Indeed the Apostle had died already, people started crying and morning,It came to one day and a half, The morning of the second day people started to collect money to buy the coffin,it was around 11 o’clock that God brought back to life Apostle Herbert Kuuku.According to his words when he was asked he said he was in a beautiful world where he desired to stay, he said he was told one word that be humble and you will be used by the Almighty God.
From that day his life changed, he accepted Jesus Christ as his saviour and every time he would be so quiet and one would hear him so active when it came to prayer time. Many people started to marvel at the way he did his things and conducted himself, he used to make very wise statements and when ever he would speak something, people would see it happen.
