A
WORD FOR AFRICA
From
Elizabeth Kamau - 11th May 2000
While in Mityana [on the SOMA Team] I spoke on Reconciliation and taught on spiritual warfare among the many things that I did. One day as we welcomed the Holy Spirit, I had a vision - I saw Satan dressed like a prince standing with legs apart holding a mace. His pose suggested that he owns the land and no other has authority. I called the Ugandans (Bagandas) to repent of the sins which have given him a legal right - Idolatry, bloodshed, immorality and slavery - then we did spiritual warfare and enthroned Jesus. At the end of this prayer I saw the ground open and there was a big dark pit - like he went back to the pit.
As I prayed over this vision later, I felt compelled to write to you, share a bit of what the Lord is saying to the African continent, and ask you the SOMA ministries, to be considering the directions for Africa as you send Teams to Africa. I received my invitation to the November consultation and I was very please to find out that Emeka Nwankpa was one of the key guests. Let me share some of the things God said concerning Africa as we met in Johannesburg for the Africa House of prayer conference. The theme was Isaiah 60:1-5.
>Arise
Africa and shine - God is calling Africa to arise from our
positions namely:
sitting, fallen state, slumbering, woundedness.
> Arise
Africa and deal with the foundations: God spoke to Emeka
[Nwankpa] in 1997
and told him that the foundations of Africa were not founded on
Biblical principles.
Our foundation is very idolatrous. This has to go. This idolatry
is in two levels. -
-
Idolatry of our forefathers -who gave a legal right to Satan
-
Freemasonry, which is in every country of Africa.
> In ten years time God will give Africa a new face. The first three years will be difficult but then things will go on well.
> But
for God to do this new thing in Africa which will have no name,
he needs:
-
Couriers to carry his presence throughout the continent
-
Carriers to carry his counsel in every nation
- Burden
bearers to bear the burden of his heart for Africa
> He
will need:
- Men to
tie the donkey by the roadside or by the gate
-
Disciples to untie the donkey
- Men to
ride on the donkey
> God wants to establish the rule of Christ as in Psalm 72.
> Finally God wants frontiers to do this work.
> On the first day of the conference God spoke and said that he had taken us there to deal with foundations of South Africa which he wants to shake. So one full day was given to prophetic actions around Johannesburg and the neighbouring towns.
>These
last four years God is calling us to deal with
-
Idolatry of our forefathers
-
Bloodshed in Africa
-
Immorality
-
Slavery T
These four sins defile the land.
> The
way to do this is by bringing reconciliation to:
- People
of God
- Men to
men
-
Families
- Ethnic
groups or tribes (most African people don't have the word tribe
in their language - the word is nation (ethnic group))
- Racial
reconciliation
- The
body of Christ
- Israel
(Semitic reconciliation)
>
Repentance in two levels:
-
Individual repentance
-Identificational
repentance
>
Spiritual warfare whereby:
- We
reject or renounce all covenants that tie Africa with
idolatry/slavery/immorality or bloodshed.
-
Breaking all satanic altars and raising altars unto the Lord
Casting out spirits (dealing with territorial spirits)
-
Blessing the land after enthroning the Lord Jesus Christ as the
Lord.
>God
wants to raise a new priesthood for Africa - teaching priests to
raise a new standard for the Lord.
> God doesn't want Africa to go the way of
antichrist or IMF or World Bank - God wants to fulfil Isaiah
19:19-25 for Africa.
[Many of you will remember Elizabeth from the 1995 conference at Dolfor. The Welsh S.O.M.A. team had met her on their first trip to Uganda. She also visited Wales in 1998 . Once again she is part of the team that Brian Waters is leading to Kenya, and this time she is in home territory. Brian has sent us their itinerary to help us in prayer.]
