      DEDICATION

      Idedicate this work to my local church @Dabar Word Centre. I love being your pastor and you are such a blessing to me. To all my sons in the faith, and all my followers and partners; may you be blessed by this teaching.

      PREFACE

      Since I was a teenager , I have always been fascinated with the Old Testament. I fell in love with subjects like the feasts of the Jews, the tabernacle of Moses, Melchizedek, and of course, Zion. As a young Christian I always asked the difficult questions that no one around me was asking to my knowledge.

      The only sermon I remember from my father in the faith apostle Mandlenkhosi Simelane that stuck with me was on the tabernacle of Moses. I spent hours daily reading the five books of the Torah and the more I read the more confused I got. I always asked myself, How could anyone teach from these books?  

      I understood early in my Christian Walk that one cannot understand the New Testament until one is familiar with the Old. So, I spent more time studying the Old Testament. For years no one fed my fascination with the Torah. Months after I was saved, I followed my mom to South Africa. It was a bit tough being a baby Christian at Boekenhouthoek, especially because I was a curious young man. At the time no church helped me with this, unfortunately.

      Granted, there were men I discussed the scriptures with, men like apostle David Mthombeni and his brother Sizani. We were crazy about the scriptures back then and we were all not yet pastors of anything. However, I always had a hunger inside of me and unfortunately, I couldn't reach out to my then father Dr Simelane. I so wished he could finish what he started with me. Like a loner I went into long hour prayers, and Bible study. While everyone was fascinated with Word of Faith teachings on healing and prosperity from the likes of Kenneth Copeland and his brethren, I was hungry for something more, something deeper. That hunger would soon be temporarily satisfied by the ministry of pastor Paula White. Her approach to the scriptures was uniquely amazing, not to mention that she could go for hours without running out.

      That was short-lived because my hunger was growing fast every day. Therefore, every servant of God I came across, be it bishop Jakes or Noel Jones or Pastor Chris Oyakhilome or Bishop Thabo Masenya fed me for a while and then could not feed me anymore. All these generals are very good at what they do yet God had not given them a message for me, a message that would feed or confirm what I was feeling.

      Whilst in Youth Aflame Bible College under bishop TA Masenya I came across some sermons; one by apostle Maxwell Ramashia and the other by apostle Mangaliso. Just like that I was hooked. This was the missing piece. Apostle Ramashia confirmed that I was not crazy for my obsession with typology. I must admit, however, that at the time the apostle’s message and style was a bit heavy even for me [who was crazy about the Old Testament].

      Therefore, one day in the year 2007 I was invited to attend a conference at Prophet Themba Ndlovu’s church with two of my brothers, Apostle Mpho Matlala and Apostle Sayco Nkadimeng. There I met a man by the name of Vincent Kobane. This apostle unlocked in me the dimension I needed to become who you see today. After hearing this man of God, I went back to my handwritten notes and disposed of them. I started afresh. I had now found what was missing all along. My eyes were now wide open, and I was able to see dimensions in the spirit that were formerly closed to me.

      Soon after that I understood apostle Max with clarity. In the year 2006 before I left for Bible School, I had started to write a book titled Zion. Apostle Kobane happened to come into my life when this work was still at its pediatric stage. The revelation was still fresh, and he unleashed the waters I needed to flow. I celebrate the apostle, and Dr Sagie Govender for their influence on how I see the scriptures.

      This is in fact the first book I wrote. I delayed it because I wanted to perfect it since my heart is closer to it than other projects I have done in the past. I have many memories attached to this work. It means the world to me that I was finally able to publish this work after so many years of writing and preaching on the subject. Some even concluded that my message was Zion. However, I’d love to think that the overall message the Lord has given me can be summed up in these two phrases: apostolic empowerment and prophetic intelligence.

      ZION IS A VOCATION

      There are three levels in life, viz. inheritance, career, and vocation. Inheritance is what was passed down to us by our predecessors to help us build smoother. Inheritance allows the son to build on top of what the father leaves. This manuscript is an inheritance for the children of God to help them build having received all the tools they need for building accurately and excellently.

      Accurate and excellent builders do not come from nowhere. Such a level of building is not a coincidence. It comes because of what the former generation has laid as a foundation.

      The second level is career. Career is what one does for a living; what they trained for to have a stable financial income. We live in a time where everyone is career driven. This career mentality has even entered the house of God and by so doing caused many to adapt Babylonian patterns of building. In chapter eighteen I talk about the difference between Babylonian building patterns and Zion building patterns.

      Nowadays many preachers treat the work of God as a career, something to make a good living from. Indeed, some people have made good careers out of preaching, yet they have transformed nothing, reformed no one, and have impacted or influenced none whatsoever.

      Today in many churches, pastors are teaching their followers to have good jobs, businesses, and their children to have good education. No one seems to care about the
