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 January 18th through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word the Lord has for us today? Isaiah 40:31 says:“But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles.”
Yes, beloved children of God, the children who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles and rise high once again.
Today the Lord is saying that He is going to give you new strength. The Lord who said, “My mercies are new every morning,” is giving you today:New grace, New strength, New anointing, New power, New wisdom, New understanding.
The Lord will help you henceforth to arise and shine.Consider the eagle. When an eagle becomes old, the feathers on its wings fall one by one. It sits helpless, like a hen without feathers. But as it waits patiently, the Lord causes new feathers to grow again on its wings. Once they are fully grown, the eagle rises and flies high again.
My beloved children of God, some of you are crying out and saying: I need another opportunity. I should arise and shine again. I once achieved great things, but now I have become nothing. I am silent now. I am weakened.
Children of God who are expecting a new opportunity this day is the day of new opportunities. For this, you must seek the Lord who gives new strength. You must ask Him.
Say this verse and pray: “Lord, we are a more special creation than eagles. You have made us in Your image. If even eagles receive new strength when they become old, Lord, give me that strength also.”
The weakness in your body will change. Those of you who cannot walk will walk. Those who cannot lift their hands those who are unable even to take their hands back to fasten a pin, and who are crying because of it the Lord will give you strength today.
Call upon Him and say, “O Lord, You are my strength.” The Lord will give you new strength and bless you. He will give you the strength of a wild ox so that you may run, work, and prosper in these days.
Some of you are saying: In my young age itself, I have so much weakness. In my young age, I have this disease. In my young age, I have diabetes. In my young age, I have a skin disease. In my young age, I have continuous bleeding. In my young age, I have been diagnosed with a deadly disease.
Are you crying like this? Today the Lord will touch you and heal you. He will give you new strength.
Testimony
For the past three daysFriday, Saturday, and Sundaythe Kumari Blessing Festival has been going on. Today is Sunday, the final day. I believe this festival began about 8 to 10 years ago.
If I explain how this festival started: In the Kumari region, many of you know Dr. Dhilip Kumar of SJ Nursing Home. At one point, he was not just at the verge of death his brain itself was declared dead. He suffered from multi-organ failure. There was no medical hope.
At that time, the Lord gave a Mangala Vaarthai through me: “You shall not die, but live and declare the works of the Lord.”
According to that Mangala Vaarthai, the Lord revived his dead brain. Medically, when the brain is dead, there is no chance of survival. But my beloved children of God, his brain was revived. His kidneys were revived. His lungs were revived. His heart began to function again.
The Lord gave him new strength, just as He gives new strength to the eagle. Today, he works faster and stronger than before. Before everyone’s eyes, it is a wonder. He is truly a man who died and lived again.
According to the promise the Lord gave—“I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord”—every year they spend lakhs of rupees and conduct this Kumari Blessing Festival. Their desire is this: “The Lord who gave me new strength and life should also do miracles for people who are affected like I once was.”
That is why this festival is conducted by their family. The Lord who gave new strength and life to Dr. Dhilip Kumar, who delivered him from the trap of death, will do the same for you.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. You have said, “They shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles.” Lord, help Your children to arise high again.
Give them new strength, new anointing, new power, and new grace. Let Your power descend upon Your children. After today, let them jump, rise, walk, and work. Let spiritual growth come through this new anointing. Let signs and wonders follow them.
Lord, revive wombs. Give new hearts, new livers, new lungs, new kidneys. Perform miracles, O Lord. Bless those who are at the verge of death.
Bless those celebrating birthdays and wedding anniversaries today. Let Your word be fulfilled throughout this year.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
