With an agenda to turn Uganda into a Moslem nation, Idi Amin seriously persecuted Christians during his rule in the 1970’s. At a point he banned all but three Christian churches from operating in Uganda.
But Pastor Kefa Sempangi who was the pastor of the Redeemed Church of Uganda, defied Amin’s orders.
On Easter Sunday of 1973, he gathered over 7000 worshippers to celebrate Christ.
After the all-day worship service Pastor Kefa was confronted by men of Idi Amin’s Secret Police. They entered into a room where he was and pointed their rifles at his face and told him they were going to kill him for disobeying Amin’s orders.
The pastor told them his life was hidden in Christ, rather it was their own lives that were in danger; because they were headed for eternal damnation as sinners.
God used the words of the Pastor to penetrate the hardened hearts of these men. Instead of assassinating the pastor, they asked for his prayers .
These men became Christians that day and would later become instrumental in helping to save the lives of many Christians from the terror rule of Idi Amin.

As the redeemed of the Lord, our lives are hidden in Christ. It is no longer us that live but Christ is living His life through us. We are simply an extension of Christ as we live on earth.
Today marks Good Friday, the day Christ died for our sins on the Cross of Calvary. As He gave up the ghost, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.
The curtain in the temple symbolized the separation between God and man. But through His death, Jesus tore the veil that separated us from God.
With the middle wall of partition broken down, God’s Presence now abides with us.
Our lives are now bound in Christ’s life. We are no longer living as human beings on earth, but living as divine beings in Christ.
As Christ rose from the death, so have we been raised to sit with Him in Heavenly places far above principalities and powers and every force of darkness.
This understanding of our spiritual change of status will give us boldness and confidence against every attack of the enemy.
Whatever comes against us comes against the God in us. Whoever touches us touches the apple of His eyes.
Certainly, what cannot happen to Christ is not permitted to happen to us because in Him we live and move and have our being.(Acts 17:28).

PRAYER
Father, I thank You that through Christ’s death and resurrection, I have received new life and complete victory over every force of wickedness. Thank You Lord for enabling me to walk daily in the full consciousness of my redemption and victory in Jesus’ Name.
