A Climactic Conclusion – Lokoja, Nigeria – Day 5

Another historic Gospel Campaign has just come to a climactic conclusion here in Lokoja, Nigeria.  Tonight Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke preached a clear Gospel message on repentance and the great majority of the 150,000 present prayed with him to receive salvation and forgiveness from sin.  The cross is the centerpiece of the Christian faith and everything else must revolve around it.  When the cross is preached, a resounding “Amen” can be heard from Heaven in the form of signs, wonders and miracles.

–        An 8-year-old girl, deaf and dumb from birth heard and spoke tonight for the first time in her life!

–        A man who had been an occultist for the past 24 years was crippled by some debilitating disease.  During the campaign here, he surrendered his life to Jesus and then, last night, he brought his cultic fetishes to be   destroyed.  Minutes later, during the prayer for the sick he received a miraculous healing and can now walk!

–        A young lady who was crippled for 6 years had to be carried back and forth to the meetings all week.  I saw her sitting in the second row during the Fire Conference and, although I did not know what was wrong with her, I felt prompted to pray for her.  I went down and laid hands on her in the name of Jesus.  Tonight she walked up on the platform on her own…totally healed!

There were many wonderful testimonies tonight…to many for us to hear, but one thing is certain; Jesus is at work in Lokoja!!  Before the meeting came to a close, Evangelist Bonnke pronounced a prayer of blessing over the crowd and the people received it in faith shouting a mighty “AMEN” after each declaration.  As we begin the long journey home, we go with a strong sense of fulfillment, knowing that we have been about our Father’s business.  I pray that you feel that same approval from Heaven knowing that as you have prayed and given, you have been a vital part of this Divine initiative.

After ten years of ministry (almost in exclusively) in Nigeria, we are now setting our sights on other parts of Africa.  Next month we will return to Togo after nearly twenty years.  We are confident that a huge harvest is waiting to be reaped there and we need your help to go.  Please continue to support us with your prayers and finances…we depend on you.

Together in the Harvest,

Evangelists Daniel Kolenda and Reinhard Bonnke
