I greet you in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Zachariah 2:5, “For I, says the Lord, will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.”
From the above context we understand that, God wants to encamp round about his temple Jerusalem, because of the enemy. God will be a wall of fire around about to terrify and destroy her enemies, for our God is a consuming fire. God himself wants to be a wall of fire, so that his people might be safe. Hence they need not fear the wrath of their enemies. For if God is on their side then who can be against them? God says, My Word shall be unto her as a wall, of fire, encompassing her round about.
God has come down in a marvellous, manner this morning to protect you and your family. He is mindful of you. He knows what you are, going through, the ups and down in your life. He knows that you are being surrounded by enemies, who prevent you from moving forward in your studies, in your business, in your career, or even in your family life. The enemy, wants to intrude into your life and spoil the peace and harmony of your life.
God found Noah to be the most righteous man, perfect in his generation, and Noah walked with God, Therefore God blessed him and his family and protected them from the floods that destroyed the earth. Similarly God wants to protect you and your family from the condemnation of this world. The scripture plainly declares, that there is therefore no condemnation to them, that are in Christ Jesus. That means, they walk with Christ each day of their life. Such people God encircles them as a wall of fire, and God will be the glory in the midst of Israel.
God is sending a peaceful wind to sweep over your family. He is spreading a wind of peace over your business, over your business centre, work spot, and your ministry so that all the turbulence in your life, can come to an end. God wants to give you another opportunity. May be you have lost all your wealth, property, your name, fame and health. But God wants to rejuvenate and restart your life. God is destroying every weapon formed against you and releasing you from all bondages that you are caught up with. Satan has planned to destroy you and your business, but God has planned to flourish and prosper you and your business. God is providing a hedge of protection around you and your family. He surrounds you with a wall of fire all around you to protect and safeguard you. May God help you to be within the protection of God.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you Lord for protecting us from the hands of our enemies. Help us to be just and righteous in our life that we may receive the blessing of God. Surround us with a wall of fire and safeguard us from all our foes. Make us successful in all the work that we do, in our studies, career, and family life.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Esther 9:1, “Now in the twelfth month, that is the month of Adar, On the thirteenth day, The time came for the kings command. And his decree to be executed. On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them.”
“My Dear Brothers and Sisters from the above context we realize that King Ahasarus ruled over 127 countries, He was a powerful ruler. He ruled from India, to Ethiopia. Many different kinds of people lived in these nations. And the Jews were spread across these 127 nations. The ruling government then issued an order, saying that on a particular day, at this particular time, the law will be implemented.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Similarly a law was passed stating that all the Jews should be killed in the twelfth month Adar, on the thirteenth day. All the Jews sat mourning over the decree about the death sentence passed against them. They trembled to hear the decree about the death. They were filled with fear, and anguish. All the Jews in these nations gathered together. There is only one opportunity to change or alter this situation. They knew that only God could bring about the change. So they fasted three days, and prayed earnestly for the king to change the law.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, The Kings commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution that on the thirteenth day, of the twelfth month all the Jews should be killed. Great expectation there was, no doubt, of this day and the issue of it. The Jews cause was to be tried, by the court of Shushan and the day was fixed for the combat by the authority. Their enemies resolved not to lose the opportunity given to them. They were with much hope to overpower the Jews.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, On the other hand, the Jews relied on the goodness of their God and justice, of their cause and resolved to make their utmost efforts against their enemies. Queen Esther boldly entered into the presence of the king and requested the king to change the law in favour of her people. The King was prepared to do anything for her so he altered the law in favour of the Jews at the last minute. Finally the day came, and we learn that it was a day, of great victory and triumph to the Jews both in the city of Sushan and in all provinces.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, The day which was selected by Haman with great industry and art as the luckiest day, turned out to be the unluckiest day, for Haman and the people of Sushan. The people of Sushan who were drenched in fear, began to rejoice at the verdict passed by the king. In the same way God can bring about a great change in your life too. Whatever problem you may be going through, God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that you ask or think or pray. Our God can change the very situation of your life in your favour and just the opposite will occur. It is an easy thing for the Lord to do. So don’t be afraid. Trust in Jesus. He will set you free from every bondage.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you for hearing the cry of the Jews and answering their prayer. Thank you for helping queen Esther to be bold and enter into the presence of king Ahasarus and intercede on behalf of her people and thus change the very course of the history of the Jews. Thank you for turning their sorrow into joy.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen
I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Psalm 66:5 , “Through You we will push down our enemies. Through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.”
From the above context we see the sufferings of David, being vividly described, which says, “’Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water” refers to the kind of trials and affliction he experienced in his life.
“ David believed that “Through God’s help he will push down his enemies. And Through the Name of Jehovah, he will trample all those who rise up against him. ” David was one such person who relied on God and trusted Him for all his purpose. He was being chased by his own uncle, King Saul who gathered three thousand men to capture a single man. God had disapproved Saul of being the king of Israel as he disobeyed God. The Bible says, (King Saul disguised himself and approached a woman (witch of Endor) who was practicing witch craft to rise up the Prophet Samuel who was dead. )
David was being chased by Saul and his army as one who hunts a partridge in the mountains. David was hiding among the hills and caves and mountains. And God directed him to escape to the temple of God. So He ran to the temple of God, there he sang a song, saying “You have caused men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water; But You brought us out to rich fulfilment.” He entered the temple of God singing and praising God, with burnt offering and paid his vows. He tells the Lord that he could not battle anymore against his enemies and surrenders to the God of Compassion. The moment he surrendered his life (himself ) to God, the Lord began to fight for him. While Saul was in the battle of Mount Gilboa, he fell over his sword and killed himself. Absalom, who rebelled against his father David, was killed during the battle of Ephraim’s Wood against the Philistines. Soon after the death of King Saul and Absalom David established himself as the king of Israel and ruled for nearly forty years both Israel and Judah. David thus put down his enemies.
Many of you who are reading this message, may be fed up of your lives. Because of your own people, who is a constant threat to you. They Search for you, to destroy you and your children. Some of them are trying to separate your children from you. You have not found any justice for all your good deeds in your life. Therefore you have become vexed with your own self, your own life. You don’t even find any sign of justice being done to you. Though it looks as if there is no sign of justice being done for you, a time will surely come when God will intervene and do you justice. Everything, every situation, all the people so close to you may seem to come against you all of a sudden. Yet God of Compassion, will come when you never expect Him and He will perform a miracle for you. He will turn everything in favour of you. Many may come against you. They come to spoil your peace joy, your happiness and cause menace in your life by probing into your family matters, and endanger your own lives. But the moment you call upon Jesus Christ, God will come to your aid and help you from all your difficulties. He will change all things in favour of you. So do not worry, but cast your burden upon the Lord, for he will never allow the righteous to be moved, instead, He will care for you. And will sustain you. May the Lord do justice to you today.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for doing justice to David. Though he struggled for his life yet in the end he emerged victorious. Likewise turn all things in favour of us, for we solely depend upon you for our sustenance. Prevent our enemies from coming to our homes. Give us the discernment to understand and avoid such intruders, who step into our homes to deliberately cause trouble to us.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My Dear Brother and Sister, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of Psalms 20:8 “They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand erect.”
My Dear Brother and Sister, from the above context we learn that our God, will help us to stand before others and not stoop to others. When our ways please the Lord then He will lift us up in position that others might see our life and come to know that God reigns in us. To those of you who are reading this message, I wish to say, that you might be thinking of the past hard days, and may be crying over it. You might be lamenting over your shameful life you had lived in the past. But please realize that you have Jesus who can turn your mourning into dancing. The Bible says, that Prophet Isaiah was sent to let God’s people know that He had not forsaken them, and that He would come to their aid and change their mourning into joy—giving them peace and heal their broken hearts, basically trading “Beauty” for the “Ashes” that was their life. Your life too may have been like ashes unfit for any use. But the Lord is willing to convert the ashes to beauty. So cheer up.
My Dear Brother and Sister, today Jesus is coming into your house, to give you double honour, instead of your shame. People who put you down, and suppressed you, and squeezed, you out will come and fall at your feet. And for this to happen in your lives all you need to do is to co operate with Jesus in all your ways. You need to co operate with Him in order that He might lift you Then you shall see a big harvest in your business, you will get back all the pending tenders for which you had earlier, made request. God will exalt you in the place of your ministry, where you had been, once put to shame. Many who are in the ministry are struggling daily in their life but the Lord who has watched your tears and your earnest desire to do His ministry is going to make your name great before others.
My dear Brother and Sister, Many workers of God who are sincerely doing the Lord’s service are crying today because some social elements,and those involved in communal activities, are putting you to shame and even disgracing you through the social media, saying all sorts of evil things about you. And because of this you might be, even going to the extent of quitting your service, for the Lord. You don’t have to do that, as the Lord is coming down to solve your problems. He is coming for you more powerfully. While I was praying in the presence of God, He revealed to me about the glorious things He is about to do, for those who are in the ministry, doing the work of God. Those who are spoiling your name will experience a period of destruction in their life in the coming future. In case you too who are reading this message, are involved in disgracing the ministers of God, I tell you, that you will also fall under the wrath of God.
My Dear Brother and Sister, You need to repent of your wrong doings, your evil plans and evil attitude towards the workers of God, to avoid the wrath of God that is to fall upon you. Suppose you come across such people, who are instruments working against the workers of God, then you better convince them about the wrath of God that is to come upon them. By rising against the workers of God you are not destroying them but you are defaming the name of Lord Jesus Christ. The good news, the Lord wants to inform the workers of God is that, He is about to give you garment of praise instead of your shame. He will grant you double honour, He will give you fresh anointing, spiritual gifts, healing power, and power to drive out evil spirit and thus magnify you before those, who criticised you and put you to shame. And when you pray for them, the Lord will hear your prayer and perform miracles for them. As a result they will fall and you will stand erect. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord look upon those who have read this message, for one more time, and be gracious to them. Help them to stand erect before their enemies, their own relatives, creditors, who put them to shame before others. Cause their name to be great in the midst of all those who have put them to shame. Let them experience joy instead of sorrow.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of I Samuel 16:13 “ Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.”
From the above context we learn that our God, provides for the welfare of the people, just as God had previously provided His people, deliverance from Pharaoh; manna, heavenly food, water from the rock, and quails for meat, the law through Moses, in the wilderness; and a land flowing with milk and honey, God says to Samuel: “I have provided for myself a king among Jesse’s sons.” God’s guidance is usually not as discernable in the moment as it is in hindsight. We may not sense what God is doing in our midst or how God is leading us. Even the great prophet Samuel did not know what God was doing. Neither Saul nor David’s older brothers might have understood the way in which God was providing for Israel a good leadership.
Jesse brought each of his first seven sons before Samuel to see which son would be anointed as king. “But none of them were chosen either. There was one more son, but he was the youngest and of such little account that Jesse had left him out in the field tending the sheep. In the ancient times, the shepherd was a symbol of the king. When David was brought forth, the Lord said, to Samuel. “Rise and anoint him; for this is the one I have chosen to be the king of Israel.” Then Samuel took the horn of oil out of his pocket, which he brought along with him by the direction of God: and anointed him in the midst of his brethren; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward;
From this incident we realize that God is careful to honour, His people, whom others have humiliated, and put to shame. God honoured David, among his brothers. God made his name great. God exalted David, who was criticised and condemned by his own brothers, and raised him up as the king of Israel, in the midst of his brothers. David was insulted and considered very low because he tended his father’s sheep. His seven other brothers were all warriors in the battle field. Once his father asked him to take the food and grains and give them to his brothers in the battle field. Being very obedient he readily agreed to go and offer the food and grain to his brothers with goodwill. While his brothers were all eating David was standing there and watching at the people over there and observing what was going on there. But his brothers rebuked him saying, “What work have you here? Keep on going.”They didn’t like him standing in the battle field as he was only a shepherd boy and was fit to tend only sheep. They put him to shame before others. They disregarded him, so God wanted to honour David.
Just as God honoured David and made his name great before his brothers God wants to make your name great. Will you humble yourself, before God and your own family members? Will you be patient and endure troubles at your work spot? Are you willing to go an extra mile and humble yourself before your Boss or any people who may dislike you for the glory of God, and then God will grant you double honour. He will give you name and fame. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank You Lord for teaching us through the character of David to be humble and patient. Teach us to be long suffering and tolerant even during trying times and never to be rude or boastful of our high position in life. Never to disrespect or disregard anyone have we come in contact. Let others see Christ in Us.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
