MERCY OF GOD - Bro. T. Stephen

I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Luke 1:50, “And His mercy is upon generation after generation, toward those who fear Him.” 

From the above context we understand that the mercy of God is upon generation after generation, toward those who fear Him.  God wants to be merciful to you, but you need to make an effort to change your behaviour according to the desire of God. 

Many of you are reading this message with a hope of receiving a miracle from God. Miracle will happen based on the change you make in your mind. Change of  mind  is  very   essential  for you to receive a miracle from God. While preparing this message and when I happened to meditate upon this particular verse, an incident that took place in our Prayer Tower came to my mind, and I wish to share this to the readers so that you will know how important it is to have a change in the mind. 

Some days back a young man came up to me in tears  saying, he had  come   hiding from the police, who were chasing after him. “I said to him “But why did you come to the Prayer Tower, the Police will come here for inquiry and we will be in trouble.”But he cried bitterly saying if only a change comes in the mind of my wife all things will be fine. He continued speaking, that he was a drunkard before marriage, but not knowing this,  he was given in marriage  to a good girl from a good family.   And his wife came to know about his bad habit,   few days after his marriage. And on one such occasion he had  come home drunk and as a result a quarrel broke between husband and wife and because she spurned at him he hit her with a vase which caused  bleeding from the head,  and she left to her father’s house.   Her family launched an FIR against her husband and her husband’s family charged him of murder attempt.  So this young man took an auto and under the advice of his mother approached me for help and prayer.

I prayed to the Lord asking for His guidance regarding this issue. And the Lord clearly spoke to me,    asking me to go and meet his wife in person and talk to her,   on behalf of this young man.  Therefore taking their address I went to her house that same night. By then her brother from Dubai had flown to Chennai, owing to this matter and make a decision whether she should continue with him, a bad drunkard. When I knocked her door, she came to receive me and was very shocked to see me.  She said. “Uncle how is it that you have come to our home at this point of time.”  I said to her that I had come in need of her help and only she could help in solving my problem.  Her parents including her brother   said that they were ready to help me   in whatever measure they could help in order to solve my problem.  And immediately she said, “Uncle you are praying for thousands of people. You shouldn’t cry. I am willing to do anything that you ask for.”  Then with tears in my eyes I asked her to cancel the case registered against her husband and his family and   forgive him   for his wrong doings and accept him once again and live with him. I told her about  her husband’s visit to the  Tower Of Refuge,  and his confession that he wouldn’t drink again and would not cause further trouble to her instead he would  keep her in good state. 

The girl responded to my request and said, “ Uncle  I will live with him,  because You are  a Prophet and  You will  surely say the right thing for me. Since You have asked, I shall cancel the case registered against my husband and his family.”The lawyer caused some problem but I told him that he should support   the couple to join and not cause further commotion. Her brother wisely dealt the matter and sent him away. All seemed to be happy and peace prevailed in their house, I prayed for them and returned. Today the couple are happy living together. They attend all our meetings and he carries his two children and takes good care of his wife. Thus we see that a change came upon his wife. And the whole matter was solved amicably. 

As  a father pities his children, So the Lord pities those who fear Him. The young man repented of his sin and confessed that he wouldn’t commit sin again. Therefore God took pity on him and reunited his family. This was the miracle he expected when he came to the “ Tower of Refuge.”God answered his prayer. Yes, God comforts his children,  as one whom his mother   comforts. Further God says, I will have mercy on whomever, I will have mercy and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion. May this message help you to attain the mercy and compassion of God just as the young man who received God’s blessing. 

Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord teach us to make a change in our mind so as to walk in Your steps. Help us to listen to the voice of God and repent of our sins and never to repeat it again. We seek Your mercy and compassion Oh Lord. Enable us to be humble before God. And receive favour in the sight of God and man. 

In Jesus name we pray. 

Amen.
