WHAT'S THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE MOVIE, 'ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA' AND DUKE'S MESSAGES IN GUJARAT?

A Ministry Report of August 2011



Duke Jeyaraj was invited by Rev. Younus Samuel and Bro. Milton to speak in the Youth Alive event of the New Life AG Church called, 'God of the City' in Hyderabad. Duke preached two conscience-awakening, concise, captivating, messages in this day-long event on August 13th, 2011, for which Brother Edward Kuntam was the other speaker. The first message was titled, 'REPENT, LEST YOU BE SWEPT ALONG WITH SODOM' (a salvation call that saw 30 youth come forward). The second message was titled, 'STAYING AS SALT IN YOUR SODOM' (after this message, youth from various colleges came forward vowing to start Prayer Cells in their colleges). On August 15th, some young people who belonged to the Methodist Church of Nadiad, Gujarat, all keen readers of this magazine, invited Duke to speak in the day-long youth retreat in a church that was well over 100 years old. Duke preached 3 terrific messages from the book of Galatians on telling topics such as Salvation, Sexual Purity and Soul-winning. Stressing the urgency of coming to Christ in the one life one had, Duke thundered the name of the movie, ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA ("You will not have this life to live again!") for the day of judgement is coming soon and there will be no chance of salvation then! On his way back to Hyderabad from Gujarat, God saved Duke from what could have been a fatal accident on August 16th, 2011! Earlier in the month, Duke lead the Galatians Book summary study at his base for Google Genners using the very name of the book as a short form following a fabulous time of intimacy with God during the time of worship lead by Preeti Iona and Fru Elvis.
Duke's apt, arrow-like message that connected the theme of honesty with the Gospel was aired in All India Radio this month

WHAT HAS OSAMA'S SUDDEN DEATH GOT TO WITH THE DAUND (MAHARASHTRA) AG YOUTH CAMP AND AN AG CHURCH IN VELLORE?

A brief May 2011 Ministry Report




Osama Bin Laden was killed by the US forces on May 1, 2011 following a surprise attack. Duke Jeyaraj took this gripping contemporary event and wrapped it around the story of the Rich Fool found in Luke 12 and preached it to various audiences he got to speak to in the month of May. He did that when he preached in the Sunday Morning service of the Assembly of God church lead by Rev. S. A. Sundarraj in Vellore. He also did that in the Duand Emmanuel Assemblies of God Youth Camp where young people from Maharashtra and Gujarat were present in one of the 5 piercing messages he preached. Duke's wife, Evan, also had a story about Osama's wife which she connected to a spiritual truth in her message about staying pure in the same camp. She also preached 3 other very practical, powerful, messages. Tears of repentance and joy in the Holy Spirit, marked the times the youngsters spent at the altar. It was indeed a joy to see young people saved, filled with the Spirit, vow to live holy, and commit for ministry in this truly wonderful youth camp for which Rev. Nana Dhar and his son, Pastor Steven Dar had lovingly invited Duke and his wife to minister. Duke shared God's Word, a word of encouragement and edification, in the church lead by Rev. Austin Carter Jones and his wife, Pastor Jothi, in Chennai, full of corporate professionals and college students, on the last Sunday of the month of May. After having finished summarizing all the 39 books of the Old Testament via small group Bible Studies, Duke crossed over to the New Testament and lead a practical summary study of the book of Romans in his Hyderabad Base one Sunday evening which revived a small group of Google Genners.

WHAT HAS INDIA'S WORLD CUP WIN TO DO WITH DUKE'S HYDERABAD BASE, CHENNAI SRM COLLEGE & 2 VELLORE CHURCHES?

A brief April 2011 Ministry Report


India became the first country in the World to win the Cricket World Cup on home soil in April 2011. It was a deeply emotional and an unforgettable moment for millions of Indians. Following Jesus' example in Luke 13:1-5 of wrapping spiritual truths around contemporary events, Duke Jeyaraj, shared Bible Truths from India's World Cup with the following groups in the month of April: (a) a small group of working professionals (from Dell, GE, Deloitte, Google, etc) in his Hyderabad base (April 3rd), (b) 800 students of SRM College, Chennai, (c) the Sunday morning service of the Zion Pentecostal Church, Vellore, lead by Pastor Immanuel Paul (April 11th) and (d) in the Sunday evening service of the Apostolic Fellowship Tabernacle, Vellore, lead by Pastor Collin D'Cruz (April 11th). The hearers were greatly challenged and immensely blessed. Some non-believers and backsliders came back to the Lord. The church pastors deeply appreciated the Word preached. What Duke shared was converted into a DVD with Joel Joseph drafting the cover design. On March 31st and on April 30th, Duke lead a month-end mid-night prayer meeting in his Hyderabad base. A small group from various backgrounds entered the new month in God's presence. Duke encouraged those who came with a short, stirring message from the Bible. The title of one message was "What We Need To For God To Meet All Our Needs" (from Philippians 4).

WHAT'S GOT KATE MIDDLETON-PRINCE WILLIAM TO DO WITH THE 2 CORINTHIANS SUMMARY STUDY THAT DUKE LEAD?

A brief July 2011 report



Duke Jeyaraj on the first Sunday evening of July 2011 lead a Bible Study summarizing the entire message of the book of 2 Corinthians for a diverse group of Google Generation youth from seven different churches at his rented base in Hyderabad. While talking about the 'pure bride' that Christ will come again to take up, in this study, he referred to Prince William and Kate Middleton.The hearers were challenged by a balanced, bold, blunt, beautifully-crafted study (Duke saw it fit to put the message of 2 Corinthians was put in the format 'S-a-u-l P-a-u-l' as it was the most personal letter that Paul ever wrote). At the end of the same month, there was a month-end mid-night prayer at Duke's the same venue for which a small group that included folks from different nations, churches and corporate companies, drove long distances to participate in. Theoson Kanagaraj, our volunteer studying in England, designed the invite for this rare event. After Susan Luth, a young woman working in GE, lead in worship, Duke shared the word from Isaiah chapter 54. It was certainly a joyous time for those who came to enter the new month in God's very presence! Duke was also invited by two magazines - the Indian Missions magazine and theIndia Church Growth Quarterly magazine - to write for them in this month. And Duke obliged them. Writing remains one of Duke's primary calls. Duke's article published in the Light of Life magazine in July 2011 was interestingly titled as "Kate, Prince William, Living-In, and the Bible." Gleaning out Bible Truths from contemporary events and presenting them creatively for the Google Generation, is one of the main goals of the Grabbing the Google Generation from Gehenna Mission (G4 Mission), the ministry to modern youth that Duke founded in 2006.




WHAT'S GOT SHAH RUKH KHAN TO DO WITH THE FIRST CORINTHIANS BIBLE STUDY THAT DUKE LEAD?

A brief June 2011 Ministry Report



Duke was invited by Mr. Paul Aravamuthan, the founder-leader
of the J Team Ministry to speak in a youth adventure camp that was held in the lakeside campsite of Scripture Union at Avalanche, perched atop a range of hills in Tamil Nadu during the first week of June 2011. Duke preached to a group of youngsters among them were a college professor, a medical doctor, a corporate professional and a professional photographer. Most of these youth attended the St. Georges Cathedral - the headquarters' church for the CSI in Chennai. Duke's direct and daring messages in this camp stressed the need to have a personal relationship with Jesus, to regularly meditate on the Bible, to be sexually pure, to witness for Christ, etc, greatly challenged this group. Holy decisions were made. "I want to be a missionary!" was one of the them. Duke also took part in various adventure sports along with the youth as part of this camp!



In the monthly Bible study that took place at his base in Hyderabad on 5 June 2011, Duke summarized the message of the book of I Corinthians using the very name of the book as an outline. He referred to actor Shah Rukh Khan's statement in
a section of his message that called for a break from smoking and boozing. For an entire working week during June 2011, Duke was in Southern Asia Bible College, Bangalore, studying a course on Kingdom Leadership taught by three different teachers, including Dr. John Higgins, the respected Assemblies of God leader from whom he received the M. Div. degree Gold Medal 10 years ago. Upon finishing this course, Duke will have his Doctor of Ministry degree.
