"Five 'I's for Each of Us"

Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ Isaiah 41:10

In this world, we fear everything happening around us. Today's verse is a great promise of comfort with five 'I's for each of us: 'I' am with you; 'I' am your God; 'I' will strengthen you; 'I' will help you; and 'I' will uphold you. What a great, loving, and caring God we have. God is bigger than all our problems. He wants us to trust Him, knowing that He is enough, no matter what. He is there for us in our difficult times to strengthen us. In Psalm 46:1, King David says, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." 

நீ பயப்படாதே, நான் உன்னுடனே இருக்கிறேன்; திகையாதே, நான் உன் தேவன்; நான் உன்னைப் பலப்படுத்தி உனக்குச் சகாயம்பண்ணுவேன்; என் நீதியின் வலதுகரத்தினால் உன்னைத் தாங்குவேன். ஏசாயா 41: 10

இந்த உலகில், நம்மைச் சுற்றி நடக்கும் எல்லாவற்றுக்கும் நாம் பயப்படுகிறோம்.  இன்றைய வசனம் நம் ஒவ்வொருவருக்கும் ஐந்து 'நான்' என்ற ஆறுதலின் சிறந்த வாக்குறுதியைக் கொடுக்கிறது : 'நான்' உன்னுடன் இருக்கிறேன்;  'நான்' உன் தேவன்;  'நான்' உன்னைப் பலப்படுத்துவேன்;  'நான்' உனக்கு உதவுகிறேன்;  'நான்' உன்னை ஆதரிப்பேன்.  எவ்வளவு பெரிய, அன்பான, அக்கரையுள்ள தேவன் நம்மிடம் இருக்கிறார்.  தேவன் நம் எல்லா பிரச்சனைகளையும் விட பெரியவர்.  எதுவாக இருந்தாலும் அவர் போதுமானவர் என்பதை அறிந்து நாம் அவரை நம்ப வேண்டும் என்று அவர் விரும்புகிறார்.  பலவீனமான காலங்களில் நம்மைப் பலப்படுத்த அவர் இருக்கிறார்.  சங்கீதம் 46:1-ல், தாவீது ராஜா கூறுகிறார், "தேவன் நமக்கு அடைக்கலமும் பெலனும், ஆபத்துக்காலத்தில் அநுகூலமான துணையுமானவர்."

"Blog Y2 085 - God’s Love and Salvation Revealed"

Image
In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 1 John 4:9. Apostle John shares a powerful truth in this verse about God’s love and Jesus’ mission on Earth. It shows how much God loves us—He sent His one and only Son into the world. The term "only begotten Son" highlights how unique and special Jesus is. This verse also points to salvation—God’s plan to save us from sin and death. By believing in Jesus and living for Him, we can experience true, abundant life. Does knowing that God gave His Son for you, build your trust in Him? John 3:16 says: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." தம்முடைய ஒரேபேறான குமாரனாலே நாம் பிழைக்கும்படிக்கு தேவன் அவரை இவ்வுலகத்திலே அனுப்பினதினால் தேவன் நம்மேல் வைத்த அன்பு வெளிப்பட்டது. 1 யோவான் 4:9. அப்போஸ்தலனாகிய யோவான் இந்த வசனத்தில் தேவனின் அன்பையும்...

"Christ safeguards us from sin"

Image
He who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him. 1 John 5:18. Apostle John declares that everyone who believes that Jesus is Christ has been born of God, making them a child of God. When we acknowledge Jesus as the only God and accept Him as our Savior, the Holy Spirit enters our hearts and transforms us from our old selves into new individuals. From that moment on, Christ safeguards us from sin and protects us against the enemy's evil plans. The Bible affirms that whoever has been born of God does not sin, as His seed remains in them, and they cannot sin because they have been born of God. In John 3:3 , 'Jesus answered and said to him,' "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." தேவனால் பிறந்தவன் தன்னைக் காக்கிறான், பொல்லாங்கன் அவனைத் தொடான். I யோவான் 5:18. இயேசுவே, கிறிஸ்து என்று நம்புகிற ஒவ்வொருவரும் தேவனால் பிறந்தவர்கள், அவர்களைத் தேவனின் பிள்ளையாக்குகிறார் என்று அப்போஸ்தலனாகிய ...

"Blog Y2 045 - Faith in God’s Strength Brings Victory"

Image
Through You we will push down our enemies; Through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us. Psalm 44:5. The verse highlights the theme of faith and reliance on God's strength. Despite their distress, the Israelites continue to affirm their trust in God's power and His sovereignty over their enemies. It is a declaration of their faith in God's ability to deliver them from their troubles and grant them victory. We see God's protection, power, and victory over everything. We know how David killed Goliath in the name of the Lord. The psalmist says that we shall tread upon the lion and the cobra; the young lion and the serpent we shall trample underfoot with God’s authority. In the same way, we can push down our adversaries and trample the enemy who rises up against us. Will you trust in God's strength to help you overcome your adversaries and grant you victory? Psalm 60:12 says: “Through God we will do valiantly, for it is He who shall tread down our en...

"Let us rejoice in the Lord"

Image
This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 Each day is a precious gift from God; despite the challenges we face, God has called us to rejoice and be glad in it.  To maintain joy every day, we can follow five steps:   1. Seek His face with all our hearts before starting the day.  2. Express our gratitude and praise to Him with hearts overflowing with thanksgiving. 3. Love Him by meditating on His word day and night.  4. Find contentment in Him by counting our blessings.  5. Share His love with others through what He has given us.  As Apostle Paul urged the Philippian believers in Philippians 4:4 , “ Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! ” இது க ர்த்தர் உண்டுபண்ணின நாள், இதிலே களிகூர்ந்து மகிழக்கடவோம்.  சங்கீதம் 118:24 ஒவ்வொரு நாளும் தேவனின் விலைமதிப்பற்ற பரிசு; நாம் எதிர்கொள்ளும் சவால்கள் அதிகமாக இருந்தபோதிலும், தேவன் நம்மை அதில் மகிழ்ச்சியாகவும் சந்தோஷமாகவும் இருக்க அழைத்துள்ளார். ஒவ்வொரு...

"Blog Y2 041 - Reflect God's love through actions"

Image
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. 1 John 4:12. The Apostle John reminds us that no one has seen God in His true form because He is a spiritual being, and our human eyes can only perceive physical things. Like the wind, God is invisible. Even in the Bible, when figures like Abraham or Gideon encountered God or angels, they did not see God's full nature. Today, we don’t need to physically see God to know Him. When we love one another, we "see" God through our actions. When we show love, God abides in us, and His love helps us grow spiritually. Whatever is incomplete or imperfect in our lives, God's love fills those gaps. His love is the greatest gift, providing everything we need to live for Him and to love others. If we truly grasp the depth of God’s love and reflect it in our lives, we won’t feel the need to search for other experiences or teachings—His love makes us whole. Are you reflect...

"Blog Y2 049 - Abundant Blessings for Those Who Trust"

Image
Oh, how great is Your goodness, Which You have laid up for those who fear You, Which You have prepared for those who trust in You in the presence of the sons of men! Psalm 31:19. In this Psalm, King David praises God for His goodness and abundant blessings stored up for those who fear and trust Him. God’s goodness reflects His generosity, extending far beyond anything we can imagine, demonstrating His infinitely generous attitude toward us. The psalmist declares that the Lord is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works. By nature, God desires to bring joy and blessings to all His creation. His eternal storehouse overflows into the lives of those who love Him.  The Lord is good and upright. He knows His own—those who believe in His gift of salvation, trust His unconditional love, honor His holy name, and take refuge in His mighty protection. For those who believe, He has prepared grace upon grace and blessing upon blessing, securing them in Christ forever. We can e...

"Blog Y2 450 - Fear God, Find Life"

  The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, To turn one away from the snares of death. Proverbs 14:27. This verse highlights the importance of fearing the Lord, showing that reverence for God brings life, protection, and wisdom. It reminds us that honoring God leads to a purposeful, fulfilling life, keeping us safe from spiritual destruction. The "fear of the Lord" is like a life-giving fountain, providing spiritual nourishment, joy, and purpose. It helps believers grow in their relationship with God, bringing wisdom and understanding. As Proverbs 1:7 says, it is the beginning of true knowledge. The fear of the Lord also protects us from the dangers of sin and death. It keeps us from falling into traps that lead us away from God, guiding us away from temptation and harmful choices. Psalm 19:9 says: "The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether." Reflection: Am I living with a genuine fear of the Lor...
