I will Come Back as I Go - My Daughter's Stubbornness Towards Christianity
“You did not choose me, but I chose you – John 15:16 (NIV)”
The Satan does not like anyone escaping from his net and receiving the true and only God. To achieve his ends, he fights till the end, brings in many confusions, troubles, unhappiness and sickness. Gayathri was caught up in his cunning whirl wind and was being thrown in and out of faith many a times. I was continuously praying for the Lord’s mercy and grace to touch her. Finally the Lord touched her. I compelled her to attend a three day youth girls convention conducted by Blessing Youth Mission in Sitteri Hills, Tamil Nadu. (Their website is www.Blessing Youth Mission.org one of the leading Missionary Organizations in India whose founder is Bro. R. Stanley. He is a profound Bible Teacher, powerful revival preacher, passionate mission challenger, energetic youth mobiliser, practical trainer, prolific writer and a pleasant friend). She was very reluctant to go but finally agreed to go due to my compulsion. She said, while going, that she would come back as she went. I sent my wife also along with her to ensure her total participation in the convention. Seven or eight sisters from our church also
accompanied my wife and daughter to the camp and all fasted and prayed for my daughter’s salvation and anointing by the Holy Spirit. Despite my daughter’s reluctance to go for the special prayer call at the Camp, she was compelled by my wife and others to go for it and the Holy Spirit anointed her with the sign of tongues. 1 Cor. 6:17 says “When your spirit is united with the Spirit of God, you become an anointed one”. After realizing the power, pleasure, protection of the anointing, she now spends more time on prayers, Bible reading and has become very strong in faith. Now she keeps on talking about Lord’s love to whomever she meets because the Holy Spirit has given her the Love (Rom 5:5)oly . She then volunteered to take baptism and GAYATHRI BECAME KEZIAH. She was only an average student and did not work hard with her studies. I was afraid, she might not pass her final semester examinations in her college. But the Lord blessed her to score very good marks in her Bachelor’s degree and also showered His blessings to acquire a Master’s degree in Computer Application (MCA) in first class. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE (Mk 9:23)!
