Mans Jar..God's well;-)

She was so happy at a point of time....being called the wife of the one whom she served once...She was no longer a member of the "servants fellowship"...but now she was in the top hierarchy.Ishmael was born.........
but things changed all of a sudden when Issac was born.

She was ill treated and despised ...........

Life is like this. We are forced to changes suddenly. We see men changing color, turning their backs to you and despising you.
BUT OUR GOD IS THE UNCHANGING ONE!!!!!!!.

One morning..Abraham sent hagar and her son Ishmael out..All was lost, they became wanderers in the desert. Lost in the middle of nowhere.....
Many a time we also face such a situation. We are left all alone, to face the heat in the desert with the thirst killing us and the betrayed love choking us.DO not forget the Lord is our shade by our right hand..BUT

.Abraham didnt forget to give her "some food and a skin of water "

..Man can only give you this much..Its always "SOME bread" "Some love" "some ... " some O God who Am i speaking to...Dont get discouraged when u get this "some" and from men

Little while after God Opened her eyes to see"WELL OF WATER"Opened for her..REMEMBER WHEN MAN'S PROVISION FAIL YOU AND WHEN U SOB ..THOSE TEARS ARE THE source FOR DIVINE RESoURCES TO OPEN FOR YOU AND SUSTAIN YOU
When Men's resources fail you divine resources sustain you ..

O And MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS ACCORDING TO HIS..ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES....And O My God"Now unto Him who is able to do EXCEEDINGLY AND ABUNDANTLY THAN WHAT WE ASK OR THINK..."The power of His word is powerful I cant go furtherIf u feel happy and encouraged noone is stopping you say a hallelujah !!;-)..Its always man's some and God's TOO MUCH~

His House;-)

surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my lifeand I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever and ever
Assurance is what we look for in an uncertain world..

we have uncertain days ahead of us.These days our shifts,work pressure sends up stress signals.We feel less addicted to His Word..We arrive at our own logical conclusions.
PSALMIST WAS ASSURED OF ONE THING..that applies to us too..
surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.Dont forget this day has elements of God's mercy and goodness behind you.

Dont forget...after imbibing this assurance DAvid tells"AND I SHALL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD FOREVER AND EVER"Assurance of this truth for a lifetime leads us to acknowledging Him for eternity.
House of the Lord..dont think it as a church building..His House..imagine God's house...Pillars of righteousnessFoundation of God's word..Echoing the angelic chant.HOLY HOLY Holy....not any secular one!!,Throne of truth,Garments of holiness,righteousness,peace and joy of the Holy Ghost,freshened atmosphere of His love..and much more..

DO U DWELL IN IT??

Time Is Up!!!!!

Sarah laughed when the the Lord said that next year this time youyou will have a child..She thought that the TIME FOR CONCEIVING A CHILD WAS OVER!!The Lord said"TIME IS UP"

Martha said to Jesus...."Its 4 days since he died..dont roll away the stone..thank you Lord atleast now you came!"In other words she said..Time is over for a miracle..CHRIST wept but He Said"TIME IS UP"as He shouted "Lazarus come out"

Many a time we give up..excuse is"Time is over"Gently these moments hear the still small voice of the mastertelling"TIME IS UP"

Child of God..Time is up.........Miracle is on the wayBelive and accept it..Unsaved family is going to be saved..New ways of His provision.TIME IS UP..IT IS NOT OVER

LIFT His Rod!!!!

Moses was in the wilderness.......He had a rod,that he used to graze the sheep with..This rod was used to defend the sheep,guide the sheep,but when he came to Mount Horeb...He saw the GREAT I AM..
God first asked Him..what was in His hand..He put it down in His presence.From then on it was called the Lord's Rod not Moses's Rod.Whatever we have when we offer it in God's feet..it becomes His not ours..Our lives when we worship..it becomes His..Not ours

Suddenly the amalekites came to attack the israelites at rephidim ..the enemy comes without a warning..Moses has no other go..He knew He had something which the enemy didnt have.

HE REMEMBERED THE LORD's ROD...the same rod that swallowed pharoah's evil snakes..the same rod when stretched the red sea parted...now u see Moses in the Hill with the rod of God in His hands lifted up..The circumstances were different...but the Rod of God was enough,His grace is enough dear.

CHILD OF GOD...Do have His word in your heart, a promise that was given in Holy Ground..in your mouth...Its enough to tackle the sitaution.

REMEMBER WHEN UR HANDS ARE DOWN THE ENEMY GAINS...ELSE ITS VICTORY FOR You and HIS PEOPLE>..Lets be people who have His Rod in our hands always lifted up.

PERCEPTION TO RECEPTION!@#

ELIJAH SAID TO Ahab".... there is the sound of a heavy rain." .

Ahab could not hear it..but the man of God could perceive..i thank God for all people of God who perceive things .

Perception is different from reception..many of us perceive things but seldom receive things..we think our healing is near,but time seems to be shooting by..many of us perceive a blessing but nothing seems to happen.

Elijah perceived that a heavy rain was coming and that made Him go to carmel...he didnt tell that "I am tired Lord..I brought fire from heaven..killed many baal prophets..Now I need some good food"

No he didnt do that, Perception of things should lead us to our knees...Elijah went and knelt in carmel..prayed persistently till He heard His servant saying,"

A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea." That was the time when Elijah stood up ....

Christ perceived that Lazarus was goin to be alive..but Lazarus was alive only afteChrist prayed to the father..

BETWEEN PERCEPTION AND RECEPTION THERE IS A TIME OF INTENSE PRAYER....Do you perceive a blessing near by..better get on your knees and receive it..Do you perceive Healing..pray and receive, a job..kneel down and dont get up till u receive!

May God help us to receive those we have perceived!!

He took Him OUTSIDE~~

Many a time we are inside our own world...our own thoughts...our doubts

Abram was called by God..The calling was so powerful that made Him forget His home,occupation.I thank God for all who are called BY HIM..called unto His eternal purpose...Alrite..Years passed by..the promise given by God was not fulfilled

and the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision: "Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, [a] your very great rewardChild of God..HE IS OUR REWARD...and our shield..let me go further..Abram asked a question "O Sovereign LORD, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit [c] my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?" 3 And Abram said, "You have given me no children; so a servant in my household will be my heir."
He took him outside and said, "Look up at the heavens and count the stars—if indeed you can count them." Then he said to him, "So shall your offspring be."
6 Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness
ONLY IF GOD BRINGS US OUTSIDE We will believe..Only if God brings Lazarus OUTSIDE the tomb,His glory will be revealed.

Child of God..He asks us to come oUTSIDE>>.outside our doubts..outside our fears..outside OUR DISEASES,To a world of His promises,peace..power..faith.MAY HE BRING YOU OUTSIDE ...and then you will believe and it will be counted as RIGHTEOUSNESS.
O GOD BRING US OUTSIDE!!!!!

Blessings to the Blessed Lord!!!!

Jacob ran away from His Home,reason His dad blessed Him.Strange isnt it??Immediately after a blessing you run away from home fearing your own brother...Life seeming so insecure moments after Getting blessed.Jacob ran for his life..He was all alone now.Blessings led Jacob to face loneliness,fear,insecurity and what else.

He came to a place called LUZ.Bcoz the sun had set,He found no other way,rather than to take a stone from that place and make it as a pillow.Stone Pillow!!That Night..in midst of all those ,his inward eyes were opned...He saw Heavens opened and heard the voice of the God of His fathers.CHILD OF GOD this is what blessings will lead you to...This is the ultimate destination.
Life will not end in loneliness and fear,life will not end the same way we are in...The ultimate destination where blessings will take you to is to the presence of the Almighty....
There you receive promises from god..there you find purpose for your life..there you find peace in midst of storms...The stone Pillow you will turn it to be a pillar..
Blessings shud lead you to the blessed....No where else!!One question..where have your jobs,money,health...salvation..led you to...
May The blessings we have lead us to the blessed Lord.

Our Good God

-----------Daniel was in the lion's den..put by jealous people.
Huge gallows were being built for Mordecai by Haman.
Joseph was in the pit and prison for no reason.
Christ was put to great shame ...that too for no reason...

The Evil devil puts you in different places to Kill you,to make an end to your hopes n future,but we have a good God who knows what to do with His anointed in those times.

The devil's plans stop with the man of God in the Den,but God goes beyond that to send an angel to shut the mouth of the LION.The evil devil thought and laughed seeing the gallows for mordecai,but the Good God had an esther in the palace.
Enemy thought Joseph is over with the prison,but God knew it was just a beginning,as He gave Joseph divine gift to interpret vision.Cross was not the end of Christ...there was a third day of God's power.

Child of God.to put it short..We have a good God who knows what to do wherever you are!!!!!

MAKE A COMEBACK!!!!

For 12 years this lady had a bad bleeding disease,diagonized by many famous physicians...her life became very miserable...one moment she made a comeback.with all her pain and sorrow,she touched the helm of the Master's garment..She made a comeback...

A thief all his life..have done only wrong,made lives of many miserable...one look at the master's bleeding face changed Him.He made a comeback by making an honest confession..

Mary MagDALENE,Elijah,david..all had their moments of a comeback.Are you looking for a comeback??

Make a gentle touch,an honest confession ,shed tears of repentance.MAKE A COMEBACK

Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.

Loveliness in Loneliness;-)

Loneliness..that could be what you are facing right now.. couldn't it?

God didnt want man to be lonely and doesn't want. That was the first issue what God dealt with regard to man.He created a partner for Adam in Eve. Dont misunderstand - this is not a marriage sermon!!;-).

God orchestrates these paths of loneliness for us to enjoy His loveliness..

Yes, it was when Hagar was driven off from home that she met the Lord of Abraham who would make springs in the dry land..I am talking to someone...yes..you night be thinking you are all alone..but understand something lovely is somewhere near.

Only when he slept taking a stone as his pillow at a place called LUZ(later named by him as Bethel) did jacob realize ,who the God of his fathers was.And there he saw a ladder placed between heaven and earth and angels ascending and descending. That place was his turning point.

Only when he came all alone to the mountain of God and as he heard the VOICE from the burning bush which was not consumed, did Moses know who the God of Hebrews was. David, Daniel, Jonah...and even Christ when He was in this world had to be lonely in the wilderness to be filled by the Holy Ghost.

Are u dejected? Lonely? Who knows. You might see a spring in the wilderness; see a ladder in the place of uneasiness; or even a burning bush...

Child of God, open ur eyes. As you tread paths of loneliness dont forget to see that LOVELINESS OF YOUR GOD who promised"I will never leave you nor forsake You""I will be with you till the end of the age""

No never aloneNo never aloneHe promised never to leave me never to leave me alone"

DeeplY Moved

Problems are common to all....whoever we are..whatever be our postion spiritual or physical.The House of Bethany was not exempted from that,though they were the family our dear Lord loved so much.They had to face difficulties like that Sidonian woman...like that widow at nain.

But our response to problems vary depending on pur relatioship with Him.see what the Bethany sisters told
So the sisters sent word to Jesus, "Lord, the one you love is sick." 7 words..nothing more..nothing less..How are we presenting our requests to Him..Do we express our relationship to Him as we tell Him our needs.."the one whom you LOVE"..

We read then Christ didnt come immediately,but if the message reaches Him,trust Him..He will COME..No doubts..

Jesus came to the village..we read after four days.but what toched me this time was,the way mary responded."When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said,"
See how Christ Responded" he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled."

When u come out of that house of weeping,sorrows,loses to where Christ is and worship Him,adore him,pour out your love to HimJesus will be deeply moved...deeply moved..When He is deeply moved,death cannot hold lazarus,when He is deeply moved,situations will not be the same.

Question is "Whether He will be deeply moved seeing our attitudes,words,life and worship"??

amen
You know that,I love you,You know that,I want to know you so much more,More than I have beforeThese words are,From my heart,These words are,Not made up,I will live for you,I am devoted to you,
Pre-Chorus:
King of MajestyI have one desireJust to be with you my Lord,
Just to be with you my Lord,
Chorus:Jesus you are the Saviour of my soulAnd forever and ever I'll give my praises to you,Jesus you are the Saviour of my soulAnd forever and ever I'll give my praises to you,Bridge:Jesus you are the Saviour of my soul(echo)And forever and ever I'll give my praises to you(echo)

walking to Him

WalkinG TO Him-------------------------------------

Peter and the disciples were so worn off because of the winds that were againstthem..The boat was beaten by the waters..Waters were rising and as this was journey compelledby the master they must have been more perplexed..It was the fourth watch of the night ..Noone will be there to help them.Child of God..Winds may be against you but when He is on your side..we shud not be afraid..Nothing can b against you.Yes If God is for us who can be against us..??God is on my side..what can man do to me??

Now in that fearful night ..abt the fourth watch..The initiator of this journey came to them,walking on those waters.Listen,if the Lord initiates something He is faithful to complete,its His Duty..But always let the Lord initiate.The disciples now could not recognize Him..They thought "it was a ghost"..When the Master draws closer always we tend to doubt.We dont doubt our friend,we dont doubt the presence of our relative but when he draws near..we put it as our emotions, we always doubt His presence..If it is Him.He will first say"DO NOT FEAR"...Fear has no room in His powerful presence..Suddenly the unpredictable Peter experienced faith springing up from His fearful soul..O God..This is what His presence does..Fear makes way to faith..right now i feel it aropund me and i know you will expereince the same now..Let fears go in Christ's name..

Peter said"Lord if it is you.."ask me to come to you"This is what i was touched..If we saw Christ that time..our question would have been.."If it is you,why did you let this happen??"Why did you leave us all alone??Why did you come so late..an it goes on..But peter said"Lord I want to walk through this troubled waters and reach you"I want to walk..If you are facing a similar situation like this,why dont you ask the Lord now to empower you to walk through those troubles to reach Him and Him alone...??

Our dwelling Place

Psalm 90
1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.

As I write these lines..the entire world is in a state of shock after a tragic weekend in which many lives being wiped off from the face of the earth due to an earthquake in Pakistan and parts of kasmir....The shelters we think that are secure becoming the cause of our end!!The resources which we feel permanent failing us..
The beauty that we cherish..the strength we have all becoming useless within just seconds.

The verse above says about a dwelling place that has been throughout all generations..right from the beginning and those who find shelter under it are safe.The resources in this dwelling place are just wonderful..The water we drink in this shelter will cause us to thirst no more.The food we eat from this shelter causes us to hunger no more...The love we get from this dwelling place has no comparisons,
As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you;

The strength we find in this shelter...is just powerful that we sour with wings as eagles..
The safety we have in this just see..

If you make the Most High your dwelling— even the LORD, who is my refuge-
10 then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent.

DONT RUN BEHIND THE SHELTERS THAT ARE TEMPERORY AND ARE WORTHLESS and ARE NOT SECURE....FIND SHELTER THIS WEEK AND HENCE FORTH IN THE LORD WHO HAS BEEN OUR DWELLING PLACE THROUGHOUT ALL GENERATIONS...

Blessed Be His glorious name

Have a wonderful week ahead

Still Beyond...till the Still small Voice!!

ELijah...didnt have a cellphone..otherwise jezebel would have messaged the warning,by the CellPhone!!but instead she sent a messenger to threaten a person who proved to all Isarelites that Jehovah Is God by bringing fire from heaven.I imagine the foolishness of Jezebel..She didnt kill Elijah by the messenger..!!

Let me place a truth..The wicked devil cant touch you till permitted by your creator...Psalm 91..O his power is moving as you read" He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty."...

Her warning was"May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them."
Her warning to Elijah was not concerned abt the present,but abt ELijah's tomorrow..Dont we have a lesson here..Devil always targets our tomorrows.The wicked one whispers doubts,threatenings in our minds by telling us abt our uncertain tomorrows.

Child oF God..listen to what our Lord says"Do Not worry abt tomorrow.."He doesnt want us to get worried..because He holds our tomorrows,not the Wicked devil.Live one day at a time..but like how we feel always...

ELijah was dicouraged by the wicked one's message.He came till Beersheba.and rested under a broom tree...The Lord didnt leave Him..He sent His angel to minister to Him..He was given Heavenly provision.He came still beyond with that strength to the mount of God..Many a time we are satisfied by the provision of the angel..say a hallelujah and walk back home.Elijah dint do that..he reached Horeb,the mountain of the Lord..Heavenly provision is given for you to go to the mountain of God...Elijah went to a cave in the mountain.

We then see..He was faced by the power of God..Wind,earthquake and fire came..He didnt run home seeing the power of God..he came still beyond that to hear a still small voice..That voice changed ELijah's world..empowered Elijah with a new mission...Dearest,we have many stories to tell of His provision..but have we walked with that to the Mountain of God??We have stories to tell about the Fire,earthquake and wind we saw..yes His power..but how much do we wait and come again to that moment when the STILL SMALL VOICE of God deals with us.
O that voice will change us..Uncertain tomorrows will be certain by His power and purpose..No wicked devil can do anythinG!!Get assured Now..COME STILL BEYOND YOUR SITUATION.yes these sacred moments as u read this..walk to the mountain of God..Take time to hear the still small voice!!COME...COME OUT TO HEAR THE STILL SMALL VOICE!!Be blessed in His name,be healed..be delivered,be empowered NOW!!!

WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Simon and His friends worked hard..labored all the night to get something(atleast some fish!!) in their nets.Nothing happened..Simon was an expert in the sea..but that night He was frustrated.We also feel like this many a time,dry,void..lack of purpose..Suddenly everything seems to go wrong,and that toounexpectedly..

Moses was brought up as the prince of Egypt,where was the better place to start a revolution.He had man power,people in egypt respected their Prince..but deep inside He wanted to release His people,the israelitesfrom bondage...He tried His best.Killed an egyptian..but it was a big flop!!!He ran for His life to MIDIAN....We also feel many a time like this..we try to do something for Others..but we land up in a bigger trouBle
BUT THEIR LIVES DIDNT continue to be the SAMe..THEY WERE NOT FAILURES ALL THE TIME.
The next morning Christ was there in that empty boat of SIMON.If there is a night of failure,dont forget there is a morning of VICTORY AND JOY WITH CHRIST!!
Moses met the GREAT I AM..When His rod became the Lord's rod..HE went straight back to Pharoah..that old palace where He thoughtHe was a failure.

Through this blog I want to remind by the authority of His word...HIS PRESENCE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE IN OUR FAILURES,IN OUR DYING PLACES..IN OUR DARK VALLEYS,DEEP OCEANS..
Exodus 33:16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?"
Psalms 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, [a] I will fear no evil, for you are with me
Let our prayer be
Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
REMEMBER the words of ChrisT

JOHN 15:5 apart from me you can do nothing.
Matthew 28:20And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

HIS PRESENCE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

The Name that matters the MOST

He was as usual looking at each and everyone going to the temple.Eyes fixed on their eyes and hands.We also have seen this sight..people who look into our eyes and hands..sply in front of places of worship.

This temple's gate was called beautiful,but outside were sights like this so bad.The Bible says in Acts 3,that He was laid every day there,maybe by His friends or relatives.Friends or relations couldnt take him beyond that...dear,let me impress upon you a truth.Friends,your relations and all can take you only to an exent..not beyond that.Limitations in loving you,in helping you...but then its your life.You have to live it out,facing loneliness,depression,like this lame man.This poor man's acquintances laid him outside the templeto BEG in that hot sun,crying out to people for alms..You define this friendship.!!!!
Alrite..that time 2 men of God,Peter and John were coming to that Temple during the "HOUR OF PRAYER".If something can happen seriously to lives ..its during the hour of prayer...it happens to anyone..anyone who prays,who is prayed for..Hour of TV watching,hour of chatting..hour of vain talks..nothing can happen during that..but during HOUR OF PRAYER many things happen!!They saw this man who asked them also for alms.. Peter said"Look at us!" So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk."

O God..this man must have been puzzled..it was all of a sudden and then He sees peter's hand stretched out to Him.he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.

There was something in Peter more powerful,costlier..dearer to Him than Silver and Gold.It was the name of Jesus.He gave it to the lame man...ONLY THAT NAME takes us to the temple courts to enjoy His presence..Only that name can change us.Only that name can give strength to our weak cells.Your friends restrict you..but this name causes you to expand your territory,Your diseases restrict you,but This name HEALS YOU.
.If you do not know abt that name..let it be known to you through this thought.Take that name JESUS..Let it lift us up from our situation and take us into His courts so that we may praise Him.Be healed,be touched..be empowered in His name..Yes this is the name that matters the MOST!!

Lessons from the NightComer

Listen what the scriptures say abt this person..his name is Nicodemus.1Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him."

Now give ur ear..a member of an entire community and a man of the religious council.A Man who tithed correctly..who fasted 3 times a week,a master of the law!!It looks like some of us..a person who prays everyday,who does no evil,respected by societyand also a senior in the church...He came to JESUS.He had some questions.Many of us because of questions go back from Him..Friend you might have some questions the right person to ask those is Christ...Well this man came at night to Jesus..Our night shud not be too dark that we miss out the Light.We shud have sight and take the right decision to come to the light.Are you gropping in the dark,darkness of questions,of diseases,of burdens??Open ur eyes child of God..Come to the light.the light of answers..light of healing that Christ provides.

Another thing that struck me is..Nicodemus didnt even ask a question..he just said a fact first
Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." and also 2 other questions' in this big coversation
"How can a man be born when he is old?" 9"How can this be?" Totally 3 times He speaks..rest all are the Lord's words...When we come to His presence something similar shud happenIts He who takes Over..He speaks and we hear the most..He does and we experience it..
Yes when we draw closer to Him..Let Him do things the most..Let Him be the Lord.We see Nicodemus last at the foot of the cross.What a glorious experience.Take a decision...to be still and know that HE IS GOD.

Just as I am, without one plea,
but that thy blood was shed for me,
and that thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, though tossed aboutwith many a conflict,
many a doubt;fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Do NoT PasS me By...

Abraham...The call had some package of promises with it.He boldly obeyed that call without looking at the promise but the one who gave the promise..Dont start ur journey seeing the promise,but start seeing the One who gives you the promise..

...He started but now He was in the wilderness the Bible records GEN 18 "At the heat of the day"..when noone dare to walk on that HOT desert.Abraham lifted His head...O dear child...You may think..that the promise package is a feeling coz nothing has happened and its noontime already..Noone will dare to walk ..

But LIFT up your heads....You will see the Lord walking in that Heat outside....He comes thru that Hot sand..that prevents you from going outside...Your feet may burn,but His wont...and He is faithful to carry you...YES HE WALKS AND COMES TO YOU...amidst the doubts and troubles you face..HE walked among those troubled waters where His disciples were afraid,He walked with the 3 hebrews in the fire
He is not the God who comes in a cloud to you while u suffer on earth...He comes to you however you are wherevr you are..
...for he himself has suffered,being tempted.He is able to aid those who are tempted...He walks where noone dares to walk....that too for US..
1 But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
3 For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush [a] and Seba in your stead.
4 Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life.


And fall at the feet of God..and cry"DO NOT PASS ME BY"

Your age must have passed you...ur stage for reception of promises must have passed ,That doesnt matter..
But it matters when Christ passes by..Dont leave Him..Jacob,Jabez,Abraham.........blind Barthimaues all did not allow the Lord to pass by..without dealing with them...

Every time in a church or in a fellowship..in the house of God...in ur troubles..in your good times..HE PASSES BY YOU..but let our prayer be
"SAVIOR SAVIOR,hear my humble cry
while on others thou art calling
Do not pass me By"

IT IS FINISHED!!

Moses must have thought, as I shared before, that His mission of delivering the people is Over.We also love to do something for God,but circumstances keep us from doing that and we think its all over.Moses thought which was the better place other than the PALACE to do His work,but this YAHWEH God dint allow that.What use is if i stay in the wilderness??

Thats the time when God takes over.Elijah thought the the same when he heard the warnings of Jezebel...but theLord took over then..what can Moses do in His in laws house???in Midian??
But the great sight drew Him closer to His purpose.

But by this time frustration had crept in..he could only tell of His inabalities...We also do that..we always degrade that deeper mision and vision in our hearts..We always tell abt inabilities to GOD but We write a lot of our abilities for the world to use us(if there is a doubt see ur resume!!)

..but when it comes to divine service,the devil has blinded us...

The Lord later made Him understand that DELIVERANCE came to Isarelites not because of the abilities,orthe Rod of Moses or the 40lakh manpower He had,but it was by the Blood of THE LAMB that was shed during the passover night!!

Everything was over,when the lamb was sacrificed,we just need to apply that in our lives!!!Everything was over,when Christ the LAMB OF GOD was sacrificed!!!U just need to apply that in ur ministry,encourage your friends to apply that..ur families...!!!!REvival will begin..

THE WORK FOR DELIVERANCE AND REVIVAL IS OVER..with CHRIST HANGING NAKEDLY ON THE CROSS AND RISING UP VICTORIOUSLY!!

WOULD YOU DO SERVICE FOR JESUS YOUR KING

THERE's power in the blood,power in the blood

Would you Live Daily His praises to SING

There's wonderful power in the blood

There is power,power,wonderworking power in the Blood of the LAMBThere is power,power,wonderworking powerin the precious blood of the LAMB

(THE LORD TAUGHT ME THIS AS I WAS BURDENED ON HOW TO DO ZPT...)

The Great Sight!!

Moses thought that His work with regard to the deliverance of His brethren was over.He had revolutuion in is blood,He was a child kept by God..grown by the LORD.Friend,if you are reading this..let me tell you...all these days,it is the LORD who kept you by His power.THE Nile river was so deep...but the LOVE AND POWER OF GOD WAS DEEPER.

The sights in the palace he grew up was great...Egyptian architecture was awesome..but the sight that he was alarmed by was the GREAT SIGHT he saw as He came to the Mount of God.
The bush was burning ,but it was not consumed..He turned aside to see this great Sight.

In your weakness,if you glorify God...In your failures,you still trustGod..In your diseases and trials you still cling on to HIM..No sight is greater than this..

DANIEL UNMOVABLE IN front of the lions,the 3 hebrews in the burning fire....Paul and Silas singing in the prison...Graham Staines and children in the fire...YOU and me clinging to God in the darkest of nights..No sight is powerful than this...
its all because
of that sight we saw where the son of God silent...not even opening His mouth..BUT Submitting Himself to be crushed

Have you seen this great sight..??
