Africa’s First Traditional Gay Wedding Takes Place In South Africa

A pair of South African men have tied the knot in what is believed to be the country’s first traditional gay wedding…although gay weddings have been legalised in South Africa for 6 years now.
Tshepo Cameron Modisane and Thoba Calvin Sithole tied the knot in traditional Zulu and Tswana attires, in a ceremony which took place in the town of KwaDukuza, KwaZulu-Natal. The newly-married couple, who are both 27 and have been together for three years, made their vows in front of 200 guests.
Professor Velaphi Mkhize, a Zulu traditional culture analyst and writer, said Zulu culture did not recognise homosexuality, therefore, traditionally, Modisane and Sithole’s marriage was void. Prof Mkhize said:

8 Year Old Boy Who Married 61-Year-Old Woman To Please His Ancestors Is Settling Down To Married Life

8 year old Sanele Mailela recently got married to a 61 year old woman after his grandfather contacted him from beyond the grave asking him to have a ‘white wedding’. So the schoolboy chose family friend and mother-of-five Helen and his family paid £500 for her to be his wife at a £1,000 ceremony in Tshwane, South Africa.
Dressed in a bow tie and tiny silver suit, little Sanele, the youngest of five children, exchanged rings in front of 100 guests and even puckered up for a kiss. Sanele said:

‘My grandfather contacted me through a picture of my mother’s wedding. We have a special bond because I am named after him.
He (Grandfather) said he had seen the picture and felt sad that he had never been able to have a white wedding of his own so he asked me to get married. I chose Helen because I love her.
The [wedding] day was great and it was exactly what I had imagined it would be like.
My friends thought it was really funny that I was getting married but I do now feel like a husband.’

“No amount of opposition is strong enough to stop God or terminate His divine agenda. It is not by power, it is not by might. It is by my Spirit says the LORD of host. Therefore, when you speak out, you are saying to your mountain ‘who are you, mountain before me, I command you, become plain, in Jesus’ name”. This is your time to ask the Awesomely Awesome God, the Almighty God, by His mighty power, to turn your impossibilities to sudden possibilities. You must say to our Precious God, ‘from today, for every step of obedience I make in this kingdom race, show me an act of Your kindness, in Jesus’ name.’”

"Confronting Your Mountain"

"You were blessed when you were born; you were never designed by God to fail. When God created man, He blessed him and anointed him with prophetic spirit filled with word for fruitfulness. So you have been mandated to be fruitful. The earth is the LORD’s. He is in charge, when there is no rain, there will be dew. God sustained Isaac with dew in the time of famine. God is aware that you are in this land, there is something in you that God wants you to discover and manifest to affect your world. May you discover to recover"

“Right where you are, our covenant responsibility is to pray and God’s own is to answer our prayers. You must say things with a touch of finality, and a hint of conclusion and with a measure of authority. Therefore, in this season, you shall manifest as a solution to your world. Your open heaven is waiting for your open mouth to catapult you to an enviable position with outstanding results. Don’t pity your mouth and die in silence. Cry out to God before it is too late."

"Men and brethren, when you stop speaking, you stop manifesting. When you stop speaking God’s word, you will stop having God’s answers and manifesting His glory. Open mouth Open Heavens. Today’s devotion will help you to choose and speak biblical based words daily"

Psalm 124:if the lord had not been on our side-let lsrael say-if the lord had not been on our side when men attack us,they their anger flared against us,they would have swallowed us alive;the flood would have engulfed us,the torrent would have swept over us,the raging waters would have swept us away. Praise be to lord,who has not let us torn by their teeth we have escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare;

Who Is Sara Baartman? Every Black Woman Should Know Her Name [PHOTOS & VIDEO]

I first read about Sarah Baartman, very casually and in passing, many years ago. I didn’t know her by her real name. Rather, I knew her as the ‘Hottentot Venus.’
Not until recently, when I stumbled upon a historic film about her, was I filled with rage about the injustice she suffered in the hands of the Europeans. Sometimes, I find it difficult to imagine why the early Europeans saw us, Africans as savages…when indeed they were the true perverts and savages. You need to see the way those white men leered at her with lustful eyes.
I have taken time to research on Sarah Baartman. The most comprehensive report comes from SouthAfrica.Info. I have taken the liberty of culling their report so that we could all learn about this incredible South African woman from the Khoisan tribe who was mistaken for a freak because she had very big hips, buttocks and an enlarged VJJ.
Culled From, SouthAfrica.Info:

“The reason you must speak out is that Heaven has made you a testimony. It is not that you only give a testimony. Your life is a testimony. You are a sermon in the flesh. You are a living epistle. You are the 67th book of the bible. God is writing a letter to the world through your life. Goliath saw David by what he spoke out as a rude boy, but heaven saw him as a Champion. Thou enemy of progress, breakthrough, good health, and poverty, you are going down”
