Thank you Lord

Lord, I would like to thank you today for all the blessings you have bestowed upon me. I am very grateful for the gidt of life, for good health and achieving some of my plan objectives at home and in my business.

At home, we are grateful for your mercy in getting our central heating working again after several months of huddling in bed even when it was stil daytime in oredr to keep warm. You are very kind and you keep your promise to look after your folk.

You are are the overall lifetime Director of this company, Lord and I would like to brief you about progress and problems. I am pleased to report to you that I was able to secure and transport at least 20 chairs from the University of Greenwich, Facilities Management Office, for our new college premises at London Bridge on Thursday and signed the accommodation licence or year-long rent agreement with the property managers on Friday, 23rd Sept.

Meanwhile, our training at Lewisham was full to the brim with course participants proving that our move to Borough High Street from 1st October was a good decision.

However, we remain anxious about our business telephone which was cut in error by BT
who are now redirecting our callers to the new premises a week before we have moved in! Lord make them rectify the problem and save our business. On our part we have advised BT about the glitch and hope they will resolve it by the beginning of the week.

God you are very caring.

Personally, I beg you Father Almighty for protection from the evil one. I thank you for the dreams you have shown me of late in which I have emerged victorious against a bully who was harrassing me. Iam glad that I withstood not only that evil spirit but all those which have besieged me in real life too. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I will overcome all the hurdles in my way.

Through the holy blood of Jesus Christ, I command the Devil to leave me in peace!

Amen!.

Hoping for the best

Lord, it gives me great joy to address you after I have been feeling very low and tired. I look forward to the new week with hope and courage to overcome any obstacles in my way. It gives me hope that all will go well with your guidance. I am working hard to be organised and ready to resume our Dental Nursing lessons with the returning students and to commence the new academic year with the new intake on Thursday 14 Sept 2006.

God bless our plans so they can succeed. In the name of Jesus Christ.

Amen

Hymn 123 Nganga huru yave pedyo

Nganga huru yave pedyo,
Ane tsitsi ndiJesu;
Anoda kutifarisa
Inzwai izwi raJesu.

Zita rakanakisa
Rinotipa rufaro
Rumbo rwakanakisa
Jesu, Ishe Jesu.

Anobvuma shoko rake
Anozosunungurwa;
Agofamba zvakanaka
Aende kuna Jes.

Chorus

Utsvene huri kwaari,
Zvino ndotenda Jesu;
Ndinorida zita rake,
Zita raKristu Jesu.

Chorus

Kutya kwangu kwaparadzwa
Nezita rake Jesu;
Mwoyo wangu unofara
Kunzwa zita raJesu

Chorus

Kana tazosvika uko
Tichazova naJesu;
Tichakurumbidza zita
Zita raIshe Jesu.

Chorus

Amen!

Thank you for caring

Lord I thank you for caring for my health by enabling me get my prescription yesterday. First, after failing to order the repeat prescription by telephone I left the college office in Lewisham at 3.15 pm to catch a train at Lewisham DLR Station to Barnhurst in time to beat the closing time. On getting to the Northumberland Health Centre at 4.30 p.m. I learnt that there was only one doctor on duty and that I would need to return in an hour's time when the prescription would have been signed by the GP.

I got the prescription at the last minute after walking for fifteen minutes uphill from my house at Erith town centre to Northumberland Heath Health Centre because of a traffic jam in an effort to find the surgery still open at 5.30pm.

Not only did I get the prescription, but also got the money to buy the medicine in the second pharmacy at the Northumberland Heath Shopping Centre after the first one had run out of the third drug - Candesartan Cilexetil 8mg. The option was to go without it or to travel to Welling where there was a pharmacy open until 11 p.m. I was tired of walking and it was getting chilly.

Mwari makanaka. Zita renyu ngarikudzwe nekusingapere.
Amen

Thank you Lord for the new offices

Thank you Lord for blessing me with new business premises at London Bridge for which I have paid a deposit. Help me Lord to meet all the required costs of my business. From the scriptures I have learnt that I should have a divine dream. I think I already have one, my college. I have also learnt that I must prospect for opportunities and I am doing that right now, exploring new courses.

I know that you are kind and merciful. You have fought battles for me. You have helped me make a breakthrough. Our college will be at 64 Burough High Street in London Bridge from 1st October 2006, God willing. Let thy name be praised by all mankind.

Bless me Lord with your power to conquer the evil one. In the name of Jesus Christ, I command the evil one to leave me alone; I command the evil one to get off the way; I command the evil one not to dare take my sacred blessing from God Almighty, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen

Baba Takatarisira

Baba wedu vari kudenga
Baba waIshe wedu Jesu Kristu
Ndinokutendai netsitsi dzenyu dzamunondiitira
Ndinotenda nechipo chehupenyu nekurarama
Zita renyu ngari kudzwe pasi pose

Baba takatarisira kuti mutipe makomborero mamwe
Takatarisira ngoni dzenyu kuti tipiwe mamwe mavisa
Tinoziva kuti ndimi munopa ndimi munotora
Tamirira tsitsi dzenyu mangwanani ano
Tichikumbirira vadzidzi vedu vari kuda kuuya kuno
Varopafadzei nekubudirira Baba

Zviratidzo zvenyu zvatipa tariro yekubudirira
Asi tinoziva kuti uyo akaipa anotsvaga kutitsamwisa
Asi nezita raJesu Kristu tinotuka Satan tichiti:
'Satan rega kutitadzisa kubudirira;
'Satan ibva munzira dzangu
'Satan usatore zvipo zvangu
'Satan ndakukunda nekuti ndakufumura neropa raJesu Kristu Ishe wedu akaroverwa pamuchinjikwa akafa akavigwa, nezuva retatu akamuka akaenda kudenga uko agere kurudyi rwaBaba.'

Nezita raJesu ndinoti zvirongwa zvangu zvose ngazviropafadzwe neMweya Mutsvene
Zvirongwa zvangu zvekutama kuenda kuLondon Bridge muna October ndinozviisa mumaoko menyu Ishe Jesu Kristu

Bvisai mhiko dzevavengi vangu
Vanyadzisei nekuti vanoita mabasa erima
Ini ndinoda imi Ishe wedu ari kudenga
Mwari inzwaiwo muteuro wangu. Ishe Jesu Kristu ndinzwireiwo tsitsi.

Dzingati ngoni dzaIshe wedu, nokuwadzana koMweya Mutsvene, zvive nesu iye zvino kudzamara kuve kusingapere.
Amen.

The Lord is Watching Over Us

I take comfort in the knowledge that whatever problems I face, I will succeed

Whatever my enemies do, the Lord is watching over me.

I am proud of my belief and trust in God, his Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

I thank God for all my achievements; I also thank Him for protecting me from the evil one.

I humbly ask God today to bless our college's plans to move house to our new premises in London Bridge effective 1st October 2006.

May His name be praised by all nations on earth now and forever, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Lord have mercy, hear our prayers.

Amen.
