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 August 14th through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Let us read Matthew 21:42: “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.”
Children of God, some of you may be thinking, “Nobody likes me. No one needs me. Everyone has isolated me. Even in my workplace, they have cornered me. In my community, they have cornered me. Even in the church, they have cornered and rejected me. Nobody likes me.”
Children of God who are saying this, the Lord is looking at you and saying, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.”
According to this verse, the Lord took the stone that was rejected by the builders and made it the chief cornerstone. In the same way, all those who rejected you, isolated you, and said, “We do not need you,” will see the Lord lift you up and place you in a position of honour. He will make you like a beautifully sculpted cornerstone in a palace and beautify your life. I do not know whether people like you or not, but I know this: the Lord loves you.
When the Lord saw a leper, He did not tell him to stand far away and say, “From here I will bless you and heal you.” The Bible says that Jesus touched him and healed him. When children came to Him, He embraced them and blessed them. He loves the poor, and He is the God who cares for the oppressed.
For those who feel that they are outside, the Lord who suffered outside the camp will bring you into the camp. He is making special arrangements for you.
Those who said, “This will not work out,” “He will not improve,” “He will never be successful,” or “She will never succeed”—the Lord will make you so successful that all of them will look at you in amazement.
Today, the Lord is giving you special wisdom, knowledge, divine understanding, power, talents, and skills. People will look at you and say, “Does he really have this much grace, talent, and skill?” The Lord is going to make you an achiever.
Testimony
“My daughter is living with her husband and two children in London. Her daughter is working as a lecturer at a university in the UK.
They were living in a rented house and paying a high rent. They made several attempts to buy their own house, but there were many hindrances. I watched Brother Stephen’s sermons on Nambikkai TV and prayed along with him every day.
I participated in the APO fasting meeting and prayed. I heard the testimonies of people who said, ‘We bought a house and land,’ and I was amazed. Whenever I heard such testimonies, I prayed, ‘Lord, please give my daughter a good house in London too.’
Brother Stephen also prayed for those who did not have their own houses, asking the Lord to give them houses. The Lord heard that prayer and graciously helped my daughter purchase her own house in London, UK, worth ₹3 crores. The Lord heard the prayers offered by Brother Stephen and performed a great miracle. Thanks be to God!”
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. Lord, You are saying to them, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.” Not only will You lift them up and honour them, but You are promising to build a house for them.
For such children, Lord, give them their own houses to live in. Give them land, wells, gardens, and everything they need. Help them to live peacefully and happily in their own homes.
Lord, remove every hindrance and open the right doors. Let the rejected be honoured, the forgotten be remembered, and those who were pushed aside be lifted up. May this Auspicious word be fulfilled in the lives of Your children from this very moment. Amen.
