Estelle praying for Jordan and sensed prophetic word
lots of divine encounters are coming
lots of dreams and visions are coming
God interrupting my days and nights to drop what is in His heart...
Sensing that Jordan's heart is so open to God, so precious to God, and you give yourself whole heartedly...
because of that given you such as spirit of excellence, and it will only increase...
the excellence, the supernatural way of handling things... how did you do that? how did you achieve that?
Something that will baffle many
intensity will keep rising and rising...
a LOT of God encounters...
I think I heard the Holy Spirit say -
There is a lot of intensity coming your way, people trusting you with leadership, resources...
a lot of people will just hand over lots of very sensitive mega things for you to take care of...
because of your heart, your faithfulness...
It is a great time on the earth, but also a sifting time... those who will genuinely serve and be willing to pay a high price... and he can then trust them with what He has for all creation... duties... resources... sifting time...
when the children of God were on the way to promised land...
so many disapproved...
As much as God is merciful... there is also the sifting and the testing
we are supposed to walk by faith and not by sight...to be able to say to God
I believe and trust in you more than what I see...
I am here to serve, give me strength...
Pokot is in dire need...
no matter how much you feel, you cry...
you can only become realistic...
resources need to be made available, work needs to be made available...
Resources - leading to long term sustainability and development...
starts with people giving what they have
time
physical work
brain work
money

Formal school is like a rescue center that helps girls escape...
little girls often married off from age 9 and 10...
Formal school is like rescue center...
Need for health clinic - no access to basic medical to give birth... often losing babies or mothers...
Government not able to meet the needs becasue it is huge... must arise from the people...
Pokot gave us about 10 acres of land...

Water for them and animals...
carry water from Nairobi even for drinking
going kilometers for brown / unclean water...
See community leap
Children as early as 6

shortest time grazing cows is 3 months... eating from the land, or draining blood from cows neck to drink...
The cup of porrige the children take - is for half of the children the only meal of the day
so dry - haven't seen rain for last 3 rains...
Almost on border of Pokot and Samburu...
so many single parents - gone and never come back...
Change the culture by bringing in other activities...
like agriculture
almost any crop will grow...
You hear from them they really need help
lies from political class that only come during he campaign season
how they need healthcare
clean water
education for their children
children not supposed to go beyond 3.5 KM to look for education...
nearest school is 15 KM, then 30 KM away -
no transfporation there...
no cars...
the expectation has been put on the wrong place from political class that comes to campaign then disappear...
One queston they ask - Why do you come?
because you are our brothers and sisters
we come to bring Love and share the little we have...
elders of community in Amaya - after many years - asked to sit down and ask why - doesn't seem like you are looking for anything from here...
Huge chunks of their land have been taken away by conservancies...
so they are bitter... taken kilometers of land with no one asking...
we would like to donate 10 acres... do you think you have the strength to put up a little school...
children started under tree...
when they see love, continuity, bonfires to keep away hyenas at night...
