As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be when the son of man returns. In the days before the flood, men were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; they knew nothing of what would happen until the flood came and took them away.

We read these words of Jesus in Matthew 24 too lightly in our day, for those who even read outside what your church gives you to read. We do not see that we are in the now of these things. We don’t know to ask, what is it about the days of Noah that Jesus Christ who was and is and is to come, Him that was in the beginning, is today and will be into eternity; knew was an important reference for those of us who are watching and waiting for his return?

Well, you could start by reading about Noah in Genesis, that s a beginning. We know that after a bunch of genealogies, Noah was instructed to build an ark to very precise dimensions and measurement. We know that in that day the world was filled with sin and God had expressed regret at ever making man. We know that Noah was mocked for his endeavours… we know that the animals came in 2 by two.

But do we know that Noah was the 10th from Adam in the line of Seth? Did you know that in that day, the knowledge of God and his ways was passed down father to son. Adam taught Seth, Seth taught Enosh, Enosh taught Kenan, and so on and so forth. Did you know that Lamech lived at the same time as Adam? Did you know that this line was a line of Kings? Who kept the knowledge of God? So that by the time Noah was being instructed to build the ark, he wasn’t hapless and clueless as to what was happening, remember his great grand father was Enoch who by his commitment to know God was raised above all the kings of the earth as a king of Kings. Enoch wrote of the things he learnt of God and in Gods presence. You can read his writings, they speak of the days of creation, the angels that fell and what set them on the path against God that they are on. Enochs writings are the foundations of the reality we live in. Read it! understand what it is that institutionalised religion doesn’t want you to understand.

The times of Men are well recorded in the book of the jubilees. Here you meet and understand the forefathers unto a people set apart for Yahweh!

The understanding of the foundations of a nation set apart for Yahweh and the laws that govern and encircle this nation is found in the book of Jasher.

Theres a reason that these books are no longer considered canon, yet they were for hundreds of years, only to be removed in the last few centuries… why?

Perhaps so that you may read the words of Jesus and not appreciate the weight of them enough to take heed and work out your salvation?

Where is the church in all this? Jesus addresses it, perhaps building on the words of Isaiah 28 where it talks about the priests and prophets being drunk and setting tables of vomit…

Matthew 24:48-51
But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

If you still think that I write these things because I am bitter at the church and church hurt, then understand you have chosen fear over faith. Fear of the unknown against the faith required in the unfamiliar.

Come out of her and be set apart. The son of man is knocking into our days. Do you hear him? The earth is wrecking in birth pains, can you see it? The son of perdition has revealed himself and they make ready the abomination of desolation… are you paying attention?

Anyway, here is a basic run through of some useful information in this video. Wake up from the lie, prepare yourself, the time is here.

How do you prepare yourself? Learn, read all you can, learn to pray, to fast, to hear God, recognize his hand in the storm. Learn while you still can.

Recently my friend said something that I knew to be true within my deepest self. She said, ‘… I have learnt to hold friendships loosely.’ I recognized myself in her words. I remembered the hot knife of rejection that has seared my heart from days before I understood the big feelings that often overwhelmed me. This soft heart of mine has taken many searing’s, so much so, that I have learnt to honor the pain for what it is un the moment that it cuts and then pick myself up and keep going. When I do go, I rarely look back with any regret or expectation.

In the rivers of relationship of the past 7 or so years, I have observed a pattern where it seems God, erm… dramatically shook our lives in ways that totally changed the direction we were going. In my Life I can pin point 2 major ‘shake-ups’ and 3 smaller but still dramatic redirections starting in 2011, then 2017 for the really big ones and then 2018, 2020, 2022. Many of us met in the whirlwinds of shaking and redirection. Today I stand with one or two, firmly and decidedly outside the gushing rivers. It had become clear that the way of the many was simply not The Way. Many in the rivers have or have had some knowledge of this but have not gathered their own strength to go against the tide and do the hard work of climbing out of the river.

I know that for a short time, I will be here, standing by the riverside, waiting to help out the few who can gather their last strength and dare to come out.

In the meantime, this woman carries Yahweh on her lips, you’ve got to know Him to know her otherwise you will trust the wolves to your own end. This woman literally describes in this video, my life especially between 2017 and now. I know we are more; I know it’s not just me and my friend with whom we have learnt to hold friendships loosely…. We are more. Listen, Repent, Come out of her and her drunkenness.

This is today's prayer call, November 4, 2022, almost the whole call is provided.

“I will not submit to a foreign ideology and a foreign god brought here on a boat by a thief!” If you have never heard some variation of this thought, you might not be African.

Theres an undisputed resurgence of African Traditional Practices across Africa that is rising alongside a consciousness that European influence has been far more destructive to Africans than it has been beneficial. Whereas there is a lot of truth in the sentiment that is hard to disagree with, it leaves little to no room for the reality which is that a belief in a single ultimate God – Monotheism is widespread in Africa and a huge clue that points to the fact that Africans believed in the Supreme God – Yahweh. Another one that will need you to scratch the surface a little bit is the fact that all modern versions of the bible are translated from the Ethiopic bible. Erm… where in the world is Ethiopia? When you continue to scratch that surface, you will be led down a path of familiar names beyond the queen of Sheba that will bear witness to what archeologists are only now publicizing that they know of ancient Egypt, Nubia, Ethiopia and other very African civilizations. But this is not where I am going. I am writing about the notion that the bible came to Africa by boat. It did not. Like coffee, some people found it, loved it, wanted to be the sole owners of it so they took it, processed it, packaged it and brought it back to us making us believe that it’s a superior product to what we had before…

There is strong evidence that early forms of Christianity, (i.e. belief that Jesus is God and had walked this earth and died a sacrificial death to give men a way to eternal life in a world fallen away from God) were present in North and East Africa as early as the 1st and 4th centuries AD, well before the European missionaries set foot on this land making way for the colonization of the land and her peoples in the 19th century.

The news of Jesus Christ, who He is and what that means for us, was in this territory 1500 years before the European interpretation of the gospel ever laid a foot in this land. It's interesting that the patterns of extraction, packaging/changing form, and reselling to Africa that has been artificially impoverished, are replicated when it comes to the gospel – remember the coffee analogy. So much so that we can no longer recognize hallmarks of the law and the ways of people who knew Jesus, embedded in our cultures today. The European Christianization demanded that the African despised all that was his and delivered himself as a clean sheet on which a new reality can be overwritten.

Before the 19th century, this early Christianity was distinct and integrated within African contexts, particularly in regions like Egypt, Nubia, and Ethiopia whose borders reached lower south than we know today in effect encompassing parts of modern-day Uganda, Kenya and at most the upper parts of Tanzania… but I may be stretching it now.

So let me share points that highlight the pre-colonial presence of Christianity in Africa, noting that these are only clues that indicate that there is more inside the silence and academic black out on this matter:
1. Early Christian Influence on African Culture: These early African Christian communities adapted Christianity to fit their own cultures, languages, and philosophies. Many of these churches, particularly in Ethiopia and Egypt of which there remains small populations who carry the living memory of the turn of the century… These communities developed rich traditions of Christian art, theology, and architecture that continue to be influential to this day. (Did anyone catch what Putin did earlier this year when he revealed vaulted documents and artefacts of early orthodox Christians? I hope it's not scrubbed off the net yet)

2. Egypt and the Coptic Church: Christianity in Egypt by the first century AD is traditionally attributed to the evangelist Mark, who is believed to have established the Christian community in Alexandria. This early Egyptian church became known as the Coptic Church, developing its own traditions, liturgies, and theological perspectives. The Coptic Orthodox Church remains one of the oldest Christian institutions in the world today.

3. Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church: By the fourth century, Christianity was well established in Ethiopia, with the Kingdom of Aksum officially adopting Christianity around 330 AD, under King Ezana. Ethiopian Christianity developed independently and maintained a unique character, with its own Bible translations, customs, and liturgical practices. Today the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is still a powerful cultural and spiritual testament of early Christianity in Ethiopia.

4. Nubia and Sudan: Christianity also spread to the Nubian kingdoms, located in present-day Sudan, around the sixth century. Nubian Christians built churches, developed their own Christian culture, and maintained their faith for several centuries until the spread of Islam eventually led to a decline in the Nubian Christian kingdoms.

To appreciate how this is relevant to you as a Kenyan, Ugandan or Tanzanian. Simply map out these ancient kingdoms based on the times they were at their greatest and compare these old maps with modern day maps. Consider that perhaps maybe, there is a lot more about ourselves we do not fully appreciate. A successfully colonized people, is a people who in their minds know little to nothing of who they were before the colonialist told them who they were…

Please do some reading to understand in depth what I can only summarize in the language of my own exploration. Some good reads on this subject matter are:
• Ancient African Christianity: An Introduction to a Unique Context and Tradition by David E. Wilhite – He focuses specifically on early African Christian traditions, such as those in North Africa, and explains how they developed their own theological frameworks within the African cultural contexts.
• Christianity in Africa: The Renewal of a Non-Western Religion by Kwame Bediako – He explores how African Christianity has evolved to be uniquely African, countering the notion of Christianity as a "foreign" religion.
• African Religions & Philosophy by John S. Mbiti - This book tries to lay an understanding of the African spiritual thought, which helps contextualize how Africans adapted Christianity over centuries.

The thing is, when European missionaries came in the 1800’s, they treated their own versions of Christianity as the "first" or "true" Christianity for Africans, overlooking indigenous Christian communities that had existed for centuries. The lasting effects of this as well as the intertwining of this European missionary move with the subjugation of Africans, leaves a bitter taste that is a shadow in African churches today and contributes to a lasting misconception that Christianity was brought to Africa by boat. There is strong evidence that just like science, math and medicine, the Word was here before the boats and chains were.

In conclusion, while European missionaries did bring their versions of Christianity to Africa, they did not introduce the faith to the continent. Instead, they brought new interpretations and practices, which in many cases clashed with or supplanted Africa’s earlier Christian expressions and also sowed seeds of apostasy within it.
Anyway, these are my own thoughts alongside an experimental sojourn with ChatGPT. Which for the record, I do not trust! But curiosity overrode my mistrust… let’s see how far we go…

In the meantime, please interrogate the foundations of what you believe and why you choose to believe it, lest you too be caught in the web of lies that consumes the world today.

People like to ask; ati you hear God? How!

Well, it's pretty simple and quite difficult at the same time because your ability to hear God starts with the state of your heart. How is your heart? Are you open and vulnerable within yourself to truly know what you want Vis a Vis what you are expected to be/want? Are you willing to test your heart through regular reading of your bible and examining yourself against the Scriptures?

The written word is a very intimate form of communication. You can easily get the sense of a person and the nuances that differentiate people by how they write. So first you read your bible to know, then you read your bible to measure your heart as you repent and make things right with God, then you read your bible to know God... Not to know about Him but to really know Him. Then you read your bible to understand creation through the creators eyes...

Can you see a thread here?

Read your bible. Ask that Yahweh opens your eyes and ears that you can understand what you read through the lens of His heart.

Then come back and tell me about whom you have met and the journeys you have gone with Him. Tell me what you read and hear of the creator in all He has put His hand to. Tell me, what He whispers in the height of the day that delights your heart or hurts it... Come... Tell me if you also hear God and how.

WHO IS PRAYING WHAT OUT?

I watched a video recently that has made rounds on the internet through social media and this video broke my heart. I have tried to not engage with it because each time I listen, I hear more things that break my heart. But this morning, I wondered, if my heart is broken over this matter… how much more is my Father's heart broken?

Let break down that video in which renown evangelist and prophet for a season, Teresia Wairimu, is speaking about praying the government in and out. Which in itself is problematic and you will see how as we go. [Church, you are deep in error and idolatry. It is time for your skirts to be raised over your head that the world may see your corruption as it really is. In the quiet places, you refused to repent, now God will meet you in your public spaces.]

Anyway, here is a link if you want to hear: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/151mWo4CES/

The clip starts with TW talking about how embarrassed they were watching the impeachment debacle calling it a government of war. She then raises the issue of foundations in the context of this government being founded on prayer. She says that we all thought this was a godly government whose foundations are on God because it is the one the church voted for. She closes with a call to prayer where she goes on to say that as the politicians arm themselves, the church will also arm itself in prayer. She says we prayed them in and we can pray them out. And leads her people into prayer.

Now, on the surface she has spoken a few meaningful things such as calling her congregation to think about foundations. My question here is… How much do we know about the foundations of this nation? Could it be that it is an assumption that the nation was founded in prayer?

Historical facts indicates that this nation was founded on theft, bloodshed, adultery and fornication, idolatry and elite exceptionalism. Read about the happy valley set and trace the oral histories of how the British acquired the land. These things are on Record. God in his sovereign nature snuck in at the birth of this nation and planted a seed that blossomed into the revival movement known as twakutendereza, you can read about that too. As the Lord cast his righteous seed in the land, so did Satan cast his tares in the same movement. So, when she talks of nation founded on prayer… what exactly is she talking about? We are a nation that has enjoyed Gods presence, not because we prayed over ourselves, but because He favored us for reasons only He knows. But we took it for granted and have raised idols in our hearts, in the pulpits and then machinate miracles, signs and wonders in secret places. The shepherds have turned into devourers and turned the children from their God. What foundations is she talking about?

Her words sound meaningful but only on the surface. She talks about how the government has turned against itself and the people and how embarrassed she and the church is because the church is the one that prayed the government in. But let's scratch that surface a little bit. She is shocked at how the government has turned; the church is shocked at how the government has turned… is God shocked? If He was also shocked… then is He truly God? Does He then deserve to be described as the same God yesterday today and tomorrow… Is God shocked and embarrassed about the government that He has and continues to put his favor on? Or is Gods favor limited to only what works for those who identify as the church?

She then she calls the church to prayer saying that if we prayed them in, we can pray them out…. So now, is God an elevated KYM for the church? What is His will and heart on the matter?

When true voices speak Gods heart, you call them false prophets, witches, diviners and all manner of ugly things. And so here is the church today, thinking that their shock and embarrassment is Gods shock and embarrassment. It is not; God knew exactly who he has raised to power for a time like this, precisely so that Kenyans can be beaten to submission and those in quiet rebellion can wake up into full rebellion where they shall meet the weight of Gods judgement for their rebellion.

Two things come to mind:
1. Be wary of those prophets who were once true but in their latter days are driven by their souls
1 Kings 13:11-25
2. Men have set idols before them that stumble their hearts: Son of man, these men have set up idols in their hearts and put wicked stumbling blocks before their faces. Should I let them inquire of me at all? 4 Therefore speak to them and tell them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: When any of the Israelites set up idols in their hearts and put a wicked stumbling block before their faces and then go to a prophet, I the Lord will answer them myself in keeping with their great idolatry. 5 I will do this to recapture the hearts of the people of Israel, who have all deserted me for their idols.’
Ezekiel 14:1-5

Consider this, our president is the one ordained for this land for this time. Consider it a just reward for who we are in private; swindlers, liars, fornicators, thieves, conmen… everything you hate about this government is the image of yourself and your just reward is here now. Also consider Nebuchadnezzar, who was raised in power and stature precisely to take what was left of Israel into captivity. Very much like we are now being led into captivity. Praise God because even now, while we mourn and groan, His hard hand seeks to crush our idolatry out of us and leave a pure and righteous remnant through whom the Lord will affect the earth in its darkest days of which we are just at the beginning.

Shut up church, sit in your shame until your heart is moved to repentance.
