A missionary voice

 
It looks like all doors were shut and no open door seems to be visible in our eyes for the planned youth camp which is going to be organized. We are four people engaged actively to stand up for god to turn the souls to god besides that our ministry is SOUL TURN. Half way through the run on this juncture we could visualize that Satan might be feeling happy about the present situation of closed doors; however the interesting part is Satan himself doesn't know that his plans are known to us as GOD is expecting us to step in faith though no doors were opened. Behold he has kept the door open and no one can shut.

He calls the one as if it exists- Roman4:17b- through the eyes of faith we see open doors

Neither by might nor by strength but by my spirit says the lord of host to Zerubbael

I’ve been reminded of the four vessels mightily used by god when i was having a daily devotional study of the books Ezra and Zechariah;
Joshua
Zerubabael
Zachariah
Ezra
and
Nehemiah too later..... So i decided to sketch this letter to my fellow brothers as


We walk by faith not by sight......... let’s put all our strength to accomplish this youth camp and bring many drowned souls back to GOD...

When Arun and myself was in Ranchi mission field as a full time missionary, i remember the magnificent days which we spent for Lord. Our whole life body, mind, spirit everything was spent to lord alone. I used to think at that time, if i would have money in my hand i can conduct youth camps one after the other to transform all the youth to Christ. I used to think as;

If i would have money i can do this

If i would have money i can do this. but not completely on the mind set of money
 
i knew it should be accomplished by faith, but the fact on which am insisting you is to turn back and check our mind set/attitude towards the earnings of our income. Where have we set it to focus on the money? At times we used to think alike worldly people to save money for ourselves (
inner voice says: be wise enough in managing all). Of course when i was a missionary i didn’t had a single point of intention to save money at any circumstances. (though like a passing clouds I think alike of saving money but never done, up-until this time for other cause) Of course Paul writes at one stage to save money but the crucial fact is the driving force behind Paul which made him to do that. Take a moment and think for a while now............

Our consciences will precisely answer the present condition of our state?
 
So where to set our mind on?
Set your mind on things above and not on earth. Col 3:2.

 
"
Faith is risk taking" as i remember Dannie bro always say this and i haven't met a single person alike personally in Tamilnadu who minister to god. Probably some will be there but didn't get a chance to meet.i wonder still why we forget all the times about this true fact though we knew it better, later i discovered it is because we are in the world and we don’t see anyone who is walking in faith to impact and influence us whereas we need to take the step courageously and start influencing others. But for sure there will be many who will scoff us at the way we live because no one knows the way we are taking and understood Jesus. The first scoffing would start from friends, family, relatives & servant of god too. .... If you belonged to the world, it would love your as its own. As it chosen you out of the world that is why the world hates you- jn15:19.

Be on guard and protect your heart.

Eventually my agony in Christ has been vented out !!!!

Hopefully we all stepped on faith (Wilson, Arun, Ranjan & jones) and foreseeing the latter rains in youth camp.
