Precious and Beloved Co-worker,
Praise the LORD!
Praise the LORD!!
Praise the LORD!!!
“Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His Holy Name. Praise the Lord, O my soul and forget not all his
benefits – who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you
with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.” Psalm 103:1–6
God has been good and merciful to each of us as individuals, to our families, and to us as a community of His people! He
has blessed the work of our hands and His work in our hands. We are close to 5.5 million believers in our community, in
140 nations, as at the 31st of August 2023, in all the six continents.
Our leaders have grown in ministry, harmony and team spirit. Many miracles of healing, deliverance and mighty
provisions have become common occurrences, while prayer, fasting, praise, teaching the Word, preaching and
publishing the gospel have continued to advance!!! Structures, materials and funds have been provided generously in
the work. Our God has been our Shepherd and we have not been in need. Allowances to the workers-national
missionaries and international missionaries have been fully paid. God is faithful and a very Present Help in all our
needs and the needs of His work in our hands.
He has freed us from want so that we may be even more focused and consecrated to His work and His kingdom!! We
must pursue and seek God with all our hearts and might. We must pursue and accomplish God’s goal entrusted to us
through His servant Zach FOMUM, with all our hearts and might and relentlessly.
Our greatest need in order to move ahead and make the progress we must in accomplishing our goal now (which is to
urgently give to our Lord Jesus one million house churches of between 50 to 100 members each in 150 nations which
are led and pastored by one million disciple makers who are obeying the Bertoua prophecy), is the rapid emergence of
leaders who carry this responsibility.
Matthew 9:37–38
“Then he said to his disciples, the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore,
to send out workers into his harvest field.”
All over the Scriptures, leaders emerge rapidly and in large numbers when they are filled and anointed with the Holy
Spirit who distributes to them spiritual gifts, spiritual ministries and appointments with which they can serve God and
minister to men.
Moses realised his insufficiency for the work of leadership and God gave him the gift of miraculous powers to deliver
Israel, as He also gave Solomon wisdom, wealth and authority to lead Israel at Solomon’s request.
Daniel, David, King Saul, the Judges, were all filled with the Spirit and emerged as leaders with the spiritual gifts that God the
Holy Spirit gave to each one.
The Lord Jesus gave the Apostles spiritual gifts and ministries to serve and to spread the gospel. All three Pentecosts in the Acts
of the Apostles resulted in the emergence of spiritual leaders who carried forward God’s work, and the gospel spread. Churches
were planted and led by common brethren filled with the Holy Spirit and the gifts and ministries received from the Holy Spirit.
1 Peter 4:7–11.
“The end of all things is near. Therefore, be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray. Above all, love each
other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each
one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.
If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the
strength God provides, so that in all things, God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the
power for ever and ever. Amen.”
From 16 October 2023 to 24 November 2023, for 40 days, we will fast, each one according to their ability and pray each night
with others at the Headquarters, in the localities and in the nations where we are represented, according to our different
capacities. This will be to prepare our hearts and community and to ask God for a large army of leaders who are filled with the
Holy Spirit, and who are given distinct spiritual gifts and spiritual ministries for the urgent accomplishment of our phase 3 goal,
and the ministry goal as a whole.
At Headquarters, we will fast for 40 days, praying each night desperately, such that we shall pray for 1000 hours during the 40
days in teams. Please call the saints with you to fast and organise them to pray with you so that God should give us, as a
community, a Pentecost accompanied with the abundant distribution of spiritual gifts and spiritual ministries that will all be
channelled towards the accomplishment of our goal for the exclusive glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Join us to fast and to pray that:
1. All the present leaders of our ministry would, like one person, seek a collective Pentecost for their people that will grant
other leaders to emerge.
2. All the saints would prepare their hearts, churches and communities by repentance from all known sins and uprooting of all
idols and manifestations of the self, that can prevent or limit the Pentecost we will experience.
3. All the leaders would organise Pentecost at different levels for the saints and the churches, to ask, to receive, to be filled, to
be full, to be possessed, to be anointed, to be endued with the Holy Spirit and to receive distinct gifts and ministries for
service and for the accomplishment of the goal.
4. All who fast, pray and ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit would believe God their Father who wants to give each of His
children the Holy Spirit.
5. All the spiritual gifts and spiritual ministries that the Holy Spirit will distribute to us will be received with joy, developed and
used with discipline to edify the saints and accomplish our goal.
6. An army of spiritual leaders with distinct spiritual gifts and ministries would emerge urgently in our work and advance our
goal with holiness and purity.
7. The spiritual gifts and ministries received would not destroy those who are given the gifts but will all be used with humility
and boldness to advance our one goal.
8. You personally would experience Pentecost and receive a distinct spiritual gift, ministry gift or an enlargement of what you
have already received for the advancement of our goal.
9. Our leaders would not resist, quench or oppose the spiritual gifts, ministries and emerging leaders that the Holy Spirit will
raise and give to us for the goal.
10. That the leaders who emerge with the gifts and the ministries of the Holy Spirit will not be disorderly and abuse their gifts
but discipline themselves to be under authority and use the gifts to advance the goal for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ
exclusively.
11. Etc.
We are coming to a critical turning point as God will do hitherto unheard of and unparalleled things to accomplish the goal. Let us
watch and be sober and alert against our enemy (the devil) and the flesh.
The Lord reigns and we are reigning with Him.
Your brother in the Lord and for our goal.
Theodore Andoseh.
