“Every knee shall bow … and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord …” (Philippians 2:10-11).
A great “wind of revival” is blowing in Togo! In the country’s central area, people are experiencing God’s mighty power through a ministry of evangelism and prayer. The “wind of revival” blows through the area, from Lembre to Katchalikadji and the neighboring villages. The FMC in Limbre is an older and small church, but it is growing. Numbers have increased four times. Services can no longer be held in the church building, and the people are now joyfully worshiping outside, under nearby trees.
The church is also expanding. A second church building is about to be built in Fazao, with the local chief donating the land. The gospel is being preached, and the power of God is manifested. It’s like living in the early church times described in the book of Acts. God is touching hearts and lives. There are testimonies of healing, deliverance and conversion. Muslims and people of all ages are surrendering to Jesus.
Two Muslim women received healing; one suffered in her hip, and the other had a swollen foot. They received no solution at the hospital, but when one of the leaders in Limbre prayed for them, they were both healed and accepted Jesus.
Another man, Salifou, heard what the Lord was doing in his village. He brought his wife and child to visit the church prayer service. His wife had continual pain in her thigh, and Salifou often suffered motorcycle accidents. During the prayer service, his daughter confessed she was involved in spiritism, and this was the cause of her father’s accidents and her mother’s sickness. All gave their lives to Christ. Now, the mother is well and able to work again. Salifou, a Muslim, says, “I am ready to follow Jesus because I have never seen a powerful God like the Christian God.”
In three weeks, we baptized 42 new converts. The revival is bringing new life and zeal to our churches. Everyone gives testimony with joy to the power of God.
“The seventy-two returned with joy and said, ‘Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name’” (Luke 10:17, NLT).
To God be the Glory! Join us in praying the fire will continue to burn in us as we pray for at least 25 new church plants in Togo in 2025.
