I am with you. - Bro. T. Stephen

Dearly Beloved in Christ, 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  Matthew 28:20, “And Lo,  I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

From the above context we see that God has promised to stay with us till the end of our life. And when He stays with us He assures to increase us day by day. We read in the Bible, that David became greater and greater because God was with him. When you come across problems in your life then all your friends whom you trusted will desert you.  Some of your friends will be closely drawn to you, like ants   that surround   a sugar candy, as long as you have enough money to spend on them.  But the moment   they   come to know that you are in great trouble then nobody will come to help you. You will be left alone to face the problem.  But God will then descend upon you in a marvellous   manner and help you. God says, “Fear not for I am with you, Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes I will help you. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Fear Not you worm Jacob, you man of Israel, I will help you.” says the Lord.

As long as you have name, fame and wealth people will be friendly with you.  But when you have a problem then they will all disappear. If you call them on the phone they will not respond to your call. Only when we face problems, then do we realize the true nature of people. But David says, it was good that I was afflicted that I may know your precepts. This shows that only when people go through problems they read the word of God and draw more closely to God. There is a great difference between God and man in the way they extend help to you. When a man helps you, he expects something in return for having helped you. But God helps you without demanding anything from you because He freely gave His only begotten   son Jesus to die for you on the cross to redeem you,   from the mouth of the grave. What a great God we have.

God is Almighty, all powerful; God accepts you just as you are with all your problems. What is your problem?  Is it debts? You may have crores of rupees to repay. You did not do well in business because of poor knowledge in handling the business. Therefore you seem to have incurred a great loss. Don’t worry cast all your burden upon the Lord. He will sustain you. He will never leave you nor forsake you. He will lead you beside the still waters. Where there are green pastures so that you lack nothing. He says, “Come unto Me all you that labour and are heavy laden for I will give you rest.”  So I urge all those of you who are reading this message to draw close to God. God will be your hiding place; God will protect you from all   your trouble and surround you with songs of deliverance. He will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; He will counsel you with His loving eye. So if God is with you, then You will flourish.   You will bloom. You will be successful in all your endeavour.  God will meet all your needs, according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.     There will be a solution   to all your problems, if Jesus   lives inside of you.  Receive Him today in your heart. For today is the day of Salvation.  God Bless you.

Prayer:  Our loving heavenly Father, we thank   You   for this blessed day. Dear Lord, we thank You for helping us when we go through problems. We often find that our friends and relatives forsake us, at times of difficulty.   But You will never forsake us.  We thank You Lord for reaching out to us during crisis.  For guiding us for being with us always, and solving all our problems and helping us to flourish. 

In Jesus Name We Pray.

Amen.
