The Dhinakarans ministered as a family in the Partners Meet at G. D. SHAW HALL, the Assembly of God Church School, Kolkata on the 24th of January 2023. More than 3,000 participants from in and around Kolkata participated in the meeting. They were seen standing in big queues outside the venue so thirsty to receive the blessing of God through the prayer of Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and family. The whole auditorium was jam-packed and overflowing in the other room. Bro. Samuel Dhinakaran led the testimonies session and shared what the Almighty God has been doing in the lives of thousands of people through the Jesus Calls ministry as well as through the various facets of the Jesus Calls ministry. Stella Ramola led the gathering into the presence of God as she ministered through the praise and worship session which brought comfort to the thousands gathered. Dr. Paul Dhinakaran shared the Word of God from Jeremiah 33:3 and assured the people that they will see great and unsearchable wonders they have never imagined or expected. Sis. Evangeline Paul prayed for the people with much burden and they were filled with the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Individual prayers were offered at the end by the Dhinakarans. All the partners left the place touched by the love and joy of the Lord. Many testified of receiving healing and deliverance through the meeting. The Partners Meet though arranged at a short notice was a great success by God's amazing grace and with the sincere efforts and hard work of the local Prayer Tower staff and team.

Indeed, when God allows a shaking in our lives and upon the earth we truly know that a great outpouring from Heaven is on the way following that. He opens the windows or floodgates of heaven and pours out His blessing, which you will not be able to contain. You will be shaken by God to the point of experiencing His overflow.

Acts 4:31, says, “After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.”

In order to be filled with the Holy Spirit without measure (John 3:34), the Lord shakes you in the worldly realm, in order for Him to shake the world

for His glory through you and me. A shaking is coming soon indeed!

So, what is it that He wants you to do to have this shaking experience? The place shook as they all prayed together, according to the scripture above. Prayer is what shakes the earth for God. All of us need to pray now and pray together as never before.

Do you recall the time of this incident in the Bible?

The Sanhedrin of religious scholars and priests opposed the

3 www.jesuscalls.org - March 2023 JESUS CALLS

followers of Jesus because they preached, practised, and professed Jesus. They even threatened them with death if they continued preaching that the Lord had risen from the dead and that He is the only Saviour who can deliver any person from their sins. Amidst those threats to their lives, they gathered and prayed together. Today because of the shaking on all sides you may have to deal with numerous challenges and troubles even persecution for following Jesus. The only thing that the Lord is saying is to PRAY and PRAY together. It is when you pray, God will shake the world in your favour.

You will be empowered by God's power, through which God will enable you and me to shake the

and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the LORD Almighty.”

Yes, God is going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea, the dry land and the nations.

SHAKING OF THE NATIONS

In 2014, the Lord revealed to me His plans for the world. One day, my wife and I went to our bedside to pray as usual. That day, despite being weak and exhausted, the Lord gave me a revelation. Yes, when we are weak, God pours forth His grace on us. “The world will now be prepared for my second coming”, the Lord declared. He showed me then that the shaking will begin with China, then Russia, then the Middle East countries, then Israel with salvation coming to the Jews, then Africa, then India and then the far east reaching the Australian region. When we pray, God is prepared to shake all the nations.

SHAKING OF THE SEA

Why does the Lord’s shaking come upon the waters?

Jesus sent His disciples to Galilee after multiplying the food and feeding five thousand people. Then a storm developed. The storm shook the boat in which the disciples travelled; the winds blew from different sides against them; the waters became turbulent.

world out of their sin, evil, jealousy, wickedness and witchcraft by being His witness (Acts 1:8). You cannot operate just by human authority, favour or power. God's power needs to be poured upon you through the Holy Spirit. Greater than the one in the world is He who resides in you. Nothing in this world can ever prevail over you if you are filled to the brim with the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Even though you may have had to go through the fire, water, tyranny, and hardships, now the shaking is coming to make you more than a conqueror in all these things.

Haggai 2:6,7 says, “This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations, and what is desired by all nations will come,

Why should the disciples experience this? The verse found in Mark 6:52 says that they did not understand the mystery of the loaves that Jesus had multiplied just then to feed the five thousand men apart from women and children. Their hearts were hard to the gospel of Jesus. They were not seeking Jesus as Spiritual food for their lives to gain earthly blessing too but rather they sought after Him only for earthly food and fame. Their hearts had become hard. They just had one desire - bread! They were delighted that Jesus had performed the miracle, but all they could think about was the bread He multiplied, the food, the position, and the possessions.

However, they failed to realise that the loaves that Jesus broke to multiply were nothing but His own body which He gave to be broken for us to have the eternal bread to be able to overcome the wickedness of the earth and be able to live on earth. Jesus multiplies in us when we accept the broken loaf as the wounded body of Jesus to feed us for life. The Lord allows the shaking in our lives so that our eyes will open to the broken body of

JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org 4

Jesus for us to receive Him as our life to live on earth, not looking to earthly food, fame, favour alone for us to live on earth, which are only transient. “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God”

(Matthew 4:4).

According to John 6:19, while the boat of the disciples in which they were travelling was being shaken by the winds and the troubled waters, Jesus walked on the same waters for three and a half miles. Truly He could walk on the stormy waters of the sea because He was praying alone on the land climbing a mountain all through the night. When He approached the boat of the disciples through the saving of their co-disciple Peter, who was about to drown but was saved by the hand of the Lord Jesus. Then the eyes of the disciples were opened for them to realise that He was Jesus who had come to them walking over the shaken sea. They welcomed Him into the boat. Welcoming Jesus into their boat was to welcome Him, His will, His lifestyle, His sanctified Spirit and His mission into their lives. Immediately the storm and the shaking stopped. Peace descended. And behold the boat touched the other shore. Your boat will now reach the destined shore.

Recognise with the reverence that you have life in you being powered by the broken body of Jesus; you are carrying the mission for your life, your family, your job and so on, which is the broken body of Jesus to feed people with it through your life. As you revere what the Lord has placed in your hands as the broken body of the Lord Jesus and serve the people around you with it, there will be multiplication, miracles and the manifestation of the divine through you. You will walk over the shaken waters and reach the other shore to experience miracles of healing, deliverance and resurrection.

SHAKING OF THE HEAVENS Why would God cause the heavens to shake?

Before God's throne in heaven, satan stands accusing God's children. According to Revelation 12:9 and 10, satan is standing before God's throne accusing the brethren while simultaneously leading the world astray. The old devil satan, the serpent! He gathers witnesses against you on earth too using them to accuse you unjustly. But when we pray together God will shake the heavens and cast satan

down. His throne will crumble, and he will no longer be able to blame us. He will never be able to stand against us because of the lamb's blood and His testimony that we are His beloved child. You will declare, "I will testify about Jesus. I'll lead a life of witness for the Lord Jesus.” Satan will then fall. God of peace will crush satan under your feet. His plans will never prevail. And then, only the will of God shall be fulfilled in your life (Jeremiah 29:11).

SHAKING OF THE DRY LAND

God promises that He will shake the dry land when we pray together. Exodus 14:21–30 contains an account of how the Egyptians pursued the Israelites on the dry land. Do you recall the story? God was leading the Israelites to the Promised Land. At that moment, Egyptians wanted to get the

Israelites back to bondage. And their armies pursued them riding on their chariots. People who are evil in the world may follow you today to get you back to a life of bondage, slavery and exploitation. If they would not succeed they would even want to kill you, especially if you bear the name of Jesus. They'll make an effort to ruin you. Such were the people who followed the Israelites. Moses then extended his hands over the Red Sea and the Lord repelled the sea. It was transformed into dry land with the help of a strong east wind. With a wall of water to their right and to their left, the waters stood, as the Israelites crossed the sea on dry land. All of the Pharaoh’s horsemen, chariots and riders followed the Israelites into that dry land which was a God-made path destined only for the children of God to travel. When God's chosen people are made to walk to inherit the place

5 www.jesuscalls.org - March 2023 JESUS CALLS

prepared by God for them (Exodus 23:20) no wickedness nor the unrighteous authorities of the world would be able to overcome the children of God as long as they walk in the path destined and opened miraculously by the Lord for them. It's a unique supernatural path laid out for God's elect.

God has opened a unique path for you in the presence of your enemies (Psalms 23:5). But you may wonder why God allowed the destructive Egyptian army to follow the Israelites on the same miraculous path. But He allowed them only up to a certain distance after which God looked at the Egyptians from the pillar of fire and cloud and He jammed the wheels of their chariots so that they could not move and were caught in the middle of the sea floor. They were wrought with the spirit of confusion. They cried, “let's get away from the Israelites.” But it was too late for them.

The Lord instructed Moses to extend his hand over the sea so that the Egyptians, with their chariots and horsemen would be covered by the waters. As soon as dawn broke, the sea returned to its original position. As they ran in that direction, the Lord threw the Egyptians into the sea covering the horses and chariots. Pharaoh's entire army, which had followed the Israelites into the water, was there. They all died and not one of them survived. The Lord delivered Israel from the hands of the Egyptians that day, and Israel saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore as they crossed the sea on dry land with a wall of water on their right and their left. You'll start seeing your adversaries who try to put you in bondage destroyed totally from now on. The Egyptians that you see today, you will never see again. Your adversaries won't be around anymore. The devils battling His children will be vanquished by God. Your adversaries won't frighten you anymore. They will be moved out and God will give you victory so that you might soon enter His promised land.

SHAKING OF THE EARTH

Finally, God is going to shake the earth. When does the shaking happen on the earth? Psalm

68:7,8 says,

“When You, God, went out before Your people, when You marched through the wilderness, the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain, before God, the One of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.”

When God goes before us, the earth will shake. From today the Almighty God is going to go before us. He says in Exodus 23:20,

“See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.”

This year, 2023, the Lord told me that it is going to be a year of beautification. God is going to beautify you when you pray. Esther prayed and God beautified her. The King of Kings will make you the queen. In Jeremiah 30:18, the Lord says, “From the mud heaps where you are, I'll make you into a beautiful palace.” The earth will indeed shake. The wilderness will rejoice and blossom! Zephaniah 3:19 says, in the same place where you went through shame, I will give you praise and honour. You have gone through enough shame. You have become a mud heap and have become ruins. But God says, “I'm going to shake you. I'm going to go before you. I will fight for you. I will beautify you and you'll become a palace to carry Jesus.” Aren’t you glad, my friend? Own each and every promise of this message. Your prayers are going to shake the world. Take heart and keep praying.

PRAYER

Loving Father, Thank You for this beautiful promise that You will make Your blessings overflow into my life in abundance and will shake out the human lusts and cravings, the accusing satan and the wicked destroying Egyptian powers. Thank You for Your promise that You will shake the world on my behalf and for Your glory. Lord, use me and instill in me the Spirit of prayer to carry You wherever I go. Let people be shaken for Your kingdom to overflow and be established. In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen.

The Prayer Tower Ministry serves millions of people through the love and compassion of Jesus Christ. God hears the prayers of anointed prayer intercessors and delivers people from all their difficulties and binds the brokenhearted. Several people’s lives are renewed, enabling them to move forward and do great things for God's glory. Prayer Towers are seen by some as their mother's home. Regardless of the darkness that is confronting the people, as soon as they enter the Prayer Tower, they feel at home being warmly welcomed by the Prayer Intercessors into the glorious presence of God that strengthens them and brings the light of God into their lives. Visitors to the Chapel have also experienced the presence of God in a special way during their quiet time with the Lord. Special weekly meetings are also held for specific groups of people such as business people, families, women, young people, children and individuals in need of deliverance from evil spirits and challenging situations. Each Prayer Tower also features a Chain Prayer Room. Every day, thousands of people visit our Prayer Towers and utilise the facilities provided there to receive prayer for

miracles from the Lord Jesus.

The "Telephone Prayer Tower" ministry offers solace to millions of people who require prayer for a variety of reasons. Prayer services are provided 24x7 in eight languages-English, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Hindi, Punjabi, and Gujarati through the telephone number 044 45 999 000. There is a need to expand the prayer support crew to render hassle-free prayer support for the increasing prayer calls. We are also planning on training a large number of prayer intercessors.

The Blessings Meetings held in each Prayer Tower are indeed a blessing to many. Several hundred people attend the Blessing Meetings each week, where they encounter God's heavenly touch and are set free from bondages. We are facing some inconveniences now since due to a lack of room space in some Prayer Towers, we are unable to hold these Blessing Meetings. To accommodate the growing number of visitors in some Prayer Towers, we need to relocate these Towers to a more spacious place.

Thanks to the generous donations of our

JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org 12

partners, we are able to cover the rent for the Prayer Tower buildings, the electricity and phone connection costs, computer and building

maintenance costs, and office operational costs. Every little contribution has helped us to provide free service to people in their desperate times.

As led by the Lord, we are also planning to open a Prayer Operation Centre, Prayer Training Centre, and Media Prayer Centre on the campus of Dr. D.G.S. Dhinakaran Memorial Prayer Tower in Chennai. We will have to train Prayer Intercessors and deploy them in the nation's many operating Prayer Towers. With a total space of 61,540 square feet, these three centres will be constructed for approximately Rs. 20 crores ($2.5 million).

This year, we are also planning to establish Prayer Towers in Hyderabad, Nagercoil, and Thiruvananthapuram. This will be costing around Rs. 10 crores ($1.25 million). Please uphold these endeavours in your prayers for the Lord to provide the necessary help and make it happen. You are also most welcome to extend your financial support to any of the Prayer Tower projects and services which will definitely make a difference in many people’s lives.

Here is a testimony of a sister who has been blessed through the Prayer Tower ministry: BLESSED WITH OUR OWN HOUSE!

As the word of God goes, "Build God's house and He will build your house," we were donating regularly towards the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower Building Fund. Since then, we have witnessed the Lord’s blessing on all sides. This year we completed the construction of our house, and we moved into our own house, this month. God has also miraculously provided a car for us. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Dhinakarans and the prayer intercessors for their fervent prayers for us. - Archana kindo, Rourkela

My dear partner in the ministry,

I pray that the marvellous presence of our Lord will be with you in this month of March.

The promise for March is found in Proverbs 3:15:

"Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her" (NLT).

May our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the source of all wisdom be with your children especially during this exam season and grant them meritorious success. I am also praying for the Lord to bestow His choicest blessings upon you and your loved ones throughout this month.

OVERCOMING EXAM FEAR

"The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the Lord."

(Proverbs 21:31)

In March and in the coming months, our children will be appearing for various examinations like board exams, entrance exams etc., During this season our children should enjoy good health and

divine wisdom. Jesus Calls is always there to pray for the students. If your children struggle with exam fear and stress, kindly connect them to the Telephone Prayer Tower in the number 04445999000.

Your brother who prays for you, Dr. Paul Dhinakaran

JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org 16

Here’s how a dear Pastor has been blessed:

We have more than 18 years of experience serving the congregation in the Rameshwaram region. A devastating storm that hit our area two years ago entirely damaged our church building. At the time, nobody could assist us. As a result, we suffered greatly and were unable to worship the Lord. As a congregation, we prayed because we didn't know what to do next. In such a circumstance, the management of the Jesus Calls ministry observed the predicament of our church and wanted to extend their help. I, therefore, sent a letter to Dr. Paul Dhinakaran. The Jesus Calls ministry immediately volunteered to assist us in building the church. The Church is now rebuilt for the glory of God and we are freely worshipping the Lord, today. We appreciate Dr. Paul Dhinakaran's assistance in constructing our church and helping us serve the Lord once again. As a result, we are able to harvest many souls for the Kingdom of Christ. To God be the glory.

Thousands of students who were about to face exams attended the Students’ Prayer Meet that was held on February 11th at Shanmukhananda Hall, Comrade Harbanslal Marg, Sion (East), Mumbai.

19 www.jesuscalls.org - March 2023 JESUS CALLS

My dear friend, God will let you see His glory this month. Like Mary, you will say that the Mighty One has done great things for you (Luke 1:49).

Isaiah 43:7 says, “Everyone who is called by My name, whom I created for My glory, whom I formed and made.” In other words, it says that we have been created for God’s glory.

Colossians 1:27 says, “To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

Accordingly, this month, God will show you the mystery of His glorious riches. You are not an average person. You are a gloriously rich person in Christ Jesus. It is difficult for worldly people to understand the

mystery of His glorious riches, yet He will reveal it to you in leaps and bounds.

So, what is this mystery?

It is the Lord Jesus Christ dwelling in you. That is the mystery and that is the glorious riches that you and I own. God is willing to open your spiritual eyes so that you will understand this mystery. He wants to enlighten the eyes of your heart.

When a car manufacturer makes a car that runs on petrol, that car can only function if the tank is filled with petrol. Otherwise, if it’s filled with diesel, the car will breakdown. This happened to us once. Our driver filled our petrol car with diesel and even though he cleared the tank out of diesel and filled in petrol, the car did not function properly. It got repaired often and so finally we had to sell the car. This is how God has created our bodies also. We are meant to be filled with His Holy Spirit. If we are filled with the world, we too will be destroyed. Only if we are filled with Holy Spirit, we will be able to work for the Lord.

Ephesians 2:10 reads as follows: We read that God has created us in Christ Jesus.

JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org 20

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

Yes, God has indeed created us in Christ and this is how we are meant to be. To be in Christ! Because in Christ we are created to do good works. God has put so much thought into creating you uniquely. God has created each one of us with unique glory as we read in 1 Corinthians 15:41 which says, “The sun has one kind of splendour, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendour.”

When I got married to Dr. Paul Dhinakaran, I thought God will use me just like my father-in-law, my mother-in-law and my husband. But whenever I stood up to speak, my volume would be so low. I could not minister like them. Once, a prophetess came to our house and prophesied saying, “Evangeline, you are trying to imitate your husband and your in-laws but God has given you a unique ministry. God will work miracles even through your whisper. You will be uniquely used by God. Do not compare your ministry with others.” So, after that, I never tried to be like others. I understood that God has kept a special glory for me.

Even so, God has a special and unique glory destined for you. The Bible says that each star is different from the other in its glory. Even physically, we all have a unique voiceprint and fingerprint, dear friend. In the same way, the glory God has for you is distinguished. You will walk into that glory this month.

Even though God bestows His glory on each of His creations, the reason we were created is not to seek glory but to glorify God. Only by glorifying God, do we shine in the glory of Christ Jesus.

My daughter Sharon always prays saying, “Lord, I ask this so that Your name will be glorified through me. I don’t want any glory for myself. I only want

to glorify Your name, Lord Jesus.” It gives me such great joy when I hear her praying in this manner. Yes, dear friend, you too should pray this same prayer.

This world says, “Believe in yourself,” yet this is so far from the truth. The truth is that we should believe in the Lord and then we shall succeed. Proverbs 21:31 reiterates this when it says,

“The horse is made ready for the battle but the victory comes from the Lord.”

In other words, this verse implies that instead of relying completely on our own strength, we put our complete faith in God’s power and prepare for our endeavours. Then the victory that comes from the Lord will be ours!

Once I was watching a TV program. The interviewer in that program was interviewing a bodybuilder. He asked the bodybuilder to expose his muscles so that people could see and marvel. The bodybuilder did the same. He showed his 6 packs and arm muscles for the people to see. In the middle, the interviewer interrupted him and asked him, “What are you planning to do with these muscles?” For this, the bodybuilder remained quiet because he couldn’t answer the question. In fact, he did not know the answer. In the same way, we see people expose their beauty and talents on social media. They do it for their own praise. But God has created us to bring praise to Him.

A wonderful example from the Bible is Blessed Mary. She did not consider herself as anything big but rather said to the angel that she will be God’s servant and will accept anything the Lord does through her. That is how God expects you to be dear friend. When you thus surrender yourself to glorify the Lord by doing good works that He has destined for you, you will experience God’s glorious riches in your life as Mary did. You too will say, “The Mighty One has done great things for me.” May God be with you and bless you with His choicest.

Here are some tips from the Word of God to help you to be the BLESSED WOMAN you were created to be.

#Tip 1: MAKE GOD YOUR HIGHEST NEED

“But few things are needed - or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” (Luke 10:42)

#Tip 2: WIN BY BEING A WORSHIP WARRIOR

“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

#Tip 3: PUSH YOURSELF TO FULFILL YOUR PASSION

“Give her the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her at the gates.” (Proverbs 31:31)

#Tip 4: ADORN YOURSELF WITH A SPIRIT OF QUIETNESS

“Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair or gold jewellery or fine clothes, but from the inner disposition of your heart, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in God’s sight. For this is how the holy women of the past adorned themselves.” (1 Peter 3:3-5)

#Tip 5: ACCOMPLISH THROUGH CONDUCT WHAT YOU CANNOT ACCOMPLISH THROUGH ARGUMENTS

“Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behaviour of their wives.” (1 Peter 3:1)

SPECIAL PRAYER FOR WOMEN

Dear Lord Jesus, Thank You for Your Will and Desire to make me a woman. Thank You for the people You have placed under my care. Thank You for the love Your have surrounded me with. Lord, may You always be my desire and my highest need in life. Help me not to worry about anything instead give thanks to You in all circumstances. Help me to work with my hands with strength and dignity so that I will eat the fruit of my hands and bring praise to Your name. Lord, adorn me with the spirit of quietness so that I will be calm and gentle in the ways I deal with people. Help me to win the favour of my husband and my children through my conduct. In everything let people see Your glory revealed through me. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

MAKE THIS YOUR PRAYER EVERY DAY AND ENJOY THE RESULTS OF GOD’S FAVOUR!

PRAYER MOVES THE HAND THAT MOVES THE WORLD

Trumpet Prayer Group was started by Mrs. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran as led by the Lord especially to pray for such a time as this to sound the trumpet of prayer to pray for the protection of nations and salvation of souls (Ezekiel 22:30).

Started in March 2020, at the onset of Corona pandemic when people lost all their hopes and were in houses due to the lock down, it has crossed 1000 prayer days with prayers offered daily. With the Lord’s coming close at hand and millions of souls yet to be saved, here is an opportunity for you to be part of this great mission. When you pray for others, your spirit of sorrow leaves and a spirit of hope in God is renewed and you are strengthened.

Here is the testimony of a volunteer prayer intercessor who regularly joins the Trumpet Prayer Group.

STRENGTHENED IN THE SPIRIT

I am a Jesus Calls Prayer Ambassadors and Esther Prayer Group member of the first group. When Sister Evangeline Paul started the Trumpet Prayer Group, I was very keen to join and pray for the ministry, for the Dhinakarans and for our nation. At that time as I had lost my father, I was feeling miserable. But after I joined the Trumpet Prayer Group, I felt renewed in my spirit. I was uplifted when I heard the intercessors pray. I never missed the Trumpet Prayer Group prayers from 1 to 1:30 pm. Though I did not understand the language in which the intercessors prayed on some days, I felt connected by the Holy Spirit to the group of intercessors. The Trumpet Prayer Group has really encouraged me and has given me the confidence to pray boldly now. I sense a greater anointing on my life. I see the Lord working in my life and in my family. Simultaneously, I was able to join another group of Jesus Calls Prayer Ambassadors and pray there too. I thank God for the vision given to Sis. Evangeline Paul to start this group during the unprecedented times of the pandemic. I feel these prayers kept us all in good spirits and made us courageous to face those times with fortitude and pray with burden for others. I also pray in the group sometimes and I feel very happy to pray for others. Glory be to God.

- Prathiba, Chennai

You too will experience the power of God when you pray for others. So join the Trumpet Prayer Group and become the Lord's warrior.

Yes, whatever you do, commit it to the Lord, and He will bless your plans. So many times, we are so busy with our lives. We want to do this and that, but we forget to give them to the Lord. But from this point, may you decide to commit everything to the Lord’s hands. This has also happened to me when I was doing my MBA course. After almost seven years, I had to study Math and Statistics. I was so scared. I said, “Lord, I don’t know what I’m going to do.” But every time before I used to study, I would tell the Lord, “Lord, give me the wisdom that is needed to study this subject and let me do it to glorify Your name.” The Lord Himself would teach me each and every concept of the subject. I finally succeeded by God’s grace.

In the same way, before you start doing anything whether it be studying or cooking or driving your car, just tell the Lord, “Lord, I need Your Presence with me.” Then the Lord will be present in each and everything you do and will bless every bit of it.

The Bible says in Psalm 20:7, “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”

Are you trusting in the Lord or your own efforts, dear friend? If you trust God that He will bless your steps as you surrender them to Him, the Lord will certainly be with you and will guide you and teach you everything and make you succeed. You will indeed shine bright in your studies like the sun!

I read an article comparing the size of the sun to the other stars in the Galaxy. That article said that the sun is a much smaller star, but it radiates light that is brighter than the stars. In the same way, you might be saying, “I feel so small. I don’t

JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org 24

even have a place in this world. Nobody cares about me or even notices me. I feel invisible in life.” You might be feeling that nobody respects you in your family or in your workplace, or even among your friends. You might be heartbroken saying, “I’ve been so righteous and faithful. I have been so truthful in everything, but the Lord is not rewarding me.”

It is to you that the Lord says that you will shine as bright as the sun. Though you might feel small compared to your competitors, God says that your light will shine bright, and your success will be great.

The Bible says in Psalm 112:6, “For the righteous will never be moved. He will be remembered forever.”

Even though you might be feeling small today, the Lord says that you will be remembered forever. The Lord is going to shower His blessing upon you. He will reward you for submitting your plans to the Lord and being righteous. You will be remembered for your success. People who never noticed you would see you succeed and will see the Lord Jesus being exalted through your life. You will shine like the sun through your success. Only remember to submit your works and plans to the Lord. Then, success will be yours.

What are some of the important aspects that you can commit to the Lord?

1.Plans, both short-term and long-term

2.Hopes and dreams

3.Prayers

4.Attitudes

5.Habits

6.Work

7.Friendships

8.Marriage

9.Opportunities

10.Finances

What can you do today to commit your ways to the Lord?

Here are a few ways you can yield your ways to the Lord:

1. Spend quiet time with God every day

Make an effort to read a Psalm, a chapter of Proverbs that applies to the day, and any other Bible chapter every day. This will help you to listen to the Lord and upgrade yourself to God’s ways every day. Use a diary. It’s helpful to write our promises and plans to the Lord. Putting our feelings on paper helps them become more concrete. Writing down those ideas and offering thanks for new mercy (Lamentations 3:22,23) will help you refocus on the Lord and your aims.

2. Talk to Him as a friend throughout the day. Whatever you do, have a small conversation with the Lord in your heart. Tell Him your difficulties as you go through them, and you will experience instant deliverance.

3. Recognize that submitting to the Lord’s will is a continuous process.

So do not give up! Sometimes you might feel like you are not hearing God’s voice but do not give up. The Lord is surely close to you, sees your tears and hears your prayers. Prayer: Lord, I pray for Your wisdom to come upon me and teach me everything. Remove every fear from my life. I give every exam paper into Your hands. Please help me to learn whatever is essential for the exam. Let Your prophetic wisdom help me to prepare for all the questions in the question paper so that I can score full marks. May Your grace be with me. In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen.

The Lord wants every one of us to enjoy this kind of life. However, these days, we clearly see many families passing through various sufferings. There is absolutely no peace in several families. The trend of husband and wife living separately is on the rise. Also, rifts, bitterness and disunity are rampant in families. However, what is the wish of our Lord, concerning us? He wants His children to be filled with joy always. “He wants them to come before His presence with singing.” We read about this in Psalm 100. Today, I would like to share with you the ways to seek the Lord and how we can receive gladness and the song of joy in our lives, through that.

The Lord makes us glad through His works

“For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands” (Psalm 92:4).

It is impossible for us to receive this joyful life of love in our family in any way, other than the Lord. We may do many things to make us happy in the fleshly sense. However, such fleshly efforts would prove to be futile in the end. In that case, shall we see how the Lord would make us glad through His works?

“Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David” (Isaiah 55:3).

In this passage, the Lord tells each one of us, “My children! Incline your ear and hear. Come running to Me. Then your soul shall live.” Every one of us should certainly know that the Lord is the only way for our family life to prosper in this

world and for us to be filled with gladness. “Except through the Lord, there is no salvation.” That’s why we see David referring to Him as the Saviour in several places in the Bible. My dear children of God, this Saviour was born as a Man on this earth, solely for our sake. We clearly read in the Bible that He is the Son of the God of gods and that He was with God from the beginning (John 1:2). However, though the man was created in the image of the God of gods, he sinned by disobeying the word of God. Both Adam and Eve, the early man and woman, were created in a beautiful way. We read about this in the Book of Genesis. However, since they disobeyed in the matters of God, they were caught up in the darkness of the devil and committed sin. What a pity! This is how sin entered this world. It was the purpose of the devil to make us enter into this darkness of sin. The Bible also clearly says that the devil has sinned from the beginning (I John 3:8). Man was caught up in this snare of the devil, fell into lust and committed a sin against God. As a result of this, both Adam and Eve had to leave a wonderful and divine surrounding, lost their blessings and entered into a dark surrounding. What a pitiable and horrible state! Just imagine! Yes, even today, the Lord gives us, His creations, only good things (Psalm 85:12). However, we, who live in this wicked world, become slaves of this world, the flesh and the devil and thereby discard all the good things given by the Lord. As a result, we are unable to enjoy the glory of the Lord that gives us joy and gladness. This is how we are easily overcome by sinful life that keeps us trapped in darkness.

Today, the main reason for the bitter situations in many families is the yielding of man to his own lusts and desires. When the Lord Jesus went to

28 JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org

the place called Samaria, His disciples had gone to the town to buy food. On the other hand, the Lord Jesus was waiting eagerly to help the people who came to Him with thirst and various needs. It was at that time, a woman, who was under the bondage of sin and who found pleasure in indulging in filthy things came there to draw waters. However, knowing her heart, the Lord Jesus spoke to her with a burden in order that her pitiable state of darkness would change. We read about this incident in John chapter 4. She was shrouded by the darkness of ‘ignorance’. But the Lord Jesus spoke to her with a burden that somehow her life should be filled with divine joy and that she should come out of sin and become His ‘holy people’. Aren’t the words that proceed from the Lord Jesus’ mouth, full of life? As He kept talking to her, her heart began to change and she spoke to Him with reverential fear that He was Christ, the Messiah. Hence, she got transformed from the darkness in her life and received the light given by Him. Also, totally forgetting the purpose for which she had come there, she kept down her pot and ran into the town to tell the people about the Messiah that she had seen. She thus spoke to them with a desire and intention that they should also enjoy the gladness that she had got from Him. Many, who heard her, believed in Jesus and found blessing sin their lives. The Lord removed all their old sinful ways and made everything new for them. Such people are filled with the joy given by the Lord and their sorrows and tears are removed. All worldly desires in them are gone and they are filled with the joy of the Lord. The Samaritan woman received this experience and the Lord also made it possible for most of the people of her town to enjoy this kind of life.

My dear brothers and sisters, particularly my dear women, do you have this kind of divine transformation in your life? Have the lusts of the world and flesh departed from your life? Think about it!

In the Book of Acts, chapter 9, we read about a man called Saul, who rose against God and whose darkness was removed by the touch of God and who miraculously received a life of light! After this, God’s grace overflowed into his life. He became a servant of God to bring His gladness into the lives of people who languished in troubles, tears and

pain, till his last breath. Yes, our Lord is great! It is His desire that every one of His children should be transformed thus. It is not at all His will that anyone should go after this world, live in sin and suffer (Matthew 18:14).

“He desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth”

(I Timothy 2:4).

According to this Scripture, the Lord Jesus offered Himself on the cross to redeem us. This is how Saul, who was living in darkness, became Paul, a son of light and His servant.

Dearly beloved, do we enjoy this gladness and joy of salvation as well as the blessing of God in our lives? Or are we still in darkness? Think awhile! Open your heart right now! Confess all those things of the world that are seen in your heart, before the presence of the Lord. Stop pursuing them and leave them!

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (I John 1:9).

If you receive this glorious life, you can also enjoy a life of divine joy and gladness and be filled with His divine love. The Lord has given me this kind of life because of which I am living as His daughter, who praises Him with joyous singing to date. May the Lord fill each one of you, who read this, with His joy of gladness and blossom your life!

Seek the Lord and then your hearts shall rejoice!

“Let the hearts of those rejoice, who seek the Lord! Seek the Lord and His strength; seek His face evermore!”

(I Chronicles 16:10,11).

“The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God”

(Psalm 14:2).

Yes, dear ones, the Lord knows those who seek Him. David was an ordinary young man. It doesn’t seem that anyone else in his family was godly.

www.jesuscalls.org - March 2023 JESUS CALLS 29

But the Bible says that he was the one, who remembered His creator in his youth (Ecclesiastes 12:1). His life was pleasing to God. My dear ones, the Lord searches our hearts. He knows everything about your desires and thirst. Also, yet another factor in David’s life was pleasing to Him. As seen in Psalm 63:1, David was diligent in seeking the Lord, early in the morning. In verse 6 of the same Psalm, we see that He meditated on Him even at night. Though he was an ordinary shepherd, this was the desire of his heart. The Lord saw this thirst, burden and yearning in David’s heart. Hence He was always with him, in his life. Such people do have problems in this world. They are also surrounded by various afflictions. In the same way, David too faced several afflictions. Till his last breath, he encountered all kinds of problems, loneliness and terrible things. Yet, how was his hope in the midst of all these?

“My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him. He only is my Rock and my salvation; He is my defense. I shall not be moved” (Psalm 62:5-7).

Yes, dear ones, let us examine our lives! Am I seeking the Lord diligently like David did? Am I desirous of Him? Or am I content with myself by merely singing, “Jesus alone is sufficient for me?”Or do I enjoy this in my daily life and talk about it? – Please examine your life! Specially, my dear young children! Are you joined with the Lord, in your days of youth? If you seek Him diligently and walk in fear of Him, you can also receive the blessed life that David had. Didn’t David, who was an ordinary shepherd boy, become a reputed King of fame and name? The reason was his divine relationship with the Lord. The more he sought the Lord, the more he was filled with His presence. He had his full hope only on the Lord saying, “The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1) and held on to Him.

My precious young children, whom does your heart seek? Worldly friends or the false elevations of this world? Likewise, my dear young couples, who have entered into your family life, is your focus only on the worldly blessings? If you rely on your fleshly efforts, it would eventually land you in big problems. You will lose happiness in life. On the other hand, like David, if you hold on to

the Lord, seek Him always and are filled with His sweet presence, the blessing that the Lord gives you would be great! Your heart will be filled with the joy given by Him!

In the initial days of our married life, my husband’s salary was meagre. Yet, in the midst of that, we held on to the Lord strongly. At that young age, my husband was careful to give tithe to the Lord out of that low salary. Thus he committed himself to God and spent his leisure time after office hours, for Him. Hence the Lord was pleased with him. In order to make him happy, God granted him promotions in his job even at a young age and blessed him. Also, the Lord chose not only him but also our whole family and made us glorify His name, in the spiritual life also. My dear young people and married couples! If you want your life to prosper, you should not desire for the world and spend your time on worldly things.

“The young lions lack and suffer hunger but those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing”(Psalm 34:10).

Accordingly, if you seek the Lord sincerely and diligently, you will also receive the blessings and privileges that David had. The Lord will make you sing with gladness. In our life too, when we sought the Lord with our whole heart and mind even when the devil tormented us with darkness such as sickness, affliction and crisis, the Lord changed them all miraculously and filled our life with joy. His guidance is amazing even today. You should also seek the Lord, who loves us and has been leading us thus, in reverence and commit yourself to Him. Seek Him as a family in the morning and evening. Seek Him with gratitude by praising Him always and for everything (Psalm 34:1). Then the joy and gladness given by Him would be abundant in your life.

“And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you” (John 16:23).

In the Bible, we read about a man called Cornelius. He was not a Jew but a heathen. Yet, how was his life?

He was a “devout man and one who feared God with all his household, who gave alms

30 JESUS CALLS March 2023 - www.jesuscalls.org

generously to the people, and prayed to God always” (Acts 10:2).

Yes, accordingly he was a man who sought the Lord in reverence. Also, he was seeking Him with his family and friends.

Dear ones, take a pause and think about how you are seeking the Lord! Do you have a prayer life, a close relationship with God and a burden for your friends and relatives to have a deep, divine experience? Do you wonder what you should do to receive these? If you want your life to be always filled with divine joy, you should also desire after things of the Lord like Cornelius.

“For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants and My blessing on your offspring” (Isaiah 44:3).

Here we read clearly how we would receive the joy given by the Lord and His blessings when we seek the Lord with thirst. What was the blessing that the Lord gave Cornelius when he sought the Lord with such kind of thirst and longing? When Peter, the man of God, visited his house, he shared God’s words according to His will. As he kept speaking, the Lord showered His Holy Spirit upon Cornelius and on all those who were with him. Who is this Holy Spirit?

“Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty”

(II Corinthians 3:17).

From the experience of the disciples, we read what happens when we are filled with this Holy Spirit.

“And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance” (Acts 2:4).

My dear ones, the glory of the divine joy experienced by us when we keep filling with the Holy Spirit is inexpressible. We read in the Bible that the Lord Jesus, who is the model for us, has also received this joy.

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, Who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil for God was with Him” (Acts 10:38). He gave this divine experience to His disciples

as well. Dearly beloved, as we read in Joel 2:28, He is pouring down His Spirit upon all the flesh in these last days. The joy that He gives us then is inexpressible and full of glory (I Peter 1:8). In the same way, when we love the Lord and have faith in Him, we receive His blessings just as how Cornelius was blessed.

When my dear husband Bro. D. G.S. Dhinakaran looked up to the Lord to receive this profound experience, the Lord spoke to him through the Scriptures. He prayed with burden for this and after 7 years the Lord gave him a vision for three hours and blessed him by showing him through the Holy Spirit the things that He would do through him in the future. This is how the Jesus Calls ministry was born. Today, by the grace of God, the Lord has filled everyone in our family with the power of the Holy Spirit and His joy and is fulfilling His will.

Dear ones, do you have this divine joy in your life? Have you committed yourselves as a family to receive this?

“If you then being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him” (Luke 11:13).

According to this verse, without any further delay, as a family, as an individual and as a youth, plead to the Lord to receive Him, as Cornelius did. The Lord will grant your request according to His word. This joy from the Holy Spirit is a joy that the world cannot give.

My dear ones, are you spending your life in tears and sorrow without experiencing this joyful life? Read these Scriptures and claim right now seeking the Lord reverentially like Jacob, saying, “I will not let You go unless You bless me.” Those who seek the Lord shall never lack any good thing. May the Lord do great things in your life to make your heart rejoice and bless you!

In 1986, I lost my only daughter Evangeline, aged 17 years, in a gruesome car accident. My family and I plunged into deep sorrow! Unbearable grief! As my life was thus passing in agony, one day, on March 1st, I had to go out. On the way, I asked my car driver to stop the car and buy me something. When he had gone, I sat in the car, gazing out. I saw two women chatting animatedly and laughing at something. At that moment, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Daughter! Look at these women, who are talking so happily, without any desire for godly things. What are you going to do for such women who are ungodly?” This created in me a great burden. I cried to Him within my heart and asked, “Lord, what do You want me to do?” I shared this burden with a few other prayerful women; also during my meetings, I called out for those women, who would intercede like Esther. Only a few women joined me.

Without any clue as to how to intercede and for what we should plead, we, as 12 women, knelt down in the presence of God. The Holy Spirit filled us with the Spirit of intercession. He Himself put in our mouths the prayer points for the welfare of women, one by one. We rejoiced in the presence of the God of gods. This is how the Esther Prayer Group ministry was born. This ministry, which had a humble beginning, has today spread all over the world and is changing the bleak lives of countless women and making them to arise as burning lamps. Also, the Lord answers each and every prayer request offered in this Esther Prayer Group and performs supernatural signs and wonders. We are publishing below one particular testimony:

Tears of Mourning Turned into joy!

A 19 year old girl, the daughter of Sister Daisy of our group, had not attained puberty. The doctor, who tested her had said, “She has no uterus from birth. So, she would never attain puberty. This is a permanent defect in her inner organs just as how some people are physically handicapped.” Also, the doctor advised against getting her married. This happened on 22.11.2022. The whole family was shattered on hearing this. At this juncture, every month, as a group, we prayed with burden for this girl, along with her mother. Also, we wrote a letter to dear mother seeking prayers for her. We held on to the promise given by the Lord and prayed continually for her, with burden. Hearing the fervent prayers, the Lord did an awesome miracle and made her attain puberty on 22.12.2022. All glory, honour and praise be to the Lord, who has changed our mourning into joy!

– Sis. Baby Babu, Vellore.

What an amazing miracle the Lord has done for this girl, heeding the tear-filled prayers of the Esther Prayer Group warriors, offered in faith! Doesn’t this prove that our Lord is indeed alive?

My dear Esther Prayer Warrior, your prayers are never in vain. From this testimony, we clearly understand that this is a faithful and mighty ministry given by the Lord. Hence, you may earnestly and reverentially bear one another’s burden continually and thus fulfill the law of Christ- (Mother, Stella Dhinakaran)

On 14.01.2023, a special meeting for the members of the Youth Esther Prayer Groups, was held in Dr. D. G.S. Dhinakaran Memorial Prayer Tower. Many young girls shared their testimonies during this meeting out of which we are giving below a few, for God’s glory:

Holy Spirit’s Anointing and Leading!

My elder sister was conducting the Youth Esther Prayer Group. When she got married, the Lord helped me to take charge of this group. The Lord has filled every one of us in this group with the anointing of the Holy Spirit and has also given us the gift of interpretation. He has graciously enabled me to conduct this Youth Esther Prayer Group, from this month. May His name be glorified!

– Siporal Darshini, Chennai God, who Saved Me from a Crisis!

On October 1, 2021, I fell ill and had high fever. My mother took me to the hospital and the doctor said that my condition was serious and that I should be immediately taken to a bigger hospital. Also, I was advised for a scan and after seeing the report, they said that I should undergo a surgery and that my life was in danger. I was immediately admitted to the hospital. All the girls in the Youth Esther Prayer Group prayed for me. Hearing their prayers, the Lord helped me to undergo a successful surgery. From then on, I held on to the Lord

– Sandhya, Chennai Blessed with a Government Job

I was unemployed for the past two years. At this juncture, when I attended the Youth meeting held in the Prayer Tower, a sister, who was conducting that meeting, asked me if I would be able to form a Youth Esther Prayer Group. I consented. Accordingly, we, as 10 girls, started praying in the Youth Esther Prayer Group, every month. A few girls in our group did not have a proper job. We continued praying for this specifically. The Lord gave us the promise, “The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the Lord.” My expectation was only for a private job. But, since we prayed together in the Youth Esther Prayer Group, the Lord has blessed me with a good job in the Tamil Nadu Police Department! Also, He has blessed the other girls in my group with good jobs. I offer millions of praises to the Lord, who has performed these miracles!
