Dearly Beloved in Christ,
Greetings to you in Jesus’ name.
We wish you all a happy and blessed New Year. May the Lord lead you in the centre of His will.
Our gracious Lord God has granted us one more year: 2010. Though there would be trials, problems, hardships, difficulties, sicknesses, persecutions, harassment, torture, blame, allegations, thorns, pain etc, our Lord Jesus Christ who is the good shepherd will be walking before us and we are just following Him. Therefore we need not worry at all. All our burdens are upon Him. He will lead us till we reach our Home.
When our Father God is taking care of every thing we need, we have a great responsibility upon us.
“Your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him” Mat 6:8.
Jesus Christ says “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work” John 4:34.
WHAT IS HIS WORK ?
“Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest” John 4:35
When the wheat or paddy is fully ripe for harvest, it is in golden colour for a week or so but if the harvesting is delayed, gradually the colour turns to white. If the harvesting is delayed further the rice or wheat grains will start falling to the ground and it would be impossible to collect it from the mud. Quoting this example Jesus Christ tells us that the Souls are ready for the harvest to the Kingdom of God. It is already late!
“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; but I found no one” Ezek. 22:30
Beloved in Christ! You may not be in a position to go and preach or visit houses to witness the Lord Jesus Christ but you can stand in the gap before the Lord on behalf of the land. You may be old, or house wife, or bedridden or physically handicapped but you can stand in the gap and intercede for the land.
“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore hear a word from My mouth, and give them warning from Me: When I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand” Ezek. 3: 17-19.
Our loving Father God has appointed you as the watchman of your country, your people, your relatives, your friends, your neighbours, your classmates, your business partner, your assistant, your director, your boss, your house servant, your husband, your wife, your children, your parents, your in-laws.
Apostle Paul says “I tell the truth, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit, that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according the flesh” Rom 9: 1-3.
Look at the heart of Apostle Paul. He writes to the Saints of Rome. How much Paul is concerned about his countrymen and own people. Dear Child of God! Are you concerned about the salvation of your own people, own country men. When you are in a shopping mall, or traveling by train, traveling by plane or bus you see thousands and thousands of your own country men marching to hell fire. Satanic forces have drugged them with the pleasures of this world and dragging them to lake of fire. Look at the big stadiums where people gather in millions. When all of them are being dragged to hell fire; HOW CAN WE SIMPLY ENJOY OUR FAMILY LIFE ?, OR OUR SECURED LIFE ?.
Are we not very late in reaching them with the gospel of Salvation ?
This is the work of the Father
Saints! Let us complete the work entrusted to us. This is our food. This is our great responsibility. May the Lord grant you enough grace to complete the work entrusted to us through the power of the Holy Spirit during this year 2010.
Let us wait in His presence and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit and become witnesses. Act 1:8. Let us be clothed with the power from High. Luke 24:49
Let us pull down every strongholds of Satan with the power of the Holy Spirit. 2Cor 10:3,4.

This is the official web site of the Maranatha Ministries International,. Maranatha Ministries International is an umbrella Organization, working towards the perfection of the Body of Christ all over the world. We are known in India as the North Western Region of the Indian Pentecostal Church of God. Our International headquarters is based in Jammu Tawi, in the state of Jammu & Kashmir, India.
Pastor (Capt.) A.M. Samuel is the founder president. This ministry had its humble origin in the early 1970's in a small village called garhi, which is close to the town of Udhampur, in the Jammu and Kashmir state, and now by the grace of God it has spread to different parts of the globe.
“World Evangelism is every Christian’s ministry. The purpose of being filled with the Holy Ghost is not only to speak in tongues, but to give proof of the resurrection – to boldly witness Christ to the unbelievers.”
When we look at the harvest, which is truly very great, we find that the harvesters are few, and the dark clouds are looming over it to destroy it. Our desire is to encourage the saints to set out into the fields blazing new trails, under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. One should not be satisfied with one’s own spiritual growth, but to remember his life’s assignment of winning souls. In these days the comfortable religion, which does not demand aggressive soul winning has super seeded the zeal and passion of the early Church, which drove them off to the busy crossroads, and market places of humanity. Many want the sinners to first come inside the church building and then planning to evangelize them. Just like a farmer wanting to harvest his crop sitting in his dinning room or like a foolish fisherman fishing in his bathtub.
In a time when the coming of our Lord is very near, and we can see a profusion of wrong teachings, we welcome you to come in and check for yourself what the Word of God teaches.
Do any of these questions bother you???
* What is spiritual Battle?
* Who is the Bride of Christ?
* Why has Christ not come till now?
* Is taking medicine a sin?
* Is the doctrine of separation relevant any more?
* Is the slaying of the spirit from heaven or hell?
* How many dimensions does faith have?
* Is suffering a curse?
* Is God the author of suffering?
* What is Biblical prosperity?
* What is New Testament tithing?
* Who is a Disciple of Christ?
* Who is Another Jesus, another Spirit, another Gospel?
* How does God prepares His chosen vessels?
* Is Lucifer and Satan the same personality?
* Why did God create Satan?
* Does the Middle East crises has anything to do with the Bible?
* Should women cover their heads?
* Should we wear ornaments?
* Is election in the Body of Christ scriptural? Are these your questions, do you have any other, just log in, this site is updated regularly. Let us search the scriptures together and find the answers.
Visit our links in Biblical teachings and study the Word of God. It is our sincere desire through this site to share with the Body of Christ, which is spread all over the world, the Word of God. So that the Church militant may rise up once again as a mighty army and pull down the strong holds of the enemy and lift the banner of Jesus Christ. When the clouds of persecution are gathering it is not the time for the disciples of Jesus Christ to sit and just cry but to stand up and roar. It is high time for every militant Christian to throw away his carnal weapons and be well armed with the spiritual weapons and challenge the enemy. The battle is of the Lord.
With prayers, we request you to enter this site and experience the true joy of the Christian life. You will not be the same once you enter.
May God bless you.
Maranatha
