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 Genesis 24:60 And they blessed Rebecca and said to her, “ Our Sister, may you become, The Mother, of thousands of ten thousands: And may your descendants possess, The gates of those who hate them.”
From the above word of God, we learn about Rebekah. She was chosen by Eliezer to be the lawful wife of Isaac , son of his master Abraham. So she along with her servant Deborah were going away from her father’s house to a distant country to Abrahams house. And her family might not see her in the future. So Rebekahs father Bethuel and her brother Laban bless her from the depth of their heart. It is supposed to be a farewell blessing and good wishes of the father. It was based on two objects. 1. That she should be the mother of many descendants and secondly that they should be victorious over their enemies.
They actually prayed God to make her very fruitful in the land where she goes. They wished the best and choicest blessing might descend upon her and said unto her, “ May you be the mother of thousands of millions.”And accordingly she became the mother the Edomites and Israelites both were born from her own womb. And they also said, “Let thy seed possess the gate of those who hate them. Indicating that her descendants would exercise dominion and authority over their enemies. Let them not only be numerous in number but also victorious.
Just as Bethuel and Laban blessed Rebekah God wants to bless you. He wants you to enjoy the wealth and riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. God is mindful of you, your family and your children. He remembers you in your lowly state. He is a God who provides food to all flesh. He alone does great wonders for his mercy endures forever. My dear children of God, may be you are going through some kind of financial stress or caught up with huge debts or you are in a poverish state throughout your life and do not know how to overcome this situation. Well the Lord will deliver you from all your financial crisis. And redeem you from your distress. The Bible says, Though He (Jesus) was rich, yet for your sake, He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich. Trust in Jesus, Believe Him, for He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. Especially when you are broken, and are in need of financial success. Our God is one who opens his hand and satisfies the desire of every living thing. God who did not spare his own son, (Jesus) but delivered Him up for us all, How shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? The only thing God expects of you is to submit to God and be at peace with Him. In this way Prosperity will come to you. You will be enriched in every way for he who trusts in the Lord will prosper.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. We thank you for being mindful of us. We pray Lord that you will redeem us from our financial crisis, and bring about a financial break through. Help us to manage our family through difficult times. Grant us the spirit to trust in You at all times in sorrow or in joy. Never to leave you, or drift away from you. May we prosper and be successful in our lives. 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 Isaiah 30-18 “ Therefore the Lord will wait, that He may be gracious to you. And therefore He will be exalted that He may have mercy on you. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for Him”
From the above context we realize that our God is willing and is always waiting to help His children who totally depend upon Him. For our Lord is a God of Justice. God waits to save his children from getting into trouble. God has a right time to help us. He is a God of judgement. He is a righteous God. His waiting is full of work to fit us to receive His grace.
Today we find that God’s children are surrounded by ungodly people. Even though we are in this world we do not belong to this world spiritually. But we find many people planning to destroy us by any means. They plan to destroy our family, our children. A group of people are waiting to come against you, and wait as to when you will fall, when your family will be completely destroyed, when your children will be caught up in some kind of trouble. They rejoice at your fall. They may be your own relatives or neighbours, friends, or your own dear and near ones. They pretend to be good on the outside, but deep in their heart, they wish to see your downfall. This is the kind of attitude people have towards you.
You may not have a child to inherit your large property or your wealth. So immediately they see that you remain barren always, by trying all kinds of sorcery and witchcraft against you in order to usurp all your wealth and property for their children. They plan to grab your wealth for the simple reason that you are childless. Some wait to see when you will lose your post in the office concern, where you are employed, so that they may occupy your position or grade of work. They plan to destroy your good name, and reputation. While some try to tease and criticize and pull your legs down from your high position by spreading false or wrong information about you. While all this is happening in your life, the God of compassion is quietly waiting to show compassion and mercy to you if you look up to Him during times of distress or tribulation.
I tell you that the God of compassion is patiently waiting beside you to help you, to be gracious and merciful to you, in spite of all the efforts people have taken to act against you. For God is our refuge and strength. A very present help in trouble.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Our God is a God of Compassion. So however people try to destroy you, God is there to help you come out of all such odd situations. Reason out for yourselves when others inquire about the welfare of your children. Be cautious in all your doings. Pray to the Lord. Then He will directly reveal all things to you about your friends or other people who wish to destroy, your peace, happiness, and plans for your life. God’s waiting is very patient. God’s waiting is full of divine desire to help. Blessed are all they that wait for Him. This waiting upon God in His way with faith and patience is a surer way to your safety and happiness, than seeking any other carnal remedies. May the Lord direct your steps and help you seek God while you are in trouble.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank You for teaching us to depend upon God when we go through tribulation. Help us to be cautious when others inquire about our loved ones so that no harm might befall them. Give us the mind of discernment, to identify the odd person in our life and cast him aside. Save us from such people who plan to destroy us.
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, Proverbs 13:12 , Hope deferred makes the heart sick but when the desire comes it is a tree of life.
My dear children of God may be until now you have not received the desire of your heart. But soon God will satisfy the longing soul. When your desire comes to pass then it will be like a tree of life. The Bible says, For He satisfies the longing soul and the hungry soul He fills with good things. To Accept Jesus as your Father firstly you got to believe in Him and then you need to accept Him as the Lord and Master Of your life. Make Him the redeemer, and Saviour of your life. Some are willing to believe in Jesus but they hesitate to accept Him as the Lord and Master of their life. This indicates that you are far from receiving God’s blessing. When you receive Jesus as your personal Saviour, then God will destroy all your enemies. “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. Every form of witch craft and sorcery will flee away from you and your family. Sometimes your own family people will suppress you because of your weakness. It may be due to poor financial condition or due to low family status. God will destroy everything that stands against you And He will place a wall of fire around you and protect you from every form of evil forces. And God will grant you victory and joy in the morning.
The Bible says, Weeping may endure for a night But a shout of joy comes in the morning. That means one may experience sorrow during the night but joy arrives in the morning. Bible gives us examples of stories like Lazarus whom Jesus raised. The sisters Mary and Martha had lost all hope when their brother Lazarus had died. Both the sisters were stricken with grief and sorrow. The hard reality of death had not destroyed their love for Him. But it had demolished their hope. They expected Jesus to come to their aid immediately But Jesus delayed visiting them for He knew that, this sickness will not end in death, but for the glory of God. He arrived in Bethany after Lazarus had been dead and buried for four days. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me shall never die. And when the stone was removed, Jesus cried with a loud voice,” Lazarus, come forth. ” So Lazarus came forth from the tomb alive. Mary and Martha rejoiced to see their brother come back to life. They knew that Jesus alone could save their brothers life. Jesus changed their sorrow into joy in a moment. There was great rejoicing in the family at Bethany. Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes it is a tree of life. There was joy and merry in the house of Martha and Mary. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Teach your children to believe and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. Enable them to accept Jesus as their saviour. So that they may inherit the blessing of the Lord. Help them to draw close to Jesus and not to keep Him at a distance. Enable them to enjoy the goodness of God. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
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 Deuteronomy 14:29.“ And the Levite, because he has no portion, nor inheritance, with you and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates, may come and eat and be satisfied, that the Lord your God, may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do. ”
From the above context we see how God had directed the people of Israel to consider the poor, the fatherless and the widows. And then God promises to bless them. In ancient Israel, God instructed His people to set aside a special tithe to assist those in need: orphans, widows, strangers, and Levites. Even today the churches set aside a portion of tithe for the welfare of the poor people. And they used some of the revenue to support God’s work of preaching the gospel and help the church members that gather to worship. A portion from the produce of their land was also used to support the poor and needy. The whole appointment evidently was against the covetousness, distrust, and selfishness of the human heart. It promoted friendliness, liberality, and cheerfulness, and raised a fund for the relief of the poor. They were taught that their worldly portion was most comfortably enjoyed, when shared with their brethren who were in want. If we thus serve God, and do with what we have, it is promised that the Lord our God will bless us in all the works of our land. The blessing of God is all to our outward prosperity; and without that blessing, the work of our hands will bring nothing to pass.
Today all the promises and the blessings of God which He has spoken will rest upon the crown of your head. You have experienced many stormy wind during the past years, but you waited very patiently for God to do something good in your life. You had to face many challenges, but in spite of all the hurdles you had a boldness within you that one day the Lord will perform a miracle for you. Hence your hope will not be lost for surely there is a hereafter. You hoped that heavenly rain will pour down upon you and your family. You are waiting upon God with much hope. That is why God wants to bless you through this message. From today onwards it’s going to rain on your side. May be until today you had only experienced sheer dryness as a result there was lack of finance and thereby you landed in huge debts. And you had to face shame and dishonour.
You neither had gold or silver or sufficient money to settle your children in marriage, You couldn’t help them to do higher studies. Nor could you establish a business for them Therefore you are pained at heart. But never forget that you have a God who has the gold and silver. So don’t be afraid of the prevailing situation, God has come down to help you. God is about to pour his blessings upon you, and your family. All that God expects from you is that when God blesses you, then you need to consider the poor. If you do so, then the Lord your God, will bless you in all the work of your hand which you do. All these days you never seemed to prosper in any of the things you attempted to do. But henceforth you shall prosper because you have set your hope in God. It is certain that after reading this message a ray of hope has filled your heart regarding a bright future. Faith like that of a mustard seed has developed within you. So all the mountain like problems that stand as a blockade preventing you from being successful, will be uprooted. God has placed not only an open door but a favourable door to your success. God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you for teaching us to be thoughtful about the poor and needy. Help us to share what we have with others, never to underestimate them at any cost but to consider them. And thus be blessed in our lives. May we help the people in our church and contribute to the preaching of the Gospel.
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 Proverbs 3:34, “Surely He scorns the scornful, But gives grace to the humble.’’
My dear brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand, that the Lord is so concerned about His children. God exalts those who humble themselves before God. Humbleness is one of the characteristics of good personality. May be you are lacking this quality in life. Until yesterday you might have been a proud person. Pride has blinded your eyes from doing the right things. Therefore you have been caught up in one problem or another. God wants to help you live a good and peaceful life. He wants you to progress or move forward in your life. He wants you to be successful in your life. His mercy is very essential to lead a good life.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, make a decision to put away pride. Be not haughty or short tempered. The Bible says, behold the proud, his soul is not upright in him. He transgresses by wine, for he is a proud man. And He does not stay at home. He enlarges his desire and cannot be satisfied. He heaps up for himself. Ask God to forgive you of your pride. Say Lord I humble myself before you, Like Mary teach me to be humble. She said, ”Behold the maid servant of the Lord ! Let it be to me according to your word.”She humbled herself to the lord and therefore she found favour in HIS sight to carry the baby Jesus in her womb. Similarly you are going to hold many good things in your hand. You may even carry a holy generation in your womb.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, you need to turn to God to receive new mercies from God. Place your family, your children, your business, at the feet of the Lord. You need to pray for your needs and be thankful to God for all His blessings. Begin the day with prayer. With Jesus in the family makes a happy, happy home. If Jesus lives in your home then there will be rejoicing all the days of your life. If you need to live without being destroyed and if you need to rejoice all the days of your life, then you need to be satisfied by His new mercies every morning. That is why Moses cries unto the Lord saying, “Oh satisfy us early with your mercy, That we may rejoice all the days of our life according to days, in which you have afflicted us. The years in which we have seen evil.”
My dear brothers and sisters, It is true that you are working hard to enjoy a happy secured life, Therefore you are sacrificing many things in life in order to enjoy a peaceful life. So you need to beg unto the Lord for new mercies each day of your life especially in the early morning. When you search for God in the early morning you will receive his blessings and you will be successful in all your endeavours throughout the day. Never think of a life without Jesus Christ. His faithfulness is new every morning. Hallelujah! He will accompany you wherever you go, guide you and protect you. He will bless the work of your hands and prosper you. Only then you will be able to live a happy life according to the days you had been afflicted. God will do supernatural miracles in your life and you will receive protection. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank You for helping us to know the value of being humble in our lives. Lord has pity on us, and take away our shame and failures. Help us to see better days in life. Give us days of prosperity according to the days of our poverty. Touch us and bless us and our children that we may enjoy the days of our life. . In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
