He` s the same unchanging God

Woman miraculously healed when the handkerchief touched by Bro.DGS. Dhinakaran was sent to her.  

So that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him(Paul) were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them. (Acts 19:12)

Through the Fire

By Greg Laurie

But he knows the way that I take;  when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold (Job 23:10)

God specializes in putting us in situations where only He can delivers us. That way, we can't "thank our lucky stars" or compliment ourselves on our own cleverness or resourcefulness. Rather, we must say, "Only God could have done this." The Lord wants to receive the glory for what He does. And He clearly says in Scripture that He will not give His glory to another (see Isaiah 42:8).

It reminds us of a man who knew something about suffering, whose very name, in fact, is synonymous with the word. I am speaking, of course, of Job. Here was a man who lost his children, his home, and everything he owned, including his health.

Job had a lot of questions, the same questions that many of us have. He said, "Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, that I might come to His seat! I would present my case before Him, and fill my mouth with arguments. I would know the words which He would answer me, and understand what He would say to me" (Job 23:3-5).

Job honestly admitted what he was struggling with. Then he added what would become a classic statement of faith: "But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold" (Job 23:10). Job was saying, "I don't know what's is going on. I don't know why God has allowed these things to happen. But I know this: when I am tested, I will come forth as gold." That was God's objective for Job. And it's His objective for you, too.

PEACE FOLLOWS THE JUST

By Paul Dhinakaran

The peace of God surpasses all understanding.

How does this peace come into us? The Bible says, “Righteousness and peace kiss each other” (Psalm 85:10). In Isaiah 48:22 we read, “‘There is no peace,’ says the Lord, ‘for the wicked.’" But when we hold on to righteousness and holiness and seek the presence of the living God, He makes His divine peace overflow in us by His glory.

The Lord Jesus has shed His own blood in order to transform your body as His temple. The Scripture says, “The blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin” (I John 1:7).

This day, the Lord wants to dwell in You and transform you into His temple. Plead with the Lord saying, "Lord, cleanse me with Your precious blood.” He will make divine peace to pursue you. This peace shall follow you all through your life. The Scripture says, “Consider the blameless, observe the upright; there is a future for the man of peace” (Psalm 37:37).

In Chennai, there was a person by name Rev. Vedakan of the Church of South India. He was very dear to my father D.G.S. Dhinakaran (late). He was a righteous man. When his moment of death arrived, he said to his son, “Ask the Bishop to come and meet me.” When the son contacted the Bishop over the phone and made this request, he promised to come at 5 O’ clock the next day. On hearing that, this pastor said, “I am going to leave this world at 4 O’ clock tomorrow. In that case, what’s he going to do by coming at 5 O’ clock?” As he said, the next day exactly at 4 O’ clock, he said, “Here, the chariot has come” and closed his eyes. He went up to heaven.

Yes, the Lord will give grace and peace in abundance to a righteous man.

The Bible says, “The kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” (Romans 14:17). When we thirst for the righteousness of Christ, we shall surely receive it. Furthermore, we shall reap a harvest of immeasurable peace and abundant joy.

Is God Speaking to You?

by Henry Blackaby

We usually want God to speak to us so He can give us a devotional thought to make us feel good all day. If you want the God of the universe to speak to you, you need to be ready for Him to reveal to you what He is doing where you are. In the Scripture, God is not often seen coming and speaking to people just for conversation’s sake. He is always up to something. When God speaks to you through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, the church or in some other way, He has a purpose in mind for your life.

When God spoke to Abram (Genesis 12), what was God about to do? He was about to begin to build a nation. Notice the timing of God. Why did God speak to Abram when He did? Because it was then that God wanted to start to build a nation. The moment Abram knew what God was about to do, he had to make an adjustment in his life to God. He had to follow immediately what God said.

The moment God speaks to you is the very moment God wants you to respond. Some of us assume that we have the next few months to think about it and to try to decide whether this is really God’s timing. The moment God speaks to you is His timing. That is why He chooses to speak when He does. He speaks to His servant when He is ready to move.

North Korea imprisons 30,000 Christians!

Kim Jong Un, the current leader of North Korea, is guilty of the imprisonment and torture of Christians and their entire families.

As Christians we have a choice. We can remain silent, say an occasional prayer, or stand up against such atrocities.

The Voice of the Martyrs invites you to take part in a new ministry campaign. Sign a letter to Kim Jong Un, and let him know that we are committed to standing with our Christian brothers and sisters who are suffering in North Korea’s notorious concentration camps.

Thinking of You

By Greg Laurie

When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?

—Psalm 8:3–4

One night, probably when David was watching over his sheep, he looked up at the incredible stars and made this statement: "When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?" (Psalm 8:3-4).

It's incredible to think that the Creator of the universe, the Almighty God who knows every star by name, would care about us. And not only does He care about humanity as a whole, but He also cares about us as individuals. Not only does He care about us as individuals, but He also knows about every detail of our lives. God even knows the very thoughts that we think. Jesus said, "Your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him" (Matthew 6:8).

Psalm 40:5 tells us, "Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; and Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered." Psalm 115:12 says, "The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us."

So even when family and friends have forgotten about you, know this: the Lord is thinking about you. The Lord cares about you and takes an interest in even the smallest details of your life. They might seem trivial to someone else — but not to God. If it concerns you, then it concerns Him.
