Please help us..
Help needed in Kenya..
Dear Reynolds,
Greetings in Jesus name. I just wanted to drop a note
to you that we are well only that my family has been
affected yesterday, where I have been staying has also
become dangerous as people are being told to move from
here.
We are trying to move our belongings today possibly if
God will provide for us, as this people are getting
into homes steal and burn houses, then kill others.
Pray for us, we are in need, my parents were yesterday
in Naivasha and found people being killed by a group of
men, men were being ordered from vehicles, ordered to
give identity cards if you are from west Kenya you are
slaughtered, but praise God they were not touched,
road blocks had been made and so they were returned to
Nairobi with my mother with police escort. I thank God
for such protection.
I am working out way to remove the belongings from
home, move my brothers & sisters who had come to
Ol'kalou where we had thought safe (our home) to
another place possibly tomorrow, as God will provide.
As I tell you things are moving out of hand, only God
can rescue His people, we are worried.
Thank you for prayers and support.
Your son

I want to encourage you.. As the apostle Paul said when problems struck.. "that this has fallen out to the furtherance of the Gospel.." You can use 'events' to teach people! Paul did..
We are going to send them some money.. and use this instance to help you grow in the financial things of God. This ministry tithes on all that comes to it. We shall be sending them some funds to help them and we know that God will "open to us the windows of Heaven and pour us out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive it" (Malachi3) He will multiply our seed sown..(2Cor9)
"But.. you say. "How do you know that?"
a) Mainly because He said so in His Word. We are acting upon 2Cor9 ~ "Now concerning the collection for the poor saints.."
"But how do you know that God is in this particular giving?"
A good question. Basically because He hasn't stopped us! Too many times, we try to get a 'leading' to give, instead of acting upon His Word. Jesus said 'give and will be given you' He will stop you if He doesn't want you to give. When the apostle Paul went to go into Asia, he was stopped of God.. "I went to go into Asia and the Lord forbade me" Then he went to go somewhere else and "the Spirit suffered me not" Do you see where we miss it sometimes? We have sought for a leading, rather than purposing in our heart and acting upon His Word.. Paul was acting upon the Word he had received of the Lord.. and as he went, he was directed.. Faith is an act!
"But how do I really 'know' that the Lord's in it?"
Well, this is what I did this morning.. When the news came to me about Kenya, I sat and thought for a bit as to what to do. It's easy to react to a need, rather than look to the Lord to see what 'He' wants to do.. So I prayed and sought direction. I didn't 'hear' anything but as I sat there, it 'seemed good' to do it.. The Bible says that the apostles gave a decision about a matter in the Book of Acts. They said.. 'it seems good to the Holy Spirit and to us.." They had weighed up what to do and it 'seemed good' First to the Lord and also to them. There was a 'Yes' on the inside of them.. and that's what I got whilst sitting here.. When I think of it, it brings a joy to my heart. That's another leading of the Spirit. The Bible says "The Kingdom of God is... in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit"
Three things..
"Is is Right?" Yes!
"Do I have Peace about this?" Yes!
"Does it bring Joy to me when I think on it?" Yes!
Three Yes's! God's in it!!
NOW, I also know, that because of this, that what we sow will open the windows of Heaven for us and the seed will be multiplied..
"How do you 'know' that?"
Because "God is not a man that He should lie" I am simply acting upon the written Word (Logos) and then I have the spoken Word (Rhema) in the revelation. (The 'Yes') plus, He hasn't stopped me.. and I have a joy!
The motive of the heart. "I don't give to get.. but I know that when I do.. I will" How come? Because Jesus said.. "Give and it shall be given you.." Do you see what I am trying to share with you here?
God bless you, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ.
John
