*When troubles come one after another we tend to feel discouraged. 

When the children of Israel were in a state of disarray and Moses was downtrodden, God stepped in and commanded to"move on"

Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand Firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today..... The Lord will fight for you"

I urge you to go forward.

When it's dark, look for the light.

When it's day time, look for the cloud of promise. 

The Lord God is with you, and He offers all the power of His Command. 

 The Lord has taken away your punishment, he has turned back your enemy. The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you; never again will you fear any harm. On that day they will say to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, Zion; do not let your hands hang limp. The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.

Zephaniah 3:15-17

Flowers appear on the earth;the cooing of doves is heard in our land. Song of Songs 2:12 (a, c) 

Flowers are beautiful. It grows on the ground decorating the earth.

Birds are flying in the sky. Its songs make those on earth happy.

Jesus taught that both are cared for by the Heavenly Father. God decorates the lotus in the field and provides for the birds of the sky.

A heavenly message is shared through it. How much the Heavenly Father cares for you when you read this. The Father who is in heaven knows everything.

Don't be anxious.

Read with meditation

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labour or spin.  If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? Matthew 6:26, 28,30

The king has brought me into his chambers. Song of Songs 1:4

Chambers are the place of revelations. The place where divine mysteries are revealed. Yes, King Jesus has revealed Himself to those who are alone with Him.

Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest is my beloved among the young men. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste. Song of Songs 2:3

Like other trees, apple tree is a tree that does not shed its leaves. The beloved relaxes in the cool shadow. Blessed is the one who dwells under the shadow of the Almighty under the cover of the most High. How delicious its fruit is.

And he brought me into the banquet hall.   Song of Songs 2:4

The banquet hall is a place where happiness overflows. A joy that no one can take away. In the presence of the Lord there is fullness of joy, and on His right hand there is pleasures evermore.

It's not over .....

And the banner over me is love. Song of Songs 2:4

The flags are sometimes raised but lowered in half during mourning. But the flag of love which was raised on the Calvary, will always be high!

Revelation, rest, eternal bliss, victory celebration...

രാജാവ് എന്നെ പള്ളിയറകളിലേക്കു കൊണ്ടുവന്നിരിക്കുന്നു;ഉത്തമഗീതം 1:4

 
പള്ളിയറകൾ വെളിപ്പാടുകളുടെ സ്ഥലമാണ്. ദൈവീക മർമ്മങ്ങൾ വെളിപ്പെടുന്ന ഇടം. അതെ, രാജാവായ യേശുവിൻ്റെ കൂടെ തനിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നവർക്കാണ് അവിടുന്ന് തന്നെ വെളിപ്പെടുത്തിയത്.

കാട്ടുമരങ്ങളുടെ ഇടയിൽ ഒരു നാരകംപോലെ യൗവനക്കാരുടെ ഇടയിൽ എന്റെ പ്രിയൻ ഇരിക്കുന്നു; അതിന്റെ നിഴലിൽ ഞാൻ അതിമോദത്തോടെ ഇരുന്നു;ഉത്തമഗീതം 2:3

മറ്റു മരങ്ങളെപ്പോലെ ഇലകൊഴിയാത്ത ഒരു വൃക്ഷമാണ് നാരകം. കുളിർമ്മ നൽകുന്ന നിഴലിൽ പ്രിയ വിശ്രമിക്കുന്നു .അത്യുന്നതൻ്റെ മറവിൽ സർവ്വ ശക്തൻ്റെ നിഴലിൻ കീഴിൽ പാർക്കുന്ന വ്യക്തി എത്ര അനുഗ്രഹിക്കപ്പെട്ടവൻ(ൾ).അതിൻ്റെ ഫലം എത്ര രുചികരം.

അവൻ എന്നെ വീഞ്ഞുവീട്ടിലേക്കു കൂട്ടിക്കൊണ്ടുചെന്നു;   ഉത്തമഗീതം 2:4

 
വീഞ്ഞ് വീട് സന്തോഷം കവിഞ്ഞൊഴുകുന്ന ഇടമാണ് .ആർക്കും എടുത്തു കളയുവാൻ കഴിയാത്ത ആനന്ദം. കർത്താവിൻ്റെ സന്നിധിയിൽ സന്തോഷ പരിപൂർണ്ണതയും അവിടുത്തെ വലത്തു ഭാഗത്ത് എന്നും പ്രമോദങ്ങളും ഉണ്ട്.

തീർന്നില്ല .....

അവൻ എൻ്റെ മീതെ അവൻ പിടിച്ചിരുന്ന കൊടി സ്നേഹമായിരുന്നു. ഉത്തമഗീതം 2:4

 
പതാകകൾ ചിലപ്പോൾ ഉയർന്നിരിക്കും എന്നാൽ ദുഖാചരണങ്ങളിൽ പകുതി താഴ്ത്തിക്കെട്ടും .എന്നാൽ കാൽവരിയിൽ ഉയർത്തിയ സ്നേഹക്കൊടി എന്നും ഉയർന്നിരിക്കും.

വെളിപ്പാടു്, വിശ്രമം ,നിത്യാനന്ദം, ജയോത്സവം...

🎵🎵

യേശുവിൻ കൂടുള്ള യാത്ര ആനന്ദമെ

ആ മാർവ്വോടു ചേർന്നിരുന്നാൽ ഭയമില്ലായെ

അൻപേറുന്ന കൈകളാൽ അത്ഭുതമായി നടത്തിടും

മാധുര്യമേറും മൊഴികളാൽ താൻ സ്നേഹമെന്നോട് പങ്കു വയ്ക്കും
ഒറ്റയ്ക്കു വിടുകയില്ല മടുത്തു മാറുകയില്ല
അന്ത്യം വരെ ആ ചൂടു മതി യേശു എന്റെ കൂടെ മതി

 

പുഷ്പങ്ങൾ ഭൂമിയിൽ കാണായ്‍വരുന്നു;  കുറുപ്രാവിന്റെ ശബ്ദവും നമ്മുടെ നാട്ടിൽ കേൾക്കുന്നു.  ഉത്തമഗീതം 2:12 (a, c) 

പുഷ്പങ്ങൾ  മനോഹരമാണ് .അത് നിലത്ത് വളരുന്നു. ഭൂമിയെ അലങ്കരിക്കുന്നു .
പക്ഷികൾ ആകാശത്ത് പറക്കുന്നു .അതിൻ്റെ ഗാനങ്ങൾ ഭൂമിയിലുള്ളവരെ സന്തോഷിപ്പിക്കുന്നു.

യേശു പഠിപ്പിച്ചു;ഇതു രണ്ടും സ്വർഗ്ഗസ്ഥനായ പിതാവിനാൽ പരിപാലിക്കപ്പെടുന്നു .വയലിലെ താമരയെ ദൈവം ചമയിക്കുന്നു .ആകാശത്തിലെ പറവകളെ പുലർത്തുന്നു.

ഒരു സ്വർഗ്ഗീയ സന്ദേശം ഇതിലൂടെ പങ്കുവെയ്ക്കപ്പെടുന്നു. ഇതു വായിക്കുന്ന നിങ്ങളെ സ്വർഗ്ഗസ്ഥ പിതാവു് എത്രയധികം  പുലർത്തുന്നു.
സ്വർഗ്ഗസ്ഥനായ പിതാവു് എല്ലാം അറിയുന്നു.
വിചാരപ്പെടരുത്.

ധ്യാനത്തോടെ വായിക്കുക

ആകാശത്തിലെ പറവകളെ നോക്കുവിൻ; അവ വിതയ്ക്കുന്നില്ല, കൊയ്യുന്നില്ല, കളപ്പുരയിൽ കൂട്ടിവയ്ക്കുന്നതുമില്ല; എങ്കിലും സ്വർഗസ്ഥനായ നിങ്ങളുടെ പിതാവ് അവയെ പുലർത്തുന്നു; അവയെക്കാൾ നിങ്ങൾ ഏറ്റവും വിശേഷതയുള്ളവരല്ലയോ?

"ഉടുപ്പിനെക്കുറിച്ചു വിചാരപ്പെടുന്നതും എന്ത്? വയലിലെ താമര എങ്ങനെ വളരുന്നു എന്നു നിരൂപിപ്പിൻ; അവ അധ്വാനിക്കുന്നില്ല, നൂല്ക്കുന്നതുമില്ല.
ഇന്നുള്ളതും നാളെ അടുപ്പിൽ ഇടുന്നതുമായ വയലിലെ പുല്ലിനെ ദൈവം ഇങ്ങനെ ചമയിക്കുന്നു എങ്കിൽ, അല്പവിശ്വാസികളേ, നിങ്ങളെ എത്ര അധികം.
ഈ വകയൊക്കെയും ജാതികൾ അന്വേഷിക്കുന്നു; സ്വർഗസ്ഥനായ നിങ്ങളുടെ പിതാവ് ഇതൊക്കെയും നിങ്ങൾക്ക് ആവശ്യം എന്ന് അറിയുന്നുവല്ലോ. മത്തായി  6:26, 28,30

🌺🌻🌹🌷 

അന്വേഷിക്കുവിൻ ആദ്യം നിങ്ങൾ
ദൈവത്തിന് രാജ്യം ..എന്നാൽ
താതൻ നിങ്ങൾക്കായി
എല്ലാം ചേർത്ത് തന്നീടും
എല്ലാം ചേർത്ത് തന്നീടും

വാനിടത്തിൽ പറവജാലം വിതക്കുന്നില്ലല്ലോ

Dr.Harold Adolph performed 25,000 surgeries in his career called her" One of the most hopelessly ill patients I ever saw ".

Her friend informed bible Christian radio station and requested prayers for healing. A team started praying for Barbara. 

In 1981 on Pentecost Sunday Barbara heard a man's voice. " My child get up and walk" 

" She literally jumped out of bed removed her oxygen. She was standing on legs that had not supported her for years. Her vision was back. She could move her feet and hands freely".

That night Barbara attended a, Worship service at Wesleyan church. When she walked down the center aisle the people began to applaud and the choir was singing.. "Amazing  Grace"

Christ performed the miracle. She believed. she had to get up and walk... 

So do you.. So do I. 

Are you the one lying there for long years. ?? 

Would you like to get well? 

No more Bethesda for you. No more waking up and going to sleep in the same mess. He is ready to write a new chapter in your biography.

Robert J Morgan wrote many blessed books . 

His wife Katrina was paralysed 25 years ago. But the family blessed many through their ministry and writings. 

*One incident from their life.... 

" Several years ago Robert and I used to go to Paris for our Anniversary. A travel agent specializing in disability helped us. 

We were told the easiest way from airport to hotel was travel by train. But when we arrived at  underground station elevator wasn't working. 

"You should go back to airport" Attendant said. 

But my loving husband Robert decided to carry me up the stairs. He carried me in his arms  and we reached our hotel. We had a wonderful time in the city"

In our every disruption, daily frustration and uncomfortable emergency, God is our strength and very present help. God keeps us going. He never leaves us, He's never busy, never on a break, never loses interest or tired. 

When life's elevators fail, Jesus lifts us up. 

 “Listen to me, you descendants of Jacob, all the remnant of the people of Israel, you whom I have upheld since your birth, and have carried since you were born. Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you

10,000 reasons.. Matt Redman

" My dad died when I was 7 years old, and I found out a few years later that he committed suicide"

Yet in the wake of this pain and confusion Matt clung to a truth he discovered a few years later.
"When I was 10  years old, in June of, 1984 Luis palau came to London. My mom and me attended the crusade.

 
As Luis talked about the Father's perfect love in contrast to the failures of human fathers, something clicked for Matt. " It was like i knew for the first time this God who has made Himself available and accessible. There is a Father in Heaven who calls me, and for me that just resonated. It was like I was His little kid".Thank you Lord Jesus.

 
Matt Redman started writing songs that blessed many.
Are you going through a tough time? No reasons coming in mind to praise God?

 
Think of the ways God led you in the past. Yes there are ten thousand reasons ......

🎵For all Your goodness

I will keep on singing

Ten thousand reasons

For my heart to find

Start singing loudly which ever situation you are.. God is worthy of all worship and praises.. Amen

Bless the Lord oh my soul

Oh my soul

Oh my soul

I'll worship Your Holy name

The sun comes up

It's a new day dawning

When the evening comes

Bless the Lord oh my soul

Still my soul will

Sing Your praise unending

Ten thousand years

And then forevermore

Forevermore

 

Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.  For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:9-10

The meaning of name "Zacchaeus" is 'clean, innocent, pure, righteous,... But his life was not..

 
He wanted to see Jesus..
Zacchaeus, climbed on a tree like a little child.
He went away from the crowd.
He gladly received Jesus ...

 
When God whispers our name, everything will change..
Jesus loves tall and short, black and white, rich and poor, wise and ignorant.. God is love.

 
Zacchaeus longed for a better view of Jesus. He was not satisfied hearing about Jesus from other people.

He ran on ahead of everyone and climbed up a blossoming fig tree to get a glimpse of Jesus as he passed by.Luke 19:4 (tpt)

 
Habakkuk prophet sang the wonderful song..
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights. Habakkuk 3:17-19

 
In Zaccheaus life when he saw Jesus
His life became new, a great joy of salvation filled his heart and feasting started in his home and life .

 
*In the writings of clement of Alexandria,
Zacchaeus was mentioned as prominent Christian leader and elder of church in caeseria.

Tell Jesus, 🎵🎵

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord

Open the eyes of my heart

I want to see You

I want to see You

To see You high and lifted up

Pour out Your power and love

As we sing holy, holy, holy

Blessed day...!

But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin. 1John 1:7

 

*As an old man who had followed Jesus from his youth, John called on believers of his day to return to a simple, intimate, day by day, moment by moment walk with Jesus. 

"If we walk in the light as He is the light, we have fellowship with one another. 1 John 1:7

In other words : Just walk with Jesus all day long. 

In John's day as well as today, the tendency is to get involved with the complexities of many responsibilities, programs, inventories and books that offer seven keys to this and ten steps to that. Unfortunately, too much attention to these good things may prevent us from focusing on what really matters.Jesus Christ. 

John says.. 

Let me make it simple 

Walk with Jesus. 

Cling to your faith. 

Stay in the light. 

When you fail confess and move on. 

Show your love for Jesus by loving your brothers and Sisters in His Name.. 

Let  us walk with Jesus now...... 

Blessed day..

Eight "I Will " Of Our God

 

I will remove from you all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals, which is a burden and reproach for you. 

At that time I will deal with all who oppressed you

. I will rescue the lame; 

I will gather the exiles.

 I will give them praise and honor in every land where they have suffered shame. 

 At that time I will gather you; 

at that time I will bring you home. 

I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes before your very eyes,” says the Lord.

Zephaniah 3:18-20

Believe the Word of the Lord..... Sing a song to Jesus

*In his book, A Spiritual Clinic, J. Oswald Sanders wrote about the lasting family legacies of two families from New York.

Two families from the state of New York were studied very carefully. One was the Max Jukes family and the other was the Jonathan Edwards family.

The thing that they discovered in this study is remarkable: like begets like.

Max Jukes was an unbelieving man and he married a woman of like character who lacked principle.

And among the known descendants, over 1,200 were studied.

Three hundred and ten became professional vagrants; 440 physically wrecked their lives by debauched lifestyle; 130 were sent to the pen for an average of thirteen years each, 7 of them for murder.

There were over 100 who became alcoholics; 60 became habitual thieves; 190 public prostitutes. Of the 20 who learned a trade, 10 of them learned the trade in a state prison. It cost the state about $1,500,000 and they made no contribution whatever to society.

In about the same era, the family of Jonathan Edwards came on the scene. He was a man of God, who married a woman of like character. The study yielded the following concerning Jonathan Edward’s descendants:

Three hundred became clergymen, missionaries, and theological professors; over 100 became college professors; over 100 became attorneys; 30 of them became judges; 60 of them became physicians; over 60 became authors of good classics; 14 became presidents of universities.

There were numerous giants in American industry that emerged from this family. Three became United States congressmen and one became the vice president of the United States.

Never forget the impact your life decisions will make—in yourself, your marriage, and on your children.

In ways you will never know in this life, you are building a legacy that will last for generations

“Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments; and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them.

A man stayed  near a hill for holidays for few  days. Every day he put a lamp in front of his home. He was writing a book staying in that home.. 

After some days when he was about to leave, he went to say good bye to the old woman staying opposite to his house. 

The Old woman said:"Whenever I see the lamp in front of your house, I feel I am not alone. "

The man started crying. 

The writer  told  his servant to keep the burning lamp every night in front of his house. 

Let us put some burning lamps. ( small deeds of kindness, smile, visit, small help, phone call,... ) 

Let the light of the world Jesus reflect His glory and love through our lives.... Reminding others they are not alone and Jesus loves them.. 

Put the lamp now  wherever you are. .. Let the light spread.... 

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.  Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.Matthew 5:14-16 

Lord i need you, Every hour..

Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.  As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him.
But they urged him strongly, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them. When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight.
Luke 24:13,14,29,30

*The two disciples reached the dead end of their life journey. They were discouraged, tensed, lost all hopes in their life.

Jesus knew they were discouraged. He could have sent another disciple to them..He could have sent atleast one angel to them...He could have sent a letter or a note of encouragement..

Jesus didnt do any of the above, He walked Himself beside them, talking...
Why?
‭‭
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Psalms 23:4(a)

 
When the road seems to be difficult, Jesus walks with you.
When the questions seems to be difficult , Jesus talks to you.
When the hearts seems to be weary, Jesus refreshes you.
The two disciples may watched Him from distance, during His arrest, trial, death on the cross....

But now the ressurrected Jesus walked with them very close....7 miles.....

 
Are you the one walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus.??. To a long distance.....
Through these words you are reading,May Jesus speak  to you.....

 
Tell Jesus ...Abide with me.... And He will prepare a table before your enemy...
Run back to Jerusalem.. Be a witness of Jesus . 
Jesus loves you.....

He was born in an obscure village,
The child of a peasant woman.
He grew up in still another village,
Where he worked in a carpenter shop
Until he was thirty.
Then for three years
He was an itinerant preacher.
He never wrote a book.
He never held an office.
He never had a family or owned a house.
He didn’t go to college.
He never visited a big city.
He never traveled two hundred miles
From the place where he was born.
He did none of the things
One usually associates with greatness.
He had no credentials but himself.
He was only thirty-three
When the tide of public opinion turned against him.
His friends ran away.
He was turned over to his enemies.
And went through the mockery of a trial.
He was nailed to a cross
Between two thieves.
While he was dying,
His executioners gambled for his clothing,
The only property he had on Earth.
When he was dead,
He was laid in a borrowed grave
Through the pity of a friend.
Twenty centuries have come and gone,
And today he is the central figure
Of the human race,
And the leader of mankind’s progress.
All the armies that ever marched,
All the navies that ever sailed,
All the parliament that ever sat,
All the kings that ever reigned,
Put together have not affected
The life of man on Earth
As much as that
One Solitary Life.

God's servant journeyed through the jungles of Africa, sharing the love of God .

There is no way to the next village in the dense forest. He asked the village tribal leader: “Could you send a guide to the next village with me?” The village tribal leader agreed.

With an axe, the guide walked along the road ahead clearing the way: Cutting away the vines and bushes which were full of thorns.

A very arduous journey.

After quite some time, God's servant asked the guide:

“I've been following you for a long time. Which is the way to the destination?”

The guide said “As far as you are concerned, I am your way” 

“Follow me.”

The servant of God is once again asked a question

“What's the evidence?”

"These wounds." 

The servant of God stared at the wounds on the guide's body without blinking.

He's my way...

**

You know the way to the place where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:4-6

Yes: Jesus is the only way.

What's the evidence?

Look at the nail marks on Jesus' hands and feet.

We can also say...

O my Lord!

Oh, my God!

 

ആഫ്രിക്കൻ കാടുകളിലൂടെ ദൈവഭൃത്യൻ ദൈവത്തിൻ്റെ സ്നേഹം പങ്കുവെച്ചു കൊണ്ട് സഞ്ചരിച്ചു .

കൊടുംവനത്തിലുള്ളിൽ ഇനിയുള്ള ഗ്രാമത്തിലേക്ക് വഴിയില്ല. ഗ്രാമത്തലവനോട് അദ്ദേഹം ചോദിച്ചു .അടുത്ത ഗ്രാമത്തിലേക്ക് ഒരു വഴികാട്ടിയെ അയയ്ക്കാമോ? ഗ്രാമമുഖ്യൻ സമ്മതിച്ചു.

ഒരു കോടാലിയുമായി ഗൈഡ് മുമ്പേ വഴി വെട്ടി തെളിച്ചു കൊണ്ട് നടന്നു. വള്ളിച്ചെടികൾ, മുള്ളുകൾ നിറഞ്ഞ കുറ്റിച്ചെടികൾ വെട്ടി മാറ്റിക്കൊണ്ടിരുന്നു.

വളരെയധികം പ്രയാസമുള്ള ഒരു യാത്ര.

കുറെ കഴിഞ്ഞപ്പോൾ ദൈവഭൃത്യൻ വഴികാട്ടിയോട് ചോദിച്ചു.

വളരെ സമയമായി ഞാൻ നിങ്ങളെ അനുഗമിക്കുന്നു .ഏതാണ് ലക്ഷ്യസ്ഥാനത്തേക്കുള്ള വഴി ?

ഗൈഡ് പറഞ്ഞു 'നിങ്ങളെ സംബന്ധിച്ചടത്തോളം ഞാനാണ് നിങ്ങളുടെ വഴി' 

എന്നെ അനുഗമിക്കുക .

ദൈവദൃത്യൻ വീണ്ടും ഒരു ചോദ്യം

എന്താണ് തെളിവു്?

" ഈ മുറിപ്പാടുകൾ "  

ദൈവഭൃത്യൻ വഴികാട്ടിയുടെ ശരീരത്തിലെ മുറിവുകളിലേക്ക് ഇമവെട്ടാതെ നോക്കി .

ഇദ്ദേഹം തന്നെ എൻ്റെ വഴി...

**

ഞാൻ പോകുന്ന ഇടത്തേക്കുള്ള വഴി നിങ്ങൾ അറിയുന്നു.  തോമാസ് അവനോട്: കർത്താവേ, നീ എവിടെ പോകുന്നു എന്ന് ഞങ്ങൾ അറിയുന്നില്ല; പിന്നെ വഴി എങ്ങനെ അറിയും എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു. യേശു അവനോട്: ഞാൻതന്നെ വഴിയും സത്യവും ജീവനും ആകുന്നു; ഞാൻ മുഖാന്തരമല്ലാതെ ആരും പിതാവിന്റെ അടുക്കൽ എത്തുന്നില്ല. യോഹന്നാൻ 14:4-6

അതെ: യേശു മാത്രം ഏക വഴി.

എന്താ തെളിവു്?

യേശുവിൻ്റെ കരങ്ങളിലേയും കാലുകളിലേയും ആണിപ്പാടുകളിലേക്ക് നോക്കുക.

നമുക്കും പറയാം...

എൻ്റെ കർത്താവേ!

Samuel Logan brengle blessed many through his writings.
How he began his writing ministry?

As a young newly married man he was sent to slums of Boston to share God's love. The place was dangerous. One night he was returning home after ministry a drunken man threw a brick. it hit his head and heavily injured him.

Brengle stayed in hospital for six weeks. Returning home he was unable to resume his schedule for a further period of eighteen months.
During this time he began writing in a magazine  named war cry. Later the articles are printed as a book named 'Helps to holiness ".it was translated to a dozen different languages and sold record number of copies.

 
For the rest of his life wherever he went people thanked for him for the writings. His response always was " Well if there had been no little brick, there would have been no little book"!!

One day brengle went back to his home and asked his wife about the brick that had almost killed him.

She handed him the brick.. She had written the words of Genesis 50:20  on that brick.
"As for you, you meant it for evil ;but God meant it for good to keep much people alive"..

 
*
Now let us thank God for all the bricks in our life.... Remember God's Word..
‭‭
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28

Thank You Lord Jesus.....

🎵🎵

I come  before You today

And there's just one thing that I want to say

Thank you, Lord

Thank you, Lord

For all You've given to me

For all the blessings that I cannot see

Thank you, Lord

Thank you, Lord

With a grateful heart

With a song of praise

With an outstretched arm

I will bless Your name

FATHER OF COMPASSION AND GOD OF ALL COMFORT

 

            Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out--the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, "Don't cry." Then he went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. He said, "Young man, I say to you, get up!" The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. Luke 7:11-15

Two deaths had shattered her life. First was her husband’s. Now it’s her only son’s.

An empty house… loneliness…They reached the town gate. Just a few steps to the burial place. Those who mourn and those who play the pipes and the relatives, are all there. But there is none that could comfort her with words.

There comes another crowd towards them.

That was none other than Jesus of Nazareth and his disciples!!! She didn’t fall at His feet. There weren’t even words of great faith. 

Just two words to the widow… CRY NOT.

And to the dead man just eight words… YOUNG MAN, I SAY TO YOU, GET UP…

A never drying fountain of mercy and grace…The river of compassion is overflowing its banks… Streams of comfort flowed into her shattered heart….

Here are the mother and her son going happily to their home.

Mourning turned into dancing

Sack cloth was taken off and happiness was put on

While weeping endured for a night in that house, joy has come in the morning…

Now, can’t you put even one step forward?

No more hopes… All grown faint?

Is your life a valley of tears?

Open your eyes of faith and behold Jesus, once…

That’s all!!

Let the streams of grace overflow!

മനസ്സലിവുള്ള പിതാവും സർവാശ്വാസവും നല്കുന്ന ദൈവം..

 

പിറ്റന്നാൾ അവൻ നയിൻ എന്ന പട്ടണത്തിലേക്ക് പോകുമ്പോൾ അവന്റെ ശിഷ്യന്മാരും വളരെ പുരുഷാരവും കൂടെ പോയി. അവൻ പട്ടണത്തിന്റെ വാതിലിനോട് അടുത്തപ്പോൾ മരിച്ചുപോയ ഒരുത്തനെ പുറത്തു കൊണ്ടുവരുന്നു; അവൻ അമ്മയ്ക്ക് ഏകജാതനായ മകൻ; അവളോ വിധവയായിരുന്നു. പട്ടണത്തിലെ ഒരു വലിയ പുരുഷാരവും അവളോടുകൂടെ ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു. അവളെ കണ്ടിട്ടു കർത്താവ് മനസ്സലിഞ്ഞ് അവളോട്: കരയേണ്ടാ എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു; അവൻ അടുത്തു ചെന്നു മഞ്ചം തൊട്ടു ചുമക്കുന്നവർ നിന്നു. ബാല്യക്കാരാ, എഴുന്നേല്ക്ക എന്ന് ഞാൻ നിന്നോടു പറയുന്നു എന്ന് അവൻ പറഞ്ഞു.  മരിച്ചവൻ എഴുന്നേറ്റ് ഇരുന്നു സംസാരിക്കുവാൻ തുടങ്ങി; അവൻ അവനെ അമ്മയ്ക്ക് ഏല്പിച്ചുകൊടുത്തു. ‭‭ലൂക്കൊസ് 7:11-15 

രണ്ടു മരണങ്ങൾ അവളുടെ ജീവിതം തകർത്തു. ഒന്ന് അവളുടെ ഭർത്താവ് ഇപ്പോൾ ഇത് അവളുടെ ഒരേ ഒരു മകൻ.

ശൂന്യമായ ഒരു വീട്... ഏകാന്തത... പട്ടണവാതിലോട് അവർ അടുത്തു. സെമിത്തേരിയിലേക്ക് ഏതാനും ചുവടുകൾ മാത്രം. വിലാപക്കാരും കുഴലൂതുന്നവരും ബന്ധുക്കളും എല്ലാവരുമുണ്ട്. പക്ഷേ അവളെ ആശ്വസിപ്പിക്കുവാൻ ആർക്കും വാക്കുകളില്ല...

അതാ മറ്റൊരു ആൾക്കൂട്ടം എതിരെ വരുന്നു.

അത് മറ്റാരുമല്ല നസറായനായ യേശുവും ശിഷ്യൻമാരും !!!

അവൾ അവൻ്റെ കാൽക്കൽ വീണില്ല. വലിയ വിശ്വാസത്തിൻ്റെ വാക്കുകൾ പറഞ്ഞില്ല.

വിധവയോട് ഒരു വാക്ക്.. കരയേണ്ടാ.

മരിച്ചവനോട് ആറു വാക്കുകൾ...ബാല്യക്കാരാ, എഴുന്നേല്ക്ക എന്ന് ഞാൻ നിന്നോടു പറയുന്നു...

കരുണയുടേയും കൃപയുടേയും വറ്റാത്ത നീരുറവ.. മനസ്സലിവിൻ്റെ നദി കരകവിഞ്ഞൊഴുകുകയാണ്'... തകർന്ന അവളുടെ ഹൃദയത്തിലേക്ക് ആശ്വാസത്തിൻ്റെ നീർച്ചാലുകൾ....

ഇതാ അമ്മയും മകനും സന്തോഷത്തോടെ ഭവനത്തിലേക്ക്....

വിലാപം നൃത്തമായി

രട്ട് മാറി സന്തോഷം ധരിച്ചു

സന്ധ്യയിങ്കൽ ആ വീട്ടിൽ കരച്ചിൽ വന്നു രാപാർത്തെങ്കിൽ ഉഷസ്സിൽ ആനന്ദഘോഷം വന്നിരിക്കുന്നു ..

ഇനി മുൻപോട്ട് ഇരു ചുവട് പോലും വെക്കാൻ കഴിയുന്നില്ലേ?

ഇനി പ്രതീക്ഷകളില്ല.. എല്ലാം അസ്തമിച്ചുവോ?

ജീവിതം കണ്ണീർ താഴ്വര യോ?

വിശ്വാസ കണ്ണുകൾ തുറന്ന് യേശുവിനെ ഒന്ന് നോക്കുക.....

അത്ര മാത്രം !!

കൃപയുടെ നീർച്ചാലുകൾ കവിഞ്ഞൊഴുകട്ടെ!

Have Thine own way Lord

* A hymn that talks about our being the clay and God the potter is "Have Thine Own Way, Lord" 

The text was written by Adelaide Addison Pollard, who was born Nov. 27, 1862, into the Presbyterian family of James and Rebecca Pollard. After attending the Denmark Academy , she taught in several girls’ schools.  she was a talented writer of both prose and poetry and produced many religious articles and hymns.

   Miss Pollard’s main interest was sharing God's love. Throughout her life, her frail body was plagued with weakness caused by diabetes, but she travelled all over the United States and spoke to numerous groups about Bible teaching. 

In 1902, at the age of forty and still single she made plans to go to Africa as a missionary teacher under the leadership of a man named Sanford. When she was on the verge of preparing to sail, at the last minute her funding failed and she was forced to cancel her trip.

 The discouraged woman attended a prayer meeting and while sitting quietly heard someone make the following statement: "It’s all right, Lord! It doesn’t matter what you bring into our lives. Just have your own way with us." Thinking about these words on her way home, she put the hymn on paper before retiring that night.

After failing to go to Africa, Adelaide taught for several years in a missionary training school at Nyack-on-the-Hudson, NY. However, when she was nearly sixty, she did make a short trip to Africa just prior to World War I, but with the outbreak of hostilities she was sent to work in England and Scotalnd.

  After the war, she returned to America and resumed her speaking tours, despite failing health. On Dec. 20, 1934, at the age of 72, she became ill while waiting to board a train in New York City, NY, to go to a speaking engagement in Philadelphia, PA, and died soon afterward that same day. Her body was buried at Ft. Madison in her native state of Iowa, not far from her hometown.

Too many people spend their whole lives pursuing their own goals and doing what they want to do rather than taking time to seek what God would have them do. But the Christian’s life must be one of complete submission to the will of God. And this attitude is well exemplified by the plea, "Have Thine Own Way, Lord."

The song suggests the way to develop the characteristic of submission to God. 

But now, O LORD, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.   Isaiah 64:8

🎵🎵🎵

Have Thine own way Lord
Have Thine own way
Thou art the potter I am the clay
Mold me and make me after Thy will
While I am waiting yielded and still

Have Thine own way Lord
Have Thine own way
Search me and try me Master today
Whiter than snow Lord wash me just now
As in Thy presence humbly I bow

Have Thine own way Lord
Have Thine own way
Hold over my being absolute sway
Filled with Thy spirit till all can see
Christ only always living in me

നിന്നിഷ്ടം ദേവാ! ആയിടട്ടെ
ഞാനോ മൺപാത്രം നിൻകരത്തിൽ
നിൻപാദത്തിൽ ഞാൻ കാത്തിരിക്കും
നിന്നിഷ്ടംപോൽ നീ മാറ്റുകെന്നെ

*THE SILENCED BELL

The poem, ‘Curfew Must not Ring Tonight’ by Rose Hartwick Thorpe written in 1867 is based on an incident during the reign of Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) 

 It describes the deep love of Bessie, a young and beautiful girl, with the young soldier, Basil Underwood. The soldier was charged with a crime and imprisoned. He was tried, found guilty and condemned to be shot dead at the moment when the bell rings to signal the evening curfew.

The executioners were waiting to hear the curfew bell to carry out the execution. Exactly at the prescribed moment, the bell-ringer grabbed the large rope and pulled it with full force to sound the huge bell. The bell moved but there was no sound. He pulled several times but the bell was silent. Cromwell sent soldiers to investigate why the bell did not sound.

 They found that Bessie, the soldier’s fiancée had climbed to the top of the bell tower and tied herself to the huge clapper hanging in the heavy bell to prevent its striking against the bell. She was knocked back and forth and smashed between the bell and the clapper with every pull of the rope. Her head, hands and ribs were crushed. 

She was produced before Cromwell with a bruised and bleeding body. Cromwell was deeply impressed by her willingness to suffer for love. He appreciated her heroic and courageous action and immediately pardoned the prisoner. He said to the lady, “Your lover shall live because of your sacrifice. Curfew shall not ring tonight.”.. 

‭‭ ‭

 Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written,“For Your sake we are being put to death all day long;We were considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

‭‭
And Jesus went with him; and a great multitude followed him and thronged him. And a certain woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years and had suffered many things of many physicians and had spent all that she had and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse;Mark‬ ‭5:24‭-‬26‬ ‭

*She was a bruised reed. 

Suffering for 12  years

.spent all money she had..

getting worse.

 
Not allowed to enter the  synagogue..

 
Physically exhausted. 

Socially out from society.

 
'instead of getting better she grew worse'

But Jesus was surrounded by people...

 
"If I can touch His clothes... " I will be healed.
Risky decision. She may be rebuked by people.

 
You may have nothing to give Jesus., only hurts and pain. Just offer Him your hurts, pains and tears.

 
Just take a step of faith. A touch ..

 
When the garment of Jesus' is touched- whether by the hand of a broken hearted woman in Galilee or by the prayers of any one in the world... Jesus stops and responds...

This is your time.... Touch Him by faith.. Right now....

Advisory Note: Suicide is not the solution to anything. Seek help from mental health professionals and try to live.. 

What you read above is a footnote found in newspaper reports. We see this every day. Following the suicide news, the phone number for counselling is being published for the help of everyone.

Suicide is not the solution to anything. Only God, who gave the life, has the authority to take it back.

Speak this word to God in any situation: Jesus, help me. He is near to those whose hearts are broken. He saves those whose hearts are broken.

Two songs in Malayalam come to mind in this connection.

Note: The Malayalam song has been translated to English in Prose style here.

Never has a rain remained unstopped

Never has a wind remained tempestuous forever

Never has a night passed without a morning following

Never has a pain remained aggravated forever

                     .................................................................................

Beyond the fall season

Remember the spring season arrives

Beyond tears running down your cheeks

Remember you have a smile

Of course it's very true. Look at God's face without looking at the circumstances.

Those who looked to Him were radiant. Their faces were not ashamed.‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34:5‬ ‭‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

But now, this is what the Lord says—

   he who created you, Jacob,he who formed you, Israel:

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;

    I have summoned you by name; you are mine.

 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. ‭‭Isaiah ‭43:1‭-‬2‬ ‭‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

      God, help me.

Heal me. Please save my family. Get me out of this state of total destruction. Do a miracle in my life now. In the name of Jesus hear me, Father, Amen."

.................................... ............ :...............

Beyond the fall season

Remember the spring season comes

Beyond tears running down your cheeks

Remember that you have a smile

If you look to God with hope,

Know that you'll be answered

Know that you will be answered

Beyond the fall season…

*Beyond those bitter pains

There’s a sweet healing

Beyond the dark clouds in the sky

Remember there’s a sunshine

If you look at God with faith 

   Know that you'll be answered

Know that you will be answered

Beyond the fall season…

Beyond the darkest nights

Remember there’s the radiance of morning

Beyond the raging stormy waters

There’s Jesus the giver of peace

Behold your God in faith

Know He would answer you

Know He would answer you

Beyond the fall season…

In a canoe upon stormy waters (2)

He is with me on the board

                      The fog the rain and sweltering heat

                          His precious gifts are all these

                          My Father prepares these for me

                          For the wellbeing of my life

            On the road strewn with stones and thorns

                           He walks with me all the time

                           When I stumble and fall down

                         There He carries me up on His shoulders

*Song lyrics in malayalam.. Peter cheranallur, fr sajan

 

ശ്രദ്ധിക്കുക: ആത്മഹ‌ത്യ ഒന്നിനും പരിഹാരമല്ല. മാനസികാരോഗ്യ വിദഗ്‌ധരുടെ സഹായം തേടുക, അതിജീവിക്കാൻ ശ്രമിക്കുക

 
പത്ര വാർത്തകളിൽ കാണുന്ന ഒരു അടിക്കുറിപ്പാണ് മുകളിൽ വായിച്ചത് .ദിവസവും ഇതു കാണാം. ആത്മഹത്യ വാർത്തകൾക്ക് ശേഷം  എല്ലാവർക്കും വേണ്ടിയാണ് കൗൺസിലിംഗിനുള്ള ഫോൺ നമ്പരടക്കം പ്രസിദ്ധീകരിക്കുന്നത് .
ആത്മഹത്യ ഒന്നിനും പരിഹാരമല്ല.ജീവൻ നൽകിയ ദൈവത്തിന് മാത്രമേ അത് തിരിച്ചെടുക്കാൻ അധികാരമുള്ളത്.
ഏത് അവസ്ഥയെങ്കിലും ദൈവത്തോട് ഒരു വാക്ക് പറയുക. യേശുവേ എന്നെ സഹായിക്കേണമേ. അവിടുന്ന് ഹൃദയം തകർന്നവർക്ക് സമീപസ്ഥനാണ്. മനസ്സ് തകർന്നവരെ അവിടുന്ന് രക്ഷിക്കുന്നു .
മലയാളത്തിൽ രണ്ട് ഗാനങ്ങൾ ഓർമ്മ വരുന്നു.

ഒരു മഴയും തോരാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു കാറ്റും അടങ്ങാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു രാവും പുലാരാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു നോവും കുറയാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല;...

കവിളിലൂടൊഴുകുന്ന കണ്ണീരിനപ്പുറം

തീർച്ചയായും വളരെ വാസ്തവം തന്നെ. സാഹചര്യങ്ങളിലേക്ക് നോക്കാതെ ദൈവത്തിൻ്റെ മുഖത്തേക്ക് നോക്കുക.

അവങ്കലേക്കു നോക്കിയവർ പ്രകാശിതരായി; അവരുടെ മുഖം ലജ്ജിച്ചുപോയതുമില്ല.‭‭സങ്കീർത്തനങ്ങൾ‬ ‭34:5‬ ‭

ഇപ്പോഴോ യാക്കോബേ, നിന്നെ സൃഷ്‍ടിച്ചവനും, യിസ്രായേലേ, നിന്നെ നിർമിച്ചവനുമായ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: ഭയപ്പെടേണ്ടാ, ഞാൻ നിന്നെ വീണ്ടെടുത്തിരിക്കുന്നു; ഞാൻ നിന്നെ പേർ ചൊല്ലി വിളിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു; നീ എനിക്കുള്ളവൻ തന്നെ.  നീ വെള്ളത്തിൽക്കൂടി കടക്കുമ്പോൾ ഞാൻ നിന്നോടുകൂടി ഇരിക്കും; നീ നദികളിൽക്കൂടി കടക്കുമ്പോൾ അവ നിന്റെ മീതെ കവികയില്ല. നീ തീയിൽക്കൂടി നടന്നാൽ വെന്തുപോകയില്ല; അഗ്നിജ്വാല നിന്നെ ദഹിപ്പിക്കയുമില്ല.
‭‭യെശയ്യാവ്‬ ‭43:1‭-‬2‬ ‭

ദൈവമേ എന്നെ സഹായിക്കേണമേ.
സൗഖ്യം നൽകണമേ. എൻ്റെ കുടുംബത്തെ രക്ഷിക്കേണമേ. ഞാൻ തകർന്നിരിക്കുന്ന ഈ അവസ്ഥയിൽ നിന്ന് എന്നെ കര കയറ്റണമേ. ഒരൽഭുതം എൻ്റെ ജീവിതത്തിൽ ഇപ്പോൾ ചെയ്യേണമേ. യേശുവിൻ നാമത്തിൽ പിതാവേ ആമേൻ'

Are you going through tough time?

 

**At times life seems harder than we can bear, especially on days when we’re stunned by grief, worried about the situation in the world, distressed over health or finances, or reeling from waves of trouble. We long for joy in the morning, but sometimes we’re in the darkest night.

In 1 Samuel 30, while fleeing the armies of King Saul, David was attacked at Ziklag by the Amalekites. His family was kidnapped, the town was burned, and his men rebelled against him. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, and it was David’s darkest hour. He wept till he had no more strength to weep.

According to 1 Samuel 30:6, David responded to his trouble by strengthening himself in the Lord. That simple statement is a sermon to our souls. David was under incredible strain as his circumstances had gone from bad to worse. Yet he refused to give up. He knew how to strengthen himself in the Lord by shifting his attention from his hopelessness to his Helper. Today, we need to remember that all our troubles are temporary, and all our blessings are eternal.

We don’t know when David wrote Psalm 13, but the psalm certainly fits this occasion.

Darkness

            Psalm 13 opens with David darkly crying: “How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily?”

            These words were written by a man so low in spirits he feared the omniscient God had forgotten him and the loving God had forsaken him. I wonder if you’ve had moments like that. Emotional pain is the cruelest kind, and hopelessness is one of the cruelest kinds of emotional pain. During times of despair, it’s best to be frank about our feelings and to pray honestly, like David, who cried, “How long, O LORD?”

Dawn

As we continue reading Psalm 13, however, we see David turn a corner in verse 3, as he continued, “Consider and hear me, O LORD my God; enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; lest my enemy say, ‘I have prevailed against him’; lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved” (verses 3-4).

Though David felt abandoned, he knew better in his heart. His knowledge of God was greater than his emotions of despair. His theology was stronger than his feelings. Despite his pain, he managed to pray, asking God to consider him and to hear him in his hour of need.

There’s one thing we know about the night: It’s not permanent. We are not forsaken, not forgotten, not destitute, not detached. If we can lift our eyes heavenward and whisper a prayer in Jesus’ name, we’ll eventually see a glow on the horizon as the sun begins to rise with healing in its rays. The Lord has a way of imparting grace when we need it most. He enables us hour by hour and moment by moment. He reminds us that our momentary afflictions are not worth comparing to the glory to be revealed.

The Lord doesn’t want us to be stuck in the regrets of yesterday or seized by fear of tomorrow. We simply trust Him for today. He gives grace from moment to moment; and as the hours pass, the darkness turns to dawn and the dawn to daylight.

 

Daylight

As we come to the end of Psalm 13, David senses the possibility of rejoicing once again. “I have trusted in Your mercy,” he wrote. “My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the LORD, because He has dealt bountifully with me” (verses 5-6).

Let me leave you with some hopeful hints for the darkness.

 

• If you feel you cannot pray, just Say Lord Jesus help me. 
• If you feel you cannot remember any Scriptures, read Psalm 13 aloud.
• If you feel you cannot sing, just try the first line of your favorite hymn or praise chorus.
• If you can’t find a promise, remind yourself of Hebrews 13:5: “He Himself has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’”

You can strengthen yourself in the Lord. God hasn’t forsaken us, even though the darkest hours in our lives make us feel alone and forgotten. Don’t give up. Moment by moment, His sustaining care will turn the darkness to dawn, the dawn to daylight.

. . Lord pl touch and heal the broken heart.. In Jesus Name. Amen
