The
Taiwos' ministry in Zimbabwe
Kay
and Olu
Taiwo arrived in Zimbabwe
on August 18th 2007 after 32 hours in transit. They were
greeted by
Dr. Ephiel Mukamuri, and his team. Dr. Mukamuri is the founder and
overseer of
Logos-Rhema ministries, in Harare,
Zimbabwe.
The meetings
were held at the church’s headquarters at Warren Park, in Harare, bringing
together its network of
churches. Once
a
year, Logos-Rhema ministries organizes a national conference, Shekinah Glory. This year’s conference
had the theme: Year of Open Doors with
Speed! The meetings were open to the general public. On
Monday,
August the 20th, Kay and Olu opened their sessions with a gripping
message
titled, The Principles and Power of
Vision. The very attentive audience absorbed the clear insights as
they
learned ‘What Vision is, and what it is
not, How to obtain Vision, and How Vision leads to impact.’
Kay and Olu
emphasized the fact that, everybody is making impact: positive or
negative. And
positive impact is determined by vision. They further emphasized that
vision
sees the outcome. The visionary sees him or herself as a factor in the
fulfillment of the vision. Vision is not reactive. It is proactive.
On Tuesday
night, Olu shared a very powerful message, titled, You
were Born to Make Impact! Olu went on to define the word, ’impact,’ in his own words. According to
Olu, “impact is
made when you leave a
place or people, and there is sufficient evidence present, to show that
you
were there!” Olu emphasized that, each individual was
designed by
God to
make a difference, in his or her world. Later on, a participant
exclaimed,
“That was a refreshing word.” As
a
testimony to Olu’s definition of impact was a pastor who approached the
Taiwos.
He said he missed their visit in 2006, but had heard how powerful and
impacting
it was. On
Wednesday morning, Kay and Olu shared a tag team message, titled, ‘Excellence
is a Choice!’The Taiwos stressed that excellence
is excellence, whether it is
in the USA
or Africa. In other words, excellence
is not
defined by where you are, but by who you choose to become.
On Thursday
evening, Olu exhorted the believers with a timely message, ‘Faith: the
Covenant
Connector.’ It demonstrated the principles of faith, as seen in the
lives of
David and Caleb. Believers are not to make conclusions based on
circumstances,
but based on their covenant rights in Christ.
On
Saturday
morning, the Kay and Olu Taiwo spoke to Christian business men and
women during
a business breakfast. Here they expounded on the 7 Laws of Excellence.
The
message also emphasized 3 components that determine business success:
Discover your skill set
(what do you do with relative ease?). What are you best at doing?
What drives your Economic
engine (what can you process and package and exchange for income?)
What are you most
Passionate about?
The Taiwos
made it clear that every business must possess these three (3)
components
working together to determine and sustain success.
Kay and Olu
left Zimbabwe
on Sunday August 26th.
Thank
you for your interest, love and
support of Vision For Life Ministries and the Taiwos.
