What did I just watch 🔥🔥🔥🔥… ??? Hallelujah !!!

Today is my 21st bday and I have decided to surrender my life Jesus Christ our Savior. This is my best birthday ever!!

Dear Students, Let me share my testimony🙏 In 2021 when i was in matric i got a vision that i was going to do medicine(honestly i thought this was impossible because i was an average student and i was more of an astronomy girl), i passed my matric with 7 distinction (a girl from a rural village) i then got accepted to do medicine (His thoughts and plans for me are greater). I was doing my second year when this song came out in 2023, i was having financial problems and my marks were so low i wasn’t qualifying for the exam… when i tell you that JESUS IS KING.. I MEAN IT, same week this song came out i got my funding and qualified for the exam and preceded to pass my second year( im now doing my third year as a medical student) HE WILL BRING INTO COMPLETION WHAT HE STARTED PHILIPIANS 1:6

11 Years of unemployment lost two pregnancies and a stillbirth at 8months, suicidal and felt like giving up on life. But there is a balm of gilead called Jesus, whom I believe will heal me. He didn't let me go, uyaphumelisa ngesandla sakhe lokho akushilo ngomlomo wakhe. He heard my cries and answered one of my prayers, I'm a qualified Paralegal studying BCOM Law, God sent his angels to speak on my behalf, I received a call to come start work the next day, no interview and no application but God. MAKABONGWE!!!

I had miscarriage last year, and this year God wiped my tears and blessed me with twins!!! Makabongwe........

One day I will play this song in my brand new car 😊.....makabongwe🙌🙌🙌🙌

Who’s here one year later?! ❤

I am going to play this song when I give my mother the keys 🔑 to her New house, a place where me and my brother can call home emakhaya 🙇🏽‍♀️🙌🏾🙏🏾

For 40 days, I’m gonna dedicate 40 minutes to God each day while playing this song… I’m gonna try God❤

Discovered this song 3 days ago and it stirred up my spirit, I didn't know why. That same day, my husband got robbed and his phone and car keys were stolen. He called me around 2am using a helper's phone to tell me what had happened. I got up, played this song, and started worshiping. I kept singing this song and worshiping into the following day. God sent my husband helpers who took him to the police and helped him track the robbers. In less than 24 hours both the phone and car keys were recovered. God saved my husband from the robbers and although our car was right in front of them, the robbers didn't think of taking the car too. They ran away with the keys (which does not make sense) which were then recovered by the police. As I worshipped and played this song, I felt the peace of God in my heart and I knew the battle was won. As I played it I was reminded of Paul and Silus in the prison. They praised God and their chains were broken, and prison doors opened. Makabongwe. Glory to God! This is a sound of heaven!

Started a business in December 2023, I spent months advertising my business and guess what today I got 20 customers. Makabongwe!!! 🙌 God is faithful

Let us take a minute and appreciate God for Pastor Nathaniel. His trumpet 🎺 likes: 👇

I am a witness, this night changed my life. I fell hard and backslid and I went to a "concert" and my God was waiting for me there to save me. After this night nobody told me t stop drinking and return to God but the Holy Spirit touched me and I am so grateful and thankful that I went. I am working full-time in the ministry now.

For 12 years I was a heavy drugs taker,Jesus set me free and now I'm working in a ministry where we look after drug addicts... praise the Lord!

Unemployed for about 3yrs now, no interviews coming through, anxiety levels raging high everyday, BUT I will stand still & glorify His holy name. MAKABONGWE 🙌🏿

Last week on the 5th of April 2024 God saved my husband, cousin and I from a terrible car accident, no one got hurt this can only be God🙏🙌🙌

We sang this song together with my Gynaecologist in theatre as my baby girl came into this world🙌🏾

After so many years wishing to have a child finally God has done a miracle and next month I'll officially be a father. hallelujah makabongwe😭🙏🔥👑

The Holy Spirit told me to play this song when I went to see my brother in law on Monday 28/8 at the hospital … he was a gobela/sangoma/mkhulu I really don’t know the difference but I made him take Christ as his Lord and Saviour on his death bed by the help of the Holy Spirit preaching to him assuring him that Christ is the only way, truth and life in 3 days that I’d visited him. Though he had been with my sister for 8 years, I never really knew him we’d only exchanged greetings and thank you’s twice and he was such a humble guy from what I heard and what I'd seen by the way he treated my sister and his kids. I visited him 5 times in 3 days and I remembered 5 is for grace and this scripture John 2:19 (Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”) is for the 3 days I spent by his bedside. But on the first night after I visited him, I saw numbers in his ward 5, 10 and 14 was the number written on his bed and it changed to 15 it all happened in my dream. I was curious to know what it meant biblically. 10 authority, completeness of order, and responsibility. 14 completion, spiritual perfection, if you have time you can google that because it has negativities as well but it made sense regarding the situation. 15 is for rest. I felt in my spirit that he was going to die but the way I prayed I had hope that he was going to make it, yeah… I guess he was going to make it to heaven and rest peacefully in our Father’s presence. RIP= Resurrection is promised. He was not speaking nor had any movement and barely opened his eyes, but when I prayed and started calling the name of Jesus and commanded the spirits to leave his body and I laid my hands on his head, he started sweating and wanted to take off his clothes and was able to fight aggressively though he had not enough strength but he managed to do so, he was pointing at unseen things on the roof and then he turned away not to look me in the eyes, I continued praying for him until it was time for us to go home. In the same evening we went back and he was able to whisper to me, he only managed to speak slowly when I was talking to him and I told him about Christ and he accepted Him. Point is on his last day on earth I played this song when it got to the trumpet part after a couple of seconds he took his last breath! And Christ confirmed that another soul is in heaven and there was celebration! God will leave 99 for that one lost sheep He does not want to see anyone going to hell, blessed are those who are highly favoured like my late brother in law! The trumpet sounded, another soul in heaven... victory belongs to Jesus and glory to God! 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Praise confuse the Enemy this song is my weapon as I go through my chemotherapy I know I have overcome the cancer this will be my victory song on my Thanksgiving celebration celebration March 2025 when I'm done with the treatment for now Makabongwe 🙏

I watched this worship more than 50 times. Played it to work, at home, I prayed along. This worshiping opens my door close to God. The worship encouraged for more prayers and fasting. I was lonely and single asking God to bless me with a particular woman. His way was above mine, His thoughts were higher than mine, from the woman I was expecting. God exceeded my expectations and added more. Now I have the woman from God desire because He is the Lord after all 🙏🏽🙏🏽

As an unemployed father of 4, (retrenched in 2021), I have learnt to say "Makabongwe" in everything. Life has been hard but nothing can separate me from Christ and I know He will come through for me and my family.

You're not reading this by accident this is a confirmation that everything is going to be alright GOD is making a way for you right now at this moment!GOD is working on your behalf. He is orchestrating things in your favor. There are blessings lined up just for you!GOD is so Good all the time GOD is so good!Get some Rest!GOD isn't going wreck His reputation on you.He's going to come through. It Will all work out!

23 December 2023 I got married to the love of my life in a beautiful wedding ceremony. I walked down the aisle to this song. What a beautiful song ❤

The drummer said I’ll play these drums to the glory of God 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 amazing visitation of the Holy Spirit in the room!!!

I suffered from infertility tried for so many years to get pregnant. I always prayed to god to please bless me with a child. I was watching a mother play with her son on tik tok one day I cried and screamed to God "God please give me a child!!!!!" that same day something in me told me to take a pregnancy test... it came back positive! I couldnt believe it I was in tears and in shock!I took more pregnancy tests and they all came back positive! A week after I found out I was pregnant I found a cross necklace a few steps away from where I worked at and I then knew it was really God all along and never left my side. I now have a 11 month healthy beautiful baby boy. He's turning 1 in a few days! ❤ God is good!

I've been a criple through injection but the Lord raised me up and now am walking perfectly fine without crushes. I have always been masterbating for ten years, but the Lord used just one day to deliver me, just in one day, I was saved. Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah, Makabongwe.

Psalm 150 vs 5 it says "Praise him with loud cymbals!, Praise him with resounding cymbals!" and that's exactly what Sabu did there🥁🔥🔥😭😭🙌🏽🙌🏽

The drummer did the unspeakable😭, he was under the influence of the HolySpirit😭🙏🏾.

But I trust in God because I know he has a bigger plan and he's gonna change my life.

Indeed MAKABONGWE🙌🏾🙌🏾❤❤❤😭😭

If we can praise God like this here on earth imagine in heaven I love being a Christian 💓 GOD help me I don't want to miss out on celebrating our wedding when we finally united with You our King of king's ❤❤

Here is my story watching this video.... watcher beware!! 1. I was feeling sorry for myself because my mom had passed when this video came on 2. I started thanking God about five minutes in that God would send such a wonderful song where I can forget about my sorrows. 3. I listened after a few minutes like what was going on here? This song has a great anointing. 4. 30 minutes I began learning and singing the song. MAKABONGEWE 5. 35 minutes and sometime around that I was screaming, thank you Jesus' uncontrollable 6. I calmed down and thought I really needed this. 7. Then I started screaming again because it started back and again because of the trumpet guy!! OMG!! 8. I can't believe the octaves and the strong wind of FIRE that saturated my room. 9. What in the world is the brass section doing? JESUS!... did you just make that up? 10. I believe I was no longer in the earthy realm. I felt heaven everywhere, heard whistling, and knew everything was going to be great in my life. 11. Again watcher, beware of this video. You will be stuck in worship!!

Greatest man in History who had no servants yet they called him Master.He had no degree yet they called him Rabbi.He had no medicines yet they called him Great Physician, He had no army yet the Kings feared him . He won no military battles yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb yet He Lives Today , His name is Jesus !

Still believing God for a good marriage, for a good nice car and a well paying job. in everything am blieving HIM for Makabongwe (LET HIM BE GLORIFIED)

My marriage and my business could have just finished this year but we are still standing makabongwe!!! Im still living im still breathing, im still calling his name, makabongwe!!!

From USA (New York State) I pray that God puts it on your Ministry to come to our country! We Need You ! !

Im returning to school after three gap years , ngizomobonga daily , He is a faithful God , My redeemer

Indeed, makabongwe. Since my childhood, I have been battling with many sinful acts and addictions. During my primary school days, the strong desire to show appreciation to my teacher led me to stealing from my mother. Not any other money, but the money that was contributed during Sunday church services and was kept with my mom. Since then, l begin to steal. The surprising thing about this whole matter was that, I never had the desire to steal outside our home. I only steal from my mother and sometimes from my father. Apart from my parents, I don't steal from anyone. This always bothers me. As young as a nine years old girl to be caught up with such act? I cried to God Almighty for his Mercy and deliverance and he saved me. After being saved from stealing, I saw my little self masterbating and bed wetting at the age of 12. But I am grateful that in all this, the Lord reached out his mighty hands and saved me. O LORD GOD, thanks a billions. Makabongwe.

First time hearing it I was at my aunty's place babysitting and I lifted my head staring at the ceiling then I didn't know which realm I had been transported into (it's like I was staring at the ceiling but I wasn't really looking there) my mouth opened, I started calling all the names n characters of God and what He had done fr so long( some I didn't even know),pouring my admiration n worship ,laughing n tears were flowing ( I felt like I was in God's embrace) . So so beautiful .

I stumbled upon this video in the office today and I just casually played it as I would play any worship song with my headphones while I work not knowing it wasn’t just business as usual. The spirit of God hit me there and then in the office, I found myself kneeling on the floor, blasting into tongues, goosebumps all over me. It was so palpable, couldn’t help it. I knew there was a shift in the spirit. This isn’t just a worship song. It is a move. A force. It is God Himself. If you properly tap in, you’ll experience it too. Jesus will forever be glorified! So grateful for Minister Ntokozo and Pst Nathaniel, the entire band understood the assignment! Sheeesh!! 🔥🔥

Whoever reading this, God never sends you into a situation alone, God goes before you, He stands beside you, He walks behind you. Whatever situation you have right now be confident. God is with you. Ameen

In the midst of unemployment and financial barriers I glorify him 😭😭🙏He who started the work in me is faithful to bring it to completion. I declare that I am employed In Jesus name 🙏🙏🙏Makabongwe

Trusting God for my mother & sibling to receive salvation. Please pray with me children of God🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Makabongwe my God, my aunt has been in Comma for two months after being diagnosed with breast cancer. I got to know this song yesterday and I've been worshipping through out this day. Lo and behold just received good news that my Aunt is awake. I want to encourage someone going through hard times not to give up, just continue worshipping God and He will see you through. I give God all the glory

I listen to this song every single day, last year beginning of last year I was so depressed. I decided to just give my life to Christ and I am about to finish a year of boldly walking with Christ. God has tremendously changed my life. From losing everything, being unemployed, sleeping on a couch for a year to now being employed in my dream job with an amazing partner. Makabongwe! He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. He can change your story too! He is so faithful!

Wanna come back here in my old age and show my kids how God responds to true worship

THE DRUMMER WORSHIPPED GOD WITH ALL MIGHT
