My dear brothers and sisters, I greet and bless everyone in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Psalms 91:1 “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
My dearly beloved, if you receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour and walk along with Him, then you receive an unknown power within you. It is the work of the Holy Spirit. You are of God, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us. There is a power that works inside of you, when you have Jesus as the Lord of your life. As a child of God is endowed with grit and power of the Lord, no one can dare to come against them. People will say, He is a child of God so He possesses the power of Christ therefore it is better not to go against him. People will avoid, such godly people. They will think many times before they do anything against them.
We see in the Bible about Abimelech who tells Isaac “We have certainly seen that the Lord is with you.” A child of God is easily recognized by his behaviour and his testimony. Goliath was a Philistine giant who came against the army of the Israelite forces. He stood with pride. He stood on his own strength, He boasted of himself, about his talents, about his might, about his skill. He was backed up by Satan himself. Whereas David, a small shepherd boy stood in front of him. David was zealous to defend the Lords people. David though newly anointed as the king of Israel, yet he was a young boy. He was deeply offended by the giants, haughty mocking challenges. David said to Goliath, “But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.” He went in the name of Jesus. He took a sling and five small pebbles and swung around him. One little pebble hit the fore head of Goliath and he fell flat to the ground. And David killed him with a sword. Such a great man could easily be defeated by David a small shepherd boy. How was this possible? It was because he was endowed by the power of God. He was backed up by his heavenly Father, the God of Israel. That was the difference.
My dearly beloved, if you are in Christ, you are a new being. ‘Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new.’ For God has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ. Therefore you inherit the nature of God. His power. His Strength and His boldness.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for giving us the power and strength to overcome the obstacles in our life. Help us to abide under the shadow of the Almighty. And thus protect us from the oncoming danger. Help your children to depend on the Lord God and walk in His ways, in obedience to God’s word. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My dearly 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, John 1:12, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become the children of God to those who believe in His name.”
My dearly beloved, there is real power in the name of Jesus. We are dead to our sins. Without the Power of Jesus, we are dead to all things that are holy. Only Jesus has the power to bring what’s dead, back to Life. Jesus is the only way to life. He came as a witness to testify about the Light.
The Bible says, He came to His own and His own did not receive him. But to all who did receive Him who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God. Hence, we are the sons and daughters in Christ Jesus; and He is our Father; whereby we call Him ‘Abba Father.’ As we are His children, God has sent the Holy Spirit, into our hearts, prompting us to call out ‘Abba Father’. Isn’t it a great privilege for us to call the Everlasting Father, the God of the whole universe to acknowledge Him as Abba Father! God says, “Heaven is My throne, and Earth is My footstool”. He is a great and a mighty God. When we make this God as our Father, then we become His children. The greatest blessing in this world is to receive Jesus as our father. Both material and spiritual blessings come from the Father of lights Himself. He is the only fountain of blessing.
My dearly beloved, strengthen your relationship with the Father. He knows all your needs. When you receive Jesus as your Father, then He will come down in a marvellous way and will deliver you from your problem. The Bible says, “It shall come to pass; that before they call, I will answer, and while they are still speaking I will hear.” This is the nature of our God. All that you need to do is to believe in Jesus. Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame. To inherit the blessing of the Father, you need to believe in Him.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I submit my dear children into Your loving hands. Lord, help My children to realize that they have a Father in Heaven who cares for them. Teach them to lean on You for all their needs. May they experience Your mighty power in their lives. Give them the desire to believe on His name. Let them know that there is Power in Your name; and that Power is mighty enough to deliver them from all their problems. May You give them a happy life. Be with them and bless them. 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 Jeremiah 31:3, “Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee”. Again I will build you, and you shall be rebuilt, O virgin of Israel! You shall again be adorned with your tambourines, And shall go forth in the dances of those who rejoice. You shall yet plant vines on the mountains of Samaria; The planters shall plant and eat them as ordinary food.
My dear Brothers and Sisters we have been experiencing the love of Jesus in one way or the other. God builds up the ruined places of your life. The Lord says, I will build you up. And you shall be rebuilt. Many have lost their family lives because of divorce or because you have been forsaken by your wife or your husband. To such people the Lord says, I will rebuild your families. Your ruined life will be re established. Believe in the Lord. He will do marvelous things in your life. The Bible says, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him .
I wish to share the testimony of a sister Thilagavathi who had been married and later divorced for various reason . She attended our Anbarin Padathil Oru Naal Fasting Prayer Meeting and prayed earnestly. As her case was under way and hearing was about to happen soon. She was in great distress as to how the court verdict would turn out to be. And what would be the state of her life. But the Lord called her by name Thilagavathy during the name calling session and assured that she would join her husband very soon. She couldn’t believe her ears. She happened to attend that meeting by her friend who took pity on her and brought her there. Adjacent week the hearing came and Sister Thilagavathy had to been to the court. To her surprise her husband who came over there told her that he will withdraw the case and will take her home. Sister Thilagavathy couldn’t believe her eyes, her joy knew no bounds. She is now living a very happy married life. God rebuilt her ruined life. It’s amazing to know how God works in the life of His children. To those who have not settled in life as yet, God will settle you soon. You will have a happy married life. The Lord will open the door of marriage for you.
God loved David. He exhibited his love to David by blessing him with a wise son Solomon, to sit on his throne after him. Hiram king of Tyre wrote to Solomon. saying” Because the Lord loves His people, He has made you king over them.” Hiram also said , “Blessed be the Lord, God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, for He has given King David a wise son, endowed with prudence and understanding. In the same manner God will bless you with a generation that would be wise, prudent, and with good understanding. Many of you are longing to have the gift of a child. God will soon bless those of you who are crying for a child. The Bible says, God grants the barren woman, a home, like a joyful mother of children. The Love of God has been poured upon you for you are very precious in His sight. Therefore God wants to honour and exalt you in life.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father we thank you for your everlasting love and for rebuilding our ruined lives. We praise you for blessing our children with wisdom, prudence and good understanding. Help us to be faithful and seek God diligently all the days of our life. 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 for you today is from the book of Psalm 146:8 “The Lord raises those who are bowed Down. The Lord loves the Righteous”.
My dear brothers and sisters, the Bible says, “This is the day which the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it.” We always desire to be happy and joyful in our life. But that does not happen always. Because there are some who say I desire to live but people don’t allow me to live in peace. I am not able to live. For I am despised and bowed down. I am lowly and forsaken. And there might be several reasons as to why you are thrown into that state of life. May be you are not well placed in life, not well educated, may be you lack complexion or beauty or anything of that sort. Don’t worry because God does not look at you that way. For man looks at the outward appearance, But the Lord looks at the heart. Hallelujah! The Lord raises those who are bowed down. The Lord raises the poor, out of the dust. And lifts the needy out of the ash heap, That He may seat, him with princes. This is the work of the Lord. David says, in his psalm, “ But I am poor and needy yet the Lord thinks about me. ” What a glorious God we have. So cheer up my dear brothers and sisters. The Lord is concerned about you, He will surely lift you up to glory. But you need to humble yourself to God. And those who humble themselves shall be exalted. The love of Jesus will lift you up. You might have fallen to the bottom pit due to some unavoidable reason but God will lift you. When you are thrown out, He is ready to hold you up.
The Bible records one such person who was despised by the elders of his family. His name was Jephthah. He was despised by the members of his family. They threw him out of doors. He was punished for the mistake committed by his father. His brothers said to him “You shall have no inheritance in our fathers house because you are the son of another woman.” So Jephthah fled from his brothers and dwelt in the land of Tob. Later the people of Ammon made war against Israel so the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah from the land of Tob. For he was a mighty man. Then they said to Jephthah “ Come and be our commander, that we may fight against the people of Ammon. ” Now the elders said we have come to you for help. That you may go with us and fight against the people of Ammon. And be our head, over all the inhabitants of Gilead. So Jephthah told the elders that if the Lord delivered them from the people of Ammon then he will be the head. His brothers agreed to his word. Though Jephthah was rejected by his brothers he found favour in the sight of God. The spirit of the Lord came upon him. Jephthah advanced toward the people of Ammon to fight against them and the Lord delivered them into his hands. God exalted Jephthah who was despised by his brothers. Thus they that humble themselves shall be exalted.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you Lord for you regard the poor and needy, those that are bowed down, and despised. You also lift them up and make them seated with the princes. May Your children learn to humble themselves before you that they might be exalted. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Mark 10:52 Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way, Your faith has made you well. ” And Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.” From this portion we read about the life of a blind man.
The blind man can be compared to a man who is blind spiritually. Such people are without any spiritual insight. They are blind to the knowledge of knowing the truth. They are worldly and cannot enter into the kingdom of God. This is one state of blindness. They have failed to know the way of peace, life and salvation by Christ. And when they receive sight from Christ, they have a clear vision of their sinful life and they are made light in the Lord and become Children of God. The eyes of their understanding are enlightened as they are able to see the sad and ruinous state, the pollution of their hearts and the sinfulness of their thoughts. Once they receive their sight they begin to understand the loveliness of Christ and the fullness of His grace and that eternal glory and happiness is secured by God.
God is willing to open your eyes because of His Friendly love for you. He will remove the dirt or blockade of your eyes. God will heal all the nerves and tissues that needs healing. There was one such man called Bartimaeus. He sat by the road begging. When he heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by that way, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus Son of David, have mercy on me.”So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. So the disciples comforted him saying “ Be of good cheer. Rise, He is calling you. “ The blind man threw off his garment and came to Jesus. Jesus said to him, What do you want Me to do for you? The blind man said to Him, “Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.” Then Jesus said to him, Go your way “ Your faith has made you well. ” And Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road. A great change came into the life of Bartimaeus. Jesus changed his situation completely.
My dear Brothers and Sisters God will change your situation for you too, if you cry out to Him in truth and spirit. Bible says, This poor man cried out, and the Lord heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles. When you come to Jesus He will deliver you from all your problems. Today God is willing to heal you of all your disease, your sorrows, your pains, your fear, and your worries due to debts, joblessness, court cases and all other problems that you go through in your day to day life. Provided you cry out to Him. He is a God of compassion. A God who opened the eyes of the blind can open the doors of your life too. The Bible says, I cried out to the Lord, because of my affliction, And He answered me. He is a God who answers you, when you call upon Him. God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. We praise You Lord for opening our eyes , that we may see the truth. Thank You for your friendly love and compassion. Help us to acknowledge your goodness in our life and be healed of our disease, our pain and sorrows. Teach us to cry out to God in difficult times. Answer our prayers Oh Lord. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
