HEAVEN IS HERE MZUZU CONFERENCE
The excitement was
all over the stadium, the story was everywhere in the city and the mission was
accomplished in grand style. Fountain of Victory International Ministries under
the stewardship of Pastor Joseph Ziba invaded the northern region, Mzuzu to be
specific on Saturday, 28th September, 2013 and the ministry left an
indelible mark through its Heaven Is Here Conference at Mzuzu Stadium.
Crowd receiving Jesus as Personal Lord as
Personal Lord and Saviour
The conference was
held only one day; multitudes came to the conference expectant on that God is
going to change their situations and times. There were just two services that
took place; the morning service which was the Healing and Miracles Service
specially dedicated for God to manifest his goodness over the lives of people
in healings, deliverances and elevating peoples’ lives.
The Man of God
ministered about the people who came to Jesus (Matthew 4:23-24)that they were
people who were sick and with torments that is to say with the pains of life
but the bible says that Jesus healed them all, the word all means everything
excluding nothing telling us that Jesus is able to heal everything. The Man of
God also talked of the pool of Bethesda (John 5) he pointed out some points
that when the angel came and troubled the water the bible says on verse 4 that “whosoever then first after troubling of the
water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease” in other word it
says the first person who entered in the pool just after the troubling of the
water by the angel was made whole of any disease he had. The question being why
healing the first one only? It tells us that healing is for those who are
desperate and hungry for it not for people who come just to see. The other
thing he pointed out is that the pool is called Bethesda in Hebrew which means
the house of Kindness showing us that it was the place of the manifestation of
the kindness and goodness of God. The Man of God said that they went to Mzuzu
to manifest and for the people in Mzuzu and northern region to experience the
goodness and kindness of God. Then the Man of God offered a general prayer in
front and just after the prayer was offered multitudes that were sick, walking
on wheel chairs, walking using crutches stood up and went to front to give
their testimonies of what the Lord has done to them, people were being
delivered in the group just by that prayer, you could see people literally
vomiting stuff, people with stroke for some years walked for the first time, a
man with leprosy who could not feel if something touches his feet was cleansed
and for the first time he felt the hotness of sun with his feet, cancer was
flashed out, deaf ears were opened. The Lord really manifested his kindness and
goodness in Mzuzu Stadium. Multitudes were fighting not to be prayed for but to
give their testimonies, there was a young girl who developed piles and when she
went to the hospital they operated her and after the operation it went worse to
the extent that she was just defecating and urinating without control, she can
be somewhere seated the next thing she finds that she is wet or she has
defecated without her noticing how it happened and she couldn’t associate with
people because she was smelling always but you don’t go to the house of the kindness
and goodness of the Lord and go back the same, when the prayer was offered she
found out that all the pain is gone and the Lord took her shame away and gave
her a new name, when she was testifying people were just crying seeing the painful
and shameful moment the sister has passed through even her friends came in
front crying testifying the moments she has been in. there were lots of
testimonies to give talking of people who were delivered for satanism, goiters
and tumors disappearing. The man of God closed the meeting upon seeing that the
time was gone and there was a need to have the second and last service.
The second service
started after the lunch break, there was such a readiness in people because of
what happened in the morning and also that the Man of God promised in the
morning that he will teach about the Freedom that we have as sons of God. when
he stood in front he stressed the point that the biggest mistake you can make
is to give up on God, he said that there are some who were in the morning
service and they feel that nothing has happened to them and they have given up
and concluding that God cannot heal them, he said that Jesus prayed for the
blind person and he asked him what he sees and the man said that he is saying
people as trees and Jesus prayed again over the person, had it been that the
man gave up the first time he wouldn’t have received his miracle.
The Man of God read
on Galatians 1:4 where it says that Jesus came to deliver us from the present
evil world and he also read on Revelations 1:18 where Jesus told John that he
is alive and he holds the keys of hell and death which tells us that Jesus is
still alive he is not dead, and he is not just alive but he also went to hell
and took the keys of the hell from the devil showing us how powerless the devil
is that is why in Galatians 1:4 it says that he came to deliver us from the
present evil world that is to give us the freedom. The Man of God then gave an
opportunity to those who haven’t received Jesus as their personal Lord and
saviour to receive him and multitudes almost everybody came in front and the
Man of God lead the people to Christ and he then called for anyone who had any sickness
who wanted to be prayed for and seeing the multitude that came in front was
just many. The Man of God prayed for all of them and he closed the service with
praying for the people because they were just too much.
Everybody went back
home with full of joy and a song of celebration and victory was on the mouth of
everyone. People who had tumors and goiters witnessed their tumors disappearing,
those who came on wheel chair went walking, and those who came bound went
delivered. In simple words we can say that Pastor Joseph Ziba and Fountain of
Victory International Ministry went to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord
to the Northern region.
To God be the Glory
for what he did in Mzuzu and the whole Northern Region!!
