Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The Bible says in Psalm 145:14, “The Lord upholds all who fall, and raises up all who are bowed down.” What a powerful and comforting promise this is! The Lord is not only aware of your struggles but also deeply involved in your restoration. He upholds those who fall and lifts up those who are bowed down—those who have been insulted, humiliated, or broken in spirit.
Have you been insulted or looked down upon by others? Have people said you will never succeed, that you are not capable, or that you are good for nothing? Have they tried to suppress your potential and spoken negatively about your future? Take heart—the Lord says He will raise you up. People may push you down, but your God will lift you up high. That is the difference. When others try to make you sit down in silence, you must remember: you have a God who will lift you up!
This promise of God also speaks to those who have fallen into difficult situations—those who are burdened with debt, struggling with sickness, trapped in sin, or caught in addictions like alcoholism, drugs, or other destructive habits. Even if you’ve fallen into pride or prostitution, God’s hand is not too short to save. Today, the Lord is reaching out to uphold you. He will make you holy, counsel you, and bless you so that you will not fall again.
Not only does the Lord uphold those who fall, but He also raises up those who are bowed down. He will lift you before the very eyes of those who once insulted and shamed you. They may have said, “He is bedridden, he won’t rise again,” but God will prove otherwise. He will cause you to arise and shine! The Bible says that those who insulted you will fall, but you will stand straight. Today is your turn—your moment of restoration. If you have fallen, don’t remain in that place thinking it is over. The Lord has come to where you are right now to lift you up with His loving and wounded hands.
We see a beautiful example in the Bible of a lame beggar sitting at the temple gate. When Peter and John saw him, they said, “In the name of Jesus Christ, rise up and walk.” And the man stood up and walked! In the same way, no matter the sickness, sin, or debt you are facing today, the Lord is able to heal, deliver, and raise you up.
Testimony:
Brother S. Kamaraj had a sudden health crisis. He experienced severe breathing difficulties and couldn’t even walk a few steps. After undergoing medical tests, doctors found a serious blockage in the blood vessels from his feet to his lungs. They reported that 75% of his lungs were not functioning and gave up hope.
In that hopeless situation, he came with great difficulty to a God’s Love Ministries meeting in Coimbatore. There, he was prayed for with great compassion and faith—and the Lord miraculously healed him! Today, Brother Kamaraj is completely healthy. He shares this testimony to encourage you, as the same God who healed him is still working miracles.
Prayer:
Holy Father, we thank You. In the name of Jesus, I bless every person reading this. Lord, those who are reading this and have fallen into sickness, debt, sin, or curse—meet them where they are. Uphold them, make them holy, and set them free from their struggles. As You have promised, raise up all who are bowed down. Those who are discouraged, depressed, insulted, and forsaken—touch them, heal them, and lift them up. Let them arise and shine. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
