"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the Churches"  (Rev 3:13)  Precious Child, I want to bring you out of your apprehensions to witness for Christ. You are afraid that people might mock at you. Your throat chokes every time you want to open your mouth to share the Gospel. The fear of ridicule silences you. Don't feel bad about it, My child. This was the problem of the disciples of Jesus also even though they had walked with Him for over three years. Can you imagine how a key figure like Peter could ever deny and disown Christ? Their weakness overpowered their willingness. The problem was solved by My coming. That's why Jesus wouldn't let them go out until they got filled with My power (Acts 1:4). When I came upon them, the cowards became challengers! Be filled with Me. Don't consider your timidity or boast of your oratory skill. Depend on Me. I will grant you boldness in all situations to speak forth the message of the Cros...

Victory thro' the Vanquisher!

"In that Jesus Himself has suffered, being tempted,  He is able to aid those who are tempted" (Heb 2:18) To overcome temptations, look to Jesus. The answer is in Him. He was tempted like us "in all points," but He overcame (Heb 4:15). "He is able to aid those who are tempted" (Heb 2:18). On our part we are to first surrender the organs of our body as a living sacrifice on God's altar (Rom 12:1). We are no more ours. We are bought with a price. We belong to God. Make a covenant with your eyes that you will no more look at someone lustfully (Job 31:1). Present your hands to God so it may not touch the forbidden. And your legs not to go where Christ Himself would not go (Rom 6:13). And so on. Remind yourself of this commitment each morning. The power to say no to sin is yours by the indwelling Christ. You are dead, buried, raised and seated with Him (Rom 6:3,4). Meditate on this fact of identification with Christ as often as possible. To rec...

Wonder Wedding!

By -
"Listen to me, for blessed are those who keep My ways" (Prov 8:32) There are three more lessons for us from the wedding at Cana—   Philosophy of Elders Mary was probably in her fifties. What a blessing it was to have someone like her in the function who had walked with the Lord for decades! (Jn 2:1). Ours is a generation which least respects the elders. Young people mistake education for experience. Bildad's advice to Job is timeless: "Inquire, please, of the former age, and consider the things discovered by their fathers; for we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days on earth are a shadow. Will they not teach you and tell you and utter words from their heart?" (Job 8:8-10). But for the inspired advice of Mary, the wedding feast would have ended up in utter chaos and confusion. It was she who directed the servants to Jesus (Jn 2:5). True there are traditions which are meaningless today. But our understanding gets enlightened w...
