Friday is here already; time seems to be flying by. Chapel this morning and Pastor Stephen John from Pretoria spoke to us and it was amazing that his testimony so matched ours! We then had a session on the Psalms with Apostle Aje and he brought some insightful teaching on the prophetic which was another ‘Bing!’ light bulb moment for us both and we understood things of the past with real clarity.
We went to the garage to fill up with petrol – that was a new experience as 5 garage boys leapt to attention: one filled the tank another 2 washed the windows at the front, yet another washed the back windows and a fifth gave us 2 South African flags! We were well chuffed!
We then went to Corbus’ house to meet with him and Prophet Dave Turner, the one from Maine, USA who had a word for us. I love Corbus’ house and all of his furniture. That man has such good taste and such an eye for placement. I really enjoyed talking about food and cooking with him and he gave me a few ideas on how to cook and serve ‘Pap’ and which sauces go well with it. Up to now we have only had tomato and onion sauce but we were delighted to know that chacalaca sauce is also good with it. Duncan LOVES chacalaca and can’t get enough of it since he sampled it on his sausage at Mugg and Bean (obviously!). So we made a plan and I think we are going round there for a braai tomorrow before the evening meeting. Yum! (‘Make a plan’ is an oft-used expression out here!)
Yesterday we had college in the morning and then Prophet Graham spoke to us and ministered in the prophetic at the end of the morning. God was powerfully there and there were many prophetic words given and pictures were flowing. We then took Jenny and Graham to re-acquaint, in Graham’s case, with Mugg and Bean for lunch. Dropped Jenny off at Chantal’s and then Graham spent a time with us before returning to Nola and Andre’s for tea.
The evening service was a different experience again. Yvette lead worship and it was awesome. The way she can “La la” sends shivers down my spine. She can communicate more in a La La than most of us can say in a whole paragraph!
Prophet Dave than preached on the marriage covenant and the man’s covering of his wife and the desire of his wife being empowering for the man. That is obviously simplifying it but the meeting culminated in a rugby scrum to display body and it was a powerful spectacle to behold. Shame that poor old Duncan fell and grazed his knee in the charge. Aje said that we should rather call it an
OverSCRUmmer’s conference! Witty eh?!
So Duncan is having a nap and I am catching up on e mails. Harry is a follower now and I am so pleased! So had to e mail him. Also, thanks, Nicki and Lucy for communications and will e mail you too soon. Janice, thank you for the e mail. Will reply properly soon.
Another meeting tonight and we are having Apostle Jan from Citrusdal (sp?) to speak. We met him at the Summit last year and are looking forward to seeing him again.
Tomorrow we have a Ministry session at 9am till 1 and then the braai, weather permitting, then another meeting tomorrow night.
Our landlord has been round with a workman today to measure the wardrobe doors which were spoilt in the flood so we will be completely repaired next week some time!
So I’ll sign off for now and post the blog before Duncan wakes up and stops me using the photo I’ve just taken!
Keep reading and commenting, my lovely followers! XX
You sound to be having a very busy and enjoyable time. I have been baking today for tomorrows workday at Church. Made two largish chocolate cakes, several coconut pyramids, and a load of little buns. I also made some gingerbread but that turned out an overcooked disaster so have given it to the birds, who will always eat the fruits of anything that goes wrong!! Peter has been doing the 'News letter' and shopping and also collected some wood from a place in Ravensthorpe which he delivered at Church, when he came home helped with the washing up and putting things in boxes for tomorrow. Now we are having a bit of a rest and we are having a Chinese takeaway for our meal tonight.So we have had a busy time also. Love Mum/Pam xx
ReplyDeleteI agree with your mum that you are so so busy, how does it all go in and how do you remember it all,I suppose this writing down every day helps doesn't it ? God is working in powerful ways there and you are soaking it all up like a sponge. Must say though Duncan looks totally chilled!! xx
ReplyDeleteThe sight of Duncan preaching in his dressing gown and slippers will remain with me a long time. He is quickly becoming known as an acting Prophet.
