Theme for the month“God is the True Source of My Increase”

The Holy Spirit; Your Helper

The partnership letter for December 2011

A Merry Christmas to all my Partners and Spiritual Sons and Daughters! Greetings to you in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I thank God for you who are Partners in our Ministry. Every day we are advancing the Kingdom of God. Pastor Zubeda and I want to wish you and your family all the best during this Christmas Season.

During this time, everyone is in the mood of celebration. This is good as the Lord caused us to accomplish many things this year. Indeed this year was a blessed and fruitful year. There were many challenges but also many victories throughout the year. As you give and receive gifts this Christmas season, Remember how good God has been to you and consider this portion of scripture.

John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

So prepare a gift of thanksgiving and sow your seed to the Church as a present to the Lord Jesus Christ. Having a grateful and merry heart, express it in your practical terms. Be excited to see His Church advance. As you do this, you are also sowing seed for next year’s harvest.

This month I want to speak to you about “The Holy Spirit; Your Helper”

Our reading is from *John 14:16 (AMP), “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;”*

The Holy Spirit wants you to know that He is your Helper. Therefore, you don’t have to face any difficult situation alone. Three Hebrew boys; Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were thrown into the fiery furnace, but they were unhurt because they weren’t alone. Amidst their trouble was the fourth man, their Helper and He is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is your Spiritual Helper and He can do much more than your mind can fathom.

*Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” He can help you out of any situation. He’s your Standby. He’s always there for you at any time of the day; for He neither slumbers nor sleeps. Psalms 121:4, “Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.”*

Though the fire raged, the fire had no power over the bodies of the three Hebrew boys, *“…nor was a single strand of hair of their heads singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.” Daniel 3:27. I want you to realize that the Holy Ghost wasn’t just standing like a monument; rather, He was already working ever before the boys were thrown into the fiery furnace

If you’re going through fire right now; it may be in your finances, body, academics, marriage or business, I want you to know God has big plans for you and He’s already working on it. He has given you the Holy Ghost as your Helper. Instead of seeking man’s help, turn your attention to Him and trust Him for He never fails.

He is saying to you today, “*When thou passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.” Isaiah 43:2. Trust Him and He will bring you out of trouble

You are blessed and favoured of the Lord. The Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is upon you. I declare that during this time you will enjoy great favour.

I see you walking in true prosperity from today. I declare that everything about you flourishes and that you are a blessing to the whole world in the Name of Jesus Christ.

As you sow your tithe, offerings and pledges this month, I declare God’s favour on your life. I pray that every desire in your heart come to pass this Festive Season. Things will not only be added to you but multiplied to you as well.

Pastor Zubeda and I pray for you daily and rejoice to see the blessings of God on your life. I see you growing in your commitment to God’s house. I see you loyal and steadfast in Jesus name. May God continue to richly bless you and your family.

Merry Christmas!

We Love You very Much,Dr Roshan and Pastor Zubeda Sing
