Today, the 30th August 2026, as the ministry literature distribution in Rayalaseema region in Andhra Pradesh was about to begin, we enjoyed a one day blending meeting of the churches in this region. The initial plan was for three local churches, however, more saints from other localities also wanted to join. Therefore, about 150 saints from seven localities blended together in sweet oneness and one accord!
As the brother requested me to minister the word, I looked to the Lord for His timely anointed word. The Lord spoke based on the need to see the vision of the age in Proverbs 29:18.
Proverbs 29:18 RecVerWhere there is no vision, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.
We traced the vision of the age in the Bible. The work that God did at a particular age from the time of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Enoch, and Noah in the Old Testament, and the work God carried out in the four Gospels through the Lord Jesus Christ, and from the time of the book of Acts till today, what God has been doing in this age; the building up of the Body of Christ.
To build up the Body of Christ, the necessary requirement for the believers is to be dealt with in the natural man so that the humanity of Jesus can be lived out, and the way for such a living of Christ was ministered. Using the life of Job and Moses, the way to be dealt with by God until we realise we are nothing and good for nothing, arrive at our end so that God can have a new beginning, and be gained by God for the building up of the Body of Christ were ministered. An emphasis on Ephesians 4:1-3; 7-10, 11-12 for a walk worthy of our calling with the humanity of Jesus through the experiences of the death and resurrection of Jesus was also ministered. Thus, the burden the Lord anointed was ministered. Afterwhich, many saints prophesied on how the Lord showed them the vision and the way to fulfill the vision in preparing their persons through the experiences of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ for the building up of the Body of Christ.
We all enjoyed the Lord's timely speaking for His move in Badvel and the surrounding localities.
The blending meeting was held in a newly constructed meeting hall cum house built by a brother and his wife who are both serving in government jobs. They built the house out of the God blessed provisions. This itself is a testimony of their love and offering for Christ and His Church.
After the meeting, five housewives who were seeking to know God came requesting for prayer. The Lord led me to preach the gospel to them instead, led them to believe into the Lord Jesus and receive the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal God and Savior. Then, as requested, I also prayed for their experiences of salvation and growth in life and their household salvation.
Later, a brother, touched by the Lord’s speaking today wanted to be baptised. After reviewing the Scriptures on seven important significances of baptism, he was baptised!
Finally, we had a time of gospel preaching and shepherding meeting with a family.
Thus, the day concluded with me spending time reading Life-study on Revelation with the saints in my locality, Gurugram, and a time of prayer with my son and daughter and enjoying their sharings of what they shared today in the church meeting.
Praise the Lord for this day, a day filled with the ministry of the word, gospel preaching, baptism, prayers, sharing, and shepherding! Hallelujah!
