My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Psalms 34:6, 7, “This poor man cried out and the Lord heard him. And saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him and delivers them.”
The Bible speaks of a blind man, who cried out to Jesus who was passing on the Jericho road. There was a crowd of people moving along with Jesus. When the blind man cried out, the people rebuked him to keep quiet. But he cried out all the more. “Jesus Son of David have mercy on me.” Hearing his cry Jesus stopped for a moment and asked the people to bring the blind man closer to Him. And when the blind man stood before Jesus, He asked him, “What do you want me to do for you? ” The blind man said “Rabboni, that I may receive my sight. “Then Jesus said unto him, “Go your way, your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight. Today the same Jesus is calling out to you and asking you, My dear son and daughter, “’What do you want me to do for you? When you cry out to Him He performs miracle for you.
Once while I was preaching in the “Anbarin Pathaathil Oru Naal Prayer Meeting in Chennai, I prayed to God to open the womb of those who were childless and mentioned the word of God saying, “And whose belly You fill with Your hidden treasure. They are satisfied with children.” A couple in America were watching our program on live telecast from midnight to morning 5 am. Both Seline and her husband, Bro Jebasingh, were crying together for the gift of a child as they were childless for quite some time. God heard their cry and the very same month she conceived. She had sent us an email stating she had kept the word of God and prayed to the Lord to be merciful to her and fill her belly with the hidden treasure .
God heard her prayer and immediately caused her to become pregnant. This proves that God performs miracles to those who cry out to God.
Just as God heard the cry of Seline and delivered her miraculously from childlessness, similarly God will hear your cry and answer your prayers. If you approach God, He will rescue you. Be it during the midnight or in the midst of the deep sea. As soon as you call, Jesus will come to deliver you. So dear child of God, “Call Him and He will answer you.”
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Teach us to cry out to You when we are in trouble. Help us to maintain a blessed relationship with You so that our prayers will be answered. Let there be no hindrance to our prayers. Thank you Lord for teaching us to be totally depend upon you. We give glory and honour to you.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
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 Esther.5:2,3, ” So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter.” And the king said to her, “What do you wish, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given to you—up to half the kingdom!”
From the above passage we come to understand that Queen Esther went before the king boldly in order to save the Jews from the cruel verdict that was passed against them. The King in turn granted all that the queen had requested him, bringing joy and laughter to the nation. Esther is described as the Jewish queen of a Persian king Ahasuerus, who was the king of 127 countries from India to Ethiopia, Since his first wife Vasthi, refused to come before the king, when she was called to the banquet, the king sought a new wife. So Esther became his wife. Haman, the king’s evil second-in-command, was a descendant of Agag, king of the Amalekites, who were ancient enemies of God’s people. Haman crafted a trick to destroy all the Jews. Haman is the antagonist in the book of Esther, and an evil man who tried to annihilate the Jewish people, King honoured Haman elevating him and giving him a seat of honour higher than that of all the other nobles. All the royal officials at the king’s gate knelt down and paid honour to Haman, for the king had commanded this concerning him. But Mordecai the Jew would not kneel down or pay him honour. The royal officials at the king’s gate asked Mordecai, “Why do you disobey the king’s command?” Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew. When Haman saw that Mordecai would not kneel down or pay him honour, he was enraged. So Haman looked for a way to destroy all Mordecai’s people, the Jews, throughout the whole kingdom, Haman selected the twelfth month, the month of Adar.
Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, “about the Jews who were dispersed among the provinces of the kingdom and who keep themselves separate. He further said, their customs are different from those of all other people, and they do not obey the king’s laws; So If it pleases the king, let a decree be issued to destroy them, and I will give ten thousand talents of silver to the king’s Administrators for the royal treasury.”So the king took his signet ring from his finger and gave it to Haman the enemy of the Jews. “Keep the money,” the king said to Haman, “and do with the people as you please.”Then on the thirteenth day of the first month the royal secretaries were summoned. They wrote out in the script of each province and in the language of each people all Haman’s orders to the king’s satraps, the governors of the various provinces and the nobles of the various peoples. These were written in the name of King Ahasuerus, himself and sealed with his own ring. Dispatches were sent by couriers to all the king’s provinces with the order to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews—young and old, women and children—on a single day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, and to plunder their goods. The couriers went out, spurred on by the king’s command, to the people of every nationality so they would be ready for that day in the citadel of Susa. The king and Haman sat down to drink, but the city of Susa was bewildered.
Queen Esther on hearing this verdict all the tricks of Haman to kill the Jews she went into her room and fasted three days with her handmaids. Her Uncle Mordecai and other men gathered outside the palace gate and prayed together. When Mordecai learns of this, he tells Esther to reveal to the king that she is Jewish and ask that he cancel the order passed against the Jews. Esther and Mordecai realized that they had to save their people; Esther would have to go before the king and plead for them. This was a dangerous thing to do, because no one was to go before the king without being called. Esther asked that her people fast and pray for three days for her. The fasting and prayers of her people gave the queen the courage to do what she needed to do, at that point of time. Esther realized that this was the time when the queen had to act boldly so she prayerfully approached the king. On seeing her the king stretched out his sceptre towards her and she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter.” And the king said to her, “What do you wish, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given to you—up to half the kingdom!” When she told the king of the wickedness of Haman, and his cunning plot against Mordecai and the people of the Jews. The king had him destroyed. He refused to see Haman and ordered that he should be hung on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai. Therefore he was put to death. Queen Esther then instituted the holiday of Purim for the day after the Jews were permitted to defend themselves. It is an important distinction for the holiday. The feast of Purim, still celebrated by Jews today, commemorates the Jews’ deliverance from Haman’s plot . Haman, a court official and villain whose plan to destroy the Jews of Persia was thwarted by Esther. Purim celebrates the day of “rejoicing and feasting” that followed. There was great rejoicing in the capital city of Shushan, since the King permitted the Jews to defend themselves, from their enemies. God gave them great joy and laughter. Those of you reading this message I wish to say that You, too, can pray to Father in Heaven for the strength to do those things that are good and great. God loves you and will listen to your prayers, just as He did to Queen Esther’s. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father we thank you for giving great deliverance to the Jews through Queen Esther. Give us the boldness with which she went before the king, so that we too can emerge victoriously. Thank you lord for killing Haman who planned against Your people. Destroy all our enemies who have planned to harm us and our children. We are living in a wicked world. Please protect us from the virus and all other dreadful happenings around us. Grant us the strength to overcome troubles and trials that lashes upon us every moment of our life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
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 Psalm 69:29,30 “But I am poor and sorrowful; Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high. I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving.”
From the above context we see the Psalmist making petition to God to draw near to Him. He confesses his state of life to God. He says, “Lord I am poor and sorrowful; therefore Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high. Then I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving.”When God does what we ask of Him then we immediately need to thank God, for His Mercy and abundant grace which He has bestowed upon us. We read of Daniel, whom God set him on high. Daniel lived in captivity in Babylon along with his friends Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Though they faced pressures to conform to Babylonian society and give up the ways of their people, they stood strong in their faith, and God blessed Daniel with wisdom and the ability to interpret dreams. Daniel was successful in every administration he served in. I’m not sure if you have ever given any thought to this, but Daniel– served different types of kings – from Nebuchadnezzar to Belshazzar, to Darius – all the way to Cyrus. With every one of these leaders, Daniel always seemed to move to the top of the organization.
May be you are thinking about our country which is facing recession. We are facing all kinds of shortages. Some people have all kinds of excuses for why, they are not doing well in life. But when we see the life of Daniel , the Israelites were all sold out to the Babylonians according to the will of God! There are some other attributes they possessed that helped them to always end up on top. Firstly Daniel was not the most educated person. He was educated, but he wasn’t the most educated. Daniel was fortunate, but he wasn’t the most fortunate. He had friends in high places, but so did other people. However, Daniel was singled out by every administration as one who operated in excellence.
We read in the Bible that the king interviewed them; and among them all, none was found like Daniel, Out of all that the king reviewed there was none like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm. Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding interpreting of dreams, and dissolving of doubts, were found in Daniel, who was later known as Belteshazzar: The King said, “I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.” He has an excellent spirit, he has excellent wisdom, he can explain difficult things and he can solve difficult problems. Daniel demonstrated 5 distinct attributes that I believe we need, in order to be successful in our own lives. They were commitment, competent, courageous, compassion, and creativity. Even though Daniel came in as a slave, he still worked and did his best and step by step he kept being promoted. Though he never asked to be promoted.
Daniel was committed. He had the skills to contribute, which means he was competent. He was bold and courageous. He had the heart to serve. He was compassionate which indicates that he had the love to meet the need of the hour. Moreover he had sense of creativity. He had the ingenuity to change and to produce change. These are the traits that is expected of every believer to excel in his studies or his career. To those of you who are reading this message, I wish to say, that life was not so easy for Daniel and his friends in Babylon. They were taken as captives. They had to undergo several tests before they could be exalted. They endured patiently every torture they had been put into, with great faith in the God of the Hebrews. Therefore they emerged successful. God not only set Daniel at a higher post in the Babylonian Government but also upgraded his friends to a higher level. God exalted them. If you remain true and faithful to God then He will exalt you also, like Daniel. You will excel in all that you do. You will have recognition among the people of authority. God will honour you and magnify you. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father we pray that You will help us with wisdom, understanding, excellent spirit, and knowledge, as You had blessed Daniel. May we apply the five attributes of Daniel in our lives to be successful. Teach us to have adamant faith in God and also exhibit them before others. So that the Lord’s name may be glorified.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
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 Isaiah 30:19, “For the people shall dwell in Zion, at Jerusalem, You shall weep no more. He will be very gracious to you at the sound of your cry. When He hears it, He will answer you.”
From the above context we learn that the people of God will dwell in Zion, at Jerusalem. God will be gracious to you, when you cry up to Him; He will hear your cry and answer you immediately. Today the Lord looks at each one of you who are reading this message and is saying that you shall not be crying anymore. You have cried enough in your life, due to various reasons. But in future you shall not cry. You might have incurred a great loss in your life. You might have made an error that cannot be amended. You might have failed in your business and your own customer could have cheated you. May be You are suffering from severe disease. Some kind of shame has covered you. You are unable to share your problem with anyone. And so you cry out your sorrows. You are in tears while you are reading this message, God sees you crying and is saying, “You should not cry anymore. For a God who wipes your tears is there besides you.” In whatever matter you are going through and that which is causing much stress, distress, and pain in that particular matter, God is going to do a miracle for you and help you, come out of it and live peacefully. For those who come in search of this Living God will not lack any good thing. You may have everything in life but you may lack one thing. God is dealing with you in that particular matter, through this message.
In the beginning of this verse we read that, those who belong to Zion will dwell in Jerusalem. We the people of God belong to Zion. As we come from Zion the city of God we are heavenly people. We are heavenly dwellers, called to dwell in Jerusalem in the near future. Jerusalem is a beautiful and an important city in Israel, surrounded with mountains and cannot be easily attacked by the enemies. Just as the city of Jerusalem is surrounded with mountains, we the children of Zion are surrounded by the mercy and grace of God. Just as Jerusalem is well protected by the mountains, God will provide you with His heavenly protection. Satan has already planned to destroy the peace and joy of your life, and that of your family. He has already prepared a chart as to how and when he should implement his plans over you. How satan can bring about destruction upon you. How Satan can waste all your hard earned money by your squandering nature is his wicked scheme against you. Thus satan has planned several wicked schemes, against you and your family. Since you have joined the city of Zion, God of Israel will provide you with a covering of protection.
God will send his angels, as flame of fire to guard and protect you from the hands of your enemies. His angels are ministering spirits, sent forth to minister unto those who belong to the city of Zion. God wants to nullify all the plans of the Satan, and grant you His perfect protection. Hereafter He will not allow your foot to be hurt. Many unpleasant incidents could have happened in your life, during the past years. But in future, you shall see no more disaster. God will not allow any destruction on your boundaries. God Himself will be a glorious light for you. The Sun shall not be light during the day, neither will the Moon be light during the night. But God Himself shall be the glorious light on your way. He will be direct light for you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father God, we have suffered much in the hands of various people. We have cried because of the misery and pain caused by others. God help us to bear all the pain we have borne in our life. Bring peace into our lives. Teach us to be careful and wise while dealing with such people. Never forsake us Lord. Save us from cruel hands. And brighten our days. May we see joy and happiness in our life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
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 Deuteronomy 32:9 says, “For the Lord’s portion is His people; Jacob is the place of His inheritance.”
Many of you are reading this message with much burden, in your heart. The Lord spoke to me saying that My children are My treasure. Therefore I will be their treasure too. This message is basically to promote good relationship between your family members, Your husband, your children and your in laws. It’s too painful to hear many incidents regarding sisters who after being married are prone to suffer in their husband’s house. Those sisters are saying that their in laws are thinking very cheap about them. They don’t respect them for what they are. They are often treated as servants or slaves. Jesus says, it does not matter how others think about you, since you belong to God, you are precious in His sight.
And you are His greatest treasure. Through this message the Lord wants to bless you and keep you as the apple of His eyes as you are the portion of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says, “He found him in a desert land, and in the waste land a howling wilderness, He encircled him, He instructed him, He kept Him as the apple of His eyes. In this passage God assures to bless Jacob and prosper him. Likewise the Lord wants to bless you so that you remain cheerful and happy in your family. God is so mindful of you and the members of your family. It pleases God to bless Israel. Who is this Jacob the Lord is talking about in this message? Well he is the Lord’s favourite. He respected the anointing of the Lord that was upon him. Isaac the father of Jacob was blessed with two beautiful sons. The eldest was Esau and the youngest was Jacob. Having well grown, the eldest son turned out to be a wild hunter. And Jacob was a homely boy who was his mother’s favourite. Once Esau returned from hunting, He was very hungry so he asked Jacob for a cup of porridge. Jacob agreed to give him his porridge provided he sold his birth right to him. They were twin brothers. Esau was so hungry and tired that he happened to forget the worth of his anointing and gave it off for a cup of porridge. This is considered to be a grave mistake of Esau. So he lost the blessings of God.Thus we see that Jacob got the way or passage to inherit the blessings of God.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father God we thank You for granting four blessings as prophesy to us through this message. We have been blessed by this message on family relationship. Thank You Lord for changing the attitude of our husbands towards us ( the wives) that we may lead a quiet and happy family life. Thank You for opening the wombs of those, whose wombs were closed until today. Help them conceive and beget children and make their husbands happy. Make us to be joyful mothers. Give us the wisdom to deal wisely in all our family matters and be a help mate to our husbands and good mother to our children.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
