Trust in the Lord - Bro. T. Stephen

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 1st day of September through this Auspicious word. May God bless you. For the past eight months, the Lord safeguarded us as the apple of His eye, and for that, let us give thanks to the Lord.

What is the Auspicious word for us today? Isaiah 12:2 says: “I will trust and not be afraid; for YAH, the Lord, is my strength and my salvation.” Do you know who will be afraid? Those who do not trust in God and do not believe in Him. Such people are filled with fear, no matter how wealthy or powerful they are. Some people have sleepless nights because they have money; others cannot sleep because they lack money. Some fear their future; others worry that despite wealth, they may not find true peace. Fear grips both rich and poor alike. But today, in this new month, the Lord is removing every fear from your life.

Fear pushes a person backward and prevents them from achieving their goal. Sometimes fear even drives people to suicide or depression. Fear is dangerous and must be uprooted today itself. Many times, people do not die from a disease itself but from the fear of death. Fear is the greatest enemy, but you are not born to live in fear—you are born to live victoriously, to be zealous for God, and to fulfill His purposes. Therefore, cast away the spirit of fear and replace it with faith and courage. No matter what happens, give thanks to the Lord. At worst, you may lose your job, fail in something, or even face death—but even in death, you will be with the Lord. If one way closes, God will open another. Even if people speak against you, once you succeed, the same people will marvel at you.

Sometimes God allows failures so that we may pursue success with more enthusiasm. Do not be discouraged or afraid of disease, failure, or loss. If the Lord desires, He can deliver you in a moment. Fear is nothing but unbelief. Many, out of fear, speak and think negatively, and because of that, they miss God’s blessings. But today, as we begin this new month, ask the Lord to remove the spirit of fear and fill you with the spirit of courage.

The Bible repeatedly says, “Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be afraid, I am your God.” Fear destroys life and breaks the future. But the Lord calls you to be bold as a lion. He will be with you and do great things. He says, “I will give you My strength.” Those who feel weak, the Lord will strengthen you. In your weakness, His strength will be made perfect. Those who are beginning this month with sickness will be healed by the wounds of Jesus. Those longing for their family’s salvation will see the Lord cover them with His garment of salvation. Salvation will come to your household. The Lord will also remove every spirit of depression and give you peace of mind.

Do not speak negatively saying, “I cannot do it, I will fail, I am not able.” Instead, trust in the Lord who turns all things positive. Hold firmly onto Him, and He will make all things work for good.

Testimony

I am working as an electrical engineer in Kuwait. For four months I did not receive my settlement amount and was unable to return to India. Though the court gave settlement to others, mine was delayed. My wife and mother attended the Anbarin Paathathil Oru Naal meeting and prayed with Brother Stephen. Soon after, I received a call from the company. They told me that if I withdrew the case from the court, they would settle my amount immediately. They gave me an initial payment, and once I withdrew the case, I received the full settlement. Remarkably, this happened on April 5th, 2025—the very day of the Anbarin Paathathil Oru Naal meeting. Truly, this was the Lord’s miracle and the answer to prayer. On April 9th, I returned to India joyfully with my settlement. The Lord who did this for this brother will also do miracles for you.

Prayer

Loving Lord, we thank You. I pray for every child in Your presence. In the name of Jesus, I command the spirit of fear to leave them. Fill them with Your courageous Holy Spirit. Let them trust in You and boldly declare, “The Lord is my strength and my salvation.” Be their strength, Lord, and perfect Your power in their weakness. Let sickness be healed, bondages be broken, and every weapon formed against them fail. Cancel every sorcery and renew their lives. Bless them to soar on wings like eagles. Let every unsaved family member receive salvation today. Remove depression and poverty, and let the God of abundance be with them. Bless those celebrating their birthdays and anniversaries, and may this Auspicious word be fulfilled throughout this year.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen.
