My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May the Lord bless you abundantly. Take a moment to read from the book of Isaiah 56:7, which says, “Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.”
All those who come to the house of prayer, God will turn their sorrow into joy. Those who go to the prayer towers or to the church, God says He will make them glad and send them away with joy. Remember Hannah, who went to the house of prayer burdened and distressed. God made her glad by opening her womb and blessing her with a child. This is just one example of what God does for those who seek Him in His house of prayer.
Today, what problem are you carrying? Go to the church near your home and tell the Lord, “I have come with a problem; please help me.” No matter your religion or faith, no one will question you. God will not ask you about these things either. Instead, He will ask, “Daughter, what is your problem? Son, what burden have you come with? Tell me, and I will help you.” That is the nature of God’s house of prayer.
Don’t think that churches are only for Christians. They are houses of Jesus, houses of the Lord. They are houses of prayer for all people. So, go to the church nearby; there, Jesus will be waiting to receive you, the congregation will be ready to welcome you, and even the church elders will gladly receive you. No one will question why you have come to the church.
The house that gladdens your heart is truly the house of prayer. Try going there, pour out your heart, and see how many miracles unfold in your life. You may find yourself writing testimonies about how God changed your struggles. Just as He solved all of Hannah’s problems in the temple, He also healed a woman who had been crippled for eighteen years with a bent back. She received healing in the temple of God. If you seek the God who performs miracles, you will receive miracles.
Our prayer towers are located in Nagercoil, Chennai, Mumbai, and Coimbatore. Thousands of people come there and receive blessings. Let me share a testimony from our prayer tower to encourage you. Brother Pradeep Israel shared his experience. He had a job interview in Israel and was selected. They promised to send him an appointment letter, so he returned home. But after waiting for a month, he received no response. Each time he tried to follow up, they told him it was on the way, but nothing arrived.
In this stressful situation, Pradeep had rented a home in Chennai because he didn’t want to return without a job, as his wife had encouraged him to do so. He had financial difficulties, debts, and was paying interest on loans. In his distress, he went to the prayer tower and shared his burden with a prayer warrior, who prayed for him. By the grace of God, soon after, he received an appointment letter from a well-reputed company in Israel. Now, he is working there in a good position.
The same God who did a miracle for him is also your God. He will surely do a miracle for you as well.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, we thank You. You are the God who brings us to Your temple and gladdens our hearts. Lord, for every child who is filled with sorrow, burden, or struggle, and is crying over their children, family problems, or financial situation, we ask that You change their sorrow into gladness of heart. Lord, today itself, please perform a miracle to change their situation. For those who almost secured a job but have not yet received it, and for those who came to the prayer tower with this concern, we pray that You break all barriers in their path. Just as You helped Brother Pradeep, help those who feel like they have the blessing in their hand but cannot take it to their mouth. Lord, let Your miracle-working power touch them and give them breakthrough.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray.
Amen.
