If conservatives had behaved the same under President Obama they would have been arrested and their protests shut down immediately.

1 OUT OF AFRICA COMPLETE VICTORY IN CHRIST October 2017 Newsletter of Shekinah/ Kalibu Ministries Issue 275 Lift High The Standard Of The Lord Beloved Partners & Friends, I am horrified at the venom and hatred poured out towards the President of USA by the media and the liberal humanists. Nowhere in Africa have I seen such viciousness and it is simply unrelenting. This is anarchy. If conservatives had behaved the same under President Obama they would have been arrested and their protests shut down immediately. The problem is the same as that which faced the Roman Empire when it started to decline and it is nothing but mob rule fueled by the ruling elite. God's Word is abundantly clear. "Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you." Not for a long time have the twenty plus million Christian voters turned out en masse to vote for a candidate and swung the entire outcome of an election. If only the Church would stand together, it would win together. When the children of Israel rejoiced as one on the banks of the Red Sea with an exuberance never seen before or since something significant happened. As they sang the song of Moses so that it became high praise or the song of the Lamb all the principalities of darkness in the heavens fled to Canaan. The high praises of God called a new song, caused a highway to be opened in the spirit realm and therefore also in the natural. Israel was ten days hard march to Canaan. But, the very next day with their back biting, criticism and discord because of the bitter waters at Mara, Israel lost the ascendancy and ended up forty years in the wilderness. Nothing has changed. The church in the wilderness is a clear picture of the true church. Christians become divided over the most pathetic issues and compromise is the testimony of most believers when it comes to money and entertainment. I know what would happen in Malawi if soccer players refused to stand for the national anthem. They would all be instantly arrested and imprisoned and the game cancelled.

2 Out of Africa October 2017 Page 2 Lift High The Standard Of The Lord (Cont.) The disgusting behaviour of NFL players continues on because the appetite for the game even by believers far outweighs the crime and money involved. Prostitutes exist because there are men who desire them. If spectators refused to attend the games and the money started drying up especially for those morons who refuse to respect their flag but are willing to take the ridiculous pay, then things would quickly change and the loud mouths silenced. Where are all the psychophants from Hollywood who promised to leave America should Trump have won? They are still cavorting around earning their ridiculous salaries because the people love it so. Like never before, it is time to lift high the standard of the Lord. Disrespect for Christ and disregard for law and order, for leadership and even the constitution shows just what morons the rich elite actually are. It is time for the hard working, honest tax-paying citizens to stand up as one and fight back. It is time for the church to stand up as one and fight back. It is time for the church to return to the Book of Acts and instead of compromising to please the world in the hope of winning the world, rather to be set on fire by the Holy Spirit. "And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." He was the LORD who added to the church DAILY, not man's initiative or compromise. And, the Lord added because the church was IN ORDER with the Word. We have lost the power to pray for people and see them delivered. Many pastors do not even believe in demons or the impact they have in the lives of people. We would rather resort to psychology. Fewer and fewer pastors are believing in Divine healing but would rather resort to the medical profession. There is little difference between the world and the Church indicating how much we have compromised for personal satisfaction and gain. We have opted for entertainment rather than the solid FOUNDATION of the Book of Acts where they continued STEADFASTLY in the apostles doctrine, in pray, in breaking of bread and in spiritual fellowship. Now, I cannot change old wineskins but I can allow the Holy Spirit into my life so that He changes this wineskin. I cannot change morons from kneeling for the anthem but I can boycott the game and prevent those same morons from getting my hard-earned money. I cannot make another believer do as I do, but I can be so filled with Holy FIRE that my life is a walking epistle of power that will make people notice. Where do you stand?

I have gotten to know Him more intimately through the sisters and brothers in faith and through His Holy Word. The Lord has shown me many new things about world and about Him and His perfect plan.

3 Out of Africa October 2017 Page 3 Finland Testimony- From Glory To Glory I want to tell you, what God has and is continually doing in my life. The Lord has been very gracious and loving to me, as that is His nature. He has revived me, cleansed me, set me free and changed me to be more after HIs nature. I have gotten to know Him more intimately through the sisters and brothers in faith and through His Holy Word. The Lord has shown me many new things about world and about Him and His perfect plan. I can t wait to see what He has purposed for my life! God is speaking to me through His Word every day, opening things through the blessed Holy Spirit. Every time I take the Bible in my hand and read it, I get new excitement and spiritual food. It is also great to see, how the Lord loves everybody and wants to give to everyone, what He has already given to his own people. And He loves us so much, that He gives us a chance to choose, if we want to follow Jesus or stay in the bondage of this world that belongs to Satan. He wants to lead all His own to perfect truth, but few people understand to ask that of Him. In the Out of Africa meetings the Lord often touches me inside, and I know in my spirit that the knowledge and teaching comes from Him, and not from any person. The Lord commands us to test all the teachings we receive, and I know that this teaching comes from God. It is also great to come together as a congregation, and meet the sisters and brothers in faith! When I attend the meetings, it feels as if I would have come home and that the congregation is my family. During the praise and worship I notice how we are united in an unfathomable way! We have same mind, the mind of Christ! I need to pray that Lord would give his perfect truth to the whole Body of Christ, so that we could be an even mightier army of the Lord, that grows in the Spirit to know our Lord more and more intimately. Janette C. Finland USA MINISTRY The October ministry trip of Pastor Howard is now coming to a close.

4 FROM THE KALIBU ELDERLY PROJECT LEADER KALIBU ELDERLY CLINIC UPDATE Out of Africa - October Page 4 Years ago Shekinah Ministries had a vision, a vision of service and undying love towards the elderly. Today that vision still burns, and is burning brighter than ever. It is with great joy in my heart, that I can say, that the Nchenchere clinic has been a great platform in attaining this vision. Every day the clinic provides health care services including, physiotherapy and voluntary counseling and Testing (VCT) to people that come in from different areas. This is a great testimony of healing and comfort to many elderly people, as they realize that there is someone to help them without asking for anything in return, especially due to the lack of quality hospitals in the village, and the unbearable walking distance to the few hospitals that are available. To go the extra mile, the clinic has also employed a full time doctor that is always there to attend to the elderly and prescribes medication to them without charge. This alone is a great testimony to them, considering their lack, and the high cost of medication in Malawi at the moment. This huge act of kindness and love has not only led to physical healing but also to great spiritual and emotional healing, from the wounds caused by the elderly's relatives and other village members who have discriminated and abandoned them because of their old age. Indeed the clinic has truly helped the elderly believe that, there is hope in a God that is rich in love and will care for them unconditionally. Linda M. Thank you to those who have sent your gifts to this program. There are lives saved through the medical treatments provided, many coming to faith in Christ, and housing built because of your generous support. A new physiotherapist was hired to join the team serving at our Kalibu Elderly clinic in Malawi. Mr Nyasa is a new graduate, who attended Malawi College of Medicine and did his practicals at our clinic. He decided then that he wanted to work permanently with us. Earlier this year he came on staff and is making amazing progress with the elderly who come for treatment. Elderly patients come weekly to receive free consultations, medicines and therapy. He teaches his patients how to use simple therapy at their village homes to help their conditions like arthritis, asthma and other ailments that plague them. They learn how to make hot compresses to apply to their swollen joints, small weights used to strengthen muscles to assist their mobility, and other helps. Mr Nyasa is currently treating 100 or more elderly patients per week and seeing good results. Kalibu Elderly Clinic continues to treat as many as 350 patients per week
