African God’s Generals
24.350 CFA
This work is focused to be a spiritual strength to as many that will be ready for the use of the Master. It will show you that your status and qualification determine nothing in the presence of God, even the smallest of mankind, seemingly insignificant person can as well be used by God. It is neither by personalities nor what we are and possess that God is looking at in us, but what He can bring out from us.
In African God’s Generals, the author reveals the glory of God in the lives of fourteen (14) powerful indigenous ministers God used to ignite the fires of revivals and set the path of Christianity in Africa that we are striding today.
This book reveals how they were born, lived their lives, along with their teachings, their spiritual discoveries, their faith and believe, and many other brilliant things that will set your heart on fire for God. You’ll also find crucial life applications from these generals: how they vigorously demonstrated the power of the Holy Ghost which was upon their lives.
