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 Psalms 37:18,19 “The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be forever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.”
From the above context we learn that God knows how long the upright will live, and all that will happen to them. God’s eyes are upon all the allotted days of their life; and nothing can shorten the days appointed to them. The wicked expect to live, hope to live, make their arrangements to live; but their eyes cannot rest on the future, and they cannot see the end – cannot tell precisely when they will be cut off. Some unexpected calamity – something which they cannot foresee may come upon them, and cut short their days long before the expected time. But this cannot happen to the upright. For God’s eyes are on the righteous. Nothing can prevent them from reaching their goals.
When trouble and calamity come, in seasons of famine or want, they will find their expectations, arising from confidence in God, fully met. And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. Their needs shall be supplied. God will provide for them. But the wicked and evildoers shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; indeed, you will look diligently for his place, but it shall be no more. The Psalmist David says, I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a native green tree, yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more; indeed I sought him, but he could not be found. This is the end of the wicked who rise up against the upright.
Many of you who are reading this message may have unknown enemies at your work spot. Or someone in your own business might be coming against you, as a result your business has fallen. Someone might have spent lot of money to do witchcraft or sorcery against you. It may be your own relative because of jealousy, may be trying to separate your wife from you or may be separating your children from you. Your own friend or someone whom you trusted very much can turn against you for various reasons and bring down your fall . They might cause deep mental stress to you and your family, and you are not able to understand why all this is happening to you. Well the Bible says, “Do not be afraid, of sudden terror. Nor of trouble from the wicked, when it comes. For the Lord will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. No weapon formed against you shall prosper. And every tongue which rises against you, in judgement, you shall condemn.”’ This message was prepared to comfort those of you who are struggling in such situation. While reading this message the Spirit of God would have spoken to you. It is your choice. If you choose to be upright in life then you will live a long, successful life. God wants not only you to live long, but also bless your inheritance. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. We thank You Lord for your concern about the Upright. Teach us to be upright in our life. That we may be blessed and never to do anything that would displease You and cause damage to our life. Thank You Lord for blessing our inheritance.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
