In these last day, we need to be all the more watchful and strong, knowing that the war we face is not with flesh and blood, Eph 6 :11,12, and so we need to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Prov 24:10 says “if you faint in the day of adversity your strength is small.” Our whole Christian walk is by faith( Hab 2:4), and we come out of weakness into strength only by faith.(Heb 11:34)
1. BE STRONG IN THE LORD
Eph 6:10-( Ampli Bible) be empowered through your union with Him, draw your strength from Him(that strength which His boundless might provide) By faith abide in the Vine, for without Him we can do nothing..John 15:1-8. Daily mediate on Isaiah 40:27-31..Knowing the God who indwells you - verse 28..knowing your God makes you strong- Dan 11:32..If you everyday wait in His presence with faith, He will empower us to soar up like an eagle..so that you can run and not be weary, and walk and not faint or become tired!
2. BE STRONG IN THE GRACE THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS – II Tim 2:1.
Our whole Christian life - its by His grace we were saved and then serving God, giving to God, and living sincere godly lives also by His grace. II Corin 12:9,10 mediate on these verses and believe that His grace and His strength is sufficient for you. James 4:6..He gives grace to the humble..
3. BE STRONG BY THE WORD OF GOD ALWAYS ABIDING IN YOU.
I John 2:14. Man lives by the word, Matt 4:4, and the Word is lamp to our feet, and a light to our path Ps 119:105, when we abide in Him,and His Word abides in us, our prayers will be answered, John 15:7, and the Word perfects us II Tim 3:16,17, and His word is medicine to all our flesh Prov 4:20-22. We need to grow strong in the word, I Peter 2:1-3, and become doers of the Word and not just hearers James 1:18-25. Sword of the Spirit, in our spiritual war Eph 6:10-18. Word in heart will keep us from sinning Ps 119:9-11, Ps 37:31. Memorise scripture, then only we can use it as Jesus did and say “It is written” in our spiritual wars..Deut 11:8- Keep all commandments which I command you today that you may be STRONG and go in and possess the land.
4. BE STRONG IN THE FULNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN YOU.
Eph 3:16; Col 3:11; Luke 24:49. Inner man needs to be strengthened day by day. Have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed Acts 19:2, Luke 11:13. Holy Spirit in us, strengthens our prayer life, and gives understanding of the Word and give us the fruit of the spirit and gifts of the Spirit, and also power and boldness to be witnesses. Zech 4: 6,7; Romans 8: 26,27.
5. BE STRONG IN CONSISTANT PRAYER LIFE. I Thess 5:17, Romans 12:12.
Before Acts ch 2, how was the prayer life of the apostles? Mark 1:35-37; Matt 26: 37-46, Luke 22: 46 “Rise and pray” is what Jesus had to tell them.. how is your personal prayer life today?
Watch and pray – Luke 21: 34- 36
Pray without fainting- Luke 18:1-8
The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much- James 5:16
Prayer of faith – James 5: 15.
All night in prayer- Luke 6:12.
In everything by prayer let your request be made known - Phil 4:6,7.
Jere 33:3 -Call to ME, and I will answer you, and show you great and might things which you donot know.
Mediate on all the characters in the Bible and others in our times, who were used of God to accomplish great things, and they will all be men and women of prayer. The Korean church revival is the outcome of hours and nights of prayer.
In Daniel 6:10 we read about the prayer life of Daniel, who was then a Governor!! What can God testify today about the consistency of our prayer life?
Let us be watchful and strengthen ourselves in these 5 areas, and know that is it is not with our strength, but we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, and let us reckon ourselves dead, and let the life of Christ be manifest in all these areas. Gal. 2:20, Romans 13:14, Romans 6:11.
Believe who you are IN CHRIST, and know that in Christ we are victors. II Corin 2:14.
God bless you and keep you.

KNOW YOUR GOD AND BE STRONG
Daniel, who had seen the fiery trials and been in the lion’s den, says in Dan 11:32 the people who KNOW their God shall be STRONG and carry out exploits. Paul who went through much tribulation says “that I may know Him” Phil 3:10, and “I know whom I have believed” II Tim 1:12. To know your God you have to spend time with His Word. God’s character will remain the same, whatever we may go through.
Once when Morris Cerullo, was going through a dark phase of his life, the Lord spoke to him. “Morris, do not concentrate on the greatness of your problem, but concentrate on the GREATNESS and ABILITY of your God and God will lead you on to victory one step at a time”

THE LAMP OF THE BODY IS THE EYE
The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness how great is that darkness. Matt.6:22, 23.
SEEING THROUGH HEAVEN’S EYES – from the book “God’s Outrageous Claims”..by Lee Strobel.
I periodically need to remind myself of the VALUE that God places on other human beings, even when I don’t know the other person or when he or she is very different from me. But to be honest, that’s not natural for me to do.
Every once in a while though I get a reminder, like reading about an incident that occurred in North Carolina in 1995. Ten year old Lawrence Shields was picking through a bucket of debris in a gemstone mine when a rock piqued his interest.”I just liked the shape of it” he said.
When he knocked off the dirt and grit that were clinging to it, and as he rubbed it on his shirt to polish it up, he saw that this was much more than just a rock. It turned out to be a SAPPHIRE. And not just any sapphire – 1,061 carat sapphire.
Here’s the point: when we look at other people, we tend to focus on the outside, which is soiled by sin. We see the rebellion or failure, the bizarre lifestyle or proud attitude, and often overlook the real value that’s on the inside – where each one of us is a gem of incalculable worth, CREATED in the IMAGE OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD. We as individuals, are so valued and loved, that God was willing to pay the infinite price of His Son’s death to clean away our sin and restore us to Himself.
So when you look at someone whose life has been thoroughly corrupted by sin, can you say to yourself, “Their life situation may be AWEFUL, but the image of God within them is AWESOME”… Can you look at the people you may have devalued because they’re different from you or poorer than you or less educated than you, and imagine the ultimate value that God attaches to them despite their circumstances?
When we see people from God’s perspective, all of a sudden we have a new inspiration to treat them with the same dignity, respect, and honor that we desire for ourselves. But apart from that divinely altered perception, I don’t have a chance of being obedient to Christ’s command that I love others as myself. It’s simply not going to happen. We need to see each other as having untold value in the eyes of Jesus.
To love one’s enemy does not mean to love the mire in which the pearl lies, but to love the pearl that lies in the mire”, since we are all made in the image and likeness of God Himself. Gen 1: 26,27.
---------------
I was personally very touched by the above article, and am deliberately trying to see everyone, as made in the image and likeness of God Himself, especially folks who have hurt us or despised us.. and I am thanking God for everyone, for whom Christ has paid the price of his Blood to redeem and reconcile us all back to God, and decided to forgive them all and love them to the end, as Christ also has loved us and shed abroad His love in us..
May the Lord speak to you all also through this article.

SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL ARISE WITH HEALING IN HIS WINGS
Every Word of God is settled forever, and Malachi 4:2,3 is the promise we are going to study. We can inherit all the promises of God by our faith and patience.Heb. 6:11-15. First learn to FEAR the Name above all Names, and know that there is no other Name given for our salvation, healing, and deliverance and victory. Acts 4:10-12. Normally when we speak of healing, we think of healing of diseases and sickness., but in the Bible we see others areas where we need healing.
1. HEALING OF BACKSLIDING
Hosea 14:4; Jere 3:22. Once having tasted the love of God, and His salvation, one can relapse into the old sinful ways, or behaviour..backsliding in a believer starts with small errors, then secret faults, then presumptious sins and then finally great transgressions(Ps 19:12,13) When we read in Revelations, the letters to churches, except to 2 churches the Lord warns them and urges them to repent.Rev 2:2-5, they are commended for all their works etc..but they have left their first love. Rev 3;15,16 speaks of lukewarmness of their walk. We know that Jesus Christ is coming back again, so today, search your own heart to see if there are any wicked ways in us Ps. 139:23,24. Any secret sins, unforgiveness, bitterness, unbelief, disobedience, murmuring, unthankfulness etc..Donot cover your sin Prov 28:13, confess and forsake them. I John 1:7-9. RETURN to the Lord with all your heart ,and be consistant in your daily personal walk with the Lord. Be watchful in your prayer life, study of the word, and decide to become a doer of the word. Keep your heart with all diligence, and let Christ live in your heart by faith, Eph 3:17, Gal 2:20, and yield your body as the temple of God,and let His word dwell in your heart. Acts 2:37,38..Repent, be baptized and be filled with His Spirit. Make a decision to RETURN TO THE LORD with all your heart and enjoy the blessings given in Hosea 6:1-3.
2. HEALING OF ALL SICKNESS AND DISEASE, AND OPPRESSION BY THE DEVIL
Ps 103:3, Acts 10:38. The message of the cross is power for us who are saved I Corin 1:18..Is 53:4-6, and I Peter 2:24, Matt. 8:17. Its by faith and patience, we can inherit all promises. Heb 6:11-15., Romans 4:17-21. The enemies to our faith is fear, doubt, unbelief,and lack of knowledge. Believe what happened on the cross,and believe that there is healing by His stripes. Proverbs 4:20-24, Prov 18:20,21. When Jesus was on earth, He went about healing every sickness and disease, and signs following believers Mark 16:17,18; James 5:14-16. Read Exo 15;26, He promises that He is the Lord who heals us, provided we too are diligent about hearing and obeying His word.
3. HEALING OF BROKEN HEART AND WOUNDS
Ps 147: 3, Jere 30: 17. Many of us have gone through very rough paths and are wounded and broken inside, though we donot show it on the outside. Take courage, that there is healing for you. First know that the Lord uses broken people as in II Corin 1:3-5. The trials we go through is only to build our character Romans 8:28,29, and all of us have trials I Corin 10:13, and we have a great High Priest who understands all our pain, and not only intercedes for us, but also ants to help us.. Heb 4:14-16, Heb 2:14-18, God has a race for each one of us Heb 12:1-3, and Ps 66:10-12. God sends His word to comfort us and heal us Ps 107:20. In my life a few years ago, I was very hurt and depressed, and God used 6 verses with the word I HAVE and healed me. Ever since I repeat these 6 verses to myself everytime I feel hurt and overcome the attack
(a) Jere 31:3- I have loved you with an everlasting love.(b) Is 43:1,2- I have redeemed you, I have called you by name, you are mine.(c) Is. 49:15,16- See, I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands.(d) John 16:33 - These things have I spoken unto you, that in Me you may have peace.In the world you will have tribulation;but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.(e) Luke 22:31,32 Simon, Simon,( insert your name) indeed Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail;when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.(f) John 15:16 You did not choose Me, but I have chosen you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit Believe Job 5:17,18 Behold happy is the man whom God corrects;therefore donot despise the chastening of the Almighty. For He bruises but He binds up, He wounds, but His hands make whole.
Psalms 119:92- unless your law(word) had been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction. Accept God’s comfort and healing through his word and Holy Spirit, and God will use you to comfort others.
4. HEALING OF OUR LAND
II Chronicles 7:14. study Joshua ch. 1 God has placed us in different lands to possess the land. Note the steps mentioned in II Chron. 7:14 , if we want to see the healing of our land- humble ourselves, pray, seek God’s face, and turn from our wicked ways. THEN..God will hear , will forgive our sin and HEAL OUR LAND..
So may the Lord help us to enjoy these healings that God has for us as He is the SUN of RIGHTEOUSNESS..with healing in His wings Mal 4:2,3.
PROMISE- JERE 33:6- Behold. I will bring it health and healing, I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.
God bless you and keep you..

THE CROSS OF CHRIST & THE DIVINE EXCHANGES
THE CROSS OF CHRIST
The Apostle Paul has written in Heb 10:14 - For by one offering He has perfected forever them that are sanctified ..For us to live victoriously it is very important that we should know what Jesus Christ accomlished by offering Himself to die on the cross, and appropriate the victories of the cross for ourselves and for our family daily by faith.
1. Meditate on the love of God and of Jesus Christ for you even from the foundation of the world, and be thankful to him for His love which passeth all understanding.Rom 5:6-8; John 3:16; John 15:13; Jere 31:3; Eph 1:1-9.
2.Mediate everyday on the divine exchanges that took place when Christ died on the cross and confess this with your mouth and thank Him for it. Is. 53; Prov 18:20,21, Joshua 1:8.
The Divine Exchanges
1.Jesus was made sin with our sinfulness - that we might be made righteous with His righteousness II Corin 5:21.
2.Jesus was punished - that we might be forgiven Is 53:5; Eph 1:7.
3.Jesus bore all our sickness weakness, and pain and wounded for us - that we might be healed by His stripes Matt 8:17; Is 53:4,5; I Pet 2:24.
4.Jesus died our death - that we might recieve His life Heb 2:9; Heb 2:14-18; I John 5:11-13.
5.Jesus bore our sorrows - that we might recieve His joy Is 53:4; John 16:20-24.
6.Jesus endured our poverty - that we might share in His riches and abundance -II Corin 9:8; John 10:10.
7. Jesus bore our shame -that we might share in His glory -Heb 12:2; Heb 2:10.
8.Jesus bore our rejection - that we might have acceptance with the Father Is 53:3; Matt 27:46,50.
9.Jesus was made a curse - that we might enter into the blessings of Abraham and the blessings of the Holy Spirit by faith Gal 3:13,14;Deut 23:5; Deut 28:1-14.
10 Our old man or our old sinful nature was crucified with Him.Gal 2:20; Gal 5:24; Rom 13:14; Rom 6:6-8.
11.Jesus Christ who is God humbled Himself in obedience to the death of the cross -that we might be given by God that highly exalted Name which is above every name -JESUS CHRIST- Phil 2:9-11. Acts 4:10-12.
Jesus Christ was manifested to destroy the works of the devil, and has totally triumphed Satan by His death and resurrection.I John 3:8; Col 2:13-15; Heb 2:14-18.
There is power in the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST - Lev 17:11; I John 1:7; Eph 1:11-18; Col 1:19,20; Heb 10:19-22; Heb 13:20,21; Rev 12:11.
Let the cross of Christ, His death, resurrection and the divine exchanges become the centre of your lives and glory in the cross of Christ everyday.
God bless you ..

4 SIMPLE COMMANDS FOR VICTORIOUS LIVING
Every body likes to be sussessful and victorious.The secret for “success” is mentioned in Josh 1:8..and we need to the follow this principle with the 4 simple commands I am sharing today. Nothing is automatic,we have to do our part and God will do His..
COME TO ME – all you who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Matt 11:28. When in any need , who do we first think about?..do we run to the phone or to the Throne? In the Bible people with different needs both rich and poor, came to Him, and when they sincerely sought Him, He always helped them. But for us to come to Him confidently, we need to KNOW about Him, and His abilities, his character etc. etc..The only way to get to know Him personally, you need to read your Bible..His Name is the Most powerful Name JESUS..and All power is given to Him both in heaven and earth, and His love is so great that He gave Himself for us.Have you accepted Him as your personal Lord and Saviour? Know Him as you Shepherd Ps 23, and also Ps 46:1 says He is your refuge, strength and a VERY PRESENT HELP in trouble..Donot stop with just taking Him as your Saviour, but also be baptised and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit Acts 2:37,38,39. Read the Bible regularly, and the word will be a lamp to your feet and light to your path.
LOOK TO ME –and be saved, all you ends of the earth. Is 45:22. Salvation and healing and deliverance for us is only in Jesus. Numb 21:4-9.Also read John 3:14. Jesus Christ was lifted up on the cross, and everyone who is bitten by the devil, who only comes to steal, kill and destroy, when they look at Jesus ,and understand what He did for us, and the divine exchanges that He gave us by that Blood covenant, we believe and accept this, we will surely be delivered for the sin, sickness and curses and poverty. Make the cross and His resurrection the centre of your life, for a victorious life..and get to know about the power of the Blood of Jesus Christ to have an overcoming life. Rev 12:11, Heb 13:20,21..
CALL TO ME – and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. Jere 33:3. Our God is alive, and He hears our prayers Ps 65:2. Matt 7:7. Be sure that God can do the impossible for you, and nothing is too hard for Him.Jere 32:27. Doubt is a hinderance, and so always find the right promises and claim them in prayer.Your heart needs to be free from bitterness and unforgiveness, and with faith pray with thanksgiving , that He is a prayer answering God. How is your personal prayer life? Husbands and wives do you pray together? Do you have a family prayer with your children, and friends can pray together, and church believers also should pray together. Daniel’s life Dan 6:10. David Ps 55:16,17.
FOLLOW ME –and I will make you fishers of men. Matt 4:19. The reason God saved us and kept us here one earth,,is to share this good news with others..Jesus’ life is our example to follow, and before He left this world he gave us the commission to go and teach and make disciplesMatt 28:18-20..First your life will speak to your friends I Tim 4:12.

COME TO ME – all you who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Matt 11:28. When in any need , who do we first think about?..do we run to the phone or to the Throne? In the Bible people with different needs both rich and poor, came to Him, and when they sincerely sought Him, He always helped them. But for us to come to Him confidently, we need to KNOW about Him, and His abilities, his character etc. etc..The only way to get to know Him personally, you need to read your Bible..His Name is the Most powerful Name JESUS..and All power is given to Him both in heaven and earth, and His love is so great that He gave Himself for us.Have you accepted Him as your personal Lord and Saviour? Know Him as you Shepherd Ps 23, and also Ps 46:1 says He is your refuge, strength and a VERY PRESENT HELP in trouble..Donot stop with just taking Him as your Saviour, but also be baptised and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit Acts 2:37,38,39. Read the Bible regularly, and the word will be a lamp to your feet and light to your path.
LOOK TO ME –and be saved, all you ends of the earth. Is 45:22. Salvation and healing and deliverance for us is only in Jesus. Numb 21:4-9.Also read John 3:14. Jesus Christ was lifted up on the cross, and everyone who is bitten by the devil, who only comes to steal, kill and destroy, when they look at Jesus ,and understand what He did for us, and the divine exchanges that He gave us by that Blood covenant, we believe and accept this, we will surely be delivered for the sin, sickness and curses and poverty. Make the cross and His resurrection the centre of your life, for a victorious life..and get to know about the power of the Blood of Jesus Christ to have an overcoming life. Rev 12:11, Heb 13:20,21..
CALL TO ME – and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. Jere 33:3. Our God is alive, and He hears our prayers Ps 65:2. Matt 7:7. Be sure that God can do the impossible for you, and nothing is too hard for Him.Jere 32:27. Doubt is a hinderance, and so always find the right promises and claim them in prayer.Your heart needs to be free from bitterness and unforgiveness, and with faith pray with thanksgiving , that He is a prayer answering God. How is your personal prayer life? Husbands and wives do you pray together? Do you have a family prayer with your children, and friends can pray together, and church believers also should pray together. Daniel’s life Dan 6:10. David Ps 55:16,17.
FOLLOW ME –and I will make you fishers of men. Matt 4:19. The reason God saved us and kept us here one earth,,is to share this good news with others..Jesus’ life is our example to follow, and before He left this world he gave us the commission to go and teach and make disciplesMatt 28:18-20..First your life will speak to your friends I Tim 4:12.

TO DEAR BRIDEGROOMS AND BRIDES
For the past few days, I felt in my heart that I should share the important verses in scriptures regarding marriage and the role of husband and wife..the Word of God is our guide always..and lack of knowledge is dangerous..
BY living together you will learn a lot more,,but just a frame work of some verses will help you to prepare your hearts.. the secret of SUCCESS in any area of our lives is in Joshua 1:8..and it is always our choice what we do with the word,,either we become doers or just listen and donot obey! but I am sure you all would be doers of word,,and build a strong home on the ROCK of Christ and His Word as in LUke 6:45-49..storms and winds will come,,but the Lord is with you always..since He said "LET US GO OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE''..
Gen 2:18;Gen 2:23-25, the first wedding ,,,God uses 3 important words LEAVING - CLEAVING - BECOMING ONE FLESH..this is the foundation of a strong marriage..first is leaving your parents,,that doesn't mean you hate or forget them,,as the Bible teaches you need to honour them as long as you live for your own good..but it means..from the moment you make your wedding vows,,you leave them,,and now next to God, you give your partners the first place in your heart, to share and be transparent about everything....and cleave is like 2 pieces of paper is stuck with gum,so that both have to stick on together let come what happens, and NEVER talk of leaving each other, even for fun or in anger...... ..and thus both becoming one flesh.Matt 19:4-6..Respect each other always..
I will give the references..you can go through it one by one, and keep in heart.....
Gen 3:16 ; Prov 12:4; Prov 19:14; Prov 18:22; Prov 31:10-31; Prov 5: 18-19; Ecc 4:9-12; Ecc 9:8; Malachi 2:14,15; I Corin ch 7; Eph 5:22-33; Col 3:18,19; Heb 13:4; I Peter 3:1-7; Ps 112; Ps 128; I Corin 13.
Pray together and share everything, listen well to each other....but grooms remember,,women are created with more speech faculties,,and so girls remember your partners may not chit chat like us ladies,,,always remember God joins a man and woman to complement each other..accept each one as they are , and don't try to be changing your partners and get frustrated!!..
You will learn a lot as life goes on...
There will be difference of opinions,,and may be arguments too,,so always humble yourselves and apoligise if you hurt each other,,and reconcile with each other before going to bed, and forgive each other, and donot rake up the past......pray together atleast once a day,and read the word together..and maintain your personal walk with God..see the good and praise worthy traits in each other and appreciate each other much..be teachable and correctable all through life..be kind to each other..
So with this I will finish,,and we are always there for you, in case you need any advice at any time..o.k.with love..Nirupa aunty
