In Ghana for a Conference

I attended a pastor and leaders conference called Iron Sharpeneth Iron hosted by Dr Dag Heward-Mills - He organizes these conferences to touch the lives of many ministers from all parts of the globe. He has a peculiar grace, among other things, to help would–be leaders recognize the call of God on their lives, develop a peculiar passion for ministry and nurture and enhance the call on their lives. There were over 500o people in attendance. The conference was life changing.
I was invited by Dr Dag Heward-Mills to be an international board member for his crusade - Healing Jesus Crusade
It was my first time in Ghana and I must say, what a beautiful country!

Nigeria

Two weeks ago was fantastic...Visited two countries in West Africa - Nigeria and Ghana.
I was in Nigeria to attend an outreach event hosted by a group called Strength Factor.
There were over close to 230 people in attendance which included various pastors from different walks of life despite the fuel scarcity. It was held at Guiding Light Assembly, Park View, Ikoyi and it was on "How to make your vision happen".
It was awesome!

The power and process of change

Its another month again and thank God for bringing us to the second half of the year.
The whole of the Christain life is about the power and the ability to change by God and His Word. The true vaue of a Christain before God is not measured by what he has or what he has done, but by whom he has become.
Whatever God might have promised you, He can make it happen in the twinkling of an eye, but He is more intent and concerned about the process of change than He is about your achievements.
Joseph is a case in point. He was given a promise and a dream of leadership at the age 17 but he did not experience the fulfillment until he changed and yielded to the process and became who God wanted him to be - Mature, Humble, Forgiving and Wise.
God uses various means & methods to bring us to the place of ultimate transformation e.g.
His Spirit - "The spirit of God will come upon you...And you will be turned into another man"
His Word - "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind"
His Will - "Repent for the Kingdom of God is near..."
Watch this space - During the course of the week, I'll be updating you on my trip to Nigeria & Ghana.
