Rev. Ntia I. Ntia can only be described in the superlatives. An extra ordinary Pastor,insightful teacher, fiery preacher,leader par excellence, passionate mentor, an embodiment of hard work, excellence, doggedness and selfless service.
By divine arrangement, I embraced and submitted to the Ministry of God's servant many years ago as a purposeless undergraduate in dire need of mentoring, coaching and direction.
To be frank,I never knew I needed all that until I sat under the efficacious word of God preached and taught by him.
Looking back,I can say without an iota of doubt that God took me to him in order to give my life a meaning.
Emboldened by the teachings of God's servant, empowered by the grace of God through his constant impartation and enabled by the discipline learnt by observing his personal conduct,I can say that Iam fulfilling purpose.
He has taught me contentment, modesty,simplicity, humility,discipline, tolerance ,excellence, hardwork etc.His picture looms large before me as a model of greatness, success and excellence.Above all,he has taught me the love of God.One of his favourites sayings is "What I don't have,I don't need"
Sincerely, I shudder each time I think about how miserable life would have been without the instructions and blessings of God's servant.
He is my Pastor,spiritual father,role model and mentor.I join the Full Life family and his numerous other children in various denominations across the World to wish him more grace,impact and stamina as he keeps reaching out to a needy World.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA.
