We Were Chosen Specially for Lord's Glory
“…God who set me apart from birth and called me by His grace – Gala 1:15 (NIV)”
Before leaving for India, I was praying to the Lord. Let your Will be carried out on us. My only request was – let me not take my son in a wheel chair to India. That will not glorify Jesus name. Bless him to get up and walk to the flight and get down from the flight on his own. Heal him completely. By keeping him still on the wheel chair, how can I say to my friends and relatives that Jesus had saved my son’s life and hence we have become Christians? Jesus answered my prayer through a prophecy by a visiting Indian Pastor from Pune Bible College – Dr Paulson who happened to learn about us and visited us in the Rehab. Centre. While praying for us, the Holy Spirit prompted him to tell that MY SON WILL BE HEALED. NOT HERE, BUT IN INDIA! If he is healed in USA, only a couple of hundreds will come to know of Lord’s miracle. But if it is in India, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL BE TOUCHED BY THE LORD AND SAVED BY KARTHI’S MIRACULOUS HEALING! I accepted and readily agreed if the delay in healing my son is for the glory of the Lord. Although I had agreed, heart of heart I had a question and doubt as to how millions of people are going to be touched by Karthi’s healing. May be about 100 families knew us well in our living area, friends and about 100 friends and equal number of relatives, altogether it was not going to be more than 300 to 400. I was thinking as to how this prophecy was going to work. I was ignorant of God’s plan and Psalmist sayings in Ps 50:15 “Call upon Him in the day of trouble, He will deliver you and you shall glorify Him”. I did not know that the Lord was going to use this slave for His glory!
