TRUSTING GOD FOR THE FUTURE

“Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.”
(2 Kings 7:1)

Many were filled with panic and worry.Fear spread throughout Israel. The army of Aram was besieging the land. Food was running out and there was a “great famine.” Cornered by difficult conditions, the king blamed Elisha.

But Elisha was not afraid. In fact, He was confident in God. So confident that he declared specifically what would happen in the future. What he prophesied didn’t seem likely. But he had heard from God, and knew that His Word was true, even giving advice to others based on this confidence.

This is the kind of confidence  all of us need to have in God. We can find ourselves worrying about the economy, relationships, health, or events in the world. But the Bible teaches us that God already knows the future. That, if we trust Him, we can have peace. That He is ready to take away our burdens, meet our needs, and direct our steps.

This kind of confidence is available to all who know God intimately and trust Him. In the midst of any situation, He offers us His peace. His wisdom. And His Word tells us that He knows that future, and that we can trust Him.

What issues are you facing? Do you find your heart and mind filled with fear and worry? Or are you totally trusting in God?

Commit; your needs to Him, no matter how serious they might seem, or how helpless you might feel. Don’t be besieged with worry, doubt, or fear. Seek to know Him more intimately. Read His Word with more intensity. Seek to be more sensitive to His Spirit. And trust Him, for today, and the future.

A new Beginning

A NEW BEGINNING 1. Be with people (Mark 1:1-8) God’s ultimate plan to save the world was about to be fulfilled through his own son, Jesus Christ. John the Baptist was supposed to prepare the way. John the Baptist was there with the people. The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went to meet John the Baptist. They were open about their life, and even ready to be baptized by him. Though John was dressed in an unusual manner, the people came to him. John was with the people. People need help. They want to talk about their life, hurt, ill-feelings, struggles to forgive, and most of all forgiveness of sin from God. As a disciple, we should imitate John, i.e. being with people. A disciple’s lifestyle should be surrounded by people. 2. Be in step with the Spirit (Mark 1:9-13) After Jesus was baptized, he received the spirit, which descended on him like a dove. God was excited about his son, as we see he openly declared his love for him. The scripture say

கிறிஸ்தவத்தை புறக்கணிப்பது ஏன்?*

*தலித் இந்துக்களே கிறிஸ்தவத்தை புறக்கணிப்பது ஏன்?* ஒருமுறை ஒரு இந்து சகோதரன், "சார், இயேசு கிறிஸ்து அற்புதங்கள் செய்வதால் அவரை நாங்கள் கடவுளாக ஏற்றுக்கொள்ள வலியுறுத்துகிறீர்கள். இதை நாங்கள் வரவேற்கிறோம். தாராளமாக உங்கள் கடவுளையும் எங்கள் கடவுளாக ஏற்றுக்கொள்கிறோம். ஆனால், அதேபோல, மேல்மருவத்தூரில் இருக்கும் ஆதிபராசக்தியும் அற்புதம் செய்வதால் எங்கள் கடவுளையும் உங்கள் கடவுளாக வணங்கமுடியுமா சார்? நாலுமாவடிக்கு மக்கள் கூட்டமாக விடுதலையை தேடி வருவதுபோல எங்கள் கோயில்களுக்கும் கூட்டமாக மக்கள் விடுதலையைத்தேடி வருகிறார்களே சார்" என்று சாந்தமாக கேட்டார். இந்த கேள்வி என்னை மிகவும் சிந்திக்கவைத்தது. வெறுமனே அற்புதங்களை செய்துகாட்டி மதமாற்றம் செய்ய மட்டும்தான் இயேசு வந்தாரா? அப்படியானால் அற்புதங்கள் செய்யும் வலிமை உடைய எதையும் கடவுள் என்று ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளலாமா? "இறைவன் ஒருவனே" என்ற கொள்கையை கிறிஸ்தவர்களாகிய நாம் கற்றிருக்கிறோமே! கடவுள் அல்லாத சக்திகளாலும் அற்புதங்களை செய்யமுடியுமானால் உண்மையான கடவுளை அடையாளம் காண்பது எப்படி? என்றெல்லாம் அன்றே நான் தேட ஆரம்பித்துவிட்டேன். மறை
