QUOTES ON TOP

“I want something really worthwhile to live for. I want to invest this one life of mine as wisely as possible, in the place that yields the richest profits to the world and me…wherever it is, I want it to be God’s choice for me and not my own… Christ said, “He that would find his life shall lose it” and proved the truth of this divine paradox at Calvary. I want Him to lead me and His Holy Spirit to fill me.” – Betty Stam

DO NOT BE AFRAID, FOR YOUR PRAYER IS HEARD

“…Do not be afraid… for your prayer is heard…” – Luke 1:13

Zacharias and Elizabeth were both righteous before God walking in all the commandments of the Lord blameless. There were old and had no child. They might have prayed for that a lot. One day God sent His word through an angel to Zacharias and told him that his prayer was heard.

Soon Elizabeth conceived and God gave them a boy child who later becomes a prophet of God.  Elizabeth conveyed her feeling in Luke 1:25, “Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people.”

Elizabeth was disgraced among people because of her barrenness. God heard their prayers and dealt with her wonderfully and removed the disgrace from her life.

Even today you might be praying for some blessing for a long time and might have gone weary. Today Jesus Christ is promising you that your prayer was heard and He will bless you very soon.
In the year 2010 my mom got affected by cancer and we do not know what to do. At times we thought that she will die as we were filled with a great fear. We sat at God’s presence and prayed for her a lot. After much prayers God asked us to go for surgery and we took our mom to a big hospital for surgery. Graciously God heard our prayers and the surgery was successful. My mom went through several treatments after the surgery for nearly one year and God helped my mom and gave His strength so that she can bear the toughness of the treatment.

Finally in the year 2011 doctors checked my mom again and told that there were no signs of cancer in her body. Also doctors asked her to be cautious for next five years because they told that a cancer patient has a highest possibility for getting it again within five years.

My mother trusted in God and so she didn’t bothered about their statement. But few weeks ago she felt something strange in her body again. She felt that she got some problem again and so she went to a doctor for diagnosis. Doctor heard her patiently and asked her to take some tests to confirm whether it is cancer or nothing.

Once the doctor told like that a great fear gripped my mom’s heart. She doesn’t want to get the cancer again and so she prayed to God a lot with tears. She cried continuously for a week and then she took tests.

The day to meet the doctor arrived. On that day my mom woke up early in the morning and went to God’ presence. She had no words to pray but she cried. She told God to take her life if He wants but not to give cancer to her. She wept badly and then she went to the bus stand to board a bus to the clinic.

As she was walking towards a bus suddenly a cover page of a Christian magazine flew and fell in front of her feet. She looked into it and in the bold letters it was written, “Fear not, your prayers is heard.”

Immediately God spoke to her saying that her prayers were heard and the report will be normal. Hearing God’s word my mom’s heart was filled with God’s peace. As God’s said the report was normal and the doctor told that there was nothing to worry and most importantly there were no signs of cancer in my mom’s body. Lord who has done this miracle in our life will do the same in your life too.

My dear young friends, you might be also going through a toughest path in your life. You might have a huge debt and you might worry that your life will sink down because of that debt. You might be barren today or you might not have any blessings that you desired to have in your life.

Whatever be your problem, do not worry. God has seen your tears and He had heard your prayers. Soon God will do justice and He will bless you richly. You will bear a child soon. God will bless the works of your hands and surely your debts will be cleared. You will not die in your disease. Your family life will not come to an end. You will not be put to shame.

All the above blessings will surely happen in your life very soon because Jesus Christ has heard your prayers. He had seen your tears and He will bless you surely. You will glorify God very soon for the miracle He is going to perform in your life. God bless you.
