Inner Healing - My Potter's hands

As I gaze into your Holiness....... As I look into your loveliness..........


As I continue gazing into the light that surrounds my Lord...... I sense the peace that comes from knowing him....... My heart feels full of his light...... and his light increases.......... love emerges.............. I feel full of his presence.........I bask in his presence...... there is nothing more relishing than being with my Jesus..........Everytime I spend time with My Lord........I savour his presence more and more.....the joy of being with My Lord increases the zest in me.........I thank you Lord for being with me and helping me to look with your eyes into those dark recesses of my being..... thank you for helping me to dissolve my fears..... my anger...... my hurt.......my negative state of mind........all my wrong beliefs.................... I feel confident to now renew my mind with your truths........the knowledge of your kingdom........ and your will helps me to walk further into areas of my life which need the showers of your presence............


Gazing into the eyes of my Saviour and holding his hands I now walk in his light to the area of my life when I am about to move from my mother's womb into the world.........

Maybe I was premature child/or my mother's body was not able to contain me and opened up...or I was underweight or a big baby...........maybe I felt so so safe..........that I didnt want to leave my mother's body....... or maybe my mother did not experience any pain and had to be given medicine for inducing labour.......or my mother's fear of childbirth tightened her cervix and hence I was trapped...... Maybe I was sucked out through a vaccum.......or I passed urine/ feces in the womb in fear.........or my mother went through a prolonged labour.......maybe she was tired........or all alone and my father could not be there with her........or maybe there was a threat to her life........ or the doctors had to do a c-section to help deliver me........ or I was in a breech position........perhaps the doctors who handled me were not gentle........ the sudden brightness in the room could have hurt my eyes...and shocked me.....or there was too much noise....maybe I did not cry immediately and so was handled harshly .........maybe my mother was too tired........ or  no one was around to feed me when I was hungry...... 
All these feelings of abandonment, rejection that have been stored up inside of me, I now choose to release and set myself free........ I see with the eyes of faith My Lord- The Potter of my life standing with me all the while and holding me in his arms....... Take me Lord, mold me Lord, use me Lord, fill me Lord..... I give  my life into my Potter's hand.......

Inner Healing:- My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,


May showers and showers of love and peace and joy descend upon you........

We have read about the creation of the world in Genesis, the last weekend was on ours.....
We would continue to pray for the time we spent in the sacred place of our creation this weekend as well.
The beautiful time we were breathed and watched over by the Lord himself into our mother's womb.
Once again there is a script as a guide, which can be changed or added according to what is impressed on your heart by the Holy Spirit.
Praying for another person would mean substituting the I for someone else's name.

Once again, I encourage you to persevere in prayer all throughout the week and the weekend. If there is a specific area you would like us to pray as a team, kindly get back to us. We will include it in as well.

Those keeping the vigil are-
Sybil
Tecy
Tara
Geogy
Jeevan
Divina
Sylvester
Suja
Elizabeth
Sharon
Shirley

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.                                     He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed. Then they were glad that the waters were quiet and he brought them to their desired haven. 

May you have a spirit filled healing.

Night Vigil:- Inner Healing for Self - womb

Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for you are my praise.

I grow silent, knowing that the Lord is going to be in my midst. Today once again I want to hold your hand Lord and go to that stage when I am still being Knit in my mother's womb. I walk with his Staff and Rod holding it aloft to clear the darkness of my mind. I walk knowing without turning around that the Spirit of the Lord envelops me. I walk in the purity of his light and Love...... I walk towards my experience in my womb...... I walk to see me sitting inside the sacred place of my creation- My mother's womb. I walk in the guidance of his presence knowing that I am going to set myself free from all that was unknowingly transferred to me by my mother.

My mother was probably not prepared to have a child......... or she felt very sick after conceiving me..... or she may have had fears about her pregnancy........ or the doctors said she was going to have a high risk pregnancy/ complications......... or she may have already had my brother/sister and wanted a boy/girl........
She may have had many fears since this was her first pregnancy.... or she may have miscarried/aborted earlier...... or the doctors may have said its going to be a difficult pregnancy....and suggested termination of the pregnancy..... or she may have attempted to abort me...... or she was anxious constantly about  how she was going to taking care of me....... maybe my father lost his job....... or was into gambling.......and my mother had to work to bear the financial burden of the house.........Maybe my father was working long shifts and my mother was alone at home........  Maybe there was a death in the family.....and my mother was numb with shock......Maybe there were constant fights between my parents....and my mother wanted to end her life.......Maybe my father was  abusive (physical, emotional, verbal).....and had violent outbursts of anger... or he was very dominating....... or was chasing drugs/ alcohol....... Maybe there was not much food for my mother to eat...... or she was not given food......... or she felt like eating very spicy food............ Maybe she was not strong physically to carry me full term and needed bed rest and constant medical attention........ All of these emotions of fears, worries, concerns, frustrations, anguish......... were felt by me even though I was still very very small.......

Inner healing - For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
May the Good Lord shower his peace and blessings on all  in abundance!!!!!
After the wonderful vigil that we had last weekend, it was felt that we now need to explore the most important area of our life which we often have very little or no memories about. 
The time we were breathed into our mother's womb.... the moment of our conception........

There is a script for those who were confused or not clear on how to go about with the process. You could refer to that script or make up your own. The script is titled for self, all you have to do is substitute I for someone else's name to pray for a healing for the other person. 


When I was asked why do we need to pray for another person, well the LORD himself in John 15:17 commands us to love one another and the greatest gift or love we can give another person whom we do not know or have never met is the gift of prayer especially of healing. 


James 5: 16 
Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you maybe healed. The Prayer of a Righteous person has great power as it is working. 
Once again, continue persevering in prayer even after the weekend is over. If while praying for someone the Holy Ghost touches you/ reveals anything to you, kindly share it as your feedback.

Inner Healing - Prayer for self

As I still the wheels of my thoughts, I now put all my attention on spending this time with the Lord. This time with the Lord is very important because I am going to open myself up to him like I have never done with any body in my life.
I know my Lord knows everything and has been knocking on the door all the time. I now choose to open the door and let him enter my heart, mind and soul. Every part of me welcomes him............
He enters with his light. I can feel...... as though I am being flooded with light.............

I sing "Pour out your Spirit, Pour out your Spirit on me. Pour out your spirit, Pour out your spirit on me. Spirit move in your temple...... Spirit move in my life.......Spirit move..... I am calling.. Spirit heal........I am asking. Spirit fill me with your love........ I need you....... Pour out your healing, Pour out your healing. Pour out your healing on me. I am pleading......


I can feel you all around me Lord.... I can smell your fragrance..... the sweet fragrance of the Lilies of the valley with the morning dew on them fills me.........

I will now walk with you Lord, I will hold onto your rod and staff for comfort.
 I now walk with the lord as he leads me to those areas of my life that need his soothing touch. I begin my journey as I feel the power of his love sending me into a house.......... of my earthly parents.
My beginnings on this earth.....

Watch and Pray!


"Watch and Pray" International Night Vigil
All prayer warriors for Agape come together this night to watch and pray.

I have often reflected on how the apostles found it difficult to watch and pray at Gethsemane.

Matt26:40-41
Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. "Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?" he asked Peter. "Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak."

Note that the Lord tells them to watch and pray for themselves that they may not fall into temptation. He does not tell them 'pray for me, I suffer'. Though He loved all His apostles, He had taken the ones closest to Him -Peter - chosen to lead the flock, James-his own cousin and John- the Beloved apostle. Even these failed to support Him in prayer when He needed comfort the most.
I wonder if it would have been the same if the apostles had a clue as to what was in store for them. To witness the passion and death of their Master, to face the persecution for being His followers, even the death that each of them had to face?

Matt26:38
Then he said to them, "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me."

Any human that experiences sorrow so deep and intense cannot sleep. Can you remember the times that you were so overwhelmed with sorrow that you could not sleep?

Do you think it would have been different if they could only understand the sorrow in His heart? The apostle John I think would have lasted longer than the others. He passionately loved the Lord. Thus we have a detailed account of the Lord's agony in John 17. But he too succumbed to the weakness of the flesh.
Do share your thoughts and reflections.
