Again in Hyderabad, I enjoyed a week stay after a longhaul at Bengaluru Airport due to flight delays and cancellations. The visit this time to Hyderabad hit a turbulence. Due to sleepless nights, I could barely be attentive on the first day of the fellowship. However, after a good night sleep, I enjoyed the three days fellowship with a brother. During this fellowship, the Lord worked on me and certain veils were lifted, which I could only experience and not narrate.
Three days of Serving Ones Training (SOT) followed suit. Message after message, I was richly supplied again on my need to be a vessel unto honor by the empowering grace of God in the one ministry unto the building up of the Body of Christ. I was richly nourished and cherished. The Lord blessed the ministry of the word. And on the last day, I could also share the crucial points of the Lord’s speaking as my portion to the saints as the concluding words along with few other brothers. Inwardly and outwardly, I could sense the Lord’s hand following His words. The depth of the Lord’s work within me during these few days of fellowship was unfathomable. I may recall these fews days and may rightly term it as as the Lord’s intensified training.
During the training too, I had a time of prayer and fellowship with a brother, a mutual shepherding, in addition to meeting some saints that was truly needed; three of them were just married, one about to get married, and another two with marital issues. To a brother, I sent a message of Bible verses warning him about divorce which the Lord hate after encouraging him to pray that the Lord would recover His marriage.
After the training, I had a day to settle materials for proofreading works to be held in Bengaluru this year which was also my official duty.
As we enjoyed a lunch lovefeast at a brother's home, the Lord burdened me to spend time with two families, two mothers, and three sisters in school, college, and about to take up a job. The burden released was on helping them in three things I shared with my own testimony on each burden. First, the daily reading of the Bible, second daily personal prayer, and third seeking the perfect will of the Lord for everything in our Christian life.
I do believe that was the timely word for all the sisters, both mothers and daughters. Then, I received a message from my wife about my daughter's matriculation board exam result. As per her skill and interest, she scored 92% in English Language and Literature. That was amazing! Other subjects were above average and good enough as she would not purse those hereafter.
Then, a brother and I left for Kurnool to embark on a week-long ministry literature journey to Rayalaseema (Andhra Pradesh).
That was a fruitful visit to Hyderabad one more time. Thank You Lord for Your grace.
