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’s blessings rest upon you all. The Word of God says in Psalms 94:18, “When I said, ‘My foot is slipping,’ your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.”
When I said, “My foot is slipping,” or when my bike, cycle, or car slipped, it was the grace of God that held me up. This means that when we face moments of slipping—whether physically or figuratively—God’s grace sustains and protects us. Without His grace, such situations could lead to harm, injury, or even worse outcomes.
Many may trust in helmets or safety measures, but ultimately, it is the grace of God that protects and preserves our lives. The Bible says in Lamentations 3:22, “It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed because His compassions fail not.” This shows that it is His mercy that saves us from destruction. Even if we are prepared with safety measures, without His grace, no preparation can guarantee life.
So today, if your foot, bike, or vehicle slips, let us give thanks to the Lord for His grace that holds and protects us. His grace is renewed every morning, as stated in Lamentations 3:23. That is why we send the Mangala Vaarthai daily at 6 a.m., so that you can begin your day with the assurance of His fresh grace. When God’s grace is upon you, miracles and blessings will follow.
A Testimony of God’s Grace
Here’s a wonderful testimony from Sister Shakshi from Chennai:
*”By the grace of God and the blessings of my elders, my wedding engagement was fixed. However, some of our relatives who were against us spread false information to the groom’s family. They even created a fake photo of me with someone else and circulated it, causing the marriage to be called off. Despite our attempts to resolve the situation, the groom’s family refused to proceed with the wedding.
In my despair, I fell into deep depression and even contemplated ending my life. I couldn’t bear the mental distress, and every night, I went to bed hoping not to see the next day. At this point of utter brokenness, I visited God’s Love Ministries Prayer Tower. The prayer warrior there spoke to me kindly, encouraging me with God’s promises. He said that just as Jesus performed a miracle at the wedding in Cana, He would conduct my wedding with the same groom who had rejected the proposal.
A week later, to my surprise, the groom’s family approached us with a change of heart. They apologized and peacefully fixed the wedding date. By the grace of God, my wedding took place in a grand manner despite many hurdles.” The same God who performed this miracle for Sister Shakshi will work in your life too. If your marriage has come to a halt due to misunderstandings, financial challenges, or other obstacles, trust in the Lord. He will break every barrier and fulfill His promises.
Prayer
Dear Lord, we thank You for Your unfailing love and grace. Lord, when our feet slip, it is Your grace that holds us and sustains us. As we meditate on Your Word, let Your grace surround and uphold Your children. May all barriers—be it financial struggles, misunderstandings, or evil schemes—be removed in the name of Jesus. Let every marriage that is hindered be conducted in a grand manner. Cancel every weapon formed against Your children and grant them divine protection, whether on the road or in life’s journey. Surround them with Your angelic army, meet their needs, and bless them abundantly. We declare breakthroughs, miracles, and blessings upon their lives.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.
