National Revival in Jamaica
In 1833 William Wilberforce managed to pass a bill in Parliament which ended slavery in Jamaica and the Caribbean. Then in 1962 Jamaica became independent of the United Kingdom. Yet since then, Jamaica has still been in spiritual slavery and needs another level of freedom available in Christ Jesus.
The Vision
Steven and Tamara James have a real love for the nation and people of Jamaica. In 2004, when they were preparing for marriage and wanted to book their honeymoon, they prayed and asked God where they should go. Steven had a vision of a waterfall which moved both him and Tamara. When they went to see a travel agent to ask him where he thought they ought to go for their honeymoon, the agent picked up a brochure, flicked through the pages and opened the page to a picture of beautiful waterfall in Jamaica. They went not knowing that God was taking them on a 14 day mission preaching the gospel.
It was such a moving experience being in Jamaica during their honeymoon, that on the very last day, Tamara found herself weeping for the people as it rained heavily, indicating that God too was shedding his tears for this beautiful country. It was the only day that it rained. Steven commented to Tamara that God was giving them a foretaste of what was to come in the future. Six years later they returned to Jamaica with their three young children after they had connected with a local pastor. They stayed in the country on that second occasion for initially one month but two and half months after they had left Jamaica they were back, but this time they had packed up all of their belongings and had rented out their home in the UK in order to help pay for their mission.
The Nation
The nation of Jamaica has a population of 2.89 million. Jamaica is a very spiritual country and almost everyone has an awareness of God. Many people attend church, although a great number of them would admit that they are not saved and have not received the Holy Spirit nor been baptised. A very large number of Jamaicans also attend Christian type cults. On the surface Jamaica appears a Christian country, but spiritually much of it is poor, with widespread fornication, terrible poverty, sickness, violence and death. Also, as an after effect of slavery many Jamaicans are often still in spiritual and mental bondage, and the grace message of the Gospel can be hard for them to grasp. Even though many believe in Jesus they still think they have to strive for their salvation.
The Solution
The Gospel can change all this. What difference will you make?
The Vision
- For Jamaica to fully turn to the Messiah Jesus and undergo a great and lasting national revival by the year 2022.
- Finish the work that William Wilberforce started and take the emancipation of Jamaica to a new level of freedom in the Spirit.
