PERSISTENT PRAYER - Sis. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran  We ought to pray and not lose heart. When we cry out to God day and night, He shall certainly do justice to us. It is stated in the Bible, "And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? 'I tell you that He will avenge them speedily…." (Luke 18:7, 8). Persistent prayer is again emphasized as "Be always on the watch, and pray" (Luke 21:36).
A sister was worried since her son did not get married even after reaching 31 years. With a broken heart she told me, "Sister! The Lord doesn't hear my prayer at all. I have been persistently praying but I feel God has kept the receiver down at the other end." I told her, "Be of good cheer. The Lord would certainly hear your prayer." When I too joined her in praying with fasting, a great miracle happened. A proposal came in search of her son. Within a short period the Lord heard her prayer and enabled her to conduct her son's marriage in a grand manner. When we cry out to God night and day, He surely answers our prayers.
When my mother got married, my father was away from the Lord. Even the people in that village did not now the Lord. In 1961, my mother concerned about her husband and her relatives started praying with fasting for many days crying out to God, "Oh Lord, only I have accepted You and tasted Your love, please manifest Your love to my husband and relatives also."
One day, being disturbed greatly she made a vow in the presence of God and prayed, "Oh Lord, You have given me four children. Please bring my husband into Your divine fold and I shall dedicate one of my children for Your ministry." She not only prayed for her husband's transformation but also prayed for God to save that entire village.
The Lord heard her prayers and saved my father as well as all her relatives in that village. Today all our relatives in that village have received the joy of salvation. Whenever we see them we offer our grateful thanks to the Lord. Moreover the Lord also chose me from among the four children to do his ministry. What a wonder! The Lord who heard the fervent and tearful prayer of my mother shall certainly listen to your prayer also and do great and mighty things (Acts 16:31).
Dear Friend! When you cry out to God night and day, "Oh Lord, not only me but all my relatives and all my neighbours should also know Your love", the Lord shall certainly listen to your prayer, save all of them and perform mighty miracles in your life.
Prayer
Loving Lord Jesus,
Help me to offer persistent prayers. Give me the grace not to grow weary or lose heart while offering my prayers to You. Please enable me to settle it in my heart that You will speedily avenge Your own elect who cry out day and night to You, though You bear long with me. Strengthen me that I may watch and pray always rejoicing in You.
In Your matchless name I pray.
Amen | |
THINKING ABOUT MY PURPOSE DAY EIGHTEEN ABOUT EXPERIENCING LIFE TOGETHER ' HOW WONDERFUL IT IS, HOW PLEASANT, FOR GOD'S PEOPLE TO LIVE TOGETHER IN HARMONY !" PSALM 133:1 (TEV) I NEED OTHERS IN MY LIFE " SHARE EACH OTHER'S TROUBLES AND PROBLEMS, AND IN THIS WAY OBEY THE LAW OF CHRIST." GALATIONS 6:2 (NLT) WHAT ONE STEP CAN I TAKE TODAY TO CONNECT WITH ANOTHER BELIEVER AT A MORE GENUINE, HEART-TO-HEART LEVEL ? |
| FAITHFULNESS  "What is the recipe for successful achievement? To my mind there are just four essential ingredients: Choose a career you love, give it the best there is in you, seize your opportunities, and be a member of the team."~ Benjamin F. Fairless There is an interesting parable in Mathew 25:14 about three servants being entrusted with five,two and one talent each. It is stated that the first two servants were rewarded for their faithfulness in working with the talent given them whereas the last servant was punished for being lazy and wicked for not having utilised the one talent given to him.Achievement is about utilising our talents to the full and is a measure of our faithfulness to God,for after all the talents have been given for a purpose. As faithful stewards we are expected to use the talents for the greater glory of God and for the enrichment of the community. | |

DAILY VERSE
Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. 1 Peter 4:10
DAILY QUOTE
One thing taught large in the Holy Scriptures is that while God gives His gifts freely, He will require a strict accounting of them at the end of the road. Each man is personally responsible for his store, be it large or small, and will be required to explain his use of it before the judgment seat of Christ. A.W. Tozer
DAILY THOUGHT There is a familiar story of three men who were given varying talents by their master. (See Matthew 25:14–30.) The man with the most talents did the most. Not surprising. The man with the second most talents came in second place. Not unexpected. The third man did absolutely nothing. Of course. He didn't have enough to make a difference. When the master saw that he had buried what was given to him, he took it away.
Is that fair? What if he had lost the meager amount on a bad investment? Wouldn't he have been in bigger trouble? Jesus' story doesn't seem to indicate that. He says nothing about being judged on the basis of failing. Judgment is based on doing nothing, burying the talents God has given us.
What resources has God given you to work with in life? Has He given you a lot or a little or something in between? Your answer isn't important. All that matters is what you're going to do with what you've got. What investment do you need to make in your world?
Lord, help me to conquer fear and use my talents for good—for You. Thank You for blessing me. Amen. |
 "If, before going to bed every night, you will tear a page from the calendar, and remark, "there goes another day of my life, never to return," you will become time conscious."~ A. B. Zu Tavern It's not too late to achieve your goals. You may have to work a little harder, a little faster... take smarter actions, a bit more consistently... and permit yourself the luxury of having faith. Especially faith in yourself. | | |
| GENESIS 17:7 "I will always keep the promise I have made to you and your descendants, because I am your God and their God." "Overwhelmed, Abram fell flat on his face. Then God said to him, "This is my covenant with you: You'll be the father of many nations. Your name will no longer be Abram, but Abraham, meaning that 'I'm making you the father of many nations.' I'll make you a father of fathers—I'll make nations from you, kings will issue from you. I'm establishing my covenant between me and you, a covenant that includes your descendants, a covenant that goes on and on and on, a covenant that commits me to be your God and the God of your descendants. And I'm giving you and your descendants this land where you're now just camping, this whole country of Canaan, to own forever. And I'll be their God." PLEASE REMEMBER THAT AT THE TIME GOD MADE THIS PROMISE, ABRAHAM WAS OLD AND IMPOTENT AND HE DID NOT OWN EVEN AN INCH OF LAND IN CANAAN. BUT ABRAHAM CONTINUED TO HAVE FAITH IN GOD'S PROMISE AND BELIEVED THAT GOD IS CAPABLE OF FULFILLING THE PROMISE WHATEVER BE HIS PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES. AND ABRAHAM WAS REWARDED FOR THIS FAITH IN DUE TIME. THAT IS THE REASON ABLE IS OUR MODEL FOR FAITH. | tpRthr jpd jpahdk; | | flTspd; ;rpaj;jpypUe;J jpdKk; ngWk; thf;FWjpfs; | | rp.vr;.];gH[d; | |

THINKING ABOUT MY PURPOSE DAY SIXTEEN WHAT MATTERS MOST IN MY LIFE " LOVE MEANS LIVING THE WAY GOD COMMANDED US TO LIVE. AS YOU HAVE HEARD FROM THE BEGINING, HIS COMMAND IS THIS : LIVE A LIFE OF LOVE. " 2 JOHN 1:6 (NCV) LIFE IS ALL ABOUT LOVE " THE ENTIRE LAW IS SUMMED UP IN A SINGLE COMMAND : ' LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." GAL. 5:14 (NIV) HONESTLY, ARE 'RELATIONSHIPS' MY FIRST PRIORITY ? HOW CAN I ENSURE THAT THEY ARE ? LOVE INVOLVES SACRIFICING MY EGO. AM I PREPARED FOR THAT ? |
| PSALM 50:15 "PRAY TO ME IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE, I will rescue you, and you will honor me." TROUBLE COMES IN EVERY ONE'S LIFE. WE ARE EXPECTED TO PRAY TO GOD ABOUT IT. THEN GOD PROMISES TO RESCUE US. GOD RESCUES US FOR A PURPOSE. HE WANTS US TO HONOR HIM BY BEING OBEDIENT AND FAITHFUL TO HIM. HE ALSO EXPECTS US TO HONOR HIM BY TELLING OTHERS ABOUT THE WONDERS HE HAS DONE IN OUR LIFE. THIS IS BECAUSE HE DESIRES ALL HIS CHILDREN TO COME CLOSE TO HIM THROUGH FAITH ! | tpRthr jpd jpahdk; | | flTspd; fsQ;rpaj;jpypUe;J jpdKk; ngWk; thf;FWjpfs; | | rp.vr;.];gH[d; | |

"BEFORE DESTRUCTION COMES ONE'S HEART IS PROUD. BEFORE HONOR COMES ONE'S HEART IS HUMBLE. TRUST GOD TO KEEP YOU ALWAYS HUMBLE AND SUCCESS IS SURE." PROVERBS 18:12 |
THINKING ABOUT MY PURPOSE DAY FIFTEEN WE ARE FORMED FOR GOD'S FAMILY " SEE HOW VERY MUCH OUR HEAVENLY FATHER LOVES US, FOR HE ALLOWS US TO BE CALLED HIS CHILDREN, AND WE REALLY ARE !" 1 JOHN 3:1 (NLT) I WAS FORMED FOR GOD'S FAMILY " HIS UNCHANGING PLAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO ADOPT US INTO HIS OWN FAMILY BY BRINGING US TO HIMSELF THROUGH JESUS CHRIST." EPHESIANS 1:5a (NLT) HOW CAN I START TREATING OTHER BELIEVERS LIKE MEMBERS OF MY OWN FAMILY ? FELLOW CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS ARE OUR OWN BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST. |
| WHEN GOD SEEMS SO DISTANT AT TIMES JOHN 16:22 "You are now very sad. But later I will see you, and you will be so happy that no one will be able to change the way you feel." "So for the present you are also in sorrow (in distress and depressed); but I will see you again and [then] your hearts will rejoice, and no one can take from you your joy (gladness, delight)." "When a woman gives birth, she has a hard time, there's no getting around it. But when the baby is born, there is joy in the birth. This new life in the world wipes out memory of the pain. The sadness you have right now is similar to that pain, but the coming joy is also similar. When I see you again, you'll be full of joy, and it will be a joy no one can rob from you. You'll no longer be so full of questions." WHEN WE LOVE GOD PASSIONATELY, WE FEEL THE PAIN OF SEPARATION SHARPLY. GOD SOMETIMES MAKES US FEEL HIS ABSENCE IN OUR LIFE IN ORDER TO DRAW US MORE CLOSER TO HIM. IT ONLY MEANS THAT GOD IS WATCHING OVER US MORE INTENSELY. WE FEEL GOD IS DISTANT, BUT GOD IS CLOSEST TO US DURING THOSE TIMES ! | tpRthr jpd jpahdk; | | flTspd; fsQ;rpaj;jpypUe;J jpdKk; ngWk; thf;FWjpfs; | | rp.vr;.];gH[d; | | | | | gpd;dhy; re;jpg;gjhf thf;FWjp | | | | | | | ehd; kWgbAk; cq;fisf; fhz;Ngd;. mg;nghOJ cq;fs; ,Ujak; re;Njh\g;gLk; (Nah.16:22). ,uz;lhk; Kiwahf Mz;ltH kWgbAk; fz;bg;ghf tUthH. mg;NghJ mtH ek;ikg; ghHj;Jk; ehk; mtiug; ghHj;Jk; mstpl Kbahj kfpo;r;rp milNthk;. me;j ehs; vg;nghOJ tUk; ?

Isaiah 8:17 (TEV) GOD IS REAL, NO MATTER HOW I FEEL.

WE USE BOTH OUR HEARTS AND HEADS. " LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH. " Mark 12:30 (NIV) WHICH IS MORE PLEASING TO GOD RIGHT NOW -- MY PUBLIC WORSHIP OR MY PRIVATE WORSHIP ? HOW CAN I MAKE MY WORSHIP MORE PLEASING TO GOD ? | |
