"Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent. Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the Lord." - Psalm 4:4-5
Luke 19 26 “He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away. Per Paul, we are God's co-workers. God has Blessed us with talents and gifts so that we can be a Blessing to others. When He assigns a work to us , could be small or big always give your best. See how you can constantly improve and complete it successfully. Never remain stagnant or give excuses and not do the work. Matthew 9 : 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; End days are nearing and Gospel message has to be taken to all people. Fresh revivals should occur in every place, every family, every individual. So joyfully and prayerfully join hands with God and be part of His wonderful work. Sharing Gospel message doesn't always need to be public speaking. It can be as simple as a blog like this or sharing a Bible verse or ...
"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...
"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...
