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 28:15 “ Behold I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land, for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken, to you.”
From the above context we come to understand that our God will send an angel before us to take care of us, to keep us, wherever we go and will not leave us until He fulfils all that He has promised to do for us. It is an encouragement for every child of God to be reminded so emphatically that the Lord is caring for us, and watching over us. No matter where we go or what we do and that He will be with us always. And will certainly fulfil every promise and pledge that He has purposed towards us.
This promise is clearly for the Lord’s chosen nation of Israel. This promise was made by the God of Israel, and creator of the universe, who neither slumbers nor sleeps. Whose promises are guaranteed, whose statutes are binding and whose covenant will never fail. God spoke to Jacob through the above verse, assuring that He will keep a watch over Jacob, guard and protect him, And He will be with him wherever he goes, and will again bring him back to his father’s land.
Jacob was not that of one who simply feared and trusted in God. He looked only to God to make him to dwell, in safety. God manifested himself and his favour to Jacob when he was asleep. Jacob saw a ladder, which reached from earth to heaven. The angels going up and coming down and God himself at the head of it. This represents the providence of God, the togetherness of God and Jacob. All God’s favours come to us, and our services go to him, by Christ. God expected that the Messiah should come from Jacob. Christ is the greatest blessing of the world. And all that are blessed are blessed in Him.
Our God is a God of promise. For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. I was preaching the word of God as usual in Anbarin Padathil Oru Naal Meeting. I said after these days, God will bring into your life, favour and kindness. I said “God will reunite all separated families, just as Joseph and Mary.” When Joseph knew that his betrothed wife was already pregnant he tried to put her aside. But an angel appeared to Joseph in a dream, and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid, to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she will bring forth a son, and you shall call his name, Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. ” So Joseph did as the angel, of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife.
I said, an angel has already gone out from the presence of God to perform a miracle for a separated couple. In January, I received a mail from a sister, stating that she was pleased by the message, hearing that a angel had gone to perform a miracle amidst separated couples and to reunite them in their family life. She believed that the angel would surely visit her daughter in law and convince her of the importance of living together with her son who was in deep distress. Her daughter in law had gone to her mother’s house for delivery, but even after she had delivered a male baby she did not inform her husband and did not return back to her husband. This sister was in deep distress over the issue. After attending the meeting, she had gone back to her home. To her surprise after some time, the daughter in law had come to her home with the baby. It was a thrilling moment to her family. They simply couldn’t believe their eyes. She stated in her mail “Brother I didn’t know that things will happen so soon.” Our God is a wonder working God. God did what he spoke through his servant of God.
Yes my dear child, God will send his angels to minister unto you to guard you and protect you and also to solve all your problems for He is mindful of you and your children. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for sending an angel to solve all our problems. Teach us to listen and abide by the words of the prophet who preach the word of God. Make us to rejoice in You Oh! God all the days of our life. Help us to look to God always like Jacob that we might receive the blessing of God.
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 2 Kings 13 : 22.23. “And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days, of Jehoahaz But the Lord was gracious to them, had compassion on them, and regarded them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not yet destroy them or cast them for his presence.”
We understand that our God is a merciful God. God’s mercy is bigger than any mistake we have made. God is rich in mercy because of his great love, for us. He loved his people Israel; He guarded them, protected them and rescued them from the hands of Pharaoh. God saved them not because of their righteous deeds, but because of His mercy.
The people of Israel often provoked God in many ways. They went after pagan gods and forgot the living God. So God has many ways to punish a provoking people. Trouble comes sometimes from that point whence we least feared it. After their victory over Syria, Jehoahaz ruled Israel for nearly seventeen years. During his reign he did evil in the sight of God. So God allowed the invasion of king Hazael king of Syria to interfere and cause trouble to the people of Israel now and then, that these might thus turn to the living God. But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
But the Lord was gracious to them, had compassion on them, and regarded them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and would not yet destroy them or cast them from his presence .For He says, “ I am the Lord, I change not. Therefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed.”’ Even in his wrath God thinks upon mercy. While He was still punishing Israel, by the sword of Hazael, He was yet careful, not to make a full end, not to allow the affliction to proceed, too far. He still preserved the nation and kept it, in being. God had respect unto the people of Israel. He considered them, kept them in his mind, because of the covenant, with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Today God wants to show his mercy to all those of you who are reading this message. Especially to those, who have been despised, rejected by your loved ones, and those considered outcast. This is your turn day, to find grace and the mercy
of God. For many of you are living so forlorn and desperate in life. Some even wish to die because of the terrible situation, you are going through. You are living in great sorrow, pain and agony. Because you couldn’t secure a good job, or you never got settled as of now, you have incurred great loss in your business. You are a failure in life. God is showing you mercy today. So do not be discouraged, nor dismayed. He is reaching out his righteous right hand to meet your needs. Be cheerful in the Lord. He will change your sorrow into joy. He will make your mourning into dancing. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank You for being so gracious and merciful to us. You have forgiven all our transgression and iniquity and saved us from the mouth of Hades. Since you have kept your covenant to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, You have blessed us too with your mercy. Therefore we praise you and adore You.
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 3 John 1:2, “Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.” .
Today God is calling each one of you as ‘My Beloved’. You are beloved in the sight of God. According to the world, you might be considered to be a person of less importance. But the Lord says, “My Beloved I wish, you prosper in all things just as your soul prospers.” The Lord wants you to do well in your education, your life, work place, your ministry and so on. Today God wants to perform a miracle in your life in the area where you are weak. The strength of the Lord is enough to help you prosper in life.
We see in the book of 2 Corinthians 12:9, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Apostle Paul faced shortcomings in his life. He asked God to take away his shortcomings. But God said to him, “My grace is sufficient for you. For my strength is made perfect in your weakness”. Apostle Paul rejoiced in the strength of the Lord.
You may be worried about some situation that you are going through. You might be facing some problems at your workplace or even in your family life. Do not lose hope. The Lord is always by your side. His strength is enough for you to overcome all your weaknesses. You are God’s beloved.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I pray that You may bless Your children. Lord give them the strength that they need to overcome all their weaknesses. May they prosper in all that they do. 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.
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.
