Dear praying friends,
Today is the 48th Anniversary of our calling
See again
10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.
I am called to be an eye and ear witness of God – “Ye are my witnesses”
After 48 short years God has shown His servant great marvelous answers to prayer
Psalm 34: 6-8
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
I remember a story of long ago. How a poor shepherd boy became a King one day through the goodness of God. So that the King always whenever he goes to God in prayer. He will close the door. Took out his poor shepherd clothes and after putting aside his Kingly rope he will put on those old sheperd’s clothes & kneel before God
This is how I should always remember when approaching God. I am the “poor man” that cried. Not just once or twice but a life long crying to God. This promise cannot fail “This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles”
May we refresh all with our Introduction since year 2011 (10th Anniversary now since this Prayer Website was set up to the Praise of His Glory)
What is possible for God Almighty to do, prayer can do. I have spent a very blessed 40 years observing and proving God to be true to His Word, “Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkingness of the LORD (Psalm 107:43).” These things refer to four catastrophic events in the Book of Psalm 107, men in starvation “Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them (vs. 5)”. Men in despair “..they fell down, and there was none to help (vs. 12). Men in danger of loosing their lives “..they draw near unto the gates of death {vs.18). And seaman like John Newton “They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep. For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble. They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit’s end. (vs.23-27)” All these four groups in total helplessness finally turn to God “THEN THEY CRY UNTO THE LORD IN THEIR TROUBLE, AND HE BRINGETH THEM OUT OF THEIR DISTRESSES (vs. 6, 13, 19 & 28)”. Amazing Grace! How sweet The Sound! ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear. And grace my fears relieved.” And the Bible mentions 4 times “OH THAT MEN WOULD PRAISE THE LORD FOR HIS GOODNESS, AND FOR HIS WONDERFUL WORKS TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN!” (vs. 8,15,21 &31)
I want to share with you that our God is the Living God! He constantly hear and answer prayers, not just once in awhile, but consistently and without fail for 40 long years. He has exalted His Word above His Name; therefore HIS PROMISES CANNOT FAIL!
” Faith – Mighty Faith !
The Promise sees:
Laugh at unbelieve;
And cry, “IT SHALL BE DONE!”
I can testify 1st hand these true words ” This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles (Psalm34:6}” And “The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him (vs.7&8)”
The God who sent down fire when Elijah prayed, the Risen Lord Jesus who appeared to Paul on Damascus road, the God of George Mueller and John Sung is the same Living God today.
As this poem say,
“God is seeking faithful men
Who dare to stand alone
Counting not the sacrifice
To make His purpose known.
Now God searches all the earth
To show His Strength to men!
Those whose hearts are pure toward God
Can know His Power again!”
Please pray for the anointing of the Holy Spirit as you read. May our GOOD LORD be a living, bright reality all the days of your life. Marantha!

Our LORD’s Coming is nearer today than 10 years ago. His coming is drawing nearer and nearer each last day
And the greatest thing in all my life is knowing, loving & serving Him
