I GET SOOO WORRIED about little things, and big this, and believe me, i have great faith. I understand what it means to believe in my faith. Its all i have had at some points in my life, and it has been clear, passionate, bright yellow, and alive. Jesus is alive in my eyes. But over the last couple weeks on of the people i look up to in my life, Dr. Mensa, has gone into a town of great darkness in Ghana, a place so full of eveil spirts, and idol worshipping that it was feared for a long time. But Dr. Mensa felt he and his team should go. That God wanted them to go, and that if they went God would be faithful, thats the key right, when God asks you to do something HE WANTS YOU TO DO IT. and so of course he will be with us in what he says. God will be faithful in Tanzania. God has been faithful this year at Trent. God was faithful in that village in Ghana. The whole village came out to hear the team playing worship, and then to hear Dr. Mensa speak, you know waht. I am gonna copy the story. Read it. It's real God, alive and really working in the lives of his children EVERY SINGLE DAY. God is Real my friends, God is moving, and right now as i write this i can feel Him pressing on my heart. Lets not fear guys! Lets do what God wants for each of us, lets not dream of having it our ways, and i belive that God will use us to help change this world!

"All was set, but brewing right behind us was a powerful African >thunderstorm. Lightning was flashing, thunder was rolling, and it >was rolling our way – quickly. We all prayed that the Lord would not >let it come and stop us from being able to speak for we knew that >the people would read into it that their idol had prevented us from >speaking. That was His first miracle. The town started to gather: >the chief and elders, women, men and children. The two lanterns >flooded the area with light, the drums were set. Pastor Jacob looked >at David and said, “We’re ready”, David replied “Let’s start” and >with faith and fear still wrestling in our hearts, ‘we started’.>>
The singing sounded more beautiful than ever, the dancing seemed >more exuberant and when the Baniantwe chief was called on to speak, >the crowd listened intently. He talked about the olden days when >they didn’t have mirrors. He said that they used to look into water >if they wanted to see themselves to be able to comb their hair, but >once mirrors came, nobody went back using water to see themselves. >He went on to say that in the olden times they served idols, but >someone better has come, Jesus, it is as foolish not to follow Him >as it is to look in water to comb your hair if you have a mirror!>>Ebenezer, who was once a Muslim shared what God has done in his >life. He told of how when he came to know Christ, his family shunned >him, but now he is the one they look to and depend upon.>>
David then spoke about the demon possessed man that the Lord healed >and the town’s response that Jesus should leave them (Luke 8:26-37). >He brought out that here was a man who was tortured and frightening >the whole town, yet when Jesus came along to relieve them from the >fear of the man who was terrorizing them, somehow the people >preferred the situation the way it was and the benefit they could >derive from the pigs more than this man being healed and >contributing to the community. Instead of them begging Jesus to >stay, they begged Him to go. He told them how Satan will always >shift our attention from good things and that the idols they have >served so long want them to ‘sleep in the tombs’ and to suffer.>
>He wove in part of what the Lord has done in his life and in his >family’s life mentioning that he had walked from Yaara many times >with his Uncle Asimbo carrying goats and sheep to the idol of Bewele >and yet, if Jesus had not intervened in his life, that same uncle >would have had to beg for food to eat before he died because he was >so poor. He talked about an uncle that served a particular idol so >faithfully and yet was so poor that someone took his only ‘cloth’ >from him because he couldn’t pay a debt of about a penny. He >reminded them that years ago, they had said they didn’t even want a >road to their village as the noise of cars would send the spirits of >the idols away from there, and that now, they are asking us to try >and help them get a road. This is another way that they too have >been kept in bondage. And with all the service they have given to >that idol, they have no clean water to drink. He told them it is >time for them to choose Jesus and leave that demon!>>He asked them “Are you tired of making the sacrifices of sheep and >goats?” “Do you want to stay the same?” He concluded by asking them >whether they too wanted to beg Jesus to go or wanted to ask Him to >stay?
At different times, David heard the town elders behind him chatting >back and forth to each other saying “He’s telling the truth.” “How >does he know this?” “God is revealing it to him.” He also heard the >chief, who is also the fetish priest, sighing.
At this point, he invited those who wanted to follow Christ to come >for prayer and without a second’s delay, people started to come -- >beginning with the chief’s elders. Young and old, men and women came >and before we prayed, *there were over 60 people before us* – >including the wife and son of the fetish priest/chief. It was as >though they had been waiting for the gospel to reach them! We were >amazed, thrilled, surprised and thankful God that He had allowed us >all to be part of seeing salvation come Bewele."
