Message for reflection – Sr.Angelica
Be afraid!
The Lord revealed through His servants about what is going to happen in India in the years 2007-2020! Though unworthy, I, too was given a share in this! When it was shared most of the believers took it to their heart and cooperated in executing the strategies the Lord had given! But some of the Church leaders could not believe it. They started looking at my dress, the gender, family background, the place from where I am coming, etc, etc.
I still remember an invitation that came to me from the leader of a Church to share the vision in his Church on a Sunday! I accepted. But when the day came, the person called and asked me certain queries. “How many of you will be coming?, Who is the companion you are bringing? What is your educational qualification? Your companion’s educational qualification? What dress are you wearing? etc. Finally he asked me a question, “Can you please change your dress for one day and come” ? When I said, no, he said sorry and refused to give me an opportunity.
There are 365 references in Bibles where the Lord tells us , “Don’t be afraid” But in one place here we read, just the opposite!
“Be afraid”
That's right! They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you remain only because of faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid! Rom 11:20
Israelites were broken off because of their unbelief! May be they were right in testing Jesus and verifying with the checklist of all the Old Testament prophecies!
It is one’s belief and faith that matters! Only through the grace of God, we can have the discernment of what is right and wrong! Let’s be humble and open our eyes to read the signs of the times!
What is Troop Church?
There is an earnest search among the believers across the world for a real Church where a person can commune with God and relate to his fellow brethren. After trials and experiments the Indian Church is forming “Troop Church”.
The Army of Jesus was experimenting with the “Troop Church” for the past 17 years. Started in the year 1998. The experiment with Troop Church has been successful.
- It has independent first line second and third line Troop Churches
- It has raised many leaders, prophets, counselors and other ministers and gospel workers.
- It has no visible leader or hierarchical structure
- It has no office, no full timer, no paid worker etc.
- No organizational (hierarchical) set up.
- No money collection or transaction.
- No election, board, Committee etc.
- Every Troop Church trains up believers in their gifts like worshipping, preaching, prophecy etc.
- Since the mother troop disperses and starts new troops after 2 months, there is no stagnancy.
- No pollution or corruption with money or power.
11.The two wings of Troop Church are Decentralisation and Multiplication .
Troops Testimonies
I've started a troop church at home, here in Bombay and initially I didn't know how to start and from where I would have people attending, but I wanted to be obedient to His voice. Even though, at that moment we were only two of us, He said, He would bring his sheep to the fold and I only needed to be a patient shepherd girl singing over the flock that were yet to come.
So a couple of weeks back, as I was praying I felt led to put down names of people in a list, with quite a few who weren't the people I liked very much, but knew God had chosen. So I began prophesying over my list, calling those souls into being. And today I have a testimony. Without me having to contact anybody, God has been amazingly leading exactly those people from the list I made, to call or to message me (some of whom, I haven't met or spoken to for months). I have 3 youth added to the troop out of nowhere in just a week and 2 friends, in the process. Soon I'll be sharing with another friend. God's working His magic. His executing he's plan and qualifying His already chosen worshippers.
Also, I love worshipping God with instruments and dance and He who is mindful of all these little things, has given the troop a new member who plays the guitar. I'm really excited with what He is doing.
I also took my stand and spoke to my church leadership and they've peacefully released me and admitted that this is the work of God and that they'll back it up with prayer.
I'm going to continue obeying God and take one step at a time, in walking on the waters.
*TESTIMONY TIME – Salt of the earth troop @ Bro.Umashankar's home, Porur, Chennai*
9th week sitting: 15th Sep.2016 (7.30 pm to 11.00 pm)
Members of the Salt of the earth troop, Porur, Chennai reported the following miracle testimonies on 15th Sep. 2016 – the ninth sitting of the troop, showing the power of Jesus to do miracles, signs and wonders in the life of ordinary people. The testimonies were captured even when they were narrating it during the troop meeting. And they are given in the same order in which they were narrated.
*#4 Bro.Karthik*
I wanted the Lord to reveal the word when I meditate the word of God. The troop prayed for me.
Now I am able to understand the word of God. The Lord has answered my prayers. Today I could give a full message. Glory to Jesus. Amen.
*I could get revelations from the word of God ONLY after I left the Sunday only church permanently.*
*The word of God - FLEE THE DECEIVED (the fake church):*
Titus 3:9
But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.
But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time. After that, have nothing to do with him.
A man that is an heretic after the first and second admonition reject;
Rom 16:17
I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.
Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. (KJV)
(The above two verses are for Sis. Renuka Karthik who has recently fled the fake church along with her husband Bro.Karthik)
*#5 Sis. Anitha*
Last week I got healed of neck pain even while I was in the troop church. As the troop church was proceeding, my neck pain left, never to come back. All glory to Jesus.
I could get his grace even when I am not baptised. I am wondering how much more grace I would get if I am baptised and I imagine what the Lord can do with me after baptism?
*#6 Tarunika Umashankar – Engg. student.*
I was attending a series of symposium held in other colleges as a part of the curriculum. But I could not win any award in as many symposium attended. I got vexed. Last week I went to yet another college for symposium. This was unrelated to my discipline. I belong to the ECE. This symposium was meant for Mechanical Engineering discipline.
I did the first round in the forenoon. There was no result. This was the last opportunity for me to clinch an award failing which the privilege to go out and attend symposium on duty would be lost. It was a do or die situation. I reached a point of frustration. As I got tired, I started reading the Bible during lunch hour. My first urge was to pick up Psalms and read. Then I remembered my father's warning, _“there is no power in the Psalms but there is absolute power in the four gospels”._
So I opened the gospel books and read two chapters.
As soon as I finished the Bible reading I got a call saying we cleared the first round.
In the end, in Mechanical symposium we got 2nd prize by the grace of Jesus.
After we clinched the Mechanical symposium award which is unrelated to our discipline, the organisers showed surprise and asked us “Are you doing the final year?” We said,we are in the 3rd semester only. They were stunned as there is no history of second year students clinching titles. Glory to Jesus. The Lord heard the prayers and exalted us. Amen.
2) My classmate said "I am going to commit suicide". He sent pictures of paracetamol tablets which he said he was going to intake. I counselled him against that and subsequently prayed to the Lord cancelling his proposed deed. He belong to CSI. I came to know from other classmates that he had already made suicide attempts. I committed him into the hands of Jesus.
The next day he texted me _"my mother detected the paracetamol tablets and removed them"._ Lord Jesus answered my prayers. Glory to Jesus. Amen.
*#7 Bro.Kirubakaran.*
Last Sunday we had office on Sunday unusually because of a UK customer.
My wife was praying for the successful inspection of the customer.
Finally they said, we are giving two container order. We lost a similar order during last December 2015 floods. This time we got it. The Lord compensated us. Amen. Glory to Jesus.

TRUTH ABOUT JESUS – THE BOX ITEM: KISSING THE BABY JESUS DOLL – Bro.C.Umashankar IAS
THE BOX ITEM: KISSING THE BABY JESUS DOLL
THE SECOND CALL: The Lord appeared to Abraham and confirmed the call.
Genesis 17:1 (NKJV) When Abram was ninety-nine years old, THE LORD APPEARED TO ABRAM and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. 2 And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
In the first instance, there word of God is silent whether Abraham had seen the person of the Lord or not. But when the call was confirmed in Genesis 17:1, Abraham had seen the Lord. The word of God is very clear by saying, “..the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God;..”. This is not in vision but a direct appearance of the Lord.
The word of God is very specific when the Lord gives a vision or dream.For example, the dream of Jacob in Genesis 28:12 in which he saw angels ascending and descending on a ladder. But in Genesis 32:1,2 Jacob saw the angels with his own eyes.
In Genesis 15:12-21, the Lord God spoke to Abraham in dream.
In Acts of the apostles 10:9-16, the word of God describes how Peter saw a vision about his impending ministry to the gentiles.
The Lord spoke to Joseph, the foster father of Jesus through angel only through dreams; in Matthew 1:20 (warning him not to reject the pregnant Mary), Matthew 2:13 (warning him that King Herod would try to kill child Jesus and so get out to Egypt), Matthew 2:19-20 (angel of the Lord directs him to go back to Israel) When it came to Zechariah and virgin Mary, the Lord chose to send arc angel Gabriel in person (Luke 1:11,19; Luke 1:26).
In Genesis 17:1, the Lord appeared to Abraham and spoke to him.
COMPARE GENESIS 17:1 AND REVELATION 1:8
“I AM THE ALMIGHTY GOD”
The word of God reveals that the Son of Man is the Almighty God of the Old Testament and also the New testament.
Let us take a look at the wordings of Genesis 17:1 and Rev.1:8.
Genesis 17:1 (NKJV) When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I AM ALMIGHTY GOD; walk before Me and be blameless.
Revelation 1:8 (NKJV) “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.”
Do you see what I see!
The Lord has used the same term, “Almighty” in the Old and New testament to describe Himself. In Revelation 1:8, it is the Son of Man as the Book of Revelation itself is called the Revelations of Jesus Christ.
The usage of the same term, “Almighty” in the Old and New testament indicates that the one who uttered Genesis 17:1 and Rev.1:8 is the one and the same God.
SIDELIGHT:
B) MOSES AND THE SON OF MAN (JESUS)
MOSES SPOKE TO THE LORD FACE TO FACE.
We saw it in Exodus 33:20 and John 1:18 that no one can see the Father God's face and live. But Moses had seen the Lord's face and he did not die. The word of God is very clear that Moses and the Lord saw each other face to face!
Exodus 33:11(NKJV) SO THE LORD SPOKE TO MOSES FACE TO FACE, as a man speaks to his friend. And he would return to the camp, but his servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart from the tabernacle.
Deuteronomy 34:10 But since then there has not arisen in Israel a prophet like Moses, whom THE LORD KNEW FACE TO FACE,
THE DECISION POINT – What is the verdict?
IS HE JUST 2000 YEARS OLD?
The son of God was the second person of the trinity from the beginning and He was with God. The whole creation work was done through the word of God (Son of God)only. Adam, Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Gideon and the like forefathers saw the Lord. He is the Creator God, Almighty. Amen.
He has no beginning and no end, Alpha and Omega.
God the Father send forth his son,born of a woman (Gal 4:5)when the time has fully come .He was given the name Jesus
Prophecy NEWS Updates
The Truth About Israel's Christian Minority
In the Gatestone Institute's August report on Christian persecution, Raymond Ibrahim described the brutal, rampant and global Islamic persecution of Christians and other minorities, including violations of religious freedom, harassment, detention, torture and executions. The accounts are too abundant and tragic to list in full, as many involve gruesome persecution, murder, and rape happening in Eritrea, Iran, Syria, Iraq, Uganda, Bangladesh, Congo, Philippines, Egypt, Tanzania, Pakistan, Germany, Azerbaijan, Turkey and Nigeria. Ibrahim concluded, "Such Muslim persecution is not random but rather systematic, and takes place in all languages, ethnicities and locations."
Elkhoury fled to Israel with family after his father, a former South Lebanon Army (SLA) officer, had to leave his homeland during Israel's withdrawal in May 2000.
Now that he's found safe refuge in Israel, Elkhoury writes and talks about the situation of Israeli Christians and minorities to various audiences and advocates for the Christian Empowerment Council (CEC) in Israel.
Elkoury concludes that to improve the life of Christians everywhere, Israeli Christians should speak out about their positive experiences as minorities in the Jewish state. "The Christian society is one of the successful minorities in Israel," he said. "There are people in high positions in education, in hospitals, courts - everywhere you look you will find a Christian in a high position. They are a quiet yet successful community, and they are not speaking out enough." I think we are heading towards a better future," he said. Indeed, through telling his story and educating the Christian sector, Elkoury is one of the few people creating that better future for his fellow Israeli Christians and Christian minorities around the world.

China's Christians Facing 'Harsh Religious Winter' as Gov't Crackdown Intensifies, Activists Warn
The Communist Party of China has intensified its ongoing crackdown of Christianity and other faiths with the publication of new rules and regulations that tighten the government's grip on underground churches, persecution watchdog groups have said. China Aid, which reports on religious freedom issues in China, said late last week that the new restrictions are aimed at dispersing Christian house churches and silencing Tibetan and Xinjiang separatists.
The Revised Draft of Regulations on Religious Affairs is expected to formally come into effect early in October, and includes prohibitions on "organizing citizens to attend religious training, conferences and activities abroad," "preaching, organizing religious activities, and establishing religious institutions or religious sites at schools," and "providing religious services through the internet."
Christian Boy May Be Executed in Pakistan for Posting 'Blasphemous' Picture on Facebook

Obama Should Have Talked About 'Unprecedented Persecution' of Christians at UN, Watchdog Groups Say
Several persecution watchdog groups have said that President Barack Obama should have spoken out more forcefully for persecuted Christians and other religious minorities at his final U.N. General Assembly speech, as world leaders continue meeting this week in New York. "While President Obama referenced the tragic conflict in Syria and the 'mindless, medieval menace of ISIL,' in his speech at the UN General Assembly, I was disappointed that he did not reference the unprecedented level of brutal persecution faced by Christians, Yazidis, and other religious minorities throughout the Middle East," Kristin Wright, director of advocacy at Open Doors USA, told The Christian Post in a statement. "I believe the American people want to see greater evidence of deep concern from the president of the United States — in word and action — for those living under the tyranny of religious persecution,"
Know Your Enemy
Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:11
Section 1 - The Old Testament - Ahab, Jezebel and Elijah
Immediately after Israel was established in the Promised Land of Canaan it was governed by a system of Judges and God was considered their supreme ruler or king. But by the time of 1 Samuel the people started to demand a human king in order to be like the other nations around them. In spite of God’s warnings about this they persisted with the request and God obliged. The first human king was Saul who was soon replaced by David. This takes us onto the book of 1 Kings in the Bible where the subsequent successions kings are documented. These transitions of leadership led to a downward spiral and the eventual division of Israel and throughout it all, we see a constant invasion of Baal worship over the years. Satan was still going with Plan A at this point.
The pivotal figure was king Ahab. And just as Nimrod’s importance was hinted at by the extra attention given to him in Genesis, the same can be said of king Ahab in the book of 1 Kings. The writer makes sure to elaborate on his reign and to tell us his story in greater depth than the others. The Bible says of Ahab that “he did evil in the Lord’s sight, even more than any of the kings before him.” This guy was the worst of the worst. There had been bad kings before but no one touched Ahab. Not only this, but he married a woman called Jezebel, who was the princess daughter of Ethbaal, Canaanite King of Tyre and Sidon and priest of Astarte. You couldn’t get a worse combination of titles and clearly this was not the kind of family the king of Israel should have been marrying into. For a people that God was intent on keeping undefiled and pure, this marriage would pose significant problems.
As expected, soon after their marriage, the pollution began. Ahab established temple for Baal and an Asherah pole in Israel for his wife’s sake. An Asherah pole is basically an obscene phallic symbol (remember paganism is obsessed with sex) otherwise known as an obelisk. But Queen Jezebel was not content to simply allow the worship of Baal and Asherah concurrently with the worship of Israel’s true God; she was determined to eliminate worship of the true God altogether. She embarked on a campaign whereby most of God’s prophets were killed and in their place were installed false prophets for Baal and Asherah. She successfully controlled Ahab, implemented idol worship and had him build a temple in their honour.
As a result the biblical record shows Israel plunging from the heights of David’s glorious and Godly reign to the depths of the pagan idolatry and Satanism under Ahab and this was in many ways Israel’s darkest hour. Satan was very close to winning God’s chosen people to himself once and for all. The apostasy of Israel was almost complete. The foundations of Godliness were fast crumbling. The judgement of God was forthcoming.

- Praise and worship in the National Worship Centre is a unique experience. Self and God integration at a higher altitude and concentrate praise and worship in a meaningful manner. The atmosphere in the hall is excellent with all equipment. Holy Spirit’s presence is felt closely. God bless and protect this place.
- Praise the Lord. I saw heavens opening. It was so bright . God was seated on his throne. He came and wrapped me with his white cloth. It was too bright and thin big cloth, which he was wearing. Thank God for taking me to his righteousness.
- Praise be to the lord God Almighty! As we were worshipping as a family in the throne house, I was moving around the stage, worshipping my Lord freely without any restriction and conscious feeling. Suddenly in front of the right side purple screen I felt the Lord’s presence as a rushing cold wind. I felt chill all over and knelt at that place and glorified God whole-heartedly. What a mighty God we have!!
- Praise be to God. We worshipped the Lord with great humility and love. We experienced God’s presence in our midst. Thanks be to our God.
- Praise the Lord! Jesus Christ! I saw Jesus sitting on the throne in the centre of the worship stage. listening to our songs. He was extremely happy.
