On Solid Ground I Stand – Dr. Paul Dhinakaran
“The Lord declares to you that the Lord himself will establish a house for you” (2 Samuel 7:11)Today, what is your need? Are you homeless, childless, or suffering from any sickness? Look at the face of the “Provider” who provides from above. He would satisfy you with the finest of wheat and with honey from the rock (Psalm 81:16). In the Bible, we read in Philippians 4:19 as, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Yes, God is the source of all good things. You will never lack if you seek His face. Here is a testimony of a dear brother who received multiple blessings from the Lord who blesses abundantly :
“I am a Jesus Calls Evangelist. My wife and I work at the North-Eastern Hill University. We are blessed with two daughters. Both of them are Jesus Calls Young Partners. Even though we had very good jobs, we could not build our own house. For more than10 years we lived in different rented houses and shifting the house regularly was painful and disturbing. As a family, we attended the Jesus Calls Shillong Prayer Festival in 2016. In that meeting, Dr. Paul Dhinakaran prayed for us personally and afterwards both of us were blessed with promotions in our jobs. In a Jesus Calls TV program I heard Dr. Paul Dhinakaran say, “Build God’s house and God will build your house.” Therefore, I contributed to the Prayer Tower Building Fund and sent an email to Dr. Paul Dhinakaran requesting prayer for a house. I received a reply from him with the following Bible verse: “The Lord declares to you that the Lord himself will establish a house for you” (2 Samuel 7:11). Soon the Lord opened a door and we could purchase a house in the heart of Shillong which cost us Rs 80 lakhs. The Lord also blessed us with two other plots of land in Shillong. Our daughters excel in studies as well as shine in sports and singing. They serve God with their anointed singing to lead the worship as worship leaders too. Praise the Lord!”
Yes, God is good to all those who seek Him. It is He who builds the house. Are you ready to give your life to Jesus to build your house on Him who is the solid rock? You will not be shaken but be secured and well established. He will surround you and your family for evermore (Psalm 125:1, 2). Word of God says, “Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; He saved him out of all his troubles” (Psalm 34:5,6). Let not your heart be troubled.
Prayer:Dear Father,
Today, I beseech You to bless me and my family. You are a good father who delights to see Your children filled with joy. Even now, remove every lack and fill me with Your goodness. Let my life be firmly grounded on You. May my family lift Your name and glorify You for all that You are going to do in our lives and testify Thy goodness forever.
In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
