Nagaland’s spiritual story began with a few brave men and women who became the first Christian families in their clans, villages, and tribes. They embraced a new faith when it was neither easy nor popular. Their courage shifted the destiny of generations. Because of their obedience, the light of the Gospel entered our land, and Nagaland today stands as a testimony of what God can do through the faith of just a few.
The Bible says,
“But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15
This was the declaration of the first believers who dared to follow Christ. Their decision changed the destiny of generations.
Today, a new generation is rising in that same spirit. Across Nagaland, God is raising a new generation of firsts—the first in their family to believe, the first to break generational patterns, the first to stand for righteousness, the first to pray, the first to bring Christ back into their homes. Their lives echo the legacy of the pioneers that once transformed an entire land.
As we prepare for the Nagaland Healing and Revival Festival in Dimapur, we sense a divine stirring. This is more than a gathering; this is a calling. A call for every first Christian family, every first believer, every first intercessor to unite in one voice and cry out for revival.
The Word of God declares:
“If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face… I will hear from heaven… and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14
Nagaland needs healing.
Nagaland needs restoration.
Nagaland needs the fire of God to fall again.
We believe that the God who moved in the days of our forefathers will move again in our time.
The God who ignited a spiritual awakening in Nagaland once before is ready to breathe fresh wind over our land.
Let every believer rise.
Let every family gather in prayer.
Let every tribe, every village unite their voices.
“In the last days, I will pour out My Spirit on all people.” Acts 2:17
We claim this promise for Nagaland, “in our days, in our time, in our generation”.
This Festival is not an event; it is an invitation.
An invitation for Nagaland to return to the altar.
To honour the faith of those who came before us.
To stand together and ask God to move once more.
May the legacy of the first Christian families of Nagaland inspire us to take our place in prayer.
May we be the generation that sees revival not as history, but as reality.
Nagaland, let us humble ourselves.
Let us pray.
Let us seek His face.
And let us believe that God will move again.
