The harvest is plentiful, and the workers are rising up!

I’ve just returned home from teaching a three-week evangelism training in a neighboring province. 12 Mozambican men from eight different districts were chosen to be trained and then sent back to their homes with the authority to train the other churches and multiply the harvest. The students were trained for one on one and gospel truck evangelism.

The last week of the training they preached in over 40 different gospel truck outreaches and lead 1063 people to a decision for Christ!

 

 

2023 Evangelism School Students

Amongst all the salvations and miracles, one testimony from one of the student evangelists, Domingo, stands out above the rest. Domingo testified that just a year earlier he had been an abusive drunk. He testified of not just beating his wife, but his female neighbor as well.

His wife a believer attended church and would pray for him. She told him one day that as she slept, she had a dream where she saw him standing in front of a multitude preaching. Domingo thought the dream was silly and that it would never happen, but the Lord was working on his heart.

He finally started going to church, received the Lord, and was set free from his addiction to alcohol!

Through the evangelism training, his wife’s prophetic dream of him preaching was fulfilled.

Domingo then testified that on the last day of outreach we were in his neighborhood, and he was called on to preach the gospel to the very people who knew him as a drunk. Many responded to the gospel.

When he was finished, he approached three older men to the side and ended up personally leading them to the Lord. He explained that these three men were friends that used to drink with him and sell him alcohol. When he had no money, he would beg alcohol off them.

Now, set free from his addiction, in love with Jesus, and equipped to share the gospel, he had the privilege to lead his old drinking buddies to our precious Savior!

Domingos' Neighborhood hearing the Gospel.

I am constantly taken back by the thought of how immeasurable the work of God is. 

Yes, for a week of outreach, we may be able to show a certain number of decisions for Christ. 

Then I think, what could the possible number of souls impacted for Christ be through the lives of even 12 young men in the bush towns of Mozambique who are truly equipped to preach the gospel?

It is truly immeasurable!
