14-year-old Lipallo was one of a few young people who attended a Level 1 Langham Preaching<\/a> training event in Maseru, Lesotho, for the first time in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He attended with his mum and a few others from his church.  Joseph Morenammele, Langham Preaching\u2019s coordinator for Lesotho, commented that Lipallo \u201csurprised all the participants\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He \u201camazed\u201d everyone the way he commented on biblical concepts and his engagement during discussions. He \u201cbreathed scriptures into ordinary conversation\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Madly in love with the Bible\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Joseph reported: \u201cWhen he answers a question in a session he always accompanies it with a relevant verse from elsewhere. When he prays, he prays scripture very accurately. He is inquisitive like all boys. He reasons like an adult.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lipallo had some speech problems at a young age, but as he grew up his health conditions improved. Born to Christian parents, he fell \u201cmadly in love with the Bible\u201d at a very young age. He gave his life to Christ at the age of six and took his conversion seriously. A while later, Lipallo became a Sunday School teacher at his local Assemblies of God church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At school, Lipallo is not counted as one of the brightest pupils but he excels in the subject of Bible knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Let\u2019s keep an eye on him\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Joseph says: \u201cHe is deep in understanding and applying scripture. He is far more mature than his age. Let us keep our eye on him and pray for him\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please join with us in praying <\/strong>for Lipallo, and the other teenagers who attended this Langham Preaching seminar in Lesotho. Let\u2019s pray that God would use these young people for great things in the future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
