My dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given you for today is from the book of, Matthew 20:16 “ So the last will be the first and the first last, for many are called but few are chosen. ”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we learn that God blesses those who wait upon Him. Today God wants to fill all the empty places of your life. He is a God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did.
Once a sister came up to me for prayer. She was very down in spirit. She said, “ Brother I am the eldest child in the family. But all my younger brothers and sisters have got married. But I am yet to get married. Please pray for me. I am patiently waiting for the Lord to perform a miracle in my life.” I was very much touched in my heart when she broke out in tears saying, “I feel so ashamed and humiliated to mingle with others.” I immediately prayed for her and blessed her in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I said, Lord you who fills all empty space with all good things, fill the empty space of her spouse with a suitable God-fearing husband. Please remove all reproach from her and make her a joyful woman. While praying for her the Lord clearly told me that there was a curse over the family. Though all her younger siblings were married, none of them had any children. So I prayed to the Lord to break the bondage of the curse that had fallen upon her family since He had nailed it on the cross of Calvary.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Then I prayed for her and said, “You who are last will be the first.” After a few weeks, she called me on the phone and said, that a good proposal had come her way and that God had answered her prayers. She was married and was blessed with twins. Only after her marriage, the bondage of the curse was broken, after which her other siblings gave birth to several children. God’s name is glorified. She was the last to get married in her family but God blessed her with children immediately. She was the first to give birth to children. Thus the above saying “The last will be the first and the first last,” came true in her life. God filled the empty space in her life by blessing her with husband and children.
When the prophet’s wife prayed to Elisha to help her clear her debts. Then God filled all the empty vessels in the city and produced overflowing blessing. God who blessed this daughter with a good husband and children will also bless those of you who are waiting to be settled. God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, we are thankful to You for filling all empty space in our lives. You hear our cry and answer our prayers. Teach us to wait on the Lord patiently until our prayer is answered. We thank you for making the last first and the first last. You O Lord are in heaven and do what pleases you. Make us enjoy the blessings of God. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
