In commemoration of the 25 Years of the inception of Bethesda Prayer Centre in Coimbatore, a special meet was conducted to pray for people from May 14th to 16th, 2017 at Bethesda. Our heart was greatly moved to see nearly 10,000 people who came from all over India from 27 States with great thirst and desire to receive God’s blessing in their lives. Dr. Paul Dhinakaran and Mrs. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran prayed for each one of them in person laying hands on them for God’s blessing to come upon their lives. They prayed for them for nearly 14 hours every day. Dr. Paul Dhinakaran was accessible to everyone who visited Bethesda and prayed for their blessings. God honored the faith of all the families who visited Bethesda these days and blessed them. Their sorrow turned into joy. Thank God for giving us the anointing to pray for each one who had come to Bethesda (2 Corinthians 4:15)

Jesus Calls International * June 2017


Dearly beloved in Christ, Loving greetings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ! Let me joyfully open the month of June with the beautiful promise by our father God. “I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron. For Jacob My servant's sake, and Israel My elect, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known Me” (Isaiah 45:2,4). In faith, I pray that God may remove all obstructions and prepare the way for blessings! “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:19,21). Our God tells us to obtain the treasures of heaven. In Malachi 3:10,11, He tells us to bring our tithes into His temple. It suggests that, when Jesus Calls International * June 2017

A FAMILY ENJOINED WITH GOD “As for Me,” says the Lord, “this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants’ descendants,” says the Lord, “from this time and forevermore” (Isaiah 59:21).

According to His will and Wisdom my wife Evangeline and I were united in Holy Matrimony on the 2nd of June 1989. Since then the Lord has been integrated with us as a threefold chord, have sanctified our family; gifted us with precious children and is using us as a blessing to many families today.

May our God, who builds families bless your family life; establish peace between you, your spouse and your children and lead you to have a closer walk with God. May the Lord during this month shower you with blessings from above and fill your life with good things. The Lord who builds families; the Lord who fills you with treasures from His glorious light, lives within you and loves to bless you. "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20). It is the desire of our God that you keep the door of your life accessible. Friend, Open your heart and allow Him to come inside and dwell in you! The Lord who is the fountain of all blessings will fill your heart with His love and fill your life with the fruit of His Spirit.

“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." says the Lord Jesus Christ. Dear beloved, in your time of needs we are here to uphold you in prayers with our Lord Jesus who performs outstanding miracles. We thus encourage you to visit our Prayer Tower so that together we will bless the Body of Christ in Australia. Restoration of Job Hello, my name is Daniel Nair. In early 2013, I had applied for a job at Qantas as an Aircraft cleaner & was rejected. I was struggling to find work and started doubting whether God was listening to my prayers or not, since I was on welfare dependency. After 4 months of struggle, one of my friends offered me a job at a meat warehouse where I started working. One day in the month of October’13, when I went to work, my manager told me that I was not needed anymore. My mom a prayer intercessor at the Australia Prayer Tower, put my request at the Prayer Tower

for favor from God for a good job and continued to pray for me along with the other prayer intercessor. I got a thought of re-applying for the job at Qantas Airlines& did so immediately. In the month of November’13, I received an email from Qantas to come for the interview & in a few months received another email stating my application was accepted and thus, I was required to do the medical assessment in February 2014. In the month of March’14, I received the final email, calling me for induction. I remember& value the prayers offered for me & my mother by the prayer intercessor who stood with me & my mother through all that difficult time. I’ve been working at Quantas for 3 years now, & it is God’s Grace which has kept me going. I give all Glory to God alone!

“…I will show them my wonders.” (Micah 7:15)

O

We praise and give thanks to Him, because that

with wonders we have been distinguished. His

mighty hand and an outstretched arm is going to perform incredible miracles and signs in your lives with His loving kindness (Deuteronomy 26:8; Psalm 136:12).When God brought the Israelites out of Egypt, He performed miracles and wonders and dwelt among them (Exodus 29:45). Likewise, you will also see and experience His wonders and marvellous deeds in the living days. The Psalmist sings, “I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live” (Psalm 146:2).

Why should we praise the Lord? “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well.” (Psalm 139:14)

16

works are marvelous. “…Your life is now hidden with Christ in God.” (Colossians 3:3) God is your treasure, and where your treasure is, there is your heart. Jesus Christ said, “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30). Our eternal life is invaluable which is laid up with Christ in heaven where God is. Hence nothing can reach it or take it away. St. Paul says, “…put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.” (Colossians 3:10) When you have acquaintance with Christ, you resemble Him in the capacity for knowledge of God. The old things fade away. “Your hope will not be cut off” (Proverbs 23:18). The Lord’s mighty hand will surely reward your hopes and expectations.

“For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ.” (Ephesians 1:4,5) God even before He created the world, He showered us with His choicest blessings of love and chose us in Christ to be faultless and holy. God blessed mankind abundantly that he decided to adopt us into His own family through Jesus Christ. It gave Him great pleasure to do so. Let’s give praise to God for creating us so wonderful. I would like to share the testimony of Sis. Kokila, Trichy who fled into the sanctuary of our Lord: “My husband Mr. Senthil was a slave to many bad habits. As a result, we led a troubled family life. At that time, I heard about the Jesus Calls TV programs telecast in Raj TV. I tuned in to watch the Jesus Calls TV programs despite my husband’s disapproval. It was too good and filled my spirit with immense peace. With much disgust once he said to me, “If Jesus Christ is the true God let Him deliver me from my bad habits.” That day, Sis Evangeline was praying for freedom from hard to break habits as that of my husband’s. My husband who was watching this program, suddenly fell to his knees and prayed along with Sis Evangeline Paul. He felt a flash of light from the TV flow towards him. Since then he was delivered from his sinful habits. After this incident, God has returned everything we had lost in two fold. We had sold one piece of land and in return God gave us two piece of lands. We had lost all our jewellery but God has given back everything. 13 years of married life which was at stake is gloriously restored. All praises to God”. If you have ever considered ending your life to put an end to the harassment of married life, then here is a promise from God, “Because I live,

you also will live” (John 14:19). God touches us so that we may be hidden in Him. Though God has created us in His image, yet the world is in Satan’s hands (1 John5:19). This sinful world contains a lot of trials. The internet contains a lot of temptations. However, God can set you and your family free from the temptations miraculously. My father did not know about Jesus Christ, for the most part of his life. My mother constantly prayed for his salvation. She even fasted and prayed saying, “Lord, save my husband, I don’t want any riches, I just want him to know You”. God rewarded my mother’s tears and answered her prayers. My father accepted the Lord as his Saviour and we were a blessed family. Our family was blessed. Likewise, when you seek God, his blessings will end your sufferings. “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost” (Luke 19:10). Whatever you have lost so far God will restore it in manifold ways.

What kind of miracles does God do? GOD’S LIGHT “Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.” (Isaiah 58:8) You may be saying “I am not well; I have lost all hope; I have prayed but there is no end to my sufferings" Be of faith. The Lord will save you from all your troubles. Jeremiah laments, “I have been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is. So I say, My splendour is gone and all that I had hoped from the Lord. I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. I well remember them, and my soul is

downcast within me.” (Lamentations 3:17-20) When Jesus went to a town called Nain, He had compassion on a widow who had just lost her son and told her not to weep. Then He went up and touched the coffin and said, “Young man, I say to you, get up.” The young man sat up and started talking to the amazement of the onlookers (Luke 7:11-17). Likewise, the Lord tells you, “Do not cry, I will be zealous for you for the sake of My holy name. I will perform a miracle in your life” (Eze. 39:25). Yes, the Lord will redeem you. He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun (Psalm 37:6). The Bible says, “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.” (Psalm 23:5) Recently at ‘Jesus Calls Prayer Festival’ conducted at Ambikapur, Chattisgarh during January 13-15, 2017, Sis Leelavathy who attended the prayer meet had cried out fervently for healing of uterine fibroids. The Lord had anointed and mercifully healed her. She returned back on the last day of the prayer fest with scanned medical proof of her healed uterus. She also testified live saying: “I had fibroid in my uterus and suffered much due to severe stomach pain. I attended this meeting with hope in Christ and as I was praying along with Sis. Evangeline Paul, God filled me with His anointing immeasurably. At that time, I felt like fibroid swelling up like a balloon and bursting. I feared that I was dying but the fibroid burst and I bled from the nose. My stomach pain disappeared! The next day I went to the doctor to confirm this miracle and to my surprise all the scan reports

18

revealed that there is no sign of fibroid. All glory to God. God will do similar miracles for you too. GOD’S WORD “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.” (Psalm 119:105) The word of God is very important (John 1:14). When you read the Bible every day it will help you to walk in the light. God’s word contains life and His Spirit (John 6:63). As God’s word enters us we are filled with His glory and no evil can touch us. God will be like a wall of fire around us and His glory will be in our midst” (Zechariah 2:5). On 23rd February, 2017, I received an email from Dr. Joanne Shalini, Malaysia sharing her testimony on how God’s word wrought miracles in her life. This is what she says: My father had neurological problem in his leg which caused pain when he walked. The doctors found that the nerve in his leg was swollen and said that if left untreated he may end up with inability to walk. At this juncture, in December 2016, I sent an e-mail to Sis. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran on behalf of my father. And she did send me an encouraging reply from the word of God quoting scriptures. Within days of receiving her reply, the pain in my father's leg began to slowly subside. Now he is healed completely! My father is happy and I am happy for him! Dearly beloved, be prepared to expect similar miracles. Submit yourself to Him by inviting Him into your heart. Take up a promise to read the Bible everyday which contains the bread of life. When you start doing this, God will hide you in Him. No evil shall touch you. He will transform you. The joy of salvation will fill you. The Scripture says that Satan is like a roaring lion searching for prey. Though he comes like a roaring lion, God will hide you in His bosom like a mother. What a great comfort! The Miracle worker is with you. Hallelujah!

Dear God, I come to Your Feet to receive the blessings, the good gifts that you have destined for me. I look up towards the hills from where my help comes. I believe that my help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. Look upon me graciously. Forgive and forget those shortcomings that I may have. Grant unto me that I will be able to peacefully receive all the blessings, the good gifts and to experience the end results that I look forward to which you have pre-destined for my life. Lord Jesus, I thank you for having shed your blood for me to receive your pre appointed goodness in my life. Grant unto me Lord that I will be able to receive all that you have planned for me without worrying but with prayer and thanksgiving God the Holy Spirit, as I do not know to rightly pray to receive all that you have set apart for me, you intercede for me with countless groaning and sighs; you give me new tongues, you take my prayers straight into God’s presence, You knit the Blood of Jesus with God’s plan and God’s decisions. You shower on my life through fiery angels the blessings decided by God for me as in answer to my prayers. You make satan to fall as a lightning who brings obstacles to your blessing. I thank you. Lord, grant answers to my prayers and reveal to me the great and mighty things that I do not know. Graciously grant me Lord that every plan and purpose of yours for my life will come to pass at its appointed time. When fear, anxiety, sorrow arises in me and chokes me and prevents the fulfillment of your divine plan, O Holy Spirit, arise in me in your glory. Enable me to pray in tongues in the Holy Spirit. Open my eyes to diligently read, meditate and receive your counsel from the Bible and to see the wonders in your Holy Scriptures. Show me what I should do in my life, in my family, in my ministry and in the society. My God, even as you humbled yourself unto death at the cross to fulfil the Father’s will and plan, and whereby you were given heavenly honour, I too humble and empty myself in your presence. Let your plans and purposes be fulfilled in glory in me. Anoint me with fresh oil and raise up my horn like that of an unicorn. Jesus, I pray, not being anxious about anything and with thanksgiving. Increase your grace and blessings in my life. Honour me by granting me the goodness and blessings you have stored for me. You are answering me to this prayer that I pray according to your will. You are enabling me to receive all that you have stored for me. I thank you for this. Amen. (This prayer is based on the following Scriptures: James 1:17; Philippians 4:6,7; Romans 8:26,27; Revelation 8:3-5; Luke 10:18; Jeremiah 29:11; 33:3; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Jude 20; Psalm 1:2; 32:8; 92:10; 119:18,97; 121:1,2; 123:1,2; Philippians 2:6-11; I John 5:14,15)

Dearly beloved, In the June, 2014 issue of the Jesus Calls Magazine we have published the prophecy given by Dr. Paul Dhinakaran in detail, which is about Eastern Jerusalem, taken from Israel by force with a resolution and a unified consensus of the world leaders. This prophecy has started to fulfil now.

PROPHECY FULFILMENT: “Shocker: Russia recognizes ‘West Jerusalem’ as Israel’s capital ” On 6th April 2017 by the Russian Foreign Ministry on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the following statement was released: “We reaffirm our commitment to the UN-approved principles for a Palestinian-Israeli settlement, which include the status of East Jerusalem as the capital of the future Palestinian state. At the same time, we must state that in this context we view West Jerusalem as the capital of Israel,” read the statement. The UN Security Council passed a resolution to end Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories On 23.12.2016, the United Nations Security Council voted on a resolution to end Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories. Fourteen of 15 council members were in agreement - only the US abstained. The Security Council reaffirmed that Israel’s establishment of settlements in Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, had no legal validity, constituting a flagrant violation under international law and a major obstacle to the vision of two States living sideby-side in peace and security, within internationally recognized borders. Adopting resolution 2334 (2016) by 14 votes, with the United States abstaining, the Council reiterated its demand that Israel immediately and completely cease all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem. It underlined that it would not recognize any changes to the 4 June 1967 lines, including with regard to Jerusalem, other than those agreed by the two sides through negotiations. The UN Security Council is the most powerful forum of the world, with "primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security." France, China, UK, USA, Russia are the permanent members in that counsel, and many other countries are non permanent members. Hence, Russia’s statement and UN Counsel’s resolution against Israel is to be noted and this is what has been revealed by the Holy Spirit to His servant Dr. Paul Dhinakaran on April, 6th 2014.

PROPHECY FORETOLD

“My precious friend, On the April 6 th 2014, the Holy Spirit woke me up at 3:30 am in the morning, and the first thing that He said was, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem." I heard this spoken from the Scriptures(Psalm 122:6,7). But for the very first time the Holy Spirit spoke into the depths of my spirit. I could see that the Lord was in a hurry. It's now time for things to happen in Jerusalem. Initiatives to separate Eastern Jerusalem from Israel

As He was saying that to me, I could see Eastern Jerusalem - ‘The walled city of Jerusalem’.And I could see the leaders of the world bringing about a resolution and a unified consensus to make Eastern Jerusalem the capital of Palestine, naming Palestine as a country. I could see the leaders of the nations gathering. I could see the leaders of the western world gathering together, forming a consensus and declaring Eastern Jerusalem as no longer belonging to Israel. I could see the leaders of the western countries joining together in consensus in one accord taking the land of Eastern Jerusalem out of the hands of Israel. They were saying that ‘Eastern Jerusalem- The walled City’which was claimed to be a part of the land does not belong to Israel anymore. Note: To read more about the prophecy given by Dr Paul on April 6, 2014, “The initiatives to separate Eastern Jerusalem from Israel and the rise of Russia as world super power again”visit our website: www.jesuscalls.org.

As God’s children, now, let us pray for the Peace of Jerusalem

NEW ERA IN KARUNYA Prophetic Prayer Conference, Karunya

The Prophetic Prayer Conference, Karunya from February 15-18, 2017 was a glorious occasion and a memorable event in the lives of students and faculty of the Karunya schools and University. In the April Edition, we published a special report and testimonies on this event and now we have few more to enlighten you and to seek your prayers for the Karunya mission to continue to be a blessing to millions.

Gift from God My name is Rachel. I am a Karunya student from CS Department. Today, the first day of prophetic conference, I was praying that I should see Jesus face to face. It was my desire that I should get this as a gift from Jesus today being my birthday. At the beginning, I was unable to feel the presence of God but suddenly I received a new experience. Dr. Paul said, “Someone here is getting a unique experience, the fire anointing.� Immediately I saw Jesus in front of me. He was smiling at me. He had a glorious and shining face. He was just looking at me. There were angels standing with trumpets. I have no words to thank God for this gift which I had asked.

Loneliness disappeared I am Harish doing my second year in Computer Science department. For the past few months, I went through loneliness and I was crying to God to bless me with the Gift of speaking in Tongues. Yesterday during the first day of the conference, I

22

was very much asking God to fill me. But today, God heard my cries and filled me. I experienced great joy. I started to speak in unknown tongues and my body was shivering for nearly 10 minutes and the whole day I felt this heavenly experience. Now I know that I am not alone anymore. Jesus is with me. Praise the Lord.

Gospel to kingdoms Praise God, I am Shruthi from III year ECE. I saw a vision where the roof of the auditorium just above the podium had a handle, where I felt somebody from above held on to the handle and opened the roof of the auditorium like a shutter. Then I could see each layer of the sky turning invisible. One by one layer, I saw each layers that I learnt in my schooling through my naked eye. First, troposphere, strato, meso, thermo, exo and then atmosphere. All slowly turning transparent and disappeared. After all this travel I found a golden gate that was equal in length and breadth of the sky lying horizontally. All of a sudden

Jesus Calls International * June 2017


the gates opened and all that I saw was the light rushing from the gate in full measure, and dropped down in the auditorium where we were praying. Where ever it struck it started reflecting. Technical terms of light reflecting only in glass, never worked out here. The light started reflecting from every where it dropped, on every object it dropped and even on every person. It started to travel to the ends of the earth. I was able to see it travelling to each college department and hostels, after that I could not identify the places because they were the ones I haven't travelled before. So God started showing me through the map. I was amazed to see the light covering from Arctic to Antarctic. After the prayer, I found myself shivering, unable to place my legs on the floor. I have always been a person who can talk a bit boldly, but my voice trembled terribly with the presence and I could barely see things. Because already the golden gate was so bright, immediately seeing a highly powerful light which was a trillion times more than the rays of the sun, I literally felt that I am gonna be blind the next minute. It took some time for me to recover. One assurance I got was, nobody can stop my God or the word of Christ getting spread all over the world according to the promise in Matthew 24:14. “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations”.

Heavenly experience… My name is Shawn Joel Lynus. I am studying in III std. I was seated in the front row in this Prophetic Prayer Conference. During prayer time uncle Paul said, “Whoever desires to speak in tongues pray now.” At that moment I asked Jesus to fill me with that heavenly experience. Immediately I started to speak in tongues and I am so happy now.

Sorrow turned to joy I am Rachel Joseph, student of first year MBA. For the past few months, I had been constantly under the demonic oppression and I was depressed. I never used to like anything. Whenever I sat down to pray, I used to get negative thoughts in my mind. I used to feel so discouraged. My parents are in the ministry and my father being a pastor always keeps praying for me and upholding me. I wasn’t completely sure about my future regarding my job and my career. I was working prior to joining MBA. I felt I should quit MBA and go to work. I was really confused. I had a severe migraine and because of this I had to skip my classes and go back home often. I got my CT scan done by the best doctors in my home town. But nothing worked for me. I was under so much depression when I attended the Prophetic Prayer Conference. I was sitting at the very last row. I just said, “Lord, I don’t even know why I am here but all I have to say is if You are here with me, I want to see Your hand in my life; I want be filled with the Holy Spirit.” When I felt broken, Dr. Paul Dhinakaran called out my name. I was not sure about it as Rachel is a very common name. Next day, I was praying “Lord, if only You had really called my name, I want to hear my name called once again. I want to be filled with Your Holy Spirit.” Immediately Dr. Paul called out my name and said “Rachel, you have been praying for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. God is filling you right now.” I felt the mighty power of God coming upon me and filling me completely. I was filled with joy which I have never experienced in my life. As I continued praying I could feel Jesus telling me, “Rachel, Jesus loves you and I have not forsaken you.” Truly I feel so blessed and encouraged. I am really happy to be a part of Karunya and to have this spiritual atmosphere over here. Truly you can get a degree in any of the institution but none other institutions than Karunya can give you spiritual growth and to excel. I thank God for this opportunity.

“TRULY I AM BLESSED”, “I HAVE WON”, “I HAVE NO FEAR”, “MY FUTURE IS SECURE”, THESE ARE SOME OF THE WORDS OF TESTAMENT OF YOUNG PARTNERS ACROSS THE GLOBE

Here is a Young Partner narrating her testimony... I was enrolled in the Young Partner’s Plan even as I was a small child. I grew under the protection of prayer offered by the Jesus Calls Prayer Ministry. Just two days before my 10th Grade exam I had fever and the temperature did not come down. I was taken to a nearby hospital but the treatment was not helpful and so I was moved to another hospital and there it was diagnosed as Dengue fever. I had to be admitted in the hospital but I was so particular that I should go home and prepare for my exam. As I came home, I was full of tears not knowing how I am going to write my exams. In this situation, we started calling the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower for prayers and I also prayed the prayer in the student prayer card. After writing the first exam, that night I started vomiting blood. My entire family was in panic. Yet we did not give up hope but continued crying out to God through the Prayer Tower. The prayer intercessor prayed fervently and assured me of perfect healing through God’s promises from the Bible. Yes, I was healed miraculously. I could complete all my exams,only because of prayers and got a score of 96% with a total 481/500. I made a vow that I will give 10 times the marks I score as an offering and now, I am here to testify and give that offering, thanking God for His mercy. - Miss. Refuge Lydia Christy As, your children receive their exam results, testify what God has done in his/her life. Please call our Prayer Tower or write to us to share your blessings as Refuge Lydia Christy and we will Glorify God together!

Uniqueness of Divine Calling “Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.” (John 12:24,25) Certain Greeks met Philip, the disciple of Jesus Christ and expressed their desire to meet Jesus. When Philip informed Jesus, He uttered the verse given above for a reply. Indeed, a corn of wheat abides alone until it falls into the ground and dies. But it does bring forth much fruit then after. It is the Lord’s desire that each of us should carry out His ministry. Word of God says, “Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it” (Col. 4:17). Jesus preached that, there is only one way to win the world for God; “unless I lay my life, shed my own blood and sacrifice my whole life, I can never win the world” (Mark 10:45; Jn.10:10). Once in Darjeeling a place in North India we had conducted crusades for four days. It was

26

a hilly region surrounded by places like Bhutan and Sikkim. People who lived there have never heard much about Jesus, yet multitudes had filled the place. People had brought and laid bedridden people to my left, while I was ministering in one of the evenings. It was a heart rending sight. During the prayer time the Lord said to me, “Tell the bedridden people to rise up and walk!” I obeyed the Lord and commanded them as He instructed. All of them rose up and walked instantly. We witnessed great miracles that night. On the day of our return, as I was about to enter my car, a jeep came and stopped before us. The rector of the church who was beside me went forward and enquired. What I saw and heard broke my heart. In that vehicle I saw a sixteen year old girl who was epileptic. The girl’s hand was completely burnt in the fire due to an attack while cooking. She had realized the catastrophe barely after it concluded. Someone had said to them then, “Lord Jesus has come to Darjeeling, take her there, she will be healed”. Therefore, they had transported her in a cot to reach me. On seeing her miserable condition, I wept inconsolably. I made a decision then that there should be no ending to preaching the Gospel or are there any needs to be fulfilled for preaching the Gospel. The

Jesus Calls International * June 2017


need for miracles and the need for proclaiming, Jesus Christ as the Redeemer, are never ending processes. Its perhaps due to this fact, Jesus would have said, “The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest” (Matt.9:37,38). Only when the corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, the power to proclaim the gospel to the world will be manifested. The Word of God mentions that he will gather his wheat into the garner (Matt.3:12). Surely, we the people of God are the grains of wheat (Isa.21:10).

God’s choice The Lord has chosen only the foolish, the weak, the poor, the simple and the despised for his ministry (1 Cor. 1:27-29). The external appearance may be deceptive, but our creator knows the unique quality in each of us, which can be used for His ministry. “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in my name He may give you” (John15:16). Paul was not worthy to be called an apostle. He persecuted the church (Gal. 1:13). Yet with meekness Paul said, “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief” (I Tim. 1:15). The Bible tells us the motive of God in selecting Paul for His ministry. Paul was cruel and persecuted the church as the worst offender. Yet the Lord saw the faithfulness in his life (I Tim.1:12). Paul was sinful, but on the other hand he was passionately zealous for the Lord. Lord chose Paul for His ministry without casting him away as a sinner. Lord chose the unworthy. We too might be weak, poor, and despised. But God investigates our truthfulness and zealousness for Him. Anyone can qualify to do His ministry with these qualities.

Truthfulness The Lord expects us to be truthful to the core (Psa.51:6). What is that which sets apart a truthful person? “Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him” (John 7:18). An honest person is determined to exalt the One who sent him and the Lord expects the same. Even Jesus acknowledges the Father, when He says, “the Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works” (Jn.14:10). When I was residing at Vellore, in Tamil Nadu, “Nenjamey Veenaai Sorndhu Pogaadhey” (never be exhausted in vain, dear soul), was one of the songs that I have marveled at and longed to learn. When I had met with the singer and discussed about the song, to my surprise, I learnt that it was himself who had composed such an excellent melody witnessing the awful trials that the people of God are subject to. However, subsequently it was evident that, VedhanayagamSasthiriyaar, a man of God, was the soul creator of the song. It is important to be genuine and not mislead others to gain fame.

Zealous for God We read that God is zealous with us in three things (James 4:5). First and foremost we should be filled with zeal for the Lord (II Kings 10:16). Secondly we should be zealous in doing good deeds (Gal.4:18). Thirdly we should show our zeal in following the Word of God (Psa.119:139). One must always yearn to do good works filled with passion for God. Reading and meditating on the Bible will lead to virtuous acts. Through more zealousness in the church activities one can please God.

Paul showed a strong passion towards the book of law and its commandments (Acts 22:3). God included him in His ministry and in the city of Corinth, he boldly testified about Christ (Acts 18:5). One may be physically weak but the Lord seeks after the truthfulness and zeal in us. We need to sincerely adopt them in us. Therefore, no one must be scorned at. Like Paul, they should be preached to, with zeal and be provided an opportunity to hear the Good news. The scornful may emerge as fortress for Christians and the Lord shall use them as His instrument. Humbling ourselves to follow Jesus alone is the need of the hour. “Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified” (Romans 8:30). On July 20th 1967 I was critically ill and was bed ridden. While four of my best friends prayed over me, I was lifted to heaven in my spirit and saw the Lord Jesus. As I looked around I could see Heaven created of precious stones like gold, rubies, jasper, Sardius, etc., Each street was bedecked with gold. And I walked through the golden path and saw the Lord Jesus seated on a golden throne. He looked at me and asked, “Would you surrender yourself completely to carry out my ministry?” Since I was battling for life in my sick bed I replied, “I cannot!”. Jesus was surprised and questioned: “Now many people prefer the ministry, but why are you in denial? I replied, “Many servants of God hardly have one meal a day, they wear tattered clothes and walk with bare foot and serve you amidst all difficulties. They need your blessings now! I am blessed as a banker, have three meals and am well dressed and I am content with it.” The Lord smiled at me and asked “Would you be ready to do my ministry if I fulfill your demands?” Then I placed four demands before

Him: “Wherever I go to do ministry, you should go along with me; when I preach from the pulpit you should stand beside me. When I pronounce ‘touch them’, while praying, you should touch them! When I pray saying, ‘Please perform the miracles’, you should perform it! I should have a peaceful family life and there should not be anything lacking in my house. If I get an assurance of all these, I shall come forward to do your ministry”. It so happened that Lord took a beautiful scroll and penned my demands. Then He wrote, “I Jesus Christ promise my son D.G.S. Dhinakaran that I will do the following.” He also wrote, “From this day my son has accepted my assurance and promises to carry out my ministry”. He affixed His signature and asked me to do so which I did immediately. He continued, “My son, I look after people whom I call to serve. But regrettably some step into full time ministry parting with their job, shortly after they witness few souls being saved, little anointment and few miracles happen. I need not be anxious about anyone who does so without my sanction”. I receive letters stating, “Sir, with a desire to serve the Lord I left a handsome job but now even the ministry has left me. Kindly intervene and convey His Will concerning me”. What ought to have been done prior has not been done. Their pride has stopped them from bidding me to find His Will. They perhaps thought, God speaks through all men of God, so why ask me for an intervention? But the Word of God says: “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.” (I Peter 5:6) Beloved, wait upon the Lord, get a proposal for the ministry and then serve the Lord with Godly fear. Be persistent in trust that He will fulfill His Will! Multitude of souls for Christ will be won through you with His guidance.

This testimony is about Haley, granddaughter of Mrs. Grace Chetty. Haley as a child would not sit in the classroom or even speak to anyone. The family were very concerned for her well being. The situation was going out of control until her Grandmother came to the Prayer Tower with burden for Haley. Her grandmother Mrs. Grace Chetty had enrolled her for the Young Partner’s Plan in the Jesus calls Prayer Tower. Haley was prayed for by the prayer intercessors. Amazingly God did a wonderful thing for Haley, now she attends school willingly without any hesitation. She has been able to mix well with the kids from her class. Praise the Lord!
