Dear Brethren in Christ,
We have received a report from TEC Coordinator Pastor Joshua Gowda in India. This month’s Feeding Event in an unreached Hindu village in Punjab saw 270 Hindus believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. The very first service of the newborn Elijah Challenge Church took place the following Sunday morning. 160 new believers gathered to worship their Savior.
Please click on http://www.theelijahchallenge.org/Reports/India/17%20Uttam%20Nagar%20East,%20Astala,%20Delhi.htm to view the report and the color photos.
The harvest from these monthly Feeding Events has been amazing. When the Lord provides more funds for us, we can multiply the Feeding Events by training more teams to conduct them in different unreached villages.
Thank you for partnering with us, dear brethren.
I just received a message from Pastor Yohannes Matutis of Berlin, Germany with whom I have ministered in the past. He shared a vision that the Lord gave him just recently. I believe it is very relevant for these last days, and have reprinted it below. Two thousand years ago, Jesus warned us about “wolves.”
Matthew 7:15? “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. ?
21 Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. ?22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ ?23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’
These false prophets abound in the Church today. We must wake up and open our eyes.
“I saw a large pasture with very many sheep. All of a sudden, from
every direction and from all over, came wolves upon the herd, mixing
themselves amongst the sheep. Neither the shepherds nor the shepherd
dogs (of utmost importance) sounded any alarm.
They lay on the floor as if hypnotized.
There was just a bit of panic within the herd.
The sheep did notice that something was wrong, but they took no serious note
of what was happening. They just continued grazing in a relaxed manner.
The shepherds and the shepherd dogs on the other hand noticed nothing.
 
As I observed closely, I saw the wolves, which had fangs like
snakes in their mouths, tweak (pinch or prick) the sheep on their buttocks.
These twitched briefly, and then continued their relaxed grazing.
After a short while, the wolves ran from the herd, withdrawing themselves
again into the mountains, without having stolen a sheep or inflicted any
visible harm on them. 

On seeing all these things, I thought to myself. ‘This is not at all possible,
that wolves would come amongst sheep and not harm them. This is out of
character! Then as the wolves left the sheep, I saw all of a sudden the
leader of the wolf pack, together with his whole wolf followership on a high
cliff. It was like a great beast; a monster.
Then the wolves began to howl and yelp.
The shepherd, shepherd dogs and all the sheep were terrified, shivering and
shocked.
 
And the leader of the pack began, like a demon, to speak with a deep human
voice. “My dear shepherds, dogs and all my dear sheep. You now belong to us.
We have you completely in our hands.
We were amongst you, without your noticing anything. We worked
amongst you in disguise. We even inoculated you with a “serum” that makes you
now ours. You are all, as at now, bearing our “mark”.
We have also inoculated you with our spirit and data, without your having been
aware. There is now no more escape for you. The whole flock is now under our
control.

I then said in my spirit “No! The Lord is my shepherd. I will have nothing to
do with the devil and his demons. I will not have them as my shepherds”.
Then spoke the leader of the wolf pack even further with a sneer on his face,
saying “the sheep here were eating and sleeping. Your bellies and welfare were
more important to you.”

 
Sincerely in Christ,
William
