Dear Friends, 

 

God is good, there’s a lot of excitement in the churches as the Pastors are giving Deeper life feedback. Pastors themselves are still talking about the change that took place in their personal lives at the conference. Glory to God.  

 

Zimre Park District had the privilege of having Baba& Amai at their church this past Sunday. There was great joy and the word went forth with power, signs and wonders following. Baba encouraged people to discipline their lives so their behavior shows they are Christians even outside of the church services too. Amai continues to share about a clean heart – now that’s something we all need to work on so we can be better people and be able to love unconditionally. 40 people gave their lives to Jesus and many who were sick received their healing and deliverance. Praise the Lord!

 

A word from our new born churches:

We thank the God of Ezekiel for another great and exciting week here in Stockholm, Sweden! We saw the mighty hand of God when a woman from an Eastern religion received Jesus Christ as her personal savior and was delivered from the spirit of suicide and asked for her mother to be prayed for.

There was a powerful bible study conducted on Friday and a great fellowship afterwards. We thank the Lord for the love in the Stockholm church as they are being united through the word of God and fellowship. Sunday service was powerful with the bible study and the word then followed by a mighty move of the Spirit with deliverance taking place. Praise the Lord! Sweden for Jesus! Attendance was 15 adults and 3 children.  

 

We continue to see the grace of God in Belize, Sunday we had 35 people in the morning service despite some of our members being at work; In the evening we had 52 people in attendance and 5 people were saved. We thank God for the kind of people who are coming to join our church. Water baptism will be done weekly as people are coming to God everyday. Hallelujah!

 

In Nebraska, this Sunday we had an attendance of 17 adults and 12 Children. We are going to baptize 3 people on Monday evening. We preached on ZAOGA church history and the presence of God was full in the house. The people are full of joy and encouraging each other to keep determined in the faith even as the short-term missionaries return.
Give praise to God!
 

This week:     

 

    1. Pray for the Servant and Apostles of God, Drs Ezekiel & Eunor Guti that God will give them divine strength for the work. This week they continue to meet with different boards of the different departments in our church. Meetings are being held day and night. Only God can give them the wisdom, revelation and physical strength for the meetings. Pray for the attendees to catch the vision and run with it. Let’s praise God in advance for giving them visas for the nations God is sending them to in 2014.  
    2. Registration: Pray for the expediting of the registration of the churches in Argentina and Singapore. Pray for God’s favor in each office.
    3. Sweden church: Pray that many other believers will be permitted to take time off from work to attend services and those who need visas will be granted. We still need a mission house in Sweden. Pray for a great harvest of souls and those that are receiving Jesus to start attending church. Pray for growth and good service times in Omaha, Nebraska.  
    4. ZEGU:  Pray that ongoing works are completed on time for the next semester. Pray for the construction of temporary residence for the students to begin soon.
    5. Mbuya Dorcas Hospital and Health Centre: Pray for safe passage of all the equipment for the wards.  

TEACHING:    PART OF ZIMRE MESSAGE:

 

1 Corinthians 9v24-27; “Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air. But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified. ” 
The people who run in the world go through fire and hard training but the bible compares Christians and racing. We need discipline. The people who run in the world go through intense training to win such as soldiers  some of them die during training

Why does the bible compare discipline with training? Believers should be disciplined and have a sweet spirit.
  1. Discipline in devotion – does God show you things in your spirit? Have a sensitive spirit to know when things go wrong. 
  2. Discipline the way you pray  
  3. Discipline what we think  
  4. Discipline what we say and our behavior. Saying words can make people bad 
  5. Discipline in morals
  6. Discipline in self control
  7. Discipline the way you eat. 

Gal 5:21-22. Be willing to change spiritual. We need to take care of ourselves to win. 

 Heb 12:1-2: “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

All winners lay aside things that pull them down.  Heathens must see the difference in us as believers.  They should know we are believers. In this church we believe in true repentance. 

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