THE UNTRODDEN PATH

PART II

The Holy Bible says, “You spoke to me, and I listened to every word. I belong to You, Lord God Almighty, and so your words filled my heart with joy and happiness.”  (Jere. 15:16)

Psalmist says, “Lord created the heavens by His command, the sun,moon and stars by His spoken Word.” (Psalms 33:6)

Then God commanded and created the universe. (Gen.1)

The Scripture says that man cannot live on bread alone but needs every Word that God speaks.

Similarly in the Gospel of John, Lord Jesus claims that ‘the Words that I spoke to you bring life-giving spirit.’

Reading Bible and listening to the Word of God brings strength, health and cheerfulness in us. We obtain immense inner healing, deliverance, emotional alterations of mind. In short we partake in a festival of blessings.

It guides us to a new path, totally different from our past because His law is perfect and it gives strength.

His command is trustworthy and just which gives understanding to the mind.

No one can notice their own errors but the fruitful messages deliver us from hidden faults and all evil of sin.

The Holy Bible says, “For through the living and eternal Word of God, you have been born again.” (1 Peter 1:23)

When we believe in His name and accept His teachings He gave us the right to become God’s children.

The one who devotedly reads and meditates the Holy Messages are accepting Lord Jesus. One day Lord Jesus openly declared, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the Word of God and obey it.”

Through the above verse, we understand that Christ Jesus is upgrading the position of those who follow the Holy Word.

During my mission, Lord had added so many devotees to my family. They would voluntarily come to me to share the burden of the mission. People of all ages, caste and creed would join in and as per the will of God; we all would serve for the Kingdom of God under the roof of Lord Jesus.

It was truly an untrodden path.

Jesus said, “How happy are those who hear the Word of God and obey it.”

During the seven years of my public mission and even today, none is sent without being touched by the Word of God.

“I will never turn away anyone who comes to me” these words were proved throughout my mission.

“How happy you are to believe that the Lord’s message will come true.” (Luke 1:45)

Blessed are the ones who believe in the truth and share through their example in life.

‘Happy is the one who reads this book , and happy are those who listen to the words of this prophetic message and obey what is written in this book! For the time is near when all these things will happen.” (Rev 1:3)

THE UNTRODDEN PATH

The Holy Bible says, “You spoke to me, and I listened to every word. I belong to You, Lord God Almighty, and so your words filled my heart with joy and happiness.”  (Jere. 15:16)

The disciple John had been favored to share private moments with Jesus. As part of the inner circle of three, he saw Jesus’ transfiguration, witnessed the Lord bringing back to life Jairus’ daughter and waited for Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. He was the only disciple mentioned as being near the Cross at Jesus death and one of the very first to learn of Christ’s Resurrection.

John wore an amazing nickname ‘Son of Thunder’ for his stormy personality. Somehow the above processes changed John from 'Thunder' to 'Love' and the thunder clouds broke apart and he eventually got a new nickname ‘Apostle of Love’.

Dear devotees of Christ, getting to know Jesus changes a person. The disciple John’s personality clearly explains it.

In his Gospel, John addresses Jesus as WORD. He says: In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was God. Again in his Gospel (1:14) says that, “The Word became Flesh and He dwells among us.” Alleluia!! Amen!!

The Word became a person and He is called Immanuel- God is with us.

The Bible is not simply a book of great literature to be admired and revered – it is Good News for all people everywhere – a message to be understood as well as to be applied in daily life and to Christ be the glory forever and ever. Amen!

St. Paul says, “When we brought you God’s message, you heard it and accepted it not as a man’s message but as God’s message which indeed it is. For God is at work in you who believe.” (1Thess. 2:13)

It is wise to keep in mind that no prophetic message ever came just from the will of man, but men were under the control of the Holy Spirit, as they spoke the message that came from God.

Since it is God’s Word, it has never failed and will never fail too. Yes, the Book of Romans states that --- the promise of God does not fail.

Bible proves and even today through the followers it continues to prove that the Word is trustworthy and whoever accepts it, will attain its glory and they are the rank holders of eternal victory.

Word produces best fruit.

Sovereign Lord says, “My word is like the snow and the rain, that come down from the sky to water the earth. They make the crops grow and provide seed for sowing and food to eat. It will do everything I sent it to do.” (Isaiah 55:10-12)

In Biblical basis, whoever accepts the Word faithfully, trusts it and put to practice- it will guide him, and he will neither fail nor be destroyed.

Grass withers and flowers fade but the Word of God endures forever.

Lord told, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” (Luke 21:33)

The disciple of Lord Jesus also gives us the surety that the Word is the Good News that remains forever. (Peter) Alleluia!! Amen!!

When Sovereign Lord spoke to Prophet Jeremiah, he replied to the Lord, “You spoke to me, and I listened to every word. I belong to You, Lord God Almighty, and so your words filled my heart with joy and happiness.”  (Jere.15:16)

Similarly Prophet Ezekiel says that the Word of God tasted to him as sweet as honey. (Ezek 3:3)

The Word of God is sweeter than honey, fills the heart with joy and happiness, is trustworthy since it will endure forever and it will also produce good fruit to eat and seeds to sow!

If we deny its truth where do we go in search of peace and prosperous life?

“Those who receive Me are invited to the Knowledge of truth and experience of fruitful life.”

Isn't it high time since you had one Good News as your own?
