FOR ALL OF YOU WHO ARE INTERESTED IN
SPORTS, AND ESPECIALLY RUGBY . . .
We have received
this wonderful news from Pastor Atu Vulaono, General
Superintendent of "New-Methodist Christian Fellowship," (Nadi, Fiji
Islands). May we all be encouraged to pray for those serving Jesus
Christ in the sports arenas of the world.
"He is more than Gold" (I
Peter 1:18-19).
I
was invited last night to speak to the National 7s Fiji Rugby team this
morning (Wednesday March 2nd, 2005). They
are preparing for the World Rugby 7s tournament in Hong Kong this
month. (For those out of touch with the Rugby world, the Fiji
team went on to win. Ed.)
It
was their morning devotion time at 6:00 a.m.
I
arrived at the camp site at five minutes to 6:00 o'clock and the boys
were ready. Wai Severi (Waiseli Serevi)
prepared the seating arrangement and led the service. When it came to the time of sharing the WORD, I felt the
Lord wanted to deal with their lives.
The
message was direct and to the point......... "For the Word of God is living and powerful, and
sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul
and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the
thoughts and intents of the heart" (Hebrews 4:12).
Tears
rolled down the cheeks of those young men as the Holy Spirit dealt with
each one of us. At the time of the altar
call 10 new souls
gave their life to Jesus.
"It is not by might and not by power, but by My
Spirit, says the Lord" (Zechariah 4:6).
I
was blessed to be used as a vessel for the Holy Spirit.
This
is the greatest Miracle - When a person completely surrenders to Jesus.
It
was awesome......it was powerful.
May
the Glory , Honour and Praise be directed to Him and Him alone.
Today
(Thursday 3rd March) they started with a Bible Study. They requested a
Bible Study from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. every morning. These brothers
are hungry for God!
Bless you all,
Senior Pastor
Atu Vulaono.
