I Am not Black.

No mater how much i tried to be Asian, somehow everyone was able to call me out. i have not figured why but while i was at the base in Muizenberg i always heard of a Lady who would challenge others by leading what she is talking about. well i have been asking God that was to be my role.

He has not given me an answer yet but, im going ahead with it. what i am saying is i want to be in Thailand for a Year, Yes i know one year sounds short. 

when on outreach 3 months or 2 can be a very long time one starts to miss things that do not matter at all. like Meat, Who wants meat when you have rice and noodles? Not Just any noodles 711 noodles they are Thai believe me.

The People Love me there, i get irritated at times from weird looks i get at the mall for being a bit more taller and darker.  my name gets me in awkward situations as well for a lot of people can not pronounce the click in my name. 

I love these Kids, well I am uncertain of  what exactly I will be doing where I will be, but I am certain that I will be in Chiang Mai. if my host will let me I might be with the kids in the Slums for most of my days and getting to know where they all come from, being from Masiphumelele I some times feel like I can relate to the kids there.

there was a time in my life when i did not have shoes or when i did have em they were a bit too small and had to wear them, so that my family would not be a laughing stock. 

yeah! that's my Ministry Face there, ha ha ha! being in the Bars with the lady boys is always a high light. i think i will try and get more training on how to steal a workers time and make yourself more important with out being seen as a potential customer. 

if you would wanna Join me or want to support me in anyway don't hesitate to send me an email at dubula86@gmail.com / dubula06@hotmail com i would love to share what God has done in my life..

Prayin for Burma and more Rice

we were on the most Northern part of Thailand. juts below Myanmar. and while we were there we worked with different churches and schools, something i noticed a lot while there is that the place had quite a lot of Orphans. who are mostly kids from Myanmar. some of them will beg on the streets while a lot will be saved.

Some woman from here are victims of Human Trafficking.

This above is a picture of Myanmar from a mountain top of Thailand. down there are ruined city walls.

when we were in a village called Fang we lived in the peoples houses ate what they ate,well some times. worked on the rice fields and now we know how the rice got to our table.

Night Life...

Top: that was another night out lovin people and showing them that they are  worth more and they are beautiful. our night Ministry at the Bars starts late at night. and we all have grown to love what we are doing even thought it has been one of the most difficult things to do.
every night is different there. for us and them. but please keep praying for our safety in there especially our hearts and minds from all the destruction we see night in and night out.
Nothing can ever prepare one for a night out there. some night we feel like there is breakthrough and some nights we all come home filled with what i call righteous anger. we get angry the the old man who are there sayin all kinds of disgusting things to the young girls who we are tryin to save from the Devils ways.

 

I doubt that i would eat that one at Home, Bugs are a Delicacy here.No matter how much you tell yourself that it will be Okay. it is hard chewing when you think about a bugs life.

We ate coz our Friends in the Bars offered them to us. at times we are offered the funkiest foods, the food gets so funky that its too easy to say Thank you..i ate and  that did not taste like Chicken at all when i thought i was done with it the wings were stuck between my teeth. as Americans will say it was epic.
Die To Self. (DTS)

one of many things we do in the Bars is spending time with the Ladies playing games and getting to know them. and i have to say when they do speak English they are amazing people with Families some are there to earn enough Money either to support their families or send their kids to school.

we do prayer walks through the district. recently  we have had one person that we have investing all in.and i wanna ask if you would pray for Him. He is a lady boy here who is from another country and its really hard to tell what is really happening in His life. I wanna ask you, To keep Him in your Prayers For his Identity, and Security.
and please Pray for our team. to stay in tune with Holy Spirit.Thank you for your prayers we are seeing great things here.in our own lives and the people we are reaching.

Floods....................

Coming here i knew it was rainy season but i had no idea what that meant.
Last few nights have really made it clear to me and the rest of my team, I have always asked my self why the houses are on stilts here and i didn't need a local to answer that question for me.

the Boys working it out. we were filling up a sand bag. BOTTOM. a passage leading to our house is flooded and the streets filled so much that water was just bellow my knees.

 we are still in Asia. right so they have bicycles.

i will let the pictures do the talking. from here. but wanna ask if you all would pray for the people who live in the slums, if i am correct this country is 40% water, and there are rivers everywhere. and if you live there these times are not picture as picture perfect as they are foreigners.
this is a misery they have to buy food and save in-case they get stuck in doors for a few days. while every thing will be floating around their houses.

also pray that our team will have more opportunities to help rebuild what ever gets ruined in these hard times. Thank you Nceba Africa2Asia

life in pictures

these were a few woman from the red light district here in Thailand. we are working with them this time and it seems so easy when you have some one who has done that type of ministry in your team. and i am actually enjoying it there even though i am called chocolate man.

just on top is a picture of a good friend of mine who i am hoping to share the gospel with before leaving this place. His name is Rose yeah i know it doesn't make any sense, its a Boy or was he got a sex change at the age of 19.and he is open but i want to be lead by Holy Spirit not my own desire to see what God will do with and through her/him.

just on top here is a family that lives, off fighting Chickens.. from the Slums we are wishing to get to know these people even though we do not speak the language.

Right, that was a Boy from a village that we worked in last year. and we will be working there with this team and we will need a whole lot of payers. the place is ready to hear the gospel.
the people are amazing there food was fun and funky but no running tummies there....

this is just half of our team we are really excited for what God is Going to do with our team here in this place, we did a temple tour so that we can get to know more about the people we are reaching and not  
work on assumption and what we learnt from other places. but to reach the people in a way that would make sense to who they are..

They love me here, no matter where i go everyone wants a piece of Me here, going through the Slums mothers want me to kiss their babies...no really but i thought this lil baby was the cutest thing out there and the mother for some reason trusted me with her Beautiful Baby....













please pray for our team on these few points..

• Unity
• Purity (red light district is heavy )
• Energy (its very humid and hot)
• Focus
• Finances (myself and two other Students)
• Growth
• Hunger to see God Move.

where to from here..?

Discipleship Training School (DTS) just ended. Many days ago when all this started i didn't really know what i was doing here or why i was here but God had a plan and i was in it or should i say i was "It". 
I got to Muizenberg not so long ago, when i got here one of those things that i couldn't stop thinking about was "now I'm here how the heavens I'm i going to go to out reach? " i still don't have an answer to this question but God came through for me not just for outreach but for lecture phase too.During this time i learnt how to be intentional with God and how to go up to him and sit on his lap, without any fear of him being too occupied.

During lecture phase i discovered God and our reason for being. but these last few days i have been discovering what God has for me, but with it i had to lay down what i want to do, and within a short space of time things have changed a lot, i went to outreach with a zeal and longing to go into the eastern cape as soon as i come back from outreach. i wanted to go while i still had the momentum from all what we had done Through Christ In Thailand..

But this Morning i went to a Spiritual check up,and i got a lot of things on how pace is picked up, and this makes total sense to me. for even cars have to start on lower gears before going to the fastest gear.. as much as kids have to crawl before walking . its think this is all because they have to get used to the idea of getting around,on their own,
I believe that's exactly what God said this Morning when i was being prophesied over one of the Guys from the "prayer and worship department" said you have to be pregnant for nine months before giving birth. at that time because i am still excited about my eastern cape vision i did not see what was coming my way.
 I told my self that he meant its not going to be easy, and i was contant with that. and today as i was talking to God, ohh! this is one of those things that made no sense at all before DTS but now it makes total sense,God is relational and he wants us to talk with him.
anyway what i got there was i need a foundation before laying down bricks for the eastern cape vision i need to do a SBS (School of Biblical Studies) I'm still at a cross roads here for i wanted to staff a dts and then do all these tings that i had been planning. but all i need at this point are prayers for i need a lot of confirmation from about this...
i want to Thank everyone who has helped me with this outreach to Thailand, weather it was spiritually or financially or you were there when i needed to Get my head out of Thailand.... Thank you for your prayers and above all Thank you Jesus for the Work you Did in Thailand and all that your doing in me and Through Me.... "Your Beautiful"

Living on the Foot of Burma

We are now in Mae Sai, a small city just on the border of Burma, and this is a hot spot for human trafficking and Child labour is a hit here, over the other side of the border life is harder because of the Military regime that is in Charge of the country. Burma is known as one of the most corrupt countries in the world, and that does not surprise me, i have been here for less than a Month but i have heard how people are mistreated in their own mother land by their own fellow country man, By what people say woman have no rights but woman can be in the army just as sex slaves. The Junta army can come into any one's house and take what ever they want to take. and do whatever they please.

its a also a country flooded by tribal wars. and they have been going for years and years. Freedom is a little swim on a not so tiny river that divided the two countries, regardless of the risk of drowning people do it anyway, One can be given a week in Thailand as a Refugee and after that week one can be taken to a refuge camp. i know that police are only doing their Job, but every morning when there is a road block they would always harass someone who doesn't have the right papers for being in Thailand. and for me this really looked like Apartheid that happened in South Africa about 15 years ago. and i really got angry when ever this occurred, but while all this is happening i can see what God is doing within small groups off Burmese people,
one of those things that i observed was that this country has people who put all their trust on these Gods that they have, even thought most of them are Buddhist i could see how passionate they would be about Christ. listen to this about 100 years ago there were Wars between Burma and Thailand and they fought over those Big Gold Buddha Statues that they have all over the country.

please pray for the people of Burma/ Myanmar is its known Today but i like the name Burma i think its cool...
