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 name of the Lord be glorified. Let us read from the book of Isaiah 41:15:
“See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them and reduce the hills to chaff.”
To thresh or separate the grains, you need a sharp threshing sledge with pointed teeth. A dull knife struggles to cut; it won’t cut smoothly and might slip, causing frustration. But when a knife is sharpened on the edge of a rough stone, it can cut even a large fish effortlessly, including its bones and thorns. It is a blessing to work with a sharp tool that accomplishes its purpose smoothly.
My dear children of God, in the same way, if you are feeling blunt—whether in your thoughts, actions, or sensitivity—God is saying today that He will make you a sharp, new threshing instrument, with many teeth, ready to complete your tasks. Be it a ministry, studies, or work, God is equipping you to perform effectively, with knowledge, sharp thoughts, and hands and feet that operate efficiently. He will do miracles in your life so that you can be sharp in all areas.
Children of God should always be sharp, and discerning, to avoid being deceived. Whenever you are faced with choices, commit them to prayer and examine if they align with God’s word before proceeding. People should see that you act with wisdom, only after seeking God’s guidance. Today, God is giving you a sharp mind, a sharp anointing, and the grace to think, speak, and act with clarity and purpose.
Testimony:
We will now hear a testimony from M.S.P. Stella:
“Praise the Lord! I have been attending the ‘Anbarin Padathil Ooru Naal’ meetings for the past three years. My marriage was delayed for nearly ten years. Despite my parents’ efforts, no suitable match came through. I sent a prayer request via email to Brother Stephen, who prayed and sent me a Bible verse in response. Soon after, a proposal arrived. I sent another email to Brother Stephen, who prayed and blessed me with an auspicious word. By the grace of God, I met a suitable partner. The family visited, approved, and accepted me. After ten years of waiting, God removed all barriers, and the wedding happened beautifully.”
This testimony shows the power of God’s word and prayer. When we hold onto God’s word and pray, miracles unfold. God sent His word, and it brought healing and deliverance.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, we thank You. You have promised, “I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them and reduce the hills to chaff.” As per this word, let miracles happen in the lives of Your children. I bless them from the depths of my heart. Let all barriers be broken, and let marriages take place. Let good and auspicious events happen in their families. May the glory of God be revealed openly in their lives. Lord, break every bondage in their bodies, remove barriers to marriage, grant the gift of the womb, and pave the way for securing jobs. Lord, go before them and make their paths straight.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray.
Amen.
