WHERE AM I?

A septuagenarian shuffled his feet, as he slowly walked along the pavement, and wondered in bewilderment, "Where am I?"

Many of us, are still wondering "Where am I?" until we step out of darkness and into THE LIGHT THAT CANNOT BE OVERCOME BY DARKNESS (John 1:5).  Therefore, let those who have ears hear what God is saying to each one of us (Matthew 11:15).

Even before God said, "Let there be light", God already thought of you and me (Titus 1:2; 1 Cor. 2:7), and had plans to give to those who love Him, what no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived" (1 Corinthians 2:9).  For what the Lord has purposed, who can thwart Him? His hand is stretched out, who can turn it back. (Isaiah 14:27

Let us, therefore, get to know about the "CHRISTMAS - PLANNED BEFORE CREATION" by our Heavenly Father - not to harm, but to give us hope and a future. 

 "May you have A Very Happy Christmas and a Blessed New Year"

UNFIT AND USELESS BUT STILL LOVED

Unfit, useless, filthy and unwanted, he stood on the rubbish heap.  Who would ever want to even look at him?  He waited for the day when he would disappear in all that filth and rubbish; when he was picked up, washed, cleansed of all the filth and then used by the Master according to HIS plan and purpose.

Now the person who was thought of as unfit and useless, is transformed in the Master’s hand, used as a channel to touch the lives of many who are rejected by the world, but loved by the Master, who loved us from everlasting to everlasting and chose not to remember their faults by removing their sins as far as the East is from the West.

Today the once unfit stands fit, useless stands useful and unwanted now wanted, stands firm and established on the Rock that cannot be shaken.  What the Master did for me HE will do for you for HE loves each one of us just as much as HE loves HIS own Son, Jesus Christ.

MY FATHER'S VOICE

I heard my father call out to me in a loving tender voice, “Noel Son!” .   It was just a blur and I felt a heaviness in my head.  As my eyes cleared I could see my father sitting next to my bed and calling to me “Noel son”.

This was in the end of the month of December, 1963;  when I was just ten years old.  I can’t remember anything of what happened.  But , I was told that I had been playing with my two brothers on the terrace of our home in Vadalur, Cuddalore TK South India.  Dad had gone to work and my mother had gone for her embroidery classes. 

While playing on the terrace of our home, I had jumped from the parapet onto the sunshade backwards, missed my balance and hit the concrete slab below, head first and remained unconscious for three days.  It was the evening of the third day that I heard the concerned and loving voice of my father call to me.   He held me and kissed me.

There were other times when I heard his voice too.  But the tone was different.  I recognized when my father  was pleased with me and when he was not so pleased.   Though the note changed, his love was always evident. 

Just as I was sensitive to my earthly father’s voice, God wants us to be sensitive to HIS voice when HE speaks to us.    In John 10:4 it is written “And when he has brought out all his sheep, he walks ahead of them and they will follow him, for they are familiar with his voice.”

2 Timothy 3:16-17 (TPT) says “Every Scripture has been written by the Holy Spirit, the breath of God. It will empower you by its instruction and correction, giving you the strength to take the right direction and lead you deeper into the path of godliness. Then you will be God’s servant, fully mature and perfectly prepared to fulfill any assignment God gives you.”
May we all be sensitive to the voice of our Heavenly Father and become fully mature and perfectly prepared to fulfill any assignment God gives us.

BE ON FIRE FOR GOD or BE IN FIRE WITHOUT HIM

It has been along time since I had blogged. As I went through the posts that I had inserted in the year 2011, I felt a stir within my heart to "BE ON FIRE WITH GOD or TO BE CAST IN HELLFIRE WITHOUT HIM.

As I considered the years that have gone by and how the Lord has lead me and my family from nothing to be seated among kings and princes, I give glory to God for HIS gracious mercy on us as HE works all things for our good.  Never ever letting go of our hands, but sustaining us with HIS righteous hand and holding our right hand and guiding us all through the every up and down in our lives. 

As we submit our lives to God, HIS peace, that surpasses all human understanding, surrounds us to guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.  Seeking the face of the Father, early in the morning, while it is still dark, to receive instruction from HIS mouth and laying up HIS Words in our hearts so that it overflows and blesses all those around us.

It is written in Jeremiah 29:11 (Amp) "For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and no for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome."  And faithful is the Lord who has called us, HE will perfect that which concerns me. for HIS mercy endures forever, and my Heavenly Father will not forsake the works of HIS hands.
To God alone be all the glory, honor and praise. Amen!

If I believe then I should perceive what the Lord is doing


Dear Fellow Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ,

I have been going through many of the requests of the inquirers and understand that they are depressedbroken and unsure of themselves because of the lies that they have been exposed to.  They do not know where they are going, or what they are going to do.

Jesus said "I must be about My Father's business." and "I came to seek and save the lost".  I make an appeal to you my fellow believers.  Let us stop being complacent about our salvation and follow Jesus in seeking the lost people who are desperately seeking for answers in their lives in  anxietybrokennessconditional lovedeath,emptinessfalsehoodguilthopelessnessillnessinsignificance and shame.

Remember, Jesus said “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”


Let Ezekiel 33:7-8 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 8 When I say to the wicked, ‘You wicked person, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.

Those who could have come into the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ through one word from us would die and go to hell, and you and I would be accountable for their blood.

Galatians 6:9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

"Rise up and eat, you have a long way to go"

As the Director of ICI University, in Tamilnadu, my work took me to many districts in the state.  The travel was usually by road, since the bus stops were closer than the railway station.  During my many trips I felt a severe head ache on the top of my skull and had to cancel my program and return home.

On my return home, we visited the General Practitioner and he said, you got nothing to worry about. your body is dehydrated and you need to replenish it. Just drink a lot of water and you will be alright.  However after two days, since the pain continued, my wife, Esme, decided to get a second opinion and visited a Neurologist.  On examining me, the neurologist advised a scan to be taken.  After the scan the doctor advised immediate operation.  Because there was a blood clot the size of man's palm between my brain and the cranium.  This caused the brain to swell, causing severe pain.

I do not remember anything from June 18 - 20, 2006.  It is a blank in my memory. I only remember what my wife told me later.  How she had taken me from the Neurologist to the Bharat Scans and  back to the Neurologist and then to another Neurosurgeon in Velachery and back home at almost midnight.  When I was brought to the Apollo Hospital in the morning the surgeon said "If you had  brought your husband a half hour later, you would have lost him."

The frantic calls to the pastors in the church to pray and my daughter and her holding hands and praying in the hospital, my son going to college because of the semester exams, my sister Bernice's husband Danny, who had come from Cuddalore directly to the hospital. 

Psalm 30:5 ".... weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning."
Our God hears prayer and though there were tears that night, there was great rejoicing the next day.  Allow me to give you a glimpse into what it was like.

It was totally black. It seemed that darkness reigned. And then through that thick darkness a faint glimmer of light emerged, and became larger until my eyes opened to see the  face of Sister Amla asking me "How are you brother? We have been praying for you, NLAG church had sent a prayer request to all the "Prayer Warriors" by sms to pray. Three of the prayer warriors were working in the Apollo Hospital. One was sister Amla and two others were male nurses in the hospital.  It was then that I realised that I was in the Post Operation Ward after a successful surgery to remove that blood clot from my brain.

My head was bandaged and the Surgeon said "Don't turn left or right, just lie on your back"  This position gave me only one option and that was to look up.  As I looked up, the Lord spoke to me 
"Rise up and eat, you have a long way to go."
As I to recuperated, I spent my time reading and meditating on the Word of God every day.  

It is now five years since that eventful day, the Lord restored my health and strength, I have been travelling again all over Tamilnadu, Kerela and Andhra Pradesh.   Not only as the Director of ICI University, but also as Head Coach in India, for Network211.  The Lord has extended my territories from Tamilnadu to South India, North India, North East India, Bangladesh, Pakistan  and Bhutan.  To God alone be all the glory, honor and praise!
