God & me
1. Ministry ofGod
Contents for prayer request – by Deric
The word that gives life was from the beginning. The one who gives eternal life appeared. Christ who is
God came to us as a human. God has given us new birth by his message that lives on forever. He wanted
us to be his own special people and so he sent the true message to give us new birth.
God is the unchangeable reality and an ultimate reward for those who love Him.
God is spirit and Holy and His wisdom and power makes wonders in His invisible quality of life. A
biblical concept gives clear understanding about the entry into the kingdom of God in union of the Father
and Son and Holy Ghost in one Godhead. God has also said that he gave us eternal life and that this life
comes to us from his Son. The scriptures say …… “We know that Jesus Christ the Son of God has come
and has shown us the true God. We now belong to the true God who gives eternal life”.
Righteous see God - The fruits of the spirit such as love, joy, peace, tolerance, patience, kindness,
gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, long suffering & self-control in deed (practically) results in the real
heart circumcision in the living beings. The Righteous are the sons of the Father in heaven.
Heaven & Earth - The living being or human body terms to mean the “city” wherein exists river,
mountains, streams, streets, trees, fruits and so on. The believers’ faith declares that God’s home is with
His people. He lives with them (the righteous in particular) and they will be His own. God himself will be
light in the ‘city’ and the believers are conscious as His wisdom and power make them aware of the
surroundings and sensations and even make them understand by thoughts/feelings. God who sits upon the
throne has the power to save his people. God made great and marvelous promises, so that his nature
would become part of us. Then we could escape our evil desires and the corrupt influences of this world.
God considers the wisdom of this world to be foolish.
The living water that flows in the ‘city’ (living being) gives life - The purity of water (of heavenly river)
depends on the quality of righteousness of the living being concerned.
His rod and His staff that comforts - The rod (spillway or the tube through which the fountain of living
water spills) and staff referred to be His body/companion while living with his people.
The white stone is nothing but a ticket that lets a person into God’s banquet where the “hidden food” is
eaten. (If the kidney goes out of order, the whole body of the living being or the city will get affected). It
is amazing that fruit gives life.
Mansion is of course a star sign - Stars are meant to be living beings such as Angels.
Deliverance to the Captives- The heart that is so deceitful needs to be controlled failing which moral
and sexual behaviour activate way beyond. Satan (evil supernatural or fear or power of devil) has his
thrown (seat) in the heart which is in the centre of the city or in human body. Deliverance to the Captives
is nothing but the fear or the power of devil which exists in the heart could easily be breathed out of
mouth and at the same time it could even be brought down from the heart up to the foot (in self-
control) and stamp him as a waste product. The waste product (fear or power of devil including the
2. angels of Satan) could be burnt with blue flames in the lake of fire. The angels of Satan also could be
thrown into the bottomless pit.
The same procedure of deliverance or guidelines could be adopted for psychotic patients particularly
those who experience or feel in their invisible quality of life stones falling down over their heads due to
attack by fallen angels during the working of Satan (who is dirty mind) either at the initial stage of their
major disaster or during their physical movements. They might even run with fear and suspicion from
place to place not knowing where to go. Healing is so simple. Jesus said “Let not your hearts be
troubled”
In the second coming of the Lord the righteous feel and experience God’s formation of new heaven and
new earth in the ‘city’ (the city that is meant to be the ‘living being’) and in every individual concerned
while establishing His kingdom and see that old heaven and old earth disappear from them (the world and
the desires it causes disappear) as promised by Him…. “Heaven and earth will pass away but my words
will never pass away” as God being the kingdom authority He reigns forever.
Raising of the dead – The dead (including the loved ones) are remembered by the believers (particularly
the Righteous concerned) on choice criteria for life everlasting as His presence in living beings and God
himself being the light in the city, His wisdom and power make believers possible to lead the dead
besides still waters. He gives water from the life-giving fountain to everyone who is thirsty. His rod and
His staff (spillway & companion) comfort them and even a sensitive touch of feeling makes the dead arise
& shine.
God’s curse will no longer be on the people of that city.
The Government is on His shoulder” but on the contrary the rulers of the heathen who are dirty minded
who reign the individuals & families concerned as they like in the society are nothing but show-offs. God
catches the wise when they try to outsmart him.
Note:
1. Due to lack of humility, the pride of the heart deceives the victim. So the soul cannot be restored.
Hatred & jealous also fall on the same category. God opposes proud people and helps everyone
who is humble.
2. Entry into God’s Kingdom is mainly based on ‘Choice Criteria’ as many who are not even known
to Him will be taken in and many who are known to Him will be rejected as they go astray.
3. Jesus alerts -“Let not your hearts be troubled” – Believe in God....believe also in me.. The
troubled hearts experience suspicion and due to emotion the victims might experience earth
quakes/thunders/sign of wars in the ‘city’ (the city that is termed to mean ‘living being’) It leads
every individual concerned to mental disorders that ultimately results in major psychotic
problems where gnashing of teeth becomes common in the field.
4. “All are sinners and fall short of the Gory of God”. God forgives when we repent/confess before
him.
5. God heals - ‘Love’ being the best among all the fruits of the spirit, it heals nations – The love
wipes away many sins when it is adopted. It is amazing that when the B.P shoots up in
hypertension, the tolerance and patience practically brings the victims back to normal and keep
them safe.
3. 6. God cares for you, so turn all your worries over to him. Worry is one the great burdens that
bothers victims and it makes them to go off- track.
7. Everything belongs to you (including the world, life, death, the present and the future) and you
belong to God
8. ‘If you don’t change and become like a child, you will never get into the kingdom of
heaven…But if you are as humble as this child you are the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven…is
the saying of Lord.
9. Faith is nothing but a strong belief in God’s power that controls human destiny and it gives hope
for the future. The spirit that he has given us is proof that we are one with him.
