Fellowship : By All Means

Where there is a will, there is a way. Very much true even in spiritual pursuit. In this age where technology is at its peak, they must be utilized for all good cause. Recently, I have found WhatsApp a very good tool for fellowship with fellow believers spread across the country. Now and then, as the Lord leads, I would post some Bible verses and some light from the word of God. And I believe many have been blessed as they acknowledged it by reply chat.   

One such group is a one that connects many brothers and sisters of a particular state the Lord burdened me for, since a couple of years ago. Whenever I visited that city, I enjoyed the presence of God so much, especially the fellowship with the believers there who took the stand as a local church in that city. Now we are connected via this chat group. Now and then reading and posting gives me the same enjoyment as in fellowship face to face, in person, few years ago. What encouraged me most was the saints, especially the sisters' function in actively posting their fresh enjoyment of the Lord, mostly with strong Biblical verses to support their experiences. The love for the Lord and His word is growing in spite of the growing evil, technology has also brought in. This is like Moses catching the rod turned snake by its tail to make it a snake turned rod for carry out God's commission. The world is literally in a fingertip; use it or misuse it, it all depends on the person who uses it.

Besides technology, fellowshipping face to face in person gave me immense pleasure too. Today the Lord graced me with two important fellowships with two brothers at different times. Both have similar case going on, relating to their personal lives, their work and most importantly their marriage as they are aging a double score. To both the principle remains the same; to have a proper heart towards the Lord and love Him above all, to spend time in the word and in prayer and be in fellowship of the Body. And that everything depends on God's blessings and God's blessings depends on what kind of person we are. Once our heart is proper and our person is set right, God's blessings in every realm will be bestowed. Then we prayed together for a fresh and new beginning in our Christian life in the church life. Fellowship opens many ways....

So fellowship, and be in fellowship by all means. Via phone, via mail or via chat group. Be in fellowship with the Lord vertically and also be in fellowship with the saints horizontally. Yes, fellowship by all means.
