Governing Authorities

Dear beloved:  Pics above, with Pygmies in Burundi;  Mitumba, second hand clothing market in Mumias

Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For their is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.  v2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment upon themselves. v3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authorities? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. v4 For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. 

Beloved, life goes on here in Kenya after a contentious but mostly peaceful election for President, Members of Parliament, and county offices.  The Lord gave me a detailed dream in October 2021 showing me the man He was going to raise up to be President; he is now the President Elect.  However, a challenge to the results of the Electoral Commission has been lodged by the opposition, so there will be a petition to the Supreme Court to settle the issue.  Keep praying for Kenya, that the final results will also be received peacefully.  Kenyans are ready to move on and just want to work and pay their school fees and get on with their lives. Even Jesus had to appear before the civil authorities at the time of His crucifixion; His fate was ultimately decided by a Governor Pontius Pilate. Pray for those in authority over you, that they will be a minister to you for good in these times of turmoil. It was Pilate who wrote a title on a board and posted it over Jesus on the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Pilate also proclaimed, "I am innocent of the blood of this Just Person".  Maybe he had revelation.  We invite you to partner with Gather the Outcasts as we preach Christ and Him crucified!  May God bless you as you pray.
