Living Christian Fellowship
Today we were invited to join the covenant community to worship at the Rotary Club hall in Jaipur. At least 130 beautiful people were together to celebrate the Lord Jesus Christ and his salvation. It was a time of great joy of singing and dancing in the presence of God as a bunch of young people led us in worship. A lady visiting for the first time was overwhelmed by the expressions of joy. She had never seen such joy before! She told me herself and I appreciated her testimony very much.
During the time of worship people brought several encouraging prophecies and visions. It was about multitudes of people turning to God, that people in bondage would be set free, that God would let his light shine through his people and dispel the darkness, that the house of God was a house of bread for the hungry to come and eat freely.
After the worship many people came forward to tell of the goodness the God towards them during last week. Some had been protected in the midst of traffic accidents, some had been healed from various diseases and some had seen people set free from demon oppression. A little girl, at the age of eight I guess, blessed me a lot as she was so radiant of joy and thankfulness as she gave thanks to the Lord for his help at school. She was so beautiful in her happy gratitude, just to see and hear her was a great blessing.
There was a simple message delivered from the Prophet Zechariah on the servant of the Lord, the Branch, building the temple of God and branching out from among them. That there would be the double anointing of a royal priesthood that would enable them to proclaim the gospel of the Kingdom in great power demonstrations and give instruction from God to the people. Signs and wonders would follow them and people would come from many people groups ask to be taught the way of God.
All this would happen to them as they would put their minds to a life of responsive obedience to the voice of God, and as they invited people to their homes to share their peace and prosperity with them.
After this message a lot of people asked for prayer and we heard several testimonies of people being constantly healed from different kinds of pains in their bodies.
At the end of the gathering I had a great surprise! Brenda had brought a big birthday cake and everyone was invited to a pre-celebration of my upcoming birthday just before Christmas. This was totally unexpected! The people even collected a love-offering for Solveig and myself! What a blessed surprise! These people were really rich in love! I have never seen anything like it before!
