Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all on this day, October 16th, through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.
What is the Auspicious word for us today? Psalm 34:15 says, “The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry.”
Today, you are invited to submit yourself to righteous living. The Lord is inviting you to fear your conscience, to fear Him, and to walk according to His commandments. Today, make the effort to live righteously.
Through this Auspicious word, the Lord is calling me to take this same effort in my own life. Lord, in the past, I have followed a wayward path, doing whatever I desired. But from now on, I will not do so. Today, in your heart, make a decision to live righteously. Do not return to your old ways. Some sins you committed in the past are gone; everyone has sinned at some point, but you should not remain trapped in them. Today, the Lord is inviting you to holiness and righteous living. Submit yourself now.
What happens when you do this? The Lord’s eyes will be upon you. If you come into His sight, He will elevate you and make you great. Some people seek favor by frequently presenting themselves before earthly authorities—ministers, chief ministers, or even the prime minister. That is not wrong, but if you come into the sight of the Lord, He will lift you up and place you among kings.
Moreover, the Lord’s ears are open to the righteous. Whatever you ask in accordance with His will will happen. If you have been praying and nothing has happened, take this step today. Resolve that from now on, you will not cause trouble to anyone, be harsh to anyone, or harbor hatred in your heart. You may have hurt your parents, spouse, or others with your words in the past. Today, do not allow that to continue. Ask the Lord to help you, and He will dwell in your heart through the Holy Spirit. Once this happens, the prayers you offer will be heard, and miracles will follow. As you receive, you will be able to bless and help others, and the Lord will abundantly bless you.
Testimony – Sister Carol Premila from Chennai
I continuously watch the sermons of Brother Stephen on TV and YouTube and receive miracles. I also participate in the Anbarin Paathathil fasting meeting and regularly contact the 24-hour telephone prayer tower for prayers. My husband, Vincent, was not feeling well, so we took him to the hospital. After examination, the doctor diagnosed him with throat cancer. He was unable to eat and was struggling, and at the age of 74, they said surgery was not possible.
In this situation, I wrote a letter to Brother Stephen requesting prayer. He prayed and sent a reply letter. I also contacted the 24-hour telephone prayer tower and received prayers. The Lord heard all the prayers and miraculously healed my husband. He is now able to eat well. Furthermore, the Lord graciously helped me repay 4 lakhs of the 8 lakhs debt I had. Even during my husband’s illness, the daily Mangala Vaarthai I watched and heard developed my faith, and miracles happened. Even today, continue to develop your faith. The Lord will perform miracles.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we thank You. From today, I am submitting myself to righteous living. I am committing to holiness and seeking to be a child pleasing to God. May all who submit themselves today remain steadfast in their decision, and may the Lord answer all their prayers. May many good things and auspicious events occur spontaneously in their families. May the matters they have prayed for, which have not yet come to pass, be fulfilled.
Today, as they dedicate themselves to holiness, may miracles begin immediately, minute by minute. May the Lord perform great things. May all blessings that have not yet come to pass manifest abundantly. For those affected with cancer, TB, or other illnesses, may the Lord grant divine health and honor. Even today, we remember the children celebrating their birthday or wedding day—may this Auspicious word bless them throughout the year, according to Your Word.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
