My dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given you for today is from the book of Numbers 23:21, “The Lord His God is with him. And the shout of a king is among them.” It pleased the Lord to bless Israel. So God changed their curse into blessing.
Though King Balak invited Prophet Balaam to curse the people of Israel, the Lord intervened and changed the heart of Balaam and he obeyed God. Firstly, Balaam blessed their tents and dwelling places. Secondly, God exalted the kingdom of Israel which included the twelve tribes. God brought them out of Egypt and strengthened them like a wild ox. Balaam said, “Blessed are all those who bless thee. Israel will do valiantly and a star shall come out of Jacob. A Scepter shall rise out of Israel.”
Jesus was born into this world to save the people. They accepted Him and made Him walk as a royal king on the streets of Jerusalem. People spread their own garments on the road. As He went, the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen. Saying, “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, Peace in heaven and glory in the highest.”
Today, this king is visiting your homes. When Jesus lived in this world, He went about doing good to all. He preached the good tidings to the people, healed the brokenhearted and the sick, liberated the prisoners and comforted all those who mourned.
When this king comes into your homes, you will be relieved from all your sorrows, pains, sicknesses and whatever be your situation, God will set you free; for the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost. The thief (satan) came to steal, kill and destroy; but Jesus Christ came that you may have life in abundance. He wants you to reign with honour, and dignity. Only then can you suppress all those who rise up against you and be victorious.
Moses built an altar, called Jehovah Nissi, to celebrate their victory over the Amalekites. God was with them during the battle. When this Jehovah Nissi leads you in your battle, you will never be a failure. Therefore, choose to have Jesus in your life. You will be victorious.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, I pray that You may bless my children with power and strength. May the king of kings reign in their hearts. May they be victorious in their life. Give them the strength like that of the rhinoceros in order to overcome every difficult situation in their life. Lord, may You change all their curses into a blessings. In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
