GOD SENDS YOU HELP.

GOD SENDS YOU HELP JANUARY 6-2014

PROMISE VERSE: - He will send from heaven and save; he will put to shame him who tramples on me. God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness. PSALM 57:3.



Dear friends when we struggle in problems; it is nature to look for a help from somebody or anyone. But God sends his timely help and steadfast love to his children. God sees our problems and critical situations and sends his timely help from above. Let us look up for his timely help from heaven. Let us see that how our loving God sends his timely help to his faithful people.
1.      God sent help to Joshua : - the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, saying, do not relax your hand from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us and help us, for the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the hill country are gathered against us. Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor. And the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not fear them, for I have given them into your hands. Not a man of them shall stand before you.” So Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched up all night from Gilgal. And the Lord threw them into panic before Israel, who struck them with a great blow at Gibeon and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and struck them. And as they fled before Israel, while they were going down the ascent of Beth-horon, the Lord threw down large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died. There were more ho died because of the hailstones than the sons of Israel killed with the sword. God sent timely help from heaven to Joshua and people of Israel. Today he will send you timely help from heaven.
2.      God sent timely help to Moses: - Moses had delivered the people of Israel from the bondage of Egypt and led them to the land of milk and honey, according to the command of God. Then the red sea forbids them to enter into the land of Canaan. When Pharaoh drew near, the people of Israel lifted up their eyes, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they feared greatly. And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you have only to be silent. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward. Lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, that the people of Israel may go through the sea on dry ground. Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord drove the sea back by a strong east wind all night and made the sea dry land. And people of Israel enter into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being a wall to them on their right and left. The Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh’s horse, his chariots, and his horsemen. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the water may come back upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and upon the horsemen. So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal course, the waters covered the chariots and horsemen, not one of them remained.

3.      Dear friends God will send the timely help to his children; so let us lift up our eyes to the hills. From where does our help come? Our help comes from the lord who made heaven and earth.

And this came to the knowledge of Mordecai, he told it to Queen Esther and Esther told about the plot to the king in the name of Mordecai. When the affair was investigated and found to be so, the men were both hanged on the gallows. And it was recorded in the book of the chronicles in the presence of the king. After these thing king Ahasuerus promoted Haman the Agagite and advanced him and set his throne above all the officials who were with him. King had commanded concerning him; all the king’s servants should bow and pay homage. But Mordecai did not bow down or pay homage. Haman was filled with fury. He plotted and sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus. Mordecai informed about the plots of Haman to Queen Esther. Esther fasted and prayed for 3days and revealed the plots of Haman to the King Ahasuerus. The king investigated and found it was true, so he hanged him on the gallows which he made for Mordecai. The king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave to Mordecai. Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the King in royal robes of blue and white, with great golden crown and fine linen and purple, and the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.

At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, Ask what I shall give you. And Solomon said, “You have shown great and steadfast love to your servant David, my father, because he walked before you in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart toward you and you have kept for him this great and steadfast love you have made his son to sit on his throne. And now, O lord my God, although I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in. and your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen, a great people, too many to numbered or counted for multitude.. Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your people, that I may discern between good and evil, for who is able to govern this great people? It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. And God said to him, “because you have asked and seek this, and have not asked for your long life or riches or the life of your enemies, but have asked and seek for yourself understanding to discern what is right, behold, I now do according to your word. Behold, I give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you and none like you shall rise after you. I give you also what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that no other king shall compare with you, all your days. And if you will walk in my ways, keeping my statutes and commandments as your father David walked, and then I will lengthen your days.

3.      Dear children of God let us walk uprightly and seek His right guidance, then God shall give us the riches and honor and glory what we did not ask. let us own the honor and glory by walking in His ways.

SURELY RESCUE ALL.

SURELY RESCUE ALL - JANUARY-4 2014

PROMISE VERSE: - And David inquired of the Lord, shall I pursue after this band? Shall I over take them? God answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake and shall surely rescue. 1 Samuel 30:8.



Dear children of God every man or woman has the experience of gain and loss in his or her life. Sometime heavy loss will pursue them in their life and this experience will bring them to vexation and void. But our God of hosts will rescue all the loss to seek him diligently and strengthen in God of hosts.  Man under goes into loss of health, wealth, and dear ones. In the loss we need not to be worried or be anxiety; but like David we have to strengthen ourselves in the Lord God of Israel.
1.      Shunammite restored her properties – Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, “Arise and depart with your household, and sojourn wherever you can, for the Lord has called for a famine. Our God Jesus Christ will instruct to those who obey and seek him diligently to protect them from heavy loss or famine. And it will come upon the land for 7 years. So the woman arose and did according to the word of the man of God. At the end of the seven years, when the woman returned from the land of Philistines, she went to appeal to the King for her house and her land.  Now the king was talking with Ghazis the servant of the man of God Elisha, saying “tell me all the great things that Elisha had done”. And while he was telling the king how he had restored the dead to life, behold the woman whose son he had restored to life appealed to the king for her house and her land. And Ghazis said, “My Lord, O King, here is a woman, and here is her son whom Elisha restored to life. And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed an official for her, saying, “Restore all that was hers together with all the produce of the fields from the day that she left the land until now”. Today God will restore all you loss with all produce of all with interests. Today the God of Elisha is living to do a great miracle to rescue all that you have lost.  It may wealth or money or health or anything else. Surely you will rescue all.
2.      David rescued all and nothing was missing. - Now when David and his men came to Ziklag and the Amalekites had made a raid and burned it with fire. And taken captive the women and all who were in it, both small and great. They killed no one, but carried them off and went their way. And when David and his came, they found it burnt with fire, and their wives and children taken captive. David was greatly distressed, but he strengthened himself in the Lord his God. David inquired of the lord, shall I pursue after this band? Shall I overtake them? God answered him, saying, pursue, for you shall surely overtake and shall surely rescue. David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and nothing was missing, and David also captured all the flocks and herds, and the people drove the livestock before him. That was David’s spoil.
3.      Dear friends our God will help you to restore what all you have loosed. God will restore things with double portion. Let us be happy and strengthen in the Lord. Surely you will rescue all. Restore to me the joy of salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.

GOD WILL SATISFY YOU WITH HONEY FROM ROCKS.

GOD WILL SATISFY YOU WITH HONEY FROM ROCKS. JANUARY 3- 2014




Promise verse: -He would feed you with the finest of the wheat, and with honey from the rock would satisfy you.-PS 81:16.
Dear children of God David said that God’s words are sweeter than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. Everyday God satisfies us with the sweeter honey of his words which strengthens us with good things. We need God’s words more than food and worldly blessings. This NEW YEAR God’s word will strengthen us and satisfy our soul and heart.
1.      God’s word satisfied Hannah- while Hannah was barren and had no children. She was ill-treated by her relatives and her rival used to provoke her. She was deeply distressed and prayed to the Lord and wept bitterly. And she vowed a vow and said, O Lord of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your servant and remember me and not forget your servant, but will give to your servant a son, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall touch his head. As she continued praying before the Lord, Eli observed her mouth. Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, and her voice was not heard. Hannah had poured heart before the Lord. She had been speaking out of her great anxiety and vexation. Then Eli answered, Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant your petition that you have made to him. The remembered her. Her anxiety and vexation removed by the sweet word of God and she was satisfied.
2.      God’s word satisfied centurion: - when Jesus entered Capernaum, a Centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly. And Jesus said to him “I will come and heal him. But the centurion replied, “Lord I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. When Jesus heard this marveled and said to him, “Go; let it be done for you as you believed. And the servant was healed at that very moment.

3.      Dear friends today God’s sweeter words will heal you and your family and bless and satisfy you. Kindly read and meditate the God’s words it will find you in good health and satisfaction. God’s words were found, and I ate them, and his words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart.


GOD WILL EXALT YOU.

January 2-2014 God will exalt you.



Promise verse-Joshua 3:7 the Lord said to Joshua, Today I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel, that they know that as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.
Dear children of God everybody wants to exalt themselves. They are trying to reach or attain Excellency; but they could not. But God of Excellency will exalt you and me with honor and majesty.
1.      God exalts the uneducated and common man.:- God had anointed Peter with Holy Spirit and used him as his mighty vessel. He was an uneducated common man. But God did use him by miracles happened in his hands in the name of Jesus. Then Peter, filled with Holy Spirit, said to them, “rulers of the people and elders, if we are being examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed, let it be known to you all that by the name of Jesus Christ Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead- by him this man is standing before you well”.  3000 people were saved and added into the church through his preaching and boldness in Christ. The people were astonished and they recognized that they had been with Jesus. Likewise God will exalt you to do service for him.
2.      God exalts the servant: - Joshua was serving Moses and God. After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over Jordan, you and this entire people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. The Lord God exalted Joshua to lead the people of Israel into the land of milk and honey. God gave him the leadership to lead the entire people to the land of milk and honey. The Lord exalted Joshua in the sight of Israel.
3.      God exalts the prisoners: - Joseph was a God fearing man and he walked in the ways of God and he fled away from Potiphar’s wife’ sin. So he was blamed and put into prison. But God was with Joseph in Jail. The keeper of the prison paid no attention to anything that was in Joseph’s charge, because the lord was with him. And whatever he did, the Lord made it succeed. He interprets the Pharaoh’s dream and then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and made him governor and set over all the land of Egypt.

4.      God will be with us throughout this whole NEW YEAR to exalt us in the sight of the entire people. And if you faithfully obey the voice of the Lord your God, being careful to do all his commandments, the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. Dear brothers and sisters if you are blessed, kindly share with others and friends.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS.

  
HAPPY CHRISTMAS




Dear children of God  this is Christmas season. We need to know the love of God; which is shown in the Calvary cross through Jesus Christ. “For God so loved the world” that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.[JOHN3:16]. For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him; whoever believes in him is not condemned. So it’s good to learn about Christmas. So that, we could celebrate this year Christmas meaningfully; May the Lord Jesus give abundant happiness and joy to celebrate the incarnation day.

When the pagans became Christian, they used evergreens [a sacred tree] for the holiday by decorating them with nuts and candles. They sang Christmas carols as they danced around the tree.

NO TIME I'M BUSY.

No time I’m busy





Dear friends, we live in the busy world. Today no time is a style word used by the little to the bigger people. No time ‘word’ comes from all the people whether they are busy or not. You will be happy if you say no time to TV, CELL PHONE, LAPTOP, FACE BOOK, and SMS. Then the parents will spend time with the family and children. One day a friend of mine was ready to go for bank exams at 10 am but he was searching his pen outside the garden where he lost. The time was fast going he was still searching his pen; I had scolded him to buy a new one and go the bank exam in right time to save his future. He acted according to the advice so now he is working in the bank as officer.
Dear friends our Lord Jesus Christ lived in this world three and a half years only but he achieved great plan of salvation to the mankind; without spending His time in waste. Today people are using the word “no time, I’m busy” to loose bible reading, prayer time, and church services. Today people are spending time in useless things and plans. So they lose the peace of mind and become tension with matter less matters. They are not satisfied, but they searching for infinite things that won’t satisfy them. Their hearts and minds filled with worries and anxieties; that leads them to forget God and His fellowship. So they have no time to seek God and his fellowship. Now they are busy for nothing.
There are 168 hours in each week. Fifty six of them we spend in sleep. Of the remaining 112 hours, we devote 48 to labor. This leaves 64 hours, of which let us assign 12 hours for our daily meals…is it too much to say that God requires a tithe of his people’s free time? One tenth of 52 hours is 5.2 hours. How much of this tithe of time do we devote to strictly religious uses? If one allowed an hour for church and an hour for a Bible reading (study) or prayer meeting each week, he or she would still have 192 minutes a week- enough for nearly a half hour each day in prayer and bible reading. Such a person would still have more than 45 hours a week for life’s chores and personal fun!” more often we give the old excuses, “no time, I’m very busy” or I have too little time.” But the real problem is too little planning of the time we have.
1.      TIME MANAGEMENT BY FULFILLING THE PURPOSE OF GOD: - for we are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do – Eph 2:20. God has made each and every one of us for a reason. God gives us time, gifts and other resources according to our abilities and he expects us to invest them wisely until he returns. We are responsible to use well what God has given us. We are to use our time, talents and treasures diligently in order to serve God completely in whatever we do. It means doing our daily work out of love for God.
2.      TIME MANAGEMENT BY SUBMITTING TO HEAVENLY POTTER: - Yet, o Lord, you are our father. We are the clay, you are potter, and we are the work of your hand - IS 64:8. OUR LOVING God is the heavenly potter who molds our lives. Just as the clay is useless by itself but becomes a useful vessel when it yields itself to the potter. We are incapable of molding our lives. When we surrender ourselves, the body, mind and spirit in his divine hands, he molds us as useful vessels of honor and as vessels of worthy of his glory. When things are going well, we feel elated. When hardships come, we sink into depression. But true joy transcends the rolling waves of circumstances. Joy comes from a consistent relationship with Jesus Christ. Only through prayer and obedience of the word of God, our mind gets renewed and transformed into the likeness of Christ. Then only we can use the time in a right way and useful way.
3.      SOLOMON’S TIME MANAGEMENT: - To everything are a reason, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.  God’s favor is the one who discussed the ultimate emptiness of all that this world has to offer. He searched for satisfaction almost as though he was conducting a scientific experience. Through this process he discovered that without God is a long and fruitless search for enjoyment and fulfillment. What profit has he that work in that wherein he labors? God has given to the children of man to be busy with it. God has made everything beautiful in its time. Also he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
4.      Dear friends Mr THOMAS ALVA EDISON said that I could invent new things in this world, because I had worked hard without looking the clock. People who utilize the 24 hours in a planned right way would live like kings, but one who loses the time in laziness live like beggars.  We know that how we spend our times and wasting them good for nothing. King David had many works to do in everyday duty, but he set apart time for early hours of worshiping the Lord God and meditating God’s word day and night.
