Brother's Perfecting Fellowship

Two weeks ago, an elderly brother whom the Lord has anointed especially to perfect us, visited us in Gurugram again. We enjoyed two days of fellowshipping with. These two days were of immense blessing to me, and I believe to all the brothers too who were in the fellowship.

Crucial items of fellowship were:

The oneness of the Triune God to be wrought into us to become our oneness.

How much we can minister depends on how much Christ is ministered to us.

All the saints, especially the young ones, must be brought into their rightful position and function as much as, and as soon as, possibsle.

Our perfecting also depends on how much we serve; many are not perfected because they don't serve adequately. Therefore, bring all the saints into service wherever they can fucntion best.

We need eyes and wisdom to bring brothers into their righful function; by doing this, we are only confirming what the Holy Spirit has done in them. At the same time, some may need to be left in the wilderness as the Lord has to still work on them, even dsiciplining them. We need to discern between the two.

We must bring in all those who have the heart to serve the Lord. That is the best way to perfect them and reocver their function and service.

One of the crucial spiritual functions of the church is to speak forth the word of God guided by the ministry. No one can really speak the word unless being led by the Holy Spirit. 

1 Corinthians12:3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking in the Spirit of God says, Jesus is accursed; and no one can say, Jesus is Lord! except in the Holy Spirit.14:3 But he who prophesies speaks building up and encouragement and consolation to men. 14:4 He who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but he who prophesies builds up the church.

A Christian work is the overflow of a Christian life; the message that a Messenger speaks must be the message that he lives. To speak Christ, we must be Christ, one with Christ. To be thus, Christ must be worked upon and into us day by day. The degree of Christ being ministered is the same degree as that of Christ being worked into the minister.

Unless God worked on us wonderfully and marvelously,  God cannot work through us wonderfully and marvelously. Never make your own choice in anything, if you faith, the Lord will make the best choice for you.

Blessing is upon the right people who have been worked on by the Lord.

To know someone needs discernment, for disceernment, growth in life is needed.

The perfecting of the young ones depends upon our perfecting.

These are some points of fellowship. Other practical points are confirmation of what has been in my heart and I have been practicing it:

The practice of praying for the new ones whom the Lord has burdened me and thereby shepherding them in a way of praying with them, praying for them, and sending them messages for them to study in a regular basis.  Another major item is, praying for one another, family by family. Every family praying everyday, and praying for one another. In this way, all the saints will be prayed for and all the saints will be praying. This will result in genuine revival. Gradually, the Lord has been leading us to bring these to be the regular practice of the church.

What a blessing to be able to fellowship with such a brother! The Lord has perfected many brothers. Today, we are learning from them as our pattern, and we are also the direct beneficiaries. All these confirm that we are indeed in the Lord's recovery and we are His recovery. Praise the Lord for the brother's perfecting fellowship!
