This statement Jesus said to all the seven churches in the book of Revelation. It is very clear to see what Jesus is saying. The Holy Spirit will speak to the church and we must listen and respond to Him in obedience.
Remember Acts 13 when the church in Antioch experienced this.
“As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them’.”(Verse: 2)
The church in Antioch heard the Holy Spirit and responded in obedience: “Then, having fasted and prayed and laid hands on them, they sent them away.” (Verse: 3)
The Lord showed us to plant a church in Randburg. He also showed us where to cast our net in Randburg, which is Ferndale.
At first we battled to find a place in the area that the Lord had shown us. All the places we approached where not open for a church to rent their premises and the reasons for this varied. We then started to look at different areas in Randburg, but no success. The Lord reminded me that He will show me where to cast our net. I had peace and continued to trust Him for His guidance. Not long after this we were approached by Knights Preparatory School. And we started with our first service in Randburg on the 7th of July 2019. The amazing thing is that Knights Preparatory School is right next to Ferndale High School.
We are in the area that the Lord had shown us. Thank you Lord for your faithfulness and Your continual guidance.
Apostle Andre and Prophet Nola Pelser were at our first service in full support of the new church plant. It was a great honour to have the founders of Harvester International Ministries with us. As a couple they have gone through much suffering and ridicule but remained faithful. They have given so much in service to the Lord. Apostle Andre has been sent by the Lord to more than a 120 nations, training and imparting to different ministers and churches. We honour the Lord for them.
Grace and peace.
