My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord, for today, is from the book of Matthew 5:12, “ Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven.”
Today the Lord is telling you to rejoice and be glad. Because great will be your reward in heaven. To see which reward will be great in heaven, let us read the previous verse. “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My Sake.” Today many of you, are being punished and have been falsely accused of something because of you choosing to be an ambassador for Christ in this world. Your name would have got spoiled even though you did not have any kind of relation to that particular incident. However, someone has related you to that issue and due to it, your heart is burdened. What must we do in such a situation? We must not cry or lament over it or we must not fight against them. Instead, what must you do? You must rejoice and be glad.
Because when such situations happen your reward in heaven will be great. The reward in heaven is more important than the reward we receive on this earth. So, you need to forgive them freely and you must not cut off that love and fellowship. The Lord has told you to love your enemies. The Lord is telling you to love those who falsely accuse you, Love those who did wrong to you. When you do so, your spiritual grade will keep increasing. The Lord will have high respect for you. It is normal for us to respect the Lord. But it is a great achievement for you to be respected by God.
For instance, we can read in Bible, when Stephen prayed to the Lord, for the sake of the people, who wanted to stone him to death. He said, “Let not the curse fall upon them.” He forgave them and gave up his life. Thereby what happened? Our Lord Jesus Christ who was seated at the right hand of God, The Father, stood up and respected Stephen. What does this mean? We read in the Bible that the Lord had more respect, and happiness for Stephen.
While Jesus was hanging on the cross, many accused him falsely. Many who passed by spoke ill about Jesus. It is mentioned, that the passer-by spoke ill about Jesus, mocked Him, and criticized Him. But Jesus heard everything silently and remained calm and quiet. So, when you experience such a situation, you need to remain silent and you should not fight back.
The Bible says, present your case and He will do justice “The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” God will surely do justice when you are blamed and cornered by the people around you, Be Still and be glad in the Lord. God will bless you with happiness as said in Bible “Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble”. God will calm down the storm in your life and then you shall receive, a great reward in heaven. The Lord will honour you and cause you to live happily.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord look upon those children who have been falsely accused of their righteousness, and truth. Let them not think about the bad incident and lament over it. Instead let them praise the name of the Lord, rejoice and be glad. Help them to forgive others, and have a good fellowship with them. I bless them to receive a great reward in heaven. But let them also receive the reward for it in this world, as long as they live. Lord exalt the names of all my children who are suffering in such situations, before those who wanted to shatter and spoil their names. You have said in the Bible, that you will prepare a table for my children before their enemies. And will anoint their head with oil. Lord, anoint them with oil of gladness and cause their vessels to overflow. Let my children receive the reward from heaven.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord for today is from the book of Genesis 28: 15, “I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
My Dear Children of God, the Lord is giving us many promises during our prayer time, at the time of meditation, and also when we go to the church. The fulfilment of those promises is very important in our life. The Lord has said, “I will fulfil with my hands, what I have told you, by My mouth.” If the Lord tells you something, He will surely do it. You need not doubt about it. The Lord sometimes delays in fulfilling certain promises as He wants to prepare, you to inherit His blessings.
In the Bible, we can read about the young man Jacob, who went to his uncle’s place for his survival. On his way, the Lord spoke to him saying, “Jacob I will be with you wherever you go, I will protect you. I will cause all the works of your hand to prosper.” When you return to your land Canaan you will come back as a wealthy man and be well settled. And having spoken these words to you, I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.
The Lord did it, as He had promised Jacob. When he went, to his uncle’s place. His salary was changed ten times. He was put to task by his own uncle. He cheated him out of his pay many times. But God blessed the work of Jacob’s hands, so Jacob became a rich man. The Lord promises Jacob and He fulfilled as he has promised.
My dear children of God, when the Lord fulfilled his promise to Jacob, will He not fulfil His promise to you? Surely, He will fulfil it. So, the Lord is telling you that this is the day for the fulfilment of the promise of the Lord. The Lord is going to come into your life and is going to do something special to fulfil the promises which He has given to you.
Your situation may seem as if the Lord has forsaken you. But the Lord will not forsake you in any situation, He will be with you as He was with Joshua. In Bible, on that day God promised Joshua, “I will neither leave you nor forsake you.” Many wars took place during his period and many came against him. However, to fulfill the promise, God did not forsake Joshua, nor did He leave him alone to struggle. To keep His promise saying “I will never forsake you.” The Lord made the sun and the moon stand still for the entire noon. The reason is that the Lord told Joshua, that He will be with him wherever he goes, and give him victory. He remained with Joshua and brought victory to him. Just as He had promised him. The Lord stayed with him to fight his enemies and gave him victory. Today the Lord will give you also a great victory. So, the Lord will not leave you until He has fulfilled what He has promised you. Trust on Him and many miracles are waiting to happen for you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. You said, “I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” You have given an assurance to my children. I pray wholeheartedly and bless them, saying that you will fulfil all the promises that you have promised for them. We hope for a miracle to happen today in their life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My Dear beloved in Christ I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord, for today is from the book of Proverbs 10:27, “The Fear of the Lord prolongs days.”
Everyone desires to live long, for several years. Today the Lord is teaching you a wonderful secret for your lifetime to increase. The fear of the Lord prolongs days. Fearing God means having respect for Him and obeying Him.
The fear of God may add length to life by causing one to avoid violent activities, to refrain from unhealthy eating, abstain from unlawful activities, and to say no to harmful drugs and other addictive things. Having the fear of God also promotes a greater level of self-control and personal responsibility, resulting in a lifestyle of working hard to provide for daily needs and regular sleep to maintain long-term health. Relationally, a person who fears God will regularly spend time in prayer, develop Godly relationships, walk according to the will of God and seek to live in harmony with family members and friends, resulting in a lower stress level and the lifestyle benefits that come with that. The Bible says that as Moses feared God and lived according to His will, he did not lose his sight nor did he lose his strength even at the age of 120.
You must not think that you can increase your lifetime by taking a tonic, or the exercise you do. Yes, it is very important to take care of the health that God has given you but at the same time, you need to hear His voice, obey Him, and sanctify yourself every day which will please God to bless you as said in Bible “Purify yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do great wonders among you.”
My dear children of God, what will happen to us if we don’t fear God? He has the right to judge us. Do not defy Him, but acknowledge Him as your Creator, Savior, and Lord. Give over your life to Him, live it out of reverence to Him, and be saved from condemnation.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, you have said, that the fear of the Lord prolongs life, you have taught us a way how to extend our life on the face of this earth. It is to fear God. Let the children reading this message submit themselves to live a life of fearing the Lord. Give the grace to all my children to obey the commandments and the voice of the Lord and do the will of God. May my children be successful and live a long fullest life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
Dearly Beloved, I greet and bless you in the name of our Creator, Maker, and ever unforgettable Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Ruth 1:6.19, “Then she arose with her daughter in law that she might return from the country of Moab, for she had heard in the country of Moab, that the Lord had visited His people, by giving them bread.”Now the two of them went until they came to Bethlehem. And it happened, when they had to come to Bethlehem that all the city was excited because of them, and the women said, Is this Naomi. ”
We are in the time of great expectation. Now is the time to rise up and start a new life. For we need to make a bright future. Behold the past has gone the future is yet to begin. The hope of new beginning is about to start. These were the thoughts running in the mind of Naomi and Ruth. So they left Moab and went to Bethlehem because they heard the good news that God is providing food for the people in Bethlehem. While they lived in Moab they came across many unpleasant happenings in their lives. They were drenched in sorrow, pain, agony and remorse. Their life became miserable. It is in Moab that Naomi lost her husband. Ruth also lost her husband at a very young age. Both were widows. Having lost their beloved ones their heart did not permit them to continue in Moab any longer. They expected a change in their life. They were in a state of pain and despair. They expected that a better day would dawn in their life after having endured much struggle.
The good news of God’s provision of bread, in Bethlehem brought hope in them. Bethlehem which is called the house of bread was the native place of Naomi. But she went to Moab for better survival along with her husband and her two sons. There she got her sons married to girls of Moab. Suddenly her husband Elimelech died. And later her sons Mahlon, and Chilion also died. Naomi and Ruth were left bereaved. Naomi experienced great loss one after another. She was broken in spirit and physically, so she was looking forward for a new beginning. Both Naomi and Ruth did not sit and murmur against God, but they thought about taking the next step to move forward in life. This is the time that they heard that Bethlehem was prosperous and God was providing food for the people there. Immediately taking her young widowed daughter in law she walked to Bethlehem. The Bible says, and so they got up and left. They were making an effort to make a better life, after all the problems they had faced in Moab. To those of you reading this message, I think you too might be facing the same situation as Naomi and Ruth. We heard the cry of death carrying away many beloved brothers and sisters during Covid 19, leaving behind young widows, little children and even helpless elderly people. They were all filled with agony at the loss of their sons, daughters, husbands, wives and other relatives. You too might be experiencing great pain and distress. Though Naomi and Ruth lost everything in their life yet they never lost hope and faith in the true and living God.
Some of you might have lost your job, your wealth, your good health, peace of mind, joy and happiness. Well some of you might have lost your business too, or you might have become bankrupt, You may be in a fix, not knowing what to do. Like these two widows you too might be saying will we ever see, good days in our life. Will a bright future dawn in our life? Then you need to have hope and faith like these two women. In spite of all the troubles, they never lost their hope in God. They had great faith in God that He will surely open a new way for them in the land of Bethlehem. So they moved to Bethlehem from Moab. You may be caught up in sin and sinful deeds. God is waiting for you, to return to Him as these women who returned to Bethlehem. He will forgive you of all your sins, if you will get up from your current helpless situation and come up to Him, He will offer you many good things. Will you get up and come to him; Then He will gladly welcome you and make you ruler over many things.
For those of you who have faced only failures in life, you will hereafter experience victory in all that you do. Those of you who are suffering from continuous sickness, you will enjoy good health in future. God will bring healing into your bodies. God will grant you peace and calmness, instead of storm in your life. If Naomi and Ruth did not return to Bethlehem, then Ruth would not have been blessed by Boaz, who offered her another life. And Naomi would not have been able to fondle a blessed baby boy in her arms. God rewarded their faith. Hope in God is the foundation of strong faith in Him. You too will be blessed and God will help you see better days in life if you will return to God and live a life pleasing unto Him. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you for showing us the way to new life, through the character of Naomi. In spite of all the problems she faced, she had great faith in God. Give us this faith Lord. Help us to walk by faith and not by sight. Teach us to get up from our ordinary and low state of life, to that of rich, upliftment in life. May we too receive such good blessings as Ruth and Naomi received.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The Bible says, “I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture” (John 10:9).
Dear child of God who is eagerly anticipating a bright future, today God is going to bless you! When you come in through our Lord, you will find a suitable life partner and a satisfying job. You will never land an undesirable job or be married to an unsuitable person when you enter through Him. He will reroute you saying, “Come my daughter, come my son for I have a better brighter future planned for you!”
Perhaps you were not successful in an interview. Do not be worried! The fact is, that was not an appropriate place for you. You have ordinary plans regarding your life and future, but our God has extraordinary plans for you (Jeremiah 29:11). Children of God never be disappointed due to unsuccessful interviews. Persevere with the faith that what God has planned for you, He will grant it to you! The Bible says: “Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared” (Exodus 23:20). God will send His angel to take you to the right place at the right time. The God who declared that He is the door is confirming that He has kept an open door before you! That open door could be an open door for your job, or an open door for a ministry, or an open door for marriage, or an open door for the gift of the child!
The gate of heaven will always be open for you even if the other doors are closed. Jacob discovered that gate. The angels of God were ascending and descending on the ladder that was kept at the gate of heaven (Genesis 28:12,17). Beloved children of God, no one can stop your prayers to God. When you pray, angels descend and take your requests to heaven. The Bible says: “See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it” (Revelations 3:8).
In the Bible, we see, that even after many years of marriage, Rachel was unable to become a mother whereas her sister Leah had many children. Even Rachel’s handmaids had several children. Unable to bear this humiliation Rachel was always fighting with her husband. She told him “Give me children, or else I die!”. Finally, Jacob said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb? God is the door that you should approach” (Genesis 30:2,22-24). So, Rachel prayed to God for a child. Then God remembered Rachel and gave her Joseph.
God declared – I am the door, if anyone goes through me, he will be saved, he will be protected, he will go in and out and find pasture. So, my dear children of God, always seek Him first and He will lead you on a good path and open the door of all goodness in your life.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear God as my children submits them into your hand, open all the doors that have been closed in their life so far. Let there be no more loss or destruction in their path. Remove all the satan’s cunning confusing schemes and break the bondages from their life. May the Lord bless them with a prosperous future. Let my children live well in everything and also be blessed with a long happy life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
