Topic: Hidden Causes Of Distress And Anxiety. How To Overcome..?

Often We can't understand why we go through distress and trouble? Why some did not settle financially? Why some lost their jobs? Why their loved one is not healed or why a friendship ended prematurely? Why relationships are broken sustaining no peace?

There are some things we only learn through pain—and sometimes it’s through the pain of other people.

It’s wise to learn from our own experiences, but it’s wiser to learn from the experiences of others—and to let others learn from our pain.

Job 36:15 says, “God teaches people through suffering and uses distress to open their eyes”

What does God want you and I to understand about the distress we are going through right now?

We all go through different kinds of trouble. But no matter what our specific pain is, God wants us to learn these three things from it:

First, we learn to DEPEND more on God through our pain. God wants to teach us about himself—about his power through our weakness, his love when we feel unlovely, his grace when we feel unforgiven, and his wisdom when we don’t know which way to turn. And in the crossroads.

Second, we learn to TRUST and obey God’s Word when you’re in pain. It’s easy to trust God when things are going great. It’s not so easy when things are going bad.

King David said in Psalm 119:67, “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I obey your word” (NIV). Lessons learned through failure and painful mistakes will drive us to claim and trust in God’s promises. His Word provides hope that he is with us and has not stopped working for us and in us.

Third, we learn through pain that we NEED other people in our lives. If you never had any pain in your life, you wouldn’t think you needed anybody. It’s only in pain that some people admit that they need others to help them. Pain is one of the most powerful reminders that you’re not meant to go through life alone.

If you’re going through pain right now, trust that what God is teaching you will be helpful to others as you pass the lessons on to friends, family, and even future generations.

Can you think of someone who would benefit from the lessons you are learning from your painful experience?

Help us Lord to depend on you rather than anything else and help us to trust you completely and help us to take help by having right fellowship with life minded people who desire to live in the light of Christ.

Topic: True Love! The Whole World May Disappoint You. But God's Love Will Never Never ....

John 3: 16.

A familiar verse...

For God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son...

God gave His best. His only Son. True sign of true love is, when we give our best to someone without any return expectations, and not empty words and jargon.

You may feel lonely, you may feel insecure, you may feel upset because things have not fallen in place as expected in life, you might have messed up your life, friends might have deserted you because of your failures.

You might have felt lack of love and people letting you down and putting you down. You may feel unwanted and rejected.

Well, we all have failed and made mistakes and come short of what God's expectations...

The whole world around you, you feel has forsaken you and dumped you. Doesn't matter! This morning I wish to share words of encouragement words of strength and hope. And that source is the Lord God Almighty.

His love is pure, His love is unconditional, His love is divine and infectious. Human love at most lasts for a season and changes depending on situations. Your close loved ones might desert you when you become empty and a failure. But cheer up this morning. God's love transforms any person who is at the verge of giving up. His love melts any broken heart to give hope and his love makes you secure and gives peace and calmness amidst confusion and turmoil.

Let's remember! Anyone who loves will not talk talk talk or preach preach but he or she GIVES. Giving is the only true sign that we love someone. God gave His Best! He GAVE His only son, Jesus Christ who saved and saves us from all past and present sins and mistakes. Unlike the human being who keeps nagging about your past mistakes for lifetime, the loving Lord will never remember our sins and mistakes, the moment we go to Him and ask Him to lead us. This is what I did and He never disappointed me eversince though challenges keep coming...

Unlike the human being God loves us even when we make mistakes and loves us just the way we are.

When we go to Him, He will -

turn our failures to success;

defeat to victory;

Disappointments to hope;

From Shame to honor and glory;

Anxieties and worries to hope and peace.

Yes dear Lord, the people in this world might forget and forsake us and bring disappointment. But when we come to you, you will always turn our sorrow into joy and make us comfortable and secured and strong. Help us to pin our hope in you and we know we will never regret in your love towards us....

Topic: Blessed family And Broken Family.

Joshua 24:15. I and my house we will serve the Lord.

There is no such thing as a "perfect family. " All families are broken. Even God's family has been split and imagine how God felt when the Angel Lucifer rebelled against God and took a team of the angels with him whom we now call as satan, devil and its foes.

Jesus came into the world died and rose again to be a reconciliator between God and sinful mankind.

So, when a family invites Jesus to be part of the family as a reconciliator, Shepherd and guide, He transforms the brokeness, cruckedness, raggednessedness into a refreshing smoothness of life. Christ becomes the foundation for a joyful harmonious unified family with peace reigning in the family.

Blessed families -

They love each other.

They go together.

They pray together.

They praise together.

They grow together from imperfection to perfection. They have fun together. Communication becomes edified and sweet. It becomes the fulcrum of their family.

Simple reason. Christ reigns in the family. A good happy and blessed family is perhaps more like a garden. It needs time, attention and cultivation. Whether they are poorest or rich, the sunshine of laughter and joy blossoms always and Overflows.

These families give time to each other, attention and cultivation. They desire to serve the Lord together.

Well broken families always face shame and blame. You can notice. No one admits but blame each other.

Causes of broken families are :

Abuse by parents and each other.

Frequent domestic violence.

Lack of intimacy.

Disrespect.

Parental conflict.

Communication break down.

Temperament. No self control.

Family members regularly display actions of abuse and disrespect that hurt the children psychologically n spiritually.

Help us to introspect as a family, and pray together and worship together as a family building on love and peace of Christ... and be a blessed family to be a blessing...

Topic: Praising God! Who Can Enjoy Praising God? What Are It’s Blessings?

People who pray are people who praise. Those who have the practise of talking to God I.e in prayer will have the eagerness to praise God.

Praise is a gift we give back to God in the light of all that He has done to redeem us. When we are grateful we automatically praise God.

Truly admiting, I and you can never praise God or enjoy in praising God when there is unconfessed sin in us.. A clean confessed repentant heart has the access to enter into His presence. He or she enjoys His presence to praise and glorify God.

Children of God who are obedient and trustworthy to the Lord God, will not only just praise God but enjoy to praise God at ALL times and in all situations like Apostle Paul who praised God from the prison with his bruised and wounded body.

People who have the habit of praying and prasing God has numerous blessings:

"Praise in our lives destroys and dissipates worries, doubts, loneliness, fears, despondency, disillusionment and depression. Praise refreshes us with renewed strength and hope." It strengthens faith and enhances confidence.

Praise draws power from the source of Almighty God which cripples the wings of satan, the powers of dark and evil attacks. Mostly in praise and worship, healing and deliverance takes place and restoration...

Create in us a clean heart O Lord and give us your grace to be obedient to your voice so that we enjoy praising you and have the blessings of restoration of what we lost and healing our physical and Spiritual well being....

Topic: I'm Blessed Favoured And Secured; Because Jesus Is My Life And Source Of Joy.

Philip 4:4.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

Sadness is the daily portion of many people. The world is full of suffering and hardship, and it can be difficult to find peace and happiness.

As a result, people can become bitter about the Adversities and struggles in their lives, and many of us sometimes blame God for our hardship and sorrow.

Apostle Paul, however, had a different message to share. Though he was in prison and had gone through many hardships, suffering and persecutions, he knew he could still find joy in the Lord, his Creator and Savior. He wrote to the Philippians from the prison: “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!”

Joy and happiness in the Lord is not a trivial or fleeting emotion. Instead it results from the deepest possible peace of knowing that our destiny is secure in God’s hands. As a result, a person can have deep and lasting joy in the Lord even in the midst of great anguish, loss, suffering and pain.

Of course, Life is not an amusement park. We face struggles and cross dark valleys and struggles. But our happiness is not a superficial, fleeting emotion. Our joy does not depend on the circumstances in which we find ourselves. It can never be stolen by anyone and not even satan because we are secured in Christ who is our bread, refuge, our strength and fortress.

As Paul puts it, our joy is in the Lord. In other words, Jesus is the source of our joy. He is the content of our happiness. Our happiness is not just in the absence of bad things or in the presence of good things. Our happiness and joy is in Jesus, knowing that he loves and cares for us and is with us always—forever! ....

Topic: Relationships. It's Not Wealth But Relationships Are Most Important In One's Life.

Ephes. 4:32. Be ye kind one to another tender hearted, forgiving one another, even God for Christ's sake has forgiven you.

John 13: 34. .. Love one another as I have loved you...

I would say, if we have mastered good ethical relationship we have mastered 75% of issues of life's problems - be it in a family,

our profession,

amongst friends' circle,

neighbours,

peer group,

or in the society. Especially in family life- relationship between your spouse, son, daughter, father, mother, mother in law. If we are successful at home it will be much easier to extend it in the society. Be an Angel at home. If you are an Angel at home, you will be an angel wherever you go - is what I feel and understand.

But if we are a devil at home always 24x7, inspite of best efforts we will show glimpses of devilish traits now and then from our life within. Because what's in our life will automatically come out even you suppress it.

With all experience in life and in my walk with Christ, I would say some of the best treasures of life we can afford to have is, having an excellent trustworthy and loving relationship.

I would say, there are numerous blessings that come along with it.

Foremost blessing and benefit is, we will have peace, tranquility and calmness within us. Good ethical relationship avoids-

day to day friction,

arguments,

being angry 😠 often.

It brings favour and promotions in our profession.

We will be loved by all because we sow it first. Word of God says, "love one another as I have loved you."

I always share time and again in my church - the importance of love, harmony and unity which comes only when we foster good ethical relations.

TrueRevival, sadly, I say is at a slow pace and in many churches it's a standstill because there is gossip and envy, putting down others, not liking others to come up. Mean healthy relationship is the need of the day to bless others.

All this can be improved and perfected if we could delight in understanding God's Word.

Bible is a book about relationships. Our relationship with God is a starting place. If we have good relationship with the Lord, it will be much easier to have relationships with others. If we love our Lord God, we will love others even if they hate us,

even if they harm us,

even if they put us down, and even if they dishonor us. We are the apple 🍎 of His eye. King David said, "He Wil lift us up before our own enemies."

Help us Lord to pursue, to delight in having good ethical relationship with you so that we will be blessed with love, forgiveness and foster good relationship....with others...

Topic: Everyone Is Unique And Gifted. No One Must Feel Inferior.

Because the Word of God says in Ps. 139:14. "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made."

I don't bother what people and the world thinks about me, but I know in God's sight I'm precious, and I'm fearfully and wonderfully made. And you too ....

But, we often hear people complain that God skipped over them when passing out the talents. They envy others who have musical abilities, speak publicly, sing melodious, cook nicely, gifted in playing certsin sports, or have any other talent they don’t have.

But everyone has God-given gifts, even if you don’t recognize or use them. But, it’s dangerous to compare our lives with others. Because it can leave us discouraged, resentful, or even angry, and it will prevent us from being thankful for what God has given us.

God gives us the talents needed to fulfill His plan for us. In 1 Peter 4:10-11, we are told, “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace:

whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God;

whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ...

And in James 1:17: “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights.” God wants us to use our talents to bring Him honor and glory and to bless others and not hold it for our selfish gains.

So, instead of being disappointed with what we have been given, we can ask God to show us how to use them. The more we use them, the more He will bless and give us.

Romans 12:6 says, “Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: in proportion to our faith.”

In thee O Lord, we are a new creation, precious, divine and unique. Lord therefore help us not to compare ourselves with others in either spiritual gifts, in financial matters and professional career and be envious. But help us to praise others for God's blessings on them so that you bless us because of our pure heart, good motives and undefiled love. In Jesus...

Topic: Father's Day! What Gift You Gave To Your Father Till Now?

Ephes. 6:2. Honor your father and mother.

By being grateful and thankful to your father and giving him reverence and honor I believe strongly, is the greatest gift you can present to your dad.

Father's Day is celebrated annually on the third Sunday in June in many countries across the globe 🌎. This day highlights the importance of Fathers and their contributions to their children's lives. This year it was on June 16th. Sunday there is no devotion on You Tube. So, I share on this topic today.

When Father's Day was first celebrated? It was first celebrated in the United States way back in 1909 in Spokane, Washington. This was initiated by Sonora Louise to honor her father, a widower who raised her six children.

We too lost our mom in the early days of our childhood. This story reminds me of my dad who too raised his six children with a single income going through the challenges of life.

And he raised his children in a godly way backed always with prayers. We all siblings are blessed without any lack whatsoever by God's grace. Its because of dad's sacrificial prayers and discipline.

The word of God says in Ps. 34:10. Those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing. It became true in our family because of my father who sought the Lord in all his ways. And he served God in the church and sunday school ministry too sincerely apart from His secular job.

It's every Father's dream and wish that their children are more successful and more blessed then they...

That's the only reason father takes a daunting task to guide children with "Yes And Nos." They take that extra risk for their children as they desire they come up with success in society. And therefore they encourage, motivate, guide and correct them more than mothers, if they stray aside, away from moral values, and from going wrong path. A wise father takes steps to guide them to safety.

Word of God says, in Ephes 6:2. Honor your father and mother.

Children who are in Christ know the value of what the father says and advises them from time to time. They feel dad and mom are most important in their lives next to God. They make every effort to obey dad n mom even if they don't like their advise. They give reverence to the father. They love the father and make him happy by spending time with them, sharing their success and their day to day life stories. They honor their father and take the parents advise sincerely. And such children are blessed like stars in the darkness.

Such children are no doubt also are precious gifts to the father who cherishes their success and blessednes in the society. And become proud blessed father and mom.

Those who are not in Christ however, they think their parent's advises are outdated and obsolete. They go their own way demanding more freedom. Children need to understand moral values never change even when times change. Word of God never changes even if culture changes. They bring sorrow and pain by misbehaving and by not heeding to their precious advise.

Lord we pray that every child will live a life that brings added joy and peace in family. Every child in the family will ever be grateful and thankful to parents as they become older and older.

Topic: Open My Eyes. Open My Eyes Lord To Behold Wondrous Things Of Life.

Luke 24:31. We read that the two disciples eyes were opened and they recognised Jesus, as He broke the Bread. And He vanished from their sight.

In pain, in suffering, in affliction, in answers for prayers get delayed, in sickness, we tend to see with our natural eye and panic often times as we see natural things of the world but nothing supernatural.

We often get scared by the natural circumstances and keep seeing through our natural eye and behave naturally forgetting we serve God who is not only supernatural, but Omnipotent and Omnipresent. We need to learn to live in supernatural by drawing closer and closer to the Lord..

If we mediate 2 kings 6th chapter 15th verse, we see, Ghaazi, the servant of Elisha, risen early and went out, and he saw with his eyes, host of enemy army compassed the city along with horses 🐎 and chariots. And said unto his master in fear, "Alas master, what shall we do?"

17th verse Elisha said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the servant and saw mountains were full of chariots of fire round about Elisha. It simply says, when we are obedient and walk in the fear of the Lord and in faith, we see supernatural power and His wondrous works around us and in us.

Help us to open our eyes 👀 to behold supernatural things of victory, healing and deliverance from fear, doubts, anxiety, loneliness instead of living and thinking negatively of defeated, demoralized life of pain and affliction. In Jesus....

Topic: Attitude! We Are Going To Change When Our Thoughts And Attitude Changes.

Mt 4: 17 Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

"Your Attitude and not your Aptitude will determine your Altitude"

"People may hear your words, but they feel your Attitude." If they know you do not care for them, how best you speak they will give a deaf ear. Bcoz they already know your Attitude.

Few more quotes:

"Attitude is my signature."

"Born to express, not to impress."

"People often want to show what's wrong with you because they can't handle what's right with you." ☹️

"Positive attitude can change the way you see the world and the way others see you."

What is a Christian attitude?

God's Word helps us to navigate life on earth, and show His love to the world. By, focusing our thoughts on what is good, trusting in God, embracing peace, nurturing a cheerful heart, finding joy and sunshine in each day.

Speak Life into your life everyday saying, -

I have a purpose;

I am a masterpiece;

I'm wonderfully made;

God has a great and blessed plan for me..

We are not going to change until our thoughts and attitude change. This is why a daily quiet time is important. The time we spend intentionally, sincerely with a longing desire studying God’s Word and in conversation with him through prayer is the spiritual renewal in our mind. We have to get to know God so we know what he expects from us and desires for us.

Repent means “change of mind” towards godliness and forsaking worldliness, filthiness, and the works of flesh.This is the best godly attitude. It makes our lives move away from barreness and witheredness to fruit bearing and being fresh in spirit and green in life.

The word “repent” is actually a Greek word: metanoia. Metanoia means to change your mind—

to turn from death to life,

sin to forgiveness,

guilt to peace of mind,

hell to heaven.

You turn from “my way” to God’s way.... The most positive change in our life will be when we repent of our sin and turn from regret to forgiveness and peace of mind.

We have to learn to think in new ways about our defects and flaws. That’s a new way of thinking.

You probably never thought of that, but that’s repentance! That’s a change of mind.

We have to change the way we think so we can make the most of our strengths instead. To do that, we “must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had” Can read Philippians 2:5.

God wants us to learn to think like Jesus. How do we do that? Again, it’s a choice. We got to make a choice and say, “Lord, how would Jesus think about this?” The more we fill our mind with God’s Word, the easier that’s going to be.

Help us to know Lord, in You, we are born to win, born to succeed and be fruitful and victorious in all our thought life, conversation and in our deeds.....
