AMAZING GRACE....... (1)
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, PEACE and His grace be with us all..... The Bible says God 'has blessed us with every spiritual blessing'[Ephesians 1:3] One of the reasons we don't recognise the blessings of God in our lives is that we confuse the means of delivery with the source. If something doesn't miraculously fall into our lap, we think it didn't come from God. But we must always remember that they are only the carriers of blessing, while He is the source of it (see Psalm 31:19) When we pray Thubden-1 'For the living Spiritual Fathers'..... ruling the Holy Church of God in the four corners of the earth: our holy honourable and blessed Catholicos Moran Mar Baselios Marthoma Paulose II Bava Thirumeni should be upheld as God's messenger everytime. Each child of God is unique: 'Before you were born I set you apart'[Jeremiah 1:5] We need to know that God has a mission for each one of us, but the environment and human experience in shaping who we are and how we think, depends on the choices we make in each moments of our life is a personal testimony..... Ultimately, every Orthodox christian prays for the 'Gift of Perfection' so pleasing to thee, and so worthy of Thy divinity. It is not how long OR how we lead our lives, but through FAITH and how it is closed by the Divine. Again, pray to the Supreme Good to make us worthy to praise and glorify Thy name, now and at all times, for ever and ever, Amen

Fight your battles with Prayers -
Commemoration of God Inspired Victory - [Exodus 17:8] Moses said to Joshua,"Choose some men for us and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand"- (v.11) So Joshua fought as Moses had ordered, and the Israelites were winning, but whenever Moses lowered his hands the Amalekites prevailed.......
(v12) Aaron and Hur held up his hands, on both sides until the sun set - And they won the war; LORD said to Moses: "Write down this as a reminder in a book and recite it in the hearing of Joshua"- An alter was built there and called it "The banner of the LORD" +
The Difference Between Samson And SAMUEL - [1 Samuel 12:12]
Samson repeatedly dishonoured the Lord by his actions and his lifestyle. That's because he had no regard for God's honour. Whereas, Samuel said to his people, 'The LORD your God was your king' - Honouring God was the highest priority.
The Lesson for everyone steps behind a pulpit is this: Their motive should be to make God look good, not to boost the self-ego with flattering propaganda....... !
The truth is that without the power of God's indwelling Spirit, none of us have what it takes to do the job, and we must never forget that.......
The Bible says,'For the LORD is the God of Knowledge; and by Him actions are weighed'- (1Samuel 2:3) - Samson did not realise that the Lord had departed from him (Judg.16:20)
ST Paul admonishes the Corinth Church - [1 Corinthians 13:13]
When Paul wrote of knowing "fully" well that he was referring to when we must see Christ face to face. God gives believers spiritual gifts for their lives on earth in order to build up, serve, and strengthen fellow Christians. The spiritual gifts are for the church. Today, people are still confused about love..... The greatest of all human qualities is an attribute of God himself (1 John 4:8) - 'Love Is Indispensable In Life'
Faith - The foundation of stead fast TRUST in God and content of His messages -
Hope - The unswerving attitude and FOCUS towards selfless service to others -
Love - When faith and hope are in line, we are free to love extravagantly -
<<< DOES OUR FAITH FULLY EXPRESS ITSELF IN LOVING OTHERS.....??>>>
