Brothers Blending

A resumption of the brothers blending and fellowship among the local churches in North India was indeed a glorious one. This part of the country needs more blending and building up among the saints, especially among the brothers. It was also very significant that many brothers who are comparatively young began to participate. The Lord is beginning to do new things with the turn of the age.

We started our blending in a living way of singing "Oh what a life!" in Hindi a couple of times, with prayers being offered up and pray-reading verses and outlines of a message on "Divine Fellowship" , then brothers fellowshiped on some crucial matters on propagation and shepherding the saints. Through the fellowship light began to dawn on us. And indeed it was a glorious beginning. 

Decades have gone by, yet still a thorough gospelization has not yet been done. And much less, the recovery of the Lord's heart's desire among the believers are yet to take place. Besides, there seems to be a fierce spiritual battle taking place, and saints are being attacked in many angles. May the Lord turn all these situations the saints are facing into sanctifying fire to purify them and equip them for the building work of God. 

Even in my own locality, I personally experience the heat wave of the enemy's subtle attacks. Perhaps, his time is near destruction and he would not rest. Perhaps, we are also becoming more desperate and troubled him further. But the solid truth is, the Lord is the Lord and He will recovery a strong testimony in the northern part of India. Come what may, the Lord is with us and we are joined to the Lord, we are one spirit with the Lord (1 Cor. 67:17). 

The age of individualistic spirituality is gone, today we are in the Body, and the age is the age of building up of the Body of Christ. More building is needed for the Lord to do a thorough work in this dry and barren land. So is the Lord recovering the Body-life in reality among the churches. All building works must be done in the Body, with the Body for the Body, of which Christ is the Head. This brothers blending is a key point for the Lord to step further on.

Lord blend us more in Your Body for Your Body.
