Exhort

I really marvel at the greater submission and commitment lay by our missionaries who sacrificed their lives and didn’t consider their life to be of any value and followed the teaching of Paul (god inspired) and Jesus and thus the result was the foundation of first protestant church.

Early CSI, Lutheran churches are laid with much dedication and sacrifice. But present condition swayed all those dedication and made it corrupt. Early Pentecost church had oneness in spirit, god-fearing and was expecting Jesus coming back, (act2) and todays Pentecost church expecting numbers in church, tithes and offerings. Peter and Paul clearly portrays the last days of church condition, that there will be many false teachers IIpet2. And many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. But the sad part is people still do not know they are being deceived and even they talk about the same and aware of it too but not knowing they themselves are trapped in. These people could not distinguish between the good bad and their eyes are blinded.

 If we walk by spirit we will be able to distinguish the truth and it really takes much courage to follow the narrow way and to hear the voice of lord by casting all arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of god and taking captive of every thought to make it obedient to Christ. IIcor. Most of the people have a vision called television as Leonard says. In this case still not sure how are we able to talk about godly business and interpreting his word. For sure their interpretation goofs up them but they have a license called grace and take it as granted and say will not god speak to us? Will not god hear the sinner’s voice? Will not he answer our prayers? The saddest part is we have a wrong yard stick to measure god’s way. What is your yard stick to measure? Yard stick should be the god of word taking with no compromise. No matter what people or pastors think!

Leonard said: i think one of the serious breakdowns in modern evangelism is this: it has offered us too much for too little. What we do mostly is offer people forgiveness. We need cleansing! There is no true conversion until a man takes up his cross. We don’t actually put people on the cross. Rather we just only take them to cross. Even the servant of god do not have light in them and leading people into dark and the people who follow them says we have a better insight through him and he is preaching awesome and make everyone to think. How sad it is today Christendom love to hear itching sermons and will turn away from truth and aside to myths.

 these people are prejudice in thoughts and not ready to accept the truth/scripture which troubles them a lot. who also would speak contrary to this if it is preached in congregation, or anywhere and will say just pray and do not condemn the preachers for they will be forgiven someday day if they confess and repent, of course that is true on other part, but the primary role here is we need to point out that as Paul says in I Tim 4 NIV sketch like this: if you point these things out to the brothers and sisters, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the truths of faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.

Quotes of Leonard Ravenhill

http://www.gospeltruth.net/ravenhill.htm

If you're going to be a true Christian, I'll tel l you one thing amongst others: it'll be a lonely life. It's a narrow way and it becomes narrower and narrower and narrower

A missionary voice

 
It looks like all doors were shut and no open door seems to be visible in our eyes for the planned youth camp which is going to be organized. We are four people engaged actively to stand up for god to turn the souls to god besides that our ministry is SOUL TURN. Half way through the run on this juncture we could visualize that Satan might be feeling happy about the present situation of closed doors; however the interesting part is Satan himself doesn't know that his plans are known to us as GOD is expecting us to step in faith though no doors were opened. Behold he has kept the door open and no one can shut.

He calls the one as if it exists- Roman4:17b- through the eyes of faith we see open doors

Neither by might nor by strength but by my spirit says the lord of host to Zerubbael

I’ve been reminded of the four vessels mightily used by god when i was having a daily devotional study of the books Ezra and Zechariah;
Joshua
Zerubabael
Zachariah
Ezra
and
Nehemiah too later..... So i decided to sketch this letter to my fellow brothers as


We walk by faith not by sight......... let’s put all our strength to accomplish this youth camp and bring many drowned souls back to GOD...

When Arun and myself was in Ranchi mission field as a full time missionary, i remember the magnificent days which we spent for Lord. Our whole life body, mind, spirit everything was spent to lord alone. I used to think at that time, if i would have money in my hand i can conduct youth camps one after the other to transform all the youth to Christ. I used to think as;

If i would have money i can do this

If i would have money i can do this. but not completely on the mind set of money
 
i knew it should be accomplished by faith, but the fact on which am insisting you is to turn back and check our mind set/attitude towards the earnings of our income. Where have we set it to focus on the money? At times we used to think alike worldly people to save money for ourselves (
inner voice says: be wise enough in managing all). Of course when i was a missionary i didn’t had a single point of intention to save money at any circumstances. (though like a passing clouds I think alike of saving money but never done, up-until this time for other cause) Of course Paul writes at one stage to save money but the crucial fact is the driving force behind Paul which made him to do that. Take a moment and think for a while now............

Our consciences will precisely answer the present condition of our state?
 
So where to set our mind on?
Set your mind on things above and not on earth. Col 3:2.

 
"
Faith is risk taking" as i remember Dannie bro always say this and i haven't met a single person alike personally in Tamilnadu who minister to god. Probably some will be there but didn't get a chance to meet.i wonder still why we forget all the times about this true fact though we knew it better, later i discovered it is because we are in the world and we don’t see anyone who is walking in faith to impact and influence us whereas we need to take the step courageously and start influencing others. But for sure there will be many who will scoff us at the way we live because no one knows the way we are taking and understood Jesus. The first scoffing would start from friends, family, relatives & servant of god too. .... If you belonged to the world, it would love your as its own. As it chosen you out of the world that is why the world hates you- jn15:19.
 
Boat should be on the water, but should not be filled with water – Hudson Taylor

Be on guard and protect your heart.

Eventually my agony in Christ has been vented out !!!!

Hopefully we all stepped on faith (Wilson, Arun, Ranjan & jones) and foreseeing the latter rains in youth camp.

youth meeting status. To be continued…





Who needs a shower?



I found a man looks dirty and dreadful, entering in to the hotel while I was waiting for my order to suffice at my table.Suddenly the manager ran over to him and said something about rules and regulations to avoid sitting with the other customers to maintain his business standards……

Then God reminded me to think about the vital part in Christianity.



"The Love with the unclean people’s".Then I felt pity about myself, me too has the same attitude like keeping distance if a beggar trying to get close or even touch us, won’t allow to sit close us while eating or even not allowing in churches to sit inside next to us.

Does Jesus do the same when he found Sinners, enemies, lepers, beggars and poor people’s?

Does he not allow getting close with him?

I know a richest man in this world who can be ever compared to any other, humbled himself as a poor beggar born amidst dirty place mixed up with cow dungs & big mosquitoes. Spent his whole life with sinful and unclean peoples and killed by those peoples who think themselves they are clean and rejected him and not allowed him to get closer with them and sentenced him to death.

Now that person (Jesus Christ) is asking me a question?

Who is the unclean person?

Yes we will say I am clean in my dress, wearing hifi clothes, perfumes, nice bed and under AC…

But our heart smells like a rotten egg….not allowing the poor closer to us and keeping a distance and
Turning the face out

Are we doing the same things what they done to Christ?

After reading this we may foresee as a difficult task to accomplish in our life ,since the present day servants of god failed to set an example in living.

But i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

I urge everyone who read this to put into practice of HIS teaching and show the True Love of God not by words than by deeds.

who is a christian?

Ezekiel 33: 30- 33

But as for you, son of man, your fellow citizens who talk about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, speak to one another, each to his brother, saying, Come now and hear what the message is which comes forth from the LORD. They come to you as people come, and sit before you as my people and hear your words, but they do not do them, for they do the lustful desires expressed by their mouth, and their heart goes after their gain. Behold, you are to them like a sensual song by one who has a beautiful voice and plays well on an instrument; for they hear your words but they do not practice them. So when it comes to pass as surely it will then they will know that a prophet has been in their midst.

Behold, days are coming, declares the Lord GOD,
When I will send a famine on the land,
not a famine for bread or a thirst for water,
But rather for hearing the words of the LORD.
People will stagger from sea to sea
and from the north even to the east;
They will go to and fro to seek the word of the LORD,
But they will not find it.
In that day the beautiful virgins and the young men will faint from thirst. Amos 8:11-13
The losing susbstances in Christendom
Faith
love
Obedience 

Christendom is losing anointing but gaining more knowledge in scripture, whereas the end result will be of no harvest, the vineyard will not bear any more fruits, because the world comes into their life and gets occupied, gaining knowledge will not help us to know the mind of Christ, we get occupied with world and trying to imitate the world in all areas. Mixing the world in spiritual aspects, As a children of god we should have a discernment to know and test the spirits. Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.1 john 4:1 A well known servant of god once said And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2

The Boat Must Be On The Water, But Shouldn't Be Filled With Water. Similarly we are living in the world but should not get drunk with world, as the scripture says When comes to knowledge in bible,the demons even have the knowledge of scripture and he knew the nook and corner of the bible of what it is written.James says that demons also believe, and shudder “james 2:19. And also when Jesus was returning from his forty days of fasting,satan tempted him using the scripture, and jesus always quoted "It is also Written". See how well satan was thorough in scripture. Some say that scripture will set you free, or in other words THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE. You know when the scripture will begin to work in our life only when we start believing in it.

when we read heb4:2 For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them,not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. when we say faith it should be accompanied by action (deeds) as we see in james 2: 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

If anyone says Im a Christian be a follower of Christ
Not only hearer of words but doers of words.
Not only by scriptures but by deeds

My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth “ 1 john 3:18
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked. 1 john 2:6

Who are you?

Today Christendom world is a mask Wearing Christian
which they do not know they are wearing it and walking in hand to hand with devil, very few has the spiritual discernment to identify which is the right church I have to move on and who is a spiritual leader. Many have the knowledge of scripture but not the mind of Christ in scripture.

When we post or share a word to any believers or unbelievers, are we a Guide or a Guide post to them ? Guide is a one who walks all the way with them, explain and show the things which they do not know and experienced, means they already knew that and experienced it or following it;;but guidepost is the one who just tell go this way and find it ,i.e.; Guidepost which has no emotion,feelings,attitude etc.just a dumb. Many believers who claim to be a Christian are as Guidepost and they tend to forgot to obey and follow what Christ did in all his life.

 I john2 :3-6 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He who says, I know Him,and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked
.

Dear brothers and sisters if you claim to be a real Christian, then you will be an impacter of Christ not just an ordinary Sunday Christian.when we share a scripture to anyone first you practice that verse and share it which will make a heavy impact in their life and lord will be delighted in you.if all Christians will follow this and live a bible life,world is for Christ!

Do you know how the apostles died?

Matthew

Suffered martyrdom in Ethiopia, killed by a sword wound

Mark

Died in Alexandria, Egypt, after being dragged by horses through the streets until he was dead

Luke

Was hanged in Greece as a result of his tremendous preaching to the lost.

John

Faced martyrdom when he was boiled in huge basin of boiling oil during a wave of persecution in Rome. However, he was miraculously delivered from death. John was then sentenced to the mines on the prison island of Patmos. He wrote his prophetic Book of Revelation on Patmos. The apostle John was later freed and returned to serve as Bishop of Edessa in modern Turkey. He died as an old man, the only apostle to die peacefully.

Peter

He was crucified upside down on an x-shaped cross. According to church tradition it was because he told his tormentors that he felt unworthy to die in the same way that Jesus Christ had died

James

Just The leader of the church in Jerusalem, was thrown over a hundred feet down from the southeast pinnacle of the Temple when he refused to deny his faith in Christ. When they discovered that he survived the fall, his enemies beat James to death with a fuller's club. This was the same pinnacle where Satan had taken Jesus during the Temptation.

James the Great

Son of Zebedee, was a fisherman by trade when Jesus called him to a lifetime of ministry. As a strong leader of the church, James was ultimately beheaded at Jerusalem. The Roman officer who guarded James watched amazed as James defended his faith at his trial. Later, the officer walked beside James to the place of execution. Overcome by conviction, he declared his new faith to the judge and knelt beside James to accept beheading as a Christian

Bartholomew

Also known as Nathaniel Was a missionary to Asia. He witnessed for our Lord in present day Turkey. Bartholomew was martyred for his preaching in Armenia where he was flayed to death by a whip.

Andrew

Was crucified on an x-shaped cross in Patras, Greece. After being whipped severely by seven soldiers they tied his body to the cross with cords to prolong his agony. His followers reported that, when he was led toward the cross, Andrew saluted it in these words: 'I have long desired and expected this happy hour. The cross has been consecrated by the body of Christ hanging on it.' He continued to preach to his tormentors for two days until he expired

Thomas

Was stabbed with a spear in India during one of his missionary trips to establish the church in the sub-continent (history says he was speared in chennai.which is famously known as ST.Thomas mount)

Jude

Was killed with arrows when he refused to deny his faith in Christ.

Matthias

The apostle chosen to replace the traitor Judas Iscariot, was stoned and then beheaded.

Paul

Was tortured and then beheaded by the evil Emperor Nero at Rome in A.D. 67. Paul endured a lengthy imprisonment, which allowed him to write his many epistles to the churches he had formed throughout the Roman Empire. These letters, which taught many of the foundational doctrines of Christianity, form a large portion of the New Testament.


Perhaps this is a reminder to us that our sufferings here are indeed minor compared to the intense persecution and cold cruelty faced by the apostles disciples during their times for the sake of the Faith. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake:
But he that endureth to the end shall be saved. Matthew 10:22

by reports

Bible Martrys

Before teaching the Bible, the church (congregation) should be taught about how we got this Bible in our hands.

This is what happened to those who translated the Bible:John Wycliffe (1383):The Council of Constance declared Wycliffe (on 4 May 1415) a heretic and under the ban of the Church. It was decreed that his books be burned and his remains be exhumed. The exhumation was carried out in 1428 when, at the command of Pope Martin V, his remains were dug up, burned, and the ashes cast into the River Swift, which flows through Lutterworth.

Martin Luther (1522):
The Old Testament was completed in 1534.
It was made a crime for anyone in Germany to give Luther food or shelter. It permitted anyone to kill Luther without legal consequence.

William Tyndale (1530):Tyndale was betrayed by Henry Phillips to the authorities, seized in Antwerp in 1535 and held in the castle of Vilvoorde near Brussels. He was tried on a charge of heresy in 1536 and condemned to death, despite Thomas Cromwell's intercession on his behalf. Tyndale "was strangled to death while tied at the stake, and then his dead body was burned". Tyndale's final words, spoken "at the stake with a fervent zeal, and a loud voice", were reported as "Lord! Open the King of England's eyes."

Within four years, at the same king's behest, four English translations of the Bible were published in England, including Henry's official Great Bible. All were based on Tyndale's work.

Since we are illiterate to this heart breaking history, we never give any regard to the word of God but rather throw it to one corner to be in the dust. If by any chance you see a Bible today, make it a point that you try to read it, at least one verse. If you think watching TV is more important to you, I urge you to please pass it on to your neighbor, perhaps he might be interested to go to Heaven to see God in His presence and to see all these heroes of history.

             I see many do not have a conviction that holy spirit is not dwelling in their hearts, present pentecost people have projected indwelling of holy spirit in christendom as only if people shouts or show some weird reaction when they pray, which is not true. ofcourse manifestation of holyspirit can be seen. the bible says in Eph1:13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise. which precisely shows that we are sealed with Holy Spirit when we believe and accept jesus as lord. so why are we not able to yield more? its
  • Disobedience
  • Acknowledgment of sins
1.obedience is an act of worshipping the lord besides we sing, play music and worship which is greater than of all.
Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the peoples on earth; for all the earth belongs to me- Exod19:5 -NLT. on contrary to this is disobedience,so when we disobey we obviously ending up in sinning against lord.

For as by the one man's Adam's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's Christ'sobedience the many will be made righteous.Rom5:19.

2. acknowledgment of our sins
Hosea5:15 “I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence and seek my face .kjv-2000. but we do not accept the mistakes, rather we give excuses and reasoning.if we want to protect or show as righteouss before men we can give numerous justification to defend us, But the lord says us to acknowledge the mistakes we have done, so that he can pour out the former and latter rains in our life,

Hosea6:3- Let us know, let us press on to know the LORD; his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.KJV-2000)

 the former rain will come to soften the land as the field will become easy to plough and then later the latter rain will come , so that the matured plants can bear fruits, similarly when we acknowledge our sins ,lord will pour out the former and latter anointing in our life to edify us and bear fruits, when former anointing fill us, our heart will be soften (Ezekiel36:25-27) and when we grow little bit as we learn to walk , the latter anointing will fill us to bear fruits in our life. Be ready to receive both rains in our life, Be blessed!!!!!

Conscience

Are you hurt in conscience?
If not going to church on every Sunday than staying in brotherhood love
If not hearing sermons on every Sunday than obeying to sermons
If not reading Bible than transgressing the laws
If not taking part in communion at church than to leave Racism & denomination
If spoken against pastor than the Holy Spirit
If not tithing than to feed the poor.

hmm…. which means the conscience is fine tuned to other channel and the channel name is “Christian religion” where it has got so many viewers. Pharisees and Satan are the part takers of this channel. Antichrist is the one who act as Christ in this channel programs. There is no lack for songs, dance, enjoyment, sentiment and entertainment. Special programs are there on every Sunday and on special occasions; program includes ladies special, youth special, children special and more. The viewers and part takers will have to pay their life as a penalty at the judgment day. So Fine tune to correct channel  “Jesus Christ” where limited no of viewers are there.

Be blessed

Struggle or Battle

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. I cor10:13

Greet you in the name of our risen lord who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age (gal 1:3). After being chosen by god and called for us his faithful ministry who considered me as a faithful servant in appointing to his service (I tim1:12). On the run I have been seeing a strong temptation which is trying to cease me from running and turning my views to world. Shortly I was thinking like a worldly man being dragged into lustful thoughts and my mind was occupied with lust. Oh after a while I realized where am I going? "Lost my missionary vision" after a while I Shook of all the lustful thoughts and came to god and wept aloud why I was being dragged into it. It happened many times in the past few days.so I decided to sketch this letter. Is it struggle or battle since I went into the lustful cave often and thought I captivated as a slave. So I struggled/battled to go back to lords presence and I never experienced like this before, first time I’ve been pulled away from lord’s presence and find a stern challenge to go back to his feet. At one state I was able to go back to his feet. I asked god, am I struggling or wrestling/battling against sins. Sat on his feet and the lord began to speak to me slowly, showing all the hindrance’s that I need to eliminate and lack of understanding made to fall into trap. Means everyone will be tempted but we should not give up to temptation. Earlier I find it difficult in obeying, later I was able to obey after a consistent prayer. I found 5 main driving factors that kept away from lord if we fail on the below things

                    Meditating on word of God daily
                    Consistent prayer
                    Obedience
                    Uncompromising in trivial things
                    Personal relationship

All the above quoted was found very less in my life and got satisfied myself with compromising in following all to the least. One day when I was praying lord reminded me this verse and spoke precisely about my present condition though I knew it and was not able to pay attention fully with obedience, later I discovered it was only the word of god which will drive us to conviction and obedience with implicit action. It is this verse "
You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary. Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place Rev2:3-5" .

on other side my inner voice whispered saying you heard this so many times why do you want to make a move now at this instance and are you sure about the move which are goanna make now. I was not able to refrain from the thoughts for a while later i overcame by earnest supplications and prayer and it’s the Holy Spirit who gave me a hand. "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need-heb4:15-16".

I was convicted and able to prevail over my inner voice when I understood that a hunger heart for holiness will always stand against sin and can’t afford to sink inside for a long time as rubber ball or balloon immersed into water will immediately purge out of water. Similarly I came out and found it’s a battle with Satan who constantly makes plan and war against those who hunger for holiness and willing to make their path to HIM. The verse gave a comfort and conviction that
the Lord my Rock,
who trains my hands for war,
my fingers for battle- psa144: 1"

I failed to understand when I was tempted more and gave up that I have sinned when I’m not, eventually I was trapped into sin for a while for the cause of wrong understanding and not adhering to all the above four major crucial things for a Christian life. A true Christian will have battle with Satan all the days of his life, battling with faith taking the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God and pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. Eph 6: 17-18. Since we have a conqueror who won over the death and the resurrection power helped me in winning all the battles. So no temptation has seized us as we have a mighty and awesome god who helps us in all our needs.

The bottom line is we should come back to god thousand times even if we fail constantly rather staying away with guilt. His mercy endures forever to those
who confess sins; he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness- I john1:9. the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.- prov28:13b.

No Matter you sin Million times, get back to lord for mercy and never sin anymore ! Draw a line and come out from the sinning area where you are in now.

GOD's WILL


I hear people say god's will would fulfill in my life, but they failed to understand that only if we are fine tuned with word & anointing it would fulfill in making a good choice with obedience. Choice is given in our hands.

Jer21:8- This is what the Lord says: See, I am setting before you the way of life and the way of death.

If that's the case then at the end of the world lord all souls would be in heaven,his will is to save all the souls howeverhe has given free will to humans to make choice in believing HIM.if not then his word would stand nullify and satan too will come and contend with god for justice. since god presented him as an atonment sacrifice for our sins and whoever believes in his death and resurrection would be saved.romans3:25,26.so by faith in HIM we are saved not by works, which means we have a grace to make choice in believing him.many misunderstood the grace as it would bring all the people to heaven.

Grace defines in some dictionary as credit or gift given to an unworthy person.when god saw that his people are perishing in sin,he came as a ransom to save all of us and we are saved through faith.bible says we are saved through grace by faith.

here faith is our choice, grace is his death on cross.

Witness or Denial

                 Todays christendom really mean it only if they encounter a big situation to witness our lord, lest they forget to be honest and witness in trivial things of life.

                        Jesus foretells the peter denial prophetically before he does. Ideally peter denial was not in front of the Great majesty courtyard or before the high priest (initially), the denial started with gatekeeper who is a young girl (John 18:17) and not widely known by anyone in that city.
Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Peter, "You are not also one of this Man’s disciples, are you? "He said, "I am not."
 
Moreover peter could have thought this girl is not so important for him to answer honestly and at the same time he could have in pursuit of rescuing Jesus from those high parties where the young girl attention is not needed much and it is well known that she could not deliver Jesus from them. But though he has a good attitude of rescuing Jesus, failed to pay attention to the small young girl and refrained from honesty. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes; But the Lord weighs the hearts. Pro21:2.
 
Eventually when we compromise in small things we end up the same in big things as peter denial end up with high priest servant and officers thereby later after the incident. Here peter is much concerned about Jesus rescue and could have been making plans to deliver him from high priest, and in that time he was Questioned by officers & servants and immediately he Denied (Luke 18:18 &25, 26) Now the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself!!!!!!!!!! "You are not also one of His disciples, are you? "He denied it and said, "I am not!" One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with Him?" Peter then denied again; and immediately a rooster crowed.

Do we pay attention to watchmen who is standing in front of the court, Super market, Restaurant or shopping mall or wherever it could be, if we encounter such situation to be a witness in front of them who are least bothered in society and less cared by people? Are we witnessing Jesus before those set of people! Take a pause and look behind the days gone by in your life wherein you encountered such situation. if you would have come across one of such incidents then, it’s time for us to acknowledge those mistakes and get reconciled with lord, many will not realize the sin which they have committed or give much care which they have forgotten, it’s time to be on our knees before the lord and confess which you could remember and get reconciled with lord and come up with a new covenant to be honest and witnessing in all areas of our life even in our personal areas where no can see to it. Just Trust, it is going to give you an everlasting peace in your heart, as the Holy Spirit would start moving in your hearts whispering slowly i forgive

Points to ponder
:
Though the way seems to be good in our Eyes, we should commit those to LORD before implementing. Do not take immediate action rather be patient & pray and act accordingly to circumstances. At times we need to step on faith as an immediate action; hence we should have a closer walk with god to grasp the voice of Holy Spirit
. If peter would have been aware of scriptures he would not have ended up in such situation of Denial, however the bible says the scripture has to be fulfilled and we read Jesus telling the same in many places. So we should have the knowledge of GOD which is of knowing the scriptures to understand the mind of Christ.


Bottom Line
