Hi Ratan, I appreciate you so much, and your beautiful way of memorizing scripture. I am at this time learning spanish and I have a spanish/english bible which is helpful, so your words are very encouraging, and I shall try what you have recommended. I don't memorize as easily as when I was younger, but love to get HIS amazing Word deeper and deeper in my heart. Bless you my brother.

Love in Christ
MaryAnn

PS I love LT's comment below, and I'm going to ask him if he would send me his study on sanctification.

Hello Ratan

Good to meet you, would love to have you as my friend. I also love Gospel music, my favourite song is Mighty to Save by Hillsongs. You should get the Hillsongs Kids DVD for the children in your school. My young daughter loves to dance and sing to that DVD, it has taught her to worship.

Take good care of yourself, chat soon.

Your sister in Christ

Hi Ratan. I was successful YEAH GOD !!!
YEsterday I memorized 3 verses Ephesians 4:14-16. Thanks for the encouragement. Your method works, but it actually took me an hour to memorize 3 verses...yet it is worth it.

Sorry I don't have any other method other than repetition. It takes work, but our Precious Lord is worth it all.

Love to you in Christ,
MaryAnn

One Step At A Time

One step at a time is the best way to go
When going through life and traveling in the direction of your dreams
The best way to get ahead is the simpliest way:
Take one step at a time
Don’t look over your shoulder
If you do, you’ll feel the weight of all your yesterdays upon you
And don’t worry about what lies ahead
By the time you get to the bend in the road or the crest of the hill
You’re going to be better and stronger than you ever were before
Just go one step at a time
One day at a time
And you’ll find a rich, thankful life you never thought you could afford….

Praise The Lord,
God is always doing great things. I am humbled and blessed that the Lord chose me for such an awesome calling as He has. The gifts of the Lord are so wonderful, and they are an extension of God's Heart, and His Will. Yet even greater than His gifts, is this wonderful, dynamic, intimate, invaluable relationship that I have with Him!Yes above all is my relationship with the Lord, it is the heartbeat of my soul. Their is something so amazing about the gifts of God. They are so heavenly, and they literally change the lives of others in the best possible way. Yet along with those gifts come great responsibility, commitment,unexplainable battles and , degrees of lonliness, levels of warfare,sometimes pain, rejection, and isolation, learning new levels of obedience, and submission, sacrifice, dedication, a lot of growth, and nurturing by the the Spirit of the Lord, a lot of time in the Word of God, and a lot of time in prayer, a hunger and thirst for the Lord and His Word. I never asked for any gifts, but the Lord gave them to me anyway. Sometimes because of the level of Anointing that God uses me in, I don't feel like I am worthy because I am in "awe of God's Glory,Power, and Majesty. Yet the Lord chose me first, and then I chose Him!
God Bless You, Prophetess Renee

Have A Bless Day!
A person cannot fully understand the magnitude of God's Power, Greatness, and Strength, until they have a circumstance, that no one or nothing can bring them out of. God has to literally rescue us, and snatch us out of harms way. Sometimes the cares of this world, and our personal experiences overwhelm us. Yet to every problem Jesus Christ has the remedy, and the answer.To be lifted by God, is to be infused with His Strength, infused with His Power, encompassed with His Love, Drenched by the Covering of His Glory, our minds being kept by The Spirit of Life , and His loving hands, putting our broken hearts back together again.
He is the mender of our souls,The Lord is our only company in our abandonment, He is the satisfaction in our emptiness, He is healing in our sickness, He is our defense against the wiles of the enemy, He is Our shield in our weaknesses, Our Joy in sadness, He is the Glory in our humiliation, He is our love in our loneliness, He is our comfort in our grief and mourning, He is our hope on our darkest day, our light when we cannot see our way, the Truth in the midst of every lie, the Living Water in every one of our dessert experiences, Our Peace in chaos, Our Sufficiency in our shortcomings, Our Revelation in the midst of human reasoning, Our Holiness that keeps us in right standing, He is our Mercy when guilt tries to consumes us,
Jesus Christ is the Lord of Lords, and the King of Kings, He is
the Ruler and Creator of all things.
Have a great Day and be strengthen in every area of your life. May God lift you up, high above your enemies!I am praying for you.

God Bless you day :) Thank You for your prayers

Thank you my brother,
The LOrd Bless you and watch over you.
Your brother and friend in Christ

BEHOLD, I AM THE LORD, THE GOD OF ALL FLESH. IS
THERE ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR ME?
( JEREMIAH 32:27 *NKJV )

When you are facing something that seems impossible
to you, have faith, for nothing is impossible with God on
your side!" After all is it not written: HE WHO IS IN YOU IS
GREATER THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD.
( 1 JOHN 4:4 )

So don't give up when facing what may seem impossible
to you. For you do believe in miracles don't you? Well isn't
a miracle something that has happened that seemed
impossible at the time?"

Also remember that Jesus said: "HAVE FAITH IN GOD.
FOR ASSUREDLY, I SAY TO YOU, WHOEVER SAYS TO
THIS MOUNTAIN, BE REMOVED AND BE CAST INTO THE
SEA, AND DOES NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, BUT
BELIEVES THAT THOSE THINGS HE SAYS WILL COME
TO PASS, HE WILL HAVE WHATEVER HE SAYS.
THEREFORE I SAY TO YOU. WHATEVER THINGS YOU
ASK WHEN YOU PRAY, BELIEVE THAT YOU RECEIVE
THEM, AND YOU WILL HAVE THEM." ( MARK 11:21-24 )

Therefore the next time you find yourself thinking that
something can not be done; remember the first verse of this
message and, WATCH, STAND FAST IN THE FAITH, BE
BRAVE, BE STRONG. LET ALL THAT YOU DO BE DONE
WITH LOVE. ( 1 CORINTHIANS 16:13-14 ) For then if it is
God's Will for you, it can be done indeed!

Such a wonderful service it sounds like that you g ave! love the healing part of it! Jesus main theme other then his salvation of course would be healing. He went around healing and said" Even greater things then this may you do" With the Holy spirit with us, healing sholuld be following us. We do not always get healed but sometimes through the pain we learn and grwo closer to God. But if it is right to be healed we will be and we do need to pray for heling for all. We should annoint them with oil and heal, But not all are given this gift.. Bless you that you are one that has been given this gift! May I ask for prayers? For pain, that I have chronically and for my sons blood clot to dissolve on its own. Thank you!!
God Bless you, Ratan

Praise the Lord Ratan.

Am glad God brought me to this site and meet such good people.

My parents are still Hindus. They are yet to be saved. Request your prayers for them to be saved.

May God bless you and use you mightily for his glory. Kezia

Value Life...........

Long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.
Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.
Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health , time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back , we will realize that we don't really need that much , but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition.



______________________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _____


Life is definitely

not about work!
Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.. Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time.
You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile , Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!

Watch your thoughts ; they become words.

Watch your words ; they become actions.

Watch your actions ; they become habits..

Watch your habits; they become character .

Watch your character; it becomes your destiny

So enjoy every day as yours.........

God bless you and your ministery, our actual pastor was living in Inda not long ago and told us how difficult it is to evangelize there. May God open doors to you that were closed before, guide you with his everlasting light where shadow cannot hide and give you victory in your life.
Blessings brother

FROM THE FULLNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL
RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER.
( JOHN 1:16 *NIV )

Always remember to count our blessings each day, and to
thank God for them! For no matter what we have, when we
look around us, we find others who have less! So never feel
sorry for ourself, instead start counting our blessings, for that
should cheer u up indeed.

Now we know that when things disappoint us, we are sad and
often depressed. However it is written that we should: BE
JOYFUL ALWAYS; PRAY CONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN
ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU
IN JESUS CHRIST. ( 1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-18 )

Therefore, never feel that God doesn't hear our prayers
because a prayer isn't answered the way we want, or something
goes wrong in our life. For our Heavenly Father always knows
what is best for us, and: HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU NOR
FORSAKE YOU. ( DEUTERONOMY 31:6 )

So my friend, remember to always: GIVE THANKS TO THE
LORD, CALL ON HIS NAME; MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE
NATIONS WHAT HE HAS DONE for you!
( 1 CHRONICLES 16:8 )

In closing, MAY THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST, AND THE LOVE OF GOD, AND THE
FELLOWSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU ALL,
now and always! Amen! ( 2 CORINTHIANS 13:14 )

Hi Ratan it is good to meet you. Wow you have a lot of responcibility for your age. God give you grace and much support from others in your good work.
In the love of Jeus.
Bob

I bless you and your ministry with God's blessing. keep up the youth movement

What a great testimony Ratan, I come into agreement with you for Victor to become a believer. He has called you therefore I believe God is working. I am an intercessor and gifted in evangelism so it is my cry for salvation of lost souls. Some of the greatest Christians today had Victors questions. God can answer them all and when He receives christ the light will come on and He will be mighty for God's kingdom. It was no axident that you met him. There is a wonderful pastor here on this net from India also His name is Yoal Charnock, I think I spelled his last name wrong but search Yoal in members and you will locate him.
In the love of Jesus.
Bob

Soul food for the Day: The CENTER...

The center chapter of the BIBLE is Psalm 118.. there are 594 chapters before and after Psalm 118
And if we will add this we will get 1188... in which the center verse of the BIBLE is PSALM 118:8
What is the significant of Psalm 118:8 in God's perfect will for our lives?
It is better to trust in the LORD, than to put confidence in man.-- Psalm 118:8


When things get tough, always remember faith doesn't get you around trouble..
it gets you through it!
When you relinquish the desire to control your future you obtain happiness...

Prayer:
Father God, bless my friend in whatever it is that you know he/she may be needing this day....
May their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as they seek to have closer relationship with you. Amen...

Dear Pastor may God keep giving you many many more opportunities to proclaim the Word of Life Jesus to many many . I pray with you for the man you were praying with that the love of God will gush forth in his life by the Holy Spirit and set him free from a spirit of fear and superstition. God grant to you great wisdom to minister the grace of god to a needy and oppressed people without Jesus.

In the love of Jesus
Bob

My Dear Son,

I have not had time to see what is available. I will.
Take Great Care my Love,

A FAITH THAT WORKS THROUGH LOVE
2 PETER 1: 1-9

In 2 Peter chapter two Peter shares a some remarkable things about how to live out the Christian life. In verse three he says that Jesus has the power of God, by which He has given us everything we need to live for, and serve God. He goes on to say that we have these provisions because we know Him because Jesus called us by his glorious goodness.

In these provisions that God has given to us contains according to verse four, “great and precious promises.” And as we shall see as we read further into chapter two that with these provisions, or gifts, that we can share in God's nature and that we won't be ruined by the world and with it's evil desires.

Peter says that because we have these blessings that we should do our best to add some very important things to our lives. Notice the list begins with faith, then the list ends with a God kind of love.

All these things mentioned are fruits coming forth out of our lives because of our relation with the Lord and are the fruit that the Spirit produces in our lives. (see Galatians 5:22-23 )

Add to your faith, add goodness; that is as you are growing in your faith, to develop virtue.

To your goodness, add knowledge; that is in exercising goodness,develop knowledge.
“Study to show yourself approved to God, a workman that needs not
to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” ( 2 Timothy 2:15 )

To your knowledge, add self-control; that is in growing in knowledge, develop self control.

To your self-control, add patience; that is in developing self control, allow God to make you more patient.

To your patience, add service for God; that is as we becoming more patient, we can began to serve God.

To your service for God, add kindness for your brothers and sisters in Christ;

And to this kindness, add love; that is while we showing kindness begin to exercise the love of God.

“And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” ( Romans 5:5 )

“If all these things are in you and are growing, they will help you to be useful and productive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But anyone who does not have these things cannot see clearly. He is blind and has forgotten that he was made clean from his past sins.” ( 2Peter 1:8-9 )

As I considered this passage it really speaks to my heart that our relationship with God begins with faith, and ends up with love, from something that is a substance of things hoped for, to a having the love of God poured into our hearts to touch this hurting world through our lives.

"Faith works through love." ( Gal. 5:6 )

Prayer Father God help us to learn to add to our faith those things that will makes us into useful vessels for your love to touch the world through us. In Jesus name amen.

Hello my new friend, Ratan, I'm so glad you chose me to be your friend now we can really chat about whatever you want to it is always nice to have new friends in the Lord again thank you

Hi Ratan, God continue to bless your labor of love for the Lord.
I have 2 friends who are heading over to India in the middle of October on a short term trip for 2 weeks. One is a Pastor named Peter, and the other is Dave who have been ministering 3 or four times a year there for the last few years. I do not know which part at this moment. So please pray for them.

Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might, may you have all your needs met for you to continue to serve our Lord.

In the love of Jesus
Bob

Lyrics:
Oh that you would burst from the heavens
And how the mountains would quake
But you would make the nations tremble
All your enemies would learn of your fame

How then shall we be saved
How can we be saved

Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You
Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You

Like autumn leaves we all wither, we all fall down
Swept away by the wind, swept away
Oh have mercy on us father, father
Please don't remember our sin

How then shall we be saved
How can we be saved

Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You
Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You

Oh lord you are our father
We're the clay but you're the potter
We are all formed by your hand
According to your plan

Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You
Since the world began
No ear has heard, no eye has seen
A God like you, Oh, a God like You

for friendship

I just came across your message Pastor Ratan, so forgive my tardiness in answering. But God knows all things, so He knew I would find your message even now and respond, as He does not exist in time.
O Sovereign Lord, Lover of our souls. You know what we have need of even before we ask. Would You touch Ratan’s mother with Your healing hand, and give the doctors wisdom to help. I also ask for his younger brother’s healing from jaundice. You are the Great Healer, and without You we can do nothing. I pray Your healing power and anointing on Pastor Ratan and his family. Would You provide what is needed for their church, and bless this precious brother with Your anointing power. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit. Give him wisdom and understanding so he and Paul will hear Your voice and obey, that your will be accomplished on their mission trip. Lord You do all things well. You are good and we love You, and praise Your mighty Name forever. Amen!

My dear Brother my heart leaps for joy when i think about you and you continued diligence in spreading the Good news in difficult circumstances.

In the love of KJesus
Bob

I pray with my brother Ratan for these prayer needs;
1. My Friend Jyoti & Family
2. My Aunt Kamakhya& Family
3. My Uncle Gopal & Family
4. My Brother Vara Kumar
5. My Aunt Sanasamma & Family.
6. For our Town and Country.
Father you are able to meet all the needs mentioned above. You know the details to what these names represent. I thank you that you are the Lord who provides, you are the Lord who heals, you are the Lord who restores and you are the Lord who sets the captives free.

Help Ratan to cast all his cares upon you every day because you care for him. Give him peace and contentment and continue to use him mightily for your purposes. In Jesus name, amen.

In the love of Jesus

PLEASE KEEP ON SERVING THE LORD IN THIS SITE BECAUSE YOU ARE NEEDED HERE. GBY

Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:

Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
Thank you so very much

With love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B

PLEASE KEEP ON PRAYING FOR THE UNSAVED AND SINNING ONES ALL OVER THE WORLD BECAUSE JESUS IS COMING SOONEST. JBY

I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.

With much love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B
