My beloved children who are so dear to
Christ, I extend my New Year Greetings to you
in the loving name of Jesus Christ!
        Let us thank our Lord for leading us into
a new year! “I will restore to you the years
that the swarming Locusts has eaten.” (Joel
2:25) is the promise that the Lord has made us this
year.
        Our Lord loves us abundantly. The days in which we are
living happens to be the days of revival. This is the time when
people repent and change their lives towards the Lord. These days
the Lord is speaking to us through children's visions and is
preparing many people. Young children have turned out to be
very prayerful. We can see that young children are filled with the
Lord's Holy Spirit. Let us praise the Lord for this.
        We are all praying for you to have this whole year filled
with good health and grace.
        May the lord lead you according to the verse, “The Lord
will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered
garden, And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.”
(Isaiah 58:11)!
        In the month of January, 2021, we will have three days
youth named 'IGNITE'. Pray for this revival camp.
        Apart from praying and reading the Bible every day,
commit yourself to obey the word of the Lord. Be filled with the
                      mighty gifts of the Holy Spirit and rise up
                      and shine for the Lord. May the grace be
                      with you all!
                                             Your beloved Uncle,

What you have lost...
“                                                        ”
 I will restore to you.
                                             Joel 2:25

        As I was waiting in the Lord's presence,
praying for you and this 2021 year, the Lord clearly
              gave a promise, “I will restore to you
              the years that the swarming Locusts
              has eaten.” (Joel 2:25). I am going to
              share that with you.
                        When the Lord says, “I will
               restore to you.” (Joel 2:25) what does
               it mean? It means you have already
               lost something, doesn't it?
                        Due to the spread of the corona
               virus, schools were closed and you
               were forced to stay at home. We might
                have missed playing games; we might
                have missed our school studies. Some
                might have missed good health. Some
                might have lost their relatives. Some
                of their parents could have lost their
                jobs.
                         Today, the Lord is looking at
                you and is saying: “My son/daughter,
                 I will restore unto you all that you
                 have lost!”
                          This promise is yours! Have
                 faith in this. This year will be the
                 year you will be blessed!

I will restore to you. Joel 2:25 - What you have lost - Jesus Redeems
Kind David loved the Lord and lived true to His
     will yet there came a time when he lost everything in his life.
   His enemies named 'Amalekites' entered the city where David
   lived, stole everything from the place and took all wives and
children and imprisoned them.
         There came a time when King
David, the one who ruled the Israelites
for 40 years, lost everything and felt
distressed and isolated.
         The sadness that we face during
such times of loss, is unbearable! And
do you know what happened to King
David?
         “Then David and the people
who were with him lifted up their
voices and wept, until they had no
more power to weep.” (I Samuel
30:4) says the word of the Lord.
         They raised their voices and
wept saying, “We lost our wives,
children and everything that we earned
and are now here on the streets as
orphans”
         That moment when David
looked up to the Lord and prayed, the
Lord promised him saying, “...
without fail you will recover all.”
(I Samuel 30:8)
         Just as the Lord promised, “And
nothing of theirs was lacking, either small
or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything
which they had taken from them; David recovered all.”
(I Samuel 30:19) says the Holy Bible. Look at how wonderful
the Lord is!

The Lord who was concerned about King David and
made him a promise and fulfilled it, is looking at you today and
is giving you a promise too, “You will get back everything. All
that you have lost will come back to you.” The lord's word says,
“When King David lost everything, he felt distressed.”
(I Samuel 30:6)
                         That day in such a situation, everybody
                         around David accused him saying, “We
                         lost everything only because of you! You
                          are the reason why we have lost our wives
                          and children!” There arose a situation
                          where David was blamed and humiliated
                          by the people whom he loved!
                                   Today, in your own house, people
                          might look at you and blame you saying,
                           “It was only because of you that we have
                           a loss! It is only because you are praying
                           that we have lost everything and are
                           being insulted!”
                                    David was so distressed. He was
                           unable to give them an answer.
                                    But, to that same David, when the
                            Lord gave back everything, the people
                            who condemned and insulted him
                            earlier, praised him now. The Lord lifted
                            David high in front of those people!
                                     The Lord who lifted David high
                            that day will do the same for you today.
                            The lord will give you back everything
                            that you lost in the place where you live,
                             the place where you study, the village in
                             which you reside and in the place where
                    you do missionary work , and will help you
       stand up with dignity. So to get back all that you have
lost, what is it that you have to do?

Strengthen yourself in the Lord!

1           “But David strengthened himself in the Lord his
       God.” (I Samuel 30:6)

       Inquire to the Lord!

2           “So David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I pursue
       this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And He answered him,
       “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail
        recover all.” (I Samuel 30: 8)

        Do as the Lord says.

 3             David acted as the Lord said to him. The Lords said,
        “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without
        fail recover all.” Immediately, David went, fought and
recovered everything. (I Samuel 30: 9, 18, 19)
         Dearly beloved, will you also do as the Lord says? Pray for
  the country, the affected people, the church and missionaries.
         Pray for the ones around us who are sad and are shedding
       tears.
               Pray for the freedom of sinful souls and for their
          redemption. When you do all this, the Lord will give you
           all that you have lost in double.

                    Pray with faith!
        Praise be to the Lord who gave us the promise, “I will
restore...” what you have lost.
        No matter what loss I face, give me the grace to be
strengthened in you!
        In any situation, give me the grace to enquire with you, to be
guided by you and act.
        This year, help me to get back all that I have, help me to
praise you happily and be a blessing to others.
        Just like how you blessed Jacob doubly, bless me and lift me
higher!
        In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen! Amen!

        In recent times, there are approximately 60 and above full
time children missionaries in Tamil Nadu. But there are less full

through small and large organizations

    Let us pray for the young children missionaries in our
    country to get good health and strength and to get all
    their needs.
    Let us pray for many more young missionaries to rise
    up to meet the crores of young children in our country.
    Let us pray for the destruction of the evil spirits
