A brief about once wretched but saved by Grace to be His own.
Ever since the POTTER made me in the womb of my mother and brought me out into this world, He was nurturing, shaping and moulding me. I was born to God fearing born again parents. My dad in my childhood, who was then a Manager in MSN Railways, Erstwhile British Company, resigned from his job when he received a call to serve the Lord. My mother was an ordinary teacher earning paltry salary brought up me and my elder brother in the fear of the Lord. We used to attend Jehovah Shammah Church led by Bro. Bakth Singh. The POTTER gave me good education and always kept me high in studies as well as in job and later elevated me from ordinary Clerk to Group Personnel Manager of 5 companies. But I the clay, while the POTTER was shaping me, slipped out of the wheel and fell down as a prey to satanic and evil company. Disappointed and disgruntled, I turned rebellious and became a drunkard and suffered with Liver Cirrhosis disease. Doctors told me that I would die within 3 months. At that time, way back 36 years ago, the fear of death gripped me and I sought the hands of pastors to save me from death. But alas, by the grace of God, no pastors could do anything to me. Being certain of death in a month, according to doctors, I came to the feet of Jesus, seeking His help to save me not from death but from the hell because I know if I die I will go to hell. I pleaded God to save me before I die to be in heaven rather than die and go to hell. I confessed my sins and repented of the same and made a vow if my life is extended, I will live for Him for the rest of my life and serve Him. God heard my cry and appeared to me in vision and healed me from the dreadful disease liver cirrhosis. Glory to God! I repented and took baptism for the forgiveness of my sins and received Holy Spirit as per Acts 2: 38. I was granted gifts of grace and brought many drunkards and wretched souls to the saving knowledge of Lord Jesus. The POTTER never left me but kept me back on the wheel to mould me, shape me for His eternal plan and making everything new according to His promise. He called me to serve Him, started the ministry under Ps Anne Daniel a/s Koteswara Rao later with Bro. Yesanna in HOSANNA Ministries, toured with him in various places in India and abroad. Established a church Hosanna Mandir in Safilguda, Secunderabad for the last 17 years in total ministry of 30 years. Of late I have been asking God to shape me to His perfect image to stand beside Him as His bride before He takes me out of this world. Certain areas of my life needs to be moulded and pruned. Perhaps as a result of the prayer, God brought me to USA. One thing is clear for whom God loved, according to 1 Corinthians 2:9, the eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things God has prepared for them for them that love Him but God hath revealed them into us by His spirit, searching all things, the deep things of life. My desire and wish is to be moulded further to be His bride in His coming. May all of us have the same mind and submit and surrender ourselves to Him the POTTER.
