I’m blessed to be connected to and learning from a few
dreamer-visionary-idealists; who possess and express an urgent disposition to
Kingdom truths and insist there must be a “reality” that lies beneath
the confused, painful surface of things. I’m following these guys as we
frantically pursue an unnamed “something” out there, “something”
hanging where only God’s gracious thrust and glorious leadership can lift us to
apprehend.
I’m learning to dream, to dare and to change. It gets very
scary sometimes but as I doubt my fears with faith, I see opportunities, I see
possibilities, I see hope for the peoples of Sudan, a nation that ha
s known
much pain and darkness for too long.
God-sent revivals and reformations could be triggered by the
weirdest things imaginable and from the strangest of places. But they never happen by
accident. His will, always connects with the earnest passion of a few that
resist status quo by engaging in culture defying quests targeted at honoring
Jesus Christ.
There comes a time in a people’s history and a time in the
church, when spiritual miasma and religious deception must be removed by a
clear, passionate pursuit of truth. How significant it will be if this
generation of young Sudanese in the secondary and primary schools birth that
revival that takes Sudan from a receiver nation to a giver nation,
in everything? That’s our destination. Isn’t it true that the giver is always on top?
The theme of our Students’ Camp scheduled for 23rd
– 29th May 2010 is Come Up Here. I see 200 students, like
living seeds in the hand of the Gardener, like arrows in the hand of The
Greatest Warrior; they’ll assemble, yearning and hoping for an awesome time, a
time to ascend and engage.
There’s a place up-there for them and for us all; a next
level in God’s dreams and desires, that only a change in attitude can
actualize. The path up, to His side, which always begins with a falling into
the ground and a dying, must be embraced willingly.
This profound illustration in John 12:24 by the Master, who
Himself underwent the cruel process of falling into the ground and dying, in
order to bring many into life with Him highlights the need for translocation
which brings about a transformation.
Falling unto the ground happens to all men by divine
design (we get born into this evil world). But falling into the ground
and dying happens by choice. Yet, some have fallen into the ground but are yet
to die. The dying could take awhile depending on various factors. But when it
happens, a harvest is almost guaranteed.
I recently dug up a seed I planted 4weeks back, wondering
why it had not germinated; only to discover the outer shell was yet to breakup.
Though it’s been beneath the earth for weeks, until that outer-shell cracks
open, signifying the death of the seed and the release of the life within, there’ll be no growth, no plant, no
fruit and no harvest.
We are praying that these young minds gathering in a few
days from now will take the step and make that sacrifice that will crack the
outer shell and thus be launched into their glorious destinies in Jesus.
You can support us here, you can pray with us.
