MPHAMVU! Claiming God's Power!
As you may have seen on our Facebook page, this week has come with BIG revelations for our school breakfasts.
Since we began our school 7 years ago, we have received our breakfast porridge through our District Social Welfare office (via Save the Children or most recently, Feed the Children) regretfully, these organizations have pulled their support and will no longer provide porridge through our district. We are rushing to check prices on corn, peanuts and soybeans to make a nutritious porridge for the children.
We will need to change our food budget, so please pray for the kids' daily bread. We KNOW God will provide.
The Chichewa word for power is mphamvu. If you have been to Malawi you have undoubtedly heard this word. Malawians rely on the Lord in a way that those of us who have never had to worry about our daily bread are unable to comprehend.
The POWER of the Lord is evident because the level of their surrender is deep!
In Malawian prayer, everyone joins together and prays simultaneously. Prayer is reverent and surrendered to the Lord but simultaneously BOLD and strong! Voices lift with strength to God calling on His power and standing confidently before the Lord.
Will you stand confidently with us today? We come with great expectation and thrill to see how God will provide for our children!
Take time to boldly pray and stop and listen. How is God asking you to take action?

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
