ZIMBABWE EZEKIEL GUTI UNIVERSITY (ZEGU)
ZEGU church will never be the same. This Sunday God gave us favour to be with our Chancellor Professor Ezekiel H. Guti and Apostle Eunor Guti. The service started with a powerful Bible study on the Kingdom of God led by our deputy chaplain Pastor Enock Gwasira. He taught on what the Kingdom of God is and how one can enter the Kingdom. Students and staff participated through the study. After Bible study students gave testimonies of how God had changed their lives since coming to ZEGU. Some who experienced attacks during exams and were prayed for gave testimonies of how God had helped them to pass their exams. The service had a lively praise and worship after which our Father shared explaining the purpose of ZEGU and how people can be blessed by God. He emphasized that one needs to do his or her work as unto God who rewards people. He made an altar call and 14 students gave their lives to Christ. After the service the sick were prayed for and a number of people were healed and delivered. Of note was one who had been involved in a car accident and suffered a fractured collar bone and had had pain since then. He was prayed for, delivered and the pain left. Four people were delivered from various demonic oppressions. We give all the glory to God.

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY LIVE BROADCAST
Evangelist Emmanuel Paradzai (South Africa) featured this Sunday with “Overcoming Life Challenges through Faith”. He began with testimony of how he suffered from COVID 19 in 2020 and began to be fearful because he was focusing too much on the media and thought he was going to die. From the day he was prayed for he found his faith recovering and he pulled through. We are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ. Whatever you are going through God is able to take you through that situation. When faith fails everything fails. It is the shield that blocks the attacks of the enemy. We cannot talk of faith without the Word of God. We must confess the Word of faith that is the condition for it to work. Speak things that are not as if they are. If you believe God a miracle is going to happen in your life

MOROCCO
We give glory to the God of our Father Apostle Ezekiel Guti for his grace. Our Sunday service was well attended with 29 adults and 11 children. We continued with our fellowship and the church is growing in the love of God as we break bread and eat together. On Friday we held a special fellowship and dinner for students at local universities. Our 6 midweek in-person and online Bible study groups and prayer meetings continued with good attendance. Thank you for your prayers.

All the ministries are now meeting and functional. We are believing God for our own place of worship. Glory be unto God. Thank you for your prayers.

BARBADOS
We thank the God of our Father Apostle Ezekiel Guti for another awesome week. We continue with our morning glory prayer every day of the week and believers are coming out to pray. Our intercessory group also meets every Monday Evening to intercede for our Father and Mother and the work of God. God is indeed answering our prayers. Tuesday night, we have the Evangelical Ministry where we reach out to lost souls and to the backsliders through the Word of God. It has indeed been effective with several believers coming back to the Lord. Wednesday night, we had a powerful session of Bible Study as we dig deep into the word of God. Believers are indeed enjoying the interaction as they study the word. Friday night was powerful. Many believers turned out for prayer and Pastor David delivered a powerful message that was followed by deliverance. Sunday Service was awesome with powerful Testimonies of God's miraculous deeds. A believer testified of God providing him with a job and was now able to buy a cell phone that he desperately needed and many more. Our beloved Pastor David delivered a compelling message where he encouraged believers to have a right relationship with God and 10 youths came forward to receive Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Attendance was 36. We thank you for your prayers.

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI'S MESSAGE


I borrowed a spanner the forgot to give it back and decided it’s just a spanner. I took it back after being convicted by the word of God and the owner said you are convicted because of a spanner, what about us who steal bicycles?
There are things in your life that need to die - if you keep sitting on it or covering it, it will wake up one day and trouble you and embarrass you.
There's a saying that if someone’s house was destroyed by a lion - it means prepare to protect yourself so it doesn’t happen to you.....TO BE CONTINUED. God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you,
