Witnessing Before Rulers and Kings
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the President of Liberia and the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize Winner, asked me if our church was involved in helping the poor in Monrovia, Liberia. “Yes, absolutely, “I said. “We believe that every church member should be teaching and preaching, and helping and healing just like Jesus did.” She nodded her approval. “In fact,” I continued, “All our work in Africa has been based on Isaiah 61 from which we believe that we are anointed by the Holy Spirit to preach good news to the poor, bind up the broken-hearted, comfort those who mourn, provide for those who grieve. Bestow on them a crown of beauty, instead of ashes, oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. I believe that these orphans will become oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.”
