My beloved children in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you all on this day, September 24th, through this daily blessing word.
Let us read Psalms 5:12, “For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; With favour You will surround him as with a shield.” The Lord blesses a righteous man to flourish like a palm tree. Some people do not progress after a certain level and become stagnant. Their growth becomes stunted after a certain level. But that is not God’s plan at all. Just like David prospered day by day, the Lord wants us to flourish day by day. Have you seen a palm tree? You cannot look like this at a palm tree, not in surprise; you must look up in amazement to see the palm tree. A righteous man thrives like a palm tree means that he will be so blessed that everyone will be amazed at him. Today if your blessings are stagnant, for God to bless you to flourish like a palm tree you should be a righteous person. You should be God’s beloved. You should be a person of integrity in your work. You should not fall for some insignificant gift. We should be careful not to lose our birthright like Esau lost his for a mere bowl of stew. Be a righteous person truthful, and full of integrity in front of God, and you will flourish like the palm tree. You will be blessed. You must have heard people commenting, “When you fall from a small height, you may only break your hand or leg. But when you fall from a greater height not even your bones will remain. That is why God says when a righteous man flourishes like a palm tree the favour of God will surround him as with a shield. When you thrive as a righteous person, wherever you go you will not fall because the favour of God will surround you like a shield. A protected progress. Submit to righteous living so that the Lord might grant you a safe progression. God will work wonders.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank You. According to the verse, “For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor, You will surround him as with a shield.” Noah was a righteous man, and to protect him, Lord You made an ark. In the same way, let Jesus be their ark and protect them and take them to the highest places on this earth. Let their blessings not become stagnant but let them progress day by day. For Mordecai was great in the king’s palace, he became increasingly prominent and became second in rank to the King. Mordecai who sat within the King’s gate like a poor man became great and increasingly prominent as the second in rank to the King. Let there be open doors for my children, this is my wholehearted blessing. Remove every crisis, debt, and scarcity from my children. May they live in peace. In Jesus Name. Amen.
