“The Triumphal entry into Jerusalem”

Dear all,

 

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

 

Word: “The Triumphal entry into Jerusalem”

21 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.” Matthew 21:1-3

The Coming of Zion’s King

Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. Zechariah 9:9

Thought:

The triumphal entry of Jesus was predicted by Zechariah more than 500 years before it happened. Just as this prophecy was fulfilled when Jesus came to earth, the prophesies of his second coming are certain to come true. We are to be ready for his return, for he is coming!

Don’t let the cares of this life weigh us down. Be ready;

Prepare to meet your God, O Israel Amos 4:12

Be strong and glad!

Clear Vision to See Things the way LORD Jesus sees them

Clear Vision to See Things the way LORD Jesus sees them
Why did Jesus touch the man a second time before he could see?

This miracle was not difficult for Jesus, but he chose to do it in stages. Jesus asked him “Can you see anything now?” “Yes”, he said, “I see people, but I can’t see them very clearly. They look like trees walking around.”
Interestingly, this healed man expressed his true status to LORD Jesus.
Are we healed completely by the healing power of LORD Jesus or still do we have any inner wounds? If our answer is yes, we need to pray for his “second healing touch” in our hearts.

Are we able to see souls with his eyes or are we still seeing them like trees walking around?

Mark 8: 25 says that, Jesus placed his hands on the man’s eyes again and his eyes were opened. His sight was completely restored, and he could see everything clearly.
We need to understand God’s heart for the people and their souls. God created mankind as eternal beings.
Let us make a list of all of our unsaved colleagues and family members and pray for their salvation. I strongly believe that, God is more than able to save their souls.

One man Elijah prayed earnestly and God answered his prayers (James 5: 17). It is our responsibility to protect them with our true prayers like a fence around a new plant .
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+5%3A17&version=NKJV
How is our prayer life? Are we spending quality time in the presence of God every day? I personally believe that, nothing is more important than carrying the presence of God wherever He leads us. God has called us to fix our eyes on Jesus. Let us do some self-analysis and make corrections wherever required.
Let us ask God to give a total restoration and a great revival for our spiritual eyes to focus clearly, to see the people and their souls like Him.
A backslider cannot pray and a prayer warrior cannot dwell in sin.

Are we caught up with materialism? Who/what is ruling our hearts?

Dear Friends in Christ,

Wish you all a Christ centered Christmas. Remember Christ Jesus is the reason for this season!

Word:

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. Luke 21: 33-34

Thought: Are we caught up with materialism? Who/what is ruling our hearts?

If we replace Christ with anything else that becomes idol worship.

Our role model is Christ and He lived a humble and holy life. Do we have humbleness in our hearts?

Today is the day of Salvation. Turn to Jesus and He will change our hearts.

Wish you all a Merry Christmas and a blessed new-year 2016.
Be strong and glad!

My soul clings to You

Leave a reply

Dear all,
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Psalms 63: 1 -8
O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water.2 Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your loving kindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips. When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches, For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy. My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.

Thought:
In these Bible verses King David reviewed all the ways God had already helped him, and he greeted the next day with songs of praise. In our quiet moments or wakeful nights, make it a point to count examples of God’s faithfulness to us. Doing so is far more likely to give us rest than any other items we might count!

Jesus is the Way
Thought: Jesus is the way to the Father – This is one of the most basic and important passages in Scripture. How can we know the way to God? Only through Christ Jesus. Trust Jesus to take you to the Father, and all the blessings in Christ Jesus of being God’s child will be yours.

Jesus among His Disciples – Peace be with you

Leave a reply

Dear all,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Jesus among His Disciples
19 So when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 20 And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you. John 20: 19-21
Full Chapter: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2020&version=NIV;NASB
Thought: Is there any area you are not believing in God? Is there any area in your life that Jesus would say “stop doubting and believe”? Is there something you have not seen – yet want to believe today?

Precious blood of Christ Jesus

Leave a reply

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10
For you know that it is not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. …..Through Him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. (1 Peter 1: 18-21)

Thought:
It is through His death on the cross as God’s perfect sacrifice for sin and His resurrection three days later that we can now have eternal life if we believe in him. The fact that God Himself has provided the offering that atones for our sin is part of the glorious good news of the gospel.

Do not be afraid

Leave a reply

Dear all,

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10

5
Word: But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Luke 2: 10

Thought:

There is no one who never fears! We all fear. The incarnation of Jesus brought down God’s presence to His people. “Immanuel… God with us!” (Mt 1:22,23). Apostle John puts this as, “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (Jn 1:14). Here then is “the” prime reason why we need not fear: God is with us! (Psa 118:6; Heb 13:6)
