Martin de Jager: Zituta Ministries testimonies update:

The weekend of the 29th of July we went to Komatipoort and met up with our friends from Cape Town where they completed their prayer journey around the coast line of South Africa. We prayed at the border but were overwelmed with a bad atmosphere between the two nations (SA and Mozambique). We prayed and then we walked to the shops at the border gate. Now if i say shops, i mean it looks like wooden structures covered with black plastic bags. They sell mostly food there for people crossing the border. It almost looked like they had a community running there. It looked evil and i wanted to walk between them to get a feel for the place, perhaps destroy some witchcraft while we are at it! As we walked i got pulled into one of these "shops" by Holy Spirit. There was an elder lady seated reading Bible and listening to Christian music. I was very pleasantly surprised!! We talked with her, encouraged her and rejoyced together as the Lord had Word for her. After we blessed her in prayer we moved on. Another lady a few shops on called us as we walked past her shop. Can i just say that these people love to braai (bbq for all you non africans!)! The lady asked us what we were up to and our conversation quickly led to Jesus. She also requested prayer. On our walk back later she donated some bread from her shop to us just to honor us! After praying for these two ladies the atmosphere changed tangibly for the good. We could feel Gods Presence settling in. Then at the final shop 2 ladies also stopped us and were curious about our presence there. It is not a place many white people walk! Again Jesus was the topic very soon in our conversation! As we mentioned the word prayer they jumped up and we had a prayer line of maybe 10 people or more! All desperate to be loved and touched by God! We prayed and prophesied over all of them! The atmosphere changed completely as the Kingdom of Heaven touched the people and the earth and all of us were left with ubundance of joy! On our way back we again got stopped at the 1st shop to pray for the lady's friends and family she called to wait for us when we pass by again.

The Monday we went to Clau Clau near White River, Mpumulanga, to our brother France's church. There they had a mini conference planned for us. We ministered 3 services that day making prophetic declarations over the area, we preached the Gospel and two young men commited their life to Christ. We also prayed for many people and enjoyed fellowship with the very friendly people of Clau Clau. After one visit they are family to me! The love was very tangible between everyone. Where there is unity, God demands a blessing! Relationships and love are so fundamental to the work of the ministry. It is the very heart beat of ministry! That evening some one blessed us with 4/5 star accomodation in Nelspruit close by. It was very luxurious and very overwelming that God blessed us like this! Thank You Jesus! In the morning we had a small gathering to encourage the leaders and we greeted our new friends. In our very short visit God really showed up Mightely for His people!!

We had a very Powerful time with brother David Hogan in Nelspruit the following weekend. Gods Power is the Presence and a large conference room filled with radial Jesus lovers guarenteed a very special time together! We prayed with a lady the saturday that couldnt put her legs flat against eachother while sleeping for 46 years. For 46 years she lived in pain as her legs also weren't straight and God healed her completly!!!

This weekend radically changed me as i almost cant stop praying! I want to pray all day long where as before only part of the day. I do not want to listen to worship music that much any more but rather put on the audio Bible as i suddenly received a hunger, or more an extreme desperateness for God. It is also so special and such a huge joy to see brother David Hogan and his team again. I've come to not only respect them as Powerfull men and women of God, but to love them as family. Something changed in their lives as well during the last two years as the Power of God is flowing more than in the past. I am renewed after a week with them.

17 to 21 August we went to Durban to Attend the school of Power and Love presented by Tom Ruotolo and Todd White. They released something in the spirit that cannot be described. Holy Spirit was very tangible and Powerful! We went into the streets twice a day to pray for people. Hundreds of us! The testimony ques went on and on and on the whole time! Many got born again, healed and delivered. Many muslims and even people that were about to commit suicide got touched by Holy Spirit as Jesus turned their lives around! We received a fresh fire baptism from God and i believe we received a tool/blueprint on how to change our nation/the nations for the good. The whole message is the message of the Kingdom and our identity in Christ. It was amazing and very life changing! We were able to bless thousands of people in the Durban area during the 3 days. I also got to baptise a good pastor friend of mine. The water was freezing when we entered the pool but as soon as we started to pray the water heated up and we felt no cold what so ever! The Lord also transformed him in a very Powerful way!

26 to 28 August we have the annual Potato Foundation youth camp. This is always a highlight as God does many miracles in the lives of not only these youngsters but also us volunteers get spoiled by God. The last two years the Lord came down on us in the form of a cloud and rested in our midsts!

The first week in September is the national conference in Zambia for Harvest for Christ Ministries. 31 August to 6 September.This is a very large part of our work and will meet all the other leaders and people of the ministry there. They want to introduce us to all the people there. We will minister to thousands of people and we trust God for something very special for this conference. I also feel the Lord will give us strategy for the future.
