Kotte UBF(Sri Lanka) Report & Testimony by M.Luke Jeon
”I will also make you a light for the Gentiles, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth." (Isa 49:6b)
By God's grace we had a graceful CME led by Dr. John and Sarah Jun who came to visit our ministry and served us with all their hearts, giving us three lectures (Eph 1,2 and Gal 5). Through the life- giving words, we came to renew our eager desire for every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ and for gospel faith like Apostle Paul. We thanked God that before the creation, for his good purpose he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ and gave us redemption out of darkness.
In his grace we also praise and thank God for the revival of our missionaries' hearts through the CME with eager desire to live by the Spirit that will bear much fruit in Christ. We thank God for enabling us to have such a graceful and loving fellowship with Dr. John and Sarah Jun, having GBS and meals together in Christ for a week. They also gave us much profitable and spiritual advice during the meetings.
At the end on Sunday, Mar.13, Dr. John Jun gave a graceful and powerful message, “Spiritual blessings in Christ" (Eph 1) along with beam projector slides. We thank God that Colombo and Kotte UBF members in Sri Lanka could gather together for a joint Sunday worship service.
For two weeks, Sister Irash was suffering from Dengue fever and hovered between life and death. But God was so gracious to her and gave a miraculous healing through earnest intercessory prayer. So we all praised and thanked God for this.
On Mar.13, God blessed her and her mother to join our Sunday worship service after a 6 hour drive from her home town by a 3-wheel car. Because Irash came to our worship, all our disciples were greatly encouraged. We believe that God was so pleased by our joint Sunday worship service that he comforted all attendees, my family, S.Gideon, Sister Irasha, and Angelika with heavenly joy. We render all the glory to God for the work of the Holy Spirit among our missionaries and disciples through the CME.
My prayer topics:
1. Depending on my life key verse (Isa 49:6b), continue to serve young campus souls at Japra University through one to one Bible study and Korean language teaching.
2. Raising one Abraham and Sarah of faith.
