I was ambivalent about the road to Mangaung because there were unique considerations. Could Jacob Zuma be ousted? It seemed very possible since he was behind the ousting of Thabo Mbeki in 2008. Knowing the principle of "what you sow is what you reap" gave me some apprehension about Jacob Zuma retaining his presidential seat.
On the other hand I thought, Zuma was a prophetic placement of the Father as far as I know. The word was clear. God has chosen a foolish vessel to confound the wise and bring our nation closer to His purposes.
I was glad with the outcome and results of Mangaung. It made perfect sense. I can see the hand of the Father in this. Jacob Zuma and his camp had won. Zuma will continue the work God had started in him and he will be a catalyst for the purposes of God in our nation.
Interestingly, towards the latter part of his first term, some interesting develpoments took place. Zuma dramatically reshuffled his cabinet by removing some of his scandalous comrade-ministers. Also Julius Malema was disciplined and expelled from the ANC altogether. This is what we longed to see from our president ever since he took office. This is the kind of president South Africa needed.
Then came Mangaung. Mangaung threatened Zuma's position. However, not that Mangaung is behind us we can already see that powerful God-decisions have been made. For example, the ANC has decided not to privatize mines in South Africa. This breathes a big sigh of relief for our country's economy and foreign investment.
Something very prophetic took place in Mangaung. Let me explain. In the recent years many, including Dr Jonathan David, a prolific prophet and apostle from Malaysia, have prophesied that God will supernaturally bring an end to racial division, racial tension and violence. God promised that He would shut the mouths of the proponents of racial tension and division in this nation. Julius Malema was a major role player and proponent of racial tension in our nation. He supported Kalema Motlanthe's campaign for the presidency. Kalema in return was a defender of Julius Malema.
This is why God ensured that Kalema Motlanthe not only lost his campaign for the presidency but also that he be removed from the political structures of our nation altogether. He has suffered the same faith as Julius Malema.
If Kalema had come into power, we can be certain that Julius Malema would have been reinstated as a member of the ANC not long after. Kalema's regime would have given leverage to unnecessary racial provocation, conflict and tension in our nations. God could not allow this!
