What was new this time?

At Navapur there were several things that set it apart from the other conventions so far. Some of the highlights as mentioned by various leaders and preachers were:
• No one seemed to be ‘in-charge’ of the sessions, but it all was beautifully woven together into a beautiful tapestry. The Lord Almighty was in-charge!
• The preachers, the worship leaders, the announcements were all in sync with the Lord’s presence
• The Word in the general sessions and in the Leaders Session were spoken with great anointing and every person sensed the strong presence of God.. One of the leaders later commented “I could not take in all that was being said because I was under the presence.
• Brotherly love, the true meaning of Filadelfia, on display in all the sections of the crowd.
• A great exhibition of unity among the leaders and the believers.
• An elderly participant commented, “ I could hardly move my feet during the conference. As the days progressed, I could hardly sit because of joy. So I jumped up and did an impromptu dance for my Lord”. This dance triggered other women to join her and in a few minutes the sisters, young and old, rural and urban were dancing to God’s heart beat.
• After the closing session, there was half an hour of what I would call a Miriam dance – an impromptu dance of celebration, thanksgiving and pure rejoicing in all what God has done for His people and in which the leaders, the elders, the women and the children all joined in.
• The dedication of the Grace Hospital, a 70 bedded hospital which would meet the health needs of the people in Navapur and nearby localities, was the other highlight of the week.
