August 27, 2025
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 on this day, August 27th, through this Auspicious Word.
What is the Auspicious Word for today? It is from James 4:6: “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Yes, God gives grace to the humble. Today, His unlimited grace is descending upon you. But how do you receive it? By humbling yourself before the Lord—casting away every trace of pride: pride of caste, pride of beauty, pride of money, or pride of wealth. Instead, surrender and say, like Mary, “Be it unto me according to Your word.”
The Bible says, “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.” (James 4:10). The path to promotion is humility. Before greatness comes humility. Even if you feel unworthy, God’s grace will exalt you and set you among kings.
David was a shepherd boy, but God lifted him to become king. Saul was searching for donkeys when God anointed him as king. In the same way, the Lord will lift you from your lowly state and place you in positions of honour. The One who turns the rejected stone into the cornerstone will lift you up in the very place where you once hung your head in shame.
In your workplace, in your business, and in your community—the Lord will glorify you. Therefore, clothe yourself with humility, cast away all pride, and say, “Lord, You are my everything.” When you do so, the Lord—who does exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think—will perform great and miraculous things in your life.
A Testimony
We, as a family, participated in the Anbarin Paathathil Oru Naal fasting meeting, and we glorify God through this testimony.
My daughter-in-law, Veni, was married for five years but remained childless. Every month, she suffered extreme stomach pain, as severe as delivery pain. On a medical examination, the doctor said she had five chocolate cysts in her uterus. Surgery was performed to remove two, but three still remained. The doctor also said that even after further treatment, the chances of her conceiving were only 2%.
At that time, we heard about Brother Stephen’s meeting and attended. During the sermon, Brother Stephen said the Lord was leading him to pray for women with chocolate cysts. He prayed and also prophesied: “You are thinking, has the Lord forgotten me? Will a door not open for my children? But the Lord says, I am opening the door. I have placed a child in your daughter-in-law’s womb.”
I immediately conveyed this prophecy over the phone to my daughter-in-law, who was still bleeding then. Later, when she went for a medical check-up, the doctors confirmed the prophetic word. By God’s grace, she conceived, and the Lord blessed her with a beautiful son. Glory to God.
Today, the Lord is saying to you: whatever cyst—chocolate cyst, fibroid, or any other condition—you may have, He will destroy it. In the very place of sickness, the Lord will bless you and honour you with a child.
Prayer
Loving Lord Jesus, we thank You. You have said that You give grace to the humble. In Your grace, open the wombs of Your children and bless them with offspring. Lord, wherever Your children have fallen, lift them up.
Not only do You give grace to the humble, but You also exalt and glorify them. Elevate those who are jobless, those who are in despair, and seat them with kings. Glorify them with Jacob’s inheritance. Bring forward those who are lagging behind. Provide good jobs, good income, and let their hearts rejoice. Break every bondage in their lives and bless them abundantly.
Even today, bless those who are celebrating their birthdays and wedding anniversaries. Let this Auspicious Word be fulfilled throughout the year in their lives.
In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
