Joel 3:16, “But the Lord will be a shelter for his people, And the strength of the children of Israel.”
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious word of God that comes to you is taken from the book of Joel 3:16, “But the Lord will be a shelter for his people, And the strength of the children of Israel.”
My dear children, The Lord promises to go before you and straighten all that is crooked, but for that, we need to learn to depend upon Him and trust Him with our future. The moment you tell the Lord, that you desire to be His child and submit your life to be obedient to Him. He will take complete control of your life. Therefore, you need not worry. It is very important that we learn to trust the Lord with our whole heart which means to completely and wholeheartedly trust that His power and sovereignty will meet all our needs. This is a type of child-like trust in believing that our heavenly father will provide all our needs. We should never lean on our understanding but in all our ways learn to acknowledge Him, then surely God will direct our paths and lead us in a blessed way.
My dear children of God, the Lord assures you today that God will be a shelter to you and your family. He will not only be a shelter but also be your strength, as you are the chosen children of Israel. Today as you commit your lives to Him, He is receiving you as His children. God is giving you a special blessing, by acknowledging you as His precious children. He will accompany you wherever you go. He will be a shelter to you and a fortress to protect you from all danger and harm in the places you go to. He will destroy all the weapons formed against you. The sorcery and witchcraft formed against you will be completely destroyed by God because you are precious in his sight so, do not fear. The Lord will lead you and your family. He will form you and make you bold; make you walk on a new path with a bright future.
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for speaking to us through the verse “But the Lord will be a shelter for his people, And the strength of the children of Israel”. Dear Lord, I pray that there should be no barriers in the life of my children in moving forward in their life. Let them live joyfully as their soul prospers. Let them make an increase from the East and West and multiply in their strength and number. Destroy all the works of the evil one and every form of witchcraft and sorcery. Let miracles happen in their life such that they may proclaim all good things that happened in their lives as testimonies to others.
In Jesus Name We Pray
Amen
Proverbs 15:8, “The Prayer of the upright is His delight.”
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious word of God that comes to you is taken from the book of Proverbs 15:8, “The Prayer of the upright is His delight.”
In Bible from Genesis to Revelation, we find believers praying to the Lord. Abraham, Joseph, David, and Daniel offer wonderful examples of believers bringing needs and praises before the Lord. They did so consistently, even if it meant personal risk. Prayer was a priority for them. We can assume that one of the critical reasons for their deep spirituality was that prayer had a place of priority in their lives.
My dear children of God, how many of you are making an effort to do things that please God? The Psalmist says, ‘Lord teach me to do what is pleasing to you’. Our prayers should be in a way that pleases the Lord. The verse says that ‘the prayer of the upright is His delight’. Firstly, we need to be upright in our character. If you want to please the Lord, then you need to pray with an upright heart. You should pray to the Lord with the assurance that you have been saved and that you have been forgiven of your sins. You need to pray with a pure heart. Then your prayer will be answered. Many of you have this question, “As to why my prayer has not been answered.” God says, today you sanctify yourself, and tomorrow you shall see the wonders of God.” Earnestly ask God to sanctify you and purify you and make you fit before Him that He would be willing to hear your prayer, and answer you and bless you.
If you humble yourself before God, seeking His face and turning from your wicked ways, then God will hear your prayer from heaven and will forgive your sins and heal your land, and grant you good fortune. When God is pleased with your behaviour then God will begin to do all that is pleasing for you. Say, “Lord help me to tell a prayer that pleases you. Teach me, Lord, to do that which is pleasing in your sight. Never to be hypocritical in my prayer, but be filled with the spirit of God. May I live a life of Godliness, a life of righteousness, and that which is pleasing unto God. Also say, Lord, I have decided to live for you and your glory. To live a life that is pleasing to God. Ask God to forgive you, of all your sins and sinful nature. God will then do great and mighty things for you in your life.
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for speaking to us through the verse “The Prayer of the upright is His delight”. Lord, Help my children to pray in the way that pleases you. I pray for those children who cry out to God to be gracious and merciful, be merciful to them and may your power be exhibited to them by the miracles you do for them. Lord let your ears be opened to their prayers and also let your eyes be opened to see the affliction that they go through and thus answer their prayers. Let many miracles be performed for them.
In Jesus Name We Pray
Amen
Psalm 122:7, “Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces”.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord for today is taken from the book of Psalm 122:7, “Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces”.
Today, the Lord is telling you that, firstly there will be peace within your walls which means inside your house! To those who are lamenting that there is no peace in their house, the Lord is going to bless your home today with peace within your walls. Some take extreme measures in destroying their lives since they have lost all hope and peace. They think that no one can save them. Today, the Lord is expelling all the spirits that disturb the peace from your house. Jehovah Shalom the God of peace has come into your house today. Until yesterday, it was the work of Satan, it was the reign of darkness, but as you read these words, the Lord is causing a spirit of light to shine upon you.
It means that the Lord of Comfort will come into your house and will change all tears, gnashing of teeth, and the disturbance of the peace. Firstly, the Lord is bringing everything under His control and is ruling your house. Your children will be taught by the Lord. Their peace will be great.The Lord will remove your shame and make you live in peace. If sickness has caused a lack of peace, the Lord will heal you and give you peace.
Secondly, it is said that there will be prosperity within your palace. It means that the Lord is breaking all curses in your house. Everything is like an empty vessel. Jesus went to the house in Cana for the wedding. There were empty jars before Him. There was no wine but only plain water and there was an urgent need of wine for the wedding festival. However, the Lord turned plain water into tasty wine. Today, Lord who filled the empty jars with wine will fill your empty jars too. There is going to be great prosperity in your life in the coming future. The Lord will bless you with overflowing blessings.
PRAYER: Loving Lord, we thank you! Lord, you have told, “Let Peace be within yourwalls, and Prosperity within your palaces”. May the peace of God dwell in the houses of your children. May wealth and prosperity remain in their house. May they enjoy good health. Let your word be fulfilled in their lives. May Your peace abide with them.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen!
Mark 9:23, “Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Today’s word of God for you, is taken from the book of Mark 9:23, “Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
A man’s life is based on his faith. It is his trust that he is able to establish his life. If he loses his faith in any particular thing then he cannot do or achieve anything in his life, and even his physical health will be badly affected. His mind gets affected, and he becomes very weary and sick. Everything comes to an end for him. But faith encourages him to raise up again.
I have good counseling for children who are saying “Nothing good has happened in my life so far”. Today, Increase your faith in God. Because all things are possible to those who believe in God. So, all you got to do is to have faith in God and also have faith in yourself because you belong to God. Then you can achieve everything in life.
In the Bible we can see, a father brought his young son to Jesus, and the father told Jesus that his son was suffering from a very small age. And the evil spirit in him was pushing him into fire or water in order to kill him. The Devil was only looking for a chance to kill him. The father had suffered immensely because of the young boy. The father had heard of Jesus. So, he knew that if he approached the Lord Jesus Christ, then he would get a solution to his problem. So having faith in Jesus he brought his young son to Him. He did not know any other way but to come to Jesus. The Father believed that Jesus was the only way, and so he came to Him. At that time Jesus said to him, “If you believe then you shall see the glory of God.”
By saying this Jesus was trying to tell the father, that if he believed then his son would be delivered from the clutches of the evil spirit. So, the father replied to Jesus, “Lord I believe but in case I fail to believe, then I pray that You will help my unbelief.” So, he prayed to the Lord to help him have faith in God. And because he prayed, and admitted his weakness to the Lord, God delivered his son from the hold of the evil spirit. God delivered the young man from fits that caused him to fall into fire and water. The boy was delivered from his suicidal attempt. God immediately delivered the boy from the grip of the evil spirit and handed him over to his father. But when did Jesus do that? When the father prayed to the Lord to save him from his unbelief. He said, that he believed that Jesus, could deliver his son, but then in case he failed to believe or have faith, then he cried out to the Lord saying, “Lord help my unbelief.”
Today most of you are praying for various things, to get a car, to get a house, to secure a job, to get married, for the blessing of a child, but how many of you are praying to the Lord, to save you from your unbelief or to help you have more faith in God. When you pray to the Lord, that God should save you from all your unbelief then the Lord will perform miracles in your life, God will strengthen your faith, and you shall be delivered from all your unbelief. Because all things are possible to them that believe in His name. So have faith in the word of God, then the request you pray for shall be answered.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank You. Lord, help my children not to be unfaithful. I pray that they will be more faithful to God. Let all unbelief be removed from their heart and mind. Help my children see the glory of God. Let every plan of the evil spirit be uprooted from their life. Deliver them and bless them to live a life that pleases You.
In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen.
Dearly Beloved, I greet and bless you in the name of our Creator, Maker, and ever unforgettable Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Exodus 34:6, “And The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, The Lord, the Lord God merciful, and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth.”
From the above context we learn that David had tremendous faith in God. David had foes both within the family, and outside his family. They waited to take away his life. So he said to God, “Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it and be ashamed because You Lord, have helped me and comforted me.”David was pained at heart because even his wife was taken away from him and given in marriage to someone else. He couldn’t bear the separation. King Saul treated him like a flea and kept chasing him throughout his reign as the king of Israel. David was compelled to live in hideouts, in the forests and deep woods.
Are you being chased by your enemies like David? There may be many proud people risen against you, within your family, at your work spot, in the ministry which you do, or in your college where you have been studying, be careful. See what David did, he did not curse or argue with his enemies; instead he silently proved that God was with him, and believed that he would fight for him. He said, “Lord you are a God of compassion, You know my heart, and there is none beside you.” Even my wife did not listen to me, she has gone away with her father. So he submitted his life to God asking him to take care of his life, and he complained about the people, who did not set God before them. And they have no conscious in seeking his life.
May be you too, are honest and faithful to all your people whom you come across, like David, but you have been targeted innocently. You have been accused falsely; someone in your family has taken away the property that actually belongs to you. Yet you have been harmless. Such people are loved by God and will also be comforted. No evil shall befall you, God himself will be a wall of fire about you and your family. He will guard you and protect you. David is, unable to bear the pain of his sufferings, so he cries out to God for help. He asks God to show him a sign, for good, that those who hate him might see it and be ashamed because the Lord helped him and comforted him too. David wanted God to reveal to him, that God was dealing with him for his good and not for evil. He wanted to ensure that God was with him and against all his enemies. His enemies could not allow the poor servant of God alone. Instead of applauding him and making him the chief of the army or giving him a high post in the kingdom, for winning the great giant Goliath King Saul his, uncle was taking every effort to kill him by throwing javlin at him. Unitedly they sought the good man’s life. They hunted in packs and keen scent and eager foot to destroy him.
God has promised that He will not suffer the innocent, to be oppressed, but will always, at length, succor them. Thus David confided in God, and encouraged himself in the Lord God of Israel. God will fight for you and exalt you as He exalted, David to be the king of Israel after the death of king Saul. God will be merciful to you and deliver you from the hands of evil people. God says, for a little while I had forgotten you but later I will show mercy to you. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord we thank You for being merciful to us. For helping us get along in this world, by Your strength. Just as you fought for David please fight for us too, as we are often attacked by several enemies. Save us from their cruel hands. Make us stand erect before them at the appointed time. So that they will know that we belong to a holy God.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
