He survived the hangman

There was a deafening sound of joy and jubilation as the Judge ruled that Sam should be acquitted. In disbelief Sam fainted in the dock where he was, he had survived the hangman! Sam says that Being on death row for seven years is not something easy, even when you make an appeal like he did, you cannot really be certain of the future, its only God the redeemer who can dedicate one’s future according to Sam. This is because there are people in there who are so rich but on death row, but even their money cannot save them. Even when you are innocent its not a sure deal that you can be acquitted.

One day while visiting the condemn section in Luzira prison; a man welcomed us by saying, “Welcome to the grave where there are men who are dead but can talk.” So you can tell the kind of place Sam has been living in., even the stench of death is heavy in there!.
Events unfolded for him when he was mistaken to have been involved in a highway robbery and murder, the actual killers took off and he was destined to pay for their sins.
Thank God justice prevailed and he was let go home and be with his family, he has been home for a month now.

Sam is one of the beneficiaries of our programme, we have been and will continue to contribute towards the school fees for his three children .Beginning a new life may not be easy for him; he needs a lot of help to start again. We pray the Lord helps him.

Every day I am learning not to take my freedom for granted, I wake up and fall on my knees and thank God for the opportunity he has given me to see the blue sky as a free man and most importantly because God himself has set me free.
There is greater joy if one is released and set free from eternal damnation that faces people who will not be among the saints as they march to glory.

Sam is a changed man, converted and born again, to him this is important. This helps us to understand that it is much more important to be set free in God’s court than in an earthly court.
