Gratitude is a good thing to use in your life.

Joy is not a request but a command. In Philippians 4:4 we are instructed to rejoice in the Lord. Just like a magnet to metal, a thankful heart will always attract God’s attention. In times when you look around and nothing is going right for you, the Bible instructs you to keep the spirit of Gratitude as a weapon to guard against anxiety and ingratitude. Look around closely, I believe there will be one or two things that you can be thankful about and rejoice in.

Turn your devastation into desperation for God.

In these desperate and devastating times of financial challenges there is a lot of harm is spreading across the country. People are losing their jobs, parents can no longer take care of their families efficiently, the unemployed find it hard to get a job, and crime is rising as wages are going down.

Still there is one positive thing that we can do in these negative times, that is to take all of our frustrations and disappointments and pour them to the Lord through prayer. There is a pattern in the Bible through all ages, in desperate times people have always cried out to God and God ALWAYS answered. I am a strong believer that as a nation if we turn to the Lord, God will not only hear us, he will restore what we lost and even surpass some of our expectations.

Can you imagine having a financial crisis that does not come at the end of the month, but is a daily burden in your life?

Or being born into poverty and having no say what so ever in rising out of that life style. That is the unfortunate situation for many people of Africa. Again, this is not by choice, and it is not because they are lazy. It is because of the systematic poverty challenges that have infested the way of life in Africa. It is true that some people in Africa are experiencing financial growth, but the majority of the citizens do not. For most people education is not a guarantee in Africa, and success is a farfetched concept. In fact, most believe if they ever do succeed, that it only happened due to a fluke in the system.

I believe this financial season will pass, but we will always have our dependence on God’s sovereignty through our lifetimes. I encourage everyone to reflect on the challenges that face people around the globe before you think to complain about your situation.

From 33% AIDS infected to 5% infected in less than two decades.

At one point in the past the World Health Organization projected that Uganda would collapse by early 2000. The Uganda collapse was to be due to the fact that one-third of the population was going to pass away from AIDS infection. Another third would be too sick to work. The final third would not be able to sustain the economy. Today that prediction has been proven wrong, AIDS is no longer the number one killer. God is a great God!

Our orphaned children are so Amazing!

Our orphaned children are so amazing. The end of the school term is approaching in the schools of Africa. In just a few short weeks our children are going to be taking their end of the term exams and they are all expecting to do very well. It has been an amazing testimony to watch the transformation of these children who came in with zero education and were also illiterate. Now these same children are taking the forefront positions in the private schools that they attend. The Bible says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” and we see this being very true to our children. We can easily see some of our children as leaders and entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Let us pray for a generation of leaders to arise even in the midst of their misfortunate situations and thank you all for being part of this agenda.

Uganda has a bright future.

Uganda could use prayer for the upcoming year. In the year of 2011 Uganda will have another opportunity to elect a president to lead the beautiful country. We believe through prayer and faith people will only elect whom God has appointed. We have seen a lot happening in this country over the years and our only prayer is that God will keep directing hearts and lives to his prophecies even during such times. Please you join us in prayer that God will go ahead of us and lead this country for ongoing transformation and change.

Spreading God’s message as a family.

One of my resolutions for this year was for me to have a traveling partner as I travel the United States. This person would stand by my side and help me spread God’s transformation to churches, cities, and communities around the nation. I decided there was no better partner to take with me than my beautiful wife Eve. What an opportunity we have been given, doing God’s work alongside pastors and leaders as a family. Since we started God has added more excitement to the mission through this. I feel I am getting more and more prayers live on site while I speak and this is so wonderful. We are also looking into traveling together and spending our time in different churches within the same cities so we can spend our time most efficiently on these special weekends.
