"Jesus Christ, died for our sins"

Have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8

In today's verse, Apostle Peter says that the power of God's love will cover a multitude of sins, showing us how deeply He loves us. God sent His only son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins and save us. The love of Christ is unconditional. King David says that as far as the East is from the West, our Heavenly Father has removed our sins from us. Surely, we should forgive others' mistakes in the same way God has forgiven our sins. God expects us to continue showing deep love for one another.  Apostle Paul says in Romans 12:10, "Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another."

ஒருவரிலொருவர் ஊக்கமான அன்புள்ளவர்களாயிருங்கள்; அன்பு திரளான பாவங்களை மூடும். I பேதுரு 4:8

இன்றைய வசனத்தில், அப்போஸ்தலனாகிய பேதுரு, தேவனுடைய அன்பின் வல்லமை பல பாவங்களை மறைக்கும் என்று கூறி, அவர் நம்மை எவ்வளவு ஆழமாக நேசிக்கிறார் என்பதைக் காட்டுகிறார்,. தேவன் தம்முடைய ஒரே குமாரனாகிய இயேசு கிறிஸ்துவை நம்முடைய பாவங்களுக்காக மரித்து நம்மை இரட்சிக்க அனுப்பினார். கிறிஸ்துவின் அன்பு நிபந்தனையற்றது. மேற்கிலிருந்து கிழக்கு எவ்வளவு தூரம் இருக்கிறதோ, அவ்வளவு தூரம் நம்முடைய பரலோகத் தகப்பன் நம்முடைய பாவங்களை நம்மிடமிருந்து நீக்கிவிட்டார் என்று தாவீது ராஜா கூறுகிறார். நிச்சயமாக, தேவன் நம் பாவங்களை மன்னித்ததைப் போலவே மற்றவர்களின் தவறுகளையும் நாம் மன்னிக்க வேண்டும். நாம் ஒருவருக்கொருவர் ஆழ்ந்த அன்பைக் காட்டுவதை தேவன் எதிர்பார்க்கிறார். அப்போஸ்தலனாகிய பவுல் ரோமர் 12:10 -ல், “சகோதர சிநேகத்திலே ஒருவர்மேலொருவர் பட்சமாயிருங்கள்; கனம்பண்ணுகிறதிலே ஒருவருக்கொருவர் முந்திக்கொள்ளுங்கள்.” என்று கூறுகிறார்.

"Do not hold on to anger."

Image
Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Psalm 4:4. Today’s verse talks about one of the limitations of human nature. At times, we get upset over things we don't like. People speak in ways that trigger anger. The natural tendency is to release the pressure built up within us through anger. However, it doesn't stop there, as we don't get angry in isolation; we get angry at people. Now, there are plenty of chances that our anger turns into sin, as it can damage relationships, inflict wounds and scars on hearts, and even result in violent behavior. This verse tells us that when you get angry, go to your bed, lie down, and meditate in your heart. This act of obedience to the scripture helps reduce our pressure and increases the possibility of not committing sin. Finally, do not hold on to anger, and don't let anger motivate you to sin. In Ephesians 4:26 , Apostle Paul says, "Be angry, and do not sin: do not let the sun go down on ...

Blog # Y2 012 - "Prepare Your Heart for Worship"

Image
Walk prudently when you go to the house of God; and draw near to hear rather than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they do evil. Ecclesiastes 5:1. This scripture is a warning not to approach God's house without humility and careful thought. Proper preparation for worship is more important than the act of worship itself, especially if that worship is done without understanding. The reason why the "sacrifice of fools" is meaningless is that they lack knowledge—they don't want to listen and hear from God. This can happen in our lives as well. How many times do we attend church without preparing our hearts and minds? If we remain ignorant, our worship will not be acceptable to God. What is your attitude towards God when you go to church? We need to search our hearts to see whether we fear God and give Him reverence before entering His presence.  Romans 12:1 says: "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present yo...

"Blog Y2 086 - Calm Words, Peaceful Hearts"

Image
A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1. King Solomon gives wise advice on handling anger. A gentle answer can calm a tense situation, while harsh words only make things worse. The word "wrath" here refers to intense anger that can lead to conflict. When we’re insulted or upset, it’s easy to respond with more anger, but this only fuels the fire. Instead, responding calmly and kindly can help defuse the situation. A gentle response shows wisdom, self-control, and care for the other person, reducing tension and preventing further conflict. When faced with anger or insult, how can you respond with gentleness and wisdom to show love and defuse the situation instead of fueling conflict? Romans 12:21 says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." மெதுவான பிரதியுத்தரம் உக்கிரத்தை மாற்றும்; கடுஞ்சொற்களோ கோபத்தை எழுப்பும். நீதிமொழிகள் 15:1. சாலோமோன் ராஜா கோபத்தை எப்படி கையாள்வது என்பதைப் பற்றிய புத்திசாலித்தனமான ஆலோசன...

"Blog Y2 100 - Hope in God’s Faithful Plans"

Image
  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11. Today’s verse highlights the idea of an "expected end"—a future filled with hope. It serves as a verse of comfort and encouragement for those facing adversity. It reminds believers that God is always at work, even in difficult situations, and that His plans for His people are good. This is a source of hope and assurance for those who trust in the Lord and His promises. The verse symbolizes God’s faithfulness and care for His people. The fact that God’s thoughts are of peace reflects His love and personal concern for us, conveying a sense of intimacy and care from the Lord. The Apostle Paul prays for the people in Romans 15:13, “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Also, Proverbs 3:6 says, "In all your ways acknowledge Him,...

Blog # 342 - "Trust in God's help and protection"

Image
You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. Psalm 115:11. This verse encourages those who fear the Lord to trust in Him, as He is their help and shield. We know that the fear of God is not about being afraid of Him; it is about giving Him reverence, honor, and priority in every area of our lives. The image of God as a 'help' and a 'shield' has deep meaning. In the ancient world, a shield was an essential piece of armor that provided protection from enemy attacks. Likewise, God is portrayed as a shield, providing His people with defense against their enemies. Additionally, God as help emphasizes His role as a helper for His people in times of trouble. This conveys a sense of God's active involvement in the lives of those who trust in Him. Are you trusting in God's protection and help in every area of your life? Proverbs 29:25 says, "The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe." கர்த்தரு...

"Believers, you have overcome the world."

Image
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4. In this scripture, Apostle John refers to "little children" as young believers who are growing in the Lord every day. He encourages the believers as below: 1.   Saying, "You are of God," which means they are of His family; they have  embraced His truth, and His Spirit dwells with them. 2.   He mentions that these believers have "Overcome them," meaning they  have  taken victory over the evil one and the world. 3. He reminds us that the power of Christ, who lives in the believer, is greater  than the power of the world. The Holy Spirit living in us is far stronger than  any attack by the evil one. This scripture should empower us today not to fear the enemy but to trust the Lord and obey His commands. In this way, we can overcome the powers of darkness and walk with boldness in our life. 1 John 2:14 says, " I have writ...

Blog # 365 - "Trusting in God's Compassion and Care"

Image
For the Lord hears the poor, And does not despise His prisoners. Psalm 69:33. This scripture describes the nature of our God as a compassionate God who cares for the poor and the oppressed. In this verse, the "poor" represent those who are economically and socially in need, while the "prisoners" symbolize those who are physically or emotionally captive. The Psalms frequently mention God’s concern for the suffering people in the world. Despite his suffering and rejection, King David maintains faith that God is not indifferent to his pain. He trusts in God's righteous character and finds comfort during hardship. This reminds us that God’s love and care reach everyone, especially those who are vulnerable and in need. It encourages us to trust in God’s compassion and to seek His help in times of trouble. Are you calling out to God or to man when you are in trouble? Psalm 22:24 says: "For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Nor h...
