Hello,

Greetings to you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

How have you been?

We are good by the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am very excited to reach you through this blog. Today I would love to share everything about what God has been doing in our lives and our future plans in brief.

As most of you know we are residing in Andhra Pradesh ever since God brought me here in 2008. I was born and brought up in Hutti Gold Mines, Raichur (dist), Karnataka and
as my father retired from his service my parents planned  to leave that so called golden land and move to Andhra Pradesh.

But as for me, I was in love with that place. I was born and brought up there and was serving God among my people and was very comfortable doing so. When my parents decided to shift to AP I told them that I would stay back in Karnataka and continue to do what I was doing for the Lord.  But sadly my parents have not agreed. I went to the feet of Jesus and asked Him to help me stay back. Surprisingly, as I was praying on regular basis God has prepared me gradually to move away from Karnataka. As I was leaving I felt in my Spirit that my work assigned by God in Karnataka was over for the season.

I came to AP as an Evangelist and continued to serve God like in Karnataka. God started opening doors for ministry in a different level and I traveled many places ministering be it in a village, town or city. God honored me everywhere I went and He is still doing the same till date and I very well believe that He will continue to do as long as I live.

In the year 2010, as I was praying I heard the Spirit of God asking me to conduct a training program for one month. He directed me where to do and what to be taught in the school and He also gave me a title for the program as “School of Disciples”(SOD). I had no clue of why I was doing this but after 30 days of classes I have decided to reward the students with certificates. Even then I did not know the reason behind all this. I prayed for nearly 3-4 days but I had no answer. Suddenly, on the day of the convocation as I was taking shower I heard the voice of the Holy Spirit very clearly and loudly in my spirit, saying, “You are preparing the way for me to come back”. I was filled with happiness and praised God. Since then we have conducted 6 batches of SOD and God has been faithful in all these classes. God has also given us grace to send the trained students to plant a church and till now we have worked for more than 3 churches in AP.

In 2011, I got married to a wonderful God fearing girl Leena. As she was still working I had to move to Pune. While we were there God gave us grace to start an English church and God blessed it. People came from very far places to attend our church and interestingly few members would leave their places at 7 am in the morning to attend our 10 am service. In a very quick span of time, our church grew faster!

In 2012, we have visited AP to celebrate our first anniversary and God didn’t allow us to go back. We have planned our trip to AP only for a couple of weeks and so we had just 3-4 pairs of clothes. Days passed by, weeks passed by and months passed by and we were seeking the will of God in our lives. We knew our time in Pune was over and so we went back and handed over our church to another pastor and back came to AP and started to pastor the same church I did before.

Now we strongly believe that our time here in AP is almost over and God has confirmed this through many men of God. One fine day when we met Rev. Shyju Mathew the first word he said was, “Jeevan your time in AP is over”. We continued praying and we now know that God wanted us to move to Bangalore.

Previously I was working for End Time Herald Ministries and the reason me and Leena haven’t written any blog from the past few months was because God wanted to bring us out of End time heralds and work for Revive Nations under Rev. Shyju Mathew.
I had shared with him everything that the Lord has put in my heart. Knowing it was God’s plan he has gladly received us into the family of Revive Nations. We would be working for Bangalore Revival Center along with Ps. Priji Varghese.

We are on a fast for 40 days till  01-01-2014 and looking forward to move to Bangalore in the first week of January, 2014. Please keep us in your prayers.

We would continue to reach out to you through our blogs at , jeevankumar.com

Love you,
Jeevan n Leena
