HOW JOSEPH GOT SAVED
In 1987, Joseph had a vision while was still young at an early stage of 6 age, he saw a vision where The Lord Jesus Christ came to him and called him by name Joseph three times, then Joseph Responded and Jesus told him I’m Jesus Christ Follow me, so in a vision Joseph followed Him (the Lord Jesus) and this is how Joseph came to know the Lord.
Joseph could not know how to interpret this vision and being that Joseph was raised in a family full of witchcraft and shrines, when Joseph came out of the vision he tried to ask his parents but they could not help yet his parents were Anglican from church of Uganda, they could go to church but still practicing witchcraft and the church could not help them.
I started looking for Pentecostal churches, and in 1999 while in college senior four, I met a man of God Bishop and Pastor Hamoome Stephen we met in Kaliro town I had gone to his photo studio to get some photos and in that studio I met him with a bible so he asked me to remain behind for a moment and he brought the bible and started telling me about Jesus, while he was speaking there was something burning in me remembering the vision that I had while I was still young at the age of 6years.
So I told this man of God the vision and he told me that God loves much and told that, that was God’s calling, I accepted there and then, I believed and confessed Christ Jesus as my personal lord and savior, he prayed for and offered a bible to me as a gift. I was baptized by immersion, after baptism, I started speaking in tongues, I was filled the Holy Spirit and Bishop started training and equipping me for the work of the ministry. That is how Joseph Came to know Christ decided to come to the city of Kampala to seek for employment and He joined a ministry called revelation Worship Center, he served in this ministry as a teacher and an Evangelist for 4 years, and Joseph has been in ministry for over 11 years. Since then, Joseph has been committed to serving God’s purposes in his generation.
HOW JOSEPH WAS CALLED TO MINISTRY BY GOD.
In 2004, God gave Joseph a vision. In the vision he was teaching a big congregation, and the ministry of the was given and the sign which was to act as a logo and where the ministry was to be started the place was a also given. So in 2005 we started in a small room where I was renting we started meeting for bible studies, prayer meetings, counseling, etc, within few month the congregation grow that we were unable to fit in the room so we hired an open where we had a temporary structure for our fellowship, it reached to a time when the land owner sold his land and we were chased from the land in April 2009, and instantly God showed us another land where we are now renting having a temporary building for our fellowship, and we thank God so much for this. The vision has become a reality in his life today. Pastor Joseph Senoga Richard is an anointed man of God and God is using him to bring hope to the hopeless, to transform the lives many, to encourage and bring healing and deliverance to many.
