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 Isaiah 32:4, “Also the heart of the rash will understand knowledge. And the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand that the heart and the tongue of the person is equally important. The heart plans and their minds are intent upon it. The liberal heart devices liberal things concerning God and desires that God will grant him wisdom and prudence, The heart of those that hurried and reckless. “The stammerers” are those who have no power to speak clearly and fluently.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, the Bible says, there are many plans in a man’s heart. Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel that will stand. And he who understands will find good. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Hence keep your heart with all vigilance. For from it flows the springs of life. The Bible says, The tongue has incredible power. The tongue is a little member but boasts great things. At times it defiles our whole body. All animals, birds, reptiles and every creatures of the sea can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind. But no man can tame the tongue. We bless and curse with the same tongue. For Death and Life are in the power of the tongue. Which means that both Death and Life are in the way you use your tongue. Surrender to the Lord by saying like prophet Isaiah “’ Lord I am undone. Because I am a man of unclean lips.”
Therefore we need to be careful while we use the tongue. For the Bible says, If anyone does not hurt another by his tongue he is a perfect man. May God help all those who read this message to be wise in their conversation. Let your conversation be seasoned with grace. For the lips of the wise spread knowledge. Often men do not reject what is evil. He has stopped to be wise and to do good. And the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. The fullness of the heart springs through the tongue.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, It is sometimes painful to see some youngsters do things in a hasty manner. They never pray to the Lord before they begin to do any particular thing, rather in a hurried manner they make their own decision and finally land up in a mess or in some kind of unnecessary problems or difficult situation. They get entangled in unwanted issues. Later they would regret for the wrong decision they had taken. Then they would cry out to God to rescue them out of their problem. For such kind of youngsters, God is going to change your heart to realize sound knowledge and good understanding. Then you will pray to the Lord before you take up any decision in your life. And you will also be able to make the right decision in your life. You will never suffer for your hasty decision. God will bless you when you plead your cause before Him. He will solve all your problems.
As children of God you ought to be patient. Those who have patience do things wisely. In the days to come you will do all things with much discretion? May you keep your heart with all diligence for out of it springs the issues of life. May the Lord protect your heart and anoint your tongue by the help of the Holy Spirit. When the Spirit of God descends upon you, then you will not stammer, but speak fluently. God will touch your tongue with a rod of God’s power and heal your tongue. The bondages of every tongue are being broken. So you will speak good things, that which is fruitful and desirable to God. God bless you with sound knowledge and good understanding. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for teaching us how to use our tongue and reason with our heart. Lord help us to adhere to your words and apply in our life so that we may not get entangled in unwanted problems but maintain a peaceful life. Teach us to walk diligently, intelligently and with better perception of all the happenings around.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given you today is from the book of Hebrews 11:1, “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see”. We need to have strong faith in God. Learn to put your trust in the Lord for He will always be your ever present help.
The bible talks about a person named Abraham. Abraham is the father of faith. Abraham was strong in his faith. Abraham did not have a child for many years. At the age of 75, God promised Abraham that He would bless him with a son. When he was 100 years old, the Lord fulfilled the promise of blessing him with a baby boy (Isaac). Hebrews 11:17 says, “By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son…”. Abraham had great faith in God. He knew that God had a plan for him and so without any further questions, he did what the Lord told him. God told Abraham to sacrifice his only son. Even at this moment, Abraham had great faith in God. As Abraham did exactly what the Lord had asked him, the Lord spared his son’s life and gave Abraham a goat to be sacrificed. God blessed Abraham and his generation.
You must also learn to build your faith in God. God is the only one whom you can trust completely. He knows every desire of your heart. Whenever you do anything, you must know that through Christ you will be able to finish what you have been called for. God encourages you to do well in life because you are very dear to Him. God will not test you beyond your capacity. He is a compassionate God. He will do the best for you.
Dearly beloved, you need to be focused in what you do. The bible says, “Faith is the confidence in what you hope.” Learn to trust God at all times. Have faith in Him. If there is any problem that you are facing and do not know what to do, just trust in the Lord and tell Him your problem. He will be with you and guide you.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, I pray that Your children may grow strong in their faith in You. Father, may Your children experience Your faithfulness in their lives. May You guide them and show them the way in which they should go. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
My Dearly Beloved, 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 Isaiah 52:7 , “ How lovely are the mountains, are the feet of him who brings good news. Who announces peace, and brings good news of happiness, who announces salvation. And says to Zion, Your God reigns. They immediately spread the joyful tidings.”
“My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we learn that the Gospel proclaims liberty to all those bound with fears. Let those weary and heavy laden under the burden of sin find relief in Christ, shake themselves from the dust of their doubts and fears and loose themselves from those bonds. The price paid by the Redeemer for our salvation, was not silver or gold or corruptible things, but His own precious blood. Do we seek victory over every sin? Then God requires holiness in us.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, The good news is that the Lord Jesus Reigns. Christ Himself brought these good tidings first. His ministers proclaim these good tidings to all mankind. They keep themselves clean from the pollutions of the world. God calls all to use the liberty Christ has provided from the bondage of sin and Satan. Thus all those who serve the Lord God Almighty are kept under special protection. And those who believe this will not suffer from fear.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, the above verse describes the return of the Jews to their own land. Prophet Isaiah sees in vision the heralds announcing their return to Jerusalem running on the distant hills. A herald bearing good news is a beautiful object and he says, that his feet are beautiful. And his running to convey the message is all the more beautiful.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, In those days it was the custom of placing watchmen on the walls of the city who would caution the people about the approaching enemy or about the coming of the messenger from a far distance to announce good news. When the herald brought in good news from distant hills there was great rejoicing. They rejoiced at all the tokens of favour showered upon his people. They not only rejoiced but also sang together lifting up their voices with praises and thanksgiving.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, just as the herald brought good news to the Jews about their return to their own land, God will bring good news to you. The Visa, for which you had applied long time back, will be granted for you to settle abroad. Likewise God will bring in the good news of your promotion. Or maybe you might be transferred to the location you are looking forward. You will be offered a brand new job with a good package. The news of your marriage is getting fixed. God sends His angels as spirits to attend on His children and meet all their needs. These are in a way like the heralds who carry good tidings to the children of God. The feet of such heralds will be beautiful as they carry message sent from God. For the Bible says, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of Lights, with whom there is no variation Or shadow of turning.” God bless you..
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you Lord for sending in the messenger to announce the good news of peace and joy. Thank you Lord for being so mindful of us, and bringing in all the good news for our family and our personal life. Help us to enjoy the gifts that God grants us and also teach us to rejoice over it.
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 Proverbs 3:34, “ Surely He scorns the scornful, But gives grace to the humble.’’
My dear brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand, that the Lord is so concerned about His children. God exalts those who humble themselves before God. Humbleness is one of the characteristics of good personality. May be you are lacking this quality in life. Until yesterday you might have been a proud person. Pride has blinded your eyes from doing the right things. Therefore you have been caught up in one problem or another. God wants to help you live a good and peaceful life. He wants you to progress or move forward in your life. He wants you to be successful in your life. His mercy is very essential to lead a good life.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, make a decision to put away pride. Be not haughty or short tempered. The Bible says, behold the proud, his soul is not upright in him. He transgresses by wine, for he is a proud man. And He does not stay at home. He enlarges his desire and cannot be satisfied. He heaps up for himself. Ask God to forgive you of your pride. Say Lord I humble myself before you, Like Mary teach me to be humble. She said, ”Behold the maid servant of the Lord ! Let it be to me according to your word.”She humbled herself to the lord and therefore she found favour in HIS sight to carry the baby Jesus in her womb. Similarly you are going to hold many good things in your hand. You may even carry a holy generation in your womb.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, you need to turn to God to receive new mercies from God. Place your family, your children, your business, at the feet of the Lord. You need to pray for your needs and be thankful to God for all His blessings. Begin the day with prayer. With Jesus in the family makes a happy, happy home. If Jesus lives in your home then there will be rejoicing all the days of your life. If you need to live without being destroyed and if you need to rejoice all the days of your life, then you need to be satisfied by His new mercies every morning. That is why Moses cries unto the Lord saying, “Oh satisfy us early with your mercy, That we may rejoice all the days of our life according to days, in which you have afflicted us. The years in which we have seen evil.”
My dear brothers and sisters, It is true that you are working hard to enjoy a happy secured life, Therefore you are sacrificing many things in life in order to enjoy a peaceful life. So you need to beg unto the Lord for new mercies each day of your life especially in the early morning. When you search for God in the early morning you will receive his blessings and you will be successful in all your endeavours throughout the day. Never think of a life without Jesus Christ. His faithfulness is new every morning. Hallelujah! He will accompany you wherever you go, guide you and protect you. He will bless the work of your hands and prosper you. Only then you will be able to live a happy life according to the days you had been afflicted. God will do supernatural miracles in your life and you will receive protection. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank You for helping us to know the value of being humble in our lives. Lord have pity on us, and take away our shame and failures. Help us to see better days in life. Give us days of prosperity according to the days of our poverty. Touch us and bless us and our children that we may enjoy the days of our life. . In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My dearly Beloved Brothers and Sisters, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Genesis 31:42,” If God of MY father, the God of Abraham and the fear of Isaac, had not been on my side, surely now you would have sent me away empty handed. God saw my affliction and the labour of my hands and rebuked you last night.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above passage we come to learn that we ought to have the grace of God. To obtain his grace we need to walk diligently before God. Only then He will rescue us from all danger and harm that could befall us in our life. God is mindful of us and our family. He knows all our needs. God blesses both the small and the great. Here in this passage we find how God rescued Jacob from the cruel hands of his uncle Laban. Jacob was one of the sons of Isaac. He feared God and walked in His ways. Jacob after receiving all the blessings from his father departed from Canaan to Haran the place where his uncle Laban dwelt.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Isaac and his wife Rebecca wanted to send Jacob to his uncle’s house in order to make his dwelling. They did not have wealth to give him to do his business. But they blessed him with all their heart, and sent him away to his uncle’s house with the hope that he will do well there and prosper in his business. The Blessing of his parents was so important to him.
He went with staff and hand and crossed River Jordan. But Jacob worked in his uncle’s house day and night tirelessly for His living. He worked for seven years for his wife Rachel but he was cheated. So he served another seven years and married her. He continued to work for another six years for his family. Thus he slogged all his days both in summer and winter and in chilly weather. His salary was changed for 10 times. Later he made a covenant and became partner with his uncle. But God blessed the labour of his hands abundantly. Because of Jacob, his uncle Laban too was blessed. They both had great wealth and prospered much.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Many times wild animals killed the sheep and at times some men stole the sheep from the fold during the night time so his salary was deducted. He was penalised by his uncle very much. His sleep was far from him, says the word of the Lord. Thus he suffered much in the hands of his uncle Laban.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, May be you too are suffering like Jacob in your life. Never fail to get the blessing of your parents. It will help you in the long run. Your beginning may be small but your end will be fruitful and blessed. Despite your hard effort your boss is displeased with you. He doesn’t pay you sufficiently. But God is mindful of you and your problems. God is bringing all this to an end today. Even though Laban taxed him and reduced his salary several times God stood on his side and increased Jacob more and more.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Having become a wealthy man Jacob decided to return to Canaan his father’s place with his wives and children. Though he came with staff and hand now he had two companies. He was on his way, but Laban started chasing him to plunder him of all his wealth. Therefore God warned Laban not to speak anything against Jacob and never to harm him or plunder him. But to make a peace treaty and send him peacefully to his father’s place.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God will even warn your enemies who stand against you and your family. He will obstruct them from harming you and rescue you from all your enemies and also protect and save you from all those who cause trouble to you. Therefore be cheerful and rejoice in the Lord talways. God will keep you in perfect peace. The Bible says, the Lord gives strength to his people, the Lord blesses his people with peace.
God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord we are grateful to you for protecting us from our enemies and helping us from all our troubles. Teach us to be faithful and honest to our taskmasters like Jacob, who in spite of all hardship endured patiently for God to bless him. Increase us too oh Lord, as you increased Jacob.
In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen.
