Hello People!



Its been quite a time that I have written to you! I believe during these times you have reached much closer to GOD and not treating his just like an option to live your temporal life here according to you will and wishes.



I have an interesting thought this time and I believe this will help all of us to understand and come closer to Christ more.



How many of you know the modern history of Israel?



The modern history of Israel starts since 1948 at which time the country Israel was formally formed and recognized and since then it has grown and has became the power that it is now!! And since its formation and I believe even during the process of its formal recognition it had faced quite a struggle and issues.



Variousn neighbouring forces and courntries not accepting Israel as country and thus land given to them had become a primary issue to cause a lot of trouble to Israel. Counter-insurgency, attacks have always been there.



The other day I was doing my bible study and reading Nehemiah, how he was burdened by LORD and how he spoke to the king and got the permission to build the temple/ city of the LORD and hearing this how the ministers of the neighboring region alwasy troubled him and there was constant attempt to stop the resurrection of the city Jerusalem.



But, Nehemiah and his people were ubfazed and didn't stop the efforts to rebuild the city of Jerusalem and were finally able to successfully build the perifery walls of Jerusalem.



The point here I am making is Israel always had troubles from its neighbours, be it the modern history or be it the ancient history but Israel never stopped moving forward. The people forsure floundered in their ways, they backslid, they were never always correct but one thing was constant that LORD was always with them as and when they repented whole heartedly.



Even during these current times they are engaged in the war, who's right or who's wrong and frist of all why the war?? Everything on this earth happens only when allowed by GOD, even this is allowed by GOD for his own purpose. So, if the purpose of GOD is his glorification through the defeat of Israel, which at present we might understand, then that will happen and if the glorification is via the victory then no one can stope that happening.



Whatever may be the outcome one thing is for sure that Israel shoudn't stop moving forward along with GOD, thats the only way out!!



The greater glory of the GOD is in Israel constantly being with the LORD come what may be the situation!!

Hello friends!



Hope you all had a great new year celebration and 2026 has been treating you very well!



I had a very random thought and if I mention that as an inspiration it would not be wrong! a random thought that has helped me to understand that whatever our understanding of anything for now will not be necessarily a correct understanding and even if we are correct in our understanding, that very understanding itself will be not right in someone else's view.



I am talking of Jonah here!! When we read this particular chapter on Jonah, when we read it the first thing that hit our mind and heart is that he should have listened to GOD, not only he has not listened to him but he was angry on GOD when GOD has taken away the only shade that he had, the tree/ plant/ creeper under which he was resting while being angry on GOD.



The other day I had, rather, a different thought. Put yourselves in his shoes and think for a while,

You are being told to declare that since there is a lot of sin and a lot of wrong doing and as a punishment GOD will finish the generation but then it doesnt happen!!



What then? Yes, the city repented and repented in a manner that GOD had to change his plans, so, is GOD not correct?



Can GOD be in anyway not correct??



But, then think of the state of a person who declared the result but that was not to be, should we say that GOD's actions have given him bad name, will you ever be in a position to again have faith in the inspiration of GOD.



We all will be doubting whether the inspiration that we got is from GOD himself or not?



So, in a way Jonah, my assumption, has gotten a bad name or may be has gotten a name of wrong prophet because whatever he is said hasn't happened in that generation. And during such phase he got emotinally connected to a plant which provided his shade, may be, thinking that atleast this plant cares for me and no one else.



And that very attachment was taken away from him the next moment.



How would you feel? Will you not be having an angry emotion?



Yes, we all agree that at the end GOD was proven right, actually GOD doesn't need to be proven right he doesn't need any proofs!!



Whatever GOD does he does that with a thought of teaching his disciple and Jonah at the end got his learning also but, we can't say that Jonah was wrong in having angst against GOD.



Lets not be a judge of the men, matters, materials, moments!!

Hello friends!



Have you ever felt bitter towards any person or any group of people?



If you have never ever had such feelings then either you have perfectly accepted and are walking in Christ's teachings or you are a totally no feelings person who doesn't care about anything!!



But, I like to believe that all of us do get affected and tend to have strong feelings towards one person or a certain set of people.



And due to which we tend to grow bitter, have a grudge against them and this in turn always keeps us focussed on them, rather than being open to many other things or many other people in our lives.



And thats where we miss this one very specific and very strong instruction from Christ i.e. love each other and most importantly love your enemies, he literally doesn't mean to still have a close relationship with them or become friends with them, and do good to them who has done bad or always planning and plotting against you.



As it is written in the WORD of GOD those who dig pits for others shall themselves fall into the same pit.



What HE implies is forgive them and literally have a neutral stance towards them and if at all you come to know that you actually can help them just do that and have no other feelings or expectations from them or from anyone whom you have helped. And while doing so if they have a change of mind & heart and ask for forgiveness do forgive them, i believe you would have already forgiven them and therefore you are helping them since you came to know that they need help!!



All these I had known and still I faltered at this and lately I have realized it and I am sure GOD will help me to mend my ways!!



That one bitter thought had led to another thought and without me realizing it was a chain of thoughts a strong hold created by myself which prevented me from reflecting Christ in some specific areas.



If you are having such a train of thoughts towards anyone trust me it is of no use, in return it will make you bitter from insideout and you will not cherish the life that you have.



But, what GOD has asked us to? That is to cheris the life always!! I know it is difficult to cherish always but GOD is with us to help us!!



Lets submit ourselves to CHRIST!

Hello Friends!



Today I will share some interesting anecdotes from my experience of being in Christ. He never forgets his plan about you, and he never leaves any of his plans unfulfilled but the only thing that we need to keep in mind is that we have to keep him and what he wants from us right in front of our eyes without fail.



I believe you all remember the parable of the brides, the brides which were waiting for the groom to visit them and since the groom was taking time to come, they fell asleep. NO!!



Let me give a summary here in my own simple language, some women are asked to get ready since the groom has expressed desire to pick a bride from among them. They all get ready, also, they carry lamp to be used for night, in case bride takes time to come and comes at the night hour. Half of the brides carry extra oil as they deemed fit and half of them didn't carry any extra oil!!



Since groom was taking time come and these brides slept of while waiting for him. And when the groom had come to see them, half of them didn't have any oil and were not able to go and meet the groom.



What do we learn from this? Personally, I believe it has a lot to do with my own experience of being in Christ.



3 years back during a prayer time GOD has told me that I need to temporarily do a job, I being an entrepreneur most of my life and due to some issues, the business wasn't being fruitful and let me tell you clearly this business is given to us by GOD, when he told me that temporarily I need to do job and he reminded me that I shouldn't forego spending time in WORD and in Prayers giving job as a reason because ultimately I will be used by him to spread his WORD and he will take me to the people chosen by him to share the Gospel.



I had gotten job offers which were paying good salary but obviously no time for yourselves, but I had chosen a job which is less paying but gives me time to spend with WORD and in prayers and along with this it gives me time to focus on the business given by GOD.



One thing I kept reminding myself that this job is temporary and my actual work is spreading the Gospel.



So, what is the connection with my experience and the parable?



The oil that is required to keep you moving in the path of GOD is the time that we spend in WORD and prayers and the consciousness that we become his followers only when we live the Gospel. Come what may be mindful that you are Christians only when you do what HE wants you to do.



The oil is when you have HIM constantly in front in your mind and heart and live accordingly. Visiting buildings during a specific day and calling that worship is not what HE wants, remembering him always at whatever state & stage of our lives is what is called fellowship, and it is this oil which keeps our lamps burning and helps us to meet the groom when he comes.



Whoever has ears let him hear!

Hello people!



I had to take a long break due to certain health concerns! By GOD's grace I am absolutely healthy and back on my foot!



I am happy that I am back to sharing my experience of GOD with all of you!!



This time what I share is an inspiration derived out of multiple fellowsips that we have in our group. Like GOD has said in his WORD line up on line, precept up on precept, this is something similar to that.



In one of our fellowships, two to three months back, GOD was insisting us to focus to listen to his voice, and everyone of us we had taken it in our own stride in the way it had inspired us individually!! One month down the line from this fellowhip, he had asked us to give break to our petitions, our prayers to him for take care of all our needs of this life and any other such concerns and yes these concerns may be real and are a need to ourselves.



So! what are we arriving at here?



I believe these two inspirations from GOD are connected and real. We are so much concerned about our needs, desires, issues & problems that we tend to pray to GOD for all these things and forget that we are in the presence of GOD to have a communion with him in the way and for the things that he wants us to focus and follow and not everytime for the things that we want from him. Be it real time need or be it a solution to a problem.



And when we are so much focussed on what we want from HIM and not at all concerned with what GOD has in store for us while he brings us through all these situations, we are not at all focussed on what's the motive behind when he is bringing us through all these situations!! We tend to not hear his still small voice.



That very still small voice which gives direction to our lives and that direction is a solution or a strength that we need.



Thus I say that these word from these two fellowships were related, GOD has asked us to focus on his still small voice by stopping our continous petitions to him for our need or issues!!



Those who have ears let him hear!!

Hello people!



Hope you all are doing well! This time I am writing this to share a quick thought that has crossed my mind while reading 1 - Kings. I believe many of you would have come across such similar situations in your life.



When we are at a stable state in life and when life is going easy on us and whatever is in our lives is exactly in the same way and state in which we would have wanted, we are not only happy in our lives but actually are enjoying our lives!!



It is then when a sudden jerk, a sudden incident, an untoward situation arises in our lives and then we are lost for directions, we are lost of solutions actually we are lost and actually are frozen to take any decision towards any direction.



Why does this happen? As it is written in the WORD of GOD, those who standeth be cautious and careful let you fall.



When we are in a smooth phase of life and everything is happening as expected by us then we tend to become a relaxed, laidback, lazy and there is a bit of taking things for granted and that's when we unsee the things that needs our attention leading to our fall.



The beginning of all these is our lack of integrity towards our GOD, we pray to GOD, run to GOD and always remember GOD when things are not going well in our lives or when we need some specific things in our lives. But, when we get solutions to our issues and problems or we get directions to what we want in our lives we slowly loose our touch our communion with GOD.



We become so busy in our lives, this very life which was given by GOD to us, giving the reason of this very life for not having any communion with GOD that our ears become very heavy to listen to his voice leading to fall of us into troubles, issues etc.



Like Solomon when he became King of Israel as allowed by GOD using the very wisdom given by GOD but then he was so lost in his own world of showing what all riches he has, what a wisdom GOD has given to him, multiple marriages, concubines and what has happened finally? As it is written in the WORD of GOD that as an Israelite one shouldn't marry into clan which was not allowed by GOD because this very wife will divert one from following one and then only Jehovah to following the GOD of their clan.



And that is what has happened with Solomon! He did what is not right in the eyes of GOD, he didn't follow GOD in all truthfulness and integrity and had to pay the price for it.



When things are really going well then be thankful to GOD for whatever we have achieved and when things are tough then lets keep praying to GOD to give us strength and direction and solution to our issues. In any case lets not loose our communion with GOD, during good times thanking him and be grounded and during tough times not reeling under the pressure but transferring all our cares to him with confidence that these issues will surely be resolved in GOD's time, till then asking for peace, calm and patience from GOD.



Introspect yourselves!! Are you still in communion with GOD!!

Hello People!



In one of my recent posts I had asked you, what if Saul had listened to Samuel?



Lets try to run our heads over it and understand if Saul had listened to Samuel then what would have happened?



David wouldn't have been King! Yes, David wouldn't have been anointed as King and neither he would have had the run of life that he actually had since he was picked by GOD to be King in the stead of Saul. Neither we would have had all those psalms written by David, the very psalms to which we go to when we want some inspiration. Psalms we relate to our situation and inspire ourselves to have a communion with GOD.



Being a bit wild!! may be GOD wanted to tell us all that even though we are his anointed and may be we have a close relation with him but we can't take his directions or him for granted. May be it was running in Saul's head that he has been selected by GOD and thus he can assume things and do whatever he wanted to do. And GOD, maybe, wanted to tell his people not to take him or his directions for granted. Thus, the end of Saul the way it is!!



God didn't kill Saul immediately, may be to show us that even though we are wrong and have taken wrong directions, yet he is a merciful GOD and given ample time to us to repent from our ways. As if David was right in all his actions!! He did falter, he did fail in many a places and circumstances but one thing he made sure that whenever he realized that he had committed a mistake he ran to GOD for forgiveness!! If you have committed a mistake then is doesn't mean that you run away from GOD but run to GOD and amend your ways and he will surely forgive you.



During his escape from Saul, David got many opportunity to kill Saul but he didn't lay his hand on Saul since he was the anointed of GOD. The one trait that we need to imbibe in us, don't touch the GOD's people and never try to avenge your cause by yourself, let GOD avenge your cause and that's what GOD has told us, he shall avenge our cause in the way that he wanted to and not in our way.



So! if Saul had listened to Samuel we wouldn't have had all these learnings!!



GOD does everything for a purpose.

Hello people!



Hope everyone is doing good! I have a very basic, if you think I am stupid to ask such question! I am OK with that, question, why are you actually following GOD? What has brought you to GOD?



Is it that everyone is following some ritual, some carven image in the name of GOD and that what has brought you to follow the same, do you know if he is GOD or not or just because that it was told to you multiple times right from the days of growing up and thus you ended up believing that what the people around you are following is GOD!!



Have you ever questioned yourself about it? Actually we don't! because we don't care to know who actually has created us.



What do we follow as ritual? Some dates specified for some celebration, in fact in India multiple dates for multiple celebrations, we gather, we cook, we do the ritual and then we eat the food that we cooked and all this in the name of GOD.



One month one particular GOD and the other month other GOD and what we do gather, cook and eat in the name of that GOD. And even if we are providing/ distributing food to any and everyone then we make a big promotion out of it, we click photos, we paste on social media, update our WhatsApp status. Sowing to the entire world that we are the people who actually follow GOD.



As it is written in the WORD that the so called men of GOD want everyone to greet them, they should get high places in the churches, they wear obviously different cloths to separate themselves from the rest of the people because they are the men of GOD.



If GOD has given you more than what is needed by you then GOD is providing that to you to be a help, a change in and inspiration in the life of a person who doesn't have enough. Through you he is providing for someone in need.



GOD has not stopped you from living your life, enjoying your moments but warns us from focusing only on us!!



And all this is mentioned in the WORD of GOD, the HOLY BIBLE!



Are you reading the WORD of GOD?

Hello people!

This is not the continuation of the topic that I had mentioned in my last blog!! But, a totally different perspective of how we see the things.



We all know about Judas Iscariot as to how he had betrayed Jesus gave him to the soldiers and what happened to Jesus!! On following the storyline we feel sad about Jesus, we cry and we, mostly, have all the negative feelings and say negative things about Judas Iscariot.



We are overwhelmed by emotions and that how can one do such a ghastly thing to the SON of GOD? But, if we slow down and mellow down our emotions we understand that that was supposed to happen!!



Jesus was supposed to be born as man and was supposed to be betrayed, beaten, battered, bruised, slapped and spat upon, he was meant to have such a gruesome death. ALMIGHTY had already planned this and to execute this plan he had to have a life through which this was to be executed and that life is Judas Iscariot.



As it is written in the WORD that some lives are made by GOD for honorable works and some are made by GOD for works of no honor. Similarly, many of his disciples were given the life and purpose of honor and Judas Iscariot was given the, in today's language we say, dirty job by GOD to handover Jesus to the soldiers.



And all these jobs have only one purpose and that is the glory of GOD. Good tasks and bad tasks had only one primary aim and that is to glorify GOD.



Judas Iscariot had perfectly did what he was made for by GOD!! Yes, a very bad thing and at the end of it he whole heartedly, I believe so, repented and ended his life.



So, what is the point I am trying to make here? Did Judas Iscariot go to heaven or hell? Since the purpose of his life was fulfilled and because of this act of his many of us had a chance to know and accept the one and only realty of CHRIST, so does that mean that he had gone to heaven or its because of this very act did he go to hell??



Now, one would go to hell if he keeps on sinning without repentance. What's sin? A murder, theft or any other such crimes or not doing what is required by GOD? I would say not doing or not following the voice of GOD, yes, the very still small voice which tells you that whatever you are about to do is good to be done or not, that very still small voice which gives you a kind of bad feeling about a decision that you are about to take, this voice is consciousness and this is the voice of GOD!!



So, Judas did what his life was made for!! So he has not sinned and thus he didn't go to hell!!



Or is it that it is because of this betraying character of his because of which, though he repented, he had gone to hell!!



The question is did Judas Iscariot had gone to heaven or hell?

Hello! friends, I name this post as 'what if Saul had listened to Samuel?'



In our lives many a times we come across the situation where we question ourselves what we had listened to the advices or talks of the ones who cared for us!!



The other day when I was praying the same thought had hit me, what if Saul had listened to Samuel??



What if he wasn't hasty to give the oblations and go for battle?



What if he hadn't rushed to judging against David after his victory against Palestinians when the people were praising David with the song??



What if he had heard Samuel in not bringing anything from the town he had captured than bringing cattle, and other such items in the name of the LORD??



What if he had listened to Samuel when he told him that LORD is not with him any more and he needs to give away the Kingship of Israel??



Was all this allowed by GOD?



May be he would have still been in the Castle along with David eating at the king's table, may be David would have involved him in ruling the Israel, may be he would have been a great leader under David, there can be many ifs and buts.



One thing was clear David never wanted to take Saul's life by his own or his accomplices hands. May be Saul would have been remembered even now as a person who had foregone Kingship at the instance of GOD and be considered as one of the stalwarts of faith.



Or can we say he never had zeal for GOD? What is zeal for GOD? Is it doing the things that we want in the name of GOD, is it following our own passion in the name of GOD?



Then why does the scripture say that we give GOD a living sacrifice? What is a living sacrifice? Do we know?



Guys!! I would explore this topic in my next writing till then keep running your heads over it!!
