Rev. Dr. Rudolph Q. Kwanue, Sr. and his wife Rev. Rita N. Kwanue earnestly prayed for a vision of accomplishment and God spoke to Dr. Kwanue on the afternoon of February 18th , 2009 and gave him the vision .

The Lord Said Son, you are called to a Global Vision be ready, you will suffer so many things but I will be with you.

keep in mind that your family will go with little food, clothes, shelter, and finance for a five (5) year period and after all you will reap what you have propagated.

 This was a difficult moment for me with the statement made by the Lord.

A day later, while resting in the same area at our Church at about three in the afternoon once again, I has a vision.

Behold three angles appeared to me with the same message as the Lord has told me earlier.

Finally one of the angles Declared to me Rudolph, yes Lord I replied, he said all your long suffering pronounced at the end will bring glory to the name of the Lord.

I asked the question Sir, how can I get the support needed? He answered when the Lord gives a Vision, He gives provision, do not worry son be strong.

After three months I explained this vision to my wife and she rebuked me for having gone through this suffering alone for so long.

She said God forbid, ha-ha-ha Dr. Kwanue laughed and explained the vision in detail to her and she understood and agreed. When God allows it to be done she said.

The Church began to worship and things begin to happen positively. While experiencing the words pronounced by those Angels earlier.
