Malawi Outreach - The great commission ! Matt 28:19

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hi STEEMIT community !

I'm new to the family.

I want to start by thanking everybody involved for creating this amazing platform. Giving people opportunities in life they would have never had.

A friend Len Du Rand introduced me to Steemit. He is also a member on Steemit and a brilliant writer.

I am a freelance Director / Editor / and everything else that is needed in the film industry.. (These days you have to do everything)
I had an idea of creating some weird and wacky introduction video of myself (Probably will do it anyways) BUT I need to focus more on travel arrangements....

You see, Gods time is not the same as our time.

Let me start by showing my last film. - Malawi Outreach -

I am not a rich person, barely paying my rent on time each month. So when God tells you to pack up and go for 2 weeks to a country that you have never been to, teaching people about the gospel of Christ...
Well lets just say there's a lot of red flags and questions jumping up. (Especially if you've never left your own country to begin with) PS. I'm in South Africa..

How will I pay for this ?
I can't work during this time to pay my normal bills ?

LET ME TELL YOU THIS.
Philippians 4:19 - And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

We were told that the Malawi Outreach will be around R10 000 - $800
It turned out more to be R15 000 - $1300 because of medical bills etc.

I felt like crying... seriously.

So I made a poster.

God made sure that I had all the finances I need. Medical, Travel, Food etc...
I didn't have to use ANY of my own money to go and do His will.

Then I did cry..... (Faith Michael, Faith) That's what my wife tells me.

2 Months Later !!

I feel the need to go with missionaries, to go and film the Glory of God, so that thousands, perhaps millions of people can see how He is building His kingdom. This is no holiday, believe me. If it was, more people would have done it.

God uses everybody in their own way to Glorify His name. I want to show the world through film, so that people don't have to go to this remote villages, but rather help missionaries that is already doing it.

SO MORE GREAT / AWESOME NEWS !

My next destination God gave me... INDIA,

4 Days ago - I got a phone call from RA, asking if I don't perhaps want to join them in India -
( RED FLAGS )

FAITH MICHAEL....

3 Day's ago - God, please give me a sign if you would like me to go to India to film in your name...

2 Day's ago - Got a message from RA that someone donated my ticket money...

SO ! I'm going to INDIA... Still needs some funds to make it work... but I've got two months... AND HE WILL PROVIDE...

This is me.. and signing of on this post.
Hope you all have a great time and life.
