My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Job 22:27, “You will pray to Him, and He will hear you.”
My Dear children, today we shall ponder about our prayer life, in the initial stage of receiving Jesus as your personal saviour you would have spent half an hour or at least one hour in prayer, but now maybe your prayer life has become limited to instant prayer or for ten seconds only, you must have changed your attitude to prayer due to the pressure of other work but you must understand that the more you pray, you will be victorious both in the worldly life and in your spiritual life. Prayer changes the situation, and also it brings victory, therefore, I urge everyone who reads this message to begin to pray systematically at a particular time, place and improve the quality of prayer in such a manner so as to move the heart of the Lord and receive an answer to your prayers.
The Bible says, ‘His grace is new every morning’, stand in the presence of the Lord, as a family everyday and receive blessings from His hands. In case you do not do family prayer please begin today. Pray in the morning and night with your family, praying together will build your family with much love, understanding and improve your relationship. Petty quarrels that often creep up in the family can be cancelled because of family prayer. At prayer time, read the Bible, sing and praise the Lord and if possible, you can share what you have read from the Bible and end by prayer and thanksgiving. God will be so pleased, with you and your family and you will experience heaven on earth, surely your home will be a blessing.
The Word of God says, “You will pray to Him and He will hear you”, the Lord’s ears are not closed to hear your cry or answer your prayers. Some might say, Brother, I asked the Lord, but I did not receive an answer to my prayers? Then what must you do? Why didn’t God answer your prayers? this must be your doubt about God. The Bible clearly says, that your sins have been a hindrance between God and you. You should ask God to show you what is wrong with you or to tell you what is lacking in you, surely God will reveal the mistake in your life and when He reveals, immediately you should reconcile with God, ask for His forgiveness and give up all your sinful habits, your evil practice, and live a life that is pleasing unto God. Then God will answer your prayers. If you follow the advice which the Lord is giving you as you read this message, then I can assure you that by the end of this year, you will be increased a thousandfold. You will increase spiritually, materially and be blessed in your family, at your workplace or business, and also in your ministry. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord, I pray that a special spirit of prayer is poured upon all those who are reading this message. When they are stuck without words to pray, Lord please help them to pray through the support of the Holy Spirit. Forgive all their iniquities, that are hindering them from receiving an answer to their prayers. Be merciful to them, may they have the desires of their heart. Remove all the obstacles that stand in their way to progress. Let them enjoy many auspicious events in their families.
In Jesus Name We pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Genesis 12:3, “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
God says, “All people on the earth shall be blessed by you”. This means that you are going to be a blessing to others around you, your family, your street, and your neighbourhood will be blessed through you.
Some of you are saying, “Brother I have not been blessed until today, then how can I be a blessing to others?”
If the Lord has promised to bless the people through you then He will surely fulfil His promise because He is a God of Promise. Firstly, God will bless you and He will exalt you to such a height, then He will make you be a blessing to others. By blessing you, a branch or river will go forth out of you and spread all around you to bless others.
At the beginning of the verse, God has said, that He will bless all those who bless you, then in the same verse, the Lord has also said, that He is going to bless people through you. What a great assurance this is? Many would have kept you aside, in your family, they might have told you that you are good for nothing and you are of no use in the family. My dear children of God, all their words are going to be in vain. The words of the Lord will surely come to pass, you are going to be a blessing to all of them who rejected you, who spurned you and who hated you for no reason..
The Lord chose Joseph among all his siblings as he was a kind-hearted, generous person and a man of excellent spirit. The Lord blessed Joseph and made him be a blessing to his siblings though they were against him and also, he was a blessing to entire Egypt and other surrounding nations during the time of famine, through Joseph, the Lord fed them, till the end. Whoever is reading this message and if you have the quality of Joseph then God will surely bless you and cause you to be an overflowing cup, so that you may be a blessing to others through various channels. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord, you have said that my children would be a blessing to others. We thank You for the assurance that You have given to us today. Lord, please bless them, and expand the borders of their territory. Give your children an overflowing blessing and let this overflowing blessing reach their relatives, friends, neighbours, poor and needy people, orphans, downtrodden, old aged people and those forsaken. We thank you for the overflowing blessing that you have granted to them. Let the people around them see that they are blessed. For those who say that they have not been blessed, until this day, I pray that they will be a blessing to the entire land, in order that other nations may see it.
In Jesus Name We pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of “Exodus 14;14, “ Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
My Dear Children of God, the Lord will fight for you when you go through troubles or trials or when you are targeted by your own people who come against you, it may be due to a land dispute, distribution of shares among your siblings in the family, or any other matter. God will fight for you, provided you be honest and faithful to him and you need only to be still. All these days you have fought many battles in your lives by your own strength and you had never considered that God would fight for you. As a result, you have failed miserably and you might have lost many good things in life and your battle was in vain. You did not win the battle but lost the little peace that you had, Isn’t it so? therefore, you are going to make a decision today, that you are not going to fight with anyone or argue with anyone that leads to battle. Whatever troubles you face in the future, you will just transfer them to the Lord and you will remain quiet. For the Lord has said, “I will fight for you. I will do everything for you. You be still and know that I am God.” The Lord is advising you, as to how you need to face challenges through His life-giving word of God. All you need to do is to take and apply it in your life when you face storms or battles in your life. Just tell the Lord about your problems, He will fight for you. The Bible says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
This is what God expects you to do when you are confronted with your enemies. The problem may be with regard to your family life, workplace, in your ministry, or whatever it may be. The Lord says, that those who come against you in one way will flee away through seven directions. You might have had a problem even today, and you did not know how to overcome it and you think that there is no other way but to fight it out. Let us give up on revenge and we have only one way and that is the Lord. The Israelites had to cross the Red Sea that was before them and behind them was the Egyptian army. They did not know what to do, but they had to fight the battle and then cross the sea, that was before them. In that terrible situation, Moses told them, “You need not be afraid; Indeed, my Lord is with me, He will guide me. The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” And so, the Lord began to fight for His people. The Lord did not send any angel to fight and kill them, but the Lord just looked at the army and the wheels in the chariot dismantled and rolled away and so the captain and the men in the army were all drowned into the sea.
They did not know what was happening. The horses were refusing to move forward. The chariots loosened themselves, and hence all the men got drowned in the sea and died. Then the Egyptians feared and said, the God of Israel is fighting for his people, the God whom they worship is powerful. God is fighting for them so let us run away from them. Although they ran back, the Lord did not let them go so easily. He covered the sea and caused them to be drowned in the sea. This is a historical event that took place in the history of Israel. God fought for them as He had promised in His word. In the same way, they who fight with you will see the power of God descend upon you, and your enemies will escape in all directions. They will recognize that your God is mightier than them and you will surely win over the battle. They will perish but you shall stand erect.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord, many children who battled with their foes, by their own strength have become exhausted, you will fight for them as you have promised in your word. Let them not lose, but win the battle set before them. May your children tell you of their difficulties and they do not fight alone by themselves, for all their effort will be vain. I pray that all the children of God will not be scared of their enemies but You give them the needed strength and help them to face the battle through the strength of the Lord. Let all the enemies who come against them run away in fear of You. Let all the children of God live in peace and harmony.
Jesus Name We pray.
Amen.
I greet and bless you in the name of our Creator, Maker, and ever unforgettable Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Isaiah 44:26, Who confirms the word of His servant, And performs the counsel, of His Messengers. Who says, to Jerusalem, “You shall be inhabited.” To the cities of Judah, “You shall be built.” And I will raise up her waste places.”
From the above context we read that God confirms His word to His servant, either a Pastor, or An Evangelist, or an Elder of a Church. And God performs the counsel of His messengers. Thus we see that God speaks to His people, through His ministers who are ambassadors for Christ. Most of you are reading this message with a hope of receiving the blessing of God. The Bible says, “It pleased the Lord to Bless Israel.”But the enemy namely the king of Moab appointed Balaam the Messenger to come and curse the people of Israel. God did not allow Balaam to curse but instead he blessed the people of Israel. God would put in the very words into his mouth, for him to speak, over the people of Israel that He wanted to convey to His Children. And when the messengers of God spoke those words, God makes it to pass. For He is a wonder working God. He does wonders beyond number.
God is seen in our midst, as a God, who fulfils all things that He has spoken. Whether the words were spoken by God, or whether it was His prophesy, so long it may not have been fulfilled in your life. But in the future it will surely come to pass. God says, the words spoken by the ministers are not the words of the ministers, but they are words from God, directly spoken through the servant of God. God expresses His ownership of His servants, who minister unto Him. God says, “The words that I speak through My servant will be fulfilled in its time. God also gives counselling through His servant for the welfare of you and your family. God will fulfil their counselling and make you joyful. My sincere advice is that you must never think cheap or underestimate your pastors who come to your house to pray for you or give counselling to you. Whatever they do will be for your good. The Pastors, Preachers, Ambassadors, Evangelists, are chosen by God to shepherd His sheep. Or the sheep might get lost without correct direction or counselling. God says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”
Therefore never think very low about them. Never think that these servants of God come into your house for their personal benefit. But always think that God is sending them to your houses to bless you and your family. They usually visit your house to solve your problems. Or to pray for you or to give you good counselling in order that peace reigns within your family between you and your wife or between you and your children. For God is always mindful of you. Consider those servants of God who come into your homes as if JESUS came into your home. You should have that sort of feeling and receive them with great reverence and fear. Then God who tests the hearts and mind, will bless you abundantly. You do your part, God will do His part. It is a great blessing to you and your family when the feet of such Holy men step into your homes. Be free to share your problems with them they will be able to counsel you correctly in those areas which are difficult for you to handle. Many think Pastors come regularly on the 1st of every month for collection. No never. No pastors depend upon your contribution for their survival. They are God’s ambassadors, so they will never lack any good thing. Moreover they learn to be content with what God has blessed them with. They are Rich in the Lord and His Word. God will provide them with Manna which He has in store for them.
I would like to tell you of how the Lord provided for His special people the Levites. Israel as such were twelve tribes. Of which Levi was chosen to serve God in His temple.. When God asked Joshua to distribute the portion of land property, both Joshua, and Caleb distributed correctly as the Lord had commanded to the eleven tribes. But to the tribe of Levi God did not give them a separate portion. God Himself was their portion. He was their wealth for they were separated for God, to do His work in the temple of God. Hence God had instructed all the eleven tribes to give the best and first portion of their produce for the tribe of the Levites. As they were ministers, and ambassadors of God. Halleluiah! God said to the tribe of the Levites, “I am your inheritance and your portion and wealth.” Therefore being the wealth of God, how can they be underestimated? May this message help you to honour and give due respect to your Pastors, Preachers and Ambassadors of God. Never reject or disapprove the servants of God. Never rebuke them or insult them. Treat them well with reverence and respect. Then God will fulfil all your needs in good measure. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father God, we thank you for telling us through this message the importance of Pastors and Ambassadors, who are your representatives. Teach us to honour them and pay due respect to them. May we consider them as Jesus, when they visit our homes and learn to treat them properly and not be reluctant to receive them or think low about them. Help us to have a better understanding about them and treat them well. May they be of great blessing to us and our family.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Psalms 55:22, “Cast your cares on the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken”.
God says, cast your burden upon the Lord, and He will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved. Many of you are carrying your burden upon yourselves. My dear children of God, you can’t find a person who does not have a problem on this earth, all have one problem or other, but you seem to be carrying more burden than what you can, all by yourself. Many are carrying the burden of debts, disease, shame, and financial stress such as children’s education, medical expenses, and many more, on the other hand, some are carrying the burden of sin and some are bearing the burden of curses.
Today the Lord is telling you, why are you bearing all these troubles and struggles all alone. I am willing to share your burden. Cast them upon Me I will sustain you. The Lord bore all your sins, curses, debts, diseases, and finished everything on the cross and He is telling you not to bear your burden by yourself, He has borne it all by himself. We see many suffer from heart disease because they carry the burden in their heart, these burdens turn into depression and the depression turns into a serious mental disease. Therefore, before you are pushed into such situations, you need to mend yourself not to carry all the burdens but cast them at the feet of the Lord. Clear all problems that creep in your mind then and there and never ever accumulate them together. I have heard people say, ‘’I am hurt, my heart is heavy with pain, I never thought that my friend or the person I love would behave in this manner and betray me”. Yes, the people of the word may betray you or hurt you but Jesus will never hurt you.
The Bible says, “Come unto Me all ye that are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He is a God who gives us rest and He will give you peace regarding your family, your children, their education, your financial problem, your case dispute, whatever the problem might be cast it all at the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ, then things will be settled amicably for you. God will perform miracles in your life and deliver you from the problems, tell your problems to God and not to others because people often are happy when you suffer. Whatever burdens you have today please cast it upon the Lord. Try doing this every day. As you will face new challenges in your life, each day. I sincerely pray that all your problems and depression will be changed. You will see the goodness of God in your life. God Bless You.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord You have asked Your children to cast all their burdens upon You since You will sustain them. Help them to share all their problems with You. Let them not sink in depression, let them be free from their burden, and let there be peace in their lives. Many are carrying the burden of debts. Lord deliver them from such difficult situations and release them from their burden. Help them to settle all their debts. Some, due to illness have fallen into depression, rescue them, Lord. This has created fear of death in them, remove all fear from them and heal them from their disease. Perform a miracle for them, Lord whatever might be the reason that has led them to fall into depression. We submit all such people to be healed completely in the name of Jesus and help them to trust in You completely. Make all good things happen in their life.
In Jesus Name We pray.
Amen.
