Try Jesus in your storm

Author: Jaisam Daniel

You are the One who wiped my Tears
You are the One who said I am with you
Jesus is the One who wiped my Tears
Jesus is the One who said I am with you.

I Love you Father! I Love you Lord

When I was left alone, no one to help; He was with me to Say I will not leave you nor forsake you.
When I said I am weak to face this world, He said I am your strength.

When people took me for granted, He is the one who said you are important for me.
When everyone made fun out of my compassion, He said that is what I made you for.

When I do not know who to look forward, He stepped in and comforted saying I am your wonderful counselor.
When I realized that there is no one in the world to give a Hug of my mother after her death, He hugged me with gracious Love.

When I said I made a mistake, He forgave me and gave perseverance to face the consequences of it.
When my own friends whom I loved mocked me with out understanding my feelings, He was the one who offered his shoulders to rest upon.

When people wanted me to change for them, Jesus Loved me for who I am for him.
When I was worthless failing continuously. He provided me courage that I can still carry on with Hope.

When I doubted him more than 1000 times, even after tasting his love 10000 times he still said you are mine, and I love you with an ever-lasting love.
When I ignored him to make my own ways, He patiently waited for my return. Often I come back with great wounds of emotional trauma and pains. He was able to heal my wounds.

When I was about to Sin, He gave his strength to overcome the temptation.
When I realize the new life I am living with him, I just thank him for his cross.

When I looked forward for encouragement, He was the first to tell me, you can do it with me.
When people loved me for what I give them, He offered his Love unconditionally.

When I longed for living a Holy Life, He told me that I have already broken the power of sin through the cross and gave his life to me.

When I bow before him in my knees and cry you are my everything, He offered me his heavenly peace, which no one in this world could give.

When I say I want to see you, He said Trust me you will be with me forever.
When I expected a Perfect Model Life to live in this World, I could see no one else but you.

Jesus is the One, I Long to see face to face.

My Beloved, If he can wipe away my tears, he can help you too. Just kneel down and seek the Lord, he is so good. He will never leave you alone to face your giants. He will be with you and help you. He will walk with you until the end of tunnel.

Jesus said “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.”  John 14:18

Same Devil, Same Deception, But still…

I have always wondered about one thing after many years of walk with our Lord Jesus Christ, no matter how hard I try to reason myself intellectually away from God’s word I fail, If the word of God says something and I reason with my 1350 grams of brain and do things in my own way, I fail 10 out of 10 times. Have you realized any time that how great God would be if he can create an universe with billions of people, he is very powerful beyond our imagination and I truly believe we cannot comprehend an infinite God with our finite life unless he choose to reveal himself to us. So The Bible words of the living God matters most for you and me to follow his ways of righteousness and live a life of abundant blessing in this world.

We can’t ignore our Enemy if we want to win the Battle?

Many people today believe in God, but not in the Devil, Bible is one book which talks about the origin of this Devil. The Bible calls him with many names as Satan, Lucifer, Beelzebub, the prince of this world, the god of this age, the ruler of the kingdom of the air, Ancient Serpent, your enemy (At least 100 times Bible talks about this Devil). Is it right to ignore the Devil completely when the Bible says he is your enemy?  No my beloved we cannot because Jesus talked about this devil many times when he walked in this world. In fact the Bible says in 1 John 3:8 says “The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.” as Jesus Mission statement in the earth.

“Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” I Peter 5:8

Like many think or portrayed in media and films he is neither funny nor does he come to you with horns or in wild dresses people wear during the Halloween, but as the Bible describes in 2 Corinthians 11:14 “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.” Yes he always deceives people hiding himself with lies and his best tool today is making you and I believe that, there is no devil in the world or there is no evil in the world. And he convinces intellectual people that truth and lie or relative and there is nothing called absolute truth. Today he works 24*7 convincing people that there is nothing called Sin in this world all are mistakes done in circumstances. My friends he is a deceiver and you can’t beat him with your brain, so we need God’s word which gives us the clear understanding of who he is and how God has defeated him, so we as his children need not fear him or deceived by him.

John 8:32 - Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

But interestingly the devil has not changed his deception or his ways, but we humans still fall for his lies and cunningness the same way Adam and Eve where fooled. Today let us see quickly see some designs of the devil he used to deceive people:

1. Questioning the Word of God:

The Bible clearly says that the fall of Mankind was triggered with this simple question the devil asked “Did God Really Say?” (Genesis 3:1). Turn around you and see, like never before the authority of God’s word (The Bible) is being questioned, because the devil knows if he can convince you to doubt God’s word, be careful he can easily separate you from God.

2. Making Man believe that Food is everything he needs to live:

Satan came to Jesus and tempted when he walked in this world and asked “The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”(Matthew 4:3). Eradicate poverty from this world is the slogan everywhere, it is a good thing but one of the deception devil works is making us forget that God created us as spiritual beings. So Jesus answered Satan “‘Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God”. Never forget following God is the only way we can live life of abundance and reach back to him in heaven.

3. Tempting him to worship him:

Satan tempted Jesus too with these words “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” (Matthew 4:9). God created this world for us and never intended to create religions in this world to fight among us but he desired a relationship with his creation (you and me). He still longs to have a fellowship with you. Jesus answered the devil “Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only”.

4. Tempting you to stop doing the will of God:

Once Jesus foretold to his disciples of how is going to die on the cross and will come back to Life, Suddenly one of his dear disciple Peter said, Lord you should not go to the cross, Jesus did not answered Peter but Satan who is behind those word like this “Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”(Matthew 16:23). Satan always wants to stop you from doing God’s will in your life.

Like this I can keep on going by explaining the design of the devil to separate us from our creator. He does that to permanently remove us from his presence. Be encouraged Jesus said all authority is given to me and he has given his authority to us, so we need not fear the devil.

Finally this is what Jesus said about the Devil

“You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” - John 8:44

Prayer:

Lord help us daily not fall for the temptation of the devil; Help me to walk by your words pleasing you day by day. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

It is Ok to come back to God

As the world is going through tough economic times, we see and hear people who thought they are secure, losing their security in a moment’s time. Today I read that a father of five kids and with a wonderful wife shot all his family members and finally killed himself after he lost his Job. Over the past few months we heard that many wonderful lives were taken away by this deep depression which is holding many nations in to a shadow of darkness. If you are not careful this fear will grip even you.  As our hearts goes to these precious lives, I want to let you know with love this Good news. There are Lots and Lots of Hope for you and me if we see above to the creator of heaven and earth rather than seeing down always to this world and trusting mortal man.

Jesus the eternal Son of God, when he walked in this world used a wonderful parable to emphasize “it is OK to come back to God” in Luke 15:11-21. He said he came to this world to seek and save the Lost, No matter how lost or far away you are from God you can come back to him.

Jesus has promised “whoever comes to me I will never drive away” John 6:37

How we go away from God:

  •  There were two sons for this loving father, the younger son said to his father, I don’t need you any more just give me your blessing I will go away from you and live in my own way. Have you ever said this to God? I don’t need you. I will live my life away from you. Please don’t forget he gave you this life to you.
  •  The young son went away from the father as far he can go and lived a sinful life and spent away all his processions with friends who ran away from him when he did not have money. Do you feel that you are living life very far away from God? Have you spoiled your soul and life? Do you see people going away from your life because you lost your Job?

Famine came in the Land:

There was a famine in that land and this son was without food and starving for his basic needs. This famine made him to realize that he has a father who is rich and loving. Are you starving for survival my dear friend, Is this famine hitting you hard? Are you concerned about your family’s survival? Do you fear whether your marriage will survive?

Coming back to God:

  • This young son came to his senses and realized how good it was when he was with his father. Understood that the father is the source for all his blessings.
  • He confessed to the father that he has sinned and came back to his father. When his father saw him in the distant he ran towards him and gave a big hug and kissed him and restored him.

Luke 15:20 – So he got up and went to his father. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.”

My dear friends this is the only place in the whole Bible it is written that “God Ran”, Jesus expressed how deep he loves his people. Please do not stay back and take wrong choices. The Devil wants to kill and destroy your life. Take one small step to walk towards God; you will be received by God with a great Hug and Kiss.

Do you have questions about coming back to God?

* I am an atheist will God accept me, Yes he will
* When I had everything I rebelled against God, will he accept me. Yes He will
* I am worst sinner will he accept me. Yes He will
* I have mocked and scoffed God always will he accept me. Yes He Will
* I am crook will God accept me. Yes He Will

My dear beloved he will accept you as you are, just turn back and ask his help, He is your father.

It is OK; it is OK to come back to God! He will restore and rebuild your life.

Jesus said “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” - Matthew 11:28

Prayer:
My heavenly father, I humbly come to you as I am and I confess I have sinned against you. Please forgive me and accept me as your child. I thank you for sending your son Jesus to die for my sins. Help me to live a Holy life. Please come in to my life and help me in these tough situations.

Amen
Note: Please contact me if you have any questions or doubts or take help from your local pastor.

Following Jesus Does not mean you will not face the Storm!

The Bible records an wonderful event in our Master’s Life, One day Jesus asked his Disciples to follow him, they all boarded along with him in their boat obeying the word of Jesus by following him. With out any warning a  great storm struck their boat. And the disciples cried to Jesus “Lord Save us we are going to drown”.  Many times we think following Jesus is bed of roses and we are on high way to heaven with out any problems. Not so my beloved let us see what happens in this portion of the scripture Matthew 8:23-27.

“Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”  - Matthew 8:23-25

Following Jesus…

These disciples Just followed Jesus like us following him, because they trusted him and obeyed his word. All of these disciples left their old way of life, some left their fishing Jobs to follow Jesus, some left their Tax collecting Job to follow Jesus, Some left their boats to follow Jesus, Some left their parents to follow Jesus. What have you left behind to follow Jesus, I have left my old way of sinful life to follow Jesus, some of us have left their age old traditions to follow Jesus, In some countries people are even risking their very life to follow Jesus. Like the disciples when we choose to follow Jesus we choose to take his new Life which he has offered even if we have to pay a cost by saying good bye’s to some of our old way of Life. These disciples were filled with great Joy because they were following Jesus.

With out warning a Storm Struck:

Storms in life does not come with warning, Yes here also a great storm hit their boat, Are you today facing storms in your Life which came unexpected in to your safe journey with Jesus?, But my dear friends you need not worry, Just check whether you have the Master in your Boat. The disciples had the savior in their Boat. If you are reading this, who does not have Jesus in your Heart, Please ask him to come in to your Life, He want to board your Life’s Journey to carry you to the other end. He has prepared a glorious place for us in Heaven. But if you have Jesus in your Life, Fear not my brothers and sisters Just call unto him.

Are you drowning call him now

Prayer is the way to call him and let him know that you need help from him to stop this storm in your Life. Is the Economy storm threatening your life boat, Is the storm in your Marriage threatening your family, Is the doubt and fear storm threatening you, Is the fear of losing Job threatening you, Call the Master now.  Call his name Jesus, his name literally means savior. He will deliver you.

“Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.  He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. - Psalm 91: 14-15

So like every one in this world we will also face storms in our Life, But we need not fear as long as he is in our boat. When the disciples cried to Jesus for help he stood up and rebuked the storm. And the sea was calm. He will also stop the storms in your Life that is threatening your very existence. Fear not my beloved. He has all authorities is given to him.

He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!” Matthew 8:26-27

Then What does it mean to Follow Jesus?: It Means

* He is with you in the Storm (He will never leave you nor forsake you)

* His Grace is sufficient for you

* He has the Power and Authority to protect you and carry you.

Like the disciples if you ask Who is this who can stop storms in my Life, He is the Son of God Jesus, The author of Life. who came to this world to save us.
 
With Love

My Presence will go with You

We wish you and your family a Joyful, Peaceful and Prosperous New Year 2009. Let God almighty lead you in to his pastures and give you rest. If the troubles of 2008 has not brought you down, It has made you strong. So Cross in to this new year with Confidence and Joy that we have Our Lord going before us as he has promised.

“My Presence will go with you” Exodus 33:14

It was December of 1776 AD, one of the coldest winters, General George Washington led his small army fighting for the American War of Independence. His soldiers mostly consist of peasants, they were up against the mighty British Army. After facing many defeats Washington’s army retreated back in to country side. The soldiers were forced to live with out food and warm clothing. Now, more than ever, a victory was desperately needed.  He had a Choice to make whether to cross the ice-choked Delaware river to go for his victory or shrink back by watching his army disintegrate before his own eyes.

George Washington a man of Prayer decided to cross over with great hope,  on December 26th won his first major battle against the British at Trenton, NJ, From here there was no turning back. He went on to become the First American President. Last summer we visited this place where Washington Crossed the Delaware river called Washington Crossing, NJ.

There is Hope! Lots of Hope for New year

May be today you are going through tough times seeing no hope of the new Year 2009, God will go with you this new year. As he has promised “My Presence will go with you”. Be of good cheer my brothers and sisters the God who carried you until now will also carry you in to this new year.

Before starting this new year, I prayed this simple prayer like prophet Moses “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.” - Exodus 33:15. So I have crossed to this new year 2009 with confidence and hope in him. If God is for us who can be against us. We do not know what new challenges will come against this new year, But do not worry the Lord of all creation is walking with you. He has promised ”I will never leave you nor forsake you” - Joshua 1:5. He holds the future in his hands.

Jesus said “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Just Let us Pray: Lord come with me and guide me in to this new year.

As Promised he will come and carry us until the day we reach our permanent home with him in heaven.
 
With Love
