How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Isaiah 52:7
A troop of WWMF soldiers in the army of the Lord descended on Kato in Paphos with one Mission in mind; to tell as many as possible, about the good news of Jesus Christ that would go out in word and song through a gospel concert. This would be held in the harbour later that evening.
Some of the group had never been to Cyprus before, but all were resolute in their mission to ensure that all those they came into contact with had an opportunity to hear the Good News of the Gospel. They left no stone unturned. A grandmother pushed her granddaughter in her buggy while distributing leaflets, such was their determination to let nothing stand in their way. The WWMF group fully embraced the word the Lord had impressed on Pastor Dennis at the beginning of the year to build Him an army. As they stepped out in faith the Holy Spirit did the rest.
People gathered an hour or more prior to the start of the concert. Tourists, together with local people filled the seating areas and the hum of excited chatter filled the air.
As Sincere Praise opened with a jubilant song of praise…”High and lifted up in all the earth is who you are,” Jesus was indeed lifted up. People stood and begun clapping their hands in time to the music.
A blind man who was seated on the front row was moved to tears and told one of the group, as she helped him out at the end, that he didn’t want to leave.
There was a hush as Rev Taylor shared a message of hope. In a world where we see chaos all around us people need the hope that is found in Jesus.
Pastor Dennis gave a Holy Spirit led invitation for people to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour . We praise God for the timely response.
People were reluctant to leave, there were cries for more, some wanted to share what they had experienced. One lady said she cancelled a dinner engagement to attend. She was so overwhelmed by what she experienced that she recorded the event on video and sent it out to people she knew in different countries around the world. She expressed that she had never experienced anything like it.
Another man and his family wanted to know more about following Jesus. He was put in contact with a local church and sent a link to a recent sermon by Rev Taylor titled: What must I do to be saved.
Thank you, Jesus! Mission accomplished!
