We are grateful to come together in prayer for Anandh's request, seeking God's will and blessing for their business and ministry efforts, especially as they prepare for the upcoming Christmas and New Year season. It is wonderful to see that this business has such an important kingdom focus to share the gospel through.
Firstly, we commend Anandh for acknowledging the power of Jesus' name. How important is is to remember that we can only receive God's blessing and only have access to God in Jesus Christ. As the Bible says, For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Therefore, we should bring all our prayers to God in the name of Jesus Christ. This is echoed in John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
We stand with Anandh in praying for financial blessings. Let's turn to 2 Thes 3:10-13 :
For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone is not willing to work, dont let him eat. For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who do not work at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But you, brothers, dont be weary in doing well.
We can see that God expects his people to work and earn our own bread. And Anandh acknowledges this in seeking opportunities to generate income from their business. But it is also important to remember that this business exists for more than just generating income for itself. The more we have, the more we have to give. And with this generous attitude comes great reward. But remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. So while asking for income, let's ask that God will also provide all that is needed to bless others, to give gifts to the needy, to spread the gospel.
We are also pleased to see Anandh's heart for the lost. How wonderful is it to see a heart for ministry. In Matthew 28:19-20 Jesus tells us Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen.
Anandh is showing a commitment to saying no one should go to hell. What a beautiful objective. That heaven be full and hell empty. What a burden for souls. We are in complete agreement with this Anandh. Because as the word of God says For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost. God does not desire for anyone to perish.
Let us pray,
Father in heaven, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, your son who died for our sins. We ask for your blessing on Anandh's business, that you will provide ample opportunities for income, but more importantly an income with a purpose to further your Kingdom. May this income allow for the purchase of gifts, Bibles, and other materials to reach the lost for Jesus. Open doors for Anandh to meet new souls during this Christmas and New Year season, and give them the courage and wisdom to share the good news of Jesus Christ with all who will listen. We declare that no soul should go to hell and heaven will be full and hell empty. We ask this all in Jesus' name because it is in his name that we have access to God and salvation. Amen.
