September 1, 2024
My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. On this day, the 1st of September, I consider it a great privilege to meet you through this Auspicious Message. This gives me great joy. This is the Mangala Vaarthai for this day. Deuteronomy 33:27 says, “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.”
My dear brothers and sisters, it is not that the eternal God also, but the eternal God alone is your refuge. The term “eternal” means our God lives forever and ever. This means a God who surpasses all ages and is alive forever. Such a God is your refuge. He is a God who lives with you in all circumstances. If there were another option, people would not put their trust in God, but that trust in God would be divided. Wherever you pursue a particular goal, your mindset should be focused on that same route. It should not deviate to another way. Only then will you be able to see and obtain the crown of victory. So, never shift your trust from God to any other thing. God is everything for you. He is God for eternal ages to come. He is God at present and in the future. He is your God.
My dear children of God, if you depend on a man and sometimes take refuge in them, they may keep you until your work is done. But if you think that these people will help you till the very end and protect you, they may desert you when they no longer need you. But the Lord is not like that. He is beyond all that. He lives beyond ages, beyond situations, and He loves you without expecting anything in return. The next verse says, “Underneath are the everlasting arms.” “Eternal” and “Everlasting” are similar words meaning immortal—one who lives through all ages of time and the one who lives forever and ever. So, the Lord says, His everlasting arms will be your source and comfort.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, we thank You. Lord, on the first day of this month, You said that the eternal God is our refuge, and underneath are His everlasting arms. Lord, I place this verse upon the heads of all the children, and as a man of God, I bless them. From today onwards, let there be a great resurrection in their lives, and throughout this new month, let them have a good experience of walking with You, holding Your hand. We commit all of them into Your hands. Those who have entrusted themselves into the hands of others and have held the hands of others, let them today start walking by holding the hands of God. We are taking refuge in You, we are taking refuge in You as a family. You guide us, You do great things for us. Please provide everything that we need throughout this month. In Jesus’ name, we pray.
Amen.
