Yesterday we went and prayed in Kabrousse. Since 2004 UCF has prayed continually for the work in Kabrousse. A church was just beginning there in 2004, since then the pastor died and the work has struggled to continue. Kabrousse is a central location among the Jola for fetish worship. People love to go to Kabrousse and dance on the fetish. We in turn love to dance on the fetish in Jesus' name that the work of the devil will be destroyed in that village.
I don't have a picture to say a thousand words for what happened yesterday so I will try to describe it. We began by visiting the house of Gibrail, a Christian from Kabrousse who goes to the church in Oussouye. His father is the head priest and has seven fetishes at his home and several in the forest. After greeting Mr. head priest and not finding Gibrail we guietly left and prayed over the fetish sites at his house on our way,
Dean had a vision in January of this year of us dancing and worshipping on a fetish in Kabrousse. Then last night I had a word about singing about the faithful vineyard, which comes from a chapter in Isaiah regarding the work in Kabrousse God had given us many years ago. So we brought the guitare in hopes of dancing and singing in Kabrousse.
We headed towards the center of the village where they have their fetish site with all the bones hanging from their sacrifices and their traditional drums for dancing for the sacrifices. We sat around a tree and Matt started to play the guitare. Then Dean began to dance and then dance more and more, spinning and things began to move in the spirit. Like a whirlwind was being created expelling the works of the enemy that enslave everyone in Kabrousse. Then one child entered in with Dean and decided to dance as well. This began the most amazing thing, all the children began to dance with Dean as we sang about the love of Christ for the nations, right in the middle of this circle for worshipping demons. Then Erin asked if she could play the drums and the man sitting watching us said it was not a problem. So she began to play the drums created for worshipping the devil and she played them for Jesus and she played and played and we all worshipped and danced. Ishmael was with us and Ishmael danced on the fetish for Jesus!
I started to dance with the children when someone asked me what all this was about. Her name was Mary and she spoke English. I explained to her what we were doing and she said she knew about Jesus so I was able to pray with her to know Christ.
Later we gathered the children and we were bechoned over to a man who's legs were shriveled in his wheel chair and explained Christ to them. Felix, the man with the shriveled legs received Christ and asked that someone would return and explain these things to him further.
This was all a fulfillment of prophesy and a spiritual work of taking back what is the Lord's. God continues to amaze me in so many ways!
