It was a nostalgic experience for me returning to my home town after an absence of 32 years. Our host was Ps Matthew Samuel, the senior minister of Ebenezer Ministries, an established ministry that was founded over 50 years ago. Ps Matthew took over from my dear friend, the late Ps Andrew. Seeing some of the townspeople after such a long time was in many ways a journey back into time.
It was so easy to minister to them because they are aware of my family roots in the priesthood.Talking about the present day temple was easy because the old temple still stands in its original place, but now run down and unkempt, its surrounds overgrown with tall grass. I was filled with sadness as I remembered the days of my youth, standing with the villagers in a long line with my mother, holding on to our evening sacrifices. The sounds of the chantings and rituals of the old temple all started to come back as I recalled the devotion of my parents and my siblings.
Now here we are… the present day corporate temple that is ruled by One greater than the temple itself, the Lord Jesus Christ. Behold all things are new! The town celebrated the grace of God upon my life and we are committed to working with this ministry to help bring great definition and clarity to the “hidden wisdom” that is presently being released in this season.
