Standing with Brothers in Christ

On the 31st of January 2022, I received a call from a brother and a friend concerning his family situation. It was personal and he felt good to confied with me as Christian brother and friend for prayer support. He narrated the matter and I took it to heart to sincerely care for my brother and his wife. I fellowshiped with him the fundamental need for contacting the Lord in prayer and receive His life daily through the word of God. Based on this basic foundation I fellowshiped with him that the Christian life has to be developed further day by day unto full maturity.

I took this call as from the Lord and decided to pray for my brother and his wife. In addition, I have also made arrangement for free Rhema literature to be distributed among the believers in the Army battalion  where he has been posted. When he confirmed the receipt of these books, his wife was also admitted in a clinic for a treatment. I let him know that I have been standing with him in prayer. May the Lord gain my brother and sister for His testimony. 

Another brother also called to fellowship last Saturday on a seemingly better opportunity that came up in his professional career. My only fellowship was to consider before the Lord in prayer and fellowship with his wife and follow the Lord’s inner leading by life and peace. 

“For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the spirit is life and peace.” (Romans 8:6, RecVer)

I even warned him not to be guided by better job status and pay scale. Only God knows what is best. Besides, I also mentioned to him that this "opportunity" is allowed by the Lord so that he can learn to bring it before the Lord in prayer and follow the Lord’s leading. Whether he stays in the same job or catch this new opportunity, it must be done so with the Lord’s leading and, in the process, experience Christ and gain Chirst. This will strengthen his faith and sweeten his fellowship with the Lord. And with him too, I am standing in prayer.
