The Dhinakarans laid hands on all prayer requests, offering special intercession for critical health challenges, including a mother battling cancer. They declared God’s promises of healing, restoration, and prosperity over the attendees.

The event concluded with an atmosphere of renewed hope, spiritual strength, and assurance of God’s continued presence and favor. Glory be to God.

Dear friend, this is your month of victory.

The Word of God in I Corinthians 15:57 declares that God is granting victory to you through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the Lord who conquered the pangs of death and overcame sin, which brings death. He rose victorious on the third day, destroying the power of death and darkness. This mighty victory is why He is the Lord of all. He reigns over everyone and everything.

Even today, this great God is with you. He has promised, “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5). So, fix your eyes upon Jesus, and He will walk along with you to give you victory in every area of your life. Let us reflect on the specific areas where God will bring you victory.

Victory Against Your Enemies

Enemies can come in different forms. Some might be from your own household (Micah 7:6). Others might hate you simply because you bear the name of Jesus (John 15:18). Some might simply be jealous and hate you for no reason at all (Psalm 69:4). However, such enemies’ power over your life can be diffused to nothing when you allow the nature and the presence of Jesus to transform you.

I would like to point out three major ways to overcome these enemies and claim victory.

(i)

A Forgiving Heart

Proverbs 16:7 says, “When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.”

A forgiving heart is one that pleases God. Such a heart directly aligns with God’s nature because “The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving” (Daniel 9:9).

When we look at the life of our Lord Jesus Christ during His crucifixion, we see an extraordinary display of forgiveness in the face of immense suffering. His enemies, who

sought to see Him humiliated and destroyed, surrounded Him. The chief priests, driven by jealousy, falsely accused Him. The thief hanging next to Him on the cross hurled accusations. The passing crowds, many of whom did not even know who He truly was, mocked and ridiculed Him. Adding to the pain, Roman soldiers, who had brutally scourged Him and nailed Him to the cross despite His innocence, carried out their duties with indifference to His agony.

But even in the midst of all those mental, emotional, and physical torment, Jesus chose to respond not with anger or resentment but with love. He prayed, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34). Because of this endearing nature of Christ, the Roman centurion, who was His enemy, testified at last, “Truly, He was the Son of God.” What a witness, my friend. His enemy made peace with Him and honoured

Him. This same grace is available to you. You, too, can break the chains of enmity and destroy the works of those who unjustly accuse or oppose you through forgiveness.

Let me share a real life story with you. James grew up in a broken home, marked by anger and neglect. By the time he was 18, he had joined a gang and embraced a life of crime, leaving behind a trail of violence and brokenness. Among his victims was Michael, a kind-hearted shop owner who was brutally assaulted during a robbery orchestrated by James.

Michael survived the attack, but the scars ran deep-both physical and emotional. A devout Christian, Michael wrestled with the idea of forgiving James. One night, during prayer, he felt God impress upon his heart the words of Jesus: “Forgive, as I have forgiven you.”

Reluctantly at first, Michael obeyed.

When James was arrested and convicted, Michael decided to visit him in prison. With trembling hands, he sat across from James and said, “I forgive you. Not because it’s easy, but because Jesus forgave me first.” James was stunned. No one had ever shown him mercy, let alone someone he had hurt so deeply.

Michael continued to visit James, sharing the love of Christ. Over time, James began to open up, confessing his sins and expressing remorse. Through Michael’s unwavering kindness, James encountered God’s grace. He gave his life to Christ, leaving his old ways behind.

Today, James is a pastor, ministering to young people at risk of following the same destructive path he once walked. His transformation is a testimony to the power of forgiveness and God’s ability to redeem even the most broken lives.

Yes, forgiveness has the power to break down barriers, transform hearts, and overcome the works of those who oppose you. May God grant you the grace to forgive, even when it

feels impossible. Ask Him for this strength today, and trust that He will perfect it in you. Through forgiveness, you will experience the victory and peace that only the Lord can provide.

(ii) Rejoicing and praising God

It is another great way to defeat your enemies. Remember that God’s love is so powerful, and when this love is on your side, it can destroy every curse and false accusation brought by your enemies and turn them into blessings for you. God, in His love, prepares a table of blessings for you before your enemies (Psalm 23:5). He anoints you with His Holy Spirit, and your life will overflow with His blessing. Therefore, keep rejoicing in the Lord!

Jessica had always been a woman of faith, but the last year had tested her like never before. False accusations at work had tarnished her reputation, and she faced betrayal from colleagues she once trusted. The emotional toll was immense, but Jessica held tightly to her faith, often meditating on Psalm 23:5: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows."

One evening, as Jessica prayed, she felt a nudge in her spirit to stop pleading and start praising. Though it felt counterintuitive, she began rejoicing in God’s goodness, thanking Him for His love, protection, and provision. She sang worship songs, declared His promises, and chose to trust that He was working all things for her good.

Weeks later, Jessica received unexpected news: the investigation into the accusations had cleared her name. Not only was her integrity restored, but her company offered her a promotion for how she handled the ordeal with grace. The colleagues who had wronged her were astonished, some even apologizing for their actions.

Jessica knew it wasn’t just her actions but God’s love and power that had turned her situation

around. His blessings overflowed in her life, and her story became a testimony of how rejoicing in God can defeat any enemy. She often shared her experience, encouraging others to trust in God’s unfailing love and to keep rejoicing, no matter the storm.

Friend, when you rejoice in the Lord despite opposition, the Lord fights for you. He prepares your table of blessings in the presence of your enemies and fills your life with honour and His favour.

(iii) Obedience

Obedience to God’s word and to the instructions of your parents is a key to victory over your enemies. God does not save through weapons like spears or javelins. Instead, He saves when you are obedient to His word. By obeying God's word every day, even in the small things, you can overcome your enemies. All you need to do is follow what God asks of you, whether through the scriptures or through prophecy.

Daniel obeyed God and faithfully prayed to Him three times a day, even when it was forbidden by the king’s decree. This act of obedience led to his enemies throwing him into the lion’s den. But God sent an angel to shut the mouths of the lions, and Daniel was brought out unharmed. His obedience not only saved him but also led the king to elevate him to a position of even greater honour. After that, he had no enemies left. What a victory!

Just as how obedience to God and His word is important, the Bible also emphasises the importance of obeying your parents. Ephesians 6:1 says, “Children, obey your parents in the

Lord, for this is right.” This very act of obedience itself can bring down your giantlike enemies to their knees. Take, for example, David. His father sent him to deliver food to his brothers in the Israeli army camp. David obeyed without hesitation. While there, he saw Goliath, a giant mocking the army of Israel and the name of the Lord. Empowered by God, David defeated Goliath with nothing more than a slingshot and a stone. His obedience to his father’s instruction led to this incredible victory and brought him great honour in the sight of his people.

My friend, obedience to God and His word, along with honouring your parents, will remove all the enemies who are against the Lord and His will from your life.

The next area of victory you will be enjoying this month is:

Victory Over Your Tribulations

Psalm 34:19 assures us, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.”

Tribulations and afflictions often test the strength of our faith and relationship with Christ. At times, we may wonder, why am I, who strives to live righteously, facing so much suffering? Why does lack persist in my life when I am generous and faithful? These questions can weigh heavily on our hearts, making us feel distant from the love of God.

Let me turn your attention to Job, one of the most afflicted characters in the Bible. Job endured unimaginable suffering. The devil challenged God, claiming that Job’s faith would falter if his blessings and fortune were stripped away. In a series of devastating events, Job lost his wealth, his children, and his health. Despite these immense trials, Job’s response was one of unwavering trust in God, “The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord” (Job 1:21). Even when his wife urged him to abandon his faith and curse God, Job stood firm. He refused to sin against the Lord, and because of this, God

not only restored what Job had lost but blessed him with twice as much as he had before. Those who had mocked and criticized him were silenced as God honoured Job before them all.

This is what Apostle Paul also boldly declares in Romans 8:35-39, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Yet in all these things, we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” What a powerful statement, my friend!

When you place your confidence in the unshakable love of Jesus, you will rise above the trials of this world. I John 5:4 assures us, “Everyone born of God overcomes the world.” The attacks of the devil and the tribulations of life cannot remain in your heart because only the love of God will stay in your heart, and you shall have great victory.

Revelation 3:21 promises that those who live victoriously will share in Christ’s eternal glory,

“To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with My Father on His throne.” What an incredible reward! I Peter 5:10 reminds us that after we have suffered for a little while, God will restore, establish, strengthen, and settle us. His plan is always to lead us to restoration and blessing. Zechariah 9:12 declares, “Return to your fortress, you prisoners of hope; even now I announce that I will restore twice

as much to you.” No matter the depth of your pain, God’s promise of double restoration is your inheritance.

Rachel had always found comfort in Psalm 34:19, "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all." It was a verse her grandmother had quoted often, and now, in the midst of her own storm, those words became her anchor.

A sudden diagnosis of cancer turned her world upside down. She was 35, a mother of two young children, and her life felt too full of promise to be interrupted by such affliction. The treatments were gruelling, and there were nights when Rachel cried herself to sleep, questioning why this trial had come upon her. But Rachel wasn’t alone. Her church family rallied around her, bringing meals, offering prayers, and watching her children during hospital visits. Her faith grew stronger as she leaned on God daily. Each morning, she whispered, "Lord, deliver me," and each evening, she thanked Him for the strength to make it through another day.

Months later, Rachel received the news she had prayed for—her cancer was in remission. The journey had been excruciating, but it had also revealed God’s faithfulness in ways she had never experienced.

Standing in church one Sunday, she shared her testimony. “The Lord doesn’t promise us a life free of hardship,” she said, tears streaming down her face. “But He does promise to deliver us. I am living proof of that.”

Rachel’s story became a testament to others that God is present in every trial, delivering His children in His perfect time.

God will grant you victory as well. Let not your heart be troubled. Your victory is already assured in Christ!

The next area of victory that God promises for you is:

Victory Over the Demonic Spirits

John 10:10 reveals the enemy’s purpose, “The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy.” However, Jesus counters this by declaring, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

Satan uses various tactics to attack us. He tempts us to sin, weakens our resolve, and tries to make us deny the love of Jesus in our lives. Sometimes, his approach is subtle, drawing our hearts toward worldly possessions and the love of material things. His ultimate goal is to destroy our souls by separating us from Jesus. But the good news is that Jesus came to give us life in abundance. The more the devil tries to steal, kill, and destroy, the more Jesus releases His abundant life within us, empowering us to overcome. In Ephesians 6:10 & 11, Paul encourages us to “Put on the full armour of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.”

This armour is not physical but spiritual, made up of the abundant life you receive through the love of Jesus, through the salvation that the blood of Jesus Christ brings, through the word of God and through your obedience in serving the Lord. This ‘abundant life of Christ’ rises up within you as armour, guarding you against the darts and wicked schemes of the enemy. Romans 16:20 promises you that the God of peace will crush satan under your feet. God will also equip you to receive divine revelation to recognise the enemy’s schemes and respond with spiritual authority. That's why God gives you the gifts of the Holy Spirit as an armour that crushes the power of the devil over your life (I Corinthians 12.8-10).

In James 4:7, the Bible says, “Submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” When you surrender every aspect of your life to God, His ‘life’ wells up within you, destroying the strongholds of darkness.

Submission to God aligns you with His will and fills you with His strength to resist the devil’s attacks. Jesus Himself assures us of the authority we carry in His name, “In My name, you will cast out demons” (Mark 16:17). The name of Jesus is above all names. It is a weapon of victory, a source of power to drive out darkness. Keep His name on your lips, in your heart, and in your spirit. Live Jesus. Live for Jesus, and live fulfilling the will of Jesus. Then you will have the power to drive out evil spirits.

Saritha from Vettinadu had been battling the challenges of demonic oppression for 28 years, facing numerous hindrances in her daily life. Despite attending several prayer meetings, she found herself unable to remain in them due to the intensity of her struggles. Determined for a breakthrough, Saritha eagerly attended a meeting led by me. During the prayer time, she experienced a divine encounter that completely delivered her from the years-long oppression. Not only was she set free, but she was also filled with the gift of tongues, a powerful manifestation of the Holy Spirit. This infilling brought her overwhelming joy and a renewed sense of spiritual empowerment. Saritha now testifies to God’s miraculous work in her life, glorifying His power to transform even the most challenging circumstances into testimonies of victory and hope.

My friend, victory over the enemy requires consistency in walking with the Lord. Keep lifting up Jesus, even in the face of attacks. Continue to love, forgive, and pray for those who oppose you. Rejoice and praise the Lord, trusting in His promises. Obey His word, and believe in His love, even during tough times.

By focusing on Jesus and exhibiting His character, you will not be distracted by your enemies or trapped by the schemes of the devil. Instead, you will rise above every challenge, victorious in every area of your life.

The Showers of Blessing Rain from God await you, my friend! Walk boldly in His promises and live in His victory!

Healed from pancreatic cancer

Some time ago, I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The news was devastating, and I was filled with fear and uncertainty about my future. The doctors recommended a major operation, and after the surgery, I was admitted to the ICU for recovery. During this time, a biopsy was conducted to determine the severity of my condition.

As I was going through this difficult phase, my dear friend attended the Blessing Meeting conducted by Jesus Calls Ministries in London. She shared my situation with the prayer intercessors and requested prayer for a miracle—that the biopsy results would come back normal. I later learned that she held on to the promise that "With God, all things are possible" (Matthew 19:26), believing for my complete healing. By God’s amazing grace and through the fervent prayers of His people, a miracle happened! The biopsy results came back the next day, and to everyone’s astonishment, they were normal—there was no trace of cancer. What seemed impossible became possible through the power of prayer and unwavering faith. I give all glory and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ for this miraculous healing. I am also deeply grateful to the prayer intercessors and everyone who stood in prayer for me. I thank Jesus for this wonderful miracle.

Look at this Life-Changing

Testimony that took place in a Prayer Festival:

I endured a harrowing childhood in Kandhamal (Odisha) when witchcraft claimed the lives of three of my family members and left me gravely ill. Fleeing to Bhubaneswar, I encountered Christ and then established a business, while raising a family of four children. I also felt called to serve God upon reading a Jesus Calls magazine and seeking guidance from Bro. D.G. S. Dhinakaran. Following which I embraced full-time ministry despite ongoing financial struggles and the devastation of riots that left me homeless. At the Ranchi Prayer Festival, a pivotal moment occurred when Dr. Paul Dhinakaran prophesied, “I see a man here. You have lost everything. The Lord will give you a house and build you up once again”. Miraculously, I was provided with funds to rebuild so I returned to my village, purchased a house, and was also able to establish a thriving church in Bhubaneswar where my family ministers, bringing healing and blessings to countless lives. - Uttam Kumar, Bhubaneswar

For Tirunelveli

Dear friend,

I wish you and your family a blessed Easter.

I pray that this Easter rolls away every stone that hinders your family from experiencing victory in life.

A family rooted in Christ is not just a gathering of individuals but a testimony of God’s victory. The triumph of Jesus through His death and resurrection brings victory into the lives of believers, including families. A victorious family stands firm on God’s promises, walking in faith, love, and unity, overcoming trials through Christ’s finished work on the cross.

The Foundation of Victory: Jesus’ Death and Resurrection

The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ serve as the cornerstone of victory for every believer. In John 16:33, Jesus assures us, “In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” This promise extends to families, reminding them that challenges will come, but victory is already won in Christ.

The cross symbolizes redemption, healing, and restoration. Through His sacrifice, Jesus conquered sin, brokenness, and division-elements that often threaten family life. His resurrection confirms that death and despair do not have the final say. When a family embraces this truth, they can rise above conflicts, financial struggles, health crises, and any storm that threatens their unity.

Biblical Examples of Victorious Families

The Family of Noah – Noah and his family remained faithful to God despite living in a corrupt generation (Genesis 6-9). Because of their obedience, they were saved from destruction. A victorious family is one that stands firm in righteousness even when the world around them is filled with chaos.

The Household of Cornelius –Cornelius, a Roman centurion, was a devout man who feared God with his entire household (Acts 10).

Because of his faith, he and his family received the good news and were filled with the Holy Spirit. This shows that a family that seeks God together experiences His divine transformation and blessings.

The Family of the Philippian Jailer – In Acts 16, Paul and Silas, imprisoned for preaching the gospel, prayed and worshipped God. After a miraculous earthquake freed them, the jailer, fearing for his life, asked what he must do to be saved. Paul responded, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household” (Acts 16:31). That very night, the jailer and his family were baptized, demonstrating that salvation brings joy and transformation to entire households.

There was a family who faced a severe financial crisis. The father lost his job, the mother was battling illness, and their children were struggling in school due to stress. It seemed as if everything was falling apart. But instead of giving in to fear and despair, they turned to God, praying and declaring His promises. They clung to Philippians 4:19, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Despite the hardships, they continued trusting God. Miraculously, doors began to open-a new job opportunity, unexpected financial provision, and improved health. Their testimony became a reminder that when a family stands firm in faith, God turns their trials into triumphs.

Characteristics

of a Victorious Family

Faith in God’s Promises – A victorious family

relies on the Word of God. Joshua 24:15 declares, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Such a family prioritizes worship, prayer, and obedience to God.

Unity and Love – 1 Corinthians 13:7 teaches that love “always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” A family that loves unconditionally overcomes misunderstandings and remains steadfast through life’s storms.

Resilience in Trials - James 1:2-3 encourages believers to “consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” A victorious family endures difficulties, knowing that God works all things for their good (Romans 8:28).

Forgiveness and GraceJust as Christ forgave, a victorious family practices grace and reconciliation. Colossians 3:13 reminds us to “bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

A victorious family is not one without struggles but one that overcomes through Christ. The power of Jesus’ death and resurrection is the foundation for triumph in family life. By trusting in God, living in unity, and persevering in faith, families can experience the abundant life that Jesus promised (John 10:10). May every household claim the victory of the cross and walk in the fullness of God’s blessings, knowing that they are more than conquerors through Christ (Romans 8:37).

The Bible teaches us that faith is essential to pleasing God. As Hebrews 11:6 states, "Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Faith is not just about believing in God's existence but also trusting that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Increasing our faith requires a deeper relationship with Christ, total

dependence on Him, and standing firmly on His promises.

Understanding Faith: The Mustard Seed Principle

In Luke 17:5-6, the disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, increase our faith!" Jesus responded, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you." This profound teaching highlights that the size of our faith is not what matters most; rather, it is the greatness of the God in whom we place our trust.

Faith is not about measuring how much we believe but about whom we believe in. When we stop looking at our circumstances and start focusing on Christ, our faith begins to grow. Paul writes in Colossians 1:27, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." Our faith increases when Christ increases within us.

Growing in Faith Through Trials

Difficult circumstances provide opportuni-ties for our faith to grow. It is in our weakest moments that God’s strength is revealed. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, the Lord told Paul, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." When we surrender our strength, human understanding, and self-reliance, we allow Christ to work powerfully within us.

When we face challenges, instead of depending on our own abilities, we should shift our focus to God’s power. Trusting God in difficult times refines our faith, much like gold is refined through fire (1 Peter 1:7). Every great

miracle in the Bible happened when people placed complete trust in Godwhether it was Moses parting the Red Sea, David defeating Goliath, or Daniel being protected in the lion’s den.

Letting Go to Receive More

Faith grows when we surrender our attachments and depend wholly on God. In Matthew 19:29-30, Jesus assures us, "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life." This promise is a call to prioritize God above all else.

Many times, we rely on our wealth, status, or human connections for security. But true faith requires us to let go of worldly dependencies and trust God’s provision. When we do this, He blesses us abundantly, not just spiritually but also in every aspect of our lives.

Practical Steps to Strengthen Faith

Faith is not passive; it must be cultivated through action. Here are some practical ways to increase our faith:

Daily Scripture Reading – Romans 10:17 says, "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." The more we immerse ourselves in God’s Word, the stronger our faith becomes. The Bible is filled with promises, and meditating on them strengthens our trust in God.

Praying According to God's Word –

Faith-filled prayers are rooted in Scripture. When we pray, saying, "Lord,

You have promised this in Your Word. Do it for me," we are standing on His promises. James 5:16 reminds us that "the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."

Listening to God’s Voice – Faith grows when we actively seek to hear God speak. Whether through prayer, worship, or moments of stillness, being sensitive to the Holy Spirit strengthens our trust in Him.

Acting on Faith – Faith requires action. James 2:17 states, "Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." When God speaks, we must step out in obedience, even if circumstances seem uncertain.

Surrounding Ourselves with FaithBuilding Testimonies – Hearing stories of how God has worked in others' lives encourages and builds our own faith. Just as the testimonies in the Bible inspire us, present-day miracles remind us of God’s continued faithfulness.

Faith is not a one-time event but a continuous journey of trusting God more deeply each day. It is not about how much faith we have but about increasing Christ within us. When we surrender our strength, worldly dependencies, and fears to Him, our faith is strengthened, and miracles begin to unfold.

Faith is cultivated through seeking God, standing on His Word, and acting in obedience. As we grow in faith, we will experience the supernatural power of God at work in our lives. May Christ increase in us, and may our faith rise to new heights, bringing glory to God in all we do.

A Glimpse of God’s Mighty Works

“I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?” (Jeremiah 32:27)

As led by the Lord, recently, we conducted an All-Night Miracle Prayer at Dr. D.G.S. Dhinakaran Prayer Tower, seeking deliverance and prosperity for all who attended. Thousands of people filled the Prayer Tower, lifting their voices in faith, believing for breakthroughs. As a family, we had the privilege of ministering, and the presence of God was overwhelming.

But the move of God didn’t stop there. This All-Night Prayer was held simultaneously in 106 Prayer Towers across India. Thousands

joined in fervent prayer, and many experienced God’s miraculous deliverance and restoration. Chains were broken, burdens lifted, and lives were transformed as the power of God’s glory moved mightily.

On March 8th, we were also blessed to minister in the All-Night Prayer at the New Life Assembly of God Church, where, once again, God’s presence was tangible as the Holy Spirit moved mightily among His people. We give all the glory to God for making these events a blessing to several thousands. He continues to hear prayers, manifest His power, and pour out His grace on those who seek Him.

Testimony of God's Miraculous Work in Ranchi

Healed from Ovarian Cyst

Since 2017, I had a cyst in my ovary that severely affected my health. My father and I travelled frequently from Ranchi to Rourkela for treatment, but nothing seemed to work. Doctors warned that if my hormones remained imbalanced, the cyst could turn into ovarian cancer. In February 2023, I attended a prayer meeting at the Ranchi Jesus Calls Prayer Tower. There, God’s servant prayed for me, and the Lord miraculously healed me. From that day forward, I have been completely well. I praise God for His mercy and healing power. - Kiran Kerketta, Ranchi

Dear friend,

I wish you to enter into victory even during this Easter season. In a world filled with challenges, struggles, and uncertainties, it can sometimes feel like we are fighting an uphill battle. As young people, we face pressures from school, friendships, family, and society. Anxiety, self-doubt, and fear can often creep into our hearts, making us wonder if we are strong enough to overcome life's difficulties. But the truth is, we don’t have to face these battles alone. Jesus’ victory on the cross has already secured our victory in every area of life, making us more than overcomers.

The Power of Jesus’ Victory

When Jesus died on the cross and rose again, He defeated sin, death, and all the powers of darkness. His sacrifice was not just an event in history but a declaration of victory for all who believe in Him. Romans 8:37

reminds us, “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” This means that as believers, we are not just barely surviving-we are thriving, victorious, and empowered by the strength of Jesus. Through Jesus' victory, you will be able to be victorious in your life in the following ways:

Overcoming Fear and Anxiety

One of the biggest battles young people face today is anxiety and fear about the future. Whether it’s worrying about exams, relationships, or what lies ahead, fear can be overwhelming. But Jesus has already overcome fear. In John 16:33, He says, “In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Because of His victory, we can trust that He is in control of our lives. Instead of letting fear consume us, we can place our confidence in Him, knowing that He has already made a way for us.

Victory Over Temptation

Temptations surround us daily-temptations to give in to peer pressure, compromise our values, or walk away from our faith. But Jesus' victory on the cross gives us the strength to say no to sin and yes to righteousness. 1 Corinthians 10:13 assures us, “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” Because of Jesus, we have the power to stand firm and choose what is right, even when it’s difficult.

Triumph Over Low Self-Worth

Many young people struggle with feelings of inadequacy, insecurity, and selfdoubt. Social media, comparisons, and societal expectations often make us feel like we are not enough. But Jesus’ victory on the cross tells a different story. He declares that we are loved, chosen, and valuable. Eph. 2:10 says, “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Our identity is not found in what others think of us but in who Jesus says we are. When we understand this, we can walk with confidence, knowing that we are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Strength to Face Life’s Challenges

Life is full of unexpected challenges, and sometimes, we may feel like giving up. But because Jesus has already won the ultimate battle, we can press on with strength and hope. Philippians 4:13 reminds us, “I can do all things

through Christ who strengthens me.” No matter what comes our way, we have divine strength to endure, persevere, and overcome. Jesus’ victory ensures that we are never alone and that we have everything we need to succeed.

How to Walk in Victory Daily?

Living as an overcomer means walking in the truth of Jesus’ victory every day. Here are some practical ways to do this:

Stay Connected to God – Spend time in prayer, reading the Bible, and worshiping God. The more we draw near to Him, the more His strength becomes ours.

Surround Yourself with Encouraging People – Friends who uplift and support you in your faith journey will help you stay strong.

Declare God’s Promises Over Your Life – Speak words of faith and victory over yourself. Remind yourself daily of what God says about you.

Step Out in Boldness –Don’t be afraid to live out your faith. Trust that God has given you everything you need to fulfill His purpose for your life. Because of Jesus’ victory on the cross, we are not just survivors - we are overcomers. No matter what challenges we face, we can walk with confidence, knowing that He has already won the battle for us. Fear, temptation, insecurity, and struggles do not define us; Jesus does. His love, power, and grace empower us to live boldly, knowing that in Him, we are more than conquerors. So, let’s embrace this truth, step into our victory, and live with the assurance that Jesus has already made us victorious in every area of life. May this Easter season renew your hope in the victory God has in store for your future. God bless you, my friend.

The Jesus Calls Young Partners Plan is a divine initiative that nurtures children and youth through continuous prayers, ensuring they receive God’s wisdom, prosperity, and protection.

*WISDOM - Daniel was taken captive to Babylon as a young boy, yet he excelled because of God’s wisdom. Daniel 1:17 says, "To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning, and Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds."

Like Daniel, young partners are prayed for to receive divine wisdom, helping them excel in studies and life.

*PROSPERITY - Even in captivity, Daniel prospered because God had a plan for him. Jeremiah 29:11 promises, "For I know the plans I have for you… plans to prosper you." Through prayers, young partners receive God’s favor to prosper in academics, career, and personal growth.

*PROTECTION - Daniel’s unwavering faith led him to a den of lions, yet God’s angels shut their mouths (Daniel 6:22). Similarly, young partners are covered in prayer for divine protection in all circumstances.

Through the Young Partners Plan, children receive the same divine guidance and blessings that sustained Daniel, shaping them into God’s chosen leaders.

Millions of young people are witnesses to the wisdom, prosperity and protection they have received from God by being partners in this plan.

Sis. Vasanthi shares her testimony for your encouragement: In our entire family, I was the only one who knew the Lord. With a heart full of faith, I enrolled my son, Sarathkumar, in the Jesus Calls Young Partners Plan, trusting that God would guide his life. From that moment, I began to see His hand at work.

Though my husband, Arunachalam, lost his job, and we faced severe financial struggles, God’s favor was upon our son. He excelled in

his studies, and during campus placements, he was selected by six different companies. He started working for one of them and served there for two years.

Then, the Holy Spirit led him to start his own electrical business. Today, he is a successful businessman, providing jobs to many. Even those who studied alongside him now work for him. He travels internationally for business and is blessed with a loving wife and a son, who is also a Young Partner.

I have seen firsthand that the Lord watches over the righteous, orders their steps, and blesses them abundantly. He not only lifted my son but also strengthened my faith. May God bless you and your children with the same divine increase.

Just like Sis. Vasanthi you too can witness God's choicest blessings in your children's lives by enrolling in this plan.

Here's how another sister who pledged to give 10 times to the Lord became a mighty testimony for His glory:

My daughter, Keziah Glaxton, appeared for her Class 10th examinations with much apprehension. During this time of uncertainty, we sought prayers from the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower, and the intercessors fervently prayed for her success. I made a vow to donate ten times her score as a token of gratitude and faith. By God's immense grace, Keziah achieved 482 out of 500, and we joyfully fulfilled our promise, giving all glory to God.

- Sneha Glaxton, Chennai

You too will certainly witness mighty miracles as you choose to support us with your donations. Enrol and experience God's promises being fulfilled in young lives.

In the Bible, we read in I Peter 2:21 that “Christ left us an example that we should follow His steps.” Hence, we ought to carefully read His life in the Bible and follow His example by walking in His steps and thereby fulfill His will in our lives, perfectly. The Lord says in John 6:38,

“For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.”

Thus, the Lord Jesus Christ was incarnate on this earth as a Man, lived according to His will and finally accomplished His will perfectly on the cross. Today, He is seated on the right hand of God, the Father, having conquered everything. Let us briefly examine on how the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished the will of God in His life and commit our lives to fulfil His will.

“Who (He) desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”
(I Timothy 2:4)

According to His will, Jesus, the Son of God,

gave Himself for us on the cross as a living sacrifice that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works (Titus 2:14). We read in Hebrews 9:14 that the blood of Jesus, shed on the cross, cleanses our conscience from dead works and transforms us into saints, devoid of sins.

In the Bible, a man called Saul, was doing all evil things against Jesus and tortured all those who were saints and were true disciples of the Lord and thus was a son of wrath. At this juncture, one noon, a divine light of the presence of Jesus hit him on his eyes and shone around him. Yes, the Lord Jesus Himself came seeking him. That day, His divine love flooded into him. He was changed into a ‘vessel of mercy’ and was filled with His grace. As read in II Corinthians 5:17, “old things passed away and all things became new.” Since the Lord Jesus Christ offered Himself up as a living sacrifice on the cross, today, His blood is changing the lives of millions of people who are in the power of darkness and is making them arise and shine as good witnesses for

Christ. Yes, His sacred blood has given them a new life.

For the glory of God, I would like to share about the divine transformation brought by the blood of Jesus is my own life. I was born and brought up in a traditional Christian family. My family had only ordinary and fundamental Christian experiences such as going to church, reading the Bible as a duty and spending a few minutes in prayer as a routine. In this family of four children, I was born as the youngest child. My elder brothers and sister were obedient children and walked in good ways. However, being the youngest child, I was naughty and was enslaved by worldly pleasures and unwanted characteristics. When I was 16 years old, the divine love of Christ from the cross, flooded into me and hence, even without my knowledge, I chose Him as my Friend and started walking with Him. At my 21 years, I got united with Bro. Dhinakaran as his life partner. After this, because of the love of Cross, manifested through Christ Jesus, the glory of cross worked in me to accept Him as my personal Saviour and to lead a successful family life, in unison with Him.

and thus receive the holy and divine life. When you confess your sins whole heartedly to the Lord, and humbly ask Him like Saul, who changed into Paul, “Lord, what do You want me to do?” (Acts 9:6), you shall receive a divine new life from Him and be blessed.

“But he who does the will of God abides forever (in Christ)”

(I John 2:17)

Saul was the son of perdition. By the grace of God, he was changed into a ‘vessel of mercy’. How was his hope, after that? In Galatians 2:20, he tells about the reason for his transformation thus:

The blood of Jesus, shed by His crucifixion on the cross, transforms us into His saints, devoid of sins

Dearly beloved, examine your own life now, as you read this! Has the blood of Jesus, shed on the cross, cleansed your life of sins, curses, unrighteousness and filth? Have you received the divine life of saying, “I am a new creation in Christ?” If not and if you are still a slave to the devil and the flesh, look up to the love of Christ on the Calvary, crucified on the cross! Let us not stop with meditating more on it in these days but let us draw nearer to the cross, to be cleansed by His blood, shed on the cross

“…it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

Dear ones, after receiving this life of salvation by being washed and cleansed by the blood of Christ, we too should fulfil His will perfectly, with faith and zealous godliness.

Soon after receiving the blessing of salvation, our dear Brother D.G.S. Dhinakaran, held on to the feet of God at the age of 20 and led a God fearing life of good testimony and good works. Saul changed into Paul and perfectly fulfilled the will of God in his life by working zealously and with strong faith. In the same way, Brother too worked for the Lord reverentially since his young age and accomplished the will of God in faith. Hence, the Lord filled us, His family also with the same faith and has miraculously given us the blessed life of fulfilling His will. Till date, He is using us as a blessing to scores of people.

Dear child of God, the Lord wants to thus fulfil His will in your life too. Does your heart desire for fulfilling His will?

David, the man of God, cries out thus,

“As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?”

(Psalm 42:1,2)

Accordingly, you, who are reading this, should kneel down right where you are, in all humility, fold your hands in reverence and cry out to Him! ‘The loving Lord, who hears prayers’ (Psalm 65:2), would immediately answer every plea that you offer with joy, and from the depth of your heart. He will beautifully lead you according to His will and exceedingly abundantly above all that you ask or think and bless you with the glorious and divine life of abiding in the Lord. As a family, we also thank the God of gods, who has given us also this blessed life and who has been miraculously leading us. Thus we rejoice in Him! May the Lord give each one of you, who are reading this, His grace to be thus blessed in an abundant manner!

By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ (Hebrews 10:10).

Dear ones, not stopping with salvation, as we read in Ephesians 4:11, 15, “we should also grow in our spiritual life to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.” In order to receive this spiritual growth, as read in Ephesians 4:23,24, let us;

“be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.”

The blood of Jesus, shed on the cross, cleanses and washes your life of sins, curses, unrighteousness and filth.

“…let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”

(II Corinthians 7:1)

In Malachi 2:11 we read, “The Lord’s holy institution, which He loves” (Malachi 2:11). According to Romans 6:19, “present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness.” In II Thessalonians 2:13, Paul writes, “God has chosen you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.”

It is essential that we put on the new man, which was created in the image of God. In such a life, divine images of righteousness and holiness would be manifested. My dear ones! The Holy Spirit would grant us this holy life of divine experiences. The blood, shed by the Lord Jesus Christ, on the cross, made him conquer death and resurrected Him. After that, by the power of the anointing of the Holy Spirit, today He is seated at the right hand of God in heaven. Likewise, for us to overcome all the sins, curses, unrighteousness and transgressions in this world and to arise and shine as witnesses for Christ, we should also be filled with the Holy Spirit as seen in Acts 10:38. As we see in Acts 2nd chapter, the disciples of the Lord Jesus were filled with the anointing that Jesus had, and with fire and power and arose as good witnesses for Him and yielded fruits for Him.

Dear ones, kindly examine your life! Have we received the above divine life and do we glorify Him as His mighty witnesses by yielding fruits? Or are we still living in this dark, worldly life? In order to receive His divine guidance and to shine as His witnesses, let us humble ourselves to dust and follow His ways shown by Him and let us arise and shine for His glory as seen in Isaiah 61:1-3!

Since my mother is an elderly member in the Esther Prayer Group, she made me join the Youth Esther Prayer Group, even when I was doing my 9th standard and pray with them. On several occasions I had attended the Youth Esther Prayer Group held in the Jesus Calls Prayer Tower, in my school uniform! By the grace of God, I scored good marks in my 10th exams. When I was in my 10th standard, our family was facing acute financial problem. Though I had passed, because of lack of money, it seemed as if I could not pursue my higher studies. That time, my grand-mother took me to several places, with the intention to join me in any secondary teacher training course. But all her efforts proved futile. In many places, the educational fee was high. However, since I had joined the Youth Esther Prayer Group and was praying for other young girls, the Lord looked upon me as said in the verse, “The Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends’ and helped me to complete my 11th and 12th standard. Also, He helped me to successfully complete my higher studies in Teacher’s Training college and enabled me to complete B. Sc., M.Sc. and M.Phil.

Once, the Family Blessing Meeting was held in Vanagaram, Chennai. I acted in the skit that was enacted that day. At the end of the meeting dear mother Stella Dhinakaran invited all the participants of the skit, for prayers. She met me personally and fondly inquired of me. That time I was doing my final year M. Sc., Dear mother prayed for me prophetically and

said that I would complete M.Sc and then M.Phil as well as Ph. D and that the Lord would bless me with a good job and a life partner, soon after that. I too claimed those words in faith and was praying. As dear mother Stella had prayed, after my M.Sc, the Lord helped me to get into M.Phil amidst heavy competition. I had no facility to do M.Phil. However, my Guide Madam, encouraged me to do Ph. D also but I had no money. So I prayed that the Lord should bless me with a job so that I would be able to meet my educational needs. Accordingly, the Lord granted me favour in the eyes of the faculty working in the same college where I studied and helped me to get a job as a guest lecturer. In 2019 I got married. My husband was working in Brazil. He had to leave for Brazil after 10 days of marriage. I had planned to join him after 3 months. However, because of Covid, which was at its peak then, there was lot of difficulties in processing my visa. Twice my visa was rejected. After this, my mother requested dear mother Stella to pray for that and she too prayed with burden for me. The Lord heard the prayer and enabled me to get the visa within the next few days. Also, many people discouraged me by telling lot of negative things and tried to intimidate me. However, miraculously the Lord helped me to reach Brazil. In His mercy, He made me conceive that same month. My mother was not with me to take care of me. But the Lord was with me, protected me miraculously and has blessed me with a beautiful girl baby. He blessed me according to the Scriptures, ‘He makes everything beautiful at its time” – Joy Ruby Violet, Chennai.

Deprived children face many limitations that hinder their ability to live, learn, and thrive. While education is a powerful tool that can break barriers to such children’s social mobility, allowing them to climb the economic ladder, acquiring quality education is often a challenge for them, as their families mostly prioritize immediate needs over long-term educational investments.

SEESHA believes every child deserves a chance at a better future. So, we empower children from underserved communities through quality education, tools to continue learning, and opportunities to break free from the cycle of poverty.

To enable full participation of students in the classroom, unleash their creativity, and provide them with an optimal learning experience, SEESHA has been supporting students in need with a gift of school kits that comprise stationery items every academic year. These school kits are more than just stationery; they are vital resources that build children's confidence, kindle their desire to learn, and ensure they pursue schooling without dropping out, despite financial hardships.

Equipped to excel, empowered to thrive!

“I'm a class 4 student living in Movnipada. Being a daily wage-earning farmer, my father finds it difficult to manage our household expenses & my schooling costs.

Thanks to SEESHA's gift of a school bag with stationery items every year, I feel empowered to continue my school journey along with my classmates with dignity. With SEESHA's support, I hope I’ll realize my dream of becoming a doctor one day!”
