Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all through this Auspicious word on this August 5th.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Let us read Matthew 6:33: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
Many of you are expecting numerous blessings. You have many hopes and expectations in your heart. You desire that many good things should happen in your family, in the lives of your children, and in your workplace. There is nothing wrong with having such expectations. The Lord is ready to do all these things for you.
To receive these blessings, you are working hard. You have set goals for your life, and you are striving to achieve them. You are investing your time, money, talents, and strength to reach those goals. That is a good thing. However, for all your efforts to prosper, hard work alone is not enough. The money, time, talents, and strength you invest are not sufficient by themselves.
Alongside all these efforts, there is something even more important, and that is what the Lord is teaching us today. “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.” In other words, give priority to the things that help you grow spiritually. Seek the Kingdom of God and live a righteous life. When you make spiritual growth your first priority, your worldly growth is in the Lord’s hands. He will take care of everything else. More than you expected, He will bless you.
He will add every other blessing to your life.
I often use this simple illustration. When you buy idlis, the chutneys are usually served free. You pay only for the idlis, but along with them you receive coconut chutney, tomato chutney, mint chutney, onion chutney, idli podi, and sambar. They are all added as extras. Likewise, when you seek the Kingdom of God first, all the other blessings are added to your life by the Lord. Just as idlis are steamed and are considered healthy food, doctors often recommend them for those who are recovering from illness. I use this illustration simply to help you remember this truth. When you seek God’s Kingdom, His righteousness, and the things that strengthen your spiritual life, every other blessing will be added to you.
Testimony
“My mother suffered from severe sleeplessness. Because she could not sleep at night, she became weak and exhausted during the day. Although we consulted many doctors and hospitals, she was not healed. During that time, I visited the God’s Love Ministries Prayer Tower in Nagercoil and requested the prayer warrior to pray for my mother to sleep peacefully at night. I also shared that although I had been married for two years, I had not been blessed with a child. The prayer warrior prayed earnestly. The Lord heard that prayer, and from that day onward my mother began to sleep peacefully through the night. I also held on to the Bible verse the prayer warrior shared and continued praying with faith. By the grace of God, I conceived and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.” The Lord will do the same for you.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. In the name of Jesus, I bless every child. Help Your children to stop chasing only the things of this world. Instead, may they seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness. Give them a heart to pursue spiritual growth and to walk in Your ways. Then, according to Your promise, add every blessing they need—education, employment, promotion, financial prosperity, wealth, the blessing of children, an own house, and every good gift they are expecting. Establish Your children on this earth and make them a testimony for Your glory.
May this Auspicious word be fulfilled in their lives from this very moment. Amen.
Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all through this Auspicious word on this August 4th. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Let us read Isaiah 49:16: “See, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands.”
What does this mean? Something that is merely drawn can easily be erased, but what is engraved can never be erased. The Lord says, “I have engraved you on the palms of My hands.” This means He has kept you safe and secure in His mighty hands. Just think about it. The Almighty God—the One who has authority over heaven and earth, the One to whom belong all the silver and gold, the Creator and Ruler of the entire universe—has engraved you on the palms of His hands.
What greater assurance do we need than this? If you are in the hands of the Lord, then remember His Word: “Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.” Continue to fulfil your responsibilities faithfully. If it is time to study, study diligently. If it is time to work, do your work faithfully. If it is time to serve the Lord, do His ministry wholeheartedly. As you remain faithful, the Lord Himself will exalt you at the appointed time. Until then, remain humble under His mighty hand, remembering that you are engraved on His palms.
Do not fall into the trap of thinking, “I must become great by my own strength. I must become rich through my own efforts.” Such thinking often leads people into unnecessary struggles and disappointment. If you have already fallen into such a pit, call upon Jesus and ask Him for help. He will stretch out His hand, lift you up, and establish you once again. In the days ahead, surrender yourself completely to His leading. I often say this: if we try to carry and pull all our burdens by ourselves, life becomes exhausting. We move forward only with strain, stress, and weariness. But when we surrender everything to the Lord and pray, “Here I am, Lord. I am Your servant. Let it be according to Your Word,” He begins to push us forward by His grace. Engrave this truth in your heart. I often share this because I have experienced it personally. I never try to carry my burdens alone. Before any project begins, I place it in God’s hands and pray, “Lord, I surrender this to You. Father, take charge.” Then, from behind the scenes, the Lord begins to move everything forward. I have seen Him lead me beautifully. It becomes effortless because He is the One directing every step.
Every opposition that comes against us, He handles perfectly and leads us through it smoothly. Therefore, develop this habit from today onward. The Lord will do great things in your life. Since He has engraved you on the palms of His hands, He will accomplish every good thing He has planned for you at the right time. Every project that has remained unfinished, every blessing that has been delayed, and every door that seems closed—the Lord will fulfil them according to His perfect timing. Many people have been writing to us and asking whether we have completed the registration of the Coimbatore Prayer Tower property because I have not mentioned it recently in the MV. I would like to update you. Around 65–70% of the payment has already been completed, and only about 30% remains. We are prayerfully expecting to complete the registration by next month. Kindly continue to remember this matter in your prayers. As I always say, I never try to carry these burdens myself. I surrender them to the Lord, and He moves everything forward. This opportunity itself was unexpected. Our God’s Love Ministries Coimbatore Prayer Tower is presently functioning in a rented building, as many of you know. Initially, we were permitted to conduct large meetings there, but later we were no longer allowed to do so. I do not wish to complain about anyone. Instead, we began conducting meetings at Windsor Garden, but even there we desired not to inconvenience anyone. Then the Lord Himself opened this new opportunity. We had never planned to purchase land. That is why I say that it is the Lord Himself who is pushing us forward. He showed us this property unexpectedly. It was truly marvellous. These matters are progressing, and I know your prayers are powerful. May God bless you. Please continue to pray that by next month everything will be completed and the property registration will be successfully finished.
Testimony
“Praise be to God! On 29-05-2026, I became anxious after seeing a vision that my family had met with a road accident. I tried to ignore it, but the fear and the vision kept troubling me. That night, during my prayer time, I read Psalm 91 and prayed. The next day, in the Mangala Vaarthai program on 30-05-2026, Brother Stephen shared the verse and prayed. It felt as though that prayer was offered specifically for our family. We experienced the Lord’s protection, and all fear and visions of an accident completely left my mind.” The Lord will do the same for you.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. In the name of Jesus, I bless every child. Thank You for engraving each one of us on the palms of Your hands. We offer You millions of thanks and praise. Thank You for making every area of our lives beautiful according to Your perfect plan.
According to this Auspicious word, may signs, wonders, and miracles follow Your children throughout this year. May this word be fulfilled from this very moment. Amen.
Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all this August 3rd through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Let us read Proverbs 11:25: “He who waters will also be watered himself.”
Everyone desires that the blessings of heaven would flow into their lives like a mighty stream. We all wish that heavenly waters would come and make our gardens flourish. We desire God’s blessings to rest upon the works of our hands, our jobs, our businesses, our ministries, and our homes. It is a righteous desire, and every one of us longs for it.
Today, the Lord says, “He who waters will also be watered himself.” If you desire the heavenly waters, you must first become someone who waters others.
Listen carefully. In our hometown, there is a saying: “If you help raise another person’s child, your own child will grow well.” Likewise, if the Lord is to pour His heavenly treasures into your home, you must cultivate the habit of giving to others whenever you have the opportunity.
Who does the Lord entrust with His blessings? He blesses those who become channels of His blessings. If God can trust someone to share what He gives with those in need, He delights in pouring more into that person’s life. Whether it is for family members, the church, the community, or the prayer tower, when the Lord prompts such a person to help someone, they willingly obey. They become channels through which God’s blessings flow.
That is why the Bible says, “He who waters will also be watered himself.” I have witnessed this many times in our APO meetings. Nearly 6,000 people attend these meetings, and some believers willingly take the responsibility of providing food for everyone. I deeply appreciate such hearts because giving food and clothing to those in need is a great act of love.
Many poor and needy people attend these meetings. Some even come believing that they will at least receive a meal. Later, many have testified, “I first came for the food, but before my physical hunger was satisfied, the Lord fed me spiritually.”
Last month, a dear brother who loves our ministry very much—his name is Rivington called me. While he was working in Saudi Arabia, he used to collect small offerings from his colleagues every month to support our television ministry. He has now retired and is living in Tirunelveli.
He told me, “One of my sisters lives in the United States. Her son had been unemployed for a long time, but the Lord recently blessed him with a job. As a thanksgiving offering, she wants to sponsor food for everyone attending the APO meeting.”
We informed him of the amount required, and she immediately sent the offering. Through her generosity, we were able to provide food for everyone who attended the meeting.
Notice something important. Before her son received the job, she made a vow to feed God’s people if the Lord answered her prayer. In other words, she decided to water others. The Lord honoured that heart, opened the door for her son’s employment, and later enabled her to fulfil her thanksgiving offering. I have witnessed not just one or two such testimonies, but many.
Those who know our charitable ministry are aware that during June and July, we helped many poor, orphaned, and abandoned children by paying their school and college fees so they could continue their education. Our God’s Love Ministries is a ministry that waters others. We do not only preach the Gospel; we also help people with their practical needs. As we continue to water others, heaven continues to water God’s Love Ministries. I share this from personal experience.
The more we give, the more the Lord pours into our homes, our businesses, and our ministry. As we continue giving, God continues supplying. As we often say in our language, “The good you do today will stand for you in heaven.”
Therefore, give generously. Support your family. Help your church. Care for the poor in your congregation. Sponsor a child’s education whenever possible. If you know children who cannot continue their studies because of financial difficulties, encourage their parents to allow them to study, and help them if you are able.
Do such good works, and heaven will water your life. This is God’s principle. Perhaps today you are saying, “My hands are empty. I live in poverty. I do not know where my income goes.” If that is your situation, begin to give toward God’s work and toward those in need. The Lord will surely do great things for you.
Testimony
” I was suffering from severe varicose veins, and painful ulcers had spread over her hands, legs, and body. The ulcers emitted a foul smell, and people avoided coming near her. She contacted the God’s Love Ministries 24-hour Prayer Tower and requested prayer. A prayer warrior prayed earnestly for her. The Lord heard that prayer and healed her step by step. Today, all the ulcers have completely healed. She had been unable to work, but now she has returned to work and is doing well.” The Lord will do the same for you.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. You have declared, “He who waters will also be watered himself.”
Lord, there are childrens who say, “Even my own needs are not being met. I am buried in debt. Every day I struggle to answer my creditors.”
Father, I humbly pray that You would direct the rivers of heaven toward them. Water their lives abundantly, Lord.
Perhaps many of them have desired in their hearts to help others, support Your work, and bless those in need, but because they lacked resources, they were unable to do so. Lord, receive the desire of their hearts as though they had already given, and perform a miracle for them today.
Open new doors of income. Grant them permanent employment. Give overseas jobs to those longing to work abroad. Establish those already abroad with permanent employment. Bless those seeking government jobs with government positions. Grant promotions to those waiting for advancement.
Lord, entrust Your treasures to those who have hearts willing to share with others. Bless these children, prosper them, and make them great. May this Auspicious word be fulfilled from this very moment. Amen.
Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all through this Auspicious word on this August 2nd. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Let us read Psalm 128:1: “Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, who walks in His ways.”
Many people look at others and say, “He is fortunate.” That means, “He is blessed.” They say, “He has the blessing of a government job. He has become a successful businessman. He has become a great servant of God.” We often say, “He is blessed,” or “She is blessed.”
The Bible also says, “Blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfilment of those things which were told her from the Lord.” Those who believe that every word spoken by the Lord will surely come to pass are blessed.
Today’s verse says, “Blessed is every one who fears the LORD.” Do you know who is truly blessed? Those who fear the Lord, obey His commandments, and walk according to His plans. Such people are truly fortunate.
In the Bible, when Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount, He repeatedly described who is blessed. The essence of His teaching is that those who fear the Lord and walk in His ways are blessed.
Today, the Lord wants to put an end to walking according to the ways of the world. Sometimes people advise you, saying, “Go this way. Do this. It will be good for you.” Today we call such people mentors. A good mentor can guide you wisely, encourage you, and give sound counsel. There is nothing wrong with that when you choose the right person.
However, there are also people who give wrong advice and unknowingly lead others in the wrong direction. Some may even deliberately mislead you. While most people genuinely desire your good, even sincere human advice can sometimes be based only on human understanding. What appears right in their eyes may not be right in the sight of God, and it can eventually bring pain and trouble into your life.
So why take that risk? Walk in the ways of the Lord. If a mentor, brother, or sister encourages you to fear the Lord and walk in His ways, listen to them. Those who do so will surely be blessed.
Today, in what area of your life do you feel you are not blessed? Are you saying, “I am not fortunate enough to own a house. I am not fortunate enough to get married. I am not fortunate enough to have the blessing of a child”?
If so, today surrender yourself to live in the fear of the Lord and walk in His ways. The Lord will transform your character, your lifestyle, your circumstances, and your future.
Testimony
“Praise be to God! We participated in the ATO Healing Meeting and prayed with Brother Stephen for an own house, the blessing of a child, and a change in my husband’s job. Brother gave us the prophetic word, ‘Go in peace; your request has been heard,’ and prayed for us. After that prayer, the Lord continually worked miracles in our lives. After participating in the meeting, we were blessed with a child. By the grace of God, we built our own house. My husband also received the job change we had been praying for.”
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. As Psalm 20:4 says, “May He grant you according to your heart’s desire, and fulfil all your purpose.” May this word be fulfilled in their lives.
Today, may every child who decides to fear the Lord and walk in His ways be blessed upon this earth and accomplish great things. According to this Auspicious word, Lord, perform wonders in their lives.
May this word be fulfilled from this very moment. Amen.
Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all through this Auspicious Word on this first day of August. May God richly bless each one of you.
Let us first thank God for bringing us into this new month. During the past seven months, the Lord has protected us as the apple of His eye. For His unfailing love, faithfulness, and protection, let us give Him all the glory. As we enter this eighth month, the Lord Himself has held our hands and brought us safely into it. He will continue to lead us, protect us, and bless us throughout this month.
Let us read today’s Auspicious Word from Proverbs 28:20: “A faithful man will abound with blessings.” There is a difference between blessings and complete blessings. Complete blessings include spiritual blessings, earthly blessings, and physical blessings. When all these blessings come together, they become complete blessings. To whom does the Lord give these complete blessings? The Bible says that a faithful person will abound with blessings.
Therefore, on this first day of August, let us make a firm decision to live faithfully before God. Let there be truth and holiness in your thoughts. Let there be truth in your speech, truth in your actions, truth in your prayers, and truth in your worship. In everything we do, let us walk in truth and righteousness. When we live faithfully before the Lord, He will place His complete blessings upon our lives. A faithful person is a righteous person. The Bible also says that blessings rest upon the head of the righteous. In other words, blessings rest upon the head of the faithful.
Many of you have experienced this in the past. You work very hard, your income comes in, yet nothing remains. Money seems to disappear as though your wages were being put into a bag full of holes. As you step into this eighth month, many of you may be asking, “Will at least some money remain this month? Will unnecessary expenses stop? Will unexpected medical expenses come to an end? Will the burden of paying interest be removed? Will sudden financial losses finally cease?” The answer is yes. There is only one way. Commit yourself today to live before the Lord in truth and righteousness. Surely, the Lord will do great things in your life.
Now let us hear a wonderful testimony. Praise be to God! A sister shared this testimony: “I was married for ten years but had no children. Because of this, my family and I lived in deep sorrow. During that difficult season, I attended the APO fasting meeting and prayed along with Brother Stephen. I also received individual prayer from him. The Lord heard our prayers. After ten long years, I conceived, and by God’s grace I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.”
Think about the humiliation she endured during those ten years. How many insults and mocking words she must have heard! How much sorrow filled her heart, and how much mental agony she must have experienced. Yet one day, she attended our monthly APO meeting. Just as Hannah poured out all her burdens before the Lord, this sister surrendered all her pain and anxiety to Him at the APO meeting. During the individual prayer, she received the Word the Lord had prepared for her. By the grace of God, the womb that had remained closed for ten years was opened, she conceived, and in due time she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. What a wonderful God we serve!
Prayer:
Loving Father, we thank You. Just as You blessed this dear daughter after ten years by opening her womb and granting her the precious gift of a child through the APO meeting, we pray for every one of Your children reading this message today. Many are weeping before You. Some are crying because they have not received the blessing of children. Some are waiting for a godly life partner. Some are searching for a good job, while others long to own a home and become settled in life. On this first day of August, help every one of Your children to commit themselves to living in truth and righteousness. May they receive the complete blessings You have promised to the faithful. From this very moment, let this Word be fulfilled in their lives. In Jesus’ mighty name we pray. Amen.
