Paid in Full
Yesterday we had the first full dress rehearsal for the "PAID IN FULL" production, PEC is organising. The cast alone more than 50 people, young and old all worked hard for the last three months to out this evangelistic program together.
When the organising team, led by Bro Siva, first broached the idea of this production in mid Dec 2015, there was some suspicion, even from the church board, if this can even take off the ground. But the team persevered. They raised the money for the budget and got the act together. With much difficulty and lack of many resources, the team depended on the Holy Spirit to do the leading.

Yesterday's outcome just when on to show, that all things are possible to anyone who dares to dream big with the power of the Holy Spirit.
The comments from those who came for the preview was that "its one of the best they have seen". I too was overwhelmed by the commitment, unity and the passion of the entire crew to see souls getting saved as a result of this production. There is a lot of leadership potential. A lot of energy and synergy. When everyone works together in unity, there in no telling what we can achieve.
Around the same time last year, we went through a massive storm in PEC. Many condemned us, hurled all sorts of abuses and expected us to decay and rot. But God had other plans. I believe its the Lord's doing. If the storm did not arise, we would have remained in the same mould, doing the same things like what has been done for the many years and thinking we are doing God's will. So all things worked out for good. Its not what we say or claim to be that matters, but what we do in the light of what we know. God does the rest.
I am reminded of the words is Psalms 46:
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.[c]

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

7 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.

8 Come and see what the Lord has done,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease
to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the shields[d] with fire.
10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”

Today we have indeed moved forward. Totally a different PEC, a new breed of younger generation is a rising. Full of fire and hope for the future. God's promise that He will enlarge our territory is soon to be fulfilled. And I will see it with my own eyes.
The next three days are crucial. The whole purpose of this show is to reach the unreached for Christ. We are praying and expecting to see souls touched for the Lord.
