I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Exodus 33:19, “I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious and will show compassion on whom I will show compassion.”
From the above context we learn that Moses is very earnest with God.. Moses pleads to God to go before them, and he said, to God Jehovah, “If your presence does not go with us do not, bring us up, from here. ” Moses understands that only if God goes before them, it confirms that His people have found grace in God’s sight, and they are a separate nation from all the other people who are upon the face of the earth.” Moses also asked God to reveal His glory as an indication, that God was present with them. Then God speaks the above words to Moses assuring that He, Himself will make all His goodness pass before them. And He will be gracious and compassionate to His people. He was a God who did justice to His people by going before them in the form of thick clouds to guide them on their way, in the daytime and a pillar of fire to give them light during the night time.
Our God is not only a God of Compassion but also a God of Justice. He rewards those who seek him diligently. Our Lord intercedes on our behalf to God the Father, to save us from all our problems and tribulations. He is a God of all comfort. He comforts those in agony and in tears. He delivers them from their captivity. Many are entangled in the captivity of sickness, disease, debts, financial crisis, loss in business, unemployment, failure in marriage, and many such problems. At times your own people cause unbearable troubles and ruin your lives. But God of compassion readily waits to save you from such people. He directly makes known to you the schemes and plans with which they visit your homes.
When God of compassion rises up and begins to operate on your behalf then the glory of God will descend upon you in a marvellous manner to do justice for you and your family. He will dispel all darkness from your life and cause you to shine in the future. God is waiting to emerge powerfully to speedily act for your good cause whenever you are trapped by evil forces. He is compassionately watching over you to assist you in your affliction. He watches over your children, their education that has been blocked for various reasons, your family relationship that has been broken, your profession that is dwindling, your health, which is wanting immediate remedy , your ministry that has not been successful, and many such things regarding your life. What will God do when He rises up? God of compassion rises up to do justice for you.
Through this message I wish to share how God intervened in the life of a brother to do justice for him. This brother has been working in Dubai for more than fifteen years. He sent me an email asking me to pray for his deliverance. He was trapped in huge debts. He had credit card debts, bank loans and private loans and many other debts. He was unable to recover from these debts. So for security sake the court had seized his passport, and did not allow him to go anywhere out of the country. The Police officials had filed several cases against him. So he was caught up in a place from where he was not able to visit his native home in South India. He couldn’t attend any good function or ceremonies. He struggled in this manner for three years. Even if he went to the airport to escape he was caught by the police officers, He was filled with remorse and regrets. He couldn’t share his problem with anyone. He had faith in God. He had written in the mail that only the God of compassion can deliver him from this situation. I was impressed by his email which referred to the God of Compassion. That brother had written that if God of compassion would have compassion on him and release his passport and deliver him from this horrible situation he will remain grateful to God all the days of His life.
I prayed for him fervently and sent a mail in reply, asking him to “ Commit his ways unto the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.” He faithfully held on to this simple word of God and kept praying over his problem. It so happened that after a week he received a call from the court in Sharjah, asking him to come in person, pay a small fine and get back his passport. The police officials had nullified all his cases, and knowing that he was unable to pay back the dues they exempted him from heavy payment and also he was reinstated in the job. What a miracle ! Halleluiah. God had done justice to this brother who was caught up in great tribulation. My dearly beloved, God will do justice for you also if you trust in Him and commit your ways unto the Lord. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank You for being compassionate to us. For doing justice to us and our children. Lord help us to put our trust completely in you. Teach us to exercise faith in God and do His will.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given you for today is from the book of, Genesis 24:63. “And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening. And he lifted his eyes. And looked at Rebekah who dismounted from her camel. Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent and Rebekah became his wife. “
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, some of you are crying because even though you are ready for marriage, no proposals, are coming your way. Your outcry is being heard by God. Behold God is sending an angel today to bring in the right partner in your life. In future there should be no crying or weeping regarding your marriage, in life. God will bring in a good, suitable, god fearing partner for you.
The Bible says, To everything there is a season. A time for every purpose under heaven. God has made everything beautiful in its time. For there is nothing better for man than, to rejoice and to do good in his life. Therefore be cheerful and rejoice in the Lord always. As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth and given him power to eat, of it, to receive his heritage, and rejoice in his labour. This is the gift of God.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, we see in the Bible how Abraham sent his main servant Eliezer to go to his own country and to his kindred and take his wife for his son from there. So Eliezer took ten of his masters camels and, departed to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor. There he met Rebekah who came out with pitcher on her shoulder to meet Eliezer. She let her pitcher down and gave him a drink. She said to him “ I will draw water for your camels also.” Eliezer knew that she was the right girl for her master’s son. According to God’s guidance and wisdom he selected Rebekah to be the wife of his master’s son. Eliezer asked Laban the brother of Rebekah not to hinder him from taking her to his master’s house. So Laban blessed Rebekah and sent her away to her husband’s house. And one day when Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening he lifted up his eyes. And looked at Rebekah who dismounted from her camel. Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent and Rebekah became his wife.“God’s plan was fulfilled in the life of Isaac. His sorrow over the death of his mother, was changed to joy.
My Dear brothers and Sisters , In the same way the Lord will open the marriage, door for those of you who are yet to be married. Therefore cast your burden upon the Lord for He cares for you. Remember that all things are possible to them that believe on His name. For nothing is impossible with God. Surely there is a hereafter, and your hope will not be cut off.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you Lord for revealing to us from the word of God how to secure a life partner through the example of Isaac and Rebekah. We pray that You will provide the right partner into our lives. Teach us to wait upon You O Lord and not be hasty in making the decision. Bless us Lord with God fearing partners.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Genesis 32:26, “The Angel of God said, Let Me go for the day breaks. But Jacob said, I will not let you go, unless You bless me.”
Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above passage we learn that the Angel of God by an admirable condescension speaks to Jacob, “ Let Me go for the day breaks.” But Jacob was reluctant, to leave the Angel of God. He resolves he will have a blessing even though all his bones are put out of joint, than allow the Angel to leave him without a blessing. Having been left alone he spread his fears before God in Prayer, for prayer is indeed wrestling with God. Nothing requires more vigour and unceasing exertion than wrestling because it is an emblem of the true spirit of faith and prayer. Jacob kept his ground, though the struggle continued long. This did not shake his faith or silence his prayer. So he prevailed and was blessed. Jacob relied on God for his sustenance.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Jacob went to his uncle’s place with empty hand and a staff. The only blessing he had while he went to his uncle’s place was the blessing of His parents. But now God had blessed him with many children, servants, cattle, and much wealth. So he decided to leave his uncle and return back to Canaan his Father’s place. He wanted to go back and settle there with his wives and children. The Bible says, He returned with two companies. God had blessed him abundantly. But he feared to enter into His Fathers place, because he feared his elder brother Esau, who had earlier planned to kill Jacob for grabbing all the Blessing’s from his father Isaac. There was a family enmity that continued for over a period of time. Being very tired all the servants and his wives and children were fast asleep. But Jacob could not sleep. He was filled with fear, while returning home to see his Father. He was gripped with fear. He was afraid of facing the consequences awaiting him in his homeland. He was alone by the river side of Jabbok. And he cried out to God in deep distress that God should help him, from the hands of his elder brother. For he was afraid that he and his entire family, his wife and children, his servants would be destroyed.
During this critical time God came to meet him as the Angel of God. And Jacob struggled with him and prevailed. God blessed Jacob as He had promised him, while he was on his way to his uncle’s place. The very same night God changed the heart of his brother Esau, and he came to meet Jacob on his way to Canaan. Esau embraced Jacob and kissed him and a peace treaty was made between the brothers after many long years. Thus God changed the situation in favour of Jacob his beloved. Though the night was agonious, God granted him a peaceful morning.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, today as you are reading this message with much grief and sorrow, God Himself comes down to join with you in your problems. Share your difficulties with God. Often you share your sorrows with others who cannot help you in any way. But you never understand that there is a God beside you who can help you from all your troubles. You don’t realize to seek God at times of trouble. Learn to share your problems with God, He will solve all your problems in an amicable manner and set you free. May be you youngsters, cannot share your problems with your own parents but when you share with God however big your problem might seem to be God will counsel and solve all your problems. Start sharing with God. Make Him the Lord and Master of your life. He will bless you as He blessed Jacob, and change the worst situation in favour of you. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank You for teaching us the importance of Prayer. May we look up to God when we are in trouble? Teach us not to share our problems with others who cannot help us. Make us to understand that we need to put our confidence in God rather than man.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Luke 19:10, “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
Jesus was on the way to Jericho, and there he healed a blind man. This was a proof that he was the Messiah. The incident with Zacchaeus happens in Jericho as Jesus was passing through. The healing of the blind man spread quickly so that the crowd began to gather as Jesus passed through the city of Jericho.
Those who sincerely desire a sight of Christ like Zacchaeus, will break through opposition and take pains to see Him. And Christ invited Himself to Zacchaeus house. Wherever Christ comes he opens the heart and inclines it to receive Him. He that has a mind to know Christ shall be known of Him. And those whom Christ calls must humble themselves and come down.
Zacchaeus gave proof publically that he had become a true convert. He does not look to be justified by his works like the Pharisee, but by his good works, he shows the sincerity of his faith and repentance. Zacchaeus is declared to be a happy man. He had turned from sin to God. Now that he is saved from his sins, from the guilt of them, from the power of them, he is entitled to receive all the benefits of Salvation. Christ had come to his house, and where Christ comes he brings salvation with Him.
Zacchaeus did not expect that he would be entertaining the Son Of God in his own house. As a rich important and chief tax collector he was an individual who was hated by the Jews and despised by the Romans. For they considered him to be a swindler or a thief. But Jesus did not ignore him or condemn him. He took time to come to him, to call him, and open up for him a new path of salvation. For Jesus had come to seek and to save that which was lost. No doubt God had been preparing the heart of this wealthy yet detested tax collector. For God is able to discern the motives of every man. And this meeting with Christ brought a sinner to repentance.
Have you received the salvation of God. If not seek Him and He will be found by you. If you reject Him then He will also reject you and it will be too late to be saved. Because salvation comes from God by grace through faith. And because you have not received salvation you would have incurred great loss in your life. God wants you to get back all that you have lost in your life. Make God the portion of your life. Say Lord “I am Yours and You are mine. Nothing shall separate me from the Love of God.” If you truly make this commitment, God will save you from the mouth of the grave, and the gate of hell shall not prevail you. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Heavenly Father thank you, that you came to seek and to save a lost sinner like me, and for the amazing love and grace you have bestowed upon me. Thank you for forgiving my sins, for bringing salvation into my heart and for making it Your dwelling place. Keep me humble and meek. May I be used for your glory in all that I say and do.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of 1 Chronicles 28:9, “If you seek Him , He will be found by you. But if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.”
From the above context we understand that it is very necessary to seek the Lord and His righteousness. If not the Lord will reject us forever. Here King David speaks to the assembly of Israel; The king told the members in the assembly that it was his desire to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord. But God had instructed him clearly that his son, Solomon should build the temple. Moreover he said that God had chosen his son Solomon to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
The Lord said to David, “It is your son Solomon who shall build My House and My Courts, for I have chosen him to be My son, and I will be His Father. Moreover I will establish his kingdom forever if he is steadfast, to observe My commandments.” So David was very concerned about his son Solomon. Through the above reference David reminds his son Solomon, to be careful to observe the commandments of God. He reminds his son, about the greatness of God. Though he was the king of Israel he never forgot his small beginnings. He remembers his lowly position. He never forgets that God took him up from the sheepfold, from following the sheep to be the ruler over God’ chosen people.
Therefore having recollected his past life and how God had lifted him to the level of a great king and how the Lord had magnified him, he cautions his son Solomon, to seek the Lord with all of his heart. He said to him “If you seek Him, He will be found by you. But if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.” He not only advises him to seek the Lord but also admonishes him to seek God’s favour, wisdom, and good understanding to rule over his people wisely. Thus we see David as a good father to his son. And since Solomon obeyed David God blessed him with wisdom and wealth.
Are you willing to seek the Lord with all of your heart? Are you refusing to accept Him as the Lord of your life? Think well . For if you neglect God then you will be at a loss. Your life will come to an end. As long as you have God with you then you will be successful. Once you leave Him, He will neglect you also. Having God with you is the greatest power of life. Alone with God you can achieve marvellous things in life. You will be the winner and not the victim nor the loser. David proved himself great while he boldly fought against Goliath single handed because the Lord was with Him. Is the Lord with you? If not make Him your friend, the lover of your soul. Have an intimate relationship with God from the moment you read this message, never postpone to possess Him, inside your heart. He will bring healing to you. He will bring victory to you. He is an Honest God whom you can trust. Men make promises but fail to keep it. But God is unchanging . He says “For I am the Lord, “’ I do not change.”God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank You for your servant David who was a man after your own heart. Help us to be like him. . Be with us Lord, as you were with David, and make us victorious in life. Teach us to seek after you and your precepts and never to reject You or hurt Your feelings in any way. May we set our mind on things above and not on the things of the Earth. Let Christ reign our hearts.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
