My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The blessed word for today is from the book of Psalms 9:18, “For the needy shall not always be forgotten. The expectation of the poor shall never perish forever. “
Everybody lives with hope saying, One day, “I too will become great, I too will get a good job with a good salary. One day I too will get married and I too will have children.” These are some of the hope you have for the future. The Lord is telling you that your hope will never go in vain. The above verse says God will never forget the needy. Your hope will never be destroyed. Maybe your relatives would have forgotten you, for many years. But the Lord says, “Even if your father and mother may forget you, I will not forget you. I have engraved you in the palm of My hands and you are in My thoughts always.
The Lord loved Ephraim the son of Joseph, so He says, “How will I forget you? How will I forsake you? I am not a God who forgets you. Whoever touches you, will be likened to one who touches the apple of My eyes. You are always in My sight.” The Lord says, “Surely the poor will not be forgotten. Your loved ones may forget you but, I will never forget you because it is I who sustains you. I am the Lord who leads you. “I know all your needs, and since I know I who sustain you, I will help you at the right time. He says, be calm, be still and know that I am God. I am He, who formed you in your mother’s womb. Even before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. And before you were born, I sanctified you. “
All those of you who are crying and lamenting in brfore darkness will see the Light. Your days of sorrow will come to an end. The Psalmist makes a contrast between the wicked men who despise God with the future hope of those that are persecuted for righteousness sake and are often abused by their enemies. He highlights the end of those who oppose the Lord and rebel against His truth and He comforts those who trust in His Word and honour His holy name, by saying, “The needy will not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the afflicted perish forever.” May the Lord speak to you and comfort you through His word. So, throw away the fear and look to the everlasting Light, Jesus Christ. God Bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord thank you for telling us that you never forget the needy. Your words comforts us Master. We also thank You for saying, that our hope in You will never go in vain. And no disaster will befall our doorstep. Help us to come out of darkness and walk in the light following Your word everyday.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord, for today is from the book of Jeremiah, 1:8, “Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord.
Jeremiah lived in the midst of a world at war and we too live in a world that is equally dysfunctional, angry, and evil, but may we never forget that we have the eternal promise of our God and Saviour to deliver us. Lord knew us before we were conceived. He knitted us together in our mother’s womb and scheduled every day of our lives. We do not need to fear what man can do to us, nor become unnerved by Satan’s wiles. There is nothing that man can do to us that can remove us from His protective love and care. He has promised to deliver us from the snare of the fowler, the noisome pestilence, the terror of night, and the arrow that fly by day. We have an anchor for our soul and a strong tower in which to hide. God promised to rescue Jeremiah from every danger and distress, and that same promise of protection is our inheritance too, “for greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.”
Today the Lord is going to come along with you and finish all the things that were incomplete in your life. When the presence of the Lord goes before you, then all the obstacles that block your progress will move away. When the obstacles will move away, then a miracle will happen. So, the presence of God is going to come along with you, wherever you go, to support you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I bless my children wholeheartedly in the name of Jesus Christ. The Lord said, “I am with you to protect you.’’ Be with all my children wherever they go today and protect them. Cause all that they undertake to be a success. Help them to see wonders, so that they will rejoice with a shout of praise, having experienced the miracle of God in their life.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ. Today the Lord is telling to you that He will exalt you and you will move up in your life. “He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the beggar from the ash heap, To set them among princes And make them inherit the throne of glory.” (1 Samuel 2:8)
God is declaring to you that He will make you “the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath” (Deuteronomy 28:13). Consider the progress in David’s life. God exalted David from an ordinary shepherd to becoming King of Israel. Look at Joseph’s life. He was thrown into the pit by his brothers. But God promoted him to be the governor over all of Egypt (Genesis 41:41). Examine Daniel’s life. God elevated him for all the agony that he suffered while in prison (Daniel 2:48). This same God who raised them is faithful to promote you in due time. The lives of the saints in the Bible serve as a testimony of God’s goodness. Hence, do not lose heart!
Our God desires to exalt everyone but He is very much pleased to exalt the one who is humble. The Bible says “he who humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 14:11).
Many people become puffed with pride with a sudden promotion in life. They develop an air of superiority that causes their downfall. Let us not let pride of letting pride enter our lives because many have fallen due to pride than due to sin!
God says: “if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14).
Learn to be humble from our Lord Jesus Christ! He humbled Himself and became obedient to death on a cross! Prophet Isaiah humbled himself like this, “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips” (Isaiah 6:5). David humbled himself saying, “But I am a worm. A reproach of men, and despised by the people (Psalm 22:6). Apostle Paul humbled himself testifying, “I am the worst sinner of all” (1 Timothy 1:15). So, my dear children of God, be discerning and learn to be humble. Great and mighty things will happen in your life when you humble yourself. You will be exalted by the Lord himself and everything will be added to your life. Do not be worried!
Prayer: Dear Lord, I thank you for every soul who has committed to be humble after reading this message. Lord, I pray that as they submit to You, help them to wait patiently till they receive the promotion from You. Lord grant them the blessings that they desire! Bless each one of them because of their humble spirit.
In Jesus name.
Amen!
My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The blessed word for today is from the book of Isaiah 62:3, “You will be a crown of splendour, in the Lord’s hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God.”
We are God’s Royal Diadem, and we are beautiful in God’s hands. God’s plan is to beautify us and make us a showcase of His glory; He wants us to shine and bring Him glory and honor. For when a crown or diadem is beautiful, it is an honor to the king who owns it. As a royal diadem, we are God’s treasured possession and He cares about us so much that He promised to spare us. He will spare us from evil and from all manner of calamities.
The crown of splendour signifies the holy crown. For the Lord to crown a person with the crown of holiness, He expects a testimonial life in Him. If that is there then the Lord will surely give the royal crown. Daniel had a royal adornment. What was it? He made a decision, in his heart, that the king’s delicacies will not defile his body. So, he refused to eat the food that was offered to the king. He refused to drink or eat meat that was given to him. He ate just vegetables and had water to drink. Thus, he proved his testimony by keeping his body clean and holy and this pleased the Lord. This was a spiritual adornment. The Lord gave a royal adornment, and then the Lord kept a royal crown over him and gave him authority over Babylon.
Likewise, if we look at Joseph, he ran away from the lust of the flesh. Potiphar’s wife provoked him to commit sin. She was his mistress. But he left everything and ran away, because of the fear of the Lord. That is why he received the crown of royalty. And was made the governor of Egypt. Before this, he had the holy adornment in him.
So today everyone desires to have the royal crown. The first criteria for becoming a crown of glory and a royal diadem in God’s hands is to purge ourselves from sin. Because God’s eyes are too pure to behold evil and iniquity. To be able to approach God’s throne, our hands and heart must be pure. Therefore, seek God’s forgiveness through the blood of Jesus Christ. And accept God’s free gift of salvation.
After seeking and receiving His forgiveness, the next phase is sanctification. Sanctification means to set apart unto God for His use and glory. God’s plan is to make us into His treasures so that we will be highly sought after. We’ve seen that God places premium value on us, to the extent that we receive Him. You must want and choose to be sanctified by God by casting aside your own wishes and desires and diligently following and obeying the master. To be sanctified means choosing above all else to live according to God’s will and purpose.
So, submit yourself unto the Lord as the holy adornment in Him. And receive the crown of splendor from his hand.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, you have told us to worship you with a royal adornment. So, we worship you on this day, with holy adornment. Through this give my children, the crown of splendour along with the royal diadem. Let them be a royal diadem in the hands of the Lord. Let all their poverty, famine, and shame disappear from their life. Give them divine prosperity and peace. And help them to live a royal life, with royal respect. Let a miracle happen today for them. And let the name of God be magnified through them.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious life-giving word of the Lord, for today, is from the book of Matthew 5:12, “ Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven.”
Today the Lord is telling you to rejoice and be glad. Because great will be your reward in heaven. To see which reward will be great in heaven, let us read the previous verse. “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My Sake.” Today many of you, are being punished and have been falsely accused of something because of you choosing to be an ambassador for Christ in this world. Your name would have got spoiled even though you did not have any kind of relation to that particular incident. However, someone has related you to that issue and due to it, your heart is burdened. What must we do in such a situation? We must not cry or lament over it or we must not fight against them. Instead, what must you do? You must rejoice and be glad.
Because when such situations happen your reward in heaven will be great. The reward in heaven is more important than the reward we receive on this earth. So, you need to forgive them freely and you must not cut off that love and fellowship. The Lord has told you to love your enemies. The Lord is telling you to love those who falsely accuse you, Love those who did wrong to you. When you do so, your spiritual grade will keep increasing. The Lord will have high respect for you. It is normal for us to respect the Lord. But it is a great achievement for you to be respected by God.
For instance, we can read in Bible, when Stephen prayed to the Lord, for the sake of the people, who wanted to stone him to death. He said, “Let not the curse fall upon them.” He forgave them and gave up his life. Thereby what happened? Our Lord Jesus Christ who was seated at the right hand of God, The Father, stood up and respected Stephen. What does this mean? We read in the Bible that the Lord had more respect, and happiness for Stephen.
While Jesus was hanging on the cross, many accused him falsely. Many who passed by spoke ill about Jesus. It is mentioned, that the passer-by spoke ill about Jesus, mocked Him, and criticized Him. But Jesus heard everything silently and remained calm and quiet. So, when you experience such a situation, you need to remain silent and you should not fight back.
The Bible says, present your case and He will do justice “The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” God will surely do justice when you are blamed and cornered by the people around you, Be Still and be glad in the Lord. God will bless you with happiness as said in Bible “Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble”. God will calm down the storm in your life and then you shall receive, a great reward in heaven. The Lord will honour you and cause you to live happily.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord look upon those children who have been falsely accused of their righteousness, and truth. Let them not think about the bad incident and lament over it. Instead let them praise the name of the Lord, rejoice and be glad. Help them to forgive others, and have a good fellowship with them. I bless them to receive a great reward in heaven. But let them also receive the reward for it in this world, as long as they live. Lord exalt the names of all my children who are suffering in such situations, before those who wanted to shatter and spoil their names. You have said in the Bible, that you will prepare a table for my children before their enemies. And will anoint their head with oil. Lord, anoint them with oil of gladness and cause their vessels to overflow. Let my children receive the reward from heaven.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
