Blessed are your eyes, for they see!

Mat 13:14,15  Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says: “You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive.” 

For this people's heart has grown dull, and with their ears they can barely hear, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.’ 

Mat 13:16,17  But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 

For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

Two kinds of eyes, ears and hearts are mentioned  here.

1. Eyes that see but never perceive, ears hear but never understand, hearts which have grown dull.
2. Eyes that see, ears that hear.

Prophet Isaiah was given a command  to close their eyes and ears.

Joh 12:40  “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.” 

In Acts 26:17,18

Act 26:17  .....delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you,   to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’ 

Paul is called out and sent to the gentiles and to His own people to open their eyes.

Today

Through Daniel Academy 400-500 soldiers are entrusted to our care. We have been given a great responsibility of  opening  their eyes.

Eyes are closed in various ways.

1. “God Himself has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart Joh 12:40 
2. The god of this world blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel (2 Cor 4:4)
3. Darkness will blind the eyes of those who hate their brothers. (1Jn 2:11)

Let’s start praying for them

Surrender them to the Lord

Mentor them through the student coordinator

Prepare them for their future career in ministry

They can become  the pillars of the Church in India  

Those whose eyes see

Can  interpret anything and everything in the perception of the Lord.

Can hear the voice of the Lord anywhere, and in anything. .

The Lord can speak through

A Potter

A Baker

A bare footer

A farmer

A shepherd

A vine dresser

A blasphemer etc.

Only a man of God can interpret and understand what the Lord speaks through them.

Many would have seen a potter making a pot but only Jeremiah could derive the message of God out of it.(Jer 18:1-10)

Many would have seen  basketful of fig trees. But when Jeremiah saw 2 baskets of fig trees, he could interpret the message of God.(Jer 24:2-10)

Let our eyes and ears be open and our hearts alert and receptive to the messages the Lord is speaking 24 hours of the day through all the incidents that happen in our life.

Psalm: 91:5,6 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

Have you ever thought what causes us to fear? Are we afraid of death? The answer is this bodily abode which is subject to all sorts of dangers! Not only people of this world but even saints of God have a fear while abiding in this ‘tabernacle’ of flesh. Let’s see how…

There are infinite fears attached with a person’s body – it is prone to attacks by diseases, enemy, torture—mental and physical, heat, cold, hunger, lusts, tiredness, restlessness, pain – they are endless.

Even the saints of God are conscious of not allowing any evil thought or temptation to enter into their minds. So, when they trust God and wear His armour, they overcome their corporal thoughts and all fears of flesh lose their significance, be it evil designs or attacks of enemy, any danger prowling in darkness, destructive elements etc.

Another reason is that they trust in the restoration powers of the Creator. Even if a loss occurs, the Sovereign Lord has the power to restore it!

When we trust our omnipotent God and abide in His Heavenly Home, all the terrors associated with flesh become insignificant, be it attacks of the evil one or infirmities of the flesh.

Psalms 112:7

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

(Psalms 56:4, Psalms 56:3, 2 Chronicles 20:9, Psalms 103:3-4)

I praise and thank God for all His mercy and grace upon my life. I joined BFF classes during lockdown in July 2020. During one of the meetings of our own local church, I mentioned about Army of Jesus and the amazing classes. The next day our church Pastor called me up and very sternly stopped me from joining any classes in AOJ and sent me a link in relation to information about Sister Angelica. He objected AOJ doctrines and condemned it as a cult.

I didn't want to leave in the middle of the classes so I continued. My husband also objected but still I didn't stop. Praise God.

Yesterday Pastor again called and he said he will visit us, since we are not attending any meetings or duties in church. He came today and we greeted him warmly. I thank God that Pastor didn't bring up anything about AOJ. We always give an offering envelope whenever Pastor visits our home. But this time we didn't give, in return he bought spices from us.

I thank God that His will was done. I give all glory to God.    

SOL. SHANKAR - As I was returning home I saw two ladies searching for someone close to his house. He approached them and asked whom they were searching for, to which they said that they were visiting all the houses to ask for donations to build a temple. Bro came home and asked his wife if anyone had come to which his wife said that nobody had come to their house. As the ladies were in their building Bro Shankar's wife Sol. Sejal was worshipping which was a barrier for those ladies.

Brother Rakesh from J & K had paralysis of the figures of his feet. After Prayers and sharing the Word of God, he was cured and could also feel the sensation of Pinch. But now the Problem had shifted to his Back and he had Pain in the Back. God showed Sis Nikita that he had gone to a Tantrik for healing. It is because of this OCCULT PRACTICE that he was getting such attacks. His one Hand & Leg used to get paralysed. Only while reading Bible it was ok. They told him to repent after which he got full healing. God increased his Faith. 

SOL. SHOBHA FROM J & K - This Sister is staying in Srinagar. She was unable to eat food for the past 9 months and was only having liquid diet. When Sis Nikita and her husband had gone on a trip to Srinagar, Sis Ruksana introduced them to Sis Shobha. They Prayed over her and asked her to have her meal in the name of Jesus Christ. She had dal rice without any problem. Next day they asked her to share chicken & rice with them. She was able to eat without any pain or problem. She is cured in the name of Jesus.

SOL. DR.HIMAKSHI - My daughter used to complain about pain in head frequently. I prayed and rebuked the spirit of headache according to Mathew 18:18 and Luke 10:19. And she was healed completely.  God told me to have complete faith on him. All glory to our living God. I and Jasmine aunty prayed together for my husband's transfer to Delhi and God did it miraculously.  Thank you Jesus. And now I have shifted by the grace of God.

I was praying to God to bless me with my own house and God bless me with my own house this year end as prophesied by sister Anju during the troop church. I was having a bad and severe cough for the last 3 months and through prayers I am healed. As the word says by his stripes we are healed. Amen.

I want to thank God for all the blessings in my life.

Thank you Jesus.

SOL KHUSHI - I want to thank the Lord for the vision 2020 where we had become strong in the Word of God. I want a blessing for all our leaders/seniors/soldiers who helped us in the word of God. Previously we used to look for pastors and church and others for our prayers and healings but after attending the classes of AOJ we have learnt a lot of things and have understood that we should only pray to God and work according to the word of God and love our Lord. Second commandment is to love our neighbours and we have learnt a lot from our neighbours.  In troop church we learnt that we should use our tongue to bless. Love your enemies and bless them. I want to thank all who helped me to connect directly to God. Now I pray for others with faith in Jesus name and things happen and I tell others to grow in the Word and Lord. I want to thank sis Jasmine, sis Usha, sis Angelica and others of BFF and financial discipline people who taught us and the teachings according to the word be multiplied in the our life. Amen

SOL. LORRAINE - Sol. Maria Daugikar's son had met with an accident 4months back and is still on treatment in Dubai. He was operated on his knee and the wound was not healing. Two days back the doctors saw the wound on his knee and said that as the wound was not healing they have to amputate the leg. Sol Maria asked the AOJ Soldiers of Goa to hold her son in prayer. On 28th January during morning prayer and worship the intercessory prayer was raised for Myron. Same day in the afternoon when the doctors opened the dressing they found that the wound was healing and there was no need of amputation. Al glory to our Lord Jesus Christ who is a prayer answering God.

SOL.JOHNSON SAMUEL born in a Christian family in Kerala as a younger brother of three sisters. My parents were God fearing and they brought us up God fearing. Every day morning prayers and evening prayers was a must in our home, very strictly disciplined us. We were members of Jacobite church and one of our family friends were Pentecost so Pentecost pastors also visited our home regularly. When I was 17, I was studying in class 12 a Pentecost pastor visited us and he stayed overnight because he wanted to take my father along with him somewhere the next day. That time I had a pain on my right foot and it was increasing day by day so my father gave me a massage on my foot as he was known to do the slip legs. In the next morning 4 am every one came to the middle room for prayer I was not able to stand on my feet due to pain. After prayers I called my father and told my situation and he tried to lift me up but I couldn't stand I fell on the ground, both my legs were paralyzed. The pastor prayed for me and asked is there is any reason of correction due to this situation arised. My mother informed that my father used to smoke regularly even when he go to church and she showed the bundles of beedi. Then pastor told my father to burn the bundles and don't do this again because your only sons life matters. By then my father never smoked till his last breath. Then pastor asked me God will heal you or want to take you to hospital, suddenly I thought no doctors can heal me but only my God. By the evening my full body got paralyzed and bedridden for more than a month. One Sunday pastor told that he won't drink or eat till Johnson walks and all the believers come at home and started prayers day and night. In one room where my bed was all the brothers and pastor was praying and in the next room all sisters. One of the sisters she was the pastors sister kept a rod near to my bed and told me whenever you want to stand take the help of rod and start praising God and start to walk.  Next Wednesday evening there was a shout from the sisters room and all the brothers went to sisters room which was the shout of my elder sister she was possessed with an evil spirit. The prayers and all were in Holy Spirit speaking other languages and rebuking the satan I couldn't stop me further to lay down. I started Praising and tried to pick the stick and rolled down and stand on my knees and started to walk with the help of stick and hold on the wall. By the time the evil spirit went and all opened their eyes and saw I am standing on the doors. Praise to God. The next Friday I walked 4 kms to church. All through these times there was pressures from my college, relatives, villagers to take me to hospital and people caught my father and threatened him to beat otherwise take me to hospital. But in front of all I walked to the church and I am standing on my feet till now by the grace of God. On 31 December 1984 I got water baptism and within 2 months my God baptised me with his Holy Spirit. All my family are Pentecost believers after my healing and one of my sisters is in full time ministry as a nun.  During these years I experienced so many healing and blessings of my Beloved God it cannot be expressed with few words. I joined AOJ in last month and in the beginning I didn't want to but after knowing the real vision of Sis Angelica and her preaching I got attracted and started attending meetings in North Region Isaac Group and also wished to share my experiences to my relatives and organise a troop church in Kerala. As I got opportunity to visit Kerala God guided me to start group with the help of other soldiers in AOJ. I surrender myself in the hands of my God to use me as I am not worthy to get this much but the grace of my God. I need prayers because I don't have much capabilities but whatever I have is from him only.   Praise be to God

When they prayed, the Lord showed a vision about a clinic close to his house to Sol Ratna, so she asked the Bro about the clinic to which he said that the clinic is situated very close to his house. The next day Bro went to the clinic and asked for the life certificate which the Dr issued to him without any problem. All glory to our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
