A Good Inheritance in Pleasant Places

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 and happy to meet you all this 19th December through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.

Let us read Psalm 16:6: “The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good inheritance.”

You have received an inheritance in good places. In a good place you have received a job. In a good family your life has been arranged. In a good place your house has been settled. In a good place the matters of your ministry have been arranged. These are pleasant places. Only the good God can give such pleasant places.

He created everything and saw that it was good. The Lord who perfected creation—will He give you something that is not good in your life? Never. If good things have not come into your life, it is often because you did not wait for the right time for the God of goodness to give them. Instead, you took something on your own, and that turned into a vessel of agony for you.

This is a deep truth. If you wait patiently until the Lord gives, you will surely receive what is good. The Lord gives perfect and good gifts from heaven. Therefore, your life should be settled in a good place, your job in a good place, your home in a good place, and your ministry in a good place.

If this is your desire, humble yourself under the mighty hand of God. Do not be in a hurry. When you choose hurriedly—“I saw this person,” “I chose this job,” “I made this decision”—and if it is not God’s will, it can become a vessel of suffering. Because of this, many are unable to live freely, work freely, or progress fully.

But the Lord says, when you receive a good inheritance in pleasant places, you will live freely. He will give you peace, freedom, and fulfilment. He will bless you with children, stability, and every good thing.
Therefore, as the God who gives perfect gifts, He desires us also to walk in righteousness. The festive season is approaching. Let Lord Jesus be born in your heart. When Jesus comes into your heart, there will be goodness in your speech, truth in your eyes, and righteousness in your actions. Then everything that happens to you will be good.

From today, the Lord is removing the vessel of agony from your hands. He is taking away the cup of suffering and giving you an inheritance of good blessings.

Testimony:

I conceived after one and a half years of marriage. In the seventh month, during a scan, the doctors said that the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby’s neck. My mother attended the Shaemam Fasting Meeting in Nagercoil, and my aunt attended the Anbarin Paathathil meeting in Chennai. They prayed with Brother Stephen. Brother Stephen’s prayer was recorded and sent to me over the phone. I listened to that prayer repeatedly in faith. By the grace of God and through those prayers, the Lord helped me deliver a beautiful baby girl through normal delivery.

The Lord will do the same miracle for you too.

Prayer:

Loving Lord, we thank You. We desire a good inheritance in pleasant places. For this, we submit ourselves to walk in righteousness. Whatever lack or wrongdoing that may be found within us, forgive us, Lord. From today, come and sit on the throne of our hearts. Lead us in pleasant paths and righteous ways. Grant us an inheritance in good places. Bring every blessing that my children need from pleasant places. Let them live there happily and freely.

Even today, look upon the children who are celebrating their birthday and wedding day. May this Auspicious word be fulfilled in their lives throughout this year.
Amen.

Peaceful Sleep

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 this 18th of December through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.

Today, what is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us? Children of God are eagerly waiting.
Psalm 4:8 says, “I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.”

For a person to sleep well, he must sleep in peace. To experience peaceful sleep, one important thing is required: the Lord must make him dwell safely. Only the Lord can give a secure life and a joyful life. When the Lord grants safety, sleep becomes sweet; otherwise, sleep will not come.

Do you know for whom sleep does not come? Sleep does not come especially to those who are facing trouble after trouble. They keep worrying: “What will I do tomorrow? I must return money to this person and that person. I promised to repay tomorrow—what answer will I give now?” Others worry about court cases, medical reports, or exam results. Such people lie down at night with their eyes closed, but their minds keep running continuously. Fear fills their hearts—“What will happen tomorrow? What if something goes wrong? Will I die?” Because of this fear, sleep leaves them.

On the contrary, when a medical report comes saying, “There is nothing to worry about—no heart problem, no lung problem, no cancer, no TB,” only then does a person sleep peacefully.

Today, the Lord wants to give you peaceful sleep.

When someone shares good news, we say, “I will put sugar in your mouth,” because sweet news brings joy. Today, instead of putting sugar in the mouth of Jesus, offer Him a hundred praises, because that is what He truly loves. From now on, good news will come to you. Sad news will come to an end. Henceforth, the Lord will help you sleep peacefully.

In some homes, people do not get sleep because a spirit of fear troubles them. But today, no plague will come near you, no harm will come near your dwelling. The Lord iss is placing a fence around your home. Angels are standing guard. He is sprinkling the blood of Jesus over your house. Without fear, you will lie down and sleep in peace.

For some others, sleep does not come because of happiness. If there is a wedding the next morning, they are filled with joy: “Tomorrow my life partner is coming. How will everything be? My relatives, brother-in-law, uncle, and aunt will all come.” Because of such excitement, sleep may not come—but this kind of sleeplessness does not harm the body. It is like resting joyfully.

However, sleeplessness caused by depression and fear brings great harm to the body.

Today, the Lord will settle your life and make you dwell safely in your family. Because of that, He will help you lie down and sleep peacefully. I bless you.

Testimony

“I went on a tour. While traveling in a van, the silencer hit my leg and caused unbearable pain. I went to the hospital, where the doctor gave me an injection, dressed the wound, and sent me home. Even after that, the pain continued. When I removed the dressing, I saw that the wound had become very large.

In this situation, I watched Brother Stephen’s sermon on YouTube and joined him in prayer. During the prayer, he spoke the Mangala Vaarthai and comforted us with God’s Word. After that prayer, to the amazement of the doctors, the wound in my leg was healed completely. The Lord gave me full healing.”

The Lord will do the same for you too.

Prayer

Loving Lord, we thank You. Let Your children lie down in peace and sleep. Make them dwell safely. Settle their lives and arrange everything perfectly for them.

Those who are saying, “My job is not settled, my life is not settled, there is no child, my future is uncertain,” and those who are weeping—O God of miracles, Wonderful Counselor, born as our Savior—do a wonder today.

From this day onward, let Your children taste and see Your miracles. When they lie down to sleep, let their sleep be sweet and peaceful. Break every bondage of bad dreams. Let them see divine visions.

For those who say, “I cannot sleep even after taking sleeping pills. Fear of death torments me,” Lord, touch them today. Make them dwell safely and grant them peaceful sleep. Let them worship You daily with songs of praise.

Once again, look upon the children celebrating their birthdays and wedding days today. According to this Word, I bless them. As long as they live on this earth, crown them with honor and glory.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

All That Went Away Will Return

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 on this 17th of December through this Auspicious word.

Today, the Lord Himself is coming and standing before you. All those who are ready to receive, take and read Isaiah 45:14: “The labour of Egypt, the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours.”

In the past days, many things that belonged to you went away and did not return. But today, what is the Lord saying? The labour of Egypt, the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans—men of stature—shall cross over many places and hindrances and come to you. What went away from you in the past, the Lord is bringing back today through this Auspicious word. Not only what you lost, but even things you never possessed before, the Lord is giving to you afresh.

That day, David and the 600 men with him lost their children, wealth, cattle, and possessions to the Amalekites. But when the Lord intervened, not only was everything that was stolen returned to them, but they also received additional blessings—everything the Amalekites had taken earlier as well. What went out returned with increase. Many of you are thinking, “Brother, I have lost many things.” Today, along with what you lost, much more is ready for you to receive.

The labour of Egypt means there will be no lack in earning. The merchandise of Ethiopia means there will be no lack in profit. Loss has come to an end. The merchandise of the Sabeans—everything—the Lord will give to you. From now on, the Lord will help you save money and will open ways for you to prosper.

Today you may be saying, “Lord, I am in great scarcity. I am in poverty. My children are eagerly asking for new clothes for Christmas. I desire to buy crackers and gifts for them, but I have no money. Lord, I am struggling greatly.” Are you saying this in tears? Today, pray claiming this verse. Say, “Lord, I take this word for myself. All that I earned has gone in vain. If my negligence, carelessness, or sin was the reason, forgive me, Lord. Give me one more opportunity to recover everything I have lost.” Ask this sincerely in the presence of God.

Not only that—make yourself holy today. Every December, there should be an eagerness for holiness in our hearts. If you have lost that holiness in the past—whether in December or at any time until today—return to the Lord immediately.

Even today, many families are in deep sorrow. Parents are crying and saying, “I lost my child at a young age.” Some say, “My child left me forever. If only they were in a faraway country, it would have been bearable—but they died due to an accident or illness.” Many of you are saying, “This year I have no heart to celebrate Christmas. How can I celebrate when I have lost my child, my husband, or my wife?” Are you saying this in tears?

Today, the God who binds wounds will arise. This year, many families have experienced wailing, groaning, and agony. In such a situation, you may ask, “Lord, how can I celebrate?” The Lord will comfort you and encourage you. If you have lost a child, the Lord can give you more children. If you say, “I am old, how can I conceive?” the Lord can raise generations even through your surviving children.

Look at Naomi. When her husband died, she thought her lineage had ended. But the Lord used her daughter-in-law, and through her, a child was born. The Bible says, “Then Naomi took the child, laid him on her bosom, and became a nurse to him.” That is our God.

So today, wipe away your tears. Do not be angry with God or say you will not celebrate the festive season. Instead, say, “Lord, come near me, stand with me, comfort me, and give me peace.” The Lord will surely give you peace, riches, and wealth.

Testimony

“When I was five months pregnant, the doctor said the nasal bone of my baby was underdeveloped and that there were chances of Down syndrome. They took an NIPT blood test and said the results would take 10 to 15 days. I was in deep sorrow. I sent a prayer request to Brother Stephen for the Anbarin Paathathil meeting. Brother prayed and replied with a Mangala Vaarthai. I kept confessing that word every day. What a surprise! The medical report came back normal. By God’s grace, I delivered a healthy baby through normal delivery.

We were also living in a rented house. I again sent a prayer request to Brother Stephen to pray for us to own a house. He prayed, and by the grace of God, five days before my baby was born, the Lord helped us move into our own house.”

Prayer

Loving Lord, we thank You. You have said that the labour of Egypt, the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans shall come over to us and be ours. We pray that this word will be fulfilled in the lives of Your children. Whatever was missed, slipped away, lost, or seemed impossible to recover—Lord, intervene and do miracles. Redeem what was lost and honour Your children. Even now, look upon those who are celebrating their birthdays and wedding days today. According to this Auspicious word, perform miracles for them.
Amen.

No More Shame

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 this 16th of December through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.

Let us read the Auspicious word from the book of Prophet Joel 2:26: “My people shall never be put to shame.”

Children of God some of you may be questioning in your hearts, “If I am God’s child, why have I been put to shame? Why have I been insulted?” Today the Lord answers you clearly and lovingly, saying, “You are My people.”

To be called God’s people, the Lord desires holiness in our lives. The Word says that the one who lives in sin belongs to the works of darkness, but the one who lives in holiness belongs to the Lord. Even God’s children will face trials, but those trials will turn into testimonies. They will not be destroyed by them. That is the difference. Therefore, the Lord declares, “My people shall never be put to shame.”

Today, say to the Lord, “If the holiness You desire is not found in me, I submit myself to You. Make me holy.” As we come to the end of this year and prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ, let Jesus be born in your heart today. You may have decorated your homes, but now offer your heart to Him. Submit yourself fully to the Lord.

After today, the Lord will not allow you to be put to shame. In the very areas where you experienced shame, sorrow, and humiliation, the Lord is ready to perform miracles. Where you once stood with your head bowed down, He will lift your head high.

Consider Hannah—she lived in shame, but the Lord gave her a child and later blessed her with five children. Rachel, too, said, “The Lord has taken away my reproach,” and named her son Joseph. In the same way, the Lord will replace your shame with honour and adornment.

Testimony

A family running a Xerox shop faced a severe crisis when their machine broke down. For many months, there was no income, and debts increased. In this situation, they sent a prayer request letter to Brother Stephen. After prayer, he replied with a Mangala Vaarthai. The very next day, their son’s father-in-law gifted them a new Xerox machine worth one and a half lakhs and also gave one lakh rupees to clear their debts. See how unexpected help came from heaven. The Lord ensured they were not put to shame.

Prayer

Loving Lord, we thank You. You have declared, “My people shall never be put to shame.” Look upon Your children who have suffered shame, sorrow, and humiliation. In the very matters where they were put to shame, intervene and perform miracles. Lift their heads in the presence of those who looked down on them. We thank You in advance for Your deliverance.

Even now, look upon the children who are celebrating their birthday and wedding day today. According to this Auspicious word, may goodness and mercy follow them throughout this year.
In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Made Like a Signet Ring

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 this 15th of December through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.

Let us read from the book of the prophet Haggai 2:23: “I will make you like a signet ring.”

A signet ring is not an ordinary ring. Though anyone can wear a ring, a signet ring is worn only by a king. It represents royal authority and honour. When a king passes a decree, he seals it with his signet ring, giving it power and legitimacy.

Today, the Lord says He will make you like a signet ring. This means a royal glory is coming upon your life. There will be value in your name, value in your signature, and honour associated with who you are. Until yesterday, people may have looked down upon you, but after today, when they hear your name, they will speak with respect and anticipation. Those who once rejected you will one day desire your presence. The Lord will give power to your words, your work, and even your presence. This is a royal anointing.

Just as David, a shepherd, received a royal anointing, the same God will anoint you. Submit yourself fully to the Lord and say, “Lord, You have said You will make me like a signet ring. Use me so that through my life, good things may happen and many may be blessed.” The Lord will surely do great things.

Testimony

A sister from Nagercoil shared that she began her PhD studies in January 2019 and struggled for six long years without completion. She visited the Nagercoil Prayer Tower, submitted her prayer requests, and prayed. In July 2024, she met Brother Stephen personally, who prayed for her and gave her a Mangala Vaarthai. Believing that word, she prayed daily. By God’s grace, she submitted her thesis in December 2024, successfully completed her final viva in June 2025, and attended her convocation in August 2025. The Lord who helped her complete her long-delayed breakthrough has now honoured her. Truly, the Lord made her like a signet ring.
The same Lord will do it for you too.

Prayer

Loving Lord, we thank You. Your word today has brought joy to our hearts. You have said You will make us like a signet ring. Before this year ends, let our children see the fulfilment of this promise. Confirm Your word with action. Even now, remember those who are celebrating their birthday and wedding day today. According to this Auspicious word, may this promise be fulfilled in their lives within this year itself. Amen
