The lecture phase for my school has come to an end. My team and I are going to an extremely remote place called Vijaynagar in the state of Arunachal Pradesh (India). It is located on the borders of India and Burma. This place is so remote that there are no roads. We have to travel through the forest for 5 days to reach vijaynagar. I've never in my life spent even a day in the forest. I'm so excited. My team and I are making history. There has never been any missions trip to this place. Wow....I'm far beyond blessed to lead a team to this place. I'm expecting God to do far more greater things than ever before. The coolest thing is that you get to be a part of it just by praying for me.
This entire month God has been doing something in my life that I never knew I had in me. There were some things from my past that God is dealing with. I'm so glad He is fixing some internal wounds in me that I did not know I had it in me.
He has been constantly showing that He is the most perfect Father. Now I have a better and bigger revelation of Him as a father than ever before. The biggest thing that I'm learning now is to stop living on a foundation of works but learn to live on a foundation of grace. I know it might sound so simple but it is so profound. We live in a world where only by what you do, you will be recognized, appreciated,rewarded, valued and so on. I'm learning to walk like I'm the only thing that God ever cared about. Like I'm His son born of royal blood and Jesus the king of all powers is my elder brother. Even if I accomplish nothing I still carry this honor. I always knew this in my head but to live like this day after day is pretty difficult.
I really felt like the Lord was training me and preparing me for my outreach.
I don't know how you might feel reading about us going to Vijaynagar but I want to make it very clear. Guys.... This is a big deal. "My team and I are making history". Just imagine... We are about to take Jesus to this place for the first time ever..."" Unbelievable "" This is what I was born for. Who would have ever thought that Tamil will be a part of this history making team. I am so honored because I carry the highest privilege of taking Jesus to a place for the first time ever.
Ever time I think of my outreach I feel like my team and I are like...Frodo and Sam on our quest to destroy the ring. We will be literally taking cooking vessels with us to cook in the forest for 5 days and nights....Wow...I can really imagine myself in the fellowship of the ring. You guys are riders of Rohan. Stand with us in battle by praying for us. "" To king and glory"".
Prayer points:
Pray for my faith to increase. I want a super natural revelation of Jesus and grow more deeper and stronger in Him.
I need wisdom on how to lead and disciple my students.
Please pray for protection and good health over all my team members.
We are going against the powers of the enemy. He is not pleased with the gospel being reached to Vijaynagar that is why we staffs and leaders are facing lots of spiritual attacks. Please pray that we would be strong specifically our students.
Pray that God will provide all that we need as we serve Him faithful. We live by faith. My team has no financial support so please pray that we will meet all our needs.
Thanks again for your support and encouragement.
Love,
Tamil Alagan
