This morning, the Office of the Chaplain General in the Ministry of Defence held a Devotion and Bible Distribution Service in the Ministerial Conference Room.
The Kabwata Baptist Church was graciously invited to participate in the special service.
The Ministry of Defence Permanent Secretary Mr. Maambo B. Haamaundu, was present, along with Generals, Directors, Senior Officers of the Ministry of Defence, and other distinguished guests.
Pastor Chipita Sibale of Kabwata Baptist Church conducted the devotion under the title: “Trusting God in Command.”
He highlighted three key lessons:
The Command to Trust Completely (v. 5a), The Warning Against Self-Reliance (v. 5b) and The Practice of Submission and the Promised Outcome (v. 6)
"It is encouraging to interact with the senior officers. Though they often appear stern and intimidating in uniform or on television, they have proved to be very warm and sociable in person. The Permanent Secretary, in particular, has displayed a wonderful sense of humour," said Pastor Sibale.
In his sermon, Pastor Sibale hoped that the word which has been delivered will bear fruits.
"We pray that the word shared this morning will take deep root in the hearts of the hearers and bear lasting fruit for the glory of God. We thank the Lord for this open door of opportunity to serve and proclaim His truth in such influential circles," he added.
