“The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy. I come to give you life and give it more abundantly!” (JOHN 10:10)
"We pray that Holy Spirit captures your heart as you read these prophecies and that you are inspired to respond to our "Call to Action"
“The LION was massive! His mane was dense and full. His sculptured muscular body was covered with a skin that shone as if coated with a sheen of oil. His tawny eyes were blazing with golden anger. His whole demeanour was one of absolute authority as he stood facing North on Table Mountain at the tip of Africa. Under his broad right paw was a large rolled up scroll. The lion opened his mouth, took a deep breath and roared. First to the west, then to the east then to the south and then from the depths of his being he roared to the North. As he roars the scroll starts to unfold down the face of Table Mountain.
Gradually the gigantic roar chokes down into a deep cough of satisfaction. All living beings in sub-Saharan Africa were frozen to attention. As the last fold of the scroll opened it covered the Rhodes Memorial and the wording on the scroll came into stark and bold visibility to all in Africa. The words read:
“THE BATTLE FOR THE TRUE LIBERATION OF AFRICA HAS NOW BEGUN!”
In the heavens, as if suspended on a cloud, a golden two wheeled chariot waited. The chariot was drawn by a white war horse fretting and champing at his bit, ready and eager to go. The occupant of the chariot, a magnificently proportioned majestic warrior dressed in a white linen robe with a purple waist band. On his head is a burnished bronze helmet and in his right hand held aloft is a flaming sword. As the last of the scroll covered the Rhodes Memorial, he released the reins. The white horse leapt forward, and the chariot and occupant hurtled towards the earth directly to the southern-most tip of Africa where it instantly reversed direction and then leaped forward as if struck by lightning. The chariot then crisscrossed sub -Saharan Africa at breakneck speed with the occupant leaning out of the chariot frequently touching the earth with the tip of his flaming sword. Each place that he touched a small fire broke out. Small but bright, until the whole of Southern Africa looked like it was on fire. Not with a consuming fire but a life-giving fire of true freedom.
Suddenly the chariot stopped dead. The warrior held his sword vertical and shouted the words “All Power and Glory and Majesty belong to The King of Kings and Lord of Lords, KING JESUS!” With that he turned his charger towards the heavens and with a mighty crash of thunder he disappeared. Gradually the fires on the ground started to die down as if being absorbed into the earth and an unnatural light and a silence of awe fell like a blanket over all of Africa. For a season all was frozen in time. Rivers stopped flowing. Trees stopped growing. Birds and animals alike froze motionless. Suddenly natural light returned.
A bird in its nest chirped as if testing to see if in fact a new dawn had come, a waterfall started to rush, and natural life started to reappear everywhere. Suddenly there were lions all over Africa. Some large, some small, some thin and battle scarred. All appeared as if waking from a deep sleep, woken by the roar of the Lion on Table Mountain. Some were coming out of caves, some out of crevices in the mountains, some out of the bushes and some from under river overhangs.
Many were wary of the others, and some were totally hostile towards their fellow lions. But all were walking proud. And a voice said, “It is time to deliver, heal, restore and rebuild my Body in Africa. Go and motivate, inspire and equip MY lions of Africa to take dominion over their God given territory!”
COMMENT: It does not require that one be a rocket scientist, a PhD in theology or a Bible College graduate to interpret the above prophetic word.
Since the time of Nimrod the people of Africa have been trying to work out a way of releasing the potential of the African Continent and of exploiting the resources of Africa to their own
benefit.
In the process our ancestors have sold their heritage to the Arabs, the Europeans (both east & west) and in recent times to the Americans, the Chinese, the Russians and the Indians! We have failed miserably in mobilising prosperity for the majority of Africa’ people and yet Africa is the ONLY CONTINENT that is truly independent of all other continents. If we stopped importing and exporting and learned to collaborate with one another, we would all prosper!
“The enormous resources in Africa make it one of the wealthiest regions in the world... In most parts of the continent, it is possible to engage in farming all year round. Africa could easily be a paradise on earth” Dela Adadevoh
“Instead of being exploited for the benefit of the people, Africa’s mineral resources have been so mismanaged and plundered that they are now the source of our misery.” United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan at OAU Summit in 2005.
Clearly political liberation accompanied by the process of ‘Africanisation’ has not promoted economic prosperity with 60% of our people still categorised as poverty stricken, 34% considered ‘middle class’ and only 6% considered wealthy (Professor Mthuli Ncube quoted in ‘Forbes Africa, October 2012)
SO WHAT BONDAGE REMAINS? WHAT DO WE HAVE TO BE LIBERATED FROM?
There is only one dominating force we need to be liberated from and that force is the dominion of Satan!
Having made this categorical statement herewith a summary of why I believe that the time to shake off the yoke of bondage is now.......
Fly Beloved Africa Fly!
FOUNDERS STATEMENT OF PERSONAL CONVICTION
“WE BELIEVE THAT WHEN GOD CREATED THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA HE PLACED INTO THE SOIL OF AFRICA A MAGNIFICENT ABUNDANCE OF RESOURCES, MANY OF WHICH HAVE YET TO BE DISCOVERED.
WE BELIEVE THAT THE TIME HAS COME FOR THESE RESOURCES TO BE RELEASED TO THE BENEFIT OF THE PEOPLE OF AFRICA SO THAT AFRICA MAY BECOME A
SHINING BEACON OF HOPE TO THE REST OF THE WORLD.
WE BELIEVE THAT IN EVERY COUNTRY IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA GOD IS RAISING UP PRINCIPLE DRIVEN INDIVIDUALS WHOM HE IS ASKING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR BECOMING THE PRIMARY DRIVERS OF THE PROCESS OF AFRICA BEING HEALED FROM THE HURTS OF HER PAST, BECOMING JUSTLY GOVERNED BY HER OWN PEOPLE AND MAXIMISING HER ECONOMIC POTENTIAL.
WE BELIEVE THAT GOD IS NOW CONNECTING THESE INDIVIDUALS AND THAT THE OUTCOME WILL BE A GOD ORDAINED CONTINENTAL STRATEGY DESIGNED
TO OVERCOME EVIL AND RELEASE GOD GIVEN POTENTIAL IN EVERY ARENA OF AFRICAN SOCIETY.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE BELIEVE THAT THOSE AFRICANS WHO HAVE BECOME POLITICALLY, ECONOMICALLY AND SOCIALLY ACTIVE SINCE 1990 ARE THE CATALYTIC GENERATION IN THIS REGARD.”
WE BELIEVE THAT IT IS ULTIMATELY THE HEARTS DESIRE OF FATHER GOD TO SEE THE PEOPLE OF AFRICA DEMONSTRATING THEIR CAPACITY AND ABILITY TO COLLABORATE WITH ONE ANOTHER TO BUILD A GOD FEARING, NON-RACIAL, FEAR FREE, DYNAMIC, GROWTH FOCUSSED, WELL GOVERNED, MUTUALLY SUPPORTIVE FEDERATION OF AFRICAN COUNTRIES.
WE BELIEVE THAT NOTWITHSTANDING THE MAGNITUDE OF THE TASK, THE TIME HAS COME FOR US TO START THE PROCESS OF BRINGING THIS GRAND VISION TO FRUITION.
WE BELIEVE THAT THE SEASON IS UPON US TO START THE PROCESS OF TRANSFORMING AFRICA INTO A COLLABORATIVE FEDERATION OF WELL GOVERNED, OPPORTUNITY FOCUSSED INDEPENDENT STATES.
I BELIEVE THAT WE NEED TO RECOGNISE THE WISDOM OF THE AFRICAN PROVERB WHICH SAYS “THE ONLY WAY TO EAT AN ELEPHANT IS ONE BITE AT A TIME”
ALWAYS BEING CONSCIOUS OF THE ‘BIG PICTURE’ AND APPRECIATING THAT EVEN WHEN WE GET THE JIGSAW PUZZLE OF OUR OWN PERSONAL EXISTENCE TOGETHER, WE REMAIN BUT ONE PIECE IN THE JIGSAW PUZZLE OF THE FAMILY WE COME FROM, THE COMMUNITY WE ARE PART OF AND THE NATION THAT GIVES US OUR IDENTITY.
