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 Psalms 118:8, 9, “It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence, in man. It is better to put your trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand that, we need to put our confidence in God rather than man or princes. It is better in all ways, to trust in the Lord rather than man, for it is wiser. It is much safer to trust in God. For God is more likely to help, than man. And therefore it is better to put our confidence in God rather than man. If we rely upon mortal man, our confidence in him will be futile, but we are always secure in the hands of our God. If we trust in man it tends to make us mean and dependent but confidence in God elevates, produces a sacred quiet of spirit and sanctifies the soul. The Bible says, it is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes. For princes are but men and the best of men are poor creatures. In many troubles they cannot help us in the least degree for instance in sickness, bereavement, or death neither can they assist us in reference to our eternal state.
Our God is one who fills the empty space of your life. The Bible says, No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. You must therefore set your faith upon the Lord. The only remedy to heal your children is to have strong faith in God. The only person whom you can believe is Jesus Christ.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, It is better to put your trust in the Lord than to put your confidence in man or princes. So today you bring all your problems before the Lord. Be it your husband or that of your children. Bring it to the Lord, for He cares for you. When you bring your problem before the Lord then it becomes the burden of the Lord. It becomes his responsibility to heal or to bring deliverance to your children. A mother once told me of how her son had been caught up in a critical situation and only when the Lord intervened the Lord solved his entire problem. God who removes the kings, and raises up new kings and appoints judges in favour of His children completely changed his situation and now he is a great blessing and is currently the back bone of our ministry. Halleluiah! Therefore cast your entire burden upon the Lord for He will sustain you. Submit yourselves in the mighty hand of the Lord and He will exalt you in due season. God Bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Help my children to cast their burden upon you and trust for your provision. You are able to exalt any one and I pray that you will exalt my children who are yearning for a blessing in their 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 Isaiah 43: 18, “Do not remember the former things. Nor consider the things of old.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above context we understand that God does not want the people of Israel to remember the former things. Although their former deliverance out of Egypt was the most glorious work, which they ought to remember always and consider. But God did not want them to remember their captivity in Babylon for nearly seventy years.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, the Babylonian exile was a period in the history of ancient Israel. The Babylonian captivity and the seventy year captivity of the Jews have become important in the Jewish History. The majority of the Jewish people were eventually exiled to Babylon. And were kept in captivity there for a number of decades.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God does not want His people to remember their captivity, pain agony, and also their tribulation that they endured during the period of Exile. God is telling prophet Isaiah “Do not call to mind the former things or ponder things of the past. He is literally saying that we are to receive God’s forgiveness. And look ahead to our future.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, We all have a past and some things are not, so good. Therefore we need to ask God for forgiveness, learn from our past mistakes and make amends if at all possible with the one we hurt and look forward to the new things the Lord will do in our lives. The Bible shows how God used the least likely people to do some of the most amazing things for Him. If God used people like king David, who was an ordinary shepherd boy, why not us?
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Jesus died on the cross for you and me. And once we believe Him as our saviour, we are new creatures, in Him. Apostle Paul says, “I have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me, and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God. ”
Therefore My Dear Brothers and Sisters, fix your eyes on Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. May God help you to release all your past memories, that keep worrying or troubling you and disturbs your peace, and harmony.
God does not, want you to go through life, looking in the rear view mirror. It’s time for you to look ahead and focus on what is before us. God wants to do a new thing in our lives. He wants us to rise up to our full potential in Him. The Lord has called us to do mighty things, for He will make a road way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Therefore we need to keep on moving forward. It is only in moving forward that we accomplish what God has called us to do. We cannot stay where we are, nor can we go backward. The only direction we can go is forward. So let’s move on and keep our eyes focused on God and grow. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for reminding us that we should not remember the past and brood over the bad happenings, but move on forward. Help us to be focused on the goals that is set before us. Make us to realize the responsibility that God has given for us and thus fulfil the plan and purpose of God in our 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 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 all 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 44:3-4, “For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, And My blessing on your offspring; They will spring up among the grass Like willows by the watercourses.” The Lord says that you shall grow like the willows and will be prosperous.
You might have been lagging in many aspects of life. Henceforth, you shall lack no good thing. You will grow and increase day-by-day. We see in the book of Psalms 33:9, “For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast”. You might have been stuck in a lot of debts not knowing how to overcome it. The Lord our God, is able to bring you out of all your debts. Just trust in the Lord for He is your provider. God says that He is going to clear all your debts and is going to set you free. Believe and claim these words. The first portion of Isaiah 44:3 says, “I will pour water on him who is thirsty”. God meets their needs and performs mighty miracles.
The next thing that the Lord tells is that He will pour out His spirit upon your descendants. Descendants mean your children and your children’s children. Many of the parents may say that your children are going through depression. You are worried that they might take some wrong decision and might be wondering if they can be delivered from such problems. The book of 1 Corinthians 13:10 says, “But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away”. When you pray to the Lord and ask for His guidance, He will take control over them and everything will be set right. God will uproot your children from all their wrong doings and they will be a crown of glory.
Until this day, the children might have been engaged in all sorts of wrong doings and might have caused great pain and agony to the parents. Their behavior might have also brought much shame to the entire family. Today, the God tells you that from this day on, you shall see a change in their behavior and they shall bring great name and fame to you and your family. My dearly beloved, believe and receive this blessing. Your children shall bring great honor to you.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank and praise You for this blessed day. Lord, all these days Your children have been thirsting for Your blessings. You know the pain and agony that they have been going through. I pray that You may put an end to the days of sorrow in their lives and make them to rejoice in everything. Father, may You grant them the grace to submit themselves into Your loving hands of protection, so that You will be able to lift them up. 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 2 Kings 3:18 , “You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water. So that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters from the above context, we come to understand that God performed miracle for His people when they were facing a severe crisis. When king Ahab Of Israel died, Mesha, the king of Moab, rebelled against the king of Israel. Three kings namely Jehoram, Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom went against Mesha, king of Moab. They marched on the roundabout route for seven days. At that time, there was no water, for the army nor for the animals, that followed them. So they decided to inquire of the Lord. They found the prophet Elisha, the son of Shaphat. Elisha called for a musician. And when he played, the hand of the Lord came upon him and said, “Make this valley full of ditches”. For the Lord says, “You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink. God also promised to deliver them from the hands of the Moabites.
“My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Our God is a promise keeping God. He does what He says. Next morning when they offered the grain offering, suddenly they found the water gushing by way of Edom. And the land was filled with water. When the enemies, the Moabites, saw the water gushing out over the land, they saw the water like blood shining in the bright sun light. On seeing the blood like water, they came to a conclusion, that the three kings struck one another, and were all killed. So when the Moabites came against the Israelites, Israel rose up and attacked the Moabites. The Israelites empowered the Moabites, and they entered their land, killing the Moabites. Then they destroyed their cities, they cut down all the good trees, and they stopped up all the springs of water. Therefore Mesha the king of Moab saw that the battle was too fierce, for him to face, and having failed in his attempt to seize Israel, offered his eldest son as a burnt offering and returned to their own land.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Thus we see that God punishes severely all those who come against God’s children. Goliath came against the Israelites but he was killed by David. Likewise when the king of Moab came against the people of Israel, God stood on behalf of them and protected them. Even though there was no wind or rain yet God filled the valleys, with sufficient water, so that the three kings could provide water for their army and cattle. He is a God of miracle.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God will perform miracles in your life too. Nothing is too hard for the Lord to perform. All things are possible to them that believe in His name. Jesus Christ did many mighty miracles during His times, and even mighty miracles were wrought by the hands of the apostles. God who is the same yesterday, today and forever is able to perform miracles for you even today. You too might be facing a lot of problems , may be due to your children or because of your physical ailment or due to financial deficit. You are not able to manage your family, but I tell you that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think or pray if you approach Him whole heartedly. For God will deliver the needy when he cries, the poor also and him who has no helper. God will redeem their life from oppression and violence. God will rescue you from your enemies. He remembers you in your lowly state. Trust in God. He will perfect all things concerning you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank You Lord for your strong support to your children. We thank you for your eyes that move throughout the earth, to behold those whose heart is loyal to you. Teach us to put our trust in You Oh Lord. Make us to be honest in all our dealings. Because a faithful man abounds with blessing. Help us to be always reverent to you.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
