At the end of last year, 2022, one night while praying in the Spirit and waiting upon the Lord, I had an impression that the Lord was directing us to go to major cities of our country, to hold city-wide meetings, primarily to teach His Word.
Besides the salvation of the lost, it was clear to my heart that the purpose was also to minister to the Believers, that they may enjoy in Christ Jesus, the abundance and victory in all areas of life.
To fulfil this ministry, the Lord has been graciously opening doors in amazing ways, connecting us with the right people, Pastors and leaders who sincerely love the Lord and selflessly seek the well-being of the Body of Christ.
After our first city-wide Festival in Nagpur, earlier this year, the Lord in His mercy has enabled us to conduct yet another very fruitful meeting from the 9th - 11th October in Chandigarh, the capital of the north-Indian states of Punjab and Haryana.
Ps James Sidhu, a well-respected local Pastor, whose heart the Lord had opened to cooperate with us, liaised with the Churches in the city, encouraging and persuading the Pastors and the Congregations to participate in the three-night meeting.
Having obtained mercy of the Lord to faithfully preach His Word by the Holy Spirit, I taught and preached the Word of Christ, all three nights.
The Lord in His mercy, has done many wonderful things for His people, during the Chandigarh Festival. There's a testimony in particular that I'd like to share with you. Sitting in the first row, as the choir was singing on the last night of the meeting, I noticed a young girl being brought to the front and laid on the floor, before the stage. She lay there writhing in agonizing pain, curling in and out uncontrollably. It was time for me to minister the Word of God. The volunteers carried her out of the auditorium.
I finished preaching and got down to the front of the stage to pray for all who desired personal prayer according to the Word of God, by the laying on of hands.
The girl was brought back into the auditorium in the same condition. It was heart-wrenching to see her contorting and screaming in pain. After I finished praying for everyone in the line, I requested the Pastors who were present there to gather around the girl and seek the mercies of the Lord for her healing.
I wanted to know how long the girl had been in that condition. She was accompanied by her mother and her uncle. The family was Nepali and could hardly understand Hindi. The Uncle who heard about our meeting, took the mother and the girl and travelled a great distance to get to Chandigarh. He said that she'd been suffering that way for fifteen days. He came with a great expectation to receive healing from the Lord for his dear niece.
I squatted down by her side. While the Pastors and others standing there were praying and agreeing according to Matthew 18:18, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I bound the spirit behind that condition and loosed the girl for the control of the devil. As we all agreed and united our faith to receive healing for that precious girl, I laid my hand on her in the Name of the Lord Jesus and I knew that the Lord had touched Her.
In less than a couple of minutes, the girl was on her knees praying and thanking the Lord, completely made whole! Hallelujah!
Our hearts were filled with awe and deep thankfulness as we've eye-witnessed the power of the great love and compassion of our living Lord Jesus Christ. As in the Bible, He healed the sick, and those who were oppressed by the devil. All glory, praise and thanks be to our wonderful Lord Jesus Christ alone forever!
I'm eternally grateful for all the prayers, love, whole-hearted support and generosity of our Church and Friends who stand together with us.
I thankfully appreciate the relentless assistance of my team - Vinay, Ramesh and Praveen, who travel with me.
I thank the Lord for the anointed worship ministry of Rev Gopal Masih and his dear family; and all the love, oneness in Spirit and priceless support we always receive from them.
Now thanks be unto God, Who always causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the fragrance of his knowledge by us in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14
As we earnestly pray and seek the Lord's direction for our next assignment, I thank you once again for your partnership in the ministry that the Lord has trusted us with. The Lord Jesus Christ bless you richly!
Eternally in Christ Jesus
Ps Prabhu Nandan
