Message for reflection – Sr. Angelica AJ
Who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple
Luk 14:31-33 Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not first sit down and consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? ......... So then, everyone of you who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple.
The Lord trained our hands and fingers all these 24 years for the warfare we were fighting, within the borders of India. Now He is enlarging our borders. We can capture nation after Nation. I am reminded of one slide in the Vision “Model Church”
My Church-a powerful Army
It will march forward
breaking all barriers!
Ever triumphant!
It has no national frontiers!
Now this is the time we have to capture nations.
Before setting out to capture Nations the Lord is asking us to sit down and consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
We, the soldiers in AOJ are few in number. But the country we are going to capture have an army double, triple, many times bigger than us. So let’s calculate and come to the strategies we have to follow in order to win the battle.
- Be a valiant soldier in AOJ – Let’s examine if I am fulfilling the 5 duties of a soldier in my life
- Spending 2.30 hrs in prayer daily. In worshipping the Lord and meditating the Word of God.
A sister who was into deep depression not doing any of the household works but on bed all the time, came to meet us a few months back. While praying she fell down .The spirit of guilt was inside her. She was introduced to the Morning worship of AOJ. Two days back she shared a testimony in the group that she is delivered completely from her depression. She is doing all the works at home and is getting good sleep at night. Morning worship helped her to come out of depression.
- Conducting or attending a Troop Church once a week and multiplying it in 2 months.
- Attending or conducting weekly Troop Church
It is mandatory that all soldiers should attend Troop Church once a week. After attending Troop Church for 2 months, a soldier will be equipped to start a new Troop Church normally.
- Proclaim the Gospel daily to at least two persons
An AOJ soldier should target at 2 souls. You can take “The Rhema word” for them from the Bible and give to them.
Soldiers should always have “2 target souls” like this. They should pray for them every day. They are the “target persons” for their new troop. Praying for them every day will open a door to come in contact with them (if they are not yet). They will become members for your troop Church. Once they start attending your Troop Church, you can take another 2 members.
- Start a new troop Church in 2 months
If a soldier is regular in the 3rd duty, the 4th will automatically follow. Many will be standing in queue to join your new Troop Church. The Lord will send the right persons to your Troop.
We should be careful not to attract or admit any soldier not recruited and selected by our Lord. If the right soldiers are admitted into the troop, they will bear fruit and bring glory to the Father.
- Trans India Programme (TIP)
Good works –It is rendering free service of 2 hours in a week to anyone who is in need.
AOJ introduced Natural Farming, Teaching handworks to AOJ soldiers in this regard.
1Ti 6:18 They are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share,
Tit 2:7 Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works,..........
Building & planting
From 2020 onwards the Lord has been continuously at work in
Uprooting, overthrowing, tearing down & destroying the hierarchical system of the Church from the World.
This is the time to plant and build the True Church Troop Church throughout the world.
Jer 31:28
Go therefore……
Mat 28:18 ….. All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth.
All authority is given to us to shake the nations.
Mat 28:19 Therefore go and teach all nations…
Let’s teach all the Nations the “Troop Church Strategy”
Mat 28:20 teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you.
Let’s teach the nations whatever Jesus has taught us through Troop Churches, Gift Schools, Morning worships, CBS, Night prayers, etc...

AOJ ACTIVITIES IN JHARKHAND
Since 2012 we are with AOJ. By the grace of God we involved almost in all the activities of AOJ, like Shekinah, Eschol, Troop Church, BFF and all gift schools etc. Many troop churches are growing in the southern part of the state however we are lagging behind in northern part, which we are trying. Three BFF centres are in the state where every month people are coming for discipleship training. In 2019 we also participated in inheriting the land with SMLs. They worked hard and inherited all SMP constituencies. Then SMLAs were appointed to inherit assembly constituencies. Gift schools were also arranged time to time in different places to make them strong and faithful soldiers for The Lord Jesus Christ.
AOJ ACTIVITIES IN CHATTISGARH
BFF training done once. But, due to covid and lockdown AOJ activities not progressed as expected. Now again troop church, Morning Prayer and night prayer etc. has been started. We are planning to start some gift schools too.
