Dear Friends  

Happy 94th birthday to “the world’s greatest father” Apostle Prof E. H. Guti. We join ZAOGA FIFMI members who have been sending birthday messages to our father from all over the world on all the technological platforms. He is truly a bona fide man of God who has been tried and tested over the years.  A man who met God before he met a preacher and has been preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ non stop for 69 years. We are wishing Baba many more years to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, the world over in every nation.
 
This is the week we are all getting ready to celebrate our 57th church anniversary. Please send us testimonies of the great things God is going to do.

 
 
Let’s hear the results of prayers around the world:
St Kitts
We thank the God of Ezekiel for another fruitful week on the Island. The praise and worship team is continuing to grow as they put in more practice and prayer. They also received T-shirts with this year’s theme as uniforms this week and they were looking great and colorful this Sunday. Wednesday had a total of 10 locals for bible study . Some who were going to work in the evening went to the pastor’s house during the day to receive their teaching as they did not want to miss anything. Friday had 9 and Sunday had 27. The teaching on the Holy Spirit was rounded off with practicals on Sunday and 4 were baptized in the Holy Spirit. This coming week we are introducing cell groups and we have 3 venues to start. Please pray for these to go well. Again, we thank you for your prayers.
Nevis
Praise the Lord for yet another successful week in Nevis. Deeper Life Leadership Conference representatives from Nevis (Sister Tessa & Bro Desmond) arrived with great treasure from the feet of the Apostles of God. They are sharing with the church their experiences and lessons for implementation:

  • Concept of Home Bible Studies is great
  • Praise and Worship anointing and choreography 
  • Humility of Baba and Amai and all FIFMI children is matchless
  • Lifestyle of Zimbabwean FIFMI members is God’s Kingdom life
  • FIFMI is God’s nation in another country
  • Church members give God the best, they support the vision
  • Talents concept is the believers’ program for enrichment
  • All of Baba’s books and teachings have scripture references
  • Baba Guti has Nevis and Islands at heart, wants the best and His God is taking us to higher levels.
  • They were surprised by Bindura, ZEGU, MDH (Mbuya Dorcas hospital), primary and secondary schools, Bible college, HQ, Cottage 593, CCCI hosting and much more.

They cherish all the gifts they were given by Baba and Amai. The church is excited to celebrate the 57th Anniversary for the first time this week. Pastors Chris and Sesie participated in the national day of prayer on radio. The numbers are increasing steadfastly. Keep us in prayer for work permits and the church bus.

Barbados
We say happy birthday to our Father, an outstanding Apostle of our time, the Archbishop E.H. Guti on His 94th birthday, we see the grace, the goodness and wisdom of God in your Leadership.
In Barbados we are walking in his Kingdom. We had an opportunity to welcome back our Deacon Beatrice from Zimbabwe where she attended two Deeper life Conferences for Elders and Deacons. She gave a wonderful and powerful feedback and will still be continuing right up to the anniversary. 
16 people attended our Wednesday and Friday meetings while Sunday had 39 people, 33 adults and 6 children. We had a wonderful week of training potential leaders from Wednesday until Sunday during the evening and had time to go around witnessing and home visitations in the day. 
Testimonials

  • One believer was praying for business growth, to have money to buy two pairs of shoes to use for church instead God send someone with 12 pairs of shoes. To God be the glory who provides for his children.
  • One believer was healed in her body during a worship song. God told her to kneel down and the word was confirmed through the Pastor who went and told her God has just told me he healed you now and it indeed was an awesome experience for her.  A cool breeze swept through her body and then a warmth that removed every pain that was in her body.

This Sunday God moved in mighty way such that it was difficult to close the service. People did not actually leave until after 2pm.
Pray for continuous growth and musicians who can play various instruments.

Madagascar
We thank the God of our father who is taking us through this mission on the Island of Madagascar in Fort Dauphin. We started the week in a mood of prayer then we did door to door home visitation praying and encouraging believers and those who were no longer coming to church. We also saw the hand of God as demons would manifest before we laid hands.  The impact of home visitation was seen by a high turn out to church including some who had backslidden. We had 60 adults and 39 children attending the service amongst the number were 7 new people, 2 had received Jesus during the home visitation.  An elderly lady who prayed for wisdom to repair her sewing machine was able to repair it herself, glory to God.
A man who had backslidden received a miracle – he was having marriage issues and was suspended from work for 20 days. He came to church and the following day he was called back to work before the suspension was over. Glory to God.
God is great, we also prayed for our church bills electricity and water after hearing the teaching of father that what you have is enough. We saw ourselves paying less for the same units of electricity and water was seven times less than the previous month. We thank the God of our father Ezekiel Guti. Amen

Miami
Miami for Jesus! We thank God for His grace. Our Wednesday and Friday bible study had 6 and 8 people in attendance. The Sunday service at the retirement home was attended by 6 people, while the mission house service had 21 people. We thank the God of our Father for His grace. We are believing God for a church building. We thank you all for the heartfelt prayers.  

 
Malaysia 
We praise the God of Ezekiel for the mighty things happening in this nation. This Friday our attendance for prayer was 17 adults and 1 child, during the prayer session we experienced the mighty move of the Holy Spirit.
On Sunday our attendance was 35 adults, one child, and one visitor. The Anniversary fire is already burning here, during Bible Study we dedicated the time to the reading of the ZAOGA FIF History Book. Pastor Sarah then taught on Talents, encouraging the church to work talents and to combine their educational training with the teaching God gave to our father Baba Guti for people to use their hands. We thank God for the hearts that have been stirred up to work.
Testimonies – One believer didn’t have money for parking and found money miraculously in the parking slot. He was also believing for employment and God gave him the job with a salary more than he had requested.
We continue to ask for prayers as we are believing God for a church van.

          TEACHING:    PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

Jn 3:3-6 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 
Eph 5:26  that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word 
1 Peter 1:23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever. New birth comes from the Word heard and the Holy Spirit coming together. My spirit is the one who must be born again by the meeting of the Word of God and my spirit. My body is a result of my father and mother meeting. The born again man is now called born of God. He has his own ears and eyes. These are spiritual – those that see angels and hear God’s voice. There’s a way to hear so we can have. It is in the hearing as the Word of God is being taught to us and we hear with spiritual ears. Jn 6:63. It’s not my flesh that hears the word of God. The Spirit hears the word and works my flesh. God bless you.

 
 
We love you and are praying for you,
Drs Steve & La-Verne Simukai
