One of the highlights of 2020 was the embedding of the player for TECN TV Network on the blog. It was revolutionary! You can watch David broadcast GLOBAL IMPACT live! On the blog. Global Impact airs Monday through Friday at 3:00PM Eastern Time, which is 12:00PM Pacific Time as well as 8:00PM GMT for West Africa.  There are also lots of Christian world view shows 24 hours 7 days on www.tecntv.com.



Beyond the statistics, as God spoke us as a ministry, we are taking new steps in 2021. And first new step is Evaluation:


How and what have we done in the last 4 years? I guess you can evaluate yourself that we have not done bad. And we have a strong potential.


Second Step is Refocusing. Although we are taking new steps, it doesn't mean we will be doing new stuff. We will rather sharpen the same message. And what is the message? That Jesus died and Rose for us to be save. That is not all.


He wants us to be his committed followers. Or as the Bible puts is, His disciple.


A Disciples is not just a follower of someone. A disciple is someone who:

1. Understands His master's message.

2. Accept and embrace the master’s message.

3. Makes total commitment to promote that which he is convinced to be the ultimate part.

4. Lives his life as if the masters message sis the most important value in life.


Third Step for us is Repositioning. This will include representing the message and the blog in a more dynamic and consistent manner.

We will also want to see our visitors here comment more on articles and TECN TV programmes. Share with us your experiences and if any of our messages mean anything to you.

Step four, we will expand our work from just writing on evangelism, discipleship a s missions to creating online classes on how to make a share the gospel. How to grow a new believer. How to make a disciple and how your disciple can make his own disciple.

Lots of great stuff, huh?

Why new steps?

Jesus talking to the Pharisees one day spoke in the Jewish cultural setting of wine preservation.

Mark 2v22 “And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.” NIV


Finally, the fifth step is from you. We will like to hear from you. Don't just visit our blog, read an article, watch TECN TV or run through the photos. No. Talk back to us. Share your experiences. Or ask questions. It is time to start living for the Lord and not for yourself.


A quick info. On this Anniversary today, we are making a little change on our blog name. WMA stands for WORLD MISSIONS AFRICA.

HENCEFORTH, WMA will stand for WORLD MISSIONS FROM AFRICA. however, the acronym will still be WMA.

May 2021 be a blessed year for you. May it be a year of grown, deeper walk with God and a year that you will either begi n to make disciples for Jesus.


When you get to Him at the end, He will say, Well done, faithful servant. Enter my Father's rest.


Amen. Let's hear from you.

LEAH SHARIBU, THE TRIUMPH OF CONVICTION IN CHRIST

By David Pam McQuel Leah Sharibu 15 Years Old's Triumph of Faith. This unfortunate captivity of Leah Sharibu is unacceptable to Christians, to Nigeria, to all true freedom loving people of the world and to the modern civilization. Azuka Onwuka's op-ed in the Nigerian Punch newspaper, The trial of Leah Sharibu, the sacrificial lamb", When the abducted Dapchi schoolgirls were returned last week by Boko Haram terrorists , a new story developed from the kidnap saga. Excluding the five dead girls that did not make it back, only one girl named Leah Sharibu was not brought back by the terrorists . The reason given was that she refused to renounce Christianity and convert to Islam . Consequently, Boko Haram members refused to release her." The BBC gave an account of the abduction. "Militants stormed the town on the evening of Monday, 19 February. They headed towards the compound of a girls' boarding school as they fired guns into the air. F...

The Great Light

In 1993 during a pastor's retreat the Lord spoke to my heart in a moment of meditation and prayer, about one of the two passages of Scriptures that define my call. The moment was an intense one for me because just as my salvation, the baptism with the Holy Spirit and my calling to fulltime ministry, this revelation was authoritative and definite. Isaiah 9:2 The people walking in darkness     have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness     a light has dawned. There are tens and hundreds of millions of people in cities and rural areas living in darkness, this darkness is spiritual rather than physical or intellectual, they are in need of the Light. Jesus is the Light. He is the GREAT Light. Every nation and people on earth need Him. And the prophet here spoke in the language of prophecy. He spoke in the past tense, as if they have already seen the Light. The calling of the church is not to shine the Light on ...

THE BALANCED APPROACH TO MISSIONS

E t h a n   D a u d a   Y u s u f Am I successful in my ministry and calling? Is my success measured by the size of my worship centre, the number of my church members, the amount of tithes and offerings? Who sets the standard? Before we answer the above questions, let's consider the words of Jesus Christ in the gospel of Matthew 28. "18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen" The above scripture clearly states what Jesus Christ require from us. The mandate is to make disciples. How do we do this. Firstly, to baptize them, this symbolizes initiation into the body of Christ. The second is teaching them. Teaching does not simply mea...
