Miraculous Touch In February 2020, I met with an accident and the bones in my leg were fractured. I was in much pain and anguish. In that situation, one day as I was watching the family channel, in a live programme, Dr. Paul Dhinakaran was speaking and a word of prophecy came straight to me from him. He said, “Don’t worry, God heals you now.” At that time I felt God’s power coming into my leg and I was healed instantly. Now I can walk and run normally. I thank God and I also thank Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and his family for the wonderful ministry they are doing. - Mr. Sakthi Selvam, Melmaruvathur, TamilNadu

My dearly beloved, praise God for helping us to step into the third month of this year! The Lord showed me Proverbs 28:1 as the word for this month. “The wicked run away when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.” God is going to give you a spirit of boldness this month to serve Him and to receive every reward from Him. See what the Bible says about reward. It is found in Hebrews 11:6: “God rewards those who seek Him.”

This month God is giving you a spirit of boldness to be as bold as a lion. When you have the spirit of boldness, you will advance as a lion and nothing can stop you. A lion tears down every opposition and gets its reward. The opposition and wickedness of the world shall not tear you down. You shall be bold as a lion to accomplish God’s will and to also receive the reward He has for you. Enter this month with a spirit of boldness.
To Receive the Spirit of Boldness Let us see when you will get this spirit of boldness and what happens when you get it? The answers are found in Psalm 24:3-4: “Who may go up on the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy temple? Only those with clean hands and pure hearts, who have not worshiped idols, and who have not made promises deceitfully.” Yes, beloved when you have clean hands, clean heart, and clean life you can enter into the presence of God boldly. David stood before Goliath - a giant trained in warfare; but David was a little shepherd boy and knew nothing about battle. The whole nation of Israel was dependent on this little boy David. Because he had the holiness of the Almighty God in his spirit, he boldly proclaimed to Goliath: “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will hand you over to me, I will strike you down, and cut off your head.” (1 Samuel 17:45-46) David had the name of the Lord in him, a clean heart, and clean hands. With those clean hands, he sling shot a stone and Goliath fell. David saved the nation of Israel. The sling stone became the stepping stone for David to become a king. Yes, holiness is the stepping stone to all blessings! My father in his death bed said - “I can stand before God and any man in this world and say: ‘I have lived a clean life; my hands are holy and my life is holy.’” 4

This should be your testimony too! Pray with tears for God to make you holy. He will sanctify you by taking away all earthly nature, weakness in spirit, lusts, fleshly desires from you; wash you with the blood of Jesus; and transform you into a person with holy hands, heart, thoughts, actions and life. Holiness will bring you boldness like a lion to accomplish the will of God and make giants fall.
When you are Bold Be like Mary, who waited at the Lord's feet and listened to His teaching (Luke 10). This guided Mary to do everything according to the will of God. That is why there was resurrection in her family. When you fulfill the will of God with all holiness, there will be resurrection in your life, family, finances, health, and of every blessing in your life. Your every need will be met from the throne room of God.
~Transformed Image Firstly, you will have the boldness to be transformed into the image of Jesus and to proclaim Jesus. Holiness gives you the boldness to bring the Kingdom of God into the world. Apostle Paul lived a holy life and received this kind of boldness. We read about it in Acts 28:31 which says: “Preaching and proclaiming the Kingdom of God, teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, unhindered, and unrestrained.”
~Fulfillment of God’s Purpose Secondly, you will have boldness to build the Kingdom of God and fulfill the purpose for which God has called you. The Bible says about this in 1 Chronicles 28:20: David said to Solomon his son, “Be bold and of good courage, and do it. Fear not, nor be dismayed, for the Lord God, even my God, will be with you. He will not fail you, nor forsake you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.” Yes, with holiness in your life, you have boldness because the Lord is with you at all times. Thereby, you can boldly fulfill God’s purpose for your life.
~Entrance into His Presence Thirdly, you have boldness to enter into the presence of the Living God through the blood of
Jesus Christ. The Bible says so in Hebrews 10:19: “So, brothers and sisters, we are completely free since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place without fear because of the blood of Jesus Christ.” Yes, beloved the blood of Jesus Christ speaks words of mercy and grace for you (Hebrews 12:24).
Moving Forward Boldly Until now, you may have tried to do many things for the Lord, but found the doors closed and only wicked people and the devil prevailing with your finances and health, which left you unable to move forward. From this month as you lead a holy life, you will have the boldness to enter into the presence of God, where you will be able to speak to Him, know His will and receive every blessing from Him. Yes, God will open every locked door. The Holy Spirit will break every hold that the devil has on your progression. The Lord will empower you to overcome the works of the devil and also establish His Kingdom through you. You will walk in the supernatural! *Rain in Drought: You will not see the clouds or you may not even see the rain, but there will be water in the camp. This is what happened in the days of Prophet Elisha and we read about it in 2 Kings 3:17: “For thus says the Lord, you shall not see wind, neither shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water. This is an easy thing for the Lord to do; He will also give you victory.” *Plenty in Famine: There was another incident in the days of Prophet Elijah written in the Bible in 1 Kings 17:13-15: Elijah said to the woman, “Don’t worry. Go home. The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘That jar of flour will never be empty and the jug will
always have oil in it. This will continue until the day the LORD sends rain to the land.’” So the woman went home and did what Elijah told her to do. And Elijah, the woman, and her son had enough food for a long time. Whatever little you have, God will increase and multiply it from this month forward. The world may have lack, but you will lack nothing. The world shall know that God is the provider of every blessing in your life and everything you do will prosper. As you sanctify yourself and live a holy life, there will be resurrection of every blessing in your life. Yes, just like the Lord promised in the beginning of the year 2022, your lack and suffering will be only for a brief time but God’s blessings will be abundant and eternal. “After you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, Who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will Himself complete and make you what you ought to be, establish and ground you securely, and strengthen, and settle you” (1 Peter 5:10). Yes beloved, God will personally and powerfully restore everything in your life! Prayer: My loving Heavenly Father, thank You for Your word for the month. Lord, help me to live a holy life and be blessed with the spirit of boldness. As You bless me with the spirit of boldness, may people see You through me. Help me to fulfill the purpose for which You Scan QR code have called me and thereby to watch this build Your Kingdom on earth. message Give me the boldness to enter into Your Throne Room for my every need to be met. I ask of this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Dear friend, God has a beautiful promise for your family and that is found in Proverbs 28:5, “Evil doers do not understand what is right but those who seek the Lord
understand it fully.” Yes, God says that He is going to give you tremendous wisdom during this month as well as for your whole life time. “By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.” (Proverbs 24:3, 4) Yes, only a family that is built on wisdom will withstand the storms of life. If the parents commit themselves, their children and grandchildren to be led by God’s wisdom, they will find each other to be precious as riches this world cannot replace. Every couple should ask for wisdom, for only then will they be able to live in oneness for their own benefit and that of their children (Jeremiah 32:39). The wisdom that is of the Lord will reveal the secrets of God for the family and bring peace. In these present days when families are going through different kinds of turmoil, only the wisdom from God can provide solutions and salvation. That is exactly what David might have experienced, for he says in Psalm 25:14, “The secret of the Lord is for those who fear Him.” Yes, God's people understand everything and they speak prophetically. Once when I was praying with my father Bro. Dhinakaran, he prophetically spoke to me with God's Word. At that time, I was pregnant and the Lord revealed to me everything I had prayed about. The lord said, “I am going to give you a beautiful child. The child will have curly hair.” I was amazed and asked my father in astonishment, “How did you know that I prayed such a prayer?” He laughed and laughed and said, “God always gives the best. He is going to give you a

beautiful daughter.” Yes, it is Sharon and she is such a blessing in my life today. We all like a familiar verse in the Bible which says, “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard and what no human mind has conceived the things God has prepared for those who love Him these are the things God has revealed to us by His Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.” (1 Corinthians 2:9,10) In accordance with the above verse, when you ask God to fill you with His Spirit, He comes into you and He reveals every mystery in the Word of God and that concerning your life too. It will lead you in the right way, the way of truth and grace. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life and as you walk led by the Spirit of God, you will walk in the right way. We also read in John 16:13, “But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come.” Yes, the Holy Spirit knows everything that God has in store for you and will lead you into its fulfillment. You will enjoy knowing the secrets of God. Are you worried concerning your spouse/children/studies/job? Is anything disturbing the peace in your family? Are you tired because the needs in your family are not
met? Whatever be the situation, look to God from wherever you are and as you are, for God will fill you with His wisdom and as desired by you, He will fill your house with precious and pleasant riches because you revere Him. From now onwards, you will overcome every problem and will be led into God’s will—His good, pleasing and perfect will (Romans 12:2). Let this grace come upon you and may the Lord reveal His secrets to you! Loving Father, Let Your anointing come upon me and my family in a special way. Give us the grace to understand everything and fill us with the Spirit of truth. Teach us everything we need to know and help us understand all the secrets in the Bible. Reveal Your secrets to me and everyone in my family. Make us a blessing to others and give us the Spirit of wisdom and revelation and use us in Your work. Let Your prophecy be on our lips and may Your Name be glorified through us. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Dear Loving Heavenly Father, I come into Your presence with rejoicing. I praise You for creating men and women in Your image. Just like Your word says we are all one in Christ without any gender bias and You love everyone equally. Help me to be a gracious woman, reflecting Your nature in all my actions. Father, transform me to be dignified, not involved in malicious gossips but temperate, and faithful in all things. Enable me to fulfill Your purpose for my life and be a woman of prayer. May I be a woman of noble character and do good to others. Lord, empower me to fulfill my duties cheerfully and grant me wisdom to care for my household. Let strength and dignity be my clothing. May I always speak with understanding and teach others to be loving and kind. Father, let me always revere You and bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

I attended the meeting and requested prayers for my sister as she was supposed to go for the ear surgery that week. The prayer intercessor prayed with much burden for her healing.

Mother’s Health Restored My mother’s name is Vandana Sanjay Waghmare. On the night of August 5, 2021, she had severe chest pain. I immediately rushed her to the hospital. Doctors said her blood pressure was extremely elevated and suggested a cardiac stress test. The following morning, my mother's stress test was positive and ECG also showed variation. Hence, an angiogram had to be done to check for blocks.
Delivered and Saved I had a growth on my head, which started to increase over a short time that it became obvious. It made me and my family deeply concerned. I began to attend the Evening Blessing Meeting and listened to God’s Word. Miraculously, the growth stopped and started shrinking. I praise God for His healing touch upon me.

Due to a strong urge in me, I joined the team and went to Jerusalem. During the conference, Dr. Paul Dhinakaran prayed laying his hands on me, prophesied that the Lord would deliver me from the viles of the devil and bless my family. He also gave me a promise verse. I returned holding onto the promises and continued attending prayers in the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower, New Zealand.

Set Free by Truth I am a medium’s son, due to which I suffered from chronic nightmares. The situation worsened and I ended up with a knife tucked under my pillow for protection. Eventually during sleep, I began to cut myself without my knowledge. As an alternative, I began to use pointed objects instead of a knife, as I needed some sort of protection against my nightmares. It came to a point when my wife and I could not take this any longer and we started to seek help. My wife is a Christian and told me about the Jesus Calls Ministry and that that we should seek prayers from the Prayer Tower. When we went to the Malaysia Prayer Tower, a prayer intercessor led me to confess my evil practices and prayed for my total deliverance. After this, the evil spirit left and I was delivered from fear and nightmares. I praise the Lord Jesus, who completely set me free. I am growing spiritually in prayer and in understanding the Bible. All glory to God. - Mr.Steven, Malaysia

Here is how one of the callers has received a miracle On 24th December 2020, I had mild chest pain and pain in the left hand. Hence, I went to take an ECG, which showed abnormality. When I met the doctor that evening, he told me to take Troponin test immediately. I was very upset and the situation put me into great fear. I then called the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower and a sister prayed with burden for my healing. When the results came, there were no harmful proteins present in my blood. The next day I went for Echo cardiogram, stomach scan and blood tests, as prescribed by the doctor. To the surprise of the doctor, all my reports showed normal results. I thank the Jesus calls ministries for their sincere prayers and for always being there to pray for me and my family at any point of time.

My beloved partner in the ministry, I warmly greet you. God has a wonderful promise for the month of March. See what it says: “For everyone born of God is victorious and overcomes the world.” (1 John 5:4) Yes, beloved God wants you to be victorious and also overcome the world. God cannot be overpowered by sin and darkness, and when you are born of God, you become victorious and overcome the world like Him. Children of God have the authority to overcome both the evil one and evil spirits. Yes, it is true because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world. God wants you to have victory and be more than a conqueror because of His love (Romans 8:37).

It is my prayer that God will continue leading the Esther Prayer Group under my mother's guidance to raise many more Esther-like women to bring the light of Jesus in the lives of others.
More than Conquerors “For everyone born of God is victorious and overcomes the world.” (1 John 5:4) In conclusion, you as the child of God have the authority to overcome everything that is evil. Yes, the God who is with you is greater than he that is in the world. God wants you to be victorious and be more than a conqueror. Your brother who prays for you,

ello young friend, greetings to you. God wants to talk to the youth this month from Proverbs 20:22,
“Wait for the Lord, and He will rescue and save you.”
An encouraging word, is it not? You might say, ‘I have been waiting for so long but nothing seems to be changing in my life. I hope it will change at least this month.’ Yes friend, the Lord says that He will deliver you. Even if you think that something in your life is finished, unless God says ‘It’s finished’ it will surely not be finished!
done from beginning to end.” Praise God who makes everything beautiful in its time. Friend, the only thing you need to do is be still and wait for the Lord. Yes, it might be difficult and you might not know how long it is going to take; but at the right time, the Lord will do it beautifully.
Waiting Works: In the Bible, we see how Abraham waited on the Lord for the fulfillment of God’s promise and favor.
The Lord is going to bring deliverance this month. According to Ecclesiastes 3:11:
“Abraham believed the Lord and He credited it to him as righteousness.” (Genesis 15:6)
“He has made everything beautiful in its time. No one can fathom what God has
Abraham and his wife were well advanced in age and were childless. It was at that time God
20
JESUS CALLS March 2022 - www.jesuscalls.org
promised Abraham to make him the father of many nations. We read about it in Genesis 17:4: “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of many nations.” Though it took some time for God’s promise to come true, Abraham waited on the Lord, and the promise certainly came true. Similarly, when you wait on the Lord, you will experience God’s promises come true in your life. Here is a real life testimony about how God rescues people who wait on Him. There is a famous lyricist, musician and performer. His life took a spiraling turn after his wife gave birth for the second time. His baby boy did not reach the essential growth milestones such as rolling over, crawling, and walking and had to be taken around in a pram. The diagnosis of a rare condition called Rickets came as a big blow. Though it was a difficult situation, he continued to wait on the Lord. One evening as he returned home, his daughter greeted him saying that she was very happy. He ignored it thinking someone would have given her a chocolate, but she was jumping with joy saying ‘my little brother is running!’ He rushed in to check what had happened because his son could not even sit up
on his own. Confused, he took his son to the doctor who referred them to another specialist. After giving a thorough examination, the exact words of the doctor were ‘Your child is a miracle!’ The doctor further explained that in medical science there is no evidence or proof for such recovery and requested his son’s prior x-rays as an evidence. How awesome is our God! Today this miracle baby boy is a sports person bagging medals after medals. My friend in the same way, when you wait on the Lord with complete faith, you will experience great miracles in your life. Just believe the Lord, and thank Him for this promise. He is a God who is faithful to keep His word and His promises will come true in your life. At the right time, the Lord will do it beautifully.
Prayer: Loving Father, Thank You for this precious promise. Give me the strength to wait for You. I lay down all my burdens and problems at Your feet. I humbly Scan QR code ask You to take complete to watch this message control of every situation in my life. Thank You Lord for listening to my prayer. In Jesus’ precious name, I pray. Amen.

DOUBLE BLESSING My marriage profile was registered in the True Friend Matrimony in May 2019. Within 3 months’ time, we received a proposal from Mr. S. Merlin Jebakumar, who had also registered in the True Friend Matrimony the same year 2019 but in June. In January 2020, our marriage took place and by the grace of God, it was a grand success. God perfected everything within two to three months of registering in the True Friend Matrimony. According to 1 Corinthians 2:9, “…What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived - the things God has prepared for those who love Him” God has blessed me and given me more than what I expected. My husband's family treats me with much love. Not just that, God has blessed me with a beautiful baby boy as well. All glory to God. - Manimala Jebakumar, Chennai

Shyness replaced with strength I am blessed to have the Jesus Calls Alwal Prayer Tower near to our house. I used to attend the Online Kids Time every Sunday. The Prayer Tower team always encouraged me to attend the Sunday school. In 2021, due to pandemic, when lockdown was enforced, I was disappointed that I will be missing VBS but I thank God for opening the doors through online DKC "Never Alone." I was always shy and fearful; always pushing myself back and never wanted to participate in any of the programmes. But this time, DKC helped me a lot and made me to participate in all the programmes like learning action songs, worship, missionary stories, activities, craft works and memory verses. I have become strong and bold enough to speak about God. In this DKC, I learnt to pray for the world and for 'Corona free India.’ I have dedicated my life to live for God.

The Lord of lords gave the Esther Prayer Group Ministry in the year 1988. By the grace of God, even today, more than 1300 Esther Prayer Groups in India and 80 groups in 18 other countries including Israel are being conducted regularly. The reason is the undeniable fact that this is ‘a divine ministry granted by the Lord Himself.’ Those of you, who want to participate in this ministry and be blessed, can write to us even today. We are eager to send you the prayer requests and make you a blessing to others. Many are the children, young women, women and couples, who attend this prayer faithfully and loyally, even in this evil times when the terrible pandemic Corona is spreading rapidly and are blessed. This is wondrous to our eyes! Hearing the reverential prayers offered by the sisters, couples, young women and even little children through these prayer groups, the Lord is doing many signs and wonders. We have published here a few testimonies in order to praise and glorify the name of the Lord, who has been undertaking and leading this ministry since the past 34 years. Enjoy reading them and also commit your life to God to shine and prosper.
Wondrous God, who does wonders and guides I started the Esther Prayer Group in 2013, but stopped conducting it because of laziness. However, in a special meeting held on March 8th, 2015, Sis. Stella Dhinakaran spoke clearly through few Scripture verses that the groups that discontinued their prayer should resume the prayer. Following this, Sister Vidi Kingsley met me personally and encouraged me to restart the meeting. Accordingly, by the grace of God, we gathered as a group on the same month and prayed. I have studied only up to 2nd standard, yet, with the wisdom given by God, now I am conducting 23 groups. Even in the times when the Corona spread was at its peak, I met the leaders of the prayer groups that had been stopped and encouraged them to continue conducting the groups. Once, when I met a family and was regularly praying for them, I heard the shocking news that the daughter-in-law of that family was affected with mouth cancer. Every month, we kept informing this to dear mother Stella Dhinakaran and she too prayed zealously for her. As a result, that daughter is healed perfectly and has become normal. Millions of thanks to God, who has done this miracle, hearing our prayers. - Rebeccal Rajam, Chennai. 30

Promotion in Job! Marriage Settled!
Supernatural Miracles
The Lord helped me to start the Youth Esther Prayer Group Ministry. usually, my five friends and I would join together and pray. Later, I could not continue because of many obstacles, dejection, lack of peace in the family, and my job. At this juncture, I took part in the Esther Prayer Group Leaders’ meeting held in Vanagaram. The testimonies and the messages given by dear mother Stella Dhinakaran were of much use to me and strengthened and encouraged me to continue conducting the prayer group. When I was wondering how to conduct the prayer during the corona time, the Lord helped me to form a whatsapp group, share the prayer requests and pray as a group without any hurdle. When Job of the Bible prayed for his friends, God changed his captivity. Likewise, since we conducted this prayer faithfully, the Lord broke the various obstacles in our lives and blessed us miraculously. In the situation, when the pandemic was at its peak, many lost their jobs. However, even in the midst of this, the Lord granted me and my friends, promotion in our jobs and blessed us. Also in our Youth Esther Prayer Group, we were praying for my marriage settlement. I wrote to dear mother Stella Dhinakaran seeking prayers for this. She too prayed and sent me an encouraging reply with promise verse. Hearing the prayers, the Lord has brought a good alliance for me. I offer millions of praises to God, who has done many miracles in our lives. - Asnath Nancy, Chennai
I am conducting the Esther Prayer Group in South Africa, since 2017. There are 14 sisters in our group. Because of the prayer points sent to us, we are able to pray with compassion for others. My both sons are married and they did not have a child even after several years of married life. I was greatly burdened about it. I was praying for this in my personal prayer. Also we were praying for this as a group in the Esther Prayer Group. The Lord heard the prayers and did great miracles in the lives of both my sons. After ten years, my eldest son Rishi and his wife Annette were blessed with a boy baby Joshua and my second son Ricky and his wife Tash were blessed with a girl baby after three years of married life. It was amazing that both the daughters-in-law conceived in the same year. I offer millions of praises to the Lord for doing these miracles. - Raveena Naidu, South Africa.

My husband developed chest pain quite suddenly and we admitted him in the hospital. In that anxious moment, we sent a prayer request to Sis. Stella Dhinakaran, seeking prayers. She too prayed for my husband and sent me a reply with promise. Along with me, a few other Esther Prayer Group leaders also prayed for my husband. At this juncture, leaving my husband in the hospital, I attended the Esther Prayer Group conference held in Vanagaram. Dear mother, who heard about my husband’s state, prayed specially for his healing. After that, the doctors discharged my husband from the hospital saying that there was no need for surgery and that medications alone are enough. In due course, the Lord granted my husband a complete healing. Also, our house used to be very old with thatched roof and it used to leak heavily during rains. Due to this, sometimes we could not even conduct the prayer. I felt very bad over this. We prayed for this in the Couples’ Esther Prayer Group. Also, I wrote to dear mother seeking prayers for this. Hearing the prayers, the Lord helped us to build a new house by demolishing the old one. I thank dear mother and the members of the Esther Prayer Group for praying for us. Glory be to the Lord who did these miracles in our lives! - Shanthi Jennifer Victor Veeramani, Chennai.
Progress in Spiritual Life I am conducting the Junior Esther Prayer Group. I am 13 years old and studying in 8th standard. I am fond of taking part in spiritual activities. Because I pray along with this group, my prayer time has increased. I, who was praying for me alone thus far, have learnt to pray for others also. Particularly, there is a tremendous change in my spiritual life. Earlier, while reading the Bible, my brother would be 32

watching cartoon and immediately I would close my Bible and go to watch the cartoon. Now, Jesus has delivered me from this. Every day, I read ten chapters from the Bible, In our prayer group, after we pray for every prayer point, we would pray for the needs of the members also. While sending the report to granny Stella Dhinakaran every month, we would send our own prayer requests also. She would pray and send us the reply after prayers. By this, the Lord removed the debt problem in the family of Jerolin Julia; He made Athina’s father who had gone abroad, to return home safely; He helped Steny’s family to build a new house. He has also given our parents, who were weak, good health. The Lord has brought a great transformation in my life as I have joined the Junior Esther Prayer Group Ministry. Thanks to dear granny and other staff who pray for us and glory be to the Lord! -S. Libi Sunshiya, Trichy.
Got a Government Job I was working as a teacher in a private school for 16 years. I tried hard to get a government job but in vain. I am conducting the Esther Prayer Group since 2018. Also God is leading me to serve in the Jesus Calls ministry as an Ambassador and as an Evangelist. I was praying hard that I should continue to do the ministry in the comings days and also that I should be called to join a permanent job in the government. I wrote to Sis. Stella Dhinakaran seeking prayers for my permanent job. The Lord heard the prayers and fulfilled my desires. On 20th December 2021, He helped me to join as a PG teacher (Commerce) in a nearby government school. Also He is performing countless miracles in the lives of the sisters, who are praying in our group. I thank Sis. Stella Dhinakaran, who prayed for me. Millions of thanks to God for fulfilling my heart’s desires. - P. Thanam Arputhamani, Tenkasi.

Working as an officer in the Bank and due to long working hours, I developed severe stress and strain in my neck, which resulted in cervical spondylosis in June 2020. I was taking medicines daily but it was of no use. On 27th August, through the Jesus Calls programme in Facebook and Instagram, I came to know about the Day of Deliverance which was on 29th August on which day special prayers will be offered for women. I was very much excited and waited anxiously to participate in live prayer to get deliverance from my suffering. Unfortunately, I could not participate in the live prayer as I got held up in office till 7pm. I came home at 8.15pm, fully tired and with severe neck pain. However, I kept my faith in the Lord and prayed within. On 30th August, I opened the Jesus Calls Facebook page and watched the live video uploaded there on 29th August. So with much belief I prayed along with Dr. Paul. The next day itself, my neck and shoulder pains disappeared. I went to the office, worked until 7pm as usual. But there was no pain at all. Until now, I enjoy perfect health. All glory to God. - Divya, Visakhapatnam, AP

Women, especially in downtrodden communities, play a key role in managing their households and improving the rural economies. Yet, women from such communities have limited access to education, healthcare & livelihoods. Empowering women in these aspects enable us to create a self-sustainable society. To help women realise their fullest potential as development agents, SEESHA has been following an integrated approach to equip them through several schemes as part of its Women Empowerment Program (WEP). Some of SEESHA’s initiatives to build women’s capacities & empower them are as below: • Vocational Training - Through our training centres across India, we train women in tailoring, digital literacy, food processing, handicrafts, etc. In Karunya Nagar, a handicrafts stall was set up recently, providing a space to showcase handmade products prepared by the local rural & tribal women. This initiative has given them a chance to earn an
additional income for their families. • Community Health Facilitators - We identify, motivate & train women to become local ambassadors for health, awareness and disease prevention in their respective communities. • Livelihood Support - For widows and destitute women, we provide a minimal monthly allowance as financial assistance. • Awareness & family value workshops are conducted among adolescent girls and women in our project communities, with the objective of increasing awareness on menstrual hygiene, health and women’s rights in society.
Rising above all odds… “Ours is a large family with parents and 3 siblings. I always wanted to support my parents financially to ease the burden of poverty. So, I started looking for some vocational training to learn sewing & set up a home-based business. When I heard about the free 6-months tailoring course at SEESHA, I got enrolled immediately. During the course, I learnt various stitching techniques, dress designing and entrepreneurial skills. These skills have equipped me to run my own tailoring business and become a blessing to my family.” - Ms. S. Naina Kumari, WEP beneficiary - Ranchi. As financial year draws to a close, we would like to bring to your kind attention that donations to SEESHA’s projects are tax exempted under section 80G of the Income Tax Act.

SUPERNATURAL HEALING FROM GOD I am an Esther Prayer Group leader from Romania. For three years, I conducted EPG in Goa 13 years ago. I then moved to Indore, MP and continued EPG for 1 year. Later, I moved to Romania and have been conducting EPG since July 2019. There are 10 members in my Esther Prayer Group. I would like to share a marvellous testimony of one of the sisters in our prayer group. Her younger son Rezwan is 16 years old. He was diagnosed with blood cancer in March 2021. I informed Dr. S.J. Kingsley, the Director of Esther Prayer Group. He prayed and immediately informed dear aunty Stella Dhinakaran and Dr. Paul Dhinakaran. Dear aunty sent a promise of God and Dr. Paul prayed over the phone and told us that the Lord is going to heal Rezwan. At that time, Rezwan was in a very serious condition and he couldn't walk even 2 or 3 steps. However, our Lord Jesus heard those fervent prayers and healed him completely. Now Rezwan is healthy enough to ski. Nothing is impossible with God. I give all the glory to God and thank the Dhinakarans’ family and the Jesus Calls ministry. - Sujatha, Romania
