A miracle working God

Kikon Lotha- Neighbours Mission Himalayas.

Millions of souls are perishing without hearing the Gospel in the Himalayan region. Can you hear the heartbeat of God for those souls perishing? People in this region are lost in alcohol and drug addiction, possession by evil spirits and abusive family lives. Many are sick and hopeless, having no vision for their life. The people there are hungry for the Word of God but are in bondage with their superstitions, fears and Idol worship. They have been Idol worshippers until their lives have been transformed by the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Each one has a powerful testimony to tell

Eph 2:1-10 For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

In 1997 after Bible school in my home country of Nagaland, I moved to Siliguri in obedience to the call of God. God gave me a clear mission…A ministry of church planting-winning souls for Christ. After much prayer and fasting Neighbours Mission Himalayas was birthed to work in the Himalayan regions that borders India, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Nepal. Our ministry is based on Matthew 22:37-39 “Jesus replied, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself”. My wife and I have obeyed His divine calling in our lives to carry out His mission. Praise God that we have been blessed to witness miracles of healing, signs and wonders and His marvellous provision when we submitted by faith to do His calling. I am humbled by the fact that God in His magnificent wisdom and grace has allowed me to get a glimpse into what He is doing in the Himalayan region.”

In February 2015 a young lady, Seema Routh, was brought to our church for prayers. She was in her 7^th month of pregnancy and had a heart problem. She could hardly walk and had difficulty in breathing. Shortly after this she felt numbness in her legs and became paralysed from the waist down. Her desperate mother took her to Hospital and was told that due to her complications of her heart, her paralysis and her pregnancy there was nothing they could do and the doctor informed the family that there was a strong possibility she would not make it. They were poor and going to the hospitals in the city was not an option.  When a neighbour suggested taking her to the Christian church, her parents and her husband immediately brought her. They kept coming faithfully and believed this Christian god could heal their daughter. God in His compassion and love for Seema healed her completely. In April she gave birth to healthy baby girl and both mother and daughter is doing well. She is able to walk and shows no sign of any heart problem. After her delivery Sema accepted Jesus as her Lord and saviour and was born again. Now her husband, mother and two brothers come to church regularly and she is praying that they too will accept Jesus as they Lord and Saviour. When Seema’s doctor heard what happened he did not believe it until she went to see him and even then could not believe that she was completely healed. Seema’s healing has spread around the villages and has brought hope to many. Many lives have been touched through Seema’s miracle.God used this simple uneducated girl to reveal His power, His compassion and His love.

In the village of Belgachi, a 44 year old woman fell to the ground in the throes of an epileptic fit. It was a daily occurrence for her, sometimes 4 to 5 times a day. She had spent all her saving trying to find a cure, seeing one doctor after another. When that did not work she sought the help of the Hindu gods and spent all her money on one medium after another until all her money was gone. On the 2^nd of March a Christian neighbour took Ps Suresh Turi, our missionary to pray for her. When the Pastor laid hands on her she felt instantly that she was healed. From that instant she has never had another seizure again. Now she, her husband and 4 daughters have accepted Jesus and been born again.  People who knew her are simply amazed at her healing and many of her neighbours and friends want to know this God who healed her.

God is moving in such a powerful way across the Himalayas reaching, touching and changing lives.  People in the Himalayas are coming to Christ with openness to the supernatural demonstration of God’s power especially through miracles, signs and wonder. A spiritual harvest has began and God is calling His people back to Him.

Heb 2:4

And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose.
