Selam amlak naakum yehwat,

Here is a continuation of the lastly posted message " the room ... with
files of my life"

N.B.
-Our sisters Lula, Elilta, Yirgalem and brothers daniel Ghebrenugus and
Daniel Zemikiel, we are glad to have you in the email list of the recently
started Orthodox Tewahdo Believers, O.T.B. fellowship in North America,
hoping to hear more from you, I say on behalf of all our fellows welcome
to your fellowship. You can get further more information about our vision,
activities etc, from any one near by to you, or you can call/email me.


                          The Room... with files of my life (PART II)

Defeated and utterly helpless, I returned the file to its slot. Leaning my
forehead against the wall, I let out a long self-pitying sigh. And then I
saw it. The title bore "People I Have Shared The Gospel With." The handle
was brighter than those around it, newer, almost unused. I pulled on its
handle and a small box not more than three inches long fell into my
hands. I could count the cards it contained on one hand.

And then the tears came. I began to weep. Sobs so deep that the hurt
started in my stomach and shook through me. I fell upon my knees and
cried. I cried out of shame, from the overwhelming shame of it all. The
rows of file shelves swirled in my tear-filled eyes. No one must ever,
ever know of this room. I must lock it up and hide the key.

But then as I pushed away the tears, I saw Him. No, please not Him. Not
here. Oh, anyone but Jesus. I watched helplessly as He began to open the
files and read the cards. I couldn't bear to watch His response. And in
the moments I could bring myself to look at His face, I saw a sorrow
deeper than my own. He seemed to intuitively go to the worst boxes. Why
did he have to read every one?

Finally He turned and looked at me from across the room. He looked at me
with pity in His eyes. But this was a pity that didn't anger me. I dropped
my head, covered my face with my hands and began to cry again. He walked
over and put His arm around me. He could have said so many things. But He
didn't say a word. He just cried with me.

Then He got up and walked back to the wall of files. Starting at one end
of the room, He took out a file and, one by one, began to sign His name
over mine on each card.

"No!" I shouted rushing to Him. All I could find to say was "No, no," as I
pulled the card from Him. His name shouldn't be on these cards. But there
it was, written in red so rich, so dark, so alive. The name of Jesus
covered mine. It was written in His blood.

He gently took the card back. He smiled a sad smile and began to sign the
cards. I don't think I'll ever understand how He did it so quickly, but
the next instant it seemed I heard Him close the last file and walk back
to my side. He placed His hand on my shoulder and said, "It is finished."

I stood up, and He led me out of the room. There was no lock on its
door. There were still cards to be written.

Selam amlak naakum Yehwat,

Here is a message for the day:

                                The Room

In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the
room. There were no distinguishing features save for one wall covered with
small index card files. They were like the ones in libraries that list
titles by author or subject in alphabetical order. But these files, which
stretched from floor to ceiling and seemingly endlessly in either
direction, had very different headings.

As I drew near the wall of files, the first to catch my attention was one
that read "People I Have Liked." I opened it and began flipping through
the cards. I quickly shut it, shocked to realize that I recognized the
names written on each one.

And then without being told, I knew exactly where I was. This lifeless
room with its small files was a crude catalog system for my life. Here
were written the actions of my every moment, big and small, in a detail my
memory couldnt match.

A sense of wonder and curiosity, coupled with horror, stirred within me as
I began randomly opening files and exploring their content. Some brought
joy and sweet memories; others a sense of shame and regret so intense that
I would look over my shoulder to see if anyone was watching. A file named
"Friends" was next to one marked "Friends I Have Betrayed."

The titles ranged from the mundane to the outright weird. "Books I Have
Read," "Lies I Have Told," "Comfort I Have Given," "Jokes I Have Laughed
At." Some were almost hilarious in their exactness: "Things Ive Yelled at
My Brothers." Others I couldnt laugh at: "Things I Have Done in My
Anger," "Things I Have Muttered Under My Breath at My Parents."
I never ceased to be surprised by the contents. Often there were many more
cards than I expected. Sometimes fewer than I hoped.

I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the life I had lived. Could it be
possible that I had the time in my short life to write each of these
thousands or even millions of cards? But each card confirmed this
truth. Each was written in my own handwriting. Each signed with my own
signature.

When I came to a file marked "Lustful Thoughts," I felt a chill run
through my body. I pulled the file out only an inch, not willing to test
its size, and drew out a card. I shuddered at its detailed content. I felt
sick to think that such a moment had been recorded.

An almost animal rage broke on me. One thought dominated my mind: No one
must ever see these cards! No one must ever see this room! I have to
destroy them! In an insane frenzy I yanked the file out. Its size didnt
matter now. I had to empty it and burn the cards. But as I took it at one
end and began pounding it on the floor, I could not dislodge a single
card. I became desperate and pulled out a card, only to find it as strong
as steel when I tried to tear it.

My Dear Friends in Christ:

                    You are the Light of the World

The light of God's love permeates our entire being, causing us to desire Him
over the idols of this dark world.  In Matthew 5:14-16, Jesus told His
disciples, "You are the light of the world."
Technology, human reasoning, or a one world view cannot satisfy the inner
longing of mankind's heart.  Only the love of God can fill the emptiness of
a broken soul.  Because Christ lives in us through the presence of the Holy
Spirit, we are His lights of hope to a lost and dying world.  The apostle
Paul told us to "Shine as lights among people of this world" (Phillippians
2:15).
Does Jesus burn in your heart?  Does it shine from within you like light on
a dark night bringing hope the hopless and lifting those who are struggling?
May the following prayer be your:
"Lord, make me a reflection of Your love and gift of salvation to someone
who needs you. Give me the strength to accept your unfailing love for my own
life, and teach me how to worship in a greater way."
____________________     AMEN,AMEN AND AMEN.____________________

Hello, sons and daughters of the lord and savior.
This message was very encouraging to me.  Just this morning I asked my self
the same question.  I feel so guilty for not praising the Lord the way I am
supposed to.  I wish I could get up in the morning and sing my heart out for
the lord and praise him like I never have before.  But for my self it's so
hard because as soon as my eyes open in the morning I have two baby boy's
waiting to be feed.  But I guess Aim just making excesses for my self.
Because any one who is dedicated to the lord should be able to pray or
worship him through thick and thin.  But for my self it has been so hard for
me.  But the lord is always by my side no matter what I do or say for he has
blessed me with a family and two beautiful children.  But I do still feel a
lack in my faith on my behalf.  Everything has become so over whelming for
me.  But I do want some kind of intervention from the lord.  It has become so
difficult for me with school and raising a family.  I should not be making
these things an issue because other people have more difficult things in
their lives than mine.  But pray for those people the lord will be by their
side.  Thank so much for giving a reality check we get so caught up in the
circular world sometimes we forget.  Thank you again for the this message
which seems to be sent just for me.  This is what they mean when they say the
lord works in mysterious ways.

P.S
Please keep me in your prayers as wilI.



                                                 YOUR DEAR SISTER
                                                     MRS.SALEM SHEMONDY

Dear Sisters and Brothers,
Peace be unto you from the Almighty God. How are you all doing?

This is my message for you today.

     I THINK I MEAN IT, BUT DO I REALLY MEAN IT ?

When I sing a song in the church or in my prayers, I always ask myself if
I meant it or not. Do you do the same? Some of the songs we sing are
promises we make infront of God. In our songs, we tell him that we are
going to Praise , Respect, Serve .... Him, and we keep on telling him that
we will always be His children, and will never be attracted to the world
and follow Him forever. This reminds me the verses Mark 14:27-31, where
Jesus predicts Peter's denial.(see also Mathew 26:31-35).

" You will all fall away" Jesus told them," for it is written: I will
strike the shephred, and the sheep will be scattered. But after I have
risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee"
Peter declared" Even if all fall away, I will not."
"I tell you the truth", Jesus answered,"today-yes tonight- before the
rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times".
But Peter insisted emphatically,"Even if I have to die with you, I will
never disown you" And all the others said the same.

Everybody knows this part of the Bible,but I want to  compare it with
myown daily life.
  - Peter Promised that he will not fall down. I understand that Peter must
have had some kind of determination when he said that.
    .... And I sing or talk to God daily and promise to Him that I will
respect and serve Him. I always feel that I mean it when I say this.

  - Peter disowned God three times within the same day, even before it was
24 hrs when he said he will not betray Him.
    .... And I See myself hurting God many times(not just three times as
Peter did but many times) right after my prayers and Songs.

  - Peter, when he swore to the people that he doesn't know Jesus, he
immediately heard the crow of the rooster and remembered what Jesus has
spoken to him.(Mark 14:72)
   .... And I fail to give Him the respect He deserves, and find myself
trapped in the worldly activities and forget to serve Him. When I do so, I
immediately start to stumble, lose my balance and desperately seek his
support before I fall. I cry sorely, and pray again.

Do you all notice the resemblance? But God knows that we will fall away
, and  that He promises that He will still take us with Him
despite our failures.

Prayer
------
" Lord,  thank You in Jesus' name. You are so faithful in Your word that
You have never forgotten me to be alone. But I always break my
promises. Lord, I want to mean what I say and sin in front of You, and be
faithful in my word. Please God, give me the strength to live what I
believe in, and serve you in truth. Change me o' God. Thank You for Your
untiring forgiveness. In the name of Jesus, Amen.


May the Grace of Lord be with you all!!

Your sister,
Senait Tecle.

Selam amlak naakum Yehwat,

When I read our brother ermias's message, I started to remind my self the
wonderful deeds of our father. Since the time i realized his fatherhood,he
is all in all to me, I can say, I am nothing with out him, like the fish
in a dry land, so he is not only this or that he is all in all, and i
would say, LORD PLEASE BLESS THE REST OF MY DAYS.

more grace. I praise to Lord, today, tommorow and forever.

I am very sorry for my delay. First I would like to introduce my self.
I was Fnotebrhan (Qdsti Mariam) Church.
Now I am member of Medhani Alem (Mekane Hiwet) Church.

Yes, I love you God forever, because I couldn't get like you. You are my
power and peace. " The Lord is my shephered, I shall not want, he makes me
lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters, he restores my
soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake."
Psalm 23:1-3 God give me the everlasting peace, grace and love. On Gospel of
John Chapter 14:21 JESUS said " He was has my commendments and keeps them, he
it is who loves me, and he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will
love him and manifest my self to him." So God love me and I love you. You know,
that I love you. John 21:15

I like this song.

Greeting to you all in the most high name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ.

Dear beloved brothers and sisters in the last part we have learned that
why  some of our prayers remain un answered.   Here is it continues in
part V
                       I Like To Meet God On My Knees - V

God told his prophet, Ezekiel, "Son of dust, these men worship idols in
their heart -
Should I let then ask me any thing? " But the strongest words I have
ever read
about praying in Unrighteousness are found in Proverbs 28:9 - "HE THAT
TURNETH
AWAY HIS EAR FROM HEARING THE LAW, EVEN HIS PRAYER SHALL BE[AN]
ABOMINATION."

The Books of the Old and new testament are unanimous in declaring the
God's
pleasure in righteousness and displeasure in sinfulness. Jesus was the
most
successfull man in the history, and he was the man of prayer.a man with
out sin.
The reason he received so many answers to prayer is found in John
8:29,. He said
,".... I do always those things that please him[God the father]"

This verse is one of the most powerful scriptual bases for the doctrine
of the
Sanctification that I have ever found. You can do many things that are
not illegal or
specifically warend against the scriptures. However the key Question is
like this :

Do your actions please God.?If not, change your ways. Correct your
mistakes.
Straighten your life, and you will begin to see your prayers answered

With Love In christ

Yesterday when I came to the office I opened my e-mail & started reading. But
Immediately my
boss start giving me orders which was really tough .Before I start complaining
,I was in the middle of Teodros's e-mail .And he was talking about taking the
challenges of the day to see God. I was really encouraged by that and took a
step to handle the assignments .The day ended in success and joy. That is why I
said, I couldn't sit without thanking my brothers for their efforts &
dedication.

I was introduced to this group through Efrem (Asmara). I am member of the
Victory fellowship in
Addis (x-Indian student's fellowship). We have got  fellowships in different
towns in India,Addis,Asmara,Kenya,Uganda & in USA.Our vision is to reach out the
students
population & also help the local churches there. We normally send at least two
evangelists
to India every year.

God bless you all & continue with your service to the Lord

Selam amlak naakum Yehwat,

Here is a message for the day:

                                      ..........  Anyway

                      People are often unreasonable, illogical, and
self-centered;
                                      Forgive them anyway.

            If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
                                        Be kind anyway.

        If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some
true enemies;
                                        Succeed anyway.

                         If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
                                   Be honest and frank anyway.

                  What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
                                         Build anyway.

                       If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
                                       Be happy anyway.

                     The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
                                        Do good anyway.

                    Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
                            Give the world the best you've got anyway.

                      You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
                            It was never between you and them anyway.

                                        - Mother Teresa -

Beloved ones,
     It's a previlage to be part of the family of the living God. The bible
says:  «Before I was aware, my soul set me Over the chariots of my noble
people.» (Song of Solomon 6:12, NASB). It's such a wonderful "portion and
cup" that we have even before we realize it. Praise Him who made this to
pass.

     I would like to commend those people who are endavouring to make
fellowship among the children of God. I'll do my best to keep you in my
prayers. So help me God.

     I think I'm going to be a little noisy for a first-timer. There's one
thing that I would like to remind you because it's been getting more and
more heavy in my heart. Specially lately. This is about the obvious current
situation in our country. It looks like things are very quite. The
'international community' has been passive for a while. In fact, if you
followed the trend, tens of thousands of people have to die brutally to
triger a single letter or some kind of ambigious message which in essence
doesn't address the real problem. But who would expect justice from a world
that has traded poletics and diplomacy for honesty and fairness?

     It's quite ironic to realize that we have never been closer to peace as
now and, at the same time, we've never been farther from it. We've been
close in the sense that a plain and sound peace plan is on the table. If my
small knowledge in history counts, I've never heard of a peace plan that
goes to such details and time resolution. It enumerates each and every steps
on a daily basis and I know of no other peace plan that goes to such detail.
On the other hand, we've never been so far away from settlement that one
party thinks  only missiles can reach the other. God forbid!

    The thing that I want to remind you is this: Let's not be fooled by the
current calm and go to bed. It's such a deadly and decieving calm that might
be a precursor for more destruction unless you and me do our job. Let's wake
up and bend the knees of our hearts before the God who has shade such a
precious blood for his people. I could have been the one who's on the
for-front; I could have been the one who's at the brink of death. It could
have been me on whom the merciless piece of  glaring metal would fall. It
could have been you, either! How would you react if it were you? How
earnestly would you have prayed and entrusted your life to the hands of God
if it were you? Now, the ones who are practicaly on the forfront deserve no
less earnest prayer.

    The Bible says: "Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow
prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were
suffering." (Hebrews 13:3, NIV). It's high time we should soberly pray and
interesess for our brothers and sisters. Let's not forget the mom who's not
sure whether her loved one(s) will be back or not; who would pay anything to
see her child at least once more. The Lord our God knows how do deal with
this things; He knows to "..forgive the iniquity of [His] people and cover
all their sins." He knows the way to "...set aside all the wrath and turn
from fierce anger..". Yes He does! He knows how to comfort the hurt ones who
never knew there was a way they could be healed. He has a way to change our
sorrow to laughter. Let's not wait till trouble steps to our homes. In fact,
it already has.

    If you've been doing what you should, God bless you. Keep it up. If not,
it's not too late.

        " And give him no rest till He establishes Jerusalem and makes her
the praise of the earth." Isaiah 62:7


    It indeed is high time we should pray. Once again, so help us God.
With all my due respect. God bless you,

Ben.

Here below is verse for the day...

N.B.
- I have got your blessing messages, Alex and Feven.

               JOY OF BEING IN GOD'S PRESENCE

"You have let me experience the joys of life and the exquisite pleasures
of your own eternal presence."  Psalms 16:11

There are many great joys in life such as having a wonderful wife and a
happy marriage. There is the tremendous joy of having children and
watching them grow up in the nurture of the Lord. There is the joy of
grandchildren and great grandchildren that warm your heart in many special
ways. There is the joy of God's provision day by day for all of our
needs. The joy of being blessed by God so that we might be able to be a
blessing to others in need. We thank God for being able to help our
children in their times of need. The joy that God gives us through times
of trials which draw us closer to each other and closer to Him. There are
so many pleasures that bring us joy such as sports of all kinds that
excite us and give us joy as we succeed in them. The joy of hitting a golf
ball; long off the tee or sinking a put for a birdie. All these things
bring great joy to our hearts, but there is a joy that exceeds all of
these put together--That's the joy of being in God's presence. To feel His
love, to look into His eyes and to experience the warmth of His
compassion. To be loved just as you are by God Himself is the greatest joy
of all. You have never experienced the FULLNESS of joy until you have been
with the Master!

Here below is a message for the day:

N.B.
-Mekane hiwot magazine #6 and spiritual books by our brother Dr. Tecleab

brother Okbe (OKBE@...).
-Okbe, I will need #5 and #10 of the books and magazines respectively.


                                 I CHOOSE

It's quiet. It's early. My coffee is hot. The sky is still black. The
world is still asleep. The day is coming. In a few moments the day will
arrive. It will roar down the track with the rising of the sun.
The stillness of the dawn will be exchanged for the noise of the day. The
calm of the solitude will be replaced by the pounding pace of the human
race. The refuge of the early morning will be invaded by decisions to be
made and deadlines to be met. For the next twelve hours I will be
exposed to the day's demands. It is now that I must make a choice. And so
I choose:

I CHOOSE LOVE...
No occasion justifies hatred; no injustice warrants bitterness. I choose
love. Today I will love God and what God loves.

I CHOOSE JOY...
I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance. I will refuse the
temptation to be cynical...the tool of the lazy thinker. I will refuse to
see people as anything less than human beings, created by God. I will
refuse to see any problem as anything less than an opportunity to see God.

I CHOOSE PEACE...
I will live forgiven. I will forgive so that I may live.

I CHOOSE PATIENCE...
I will overlook the inconveniences of the world. Rather than complaining
that the wait is too long, I will thank God for a moment to pray. Instead
of clinching my fist at new assignments, I will face them with joy and
courage.

I CHOOSE KINDNESS...
I will be kind to the poor, for they are alone, kind to the rich, for they
are afraid, and kind to the unkind, for such is how God has treated me.

I CHOOSE GOODNESS...
I will go without a dollar before I take a dishonest one. I will see the
good in others when it is hard to find. I will confess before I will
accuse. I choose goodness.

I CHOOSE FAITHFULNESS...
Today I will keep my promises. My debtors will not regret their trust. My
associates will not question my word. My wife will not question my
love. And my children will never fear that their father will not come
home.

I CHOOSE GENTLENESS...
Nothing is won by force. I choose to be gentle. If I raise my voice, may
it be only in praise. If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer. If I
make a demand, may it be only of myself.

I CHOOSE SELF-CONTROL...
I am a spiritual being. After this body is dead, my spirit will soar. I
refuse to let what will not rule the eternal. I choose self-control.

LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS,
GENTLENESS, AND SELF-CONTROL...

The Fruit of the Spirit found in Galatians 5:22-23. To these I commit my
day. If I succeed, I will give thanks. If I fail, I will seek God's
face. And then when this day is done, I will place my head on my pillow
and rest.

May the most delicous sweet blessing of God be with
all of you.
Hello beloved christians, here is the continuation of
the message "I like to meet ...."

Our Prayers are not answered because

a. Because God wills differently

b. WE are not ready to recieve what you are requested

A Chsristian man in Cleve Land, Ohio back slid and
lost his Close relationship with God. One day he saw
his little Girl fall from a Second story window to the
pavement below. Instantly he cried out to God. He
continued to pray as he ran down the steps to her
side.But his prayers were unanswered. Afterward he
said, weeping, " I felt nothing. God was not there. I
was out of touch.

Some prayers are not answered because of sin :-

David the psalmist declared "If I regard iniquity in
my heart, the Lord will not hear me. Several years
ago, The Apostle John says "If our heart condemn us
not, THEN have we confidence toward God. And what
soever we ask ,we receive of Him,BECAUSE WE KEEP HIS
COMMANDMENTS, and do those things that are please his
sight" James the brother of our Lord and head of the
early church ,says The effectual fervent prayer of a
righteous man availeth much James 5 : 16

Righteousness through Jesus Christ is required of
every praying man if he hopes his prayers answered.
The Lord says, "Iam the wine ye are the branches, He
that abideth in me,and I in him the same brigeth much
fruit for with out me ye can do nothing. Stay close to
Jesus Christ. Purify your spirit by confessing your
spirit by
confessing your sins to Him and desiring that His will
be done in your Life.

Your brother in christ

              A letter from a Friend
               VERSE OF THE DAY


Dear Friend,

How are you? I just had to send a note to tell you how much I care about
you.
I saw you yesterday as you were talking with your friends. I waited all
day hoping you would want to talk with me, too. I gave you a sunset to
close your day and a cool breeze to rest you - and I waited. You never
came. It hurt me - but I still love you because I am your friend.

I saw you sleeping last night and longed to touch your brow so I spilled
moonlight upon your face. Again I waited, wanting to rush down so we could
talk.

I have so many gifts for you! I try to tell you in blue skies and in the
quiet green grass. I whisper it in leaves on trees and breathe it in
colors of flowers, shout it to you in mountain streams, give the birds
love songs to sing. I clothe you with warm sunshine and perfume the air
with nature scents. My love for you is deeper than the ocean, and bigger
than the biggest need in your heart!

Ask Me! Talk with Me! Please don't forget me. I have so much to share with
you!

I have chosen you and I will wait - because I love you.

Your friend,
JESUS

Dear brothers and sisters;

May grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
I would like to praise the Lord for what is happening in your (our) fellwoship.
Please don't neglect the grace upon you but keep on praying about it.
Beloved brothers and sisters, I would like to share with you the following
word of God.
  Our Lord said in Psalm 133 " How good and pleasant it is when brothers live
  together in Unity...the Lord bestows his blessing ever life for ever more"
  Prais God. As we read up on our bible there are a lot about the fellowship and
  the blessing. Even when Jesus when about to leave the world, one of His
  prayers was about fellowship which shows how important is to being together
  in heart and spirit. The devil also knows a lot about the benefits of a
  fellowship, what will happen next and he is always alert to weaken it.
  To see this with an example let's go to Mathew chapter 2. In this chapter we
get
  the followig " ..When king herod heard this (born of Jesus (king), he was dis
  turbed and all Jerusalem with  him" ---- " He ordered to kill all the boys
  in bethelehem". Herod highly disturbed when he heard the born of the King.
  When he notice that some thing is going to happen in Isreal. What he
  did was " he circulated a message to kill all the boys less than two years
  ald. This is mainly to kill the promise of the world.  Another example,
  In Nehemiah 2: 10 we got the ff. " When Sanballet the hornonite and Tobiah
  ammonit  official heard about this, they were very much disturbed that some
  one had come to promote the welfare of the Israelites". Then
  they did a lot againt Nehemiah and his vision.Here we find that when Nehemiah
  come with clear vision about Jerusalem, then those who are against that vision
  has been highly disturbed. This teach us that when the devil is aware ofsome
  promising thing, then he did his best to destroy that vision. As our Lord
  won over the devil and as Nehemiah and his group stand with the following
  in 2:20 :"--- The God of heaven will give us success. We his servants will
  start rebuilding------", we have to be alert and strong in faith about the
  fellowship to fullfil the plan of our Lord in Us and our country.
  God bless you all.

  I would like to thank the following and others for their blessing message:
  - Okbe, thank you very much for the nice comments.
  - Tedi, I have already informed your church hence he can phone on sunday
  - Mebre, many thanks for you message. Yonas has lefe to sawa for national
  service please do pray about him.
  God bless you again.

VERSE OF THE DAY.......

  GOD... "DO YOU LOVE ME MY SON/ DOUGHTER?" part II

"IF YOU TRULY LOVE ME......"

"THEN WHY IN TIMES OF PEACE DO YOU STRAY THE FURTHEST? WHY ONLY IN TIMES
OF TROUBLE DO YOU PRAY THE EARNEST?"

No answers. Only tears.

The Lord continued: "Why only sing at fellowships and retreats? Why seek
Me only in times of worship? Why ask things so selfishly? Why ask things
so unfaithfully?"

The tears continued to roll down my cheeks.

"Why are you ashamed of Me? Why are you not spreading the good news? Why
in times of persecution, you cry to others when I offer My shoulder to cry
on? Why make excuses when I give you opportunities to serve in My Name?"

I tried to answer, but there was no answer to give.

"You are blessed with life. I made you not to throw this gift away. I have
blessed you with talents to serve Me, but you continue to turn away. I
have revealed My Word to you, but you do not gain in knowledge. I have
spoken to you but your ears were closed. I have shown My blessings to you,
but your eyes were turned away. I have sent you servants, but you sat
idly by as they were pushed away. I have heard your prayers and I have
answered them all."

"DO YOU TRULY LOVE ME?"

I could not answer. How could I? I was embarrassed beyond belief. I had no
excuse. What could I say to this? When I my heart had cried out and the
tears had flowed, I said, Please forgive me Lord. I am unworthy to be Your
child."

The Lord answered, " That is My Grace, My child."

I asked, " Then why do you continue to forgive me? Why do You love me so?"

The Lord answered,

" Because you are My creation. You are my child.

I will never abandon you.

When you cry, I will have compassion and cry with you.

When you shout with joy, I will laugh with you.

When you are down, I will encourage you.

When you fall, I will raise you up.

When you are tired, I will carry you.

I will be with you till the end of days, and I will love you forever."

Never had I cried so hard before. How could I have been so cold? How could
I have hurt God as I had done?

I asked God, "How much do You love me?"

The Lord stretched out His arms, and I saw His nail-pierced hands. I bowed
down at the feet of Christ, my Savior. And for the first time, I truly
prayed.

I Like to Meet Lord On My Knees - III

Apostle James says "Ye ask and receive not, because ye ask amiss,that
ye may
consume upon on your lusts. James 4 : 3.Possibly you are asking God for
the wrong
things. your prayers may be sincerely misdirected. You may be asking
God for the
wrong thing for the right purpose and or the right thing for the wrong
purpose

III Some Prayers are not answered because of wrong motives Edwin
Robison said
"The world is a kind of kindergartenwhere a millions of bewildered
infants are trying
to spell God with Wrong blocks". If you and I are babes in Christ,
Immature
Christians, we will repeatedly ask God for the wrong things .

Apostle John declares "If ye ask ANY THING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, he
heareth
us: and if we know that he hear us .. we know that we desired him" I
John 4: 14,15

The big question is, How can you know what to pray for?

The only way you can really know the will of God regarding your prayer
requests is
to read His Word, the bible, as Carefully as you can and to walk in the
spirit. Jesus
Said "IF YOU ABIDE IN ME, AND MY WORDS ABIDE IN YOU YE SHALL ASK WHAT YE
WILL AND IT SHALL BE DONE UNTO YOU John 15 : 7

If you fill your mind with Holy Scripture(IF.. MY WORDS ABIDE IN
YOU..") amd fill
your heart and soul with the holy Spirit (..IF YOU ABIDE IN ME ...")
YOU CAN ASK
FOR ANY THING AND RECEIVE IT because you are praying according to God's
Perfect will John 15 : 7

Selam amlak naakum ykun beloved brothers and sisters,

How are you doing these days ? I am doing good, Glory to our father.
As we have informed you now we are working based on the general
schedule we set up during the meeting of the committee.
At the meeting we have made a job division among all the participants,
as every one understands as our vision is, our fellowship has also a
comprehensive nature, so we need active participation of all of you.
Let's remember what paul said to his people "But by the grace of God I
am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in
vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the
grace of God which was with me." 1Cor 15:10
Let's meditate to know what actually Paul is advising us today:
.................Grace Vs Laboure.


N.B.
- Ermi, add the following brothers to our list.
     "angesomt@..."

                     A Love Story Part (I)

One day, I woke early in the morning to watch the sunrise.

Ah the beauty of God's creation is beyond description.

As I watched, I praised God for His beautiful work.

As I sat there, I felt the Lord's presence with me.

He asked me, "Do you love me?"

I answered, "Of course, God! You are my Lord and Savior!"

Then He asked, "If you were physically handicapped, would you still
love me?"

I was perplexed. I looked down upon my arms, legs and the rest of my
body and wondered how many things I wouldn't;
be able to do, the things that I took for granted. And I answered, "It
would be tough Lord, but I would still love You."

Then the Lord said, "If you were blind, would you still love my
creation?"

How could I love something without being able to see it? Then I thought
of all the blind people in the world and how many
of them still loved God and His creation. So I answered, "It's hard to
think of it, but I would still love you."

The Lord then asked me, "If you were deaf, would you still listen to my
word?"

How could I listen to anything being deaf? Then I understood. Listening
to God's Word is not merely using our ears, but our
hearts. I answered, "It would be tough, but I would still listen to
Your word."

The Lord then asked, "If you were mute, would you still praise My
Name?"

How could I praise without a voice? Then it occurred to me: God wants
us to sing from our very heart and soul. It never
matters what we sound like. And praising God is not always with a song,
but when we are persecuted, we give God praise
with our words of thanks.

So I answered, "Though I could not physically sing, I would still
praise Your Name."

And the Lord asked, "Do you really love Me?"

With courage and a strong conviction, I answered boldly, "Yes Lord! I
love You because You are the one and true God!" I
thought I had answered well, but God asked, "THEN WHY DO YOU SIN?"

I answered, "Because I am only human. I am not perfect."

I Like To Meet My Lord On My Knees - II

Did you checked with Our Lord Jesus whether he is talking to you. Are
you talking
with Our Lord ?.If not Please establish quite time before the God. Dont
delay on
this. This is my humble request. Dont wait until you are forced to do
so by GOD.

Many Christians use pauls incident as a cover - up for their unbeleif.
Instead of
hanging on and praying on through on a matter of deliverance, they have
given up
and used the throne as a way of escape. Before give up on prayer for
deliverance,
you must clearly hear from GOD that he refuses to do so.

II Some Prayers are not answered because we are not ready to
receive:God our
father in heaven, will answer our prayers in HIS perfect plan, but we
need to trust
and praise him for the delays

If you have been praying for an oppurtunity asking GOD, To Open a
special door
dont be disocuraged, If your prayers are not answered right away. you
may not be
ready to receive the answer. In the mean time, do as you paul did -
Praise GOD for
what ever problem you are facing. Do your best and serve HIM where you
are

The Bible Says that John The Baptist "....was in the deserts till the
day of HIS
showing unto Israel". Mathew 5 : 23 ,24 If you are humble your self and
serve God
faith fully in the desert places in due time GOD Will show you to the
multitudes.
There is nothing wrong with ambition but you need to learn patience.

Jesus Said

"If ye Shall ask any thing in my name I will do it" John 14:14

"Ask, and ye shall receive that your joy may be full" John 16 : 24

Let us check what we are upto. If we are upto his mark . Sure we will
get perfect
answer from GOD whether it is YES or NO

With Regards In the Name Of Jesus

Hello brothers and sisters, how are you? I am fine praise to the
Almighty God.  Here is an article which I found it very interesting.

  From: Nisha Philip Mishra




                    I Like to Meet God On My Knees - I

Are your prayers hitting the Mark? Have you been getting results? If
your Prayers
are not answered there is a reason . Many People in Christian group
have a shallow
understanding of prayer. They think that praying like a taking chance
On "that
great slot macheine on the Sky". When they put in a prayer they want to
win the
Jack Pot and if they dont win, they will become bitter and cynical.
however the God
has his own reasons for answering some and not answering some Prayers.

Some one said "I have lived to thank god that all my prayers have not
been
answered".

One Of our Brother John Mathai wrote :My prayers are not been received
by my
god occationally but he is smart enough to prove that he is more
calculative than
me..

One day a little girl prayed.

Her daddy asked whether she got an answer. Immediately she Answered.

                              YES -- God Said NO

A .Some Prayers are not Answered Because Gods will is Different :-
One lesson from Bible is from the Life of Apostle Paul. He suffered
from what he
called it as a "Throne in the FLESH". Paul prayed for the deliverence 3
times a day
but GOD refused to remove it from him. But a Beautiful Promise came out
of it.

"And he said unto me . My grace is sufficient for thee; for my strenght
is made
perfect in weakness" II Cor 12:8

"GOD KNOWS THAT PAUL WAS ACTUALLY BETTER OFF WITH THE THRONE THAN
WITH OUT"

After Paul learned from God the reason of the throne in his flesh. He
Started
Rejoicing. You should do the same If you have prayed about some thing.
If God
Said No. Then Rejoice. "Give thanks to God because your problem will
produce.
patience in your life, and patience will produce godliness (James 1:1-4)

Please check whether Jesus is talking to you are not . you must talk to
God through
Prayer. and God will talk to you through Bible. It is the Best and most
reliable
communication between you and GOD. So Every Morning Kneel down and Read
a
Portion from the Bible(LISTEN TO GOD what ever he says) and pray to
God(Tell him
what ever you felt) Let God Reveal his will every day of your Life by
doing so
