Love, peace, joy, connection, and discernment. These are a couple things I’ve felt walking with God this trip.
The first day I went with Marie. We walked a long time in the heat but God sheltered us with shade and we rested on seats many times. In one of the homes a Christian woman said she had nightmares that her newly built house would be destroyed. She was told by witch doctors to destroy it as well. We went inside of the house and prayed away the demons from it.
The second day my mom and I only went to one house because tribal conflict caused last minute changes. Instead of leaving, God lead us to spontaneously share the Gospel along the road and brought The Good News to many. Many people accepted and many seeds were planted.
The third day I went with Roman, Evan, and my mom. After we shared the Gospel with two houses we went back to an Ethiopian church to find out that one of our groups was attacked by a bull. Their translator badly hurt his hand so we prayed over him. My mom stayed with him while Roman, Evan, our translators, and I set out to spread the Gospel. We shared the Gospel at the market twice, at a house, and on the side of a path. Once, we came upon a house full of people who were drinking and we wanted to share The Gospel but they refused. As we left, we prayed that they could come to Christ.
Before this trip even started, I prayed that God would teach me something new. God has fully answered this prayer through learning more about Him, Ethiopian culture, people, myself, and more.
Praise God.
“After this, Jesus traveled about from one town and village to another, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God.” Luke 8:1
