Editorial
By Sherly Isaac
Naaman was a commander of the army of the king of Syria. He was a great and honorable man in the eyes of his master, because by him the LORD had given victory to Syria. He was also a mighty man of valor, but a leper, (2 Ki 5:1).This man named Naaman was no ordinary man, he was a high ranking officer in the army of the king of Syria. He was victorious, he was a mighty man of valor and he was greatly honorable in the eyes of his master yet he was a leper. He had an incurable disease though he was so talented and honorable. Meanwhile he hears from his slave girl who was brought from Israel, about a prophet in Israel who could help him to be healed of his leprosy. Cutting the long story short, finally he arrives at the house of Elisha the prophet of Israel and stands at his door with his horses and chariots. But instead of coming out, Elisha sends a messenger to tell him, "Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored to you, and you shall be clean”.(2 Ki 5:10) But Naaman got very furious and said (2 Ki 5:11-12), "Indeed, I said to myself, 'He will surely come out to me, and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leprosy.' Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage.Further we find that when his servants spoke to him, he agreed to comply as directed by the prophet. (2 Ki 5:13), "My father, if the prophet had told you to do something great, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, 'Wash, and be clean'?"“So Naaman went down and dipped seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean” (2 Ki 5:14). It was not the water of Jordan that had power to heal him but it was the word of God that came through Elisha and Naaman’s obedience which brought the miracle for himHis abilities, his victories, his status and financial position could not help him in any way, but when he turned to the God of Israel his life was completely changed. Just in a moment he turned from being a leper to a healed person. He might have won many battles but this was the greatest moment in his life. As soon as he came out of the Jordan River, he was a changed man. Not only was he healed physically of his leprosy but also a spiritual transformation took place as he realized that God of Israel is the one true God who has power to heal and restore as we read in 2 Ki 5:15, “And he returned to the man of God, he and all his aides, and came and stood before him; and he said, "Indeed, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel; now therefore, please take a gift from your servant."” In 2 Ki 5:17 we read that Naaman said, “…for your servant will no longer offer either burnt offering or sacrifice to other gods, but to the LORD.”This is what happens to a person when he/she meets God and knows Him personally. A foreign man came to Israel and realized that the God of Israel has some great powers that his gods did not have. But at the same time, the king of Israel who was supposed to represent the God of Israel was ignorant of the mighty power of God. Today also it is possible that you are born and raised in a Christian family and yet you may not know Him personally. But if you come to Him, He will heal the leprosy of your heart and will give you a new life. He will make you whole. Will you acknowledge God as Naaman did?
Celebrating 10 Years of God’s grace!!
Ten years ago on 17th July this newsletter started. When I look back, it is God’s grace that we have endured all these years. God has done great things and blessed many lives through it. We are thankful for the faithfulness and grace of God. With psalmist I can say Psa 116:12-13, “What shall I render to the LORD For all His benefits toward me? I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.I am publishing some of the letters we received through our readers:Dear Sister Shirly Issac,I had mailed a Prayer Request 7 Months before. I said that my marriage is in trouble as my wife left me and took my daughter too with her. But we have a mighty God. He heard your prayers and also mine. Praise the Lord. He made my wife accept me. Ever since then we have been living together for the past 6 months. Please continue to pray for the challenges I am facing.Thank you for your prayers.Your Brother in Christ,IndiaHello Friends!Recently I sent to you a prayer request. At the time I sent the prayer request there was only a 25% chance that baby Caroline wouldn't have to have this surgery. The doctor says Caroline is in the clear and WILL NOT have to have the surgery. She is healing. Praise God! Her mother my niece said that when the Doctor gave her the 25% percent chance then she wouldn't have to have the surgery and wanted her to come back in 2 months he didn't know how many people she could ask to pray during the 2 months before he wanted the baby to be tested again! Thank you and God bless you for praying for our little Caroline.USAGreetings! Many of you have been with me since March 19th, 2006 when my Hepatitis C viral level was at nineteen million (super high) and I was about to begin a one-year painful liver treatment.Over the past year I have felt like a pincushion doing up to 4 injections a week and daily oral medications. The meds have many serious side effects and a couple years back put me in the hospital with severe anemia, requiring emergency blood transfusions.This time around God has spared me of that and praise Jesus at months three, six and nine my hepatitis c was "completely undetectable”. This past Tuesday I DID MY LAST SHOT and will finish the oral meds next week when I take some final tests.The meds can stay in ones system for two or three months so I ask you to pray that my hepatitis c will show up undetectable after six more months, which would be a cure.Please also pray that the slight anemia that shows on tests will disappear, in Jesus name and as a side prayer request that my HIV will also STAY UNDETECTABLE.GOD'S STRONG HAND HAS BEEN ON ME DURING THIS DIFFICULT YEAR (Soon to end) AND YOUR PRAYERS HAVE HELPED STRENGTHEN MY FAITH.By His StripesYour brother.Dear Sister, As of lately I am feeling that insecurity in life as the problems are mounting, in spite of my trying to minimize them. But as soon as I go through your counseling words from the devotionals, it uplifts my heart and I feel relaxed and charged to go on -- keeping me strong in faith. Thanks of Thanks for your encouraging words, guided through our LORD JESUS. Do keep us in your prayers, as this is a crucial time for us.

Five inner chambers in Hell - Part 2
By By D. John Rabindranath
Continued from previous issue…Please read about first three chambers in hell hereThe Fourth Chamber - Those who blasphemed the Holy Spirit:The angel of God took me to the fourth chamber.Luke 16:23 says, And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments and seeing Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."Psalms 89:48 says, "What man is he that lives, shall not see death? Shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave?"When we entered into the fourth chamber I was trembling terribly. I never thought that there would be so many sufferings in the underworld. I felt in my heart that very few things are written in the Holy Bible. But the real hell of fire is extremely bad. O My God! how can I explain to you my beloved ones. I don't wish to write anything of my own before the public. As told by the angel, God wanted me not to hide any thing before the public You have very little time on this earth to expose the divinity of Christ. Christ comes very soon to judge the world."Though the angel of God comforted me so compassionately I was terribly afraid to see the fourth chamber full of darkness and the cry was so terrible that I had to close my ears. Then I remembered the three beautiful verses from the Holy Bible.Psalms 19:13 Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins;Mark 3:29 "but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation";Psalms 105:15 Saying, "Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm."1. Presumptuous sins2. Sin against the Holy Spirit3. Touch not the anointedWhosoever would grieve the Holy Spirit, they would be tormented terribly without any rest. There was no one to comfort the millions of people but the suffering was not less than the other three chambers. It was a great wonder to see even servants of God who had been preaching the Gospels of peace were tormented because they had also blasphemed the Holy Spirit on account of jealousy against other preachers. There were many people who had been fighting inside the churches to find a good position in the committee. And they had blasphemed the presbyters the pastors, the under shepherds and the evangelists. Moreover they were blindfolded. They were anxious to die but the death passed away from them. When the angel told me that these people also should wait until the second coming of Christ and until thousand years rule I could not breathe properly. I prayed this with tears of blood, "Father divine no one should open the mouth to blaspheme the Spirit filled people."I remembered the golden verses of the Acts of the Apostles how Ananias and Sapphira told a lie before the great apostle Peter and died on the spot. It was a matter of few minutes that the husband and wife died on the floor and they were buried (Acts 5:5, 10).Many people think that they can tell lies before the man of God. No, they speak lies before the Holy Spirit which is abiding in the inner most recesses of the man of God who is an anointed vessel of the Most High. My dearly beloved ones please be careful about your mouth.Psalms 32:9 Do not be like the horse or like the mule, Which have no understanding, Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, Else they will not come near you.No more grace. No more forgiveness!Practically I begged the angel of God that I would like to return back to the world. But the angel took my hand and I could not escape from him.The fifth chamber:For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. (Eph 5:12)I was taken into the fifth chamber. The fifth chamber was very terrible. In all other chambers there was darkness, bitterness and other calamities. But in the fifth chamber there was a furnace and the biggest HELL was very hot. The fire sparks everywhere and these people had committed sins very boldly which cannot be explained through human mouth. Most of them were drunkards and jawans (soldiers) who had been using rifles, guns grenades, bombs, nuclear bombs and they were efficient, people who were praised by the different Governments but they had no knowledge to lead a holy life and they had no difference between the wives, the sisters and their own children and they committed whoredom without any fear of God. Their own daughters were all used as the harlots and they were bold to sell their sweet children as harlots and earned very big money and they spent all the money (Gal 5:19-21).Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,Gal 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,Gal 5:21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.It is a great wonder how these people had been receiving so many awards as high officials on this earth and the angel explained to me clearly and asked me to tell this everywhere without having any reservation. The angel said, "Rabi, fear not; tell the truth everywhere so that the people may not come here. Let them not be tormented. You shall be a warning bell! Dearly beloved ones, I could not sleep for many days after this vision. I have not written this with pride or arrogance but I am writing this with the great fear of God. None of these dear people should be bound by the chains of darkness. May God forgive everyone. This is the accepted time and this is the day of Salvation. Turn unto God and lead a holy life. ---------------------------'Fiver inner chambers in Hell' is taken from the book titled "HELL - A Real place of eternal torment and NO- Return" by Pastor Paul David Silway. This book contains a collection of more than 35 real life stories of people and their eye witness accounts of Hell.
Standing in the Gap - Fasting prayer on 9th Sep. 2008
As the Bible says in Ezekiel 22:30 "So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it." And also the Bible says in Numbers 16:48, "And he (Aaron) stood between the dead and the living; so the plague was stopped." We have fasting prayer every second Tuesday of each month. Our next fasting prayer meeting will be conducted on 9th Sep. 2008
