Last Monday we were at one our friends house for a prayer meeting. When we arrive their my friend and his son, who recently came down from Australia welcomed us.As soon as I got down my eyes caught by the WORDS printed on the T-Shirt what the young man was wearing.It says "I AM WITH THE BIG GUY" .
Anyway we walked in and had great time of worship and I got the opportunity to preach.I preached about the storm calmed by our Lord.After I preached I asked have any of you faced storms.Everyone said yes and there was a bog "yes" from that young man,my friends son.He came down because of a little storm,I understood. And I was led by the spirit to explain them two main reasons for storms in our lives and nothing to kill us as He has given His life to save us. After the meeting we were invited for Dinner with them.
I sat with some little ones and I was them for a while and later went to sit with my friend and his son on their table.
Then this wonderful young man started to ask questions and he was sharing that when he was young he felt that there is something greater than the religion practice by his parents and he just told to the sky,If there is such a thing please reveal to me.He felt that all the religious works done by his parents were meaning less and ones he had mentioned that to his parents and later decided t keep quit because he was scared that they may ask him to leave the house because of this unwanted issues.So later he moved to Australia.
When he was in Australia, his family got saved and they were praying for him and told him that they have accepted Jesus and they were born again.And when we were eating his father was suggesting him to pray and ask from God,specially His help for the exam what he is going to take(That was the storm which took this man to Sri Lanka this time,because he didn't get the enough marks for his PR).This wonderful man was saying to his father" I cant ask God to bless me, because I haven't done any good for him,but He has blessed me so much...so I cant ask more and I don't know how to reach to God correctly because I am a sinner and He is not......".I couldn't wait and I jumped up and asked him "Son,have you not invited Jesus in to your life?".He said "No"(Praise the Lord !)
Then I shared the gospel and asked him to close his eyes and guided him with sinners prayer.After the prayer the young man said "Amen" with me and opened his eyes.He was like shocked and told us about an amazing vision he saw when we were doing the sinners prayer...He told us" I saw the soldiers were taking Jesus on the streets.He was carrying the cross. And there were wounds all over His body. Blood on the face. And He looked at me.I was there wearing a roman helmet.I thought no one could identify me. But He looked at me.I was trying to hide,but Jesus looked at me"
I couldn't hide my tears and that moment was amazing.I felt the presence of the Lord right there.
Later found out though this young man was praying to God had not repent and invite Jesus in to his life.
So we came to a conclusion before we depart...."That could be the only reason, why? God brought him here this time to Sri Lanka and he came down because he didnt get enough marks on the test for his PR"....
Yes ,His ways are perfect and He can turn any bad in to good.....
May be this is the reason for your problem on what you are worrying about ,Smile.....!
He is God!

The modern day Zacchaeus...
I and Dhammi conduct bible studies for few small groups.This evening we had meeting at one of our friends house. We usually have her mother,son and her daughter for the study. This was the miracle took place in this study time.
We went there to our friends house for the study.Sri Lankans love to feed their visitors.So we had the "MUST" tea and some snacks and started the study.
As soon as we started the study class a short person who worked in the house owners paddy fields, started to hang around the place where the meeting was.
Then our friend asked my permission for invite that person to the bible study class.Usually Sri Lankans don't treat their workers in this way.Specially in Kandy. I was little bit amazed but happy about the change of our friends after they gave their lives to Jesus.
We spent some time in reminding our previous lessons and later we start to do the today's lesson. It was about Zacchaeus. The short ,wealthy sinner who gave is heart to Jesus and changed his life.
I cant believe that my God loved this two Zacchaeus that much. The story for me to share the gospel with modern day Zacchaeus and he gave his heart to the Lord.Praise God !
I wonder how this modern day Zacchaeus's heart beats and what a joy he have !
Jesus you are awesome!!!!!!
Please pray for him that he may grow in the word........!

Don't Give up.....
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4
"Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.".
Apostle wrote these things to the Church in Thesssalonica.That was a very young church. And in the minds of new Christians was full of questions as it is same in this age. And the temptations and the hindrances for there faith is much available. With no time they can be mislead. So the Apostle was writing to encourage them and warn them about the coming of the Lord. He is going to come to judge. And He is going to come like a thief in the night .SUDDENLY !
My dear friends,family when I read this scripture my eyes stopped at the word SUDDENLY.
Some times you may fighting with a sickness. Sometimes you may fighting with a family problem. Or some times you may fighting with some kind of a challenge or it can be a temptation.And you really felt that you are going through the drops of your patience and hope.You may wanting to give up.You may wanting to quit.
But this morning the Holy Spirit wanted me to convey this to you.His time will come in a SUDDEN. The answers for your prayers will come like a thief in the night. He is going to send you the blessings in a hour no body knows. He is God and His ways are different and higher than our ways and thoughts. He know the correct time.
So don't give up. Keep your prayers and keep pushing. The Lord will open the door in the correct time.
I and my wife Dhammi didn't have children ,even in the fifth year after our marriage. Our relatives starts to talk about this. Even some people at the church. We were praying but didn't see the answer.We wanted to give up and I was trying to convey my idea about adopting a child.But we kept praying.His answer and the blessing came to us SUDDENLY. One day our family doctor announced us that Dhammi is pregnant. And God gave us a pretty daughter and now she is 3 years old.If you see Michelle,my love you will praise God for her for sure.
My friend you also can have miracle...!
Don't give up !
He will come SUDDENLY !
Be ready for a miracle and Be ready to meet Him !

Jesus is building His church.....
Recently we started a special miracle service on every 3rd Sunday evening.We had our latest miracle service on last Sunday the 17th. I was amazed to see that we have grown up to 80 participants.We started Miracle House with three.The Lord has blessed us to be 80 within very short time of period.Within last month there were more that 10 people gave their hearts to Jesus through our ministry.My dearest friends and family thank you very much for all the support and prayers.
We need your continuous as our over heads has gone up.The electricity bill doubled recently after the increase done by the government and after we A/C our meeting place. Though it is expensive now every body is worshiping God in a very pleasant environment.
Please uphold us in your continues prayers so that we can reach 100.In Sri Lanka 310 people dies everyday and only less than 0.9% Christians we have.The majority is not getting a chance to be with Him forever...

I had a vision this morning....
We all the pastors gather on Thursday morning for our weekly fast and prayer time at MHC. This morning my self Pastors George and Chami ,started the meeting.Just before our praise and worship time ends I started to see a vision. Here what I saw..
I saw a huge man with white,shining robes stretching his hands and sitting in front of our meeting place.He was more than 10 mtrs in height.
Then He became a roman soldier. He was with the helmet, the breast plate,the belt,the sword and the iron boot.He started marching forward from our building and when he reached near the gate,he became two. One soldier turned right and went on the main road and the other turned to left and marched forward on the main road.
Then I saw a soldier with same uniform patrolling around our fens. Then I saw that soldier crossed with another soldier and later so many were patrolling around our premises.
Then I inquired the situation with the soldiers who marched along the main road. Then I found a battalion of around 1000 soldiers on the left side and another battalion of the same size on the right.They were ready to march.
Then I saw I was preaching on the pulpit.The house was full and on every seat there were people. Not ordinary but different.They were like wearing evil face ,black and white masks.I say to them "I rebuke you and cast you out in Jesus name". Then the crowed became humans.
Then I saw the devil is walking among the people looking for a prey.
I asked God what was it all about ?
Holy Spirit convinced me,

Holy Spirit convinced me,
- That in the future this church is going to be a garrison where the soldiers of gospel are trained.(As already prophecised by many servants of the Lord)
- There will be many come to this church but now they are in the world and under the bondage of the evil one.
- It is our responsibility bring them up and and strengthen them.
It reminds me our vision...
Meet,Heal and Challenge ,which comes from the three first letters of our name.!
We here at the Miracle House Church,,,
love to MEET people and HEAL them with our prayers and strengthen them in the word of God and CHALLENGE them to serve Him....
We appreciate your continues support and prayer !

Sure there was a celebration....
We usually held our communion service on the 1st Sunday of every-month.So we had it on this morning.My wife Dhammi lead the worship and it was a great time of praise and worship.After the message I got on the stage to conduct the communion service.After a little explanation,two pastors served the communion.When that was going on I saw two young girls we looking around and they didnt take part .So I asked them that they know and have accepted Jesus as their savior.They said no.I asked them ,Do you want to give your lives to Jesus.They answered ,Yes.I took them forward and lead them to the Lord.They accepted Jesus as their personnel savior after repent for their sins.Praise God ! .He is building His kingdom and these two young lives started their journey with Him today.
The best of the story is this.After the service I asked one of the pastors to take the filled visitors information card of that girls.There I found out one of the girls are from the village where I grew.We have been praying for last 2 months,to have an opening to plant church their.Praise God!
Sure there was a celebration in heaven.....
