When God decided to send us into the world, He had great plans and visions install for each one of us.

He wanted us to dwell among our lost brothers and sisters, and to reveal and guide them back to God.

Most of us had in many ways failed God and His missions.

We came into this world, later got entangled in this world's affair and just as lost as any of them.

God continued with great patient and perseverance in search of someone whom He would entrust His flock of 'Lambs and sheep' .

For those whom God had found trustworthy, God would anoint them with the Holy Spirit of Missions.

They would be raised to the position of servants and instruments of God. To be co-shepherds with Jesus.

Therefore to continue the mission of Christ Jesus on earth.

This is a very challenging, difficult and impossible mission as far as human being is concerned.

We had been raised spiritually but physically we were lowered. In the eyes of the people in this world, this is the most foolish act of mankind.

Therefore they would continue to be condemned and persecuted in many ways.

But those who received the anointing of the Holy Spirit seek first the Kingdom of God and all its righteousness. Its beauty, splendor, power and glory. They are all unseen to those who had the eyes focusing on the world only.

They may search with great hope but they failed, because they cannot compromise with the ways of God. For no one can put His feet on two boats. By doing so he will surely sink.

Therefore God intended that after conversion in baptism, we lived a new life. A life of detachment from the material, power, position, relationship, etc of this world. We are to cling on to God to provide all our needs. For God knew exactly and at the right time, what to give and when to give. If we only depend on our physical and earthly ability of wisdom, knowledge and understanding to direct our lives, we are going no way, but to our eminent spiritual and eternal death.

The physical does not know what the spiritual needed but in contrary the spiritual knew both perfectly well.

The spiritual seeks God, fixed its eyes on God, His plans, visions and His will.

But still God depended on our freewill to make decision for our souls.

But Children of God in exile lived in hunger and thirst for perfect vision of God and His glory.

This is a prayer that I received on 30^th August, 2001, as a consolation for my soul and it is also for all earthly pilgrims in exile on earth.

Almighty and Eternal God,

Thank You for all the love and care you had showered on us.

We longed to be with You every moment of our lives. As we are still in exile in this world, help us to live as You intended us to live.

Bless our work, play, leisure and our rest.

In every situation in our lives, help us to be alert to every unexpected tasks, incidents and situations.

Help us to do our work with full concentration.

Pray, Almighty God that our work may be fruitful.

Do not let us waste our time, given by You, in useless thoughts and actions.

Help us to fully utilize our limited time on earth doing what pleases You always.

May we do our work with the Spirit of Christ, as He had been a carpenter before, until the moment You would call us fully to serve You in Your ministry.

For this transition period, let it be a training for us to adopt to every environment, situation and different types of people in our lives, yet let Your 'Light' had all the ability to continue to shine in the darkness of the world.

Give us the ability to differentiate between what comes from You and what does not.

Help us to concentrate our strength, energy and heart to serving You and one another.

Help us to be able to return to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God (God's Will, will of the flesh, world and the devil)

Do not let us be entangled and trapped in situation or time of which we are not able to set ourselves free.

From this day forth, help us to have a completely different outlook in life.

To see the world through Your eyes as from your childhood to your death (Human Jesus).

To be Your 'Hands' and 'Feet' to walk Christ's path and to do His Will, not ours.

All this, We offered up through the powerful name of Jesus Christ. The victorious name that God the Father had given Him as He conquered all, especially death.

Where all beings on earth, heaven and world below, had to bow and worship Jesus' Name.

Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ. May Your Name and life be powerfully enthroned in our hearts for all eternity. Amen.
