VISION BACKGROUND

In 2010, while praying, fasting and fellowshipping, I received a ministration from God: “I have seen the faith of my people, but I barely see their love.” Immediately, it occurred to me that quite a number of Christians in African churches are zealous for God mostly for the wrong reasons. Because Africa is an impoverished continent, and the governments have failed to provide the basic needs of life, people turn to God to receive what the governments have failed to provide. While this is fundamentally wrong, it also hinders the possibility of the people to know God beyond His capacity to provide them food, clothing, shelter and money. Although God is Jehovah Jireh, Christianity is wider and deeper than a religion meant to solve hunger problems and men ought to seek God beyond His capacity to provide basic needs of life. No wonder the Christianity in Africa cannot convict the already rich and powerful figures of the land, this justifies the why immediately some Christians become financially and materially stable, their attention is directed elsewhere other than God. Another irony is that as the poor pray to get rich, many of them are lost in pursuit of greed, and their attention gradually shifts to mundanity, causing the true gospel propagated by Jesus Christ and the Apostles to suffer a lack of attention. The result is that although we have mega churches, they are filled with baby Christians who cannot independently defend the faith and the gospel. My spirit has been burdened with the obvious biblical illitercy in the Nigerian and African church, and there exists no doubt in my spirit that the church desperately needs discipleship which will ground the believers in scriptural knowledge and accuracy, beginning from new creation fundamentals, to deeper matters of doctrine. My heart is burdened with a desire to see Africans and indeed the world love God for who He is, not necessarily for what He gives us. In Galatians 5:6, we are reminded that “..faith works by love.” But what I see in church today is a people with a dysfunctional faith that only hopes to receive from God, without a commensurate love  for God. I see a people who cannot make long term commitments to serve God becuase they do not understand subject matters like the Cross. This is worrisome becuase this kind of church can be easily swept away by any persecution that rises against it. Notably, Nigeria is at the forefront of the African revival, but a large number of Nigerian Christians need help in matters of doctrine and discipleship. A sustainable church must place love above faith, according to 1 Corinthians 13:13 “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” but unfortunately, in Nigeria faith comes first and love is almost absent. The growth of the church is phenomenal, but a growing church also needs discipleship. Training and discipleship for the average believer and indeed pastors has become a matter of urgency in the body of Christ in Nigeria, this further informs my vision. Jesus admonished us in Matthew 28:19 to “go and make disciples of all nations…,” but what we have here in Africa is church growth without discipleship. And such a church can be easily swept away by false doctrines. David E. Stevens in his article; “The Greatest Challenge Facing the African Church: Pastoral Training”, noted that: “The growth of the African church in recent years has been phenomenal. It is estimated that the number of Christians in Africa increased from 9 million in the early 1900s to about 380 million by the end of the century. … It is estimated that 90 percent of all pastors in Africa have no formal biblical, theological, or pastoral training. As a result, false doctrines and syncretistic expressions of the Christian faith are rampant throughout Africa. …It is estimated that even if the presently established Bible schools and seminaries were filled to 120 percent capacity, they could only train 10 percent of the remaining 90 percent of pastors that desperately need such training.” To this end, there is need to do more in training the average Nigerian Christian, and Worship Streams Ministry is trusting God to be instrumental in effecting this training and equipping the believer with cardinal gospel truths which nessitates Christian maturity.
