Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you on this blessed day, July 19th, through this Auspcious word. May the Lord bless you abundantly.
Today’s auspicious word comes from Isaiah 60:22, “A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will hasten it in its time.” Perhaps you feel small and insignificant, looked down upon in your family, workplace, or ministry. Maybe you feel rejected and alone. But the Lord says that the little one shall become a thousand and the small one a strong nation. Just as David was belittled by his brothers but was later anointed as king in their presence, the Lord will lift you up in the very place where you were once rejected. He will honour you where you were dishonoured. This is your moment. God is about to make you the chief cornerstone.
Like Hannah, who said, “The Lord looked at my affliction and gave me a son,” God sees your tears. She fulfilled her vow to the Lord and gave back her son to Him, and afterward, God blessed her with five more children. Today, if the Lord reminds you of a vow you made but have not fulfilled, take it seriously. The Lord is saying that only after you fulfill your vow will He perform glorious things in your life. So, do not make emotional vows—pray, wait, and make vows in alignment with God’s will. God honors those who keep their promises to Him.
Sometimes it feels like things are stagnant, but remember, God will hasten it at the right time. Mordecai sat humbly at the palace gate, unnoticed, but when the appointed time came, the Lord lifted him up to a position of great honour—next to the king. Likewise, in your life, whether it is in your family, workplace, ministry, or business, the Lord will lift you up at the right time and give you royal honour.
Let us read a beautiful testimony. A dear mother shared how her son lost his job due to a problem at his workplace. Though he got another offer, many hindrances stopped him from joining. She wrote to Brother Stephen, who prayed and responded with promise verses. Holding onto those promises in prayer, her son received a better job with a higher salary at a well-known company. Truly, the Lord did it at the right time—and He will do the same for you.
Prayer:
Loving Lord, we thank You. You are the God who sees our affliction and blesses us in due time. I pray for every child of Yours who is reading this message. May those who have been afflicted multiply in thousands and lakhs. Bless the childless with the gift of children. Cancel debts and grant financial overflow. Grant them their own homes. In places where they were insulted and rejected, lift them up and make their names great. Hasten Your promises, O Lord, and bring speedy blessings. I also bless those celebrating birthdays and wedding anniversaries today. As written in Psalm 18:28, “You, Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light.” May this promise be fulfilled throughout this year in their lives.
In Jesus’ mighty name,
Amen.
