# 54 - Art of Living

Åґ☂ ◎ḟ ʟ☤√ḯη❡ #54: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God." (Rom.8:14, NKJV).

Praise the Lord dear friends! As I had a intense hunger and desire to grow spiritually and asked God for supernatural growth in my early twenties, little did I realize that God will send a intense suffering to make me grow. Just after I finished my Engineering, I got in to a computer company as a trainee. But at that time my ambitions were to do well financially and give God some money out of the abundance I planned to earn. Even had a desire to build Churches and help the mission of reaching people with the good news which had saved me in my childhood days and has taught all good things in life. But suddenly an intense storm of physical infirmity in the form of Hyper Thyroid in life threatening proportions hit me. I was devastated and became broken inside out. I was severly depressed as I saw many of my year mates and others doing well in their lives, yet here I was sitting in a hopeless situation and dire straits.

At that time of great trial, little did I realize that God did not want me to run a meaningless rat race like many do in the corporate world of emptiness, where depression creeps in to people's soul later in their lives without God. During the time when we were small at the end of 20th century, people used to speak about mid-life crisis where people at the age of fifty will have earned all things they have pursued and lived for in their lives, but full of void and emptiness of depressive nature filling their lives and making their lives miserable. But in our times in the twenty first century, people who go in to corporates earn all that their heart desires even before they reach the age of twenty five. But the sad thing is, now half life crisis have got worsened to quarter life crisis, where young men having all things of this world do not know how to fill the void that has come so greatly in to their hearts. The more people try to substitute the God given purpose for their lives with their own well planned blue print for their own future, the more clueless they will become spiritually in their lives as time passes on.

I thank God that I came to realise through the voice of God that came to me in a vision in the afternoon while I was sleeping due to strengthlessness caused by the sickness. In that vision I was instructed by God to apostolically work for Him. I did not know which work to do for God. Things like helping the poor people, taking care of orphans and widows, financially supporting the Church, preaching and teaching the word of God are all the work of God equally. So again I was in a dilemma knowing not what work I should do. I did not know at that point of time that God unfolds His plans step by step, year after year and decade after decade as we continue to walk with Him. In the midst of such a Crisis, I asked God to supernaturally lead me by His Spirit if he wanted me to work for Him. As I started to believe in the voice of God and began to work towards His plan for my life, God started leading me supernaturally through His Spirit. I began to understand the plans of God clearly as I started to push my self towards the fullfillment of it. God supernaturally baptized and filled me with His Spirit, inspite of me coming up in a denomination that has never believed that the evidence of Spirit filling is attested by a supernatural tongue speaking utterance which the Holy Spirit gives. From that point of time, I HAVE BEEN SUPERNATURALLY FILLED BY THE SPIRIT AGAIN AND AGAIN AS I CONTINUED TO SPEAK TO GOD IN THE PERSONAL TONGUES THAT CAME AS A GIFT WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM, WHICH ONLY GOD UNDERSTANDS AND NO ONE IN HEAVEN OR EARTH WILL BE ABLE TO EAVESDROP IN TO IT (1 Cor 14:2). Because of the great spiritual edification that I received ever since in my soul, God's powerful gifts have manifested in my life through the supernatural leading of the Holy Spirit. I thank God and praise God that I did not lethargically just stay as a child of God practicing the same basic elementary principles of Christ forever as I did since my childhood days, but chose to move on to unchartered in-depth spiritual territory as the son of God, being led by THE SPIRIT OF MY GOD (Heb 6:1-2). God gave me faith to prophesy and speak as the oracles of God (Rom 12:6; 1 Peter 4:11). I believe what God has done in my life for the past decade is just the beginning. I pray and hope that you will all be a part of my blessed journey with OUR GOD, LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST in the coming days. I want you all to be blessed as much as I am and even go higher than me if possible. May the grace of our Lord Jesus and the love of God the Father and the communion of the Holy Spirit abide and bring great rest to you in your spiritual journey with God (2 Cor 13:14).

Great Quotes

Ḡґℯαт ℚυø⊥εṧ :

"I've seen more Christians destroyed by ambition than any other sin - discontent in the heart, always pushing and jockeying - moving for some new thing, some new position . . . It's not what we do, it's that we do what we're called to do and that in it we glorify God." — Carter Conlon

"God is not looking for brilliant men, is not depending upon eloquent men, is not shut up to the use of talented men in sending His Gospel out in the world. God is looking for the broken men who have judged themselves in the light of the Cross of Christ. When He wants anything done, He takes up men who have come to the end of themselves, whose confidence is not in themselves, but in God." — H.A. Ironside

#53 — Art of Living

Åґ☂ ◎ḟ ʟ☤√ḯη❡ #53: "Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.." (Psalms 92:13, NKJV).

I praise God for the privilege that God gave me in my childhood to grown in the house of the Lord. As my dad is a pastor who pioneered a Church in Erode which is in South India and places around it, initially we were living in a thatched coconut leaf roof shed as a small children in faith. When ever some storms would blow, all the fence around the Church would fall down and in the morning all the brothers living around the Church would come to reassemble the whole structure. Then as the rain would pour out, we would take a lot of vessels and keep those vessels under all the places in our house where water would be dropping in. It was truly a time of great faith that my Dad and Mother went through along with us as little kids. And we had a very big thatched coconut leaf roof Church just opposite the place where we stayed.

Still I could remember clearly how much joy we had in living in that humble place. Now I realize that the joy we had was no natural one but a supernatural one from heaven, as the conditions we were living were very hard and substandard. We faced many trials in our family. We constantly faced health issues, financial issues and the burden of ministry right through out those times. One time, some anti-social miscreants threw a fire ball over the Church and ran away. Before we could douse the fire with our limited water supply, the whole Church got guttered down. It was a big shock to all of us. God in His faithfullness had prepared a believer to build a terrace house just opposite to our Church and it was ready to occupy at that time. The owner immediately gave it to us for rent. But this tragedy still strengthened our resolve to live for the Lord. Today I can tell you, all those trials that came to our family made us stronger spiritually. Dad never would tell us all these burdens but would be praying for it constantly as we faced it all. But when I was growing up from childhood to adolescence to adulthood, the world's way of thinking began to creep in to my mind and I began to think that we were lacking and poor compared to the worldly people. But such thinking sapped the joy that I had in me slowly like a leech.

But then as I was in to adulthood, all my joy was lost forever and bI egan to seriously think about the joy I experienced in the house of the Lord in my childhood days, inspite of poor conditions all around me. Then it dawned on me that the joy I experienced in the house of the Lord was thousand times more satisfying at any time than any passing sinful pleasure that I ever experienced in the world (Psa 84:10). Then I began to desire for it and asked the Lord to fill me with such heavenly joy again. Then after that God sent a heavy trial physically to refine me, I felt miserable but the Joy of the Lord began to sustain me through those trials. I began to desire seriously again to live in the house of the Lord and flourish with the heavenly life of joy, peace and righteousness again (Psa 27:4; 16:11). Guess what? The Lord called me in to ministry and thereafter I began to live by faith. The anointing of the Holy Spirit increased upon my life and made me realise that I myself is the house of the Lord (1 Cor 6:19-20). When the presence of God rushes from deep within my spirit to my soul mind and emotions, I understood that I am actually flourishing in the courts of the Lord. In the New Testament, the spirit-man is the most Holy place of communion where we speak to God face to face spiritually, and our soul is the holy place where we minister to the Lord with our mind, emotion and will continuously, and our body is the outer court where we as living sacrifice, sacrifice all our actions, strength and doings to the Lord (Rom 12:1). Now my life is blessed by God and is full of joy, victory and glory because I have chosen to pitch my tent inside the house of the Lord spiritually. ARE YOU READY? YOU ARE ASKING ME FOR WHAT? JUST TO PITCH YOUR TENT IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD AND FLOURISH ALONG WITH ME FOR THE GLORY OF GOD. I pray that your life be filled with the joy of the Lord and flourish by being planted in the house of the Lord forever and ever!
