Missionary Work in South
Africa

Our
South Africa campaign was launched in February of 2003. It consisted
of a team of six brothers—myself, my brother Alan, Bro. Frank from
Alaska, Bro. Bernie Jr. from Arizona, Bro. Martin from Germany, and
Bro. Paul from Kenya. We were privileged to see God do many marvelous
things from the start by giving us a radio broadcast, and leading us
to just the right people with a burden for the lost souls.

One such person was Bro. Francis Dicks of Durban who we have come to
love and appreciate. We have had the privilege to minister in his
church many times and to go out on the streets and preach the Gospel
with the wonderful group of believers and to see the results.

Our path has also crossed many others with a missionary heart such as
Bro. Brian Grose of Capetown who travels all over South Africa and other
neighboring countries with a tent preaching the glorious message of the hour.
Also Bro. Dale and his father Bro. Theo who work night and day
for the Lord.
There are so many more we would like to mention like Bro. Ronnie and
his two sons Keegan and Ruben, who have caught the vision for the lost
and dying—they truly have the burden. One such effort that we have
participated in with these brothers is distributing receiving blankets
to mothers for their newborn babies at the AIDS hospital in Hlavisa.
They truly have a compassion for these unfortunate people. May God
bless their efforts.

And there is Bro. Devin and his lovely wife Diane, daughter Abigail,
and son Jonathan who have made our trips to South Africa working for
the Lord as good as it gets. They have given us lodging, food, washed
our clothes and whatever we have needed. For this we are thankful
beyond words, so we will say may God richly bless them.
Now as for the missionary work, we feel the work is the Lord’s and we
give all the Glory to the Lord. As we endeavor to carry out the plan
that Bro. Branham so meticulously laid out on the tape “Taking Sides
With Jesus”, and the instructions he gave my father. Bro. Branham had
a great love for South Africa and the people there, and desired to see
South Africa receive the full benefit of his ministry. Many of the
brethren whom God has called have done a tremendous work already in
South Africa, but the land is so vast, and the harvest is so great.
Let us pray that the Lord will send laborers into His fields that they
might harvest every last predestinated seed that God has ordained in
this wonderful country.
As Bro. Branham said:
What good is the stones if you haven't got a stone mason to shape
them out? Confessions is stones. When Peter made his confession, Jesus
said, "Thou art Peter, a little stone." But what good is a stone if
there isn't a stone mason there to shape him into a son of God? You're
just piling up a bunch of rocks. Is that right? Isn't doing a bit of
good. See? The water weareth away the stone. See, that's right; that's
the people.
What good is stones if you haven't got a true stone mason with a good
sharp tool to shape him into the fitting place in the house of God?
Just want to ask you, what good's the decisions? What good you putting
your name on the Book? What good is come join the church, if the stone
mason isn't there that'll shape that and make them quit this and that,
and cut them and make them over this way, and square them up and make
them like Christians that sets in the house of God with signs
following the believers? That's end-time evangelism, taking the stones
and shaping them. — The End Time Evangelism
This my brother and sisters is what the Word of God for our hour is
doing. So our job is to try to get it to the people. We do not deserve
to hear it twice when there are those who have never heard it once. We
ask you to pray that God will lead us into His perfect will.
Your Brother in Christ,
Bro. Daniel Martin

Spoken Word Broadcast
Getting the Word of God out on the
airwaves by the mouth of His prophet is our strongest desire for South
Africa at this time. We have seen the results when Bro. Branham
(through these broadcasts) leads the way. We have met with strong
opposition, but the Lord is able, and He will provide.
