My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. On this day, the 1st of September, I consider it a great privilege to meet you through this Auspicious Message. This gives me great joy. This is the Mangala Vaarthai for this day. Deuteronomy 33:27 says, “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.”
My dear brothers and sisters, it is not that the eternal God also, but the eternal God alone is your refuge. The term “eternal” means our God lives forever and ever. This means a God who surpasses all ages and is alive forever. Such a God is your refuge. He is a God who lives with you in all circumstances. If there were another option, people would not put their trust in God, but that trust in God would be divided. Wherever you pursue a particular goal, your mindset should be focused on that same route. It should not deviate to another way. Only then will you be able to see and obtain the crown of victory. So, never shift your trust from God to any other thing. God is everything for you. He is God for eternal ages to come. He is God at present and in the future. He is your God.
My dear children of God, if you depend on a man and sometimes take refuge in them, they may keep you until your work is done. But if you think that these people will help you till the very end and protect you, they may desert you when they no longer need you. But the Lord is not like that. He is beyond all that. He lives beyond ages, beyond situations, and He loves you without expecting anything in return. The next verse says, “Underneath are the everlasting arms.” “Eternal” and “Everlasting” are similar words meaning immortal—one who lives through all ages of time and the one who lives forever and ever. So, the Lord says, His everlasting arms will be your source and comfort.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, we thank You. Lord, on the first day of this month, You said that the eternal God is our refuge, and underneath are His everlasting arms. Lord, I place this verse upon the heads of all the children, and as a man of God, I bless them. From today onwards, let there be a great resurrection in their lives, and throughout this new month, let them have a good experience of walking with You, holding Your hand. We commit all of them into Your hands. Those who have entrusted themselves into the hands of others and have held the hands of others, let them today start walking by holding the hands of God. We are taking refuge in You, we are taking refuge in You as a family. You guide us, You do great things for us. Please provide everything that we need throughout this month. In Jesus’ name, we pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Today, August 31st, is the last day of this month. I am very glad to bring the Mangala Vaarthai of God to you through this auspicious message. Let’s take from the book of 1 John 5:14, “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.”
My dear brothers and sisters, one thing is very certain: if we ask anything according to His will, our prayer will be heard, and that request will be fulfilled. However, it’s important to highlight that we should never assume that God will grant everything we ask for. Sometimes, we might unknowingly ask for something that could bring harm or danger to us. There could be a hidden danger, like a bomb that could burst and cause devastation to our family. We might ask without realizing the potential harm behind it. This is why God advises us to ask for things according to His will. When we do this, the Lord will hear and respond to our requests. This is something we can be certain of.
The disciples once asked Jesus to teach them how to pray because the Lord is a great prayer warrior. Today, many do not pray by saying, “Lord, I desire to have this, but if it is Your will, please give it to me.” Instead, they pray, “Lord, you must give me a job in this company. Lord, you should surely bless this business.” They pray this way without knowing the hidden dangers in their requests, compelling the Lord to answer their prayers. But they do not realize that there might be snares or traps in what they ask for. There is a verse in the Bible that says, “There is death in that pot.” So, without knowing that there is death in the pot, we should not ask for the pot, because it might cause us pain. Only God knows the hidden dangers. Therefore, we need to carefully consider what we ask for and ensure that it will bring blessings and not problems. This is why we should ask the Lord, saying, “Lord, grant me a good job if it is Your will. Lord, grant me a good life partner if it is Your will. Lord, grant me the gift of a child if it is Your will. Lord, if it is Your will, grant me a house in a good location. Lord, if it is Your will, grant me a place to conduct my ministry.” If a child of God prays according to the will of God, then their prayer will surely be answered, as per this verse. It will surely happen. So, we need to make a change in the way we pray.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, we thank You. We thank You for this last day of the month. Lord, the days have passed by so quickly. Lord, You have taught us something good on this last day of the month—that whatever we ask must be according to the will of God, and we can be confident that You will grant our petition. We thank You for all the goodness, grace, and mercy that You have granted to Your children throughout this month. We offer You ten thousand million thanksgivings at Your feet, and we look forward to the new month, O Lord. Help us to begin the new month with a new and good Mangala Vaarthai. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.
My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. On this day, August 30th, I am glad to meet you through this auspicious message. May the Lord bless you. Let’s read together from the book of 1 Peter 1:25, “But the word of the Lord endures forever.”
My dear brothers and sisters, today the Lord wants to bless you with a permanent blessing. If God grants a person a blessing, He will not bring sorrow with it. The Lord blesses the righteous with His blessings. So, what you need is a permanent blessing—one that doesn’t just last for a few days and then disappear. Sometimes, a person might buy a car, but it requires repairs, leading to a financial crisis. They might end up having to sell the car, or if they can’t pay the financer, the financer might take the car away. This kind of blessing is not permanent.
Similarly, some people buy a house with great desire, but due to debt and insufficient income, the bank might seize the house. They could end up standing on the road like orphans. The peace they enjoyed in a rented home isn’t found in the house they purchased because of their debts. They couldn’t establish themselves in the house permanently. This is a problem many face. However, this verse says that the Word of the Lord endures forever. It doesn’t say the blessing will endure forever. The Lord will send His Word and establish it. He will confirm it by sending His Word. The Bible says that God first sends the Word, and after He has spoken, He fulfills it with His hands.
The Bible also says, “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My Word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:10-11) So, all the Words and promises that God has given you will be fulfilled. Hold on to the Words of the Lord which are firm and established, and the Lord will bless you.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, we thank You. I bless all the children in the name of Jesus. Lord, You have said that Your Word will remain forever. Please fill the hearts of these children with Your Word that remains forever. Fill them wholly with Your Word, and bless them with blessings that endure, just as the ocean is filled with water. Let their hearts be filled with the knowledge of God, and let Your Word fill them with the riches, wealth, and fortune that they need. I pray with humility that the verses and promises You have given them, which are yet to be fulfilled, may come to pass in their lives.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let us draw encouragement from the Word of the Lord. From the book of Psalms 146:9, we read: “The Lord watches over the strangers. He relieves the fatherless and the widows.”
Today, you might be feeling as if no one cares for you, as if no one is there to lift you up. You may think that if your father were here, he wouldn’t have left you in this state. You may believe that if your father were here, he would have provided a home for you, or found you a job. You might even feel that if your mother were here, she would have prayed fervently and helped you settle down by now. If you are feeling abandoned like an orphan, remember this: God is stepping into the place of your father and mother. What the Lord will do for you is beyond what your parents could ever do, and it will be far greater. Trust in His provision and care, for He is always with you, delivering and comforting.
Your reflection on Joseph’s story is deeply moving. It highlights the powerful message of how God’s faithfulness and justice are at work even in the most challenging circumstances. Joseph’s journey from being sold into slavery and imprisoned to becoming a leader in Egypt shows that God’s plans can transform our darkest moments into times of profound blessing. Joseph’s story teaches us that despite facing immense trials and having no visible support, God’s timing and provision are perfect. His refusal to sin and his faithfulness amidst temptation were key factors in his eventual elevation. This story encourages us to trust in God’s ability to bring us out of our troubles and to remain steadfast in our commitment to righteousness, knowing that God’s plans for us are greater than we can imagine.Your call to run away from sin and seek God’s rebuilding in our lives resonates powerfully. It’s a reminder that God not only helps us through our trials but also transforms us into something greater, much like He did with Joseph.
Prayer: Dear Lord, We thank You for Your endless grace and provision. Please remember the fatherless and widows, and rise up to support them. Provide for their needs as only You can, and let Your will be done in their lives. Just as You provided for Ruth, who was a widow, and gave her a new beginning, we ask that You do the same for Your children. Build their lives with Your justice and impartial love.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray.Amen.
My beloved children in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. May God bless you. Let us read Psalms 27:5: “For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; in the secret place of His tabernacle, He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.”
David recollects how God saved him in times of trouble. This Psalm is a testimony of his life, where he beautifully describes the miracles God performed for him. “In the time of trouble, He shall hide me in His pavilion; in the secret place of His tabernacle, He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.” On one side, this is a declaration of faith, and on the other, it describes his experience. God will be with us in times of trouble. Just as David described, his life was threatened on all sides. His uncle Saul hunted him like a deer, continuously positioning 3,000 warriors to find and destroy him. Saul was determined to hunt him down.
At one point, knowing that David was on a mountain, Saul surrounded that mountain with 3,000 warriors, thinking, “You cannot escape me this time.” But inside, there were just David and his bodyguard, Abishai—only two people. These 3,000 were trained soldiers, and there seemed to be no way of escape. But according to this verse, when David made a faith declaration to the Lord, the day his life was in danger, when he was surrounded by men hiding to attack him so he could not escape, “For in the time of trouble, He shall hide me in His pavilion; in the secret place of His tabernacle, He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.” Just as he prayed, God gave anesthesia to all the 3,000 warriors. In the Bible, anesthesia is referred to as deep sleep. These 3,000 came with murderous rage, but the Lord had wonderfully carried David out.
The Bible says, “Like birds flying about, so will the Lord of hosts defend His children. Defending, He will also deliver; passing over, He will preserve.” Perhaps you are also caught in something, or trapped by an inappropriate person, with no way of escape—unable to escape from him or her, or burdened with an irrevocable debt. You might think, “My life is over; I am trapped. Everything is over; I am caught.” Today, declare this verse and pray: “For in the time of trouble, He shall hide me in His pavilion.” He will hide you, cause you to escape, and save your life. Beloved children of God, the one who wanted to destroy you will be destroyed. And the Lord will save your life. Today, God says, “He prepares a table before me in the presence of my enemies and anoints my head with oil.”
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank You. Some are crying out while listening to these words. According to this verse, somehow save and rescue me, Lord. I should not perish in this. Even if I have sinned, rescue me and bring me out, Lord. Henceforth, I will be true to You. From now on, those who see them should say, “Let us not interfere in his affairs; his status is on a different level now, his God is standing with him. We cannot stand against him.” Lord, help them to step aside from my children. Lord, bring them out of every sin and debt they are trapped in, causing them to thrive. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
