Re-defining Afrika
GOD’S BEST KEPT SECRET – REVEALED
Afrika, a land of many beauties, graces and blessings. A land whose destiny has been fought since only God knows when. A land with so much to offer as concerns the healing, the restoration and the rebirth of the earth. Afrika, whose bad choices and decisions have created many negative narratives, but whose time has now come to be revealed as the true virgin womb of God, out of which must come forth the sons of God, by whose lives creation will be set free from futility. You are indeed blessed, Oh Afrika, the womb of God.
The Third World Narrative
Personally, I am tired of the never ending blame games that Afrikans throw at the colonialists who plunder the land of Afrika by their divide and conquer strategy. Such unnecessary blame has never produced anything good, and never will. In fact, the blame game narrative has clearly become an excuse that the people of Afrika and various leaders in the different zones of Afrika use to cover up for their unfaithfulness to that which God has given to each nation in Afrika to tend and keep. It’s time to face the reality of another day for Afrika. I do not believe that the way forward is going backward. No. The way forward is simply going forward. Yes the past has a lot to teach about how we missed it as Afrikans, but it doesn’t necessarily have the answers for how we will correct it. It is a terrible disservice for a man or men, whoever they were, to wake up on a particular day and create an economic and political divide among the nations calling one a first world nation and the other Third World Nation. How dare a set of men put such a horrible tag on a people whose pain they have never felt and whose God-given ideals and purposes they never cared to ask about, or understand? Really? Who is speaking foolishness about Afrika, when God says something different?
*Note this: Afrika is not a Third World continent, not at all. She is a Third Day reality continent and her time is now. The power of life and death is in the tongue, so I speak life and newness to Afrika and so shall it be.
The Third Day Reality
There is a Third Day revelation that various strands of scripture allude to and whose reality is found in a people whose background seems enshrined in some form of foundational suffering, and who by such suffering, the glory promised of old, will also manifest. The Third Day reality speaks of the rising and birthing of that which has hitherto been dead and buried. Of Jesus, He rose on the Third Day. Of the people of God, who God will bring to dwell in His presence on the Third Day. (See Hosea 6:2) For he whose back carried, by prophecy, the suffering of Christ by the way of the Cross, shall by the reason of that same suffering of the Cross, wear the Crown that comes as glory in the place of death. See it this way, the life and time of Jesus in itself is a prophecy still unfolding as a mystery on the earth. Scripture makes it clear that a man called Simon of Cyrene, carried the Cross of Jesus for Him. Cyrene is a place in Libya, and by that, Simon of Cyrene, was an Afrikan. He carried the dark Cross of the suffering of Christ on his back. Jesus said if I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto myself. What does that mean? It means, the instrument of Christ’s lifting was the Cross and the carrier of the Cross was an Afrikan. Meaning that if the Cross carried by an Afrikan produced a lifting up for Christ, His drawing of all men to Himself will also be by the lives of the Afrikans whose backs carried this Cross. This is one beautiful destiny that Afrika has with God that must manifest in this age of the Third Day.
To give more strength to this reality of Afrika’s Third Day, see what Revelation 11 says, “And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” What does this mean in reality? It simply means that even if the Lord Jesus was killed physically in Jerusalem, He was spiritually killed in Afrika, as depicted by the Passover lamb that God commanded Moses to command the people to kill prior to leaving Egypt. It simply means that the back that carried the Cross of Christ was an Afrikan. The place where He was killed was in Afrika and by that same pattern, where He rose and will also manifest from after the Third Day will also be Afrika. Talk about the continent whose destiny was graciously tied to the living Christ and His Third Day resurrection. This should paint an accurate picture of why Afrika has suffered for so long.
Hear me Afrikans and the land of Afrika, your suffering is not in vain and neither will the Blood of the Lamb of God, shed in you, be in vain. For the Kingdom of the Eternal King will rise from the very heart of this land.
Out of Egypt
It is spoken of Christ by God that out of Egypt God called His Son. This doesn’t just speak of Christ alone, but in eternal sense, out of Egypt (Afrika), God will call forth His sons and daughters. For they whose lives will deliver creation from futility are here and will surely arise. See Romans 8:23, Psalm 68:31
The Return of the Womb
Some time in late 2014, the Lord had me go to a place called Badagry in Lagos, Nigeria. It was a place called: The point of no return; which is a monument that marked the last place Afrikan slaves were taken through before being shipped off into unknown lands. I got to the place and the Lord asked me to change the name of that place and call it: The point of the return. I made a declaration and changed the name as commanded. He further asked me to command and declare the return of all that has been stolen from Afrika through slavery and exploitation. I made all these declarations in the hope that some day, God would keep His promise. I really wasn’t too surprised to hear that the AU declared 2019 as the Year of the Return, nor was I also surprised that Ghana, as a nation, took it further to call for the return of Afrikan descendants in the Diaspora and that now Europe is planning reparations for the slavery that Afrika went through.
All these new developments are amazing and noble in themselves, but the true return that is most critical for the Third Day Afrika is to be the land where God is fully glorified and where, by that glory, He will draw all men to Himself. God is bent on doing this. The seed of the glory of God had been planted in this continent by her due suffering and now this womb must give birth to that which she is pregnant with.
Afrika, the ancient and the modern
Afrika is a gun (the modern) and much more a shofar (the ancient) in the hand of God. God is using and will more use Nigeria (the trigger of spiritual reformation), Kenya (Land of manifestation) and South Africa (the land of the sound), to express Afrika as His gun. But the most important is Afrika as a Shofar (The ancient) in the hand of God. God will blow through the heart of Afrika as His Shofar and healing, restoration and rebirth of life will spread through the nations of the earth. For the sound of God made the earth in the beginning and his sound will make it again in our day.
So let Afrikans and the world hear this. Afrika and you as an Afrikan are not wastelands of poverty, malnourishment, hopelessness or the various tags we have been branded as. Neither is Afrika a dumping ground for things that are worthless in foreign lands. Afrika is the mouthpiece of God in this age and God will make another big bang through her. What we become is our choice ad decision to make. We must choose to be redefined by the destiny and purpose which God ordained for us from before time and not by how misinformed men think us to be.
Afrika…Redefined, the time is now.
