My dear friend, today, there is hope in the Lord. You are not alone. Someone is here to help you, to fight through your situation, and to bring you hope and a future. As it is written in II Timothy 1:7, “For the Spirit that God gives does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.” The Spirit that God gives is not one of fear but of power.
Perhaps today, you are facing a situation that fills you with fear, making it hard to take the next step forward. I remember a time when we visited New Zealand for ministry, and after our meetings, a pastor’s family took us to a towering structure. They handed us a cord, inviting us to jump from the building with it. It was a terrifying yet thrilling experience. As I stood at the edge, looking down, I saw nothing beneath me. My foot trembled, hesitant to take that step. It was a leap of faith. You may be in a similar place right now, seeing nothing ahead, no visible ground beneath your feet, afraid to move forward. Perhaps it is the lack of resources, the absence of support from people, or the fear of the vision before you.
This was exactly how my father felt in 2008 when his father passed away. Fear gripped him as he thought, “Who will take care of the people we have ministered to all these years? How am I going to lead this ministry forward?” He was praying night and day like this for so many days, seeking a clear direction from God. Then, on this day, March 14, 2008, the Lord gave him a divine revelation that changed everything. His fear melted away as God spoke: "I will pour My Spirit on all flesh; My sons and daughters will prophesy. I will give the prophetic grace for this ministry." That was the birth of the Delhi Prayer Tower, a place where intercessors began to prophesy over the nation. Soon, Prayer Towers were established across the country, and countless people rose up to pray for others. God led my father to prophesy to various national leaders.
In Karunya, God gave him a great vision to establish the university in four key areas to bring solutions to human problems. From strength to strength, Karunya University has grown, forging global collaborations, and today, it stands with an A++ top accreditation in the nation.
One moment of God’s strengthening power changed everything. So much has been established through the new Spirit He gives. Let us receive this Spirit of Power right now!
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, thank You for giving me Your Spirit, which is one of power. You are my comforter and my strength, and You are my guide. In moments of weakness, please lift me up and make me strong. When fear holds me back, give me the courage to step forward. Open doors that no one can shut and lead me into Your perfect plan. Empower me by Your Holy Spirit to walk boldly in faith. Let every obstacle in my life be removed and every need be met by Your divine provision. Fill my heart with Your peace, and let me be established in all that You have purposed for my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
