RSSVERIFY Biblical messages by Cicily Sunny, New York, USA.
Jesus said to the disciples, ”Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature,” (Mark 16:15). Without motivation from the heart no one can do this great job. Only after having an encounter with Jesus in 1995 I got the desire to know God more through the Bible and through the writings and messages of other people who have experienced God. I got the motivation to share with others about my experience, the wonders God has done in the lives of people as narrated in the Bible, the hope of eternal bliss with God, the hard fight we have to do with the devil in this world to obtain that eternal heaven, the need to be thorough with the message of God in the Bible, to establish a relationship with God, to prioritize God in our lives, and to spend time in matters regarding God. Just being a Christian does not mean that all these things happen automatically. We have to caution ourselves every minute of our life against our enemy, who is constantly busy in polluting the minds of people until our heart is fully with him and escape will seem very minimum. “Be sober and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1st Peter 5:8). The Holy Spirit is in our midst for those who seek Him. Jesus said, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be open to you” (Matthew 7:7). When I seriously asked God for help, He talked to me right away. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will enter his house and dine with him, and he with me” (Revelation 3:20). When you try to know God more, more will be revealed to you. Listening to Biblical messages may seem boring, but its effect is miraculous. “Thus faith comes from what is heard, and what is herd comes through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). According to my convictions, knowing who God is, what God had done in the lives of people in the past, how God is working in the lives of people now, how we can make a good friendship with God, how we can unite with God again physically and spiritually will straighten our spiritual, mental and physical wellbeing forever. The Bible is the perfect source for this. Everything said above is connected to my life also.

Helping the Poor is a Command/പാവപ്പെട്ടവരെ സഹായിക്കണമെന്ന് ദൈവത്തിന്റെ ആജ്ഞ
Please note that the 1st part is in English, and the 2nd part is in Malayalam starting at 13:46 mark.
Deuteronomy 15:11 – “For the poor will never cease to be in the land; therefore I command you, saying, “You shall freely open your hand to your brother, to your needy and poor in your land.” " ദരിദ്രൻ ദേശത്തുഅറ്റുപോകയില്ല; അതുകൊണ്ടു നിന്റെ ദേശത്തു അഗതിയും ദരിദ്രനുമായ നിന്റെ സഹോദരന്നുനിന്റെ കൈ മനസ്സോടെ തുറന്നു കൊടുക്കേണമെന്നു ഞാൻ നിന്നോടു ആജ്ഞാപിക്കുന്നു."
The command which God gave to the Israelites 3400 years ago through Moses to help the needy and poor is still applicable to the entire humanity as God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. This is a big challenge to all in my observation. Each time we help the poor, God is honored a lot. At the same time we get blessed in many ways too. If we are able to help the poor and we ignore them purposely, there will be negative effects in our life. Helping the poor gives us the privilege to enter the kingdom of God along with other rewards. Let us think about our status in front of God in helping the poor.
