Appleseed Travel Journal - Words Given

Brooks
map of East Africa(May 1) As I write, sitting on our bed, mosquito net hanging down, I listen to the bleating of a goat no doubt missing it's mom and a thousand crickets chirping the night away. Massive Lake Kivu sits proudly a short distance away dividing Rwanda from DR Congo. Feeling small and insignificant in a continent of turmoil and distrust interspersed with periods of stability, I am once again reminded of the greatness of our God. As David declared, "I look at the heavens and know that you are there … and who could deny it?"
Friends before leaving told us things they felt the spirit of God saying. Using words like structure and breakthrough and tree top vision…
"You will see deeply imbedded foundations of evil (strongholds) breaking up and opening the way for deeper more enduring levels of ministry. It will occur in the lives of leaders (behaviors/mind sets etc.) and in area structures (leaders/power bases etc.) that have hindered in previous ministry efforts."
(May 13) After only two weeks in Africa, I can confidently say, these words are becoming reality. We are blessed, encouraged, and strengthened as we continue to work … now in Burundi.
