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
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.
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
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, Jesus Calls | March 2023 | www.jesuscalls.org

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
Jesus Calls | March 2023 | www.jesuscalls.org 5
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.

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.

SAVED FROM AMPUTATION
I have always grown closer to God through the Jesus Calls Ministry, and from a young age, it has been a great source of comfort and support. First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to God, then to Jesus Calls Ministry, its each and every intercessor, and the prayer team. My brother Melvin, who is in the UK was not doing well after an accident he had at the airport and I got in touch with the Prayer Tower in Canada. His diabetic condition caused an infection in his leg, leaving the physicians with little choice but to amputate it. My entire family broke down in tears when we received this news, but we never gave up hope. When I called my brother on a conference call from the Prayer Tower, a prayer intercessor prayed for him and assured us of ongoing prayer support. Today, I must announce that God spared my brother's foot from being amputated. I thank and praise God for this. I am so grateful to God and the Jesus Calls Ministry. Glory to the Lord!

GOT BACK MY PROPERTY
When I visited Sri Lanka in November 2022, I could not even enter my own house since one of the workers passed on my Land and house to another family. I was depressed due to the fact that I did not have a place to stay although it was my very own house. I cried almost every day and prayed to the Lord for about 2 months. I felt discouraged and I decided to send in my prayer request to Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and the Jesus Calls Canada Prayer Tower. I spent my time reading the Bible and praying. In addition, I participated in the Blessing meetings on zoom on Saturdays and the fasting prayers on Fridays conducted by Jesus Calls Canada. I also asked for prayers for my house situation to Dr. Paul Dhinakaran during the family meeting on Facebook. I want to thank God, and Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and his family, and all the intercessors at Jesus Calls Canada for praying for my safety and for the return of my house and property. I was finally able to enter my home in January 2023. Praise be to God.
- Cala Waithalingam, Toronto, Ontario VISION RESTORED INSTANTLY
In December 2022, I was asked to take very strong antibiotics for a condition. After the 1st week of antibiotics, I began to experience blurry vision. I was having negative reaction to the medication. After my visit to the doctor, they asked me to continue with medication thinking it is nothing. The same week, I visited the doctor again as I felt my vision was getting from bad to worse and he asked me to see an eye specialist. I couldn't go to the eye specialist as it was closed for Christmas holidays. I lost my side vision (peripheral vision). Things began to worry me as I googled my symptoms. While browsing, I saw an online YouTube video where Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and his family were attending a Christmas function. They sang a song, followed by Sis. Evangeline Dhinakaran saying a short prayer. During her prayer, she prayed for the healing of the sick. I closed my eyes and prayed along with her. When I opened my eyes after the prayer my vision was restored to full view. I could see the full room where I was sitting. I instantly saw the difference. On the 27th of December, I met the eye specialist to do a thorough test. They said there was no problem with my optic nerve and vision. I thank, praise, and glorify God for the miracle.

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

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 $2.5 million. This year, we are also planning to establish Prayer Towers in Hyderabad, Nagercoil, and Thiruvananthapuram. This will be costing around $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.
SEASON OF MEDITATION
"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God"
(1 Corinthians 1:18)
As we are going to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ in April, many of us choose to meditate on the sufferings and crucifixion of Jesus in this season. Please visit the Prayer Tower situated in your area, and you can meditate in the chapel and
can attend meetings. There are many messages related to fasting and prayer, meditation on the cross are also available on the Jesus Calls social media platforms. You may access them any time and meditate on our Saviour's tribulations.
You may find the details about Jesus Calls television programmes on page 11 of this issue. Make sure to watch these programmes and receive heavenly blessings.
If the Lord guides you please uphold the media ministry with your generous offerings. That would help us to produce more content for millions to be blessed.
SPREADING THE GOSPEL BEFORE THE DAYS OF DARKNESS
"When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honoured the word of the Lord; and all who were appointed for eternal life believed"

Here is a testimony to encourage you to enrol in this plan and experience blessings:
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

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.

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 22
“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.

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.
