National Brothers Fellowship: Hyderabad

For the perfecting of the saints unto the work of the ministry, unto the building up of the Body of Christ. Ephesians 4:12, RecVer

After twenty years of face to face fellowship with a senior and matured brother in the church life, this time I again attended a time of fellowship with the same brother though online. A few months ago, things have changed drastically in our country and he could not physically come to be with us. Nevertheless, we made use of the online facilty available. Thanks to the technology used properly for the Lord’s move.

For five and a half days, we had sessions after sessions felleoshipping on the word of God in Ephesians 4. Word by word, phrase by phrase, and verse by verse, the Lord unveiled His heart's desire concerning the building up of His Body, the church, through the necessary dealings and proper humanity in diligently keeping the oneness the Lord so desired snd prayed for, through His Spirit who Has been given to us already. Though this portion of the Bible is one of the most difficult prophesy to fulfill, it is being fulfilled at the present time with the help of the ministry of the word through the minister of the age. Though Satan's futile attempts seemed to disrupt the oneness of the Body, the Lord nevertheless is gradually building His church, His Body. For His prophesy will always come to pass.

And I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18, RecVer

Many brothers also contributed to the fellowship in a way of sharing what they have learnt from the Lord. Some testifed of their experiences based on what were fellowshiped, some asked questions, some echoed the sharings, and some confirmed through the word the burden the Lord released through the fellowship. 

Despite the busy schedule, five sessions everyday, I still could enjoy my time with the Lord in prayer and my daily reading of the Bible during the breaks. I also got to fellowship some important matters with the brothers related to the literature service and our serving ones, along with the present burden for the Recovery Version translation project. 

This gathering at the national level was a wonderful time of blending and fellowship for the Lord’s testimony in His recovery and for His going on in this country. 

Praise the Lord for the fellowship in the Body! Praise the Lord for His move in our country!
