Dear Father,
Please cover me with your Holy spirit so that only your word may be proclaimed.
open our hearts so that we may hear your living words and receive your grace.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God,
because God is love.
What is the greatest and deepest love?.
It is the love of God.
I have been living for last 40 years looking for only the worldly sinful desires.
The result of that living was like a dead man who has no spiritual life. Suddenly I have realized that I was a sinner at the presence of God.
I have been disobedient to God's teachings and led the life of my own way filled with my physical desires and temptations.
So, I fell on my knees and confessed all my sins and prayed for the forgiveness with tears dripping. God warmly embraced my full of sinful soul and comforted me without punishment and told me,
"My beloved son, how much have you suffered with pain by forsaking me and led the life of worldly sins?.
I am so grateful now that you came to me.
Put down all those sinful heavy lord and I will give you a comfortable resting place for you to rest."
Hallelujah!!!!
I praise God who accepted us with love and lead us to the life of light.
Mathew 11:28
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
We are carrying very heavy burden of life.
Why those burden of worldly life is so tiring and dark and make us sorrowful?.
Why are we living the life of committing endless sins of hatred, madness and violence?. Sometime we experience both mental and physical breakdown due to the burden of sinful, dark, and sorrowful wounds suffered while we were living in the past.
All of you who gathered hear today to worship our Lord has been chosen by God and you are both priceless and very worthy people.
God is with us at this very moment and talking to us.
"All of you who is carrying heavy burden and working hard, come to me and I will give you a resting place".
Anybody who believes that Jesus Christ died on the Cross for our sins and resurrected after three days from the dead and receive Him as our Savior are no longer the children of Satan and don't have to be the slave of the darkness.
The sadness won't rule our lives and we are no longer slave to the rules of the world and physical desires because we are the children of God's love and children of God's light.
Romans 8:5-6
Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the spirit have their minds set on what the spirit desires.
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the spirit is life and peace.
Whoever believes that Jesus Christ is his savior is the one who is born again. Whoever born again through the spirit of God will have peace and life.
Slave to the physical desire is death.
John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
God is the light.
God said He is the 'light of the world. Anybody who follows me will never walk in darkness and will gain the light of life".
My beloved brethren, I hope you will have full of God's light of life.
I pray in the name of Jesus that none of you will have the darkness of life. Hallelujah !!!!!
Let us lift up our thanks, praises, and honor to our God who saved us from the darkness and death and who leads us to the path of light and new life.
Isaiah 60:20
Your sun will never set again, and your moon will wane no more; the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end.
God said the Sun will never set, Moon will never wane as long as you believe in God.
Because the light of God is within us and He is leading us to His light.
We are always in Jesus' light and walking in His light. God also said our days of sorrow will end because the sorrows dwell in the darkness.
We are the children of the light and the darkness will never control us.
Ephesians 5:8
For you were once darkness, but now you are light of the Lord. Live as children of light.
God's light within us will overcome our deep and dark sorrow. The darkness no longer control us and it will be disappear from us. Hallelujah !!!!
Malachi 4:2
But for you who revere my name, the Sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays.
And you will go out and frolic like well fed calves.
The righteousness will rise to who praise God. This ray of righteousness has healing power and it will brighten those who praise God and heal his darkness, pain and harms and run around like those well fed calves out of stable.
I believe that God's healing power is upon us who are gathered here to praise Him and that we will all be healed and restored. Hallelujah !!!
At this very moment, we firmly believe that the ray of Jesus' healing power will completely wipe out all our pains, harms and all sorts of deceases from us and also believe that the rays of Jesus' healing light will free us from the darkness which has been troubling us for long time.
Let us pray in loud voice.
O, God our Father,
O, holy Father,
Please reside within our painful heart.
Please direct your ray of healing toward us.
Please heal our deceases and restore our health and keep us pray all the time.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen
Let us sing ' How great thou art'.
Let us sing from our heart to God who gave us the life and lead us to salvation.
O Lord my God! when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made,
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed:
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul! my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze:
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul! my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin:
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul! my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, my God, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee:
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul! my Savior God, to Thee:
how great Thou art , how great Thou art!
Let us pray.
