"Grateful for God's marvelous works"

For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands. Psalm 92:4.

King David expresses his happiness and gratitude for everything the Lord has done. He said that the Lord has done many wonderful things and has planned marvelous things for us. There is none to compare with Him. If he were to declare and speak of God's wonders, they would be too many to count. He praises and thanks God for His provisions and blessings, acknowledging that everything God does is good and brings happiness. This attitude of gratitude and faith is central to his message. The verse reflects a deep trust in God's ability to provide joy and triumph in the lives of those who follow Him. David's words encourage others to seek the Lord and find gladness in His works. How is our attitude towards God’s handiwork today? Are we grateful to God? Psalm 139:14 says, "I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well."

கர்த்தாவே, உமது செய்கைகளால் என்னை மகிழ்ச்சியாக்கினீர், உமது கரத்தின் கிரியைகளினிமித்தம் ஆனந்த சத்தமிடுவேன். சங்கீதம் 92:4.

தாவீது ராஜா கர்த்தர் செய்த எல்லாவற்றிற்கும் தனது மகிழ்ச்சியையும் நன்றியையும் வெளிப்படுத்துகிறார். கர்த்தர் பல அற்புதமான காரியங்களைச் செய்திருக்கிறார், நமக்காக அதிசயமான காரியங்களை திட்டமிட்டிருக்கிறார் என்று அவர் சொன்னார். அவருக்கு நிகரானவர் எவரும் இல்லை. தேவனுடைய அதிசயங்களை அவர் அறிவித்துப் பேசினால், அவை எண்ண முடியாத அளவு இருக்கும். தேவனுடைய ஏற்பாடுகளுக்காகவும், ஆசீர்வாதங்களுக்காகவும் அவர் தேவனைத் துதித்து நன்றி செலுத்துகிறார், தேவன் செய்யும் அனைத்தும் நல்லது மற்றும் மகிழ்ச்சியைத் தருகிறது என்பதை ஒப்புக்கொள்கிறார். இந்த நன்றியுணர்வும் விசுவாசமும் அவருடைய செய்தியின் மையமாக இருக்கிறது. அவரைப் பின்பற்றுபவர்களின் வாழ்க்கையில் மகிழ்ச்சியையும் வெற்றியையும் வழங்குவதற்கான தேவனின் வல்லமையில் ஆழமான நம்பிக்கையை இந்த வசனம் பிரதிபலிக்கிறது. தாவீதின் வார்த்தைகள் மற்றவர்கள் கர்த்தரைத் தேடவும், அவருடைய கிரியைகளில் மகிழ்ச்சியைக் காணவும் ஊக்குவிக்கின்றன. இன்று தேவனது கையின் கிரியைகளைப் பற்றிய நமது எண்ணம் எப்படி இருக்கிறது? தேவனுக்கு  நாம் நன்றி செலுத்துகிறோமா? சங்கீதம் 139:14 கூறுகிறது, "நான் பிரமிக்கத்தக்க அதிசயமாய் உண்டாக்கப்பட்டபடியால், உம்மைத் துதிப்பேன்; உமது கிரியைகள் அதிசயமானவைகள், அது என் ஆத்துமாவுக்கு நன்றாய்த் தெரியும்."

"Blog Y2 066 - True friendship brings joy and renewal."

Image
Ointment and perfume delight the heart, And the sweetness of a man’s friend gives delight by hearty counsel. Proverbs 27:9. King Solomon compares the pleasing aroma of oil and incense to the joy and refreshment that wise counsel from a trusted friend brings. We see this kind of friendship in Scripture, like David and Jonathan’s bond or Mary of Bethany anointing Jesus with fragrant oil—a loving act that filled the house with its sweet scent and brought joy to Jesus. In the same way, a true Christian friend provides gentle encouragement, wise guidance, and correction with kindness, becoming a source of joy and spiritual renewal. Let’s strive to bring this uplifting “aroma of Christ” to others, showing love, care, and even sacrifice in our friendships. Are you offering wise counsel and Christlike love to your friends? John 15:13 says: "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends." பரிமளதைலமும் சுகந்ததூபமும் இருதயத்தைக் களிப்பாக்குவதுபோல, ஒருவ

"Blog Y2 047 - Righteous Efforts Lead to Life."

Image
The labor of the righteous leads to life, The wages of the wicked to sin. Proverbs 10:16. The world has both righteous and wicked men. The efforts of a righteous man lead to godliness and life, while the efforts of a wicked man lead to sin and death. Honest labor brings its own reward through the blessing of God, resulting in a long and peaceful life. The goal of a good person's work is to live honestly without resorting to sinful actions. As a result, their hard work preserves their life and helps them pursue eternal life. On the other hand, the efforts of wicked people lead them into sin. Their labor fuels their pride, luxury, and focus on worldly things, often leading to early death and, without repentance, eternal death. What kind of life are you living—righteous or wicked? Proverbs 11:30 says: "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise." நீதிமானுடைய பிரயாசம் ஜீவனையும், துன்மார்க்கனுடைய விளைவோ பாவத்தையும் பிறப்பிக்கும். நீதிமொழிகள் 1

"Blog Y2 048 - Focus on God during tough times"

Image
For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. 1 Peter 2:19. Apostle Peter is saying that when we face the worst in life, like unfair criticism, that's when we need to focus on God and the grace He gave us through Jesus. In life, we often bring suffering on ourselves through our own actions. Sometimes what we call "suffering for Jesus" is really the result of our own selfishness or carelessness.  Peter reminds us that there’s no reward for suffering caused by our own mistakes. Jesus didn’t sin or deceive; He only suffered for doing what was right. We should follow His example, being righteous, thoughtful, and careful in all we do. That way, if we suffer, it will truly be for the Lord.  Do you focus on God’s grace when facing unfair criticism? 1 Peter 3:14,15 says: “ But even if you should suffer for righteousness sake, you are blessed. “And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled. But sanctify the Lord God

"Blog Y2 052 - Living by God's Word daily"

Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. James 1:22. Apostle James emphasizes the need to act on what we hear. He warns that we deceive ourselves if we think we can be hearers only and not doers of the Word. Those who sincerely love God are the ones who keep His commands. God desires that those who hear His Word become authentic followers of Jesus—disciples who obey the Lord’s teachings out of love for their Heavenly Father. Jesus also gave a stern warning to those who hear God's words but fail to act on them in Matthew 7:21,  "Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven."  As faith without works is dead, merely hearing God's Word without putting it into practice also deadens our spiritual life. The cleansing and justifying power of God's Word is experienced only when we live according to it. Are you living as both a hearer and doer of God's Word

"Blog Y2 051 - Humbly trust God to lift you up"

Image
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up. James 4:10. Apostle James reminds us to humble ourselves before God's face, and He will lift us up in His time. Humbleness and humility both refer to the quality of being modest. In the Bible, humility is presented as the practice of meekness, obedience to God, self-respect, respect for others, submissiveness, and modesty. This verse is a call to action for us to humble ourselves before God and to approach Him reverently. Paul described Jesus’s life on earth in Philippians 2:8,9: He became a servant, even unto death, and the Father exalted Jesus to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name. Most of the time, we expect to be recognized and glorified, and we feel disappointed when things don’t go our way. However, God asks us to abandon the world's way of pursuing recognition and glory. Instead, He calls us to trust Him to exalt us at the right time without seeking that glory for ourselve

"Blog Y2 061 - Finding Joy in God's Word"

Image
Blessed is the man, ……… his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. Psalm 1:1,2 This scripture says that a child of God will delight in the word of God by meditating on it day and night. The Hebrew word for “delight” means “extreme pleasure, satisfaction, or joy.” Reading, studying, and applying God’s truth is a source of joy for the righteous. To delight in God’s word means to love it deeply, to hunger and thirst for Him. We delight in His word because we know it has the power to sustain us with joy through times of despair. It brings hope, comfort, protection, and victory over sin and leads us to eternal life. Do you delight in God's word by meditating on it day and night? Joshua 1:8 says: "This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.&qu

"Blog Y2 062 - Align your life with God's will."

Image
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts. Proverbs 21:2. When God created mankind, He gave us something very unique: free wil l . This allowed us to make our own choices according to our will. It was through this free will that humanity first sinned against God in the Garden of Eden. Today, we often rely on our own judgment, thinking our way is right. Yet, the Bible reminds us that when we act according to our own understanding, we may not realize if we are doing right or wrong. Only God truly examines our hearts and knows the innermost details of our thoughts—whether they are good or evil. When we align our actions with God’s Word and listen to His voice, we walk in His ways and receive His blessings.  Therefore, we should ask God to search our hearts, purify our motives, and guide us. Are you living a life aligned with God’s ways? Proverbs 3:7 says: “Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil.” மனுஷனுடைய வழியெல்லாம் அவன் ப
