About Us
Forward in Faith Ministries International (FIFMI), also known as ZAOGA in parts of Southern Africa is a powerful Pentecostal ministry, whose agenda is to preach the true and uncompromising gospel of Jesus Christ. This gospel is not founded on the doctrines of man, but of Jesus Christ, as fulfilled on the day of Pentecost.
Rarely does an organization with such a vast world-reach hold a testimony of simplicity, and a genuine “humble beginnings” story. However, this is a story beginning with a man obeying the voice of God, which resulted in countless believers worldwide who are hungry for a deeper union with Jesus Christ.
History
On 12 May 1960, Ezekiel Guti responded to God’s special call, a call which led to the birth of the ministry under a eucalyptus tree, and in one of the most primitive countrysides of Zimbabwe called Bindura.
In 1963, as he prayed in the Bindura caves, God spoke to him and said,
“Learn and read the English bible and learn to preach in English because you shall go to many countries with my word.”
He did so in the caves everyday with prayer and fasting, and today the ministry of Forward in Faith has reached far and wide, with locations all over the world.
Many people across the continents have given their lives to Jesus Christ in response to the preaching of the gospel through FIFMI.
International Missions. From Africa to the World
FIFMI fervently sends missionaries from Africa and beyond to proclaim the unadulterated gospel. In a world witnessing a decline in faithfulness to God, the ministry is continuing dilligently in the vision entrusted to Apostle Dr. Ezekiel Guti, who personally planted numerous churches all over the world, along with just engaging in soul winning outreaches for the purpose of sharing the gospel to the lost.
The ministry has a burning passion to bring the timeless message of hope and salvation to all nations. This also includes western nations which were once on fire for the Lord but have seen a rapid decline in morality and in the preaching of the true gospel. FIFMI is ministering throughout Africa, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Australasia, the Americas and various Island nations across the globe.
