Dearly beloved 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 for you today is from the book of Isaiah 44:4, “They will spring up like grass in a meadowlike poplar trees by flowing streams”. Have you noticed the plants that grow by the waters? The get nourished by the nutrients and they grow with full strength. They never go dry. Likewise, God will nurture and bless you. He will cause you to prosper and be a blessing to many.
When you obey the word of God and follow His commandments, you will be blessed and will flourish in all that you do. The Lord will cloth you with the garment of righteousness and you will excel in life for the glory of God. Your life will be prosperous just like the plants that grow at the side of the waters.
In order to have a prosperous life, you need to have a close communion with the Lord. God says in the book of Revelations 3:16, “So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth”. The word Lukewarm means, something that is neither cold nor hot. A Lukewarm person will not have a close connection with the Lord. When you do not have a close fellowship with the Lord, you may tend to go away from His presence. You need to be like the plant at the waterside, giving fruits in its season. When you stay in close fellowship with the Lord, you will experience His divine protection and His peace. You will be prosperous all the days of your life.
Have a close fellowship with the Lord. He will perform miracles in your life. Always have a practice of thanking the Lord in all your situations. The Lord will bless you abundantly.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I submit these dear children into Your loving hands Lord Jesus. Isaiah 44:3 says, “I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, and My blessing on your offspring.” Thank You Lord for You are going to pour out Your spirit upon them. May You forgive them the days when they went away from You Lord. I pray that You may draw them closer to You by Your loving Kindness. May You fulfill the desires of their heart and prosper them in every aspect of their lives. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
Dearly beloved 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 for you today is from the book of Psalm 16:5 says, “You O LORD are the portion of my inheritance and my cup. You maintain my lot”. Portion of my cup means, “My fortune” The Psalmist David , totally depended upon God for all his needs. He considers, having God in his life, as the greatest fortune.
David himself says, that he has acquired a good inheritance from God. He also claims that the boundary lines of his territory have fallen for him in pleasant places. Therefore David exalts God as quoted by Shulamite in Songs of Solomon 5:10, “My Beloved is white and ruddy, chief among ten thousands. Anything that comes from an extraordinary person will always be something wonderful. Our Father in heaven is an extraordinary God. And what comes from an extraordinary God will always, be excellent, marvellous, and wonderful. A person can be identified, how good or how bad he is by the friends he mingles with. He usually adapts the nature and characteristic of his close associate. Likewise if we have good acquaintance with God or have an intimate relationship with God then we will also be like Him in our nature. Our characteristics will also change like that of our heavenly father. When such a God blesses his children, He will give the best. He will not give that which is blemished but that which is good. Hereafter the Lord will give you all things that are superb, that are excellent and best in your life.
Psalm 16:5says, “Lord You are the portion of my inheritance”. Today make God your wealth, your good portion in your life. Don’t worry whether you have wealth or not because you have God as the portion of your inheritance. God who gives that which is best has become your wealth in such a case you won’t lack anything. He is a God who gives you wealth. Isaiah 48:17 says, “The holy God of Israel, the LORD who saves you, says: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.” Such a God has become your portion. Then you can obtain whatever you expect from him. The God of wonders is within you. And so you have a great wealth that you could not afford to lose it. He is Jesus Christ. You might have lost your house or your job, or all that you consider as wealth. But you have not lost the one who grants all the wealth. If God is with you then you are blessed. In case God is not with you then your conscience would be spoilt, and your days would have come to an end. But when you have begun to search for God, that itself is an indication that God is within you. He is your wealth He is your portion, as long as you have not lost Him. Since God is within you it is possible for you to get all that you desire in life. With God in your life, all things are possible.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I pray that You may bless Your dear children. Lord, as they continue to read Your word every day, may You shape them to become a perfect vessel for Your glory. Help them to inherit You as their wealth in their lives. In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
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 Deuteronomy 11:11,12, ‘the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water of the rain of heaven: A land which the LORD thy God cares for the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above passage we learn that God is about to take you into the New Year 2020, with all the blessings of God. May be in the bygone years you would have gone through many disappointments, loss and failures, but in the coming New Year God is taking you to a (land) filled with valleys and hills which means you are about to enter into a year of blessing. Because the Lord says, “’ I have come to seek that which was lost.” Hence He will recover all that you have lost in your life, in the New Year with a double portion of blessing for I know that Jesus Christ is one who does, what He says for God is the strength of Israel, who will not lie, nor relent.
Give thanks unto the Lord for the New Year that is to come. Try to hold on to Jesus and walk along with Him throughout this new year. And the Lord will be pleased with you if you walk along with Him. Many whom you trusted might have deserted you, but God will neither leave you nor forget you. So leaving behind all bad habits follow Jesus. The New Year will be like a land filled with hills and valleys with plenty of rain and water which indicates God’s blessing. The more the land is covered with mountains and hills the more you have the protection of God. In the New Year the protection of God will be upon you and your family as never before. The Hills are a symbol of freshness and greenery in your life. Just as Jerusalem is surrounded with mountains God’s
favour and mercy will surround you and your family in the coming year. The word of God says, For those who fear God, He will descend upon you and encamp around you, and will protect you. As a wall of fire until this day you would have incurred great loss and suffered many problems, in your life. But God who changes all situations will change all your sorrows into joy and comfort you on every side.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, The worldly security like, Black Cats, Z Security, may be temporary but Godly security will be eternal. Hold on to the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Rock, Fortress, Deliverer, Strength and Refuge for all those who trust Him. Enter into the New Year, holding on to Jesus for He says, “I will keep you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with my hands.”Yes Jesus will protect you from all danger and harm that is to come in the New Year. God promises to protect not only you, but also your children and grandchildren, wherever they may be placed. His arm embraces and protects. His hand wipes your tears. His righteous right hand will hold you and lead you all through the New Year. So move along with Him into the land you have inherited, with Hills and Valleys.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Until this day, you might have lived in parched and sun scorched land. But hereafter you are going to possess a land with rich greenery. God will eradicate all your poverish state of life and will settle you in a large fertile land flowing with milk and honey. A river of prosperity will flow into your life, your house, and into your family. One who opens the door that no man can shut will open the rivers of blessing . So your house will be filled with new wine, oil, wealth income, anointing and all the barriers that stand as a blockade from flowing will be broken. All yoke will be torn apart. Just as the land of Canaan drew water from within and supplied water to all the territories, you will be able to save from your income, for you and your children. God is removing all poverty and there’s going to be plenteous in the
New Year. God will bless the work of your hand and you will lend to others and not borrow.
The Lord cares for you. Last year you were so worried that no one cared for you. But there is one who cares for you, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ. There was no one to inquire about your welfare, but this year God will provide people to inquire and console and comfort you. He is mindful of you and so he will set people for you. He met the man who sat beside the pool at Bethesda for someone to help him for 38 long years but Christ came forward to help him. He said, “’ Rise up and walk” and He immediately began to walk. God remembers to meet all your needs and reward you richly.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Finally God says, that His eyes are upon you from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Just as the eyes of God were upon the people Israel, He will keep His eyes upon you and lead you in to the land flowing with milk and Honey. When His eyes are upon you then no satan can have a hold on you. You shall receive deliverance from all works of the evil spirit. This New Year will be a Year of Deliverance. Those who ran behind worldly things will in future run after God and His Glory.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for helping us enter into the New Year. Teach us to hold on to Jesus and follow His good steps. Keep us safe from all danger and harm. Help us to inherit the blessings of God. Thank you for leading us into the land of Hills and Valleys flowing with water and a land ever fresh and greenery.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
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 Exodus 6:6 , “ I will rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgement.”
From the above context we come to understand that our God is a Righteous Judge. God will not only provide house for the desolate but also deliver them from bondages that they are caught up with. Some of you might have been caught in debts, in some unwanted issues. Or may be in some sinful activity. God is going to deliver all of you from such issues. In the Bible we read about a widow who was caught up with huge debt. God delivered her and her sons. And she was relieved from her bondage.
One day certain woman of the wives of a prophet, cried out to Prophet Elisha, saying that her husband was dead, and that he was a man who feared the Lord. But he had left behind a huge debt which she could not repay. And the creditor was demanding her two sons to work with him as slaves. As compensation for the debts incurred by her husband. The woman was much troubled in heart so she cried out to the Prophet. So Elisha said to her, what shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house? And she said, “Your maid servant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.”Then he said to her, “Go borrow empty vessels from all your neighbours, as many as you can. And when you have gathered them go into your room you and your sons and shut the door from behind. Then pour the oil that you have, into all the empty vessels, and set aside all the full ones.”She did as the Prophet Elisha had said.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, when the vessels were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “There is no other vessel” So the oil ceased from flowing. Then she went and told the man of God, that she had filled in all the vessels. And the Prophet said to her, “Go sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons live with the rest.” So the woman paid her creditors and lived in peace with her sons thereafter. Thus God delivered the woman and her sons from their bondage.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Are you in bondage? Have you been caught up with huge debt, or you involved in court case or have you been harassed by someone? Are you suffering from incurable disease? What is your problem that you are facing right at this point of time? Doesn’t worry, God will descend from His Holy Mountain to help you and deliver you from your bondage. Jesus said, “My judgement is just.” Righteousness and Justice are the foundations of God’s throne. So God will do justice to you also as he has promised. For He is the Rock, His work is perfect, For all His ways are justice. A God of truth, and without injustice. Righteous and upright is He. When we have such a God why worry. Take your problems before the Lord in prayer and He will cause you to be victorious in life. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank you for telling us from the scripture, how God rescued the woman in bondage. Teach us to be depend upon God for all our needs. May we not get trapped, in any unwanted issues? Prevent us from being caught up in bondages. Deliver us from all unrighteousness and help us to be just and honest in our lives.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, 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 Deuteronomy 23:5 “, Nevertheless the Lord thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee because the Lord Your God Loves You.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand that our God loved Israel. Those whom the Lord loves are blessed. Hence the Lord turns the curse into a blessing through the very mouth of Balaam. For both the tribes Ammonite and Moabites had not met the children of Israel with bread and water while they were on their way to Canaan the promised Land. Balak hired Balaam to curse the people because whatever He spoke was wonder struck. The Lord over ruled his tongue and put such words into his mouth in such a manner that instead of cursing he blessed Israel.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God delighted in David and wished to set him on the throne, of Israel because the Lord loved Israel for ever. He made him King of Israel to do justice and righteousness. The Bible says, When Israel was a youth I loved him. And out of Egypt, I called My son. Because God loved Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the fathers of Israel, he set his love on their descendants too after them.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, the Psalmist says, God shall choose our inheritance for us. So we submit our will, our choice, our desire wholly to Him. Our Heritage here and hereafter, we leave to Him. Let the Lord do with us as seems Him good. The Excellency of Jacob whom he loved, He divided their portion according to their tribes. God was the glory of Israel. He loved His people, and became their greatest glory. God loves us and He shall be our exceeding joy. As for the latter days, may our portion be in the Lord Jesus Christ. Our beauty, our best treasure, lies in having such a God to love us.
My Dear brothers and Sisters, Love is a fundamental part of God’s nature. We are able to love Him or anyone else because He first loved us. God expects us to love Him with our whole heart and from our whole soul, and from our whole mind, and from our whole strength. In fact God wants us to love Him with our whole being. God is love and He became a man, Jesus Christ. When we receive the Lord Jesus Christ We receive all that He is into our spirit. The good news for us is that we can turn our hearts to Him as He is in our spirit. God commanded us to love Him absolutely. Our Love for God actually originates from God Himself. It comes from His love within us which is higher than anything we can generate.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Have you tasted that the Lord is good? If not taste and see that the Lord is good. Feel the kindness of God in your life and His love for mankind. Evidence of God’s love is all around you in the beauty of sunshine, the kindness of a friend. Receive Christ into your life and trust Him as your Saviour. God shows His love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we are grateful to you for the Love you have displayed on the cross of Calvary. Help us to love You with all of our soul, heart, mind and strength. Teach us to love Him with pure love. May we make the Lord the treasure of our life. Let God be our exceeding joy in our life.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
