Myself

Chandan Salvi

My story in Christ


My name is Chandan Salvi; I was born in a Christian family. On my father’s side I am fourth generation Christian and on my Mother’s side I am fifth generation Christian. I was raised in a Christian family, where every evening we religiously practiced family prayer time and reading of the bible. 
My spiritual journey didn’t start with one time divine encounter, but it was a transition at different phases of my life. 

** In early 90’s when our city had a revival, I experienced the move of the Holy Spirit for the first time at small group prayer time. After that reading of the bible became more exciting rather than just a religious family tradition. Study of the Word of God started becoming more interesting for me, and God started to speak to me through His written Word and through His ministers. I consistently started receiving the following verse; 
”But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matt 6:33 
This became a foundational verse for me.  In the process of my spiritual growth many Men and Women of God played an important role in my life. The list is too big to mention them all here, some of them are very well known all over the world, some are least known and some may not even know me. Each of them in different stages of my life have nourished and nurtured me, patiently mentored and inspired me. 

**In 1997 I took water baptism; I didn’t miss the opportunity to witness Christ at the place I worked, my family and friends. During this period prophecies started coming over me for full time ministry. 
**In 2001 I married Susan and have two sons and a daughter; Caleb, Abigail and Abishai, respectively.  On our wedding day we received a prophesy about full time ministry, but it was the last thing on my mind as I was working and also actively involved in the Kingdom work.
 
**In 2002 I was transitioned into full time for His service as pastor. Since then our God is been faithful to us. 

**I completed Bachelor of Theology through correspondence. 

**In 2011-2012 had an opportunity to sit under some very anointed people and complete one year of Diploma in Bible studies. 

**In December 2017 Bishop Satish Raiborde recognized the call over my life and ordained me as minister of God. 

“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry.” 1 Tim 1:12 

**Kairos time

My Personal prayer:

And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel. Eph 6:19 

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servant, that with all boldness I may speak thy word, By stretching forth mine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. Acts 4:29-30

I cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Eph 1:16-17
