Dearly Beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Creator, Maker, and ever unforgettable Lord Jesus Christ. The Blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Psalms 37:4, 5, “Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your ways unto the Lord trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass. ”
From the above context we see that God expects us to trust in Him. God wants us to commit our ways unto the Lord. Then all our desires will be fulfilled. Many of you who are reading this message are hurt in your mind that things are not working as you expected. Though you received many promises only a few were fulfilled. You are still waiting for the rest to happen. As a result your heart is troubled. The Lord never rejects the desires of your heart. He hears your prayers and answers them when you are badly in need of the blessing. He gives you, what you request when you are capable of receiving it. God knows when the desire of your heart should be fulfilled. In case He answers your request immediately then you may disregard the blessing that is granted to you at an earlier period. The Lord does not want you to lose the blessings that He gives you, just as Esau lost the blessings from his father by giving away his birth right to his brother Jacob for a bowl of porridge just to fill his hunger.
Never say that God is bad just because God had not answered to your prayers. The Lord is good, so He waits for the right time to answer your prayers.
He is longing to bless you. The Bible says, it pleased the Lord to bless Israel. Yes You are His beloved children. You are Israel. The Psalmist says, The Lord will fulfil the desire of those who fear Him. He also will hear their cry and save them.” That is the nature of God. The Lord may not give it to you as you are not, matured enough to receive that blessing for which you desire or pray for. When God finds you fit for receiving the blessing and you will be able to handle it carefully then the Lord will grant you, your petition. You may be of age but you may not have the experience, to handle the situation. God sees if you are broadminded and matured enough to handle hard situation that might arise when you receive the blessing.
So all you need to do is to ask the Lord to grant you the maturity to receive the blessing. Secondly ask God to give you the grace to preserve the blessings that God gives to you. The Bible says, the blessings of the Lord rests upon the head of the righteous. You need to be righteous to receive God’s blessing. You cannot be unrighteous and claim for God’ blessing. Thirdly ask God to forgive you of all your sins. And give up all those things that do not please God. Finally ask God to prepare your heart to accept what God gives you and use it wisely and carefully. So you got to uproot your past sinful nature and become perfect, holy and righteous before this Holy God in order for God to bless you with the desires of your heart. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord, we are glad to realize that you wait for us, to get matured in order that we may receive the Blessings. Thank you Lord for instructing us to be righteous. also perfect in our behaviour. Make us holy for we ourselves cannot become holy. Let the Holy Spirit cleanse us thoroughly and make us fit to receive the desires of the heart.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
Dearly Beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Creator, Maker, and ever unforgettable Lord Jesus Christ. The Blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Isaiah 43:18, 19, “Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past, see I am doing a new thing. Now it will spring forth. Do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness, and streams in the desert. ”
Today the Lord is prophetically saying to you about what He is going to do for you. I therefore urge every one of you reading this message to read it carefully, and inherit God’s blessing. God in the very beginning of this message, advises you to forget the past things that happened in your life. So never dwell on the past happenings. God is saying that you should not, think of the past. Because certain incidents that had caused much sorrow to you in the past, in case you think about it, then those past incidents might disturb your mind, and you shall become more troubled and sorrowful. You may even get into depression and be mentally disturbed. God is telling you all of this, to help you be more cautious. So He advises you not to think of the past. Your past life, your past sinful life, your horrible life might have shattered you and put you in a corner not allowing you to go forward in your life. You must not think about the past connections you have had with filthy people, who had dragged you to involve yourself, in wrong activities.
God’s word says, “See, I am going to do a new thing for you. So the Lord is going to do something new, for you. ” He is going to open a new chapter for you in your life.
Some of you working abroad have come on vacation, to your home town to such people God is saying, when you are abroad you make a call to your wife just to rebuke her, but be kind and speak words of comfort to her. Only then she will be pleased with you and she will look into the affairs of her children happily. If you wish to rebuke her or hurt her feelings then you need not make calls to her. Don’t spoil her peace, then she will be crying and her children too will be crying along with her during the night. Such things should never happen in the lives of the children of God. Likewise, wives also should never call your husband to ask for money. Never hurt his feelings by questioning him saying, “Have you sent your money to your mother, or your sister.” These will furiate your husband. So be careful while talking. Instead you must ask for his welfare, enquire about his health condition, and how his work is going on. This shows that you are more concerned about him. You must pour your love upon him. Then peace will reign in your homes. You will be happy here, your husband will be happy there, and your children will all the more be happy. Then they will be able to concentrate on their studies. When parents fail to be at peace then children are badly affected. So keeping in mind the joy of your children you need to follow the teachings and advice of God, by the reading of His word.
God expects a change in the attitude and behaviour of you people. Husband must love his wife for what she is and the wife also should love her husband. True love can be understood, if the wife really loves the husband or not by the manner in which they speak. This is pleasing unto God. I often go abroad for ministry work and if something goes wrong with me, both my wife and daughter will be able to understand my condition, by my voice. They will immediately inquire; about my health and how I am in that distant place. That shows true love. God wants to give you a new life. Life of love. You cannot make anyone happy with all the money you have. Instead you must shower your love upon them through your kind words. Share your love as much as possible. Give love to your wife in abundance. As a good wife you may not be able to provide money to your husband but you can always share your love in abundance to him. Give your love in abundance to your children. For God says, “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you.”Be kindly affectionate to one another. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord, we thank you for teaching us how we need to show love to our dear ones and also others who come in contact with us. Help us to forgive others of their wrong deeds, and enable us to love them. Teach us to speak words of comfort and also pour sincere love upon others. Especially help us to pour love in abundance upon our spouse and our children. May we be united in love.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
Dearly Beloved in Christ I greet and bless you in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life giving word of the Lord, for today is from the book of Acts 1:8, “ But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
You will be strengthened when the Holy Spirit comes on you. Jesus said, ‘I will send the comforter from heaven’. Likewise, when the disciples were trembling in fear in the upper chamber the Lord made the Holy Spirit come upon them. What will happen when the Holy Spirit comes upon you? You will be strengthened in your soul, in your spirit. The Lord will give new strength to your body, soul, and spirit. The Bible says, the Holy Spirit is the comforter. He is the Lord who comforts you in your weariness. He is the Lord who consoles you. He will revive your spirit.
Today, the Lord is saying, to you, ‘My strength will be sufficient in your weakness’. The other importance of the Holy Spirit is that He will lead you through all the truth. You may not know all the truths of the Bible, but the Holy Spirit will lead you to the truth. Today, the Lord is taking you and your family into His hands to lead them in the truth. The Holy Spirit is the One who takes everything under His control. When the Holy Spirit comes, you will become Holy. You will have His strength to overcome temptation. God bless you.
Prayer: Loving Father, we thank you for the Holy Spirit. Today, as your children are reading Your word, let the Holy Spirit who strengthens them, who leads them in all truth come upon them and let them receive a divine strength, in their body, soul, and spirit. May the Holy Spirit, lead your children on the path of righteousness. Lead them on the straight path so that they will not fall to the right or to the left. Lead their business, family life, and let them live well in all things. May they be blessed with new strength.
In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen!
Dearly Beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life giving word of the Lord, for today is from the book of Isaiah 43:4, ‘You are precious in My sight, so you have been honoured.”
What a beautiful verse this is! This is a verse that increases our faith in God. Do you know who is saying this? It is the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. You may be a matter of scorn before others; You may be a matter of disgust to others. None of that is important. How are you in the sight of God? The Lord is describing you as precious in His sight. To such children, the Lord is telling that He will honour them. What you must understand from this is that you must shed the feeling of inferiority from yourself. Today, many have inferiority complex, like ‘what will happen to me? What knowledge or wisdom do I have? Who do I have? I don’t have a good job. I don’t have a house of my own. Many have such inferiority complex. But think as to whose child you are! You are the child of God, the King of kings. Why must you degrade or think low of yourself. Others may judge you wrongly. But the Lord knows you well. He understands you better than any other person.
A brother had said about me in this manner. “Brother does not have any meetings now! So he has to run his family with what he gets from the ministry. He also has to take care of the ministry. The other person said, ‘No brother, it is not so. He has given his business on lease to someone else and he is getting lakhs of rupees every month, from that business. What does he lack? When I heard this news, I thought, never mind, the Lord has kept me in great stature before others. It does not matter whether you are exalted before others or looked down upon. The truth is that “I left the Car business for the sake of the Ministry.” Some said, ‘Wait and see he will come to the street in few days and lose everything’. He could have done business and ministry together. Why does he need to leave the business? But I tell you, none who carries the Bible, and serves the Lord will ever beg for food. The Lord will help them to be a blessing to many others.
This is how worldly man will talk, but do not worry about all this. Life is beyond all this. What is the Lord telling about you? ‘You are precious in my sight! Are you truly worthy of it? If not, change yourselves to be wonderful people before the Lord. Your beauty is in your wonderful testimonial life. That is what will portray you as being wonderful people in the Lord’s sight. The Lord will honour such children. You are worried that many do not respect you. My children, you might say. Brother,” my family don’t respect me.” Do not worry , the Lord is honouring you. Never worry about what others talk about you. You walk diligently before the Lord. Be honest in all that you do. God bless you.
Prayer: Loving Lord, we thank you! You have given a wonderful word of encouragement and have revived us by your saying, ‘You are precious in my sight’. Lord I thank you for placing this word that will rekindle faith in the life of my children. From this day, let them receive honour. Let their name and fame spread throughout the land. Grant them a peaceful life. Let their lives be like sweet smelling aroma, before you, and spread around them wherever they go.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen!
Dearly Beloved in Christ! I bless you in the incomparable name of Jesus Christ, the one Who created us, the one who made us and who never forgets us.
It seems like the year has just started and we have come to believe that it is the seventh month after six months have passed. You are faithfully waiting, what the Lord has in store for you this July, and what promise He has in store for you. So, The Lord has come directly to your house today with a good word.
Let’s read 1 Kings 6:13 which says, “And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.”
Israel means the children of God. So the Lord says unto you and me, “I will come to your home and I will dwell with you today So He guarantees that He will come to your house and will stay with you and will never leave you”.
One day the Lord met Jacob and promised him. He tells to Jacob, “Go back to your hometown and settle down in your life so that you can have good influence and good fortune wherever you go”. God took care of Jacob wherever he went, he gave him food to eat and clothes to wear, helped him to earn wealth and inherit gold and silver, many animals, many men and women, and return to the town with his entourage. What did the Lord said? I will not leave you until I have done what I told you to do.
Today the Lord is looking at you and saying to you that I will not leave you nor forsake you until I do like what I did for Jacob. Similarly, all the promises made to you will be fulfilled. Scripture says that all the good words that God spoke to the people of Israel did not fall short.
Everything is accomplished. All the good special words that the Lord has spoken to you today will be fulfilled. A lot of good things auspicious things are going to happen in your family this July. This is the verse that promises us this month that he will not abandon you.
I know a poor brother who is great singer and he had a major accident in Pondicherry area, his whole body was broken, so they brought him and admitted him to a hospital in Chennai. His wife came and saw him and said that he will not be able to maintain a family and he will not able to survive anymore. Even if he survives, it would be very difficult to have a family life and work. She picked up her child and went to her mother’s home. Then she never returned to the hospital. The wife, who promised to be with him in good and bad, in trouble and in loss, left him and ran away. But the Lord did not abandon him. Then I prayed to the Lord for him and by the grace of the Lord he regained his voice. After that again he became a great singer. Our loved ones may abandon us but the Lord will never leave us nor forsake us.
Prayer:
Our Heavenly father, Oh Lord you are the Lord who accepts whoever is being forsaken. The Lord who said even if your father and mother forsake you, I will gather you, now you will come directly to the abandoned children home. Rebuild their lives Lord. Today you do a miracle for my children in the cause for which they have been abandoned. Let my children say in the days to come that my Lord will not forsake me and my Lord will not forget me. Let my children be a great witness that the Lord’s grace is in them to live again. May the lives of my children blossom again. Let my children rise and shine again. Let all the good things that are stagnant happen. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
