Zambia Report #2 - Sunday

Rev. Melvin Sanchez & Rev. Jerry Kalinsky share about Sunday's services in Zambia...
 
To God be the Glory!

Sunday morning was just great.  The church was packed and everyone in the building was full of joy and excitement.  The worship was powerful!  The people sang with strong, loud voices that filled the church like an orchestra.  All the choirs sang today, and right after Rev. Kalinsky greeted the people Bishop Misika turned the service over to me (Rev. Sanchez).

I preached a message on overcoming faith!  The more I preached, the more God began to move!  People were running and jumping, shouting and crying throughout the message.  Both the young and the old were dancing in the isles as the word of God was being brought forth.  The Holy Spirit was moving mightily!  Chains of discouragement and despair were being broken off of people’s lives!  The Spirit of the Lord brought equality and liberty and the children of God began to grab hold of the promises of God by faith!

People were being healed and some were falling out under the power of God!  Everywhere we looked the Holy Ghost was moving!  It was like a tidal wave of power in that building, and it moved everyone in the church!  God had brought a tremendous victory into His house today.

As the Holy Ghost continued to move, Rev. Kalinsky brought a prophesy about how God was going to move and how God sent His word to empower His people and if they grabbed a hold of it, God was going to move like never before!  After that prophesy, it was like a fresh wind it that building!  People were talking in tongues and walking the isles!  People were crying and hugging one another.  It was just tremendous!

Then, as the Spirit of God was moving, I said to the people, “I have got two words to tell the poverty, sickness and starvation that is trying to bury our families.  I have got two words to tell the discouragement of our hopes and dreams.  I have got two words to tell the enemy, who tries to steal, kill and destroy our faith, ministries and lives.  I got two words to tell the evil spirits of alcohol, drugs and cigarettes!  I got two words and they are: GET OUT!  You can no longer control our healings, you can no longer hold back our backsliding children, you can no longer hold up our finances!  The anointing has broken every yoke that has kept God’s people prisoner to a lie!  We command you to leave and in Jesus name we release healing, right now!  We release miracles, right now! We release whatever is needed to bring complete victory to the body of Christ right now!!!!!!”

When that word was spoken, it was like an atom bomb hit that building!  The cries and the shouts of the people blasted through the atmosphere and the church was on fire!  The power of God was moving!  People were everywhere, as the power of God moved on his people!  Even all the little children were jumping, crying and shouting! The church was on fire!

Then, as God was moving, Brother Abraham ran over to the piano and started playing some church revival music and it was all over!  People were at the altar, seeking God and getting prayer and being saturated by the Holy Ghost!  A young man named Gift, who is a cleaner at the hotel we are staying in, came this morning to church and got saved!  When he came back to the hotel, everyone could see a great change in him.  It was a great morning in God but the best was yet to come!

Sunday night

Sunday night’s service just flowed with Sunday morning.  It was like one long meeting.  Rev. Kalinsky preached on sojourning faith.  The people praised and worshipped God as he preached!  They really grabbed a hold of every word that came out of his mouth.  When the altar call was given, people filled the altar for prayer.  Teenagers were weeping and crying!  The power of God moved on our driver, Brother bright, and he could hardly stand as the presence of God moved on him.  Then Brother Roosevelt’s son was filled with the Holy Ghost and fell out under the power of God, speaking in tongues!  As God continued to move, Bishop Misika and the leaders of the church were praying for their members and God was ministering to lives!

After service, we went to get something to eat and the Lord led us to two young ladies that just needed to be encouraged.  After speaking with them, they both are coming out to the evangelistic night meeting this week.  When we got back to our hotel, a young lady named Dorcus asked if she could speak to me and our cook, Uncle George (that’s what everyone calls him), asked to speak to Rev. Kalinsky.  Well George told Rev. Kalinsky that ever since he testified to him the other night he has not been able to smoke or drink.  Rev. Kalinsky began to share with him how God was working on him and he needs to take that next step to get saved, and right there in the laundry room George gave his life to Jesus!

While that was going on, I was in the front with Dorcus and she was giving her life to Christ at the exact same time! Hallelujah!  Hallelujah! Hallelujah! It case you did not know it that was a shouting moment!

When all of us realized what happened, we were all just praising God together! And now Dorcus and Uncle George are preaching to us!  Dorcus said to us, “God has truly visited this place and everyone knows it and everyone feels it!”  All we say is, to God be the glory!

Thank you for your support and prayers,
Rev. Sanchez & Rev. Kalinsky
