Kuwa mwalimu ni kama kuwa missionary.ile laana utapata pale hakuna wa kuiondoa.walimu ni kama yesu kristo.wanaubiri habari njema ya ministry of Education. A teacher anywhere in kenyan country is an agent of teachers service commissioner.This is an arm of the government the backbone of the Economy of Kenya.why did you do this?so toho wa mungu akiondoka you takes the course.mlitukana toho wa mungu naye akawaondokea akiondokanga.without the spirit you are going nowhere kenyans.hao waxing walipia kwa kuwa mwalimu kwanzia saa huu amen Jerusalemu amen bye bye amen
Walimu hawatagoma tutaendea kuhubiri hiyo habari njema ya midomo ya ministry of Education kwanzia saa uu.amen Jerusalemu amen.
Wanaweza kuwa ni wachawi maana maneno yao yanafanana na mchawi.
Hata sheitani ajiinue kiwango gani kwa ministry if Education there is protection of the blood of Jesus.you cant cross that wall whoever you are if you are an enemy to this ministry there are angles at bay for security both to the teachers and the ministry itself amen Jerusalemu amen.line no QQQ 999 Heavenly Jerusalemu amen
I have seen a vision today of being cleansed by the name ,blood and the holy spirity of Jesus christ.amefagia na kuongoza ubaya katika nchi ya kenya.hautasikia tena mauaji Jeova mwenyewe ameondoa lila ubaya wote kwa nchi.Just imagine wakijua mwalimu nasikia vibaya sana lakini baada ya maombi kila ubaya wote ndani ya miili ya watu na kuongoza kabisa iyo wangu mbaya kwa akili za watu.ni maombi tu wanaenda kanisani kuombea kila mkenya aondokewe na ubaya.Jerusalemu line yake Jeova El shaddai Yashwa Rabii line no QQQ 999 Jerusslemu
Hao watu walio huwa mwalimu are demonic.wachunguze jicho kijiji Chao.wanatenda you.hawaogopi mungu.wanafanana na sheitani ibilisi mwenyewe.wajichunguze hawanatofauti na sheitani.
Rise up Jeova El shaddai and fight for the kenyan teacher who does your work of modelling these young children in kenyan schools. It’s the high time now you drop the salvation of kenyan teachers if they have reached to a point of killing the teachers Jeova El shaddai the almighty God of power descend now and rescue our teachers from these brutal human kind descend now we are praying for your help fro Jerusalemu the highest sitting place of the slmighty God amen Jerusalemu amen byebye amen
Its such as you learn my mind! You seem to
know so much about this, like you wrote the e book
in it or something. I believe that you can do
with a few percent to drive the message house a little bit,
however other than that, that is fantastic blog. An excellent
read. I’ll certainly be back.
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but
I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would never
understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me.
I’m looking forward for your next post, I will
try to get the hang of it!
