The news that broadcasted through almost all the News Channels, EARTHQUAKE! Shocked the world. A devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal on 25th April 2015 at 11:56 a.m. The time when most Christians were worshipping praying, worshipping, pleading His blessings, some requesting miracle healings for their near and dear ones. Some even exclaimed, “Where are you, God”?
When God is about to do something great, He starts with a difficulty. When He is about to do something truly magnificent, He starts with an impossibility. It’s the Christian’s recipe for pure and healthy livings. We sometime, remember the most hazardous destruction of Pompeii in the 79 A.D., empowering Lord’s wrath on one and every creatures there. The scenery of the aftermath Pompeii was inexplicable, unknown for many, many years. The cities remained buried and undiscovered for almost 1700 years until excavation began in 1748. Only during the year later, an ancient voice reached from the past to tell the world, of the gruesome disaster.
It was on 24th August, 79, Mt. Vesuvius blew its top, spreading tons of molten ash, pumice and sulphuric gas miles into the atmosphere. A ‘firestorm’ of poisonous vapours and molten debris engulfed the surrounding are suffocating the inhabitants of the neighbouring Roman resort cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Stabiae. Tons of falling debris filled the streets until nothing remained to be seen of the once thriving communities. Reviewing the excavated materials by the geologists, the people of that time thought the disaster as ‘Wrath of the Gods’. No one wishes to be born as one of the pompeiian. Nevertheless, some namesake Christians will indeed face nastiest penances for their wrongdoings.
Some seem to praise and worship the Lord of the Lords, for not letting them face Nepal-like disaster. It’s quite difficult to digest that Nepal’s recent earthquake was 16 times more powerful than Haiti’s 2010 disaster, when celebrated vocalists of the world took common platform and sang the heart-touching song – “WE ARE THE WORLD”, in order to raise financial aids for those numerous victims. Then, what are we waiting for? A Command? A Request? Or An Order? Let’s work together as the whole world is basically a common platform, financially, materially, spiritually help the victims of Nepal’s deadliest disaster. Manthan had been affording as much as it’s capacity and constant prayers. Well-wishers may also share their benign offerings through Manthan.
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need”.(Hebrew 4:16)
Manthan fraternities are always with the Nepal Believers at this time of great agony and pain. Heavenly Father is always standing by your side. Let the believers of Nepal act as a robust being of prayers.
