the builders to complete all the buildings on time so we meet all the requirements from the government.  
5. Praise God for all the FIF missionaries worldwide – those who’ve been there for a while and those that were posted this year. May the God of Ezekiel make Himself known to the people in those nations. Praise God for enabling them to penetrate and have breakthroughs among the indigenous people in those nations as they fulfill the vision.

TEACHING:  It is appropriate that we focus on the anniversary out church this month. In the Joshua 4:5-7, God commanded Joshua to instruct the children of Israel as they crossed the Jordan river to pick up a stone for each of the 12 tribes which would be a reminder to the generations to come that God had parted the Jordan and let the children of Israel walk on dry ground. During the Jubilee celebrations Baba reminded us that we need to understand how this church began so we can move on in the next 50 years. Let’s ask for the old paths as Jeremiah 6:16 says “Thus says the Lord: Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, we will not walk in it.” .The message remains the same as methods change with time. God gave the message “Sin Not, Fear Not”. It is important to know the history of your church and the life of the Founder. 2 Tim 3:10 “But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, long suffering, love, perseverance,”. God bless you.
