thanks for joining my network, peace to you;

Hi Gerry, welcome........!

Thank you for joining my network. God Bless.

"For where two or three come together in My name, I am there with them" (Matthew 18:20 TEV).


Any successful marriage is built upon the biblical truth that God designed each of us with five purposes in mind: worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and missions.

Until you realize you and your mate were placed together for God's purposes, then your marriage will be difficult, complicated, and exhausting. But once you understand God's plan, your marriage takes on new meaning.

You and your spouse were formed for God's family. God made an incredible promise about the gathering of even just two believers: "For where two or three come together in My name, I am there with them" (Matthew 18:20 TEV).

So if both you and your spouse are believers, God is already in your marriage working to transform the two of you into a purpose driven family!

Your marriage is a lab for learning how to love like Jesus loves. Within marriage, God has created an opportunity for us to develop a true intimacy and authenticity with another human being.

To go this deep requires genuine, heart-to-heart, gut-level sharing, where you and your spouse get honest about who you are and what's going on in your lives. This happens when you both share your hurts, reveal your feelings, confess your failures, disclose your doubts, admit your fears, acknowledge your weaknesses, and ask each other for help and prayer.

Light the lamps of God’s Love to the Nations
Devotion
(Knowing God, to Overcome Life through Devotion)

In our Hi tech generations, we are able to work in different areas in the ministry with our abilities. Everyone has a message for promoting the gospel. Many of them are good and beneficial to humanity. However, one of the things I found myself praying past 25 years was that, Lord to show my priorities as I have so much time and energy. I want to stay focus on the things, the Lord feels in the most important for me to accomplish at this particular time in my life. It is His time through this for God’s name to be glorified.

My mission is to do develop a great Nation, fulfill God’s vision through our generation. This will be my passion for Christ, who will come again to rule the Nations. God has given a vision for gospel music to tell the love of Christ to all. Music medium is one of the best medium to touch the hearts and minds. This medium is widely using for the outreach programs to glorify His Marvelous Name. Devotional Music will tune the hearts with God. The gospel music is the bridge for man and God. Mainly for elderly people, inability people, blinds, Child and the brine injured people too. Music will commune with God. If, their will be no gospel in the song, then it will be like an empty vessels. My prayer is that, our song will make a great hope into the lives.
“True meaning of Devotion”

Devotion is the Keyword of success in Life. Devotion means to fix on some thing, to focus on some thing specific and pure. The way of devotion is devoting God and surrendering Him. It can either free us or bind us. Devotion is not loudly proclaiming how we devoted. Rather, silently expressing through action. Devotion is for our spiritual developments to our life journey. We can develop for higher and higher each times devotion. It will take away the sorrows from our lives. All shadows become real to us at the time of true devotion.

I found the list of priorities in the Bible: "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these." Mark 12:30-31.

If you are a householder and you devote yourself to your family - that's devotion. If you love your wife with all your heart, try your best to make her happy, and do everything she requests - that's devotion. If you have a friend, and you lay down your life for him or her in a time of need - that is devotion. You have come all this way, spending all your money for the airplane, and spending your time sitting for your own liberation and world peace - that's devotion. Whatever you do, if it's a good, noble idea and you put in all your effort - that is devotion.

Here are some people following their gurus as they give their child to their god or animal’s blood to their god. Some of them are making loved noise for a long time or doing the yoga meditation with out any sound will be the devotion they believe. We can see in the Holy Bible, Jesus’ devotion was in a lonely place, He was alone. He interceding with God is at a lonely place. Most of the times were early morning. Loving and lessens the voice of God or walking with God to be a devotion.

I am saying this for our own good, not to restrict any one who was doing the proper devotion as for the Bible teach us. You may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord. "And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the LORD searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will reject you forever.
The Lord has in my heart, soul and mind, as that commitment was made long ago. But how can I love Him more with all of my strength? As a Christian, we must all give an account of how we spend our time and energy, as well as our money. According to the above verse, God comes first above all others, which means I need to first give Him my time in prayer, meditation and the reading of the Word. As I do this, He will lead me by the Spirit as to what I am to do daily, and I will then know how to love others properly. This also means that I must give him the first-fruits of my money, since money represents the energy and time we spend in labor of our strength.

I spent time seeking God diligently, and the thing He put on my heart to do during this time was to finish the devotional songs for the people those who have not received Him in his/her personal Lord and savior, I had hope to have it done. However, other battles had to be fought and overcome to bring us to the place of being able to find the time to complete it. Apparently, the Lord feels it is now time to share these things to a larger audience.

O sings unto the Lord a new song: sins unto the Lord all the Earth. Sing unto the Lord bless his name: Show forth his salvation from day to day. (Psalm 96-1)

The Lord spoke to my heart that, as I gave my time to complete the great task for His glory. Since I am unable to come up with the needed funds to do a hardback edition, I am planning to launch with small number of copies Audio CDs, with the other goal still before us. My ambition was to put the seed in to the heart and mind that, the attributes of God, Basic teachings of Jesus, and fundamental lessons from Bible to be present in the souls with tunes. I started these devotional songs from my personal time. I received a commission from God for this devotionals.

It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. The Holy Spirit met me in my writing of these songs at my personal times each day. As I sat down to read the scripture for that day's writing, the words would just begin to flow, as the gift of writing songs that He bestowed upon me speak softly in my heart. I knew that the knowledge and wisdom I was gleaning from this songs within the Holy Scriptures was not just for me, but for the extended family of God, as well. This is the real devotion for my life.

This writing of songs changed my life because of the treasure of wisdom. I discovered from Ten Commandments of God to Moses, Lord’s Prayer to His disciples and sermons on the mountain. The real treasure was that to knowing God and loving Jesus Christ is ultimate Wisdom. If you decide to listens of those devotional songs, and you find just one gem that touches you and brings you into a closer relationship with Him, then my labor of love will bring me a great joy. I will be with you daily through these new songs as you listen to it; but I also expect we shall have that Unseen Visitor with us.

The CDs I wand make that would be very much in Indian music. It can be use any ware in the World. Their will be no rhythms to played for those songs. I personally believe that, who so ever use those songs will be devoted with the Lord and he/she will write new songs. This will happen only the time of interceding. The same thing will happen when the Holy Sprit works on their hearts. I want to present these CDs to the Jails, Hostels, Hospitals, Orphanages and Leprosy colonies, hill-trips and the poor people those who are longing for God. It is your time to act for His glory in our land.

The year of 2000 my spiritual father at Bangalore requested me for their TV program Voice of Love to help him. That was the time I have relished three of my songs audio albums. That was the first time I did the video recording of song for TV program. When the editing work was came to and end of total song, he wanted to listens the song he said. Then he vive the song several times on the same day. The next day again he listens the song before sending the video tape for telecasting. After telecasting the program many letters came with some comment about the song and requesting that to repeat the song on the other programs too. The song was “NEE YAAN KALNGUHERAAI. Many of my songs ware telecasted on that programs Voice of Love. Even now some of my songs ware telecasting at win TV at 5:30am. I thank the Lord for God’s people.

The year of 2002 one great thing was happened in my music ministry. One government auditor’s house, the day of his mother’s death, before funeral service they played the song from my audio tape. It was very much comforting verse. They forgot their worries and played the song again. After the funeral service they met me and explained the things was happened at their house on that particular day. They sheared in to his office and his wife’s hospital at Saudi Arabia, and presented one tape each of the staff. The song was "NEE YAAN KALNGUHERAAI" I hope that, the same song will speak to you personally.

Kindly accept the small gift my audio CDs from my writings. Write your valuable opinions for to do better for His glory for the coming days. Keep it on your prayer of my music ministry. God bless you and your ministry.

Yours in Him
