We are really excited!
Denvil Lee and I officially purchased our tickets to Kenya and Uganda yesterday and will be leaving Miami on February 24th via London and coming back on March 19th. Please read the rest of the blog entry for details.
After what appeared as a sure cancellation of the trip to Kenya this month, turned out to be a delay of God’s timing.
The very day that I wrote to a number of people to notify them that I was cancelling the Kenya Christmas tour for lack of finances, $1525.00 came in, enough for the price of an airplane ticket.
I immediately realized that God had withheld the funds as a strategical and timing scheme. I felt to reschedule the trip to February when it’s considerably cheaper to fly to east Africa.
Secondly, the trip was to be three weeks instead of the usual two, so that I could visit with a great ministry that I have worked with in Uganda. The amazing thing about this country is that there is a genuine revival with children. God is raising up a brand new generation of young worshipers in East Africa!
When I sent another letter to update our friends of the rescheduling of the East Africa event, I got an inquiry from a church friend by the name of Denvil Lee about accompanying me .
Denvil is an amazingly anointed worship leader who sings, prophesies and plays the keyboards absolutely beautifully.
The Lord immediately reminded me of one of the final words which He had given to us in Kenya in 2007 when we moved back to the United States. God had told us then to bring the ministry of worship to Kenya! East African Christians praise Jesus Christ so wonderfully and powerfully! Yet they have gotten little introduction and training to the ministry of worship, the glory of God, and learning to wait on God’s presence.
Denvil’s desire to come on this trip is a direct fulfillment of the word of the Lord given to us to expose and train the East Africa body of Christ to the ministry of worship. Our hearts lept for joy!
As always, we will also bring the teaching, healing and prophetic ministry of Jesus Christ to a land where there is revival and an amazing hunger and openness to the Lord Jesus.
This trip will also allow us to further strategize God’s vision for East Africa with wonderful Christian leaders.
Our potential itinerary for this trip looks something like this.
