I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6

In today's verse, we see Jesus making it very certain that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. To those who are trying various rituals and methods to go to heaven, Jesus is saying, "I am the Way." To those who access various intellectual sources such as books, the internet, etc., in order to find truth, Jesus is saying, "I am the Truth." In the middle of dryness and deadness, when we are really desperate for something fresh and living, Jesus is saying, "I am the Life."  Now, for us to find the Way to reach eternal Life, we must know the Truth. Only Truth can set us free, as Jesus said, "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

நானே வழியும் சத்தியமும் ஜீவனுமாயிருக்கிறேன், என்னாலேயல்லாமல் ஒருவனும் பிதாவினிடத்தில் வரான். யோவான் 14:6

இன்றைய வசனத்தில், இயேசுவே வழி, சத்தியம், ஜீவன் என்பதை மிக உறுதியாகச் சொல்வதைக் காண்கிறோம். பரலோகம் செல்ல பல்வேறு சடங்குகள் மற்றும் வழிமுறைகளை முயற்சி செய்பவர்களுக்கு, இயேசு, "நானே வழி" என்று கூறுகிறார். உண்மையைக் கண்டறிய, புத்தகங்கள், இணையம் போன்ற பல்வேறு அறிவுசார் ஆதாரங்களை தேடுபவர்களிடம், இயேசு, "நானே சத்தியம்" என்று கூறுகிறார். போராட்டத்துடன் ஒன்றும் செய்யமுடியாமையின் மத்தியில், உண்மையிலேயே புதிய வாழ்விற்கு ஆசைப்படும்போது, "நானே ஜீவன்" என்று இயேசு கூறுகிறார். இப்போது, நாம் நித்திய ஜீவனை அடைவதற்கான வழியைக் கண்டுபிடிக்க, நாம் சத்தியத்தை அறிந்திருக்க வேண்டும். "சத்தியத்தையும் அறிவீர்கள், சத்தியம் உங்களை விடுதலையாக்கும்." என்று இயேசு கூறியது போல் சத்தியம் மட்டுமே நமக்கு விடுதலை கொடுக்கும்.

Blog # 358 - "Trust in God's unchanging power"

Image
Who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us. 2 Corinthians 1:10. The Apostle Paul praises God for His power that delivered His children from death and dangers in the past, continues to do so in the present, and will do so forever. God is all-powerful. He is omnipotent. He is our deliverer and redeemer. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. When all human hope and help fail, He is there to assist when we call upon His name. There is no one else like Him to give us hope when all doors are closed. We need to be thankful to Him for the past miracles so that we can witness future ones. Even today, He is ready to help us if we place our trust in Him, especially in times of trouble. Do you trust in God's power to deliver and help you in times of trouble, just as He has done in the past? Psalm 18:2 says: "The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield a

Blog # Y2 001 - "Praise Deepens Our Relationship with God"

Image
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Psalm 106:1. We truly praise the Lord when we give Him thanks for what we have received from Him. Gratitude toward the Lord is an attitude of the heart that deepens our intimate relationship with God. Being thankful to God is an act of worship. King David says: “I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” (Psalm 34:1). The Apostle Paul encourages us to always thank the Lord for the grace of God given to us in Christ Jesus. Let us never be slow to return our praises to the Lord. He is worthy to be praised. Even when we are unfaithful, God remains faithful to His covenant, consistently showing us grace, mercy, and kindness. Are you deepening your relationship with God by giving Him thanks and praise for all He has done?   1 Thessalonians 5:18 says: “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” அல்லேலூயா, கர்த்தரைத் துதியுங்கள்; அவர் நல்ல

Blog # 359 - "Trust in God's mighty power"

Image
Behold, God is mighty, but despises no one; He is mighty in strength of understanding. Job 36:5. Today’s scripture speaks of how mighty our God is and of His strength and understanding. When trouble comes, we often focus more on the problem than on the mighty power of God , and we get discouraged easily. But God expects us to remember and praise Him, that He is all-powerful, strong, and mighty and praise Him. He has the power to control nature, the universe, and all of creation. He sent His only Son into the world to crush the enemy's head at the cross. King David could easily defeat the giant Goliath, revealing the power of God as greater than that of the enemy. We should always remember that our God is the Lord of Hosts, and who is victorious. When we have faith in God and His might, we will see miracles in our lives. Are you remembering to focus on God's mighty power and strength in times of trouble, trusting in His ability to bring victory and miracles into your life?   Ps

Blog # Y2 002 - "Choose God's Will Over the World"

Image
And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. 1 John 2:17. There is a clear contrast between the two statements in this verse. Those who follow God's will live forever, while those who chase temporary worldly things will lose their life. The believers who please the world will lose their reward. The choice before us is whether to do God's will or satisfy our fleshly desires. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, we are called to follow His words and live with the mind of Christ, striving to do His will. However, if after receiving salvation we fall into worldly temptations—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—we will not enter into heaven. Many of us desire to do God's will, but are not willing to sacrifice what is necessary to please Him. Are you willing to sacrifice worldly desires in order to follow God's will and receive eternal life? Romans 12:2 says: "And do not be conformed to

Blog # 357 - "Sow peace to reap righteousness."

Image
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. James 1:18. Today’s verse speaks about the fruit of righteousness. It is the peacemaker who sows seeds of peace to reap a harvest of righteousness. The Apostle James uses the word "peace" here to refer to the right relationships among people. He desires peace in the church and among believers, knowing that peace is the only environment in which righteousness can flourish. God loves peacemakers. The wisdom of this world produces trouble, while the wisdom from above produces peace among people. God-trusting, self-sacrificing heavenly wisdom is the source of peace, gentleness, mercy, and righteousness. Are you sowing seeds of peace to reap a harvest of righteousness? Matthew 5:9 says: "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called sons of God." நீதியாகிய கனியானது சமாதானத்தை நடப்பிக்கிறவர்களாலே சமாதானத்திலே விதைக்கப்படுகிறது. யாக்கோபு 3:18. இன்றைய வசனம் நீதியாகிய கனியைப் பற்றிப் பேசுகிறது.

Blog # 360 - "Enemies flee when prayers rise"

Image
The Lord has heard my supplication; The Lord will receive my prayer. Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly troubled; Let them turn back and be ashamed suddenly. Psalm 6:9-10. Today, we witness the power of prayer and how the enemy trembles and flees from the children of God when they pray. This verse illustrates how King David prayed to God with faith, and God answered by defeating the enemies who came against him, putting them to shame before him. Similarly, in our lives, when we cry out to God, He will answer our supplications, and we will see our enemies flee from us. God will put to shame those who rise against us when we seek His face with great faith. Do you trust in the power of prayer, believing that God will answer your cries and cause your enemies to flee?   Psalm 50:15 says: “Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” கர்த்தர் என் விண்ணப்பத்தைக் கேட்டார்; கர்த்தர் என் ஜெபத்தை ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளுவார். என் பகைஞர் எல்லாரும் வெட்கி மிகவும்

Blog # Y2 008 - "How to listen God's voice Daily"

Image
Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” Whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left. Isaiah 30:21. This verse explains how to hear and follow God's voice. God speaks to us in various ways, and we can prepare by being still and clearing away distractions. This "quiet time" practice helps us focus on Christ. The more time we spend in His presence, the better we’ll recognize His voice. Prayerfully reading the Bible is the best way to do this. When we surrender to God and invite Him to speak, we can hear His gentle voice. God wants us to rely on Him and listen to His direction in everything we do. He desires for us to become all that He created us to be. He has a plan to guide us there, but we must be obedient and follow His leading. Are you spending quiet time in God's presence to better recognize His voice and follow His guidance in your life?  Proverbs 3:6 says: "In all your ways acknowledge Him, An
