God's Promise

Psalm 2:8   

Ask of Me, 

And I will give the nations as Your inheritance 

And the limits of the earth as Your possession.

This is the promise of God during my time with Him a week ago. My impromptu reply to the Lord's promise was, North India and North East India! These are the two regions that the Lord implanted His burden into my heart. Not mine, but His. And time and again, the Lord proved to me that my calling and service on the gospel preaching, shepherding and perfecting is for these two regions. Though at the moment I seem to confront a stiff opposition from the enemy without, but my burden is nevertheless lightened, but much more strengthened by the day.

At times, during my time with the Lord, the burden within me was so strong that I told the Lord that by His grace I am willing to be martyred. Only if He grants this special mercy, that will be an honor, and in His absolute sovereignty for His glory. Despite the outward ambiance of spiritual drought, dryness and deadness, the aura within is complete peace, joy and love for the people of these regions. Though vivid fruits may not have been manifested as yet, still the seed of the divine life have been sown to quite a number of the local ones; many have believed into Jesus Christ, some have been baptised, few have come to the church life, and to my faith and hope, many are awaiting the free gift of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Even to this regard, the Lord has been working on me and my family to adapt to the local lifestyle, language and living. In fact, many legal documents pertaining to me and my family are as per the law of this land. And I am happy about it. I love the people and the land. And I am mingling with the locals, some of them are now my dear brothers in Christ with whom I can pray and fellowship with, even on a daily basis. What a joy it is to be in the will of the Lord! And what He asked me of and what I asked from Him, is all in conformity to His will for me and my family.

Besides, in my dealing with the people of these regions, the Lord graces me His special blessing and anointing. Every time I am in fellowship or in contact with the people, there always is s special grace to carry out what was intended to. For this is, indeed, the sure promise of the Lord, in burden, in vision and in goal, I have asked of the Lord, these regions as the "nation" for His inheritance.

God asked of me to ask of Him, and so I asked for "the gospelization, the truthization and churchization of the North India and the North East India." 

Lord, may Your will be done!
