Thank you so much for praying for me. I had an amazing adventure ministering with the people of Kurungkumey in Arunachal Pradesh and the Misin tribe in Assam. Leading a of team five young girls was not easy. Being a leader was never on my mind. I guess the lord is equipping me for something big. Jesus gave me an opportunity to preach and teach to many, many people. I never thought that I would be in a place where God would use such a young guy like me to preach and teach to many elders, pastors, and teachers.

Kurungkumey is a new district in Arunachal Pradesh and the Lord called us to go minister in this place but my team did not have any open doors to go to this place and we ended up going to a very remote place in the state of Assam. The day that we left to go to Assam, my leader called me and said that there was a big land slide on the road to Kurungkumey. The Lord saved us from that landslide. If I had traveled to Kurungkumey, then I don’t know where I would be right now.

On the outreach phase I had learned so much. All I can say is that I’m craving for Jesus more and more. One of the biggest things that the Lord is teaching me is to not only understand that I have been given much and much is expected of me but to value it also. This is a simple truth that I always knew growing up in K-Home. Time after time Tammyma would always remind me that “I am blessed to be a blessing to others.”  I always knew this in my head but now I’m living it out. To know something is one thing but to experience it is completely a different thing. That’s where I am in my spiritual growth in Christ Jesus.  Currently I’m studying the life of Elisha and how he inherited a double portion of the blessings of Elijah. My generation should exceed the previous generation. In simple terms my generation should go twice as far as Tammyma’s generation. I was so blessed when Jonathan uncle once said to me “Tamil, I’m running the race as hard as I can but my greatest joy will be the day when I see you run ahead of me.” These words literally put me to tears. I just wonder how in the world would I ever exceed the very ones who disciple me. The days are getting darker and darker and it is so much more difficult to live a righteous life in this modern age. In the outreach Jesus thought me a life learning lesson. The light always shines brighter in the darkest of places so is Christ found in the darkest of places. His heart is always there searching for the lost. Why would Jesus say I came to seek and save the lost? The lost are always found in the dark. I don’t want to miss out on Jesus. Where ever Jesus is, I want to be there also.

An amazing miracle happened during the outreach and I want to share it with you. A man lay paralyzed in a church unable to do anything. People called us to pray for him but before that my team and I were outside the church worshiping and praying for the large crowd that had gathered to watch what we were doing.  Some of the young people from the crowd were laughing at us and it really discouraged my team members. Later we went into the church to pray for the paralyzed man. My entire team cried out to Jesus with all our hearts. I still remember that moment very clearly. While praying I opened my eyes and I saw little Samaria the youngest in my team (15 year old) weeping and crying out the name of Jesus over and over with a guitar in her hand. Two of my other students who were 16 and 17 years were crying with all their heart asking Jesus for a miracle. Lastly the other two girls who are staffing with me were to my left and right side on their knees pouring oil on the man’s leg and claiming for a miracle. That moment was so precious to me. Ten to fifteen minutes later the man slowly stood up and moments later he started walking and walking and did not stop. He had suffered for two years but when we prayed God healed him. I had full faith that God would heal him but honestly speaking I did not see the miracle coming. I was extremely shocked and overwhelmed when it came. My entire team was weeping with joy. I’m sure we all have those moments in life where we pray for things to happen, have full faith and even expect for the miracle to happen. And when it does happen you just feel extremely overwhelmed that you don’t even know how to react and all you can do is weep and weep with tears of joy. I was in such a state.

There are so many things that the Lord had, and is doing in my life. The kingdom of God is advancing forcefully and forceful men take hold of it. Lastly I want to throw out a challenge to all those living in my generation. The older generation had their share of the kingdom but if we don’t live our lives to the fullest then surely those that are forceful in the previous generation will take hold of the kingdom. They are in for round two.... we need to work harder.
