TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI'S MESSAGE

This is a repeat:

Connect with people who fear God. Exercise Self-control. As a leader, people are watching you. You produce your own kind. The way you walk or talk is what you will produce. Your life not what you preach is what you produce. People watch your life, how you pray, and how you do things and they become like you.

Learn to control your body and be busy all the time so you don’t have idle time. Then you can enjoy the blessings of God, the sweetness of God in your spirit...God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you,

Apostle Drs Steve & La-Verne Simukai
