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 1 Kings 8: 56, “Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised. There has not failed one word of all His Good promise which He promised through His servant Moses.”
We see in the above context how God fulfilled His promise that He had made. We also come to know that none of His word had failed to accomplish its purpose for which it was sent. As we have entered into a New Year we need to thank and praise the Lord for all the good things that God had done in our lives. He has given us life and confidence to live a better life in the New Year. God gave a word to Solomon saying, “You will build a temple for Me in Jerusalem. And I shall build a palace for you. Just like God had told him the temple of Jerusalem had been built. Our God is a God, who does with His hands what He speaks through His mouth.
It was not just the wood, gold and silver and other materials that were provided by King David, for the construction of the Temple but above all things Solomon, the son of David, had the favour of God, to build the temple. Now having built the temple, He gives thanks to God and praises God for helping him build, the temple before all the people of Israel. He gives offerings of thanksgiving, on the day of dedication. The above words were uttered by Solomon on the day of dedication in the presence of the Lord. He says, Lord we thank You for fulfilling all the good promises, You have spoken through Your servant Moses.
Solomon says, Lord we thank You for fulfilling all that you have spoken over the people of Israel and finally You have given rest to Your people. And we thank You because not one word, that You have spoken, through the Prophet Moses has failed, in fulfilling its purpose. Not one word has fallen down. I would like to say, according to the Bible, that every word of God, will accomplish the purpose for which it was sent forth. It will not return back void. Some of you are thinking in your mind, Well God had promised many things in the beginning of 2020, but nothing has happened. You are so disappointed. While some of you are really praising for all that the Lord had done for you the whole of 2020, some of you say, He had failed to keep His word. Some of your needs are still pending, to be met by God. But God will never fail you. He will fulfil all that is pending in this New Year. God will surely hasten Himself, to perform, all that you need in your life.
May be last year, your daughter’s marriage has not happened as you expected. You couldn’t get your Visa to go abroad, last year, or you were not blessed with the gift of a child last year. You might have started building your house but you were unable to complete it due to various reasons. Even now nothing has gone out of your hand. God will fulfil all that you desire to have in this New Year. Believe that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think or pray for, according to the power that works in you. A flick of a second is enough for God to perform a blessing for you and make you rejoice in Him. Nothing is too hard for the Lord to do. For it is nothing, for God to help you, whether with many or with those who have no power. Therefore rest in God and put your faith in Him. Then He will do miracles for you. God Bless You.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you Lord for helping us to realize the greatness of God and for fulfilling, what you have spoken by your mouth. We believe with all of our heart that you will perform miracles for us in this New Year and help us see great days. Help us to restore all that we have lost in our life, that we may glorify God and praise Your Mighty name.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
