Africa-Press – Lesotho. On Saturday the 25th of November 2017, Lesotho will never be the same again. This is the day that a home-grown man of God, Apostle Simon Hlalele intends to do the impossible – yet it is possible – to fill up the giant Setsoto Stadium to its brims with multitudes as administers a full day crusade under the ‘Days of the Supernatural’ banner.
The day’s event will be free of charge. Most of the pastors or preachers who have used Sesotho Stadium in the past were coming from other countries or other parts of the world and it is almost unthinkable that a local church leader could achieve the same feat.
But Apostle Hlalele of Wind of Change Church, wants to achieve that feat. “In fact, there is so much anointing in me that I am inviting all Basotho and anyone who lives in this country to see for themselves how God can work miracles.
This country needs deliverance and we are praying for healing and miracles to take place on that day and forever more,” he says. Apart from praying and healing, he says, the day will be punctuated by praise and worship through some well-known local and international gospel musicians.
The numerous billboards scattered around Maseru talking about the day are proof enough to tell all that the day will be a major success. And putting up so much – in terms of publicity, hiring of the stadium and anything that goes with it – is no mean feat, but Hlalele says, “With God all things are possible.
” True, as it may sound, Hlalele cannot go it alone as this is a first by a Mosotho man of God to attempt such a mammoth task.
Businesses, individuals, corporations and other organisations that believe in this dream are therefore being called to chip in through whatever they can, so that change can happen in Lesotho.
“More often than not, we hear of crimes of murder, theft, rape and others that bedevil our society.
We hear of families breaking down and we hear of thousands of people suffering from poverty and sickness. But I tell them that God is about to change their story.
After this crusade, Lesotho will never be the same again,” he says. This manifestation came to pass last Sunday at the Wind of Change church service where Apostle Elias Lamani from South Africa, was guest preacher.
Apostle Lamani echoed the same sentiments that the feat that is to be carried out by a Lesotho-born and bred Man of God needed everyone’s support because “it is going to be for the good of the nation.
” In his message, Apostle Lamani highlighted three major areas of concern that would make the November a success.
He described the event as a “road that needs to be travelled and for that road to be properly articulated there’s a need for the three P’s that are namely, preacher, praying and paying.
”
“The first ‘P’ stands for the Preacher in the form of Apostle Hlalele that God has anointed for Basotho.
The second ‘P’ means that we must Pray for him and all others who are doing good work for Lesotho. For all this to happen, we must pay through our tithes and offerings for God’s work to continue.
There cannot be vision without money, therefore everything towards that including hiring of the stadium, billboards etc. , and all have to be paid for.
His victory is your victory; his failure is your failure,” he told the congregants. Apostle Lamani however, had some good news to all those who attended the service and all those who may want to come to the event on November 25.
“Your star is about to shine, your destiny is about to change,” he told the packed auditorium.
“But there is one little word that God is waiting for you to say. It doesn’t matter whether you have sinned four days before coming here or not, or even yesterday or this morning before coming to church.
Just one little ‘Yes’ can change your life and your destiny,” he said. By saying ‘Yes’ Apostle Lamani said, all sinners are admitting that Jesus is the Son of God and that their sins will be forgiven.
So powerful the message from the South African preacher was that he likened Jesus Christ as a ‘grave robber’ who can raise you from the dead (sin) just like Lazarus did as told in the Holy Bible.
“When Maria and Martha came to Jesus seeking help for their sick brother Lazarus who died, Jesus raised him from the dead as a ‘grave robber’ (John 11-12).
The miracle that happened to Lazarus is a shadow of what will happen to you if you believe in Jesus. “Some of you are crying about the past or what may have happened to you.
Do not cry over lost time, your days of suffering have come to an end,” he told the highly spiritual congregation. According to Apostle Lamani, Jesus is the ‘grave robber’ has come to give your life back.
The Man of God said the grave is just a ‘waiting room’ for all who thought they were dead from their sins or affliction. “A doctor or anyone else can tell you that you’re headed for the grave but Jesus thinks otherwise,” he said.
He also urged all and sundry to come to the ‘Days of the Supernatural’ miracle and healing crusade in November to see God’s power at work. He likened Sesotho Stadium on the day to a story told in John: 6 when Jesus fed 5 000 people from just two loaves of bread and five fish.
He said the multitudes that come on this day will be fed with the “Power and word of God. ” “In God’s Kingdom 2 plus 5 is not equal to 7, it is equal to multitudes. Therefore the multitudes who will turn to Christ on this day will be healed and fed,” said Lamani
In reference to the Wind of Change Church, Apostle Lamani sais at first he wondered how an congregation such as this one could choose such a name when others are promising ‘prosperity and richness’ after coming here.
He gave ‘Wind of Change’ as a ‘violent or forceful wind’ that can change one’s life and destiny. “In Acts 2:4 the Bible says ‘and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost (wind) and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit (wind) gave them utterance’.
This is what I believe this church is for, and for sure it is truly manifested and will be further manifested at Sesotho Stadium come November 25,” he said.
To add ice to the cake, Wind of Change praise and worship team were there to give a semblance of what to expect on the day through music and dance. If all goes to plan, it seems, Lesotho will never be the same again after the 25th of November 2017.
