Murderer from Mozambique

Monday afternoon, we all got together ready to go out and do what God tells us. After praying together, one person felt that we should speak to people in the streets, whilst someone else thought of KFC (After a few laughs and jokes about this person being hungry) we went to the streets near KFC. The 4 of us split up and all went different ways looking for people to talk to. One of us headed off a bit further and because they saw 2 people alone in the dark shadows up the street and felt a conviction to go. When they overcame the fear and trusted God for protection, they boldly head off to these guys.

On the people got nervous and stepped away into the darkness, whilst the other man (very big guy) stayed seated. This big guy was from Mozambique and after being challenged about his life, where he stands according to the God’s law, he shared the story that he had been in and out of jail twice already for murder. After about 25 minutes of sharing the Gospel and what Jesus Christ came to do. This big man was humbled by the message and in a soft cracking voice and tear filled eyes he called out to Jesus and asked that Jesus would forgive him for the lives that he took and that Jesus would help him through this tough time in his life.

It is simply awesome to see how the hardest of hearts can be humbled by God and how all of us were also humbled by the amazing way in which God works.
