A mango tree does not need to announce its presence—the scent of its fruits calls out to passersby. In the same way, when God decides to move, even those who do not believe cannot deny His presence. This was the case in Pakistan when Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche, a Nigerian preacher and medical doctor, carried the gospel into a land where Christianity is as scarce as harmattan in July. His recent crusades in Pakistan were more than just a church gathering; they were a loud reminder that God can do the unexpected in the most unlikely places.
Dr. Enenche himself marveled at the move of God in Pakistan, saying: “The door that God has opened, no devil can close. It is a revival of massive proportion, never seen before in that region.” His words proved true. In a country where Christians make up less than 2% of the population, thousands gathered, lifting their voices in worship, and the blind, the lame, and the sick encountered the healing hand of God. It was like water springing from a rock, like light bursting into a room that had known only darkness. Even more shocking was the ease with which God paved the way for the crusade to hold. For the first time in history, the Pakistani government opened its borders, granting free visas to visitors worldwide just as the crusade was about to take place. It was as if heaven itself had issued the invitation.
A man who has never seen a river before will argue that the ocean is a myth. But when he finally stands before the roaring waves, his doubts melt away like salt in water. In Pakistan, people who had never witnessed miracles firsthand saw them unfold before their eyes. A woman who had spent years tied to a wheelchair stood up and walked. The blind opened their eyes like a child waking from sleep. A man who had been deaf from birth heard his name for the first time. It was not mere talk; it was power in action. As St. Augustine once said, “Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.” What happened in Pakistan was proof that God is not limited by culture, religion, or location. If He could move mightily in a country where Christians are few, then there is no nation, no city, and no village where His power cannot be felt.
The wind does not ask for permission before it blows, and God does not need human approval before He moves. If His power could shake Pakistan, then what excuse does Nigeria have? We are a nation with churches on almost every street, yet sometimes, it feels like we have forgotten the raw power of God. The miracles in Pakistan should be a wake-up call.
Dr. Enenche’s journey to Pakistan was not just about preaching; it was about proving that faith is like a seed—if planted, it will grow, no matter the soil. His boldness reminds us of the words of John Wesley: “Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God, and I care not whether they be clergy or laymen, they alone will shake the gates of hell.”
The challenge is simple: If the fire of God can burn in Pakistan, then no land is too hard, no people too lost, and no situation too impossible. The only question is: Are we willing to believe? The world has seen many revivals, but this one carries a unique lesson—God does not need favourable conditions to move. He only needs a willing heart. And in Pakistan, He found many. Now, the ball is in our court. Will we open our hearts and let Him in? Only time will tell.
