When God finally gave me the go ahead to start this blog on the 1st of January 2017, I knew exactly what He wanted of me.
There are three key words that propel the blog and they are:
Evangelism
Witnessing Jesus to those who either have never heard about His sacrifice for them or have not understood the message of salvation. And helping lead them to Christ in prayer of confessing His lordship over their lives.
Discipleship
God's desire is that a convert grows to become a disciple. To achieve this, spiritual leaders and other maturing believers must help new believers learn and grow into disciples.

Missions
This is the aspect of the Church that focuses on expanding the kingdom and spreading the gospel to foreign peoples and cultures and nations. It is the collect effort of the Church. Every other budget spending is secondary to it.

These words give us an overview of God's plan for His kingdom growth. In all these three Christian obligations is the root of spreading and expansion of the Church. And no other engagement guarantees the fulfilment of Acts 1:8.
And all posts led promoted these key areas.
We thank God for a very good first year. Here is a review of World Missions Africa's first year.

1. An extraordinary transformation
The true life story of a former radical Muslim lawyer in Nigeria who had an encounter with the Lord. She got saved, went through unimaginable persecution and yet stood her grounds. Today she preaches boldly the gospel she once labour to destroy.

2. The Heart of it
This post is about the timeless purpose of Easter. Beyond the holidays, religious rituals and festivities is the most extraordinary work of mercy when God took on human nature to die and save mankind.

3. The Church and Missions
Hitting the nail on the head on the forgotten, disregarded or ignore purpose of the church which is to win the world. Take a look at the origin of the church in Jerusalem from the day of Pentecost and observe through her development what her focus and main goal was.

4. Starting a conversation
Many believers have heard or read that God expects them to reach out to the world around them be it at home, in the office, in the bus, with friends or in their neighbourhood.
Many believers have heard or read that God expects them to reach out to the world around them be it at home, in the office, in the bus, with friends or in their neighbourhood.
But many believers have a problem with how to approach people and how to start a conversation that can lead to sharing the gospel. It is a great blog.
5. The drama surrounding His birth
The birth of Jesus to the Jews was as ordinary as anyone's. However, reading today from true account of the reality of this supernatural birth, we can see that it was everything but ordinary.

It is the only birth among humans that of all the people who played a role in it, no one understood what was going on. Everyone was left speechless. In this melodrama, we try to look at how those involved staggered with understanding what was going on.
6. The Holy Spirit the Enabler
Jesus told the disciples to wait in Jerusalem. To do nothing unless they receive enablement from the Holy Spirit. The main purpose of the Holy Spirit is not for spiritual gymnastics or spiritual ego. It is purposely for enablement. If anyone truly wants to witness Christ, they must receive this ability from the Holy Spirit.

7. The faulty circle
The Church the centuries has a circle that seem unbreakable. The Church gets revived, goes in fire for God, grows, flourish the becomes relaxed. After that she goes into religious mode and the flesh comes in and she ends up very weak, dehydrated and turns into the worship men.

Finally darkness sets in and strange beliefs and doctrines take over as the church is led by men who don't even know the Lord. Then the remnants cry out to God and then revival comes and the circle is repeated again and again and again. How do we break from this?
8. The Making of an Effective Mission Field
The mission field is not the bed of roses. It is not the local Church. It is not a financial organization or a career opportunity. The mission field is the battle front of the kingdom of God where infantry soldiers who have rejected other career ambitions to go to the front lines.

It is a base for men and women sold out to God for the purpose of spreading the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ among the pagans and foreign culture. However, it is not enough to have willing men and women going to the mission field. There are other very important provisions that without them a missionary will be totally ineffective.
9. The Christ Opportunity
A very timely message at Christmas. Christmas has been commercialized. It has been ritualized. It has become to most people who celebrate it a time of gluttony, drunkenness and socializing. All these pagan practices are totally against the teaching of the man the claim to celebrate. Besides all these is an extraordinary opportunity for the church world to reach out to the world, simply by explaining what Christmas is all about. This sweat less evangelism.

This year we look up to God as we keep sharing these timeless blogs of the word of God. We want to serve the Church, the mission field and the world by presenting the gospel to them.
Matthew 24:14 is our focus.
"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
Isaiah 9:2 is our drive.
"The people walking in darkness
have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of the shadow of death
a light has dawned."
"The people walking in darkness
have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of the shadow of death
a light has dawned."
