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 on this day, October 21st, through this Auspicious word. May God bless you.
From the Promised Land, from Israel itself, I bring you greetings. By the grace of God, we have come here as a group to visit these Biblical sites. All the prayer requests that you send through the Mangala Vaarthai program are being forwarded to me daily. From this Holy Land, these Biblical places, I am praying for you. Surely, the Lord will answer your prayers.
As you watch this program, continue to send your requests, and they will be sent to me. I will pray for you from this Promised Land. May God bless you!
Today’s Auspicious word is from 2 Chronicles 5:13 — “For the Lord is good, for His mercy endures forever.”
Because the Lord is good, you and I are alive today. There is no greater proof of His goodness than this. If the Lord measured our life span according to our holiness, many of us would not be alive today. We may have done many things that displeased Him, even gone against our conscience. But still, His grace speaks on our behalf before the Father and extends our life.
However, we should not misuse this grace. Today, say to God, “Lord, as much as I can, I will strive to keep You pleased. Until now, I have not made You happy. Forgive me, Lord. From today, help me to live in a way that pleases You.” When you pray this way, your conscience will awaken, and your life will change—your speech, your actions, your thoughts will be renewed.
Now, you are tasting that the Lord is good. Henceforth, may the Lord also taste your goodness as you bear the fruits of repentance. Do good to others. Remember, you will not take anything with you when you go from this world.
Today, even finding a six-foot burial ground has become difficult—cemeteries have become flat systems! So, as long as we live, let us show goodness before people and before God. Let others say, “He is a child of God—he does good.”
When you are good before God, you will see great and marvellous things you could never imagine. The Bible says, “In the house of the righteous, there are many treasures.” When you live righteously, the Lord will fill your home with abundance. Riches and blessings will come to you, so that you may bless others.
And when you are truly good, the Lord will bless every area of your life. If your womb has not borne fruit, the Lord will open it. If you have tasted His goodness only in a few areas, today you will taste and see that the Lord is good in every area of your life.
Testimony:
It has been two years since I got married. My husband works in Kuwait. Because of his job, we were separated for 11 months. My mother and I watched Brother Stephen’s messages daily on YouTube and received great blessings. One day, Brother prayed, saying, “The Lord is uniting families separated due to work—you will worship together in the same church.”
Soon after that prayer, I received my visa, and now I am living with my husband in Kuwait. We attend the same church and worship God together.
Prayer:
Loving Lord, we thank You. For those who are separated due to problems, unite them again, Lord. Let them live in the same home, worship the same God, and attend the same church together.
In every area where my children have not yet tasted that the Lord is good—let them taste and see it today. Perform miracles for them, Lord.
Help Your children to live in a way that pleases You. Let them do good to many people. Bless them to feed the poor, help the needy, support their families, and be a blessing to their neighbours.
Lord, continue to use those who provide food and support to those who come fasting to the Anbarin Paathathil prayer gatherings. Bless each one of them.
Even now, we pray for those celebrating their birthdays and wedding anniversaries today—Let this Auspicious word be fulfilled in their lives throughout this year.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
