Indore, the city I had the burden to visit for the ministry of the owerd literatrue distribution for many years now, was finally visited. Though the initial plan was to visit the city and meet different Christian leaders for the introduction of the ministry literature, the Lord had the best plan in place. We knew nobody in this city at the very fist place. We only had the burden to visit this city. On the day we planned to visit the city, there was a one day seminar already planned a year ago by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association for a leasedership seminar. Our contacy in Ratlam introduced us to the key person of this seminar from whom we got a formal permission to exhibit the ministry literature.
The day we arrived the city we went straight to the venue of the seminar in a Roman Catholic premises. The key people already knew that we were coming and everything was arranged. We only set up the book table and exhibited the ministry books. The organiser, on seeing hte minstry books, requested a copy of all the English ministry books. And on a short while fellowhsip with him I felt that I should fellowship with him furhter. Therefore, after the exhibition, we visited him at his home for an afternoon fellowship.
Though we had a good exposrue to the Christian leaders in the city with the ministry books, my heart was on the brother who was the key organiser. As we went to visit him, I felt led by the Lord to witness to him and his family of how the Lord led me from my young days. The burden to share my testimony started when he introduced his son who was praying and considering his career. I picked up the burden to encourage him to seek the Lord's will and shared my testimony of how I souhg the Lord's will and how the Lord led me all these years. The Lord anointed the sharing so much so that I flowed out my experiences in a way of ministering life. After the testimony, he asked us if we could stay over and speak to the congregation online, which we readily obliged.
In the online meeting, we shared on God's plan and the need to come to the word and receive the Lord's word day by day. We felt the anointing of the Lord richly as we minstered the word. After the meeting, we had a dinner love feast with the family.
Thank the Lord, our burden for the city was released! The seeds have been sown and now may the Lord manifest in time through whom He would raise up His testimony.
Lord, bless Your move in Indore!
