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 you today is from the book of Isaiah 44:28, “who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please”. Today, God is going to perform wonders in your life.
King Cyrus was not a believer but he loved the Lord and did all that pleased Him. He was a king with a good heart and feared the Lord. God himself testified saying, “Cyrus is a good king who does all that pleases me”. God does not see your religion or caste. He sees your heart. King Cyrus did all that the Lord wanted him to do.
We see in the book of Isaiah 45:1, “This is what the Lord says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut”. The Lord has kept all the people under His control so that they would be of no hindrance to King Cyrus. As King Cyrus did all that pleased the Lord, God hedged him so that no one else would rise against him.
God says, “I am going to open the door that can never be shut.” God says that He is going to open a door for your ministries, for your job and even for your business. You may think that all the doors in your life have been closed and your life has been shattered. Do not be perplexed. The Lord who blessed King Cyrus is going to take hold of your hand and break the doors that are set before you. He is going to open the door of treasures and is going to prosper you.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for the blessed word that You have given us today. Father, we thank You for You are going to bless our nation with Your anointed leaders and break all the closed doors that have been set before us. Let Your will alone be done. 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 1 Corinthians 3:6, “I planted, Apollos watered, But God gave the increase.’’
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, According to this verse Paul admits that God honoured him firstly to preach the gospel both to the Jews and to the gentiles. And to convert them to Christians. Then Paul encouraged Apollos a fellow brother in Christ to stay behind, and so he watered what Apostle Paul had planted. This means that Apollos helped the believers to grow in the Lord, whom Paul had converted and gathered them into the assembly, by daily preaching the gospel amongst them.
Apollos was a means of help to Apostle Paul in building up the church in faith and holiness. But God increased not only the number of members in the gathering but also to increase in faith and in the knowledge of God. Thus through the power of God, Apollos was able to bring forth fruit. This means that His ministry was blessed for edification. He was a means of carrying on the superstructure and of building up souls in faith and holiness and of making them fruitful in every good work. This explanation is drawn from planters or gardeners. They may put his plants into the earth and water them regularly but they cannot cause them to grow. This is a divine blessing, for all the success is from the Lord. God only causes it to spring up and grow, it is He that gives it, its increasing, spreading, fructifying, virtue and efficacy.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, to be a successful gardener, he needs good wisdom, understanding and adequate knowledge to grow his plants, and bring forth fruit in its season. The gardener should know how to procure seeds, irrigate plantation and protect the plants from pests, by using pesticides and clearing away unwanted weeds that obstruct plants from growing lush green. In the same manner, Wisdom and understanding is essential for all walks of people to grow wealthy. God expects that all should prosper in all things and be in health just as your soul prospers. One who retains wisdom obtains riches and honour and length of days. For the wise shall inherit glory.
God bless you.
Prayer :
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord we thank You for Apostle Paul and Apollos who were instruments to spread the Gospel of Christ. We also thank you for all his writings that teach us to be holy and perfect in our life. Thank you Lord for making him a good model to us that we may imitate Christ through his teachings.
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 Proverbs 2:6, ” For the Lord gives wisdom. From His mouth come knowledge and understanding”.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, From the above verse we understand that it is God who gives wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Today many youngsters for lack of wisdom and understanding have failed to do what is right. Instead of loving their parents who have nurtured them and grown them with all the best they could, they run after wrong relationship. Job says, “I have made a covenant with my eyes, why then should I look upon a young woman.”But many youngsters have almost ruined their lives. They even go to the extent of committing suicide.
They forget God, who gives them wisdom and understanding. They set their eyes on vain things. David says, “Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things.’’ They lose track of themselves. They fail to ask God for wisdom, instead they lean on their own understanding. They fail to acknowledge God who is willing to direct their paths.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, If you have wisdom then your life will be many. When you walk, your steps will not be hindered and when you run, you will not stumble. In case there is a spirit of depression or deception in any members of your family, then the Lord will remove all such evil spirit that play havoc in their lives, and God will cause them to overcome depression and grant them peace, calmness, serenity and deliverance from such evil clutches. God will redeem them and set them free. Some of you who are doing business, for lack of wisdom have incurred great loss in your business, but God will give you wisdom and understanding and thus help you to make a big profit. Remember that wisdom and understanding gives length of days, riches and honour. Wisdom helps you to be prudent. Those who seek wisdom will find it. For it causes them to inherit wealth in order to fill their treasures. Money is a shelter to many but wisdom preserves those who have it. But to obtain wisdom you must fear the Lord. For the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Thank
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 Luke 13:11-13, “And a woman was there who had been crippled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not straighten up at all. When Jesus saw her, he called her forward and said to her, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” Then he put his hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and praised God.
This woman was suffering from this infirmity for eighteen long years. Due to her infirmity, she was unable to look up straight. Why did this sickness come upon her? There are many reasons for a sickness. One of the cause is because of certain sins that they do. Some people fall sick due to some family curses. God permits sickness to some people to test their faith. Once their period of testing comes to an end, God will give them double strength and will sustain them. They do not have to be worried about that. The other is because of the spirit of sickness that affects a person. Such was the case of this woman. She was affected by the spirit of sickness that brought infirmity. The children of God must understand the reason for their sickness. There is a gift called the Spirit of discernment that the Lord is willing to give you today. When a person falls sick, you must be able to understand the cause and try to remove the reason of the sickness.
In the above bible portion, God understood the reason for her sickness and so God said, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” As soon as God said this, the spirit of infirmity left her and her back straightened and she could walk straight.
My dearly beloved, the Lord will reveal to you the cause of your sickness. If you are suffering from any such sickness, just stretch your hands out to the Lord and say, “Lord! please forgive all the sins of my forefathers and deliver me from my sickness.” Then the Lord will set you free from your sickness. Today is the day of your miracle. There is nothing that God cannot do.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. My children have been suffering from various diseases. They have tried various medications yet not healed. Lord, I pray that You may have mercy upon them and forgive the sins of their forefathers or even if it is their own sins. I pray that they may receive healing in the name of Jesus. Father, deliver them from all their problems. Be with them and bless them. 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 Mark 10:47- 49, “When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.”
Today, I would like to introduce to you a person who respects and helps the beggars and the poor people whom others make fun of. He is my Lord Jesus Christ. He is willing to bless all the people of this Earth. Lord Jesus came to this Earth to help humanity. He came to do good things for them. Have a close relationship with Him. You will be able to taste and see that He is good.
2000 years back, Jesus was going to a place for His ministry. On His way, He saw a blind man who was begging. He had to stretch his hands for money just to fill his stomach. Many people humiliated him. Just to fill His stomach, he tolerated every humiliation. He tried all possible medication for his eyesight but was not healed. At that time, some people told about Jesus to this blind man. They said that he could taste the Lord for he was doing good things for all the people. If only he could get an opportunity to see Jesus, then he would be healed from his sickness. At that time, he heard that Jesus was passing through that way. He was crying out saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy upon me.” The people told him to be quiet. But he called out to Jesus even louder. Jesus heard and stood there as He respected his voice. Jesus stood still and called for him. So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him. The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.” “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.
My dear children of God, do not lose this opportunity that the Lord has given for you to taste who Jesus is. Jesus is asking you, “What would you want me to do for you! What is it that you want to accomplish through me!” The Lord is telling, “All that you have asked in my name has been granted to you. Be at peace.” Jesus respects each and every move of your heart. He hears every cry of your heart. He is a God who gives answers to your prayers.
Today, the Lord is breaking all your bondage. He is giving you all that you desired for. You do not have to stretch your hands before any human. Jesus says that He will be your provider in all ways. Go with faith for you will see the glory of God.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly father, we thank You for this blessed day. I submit my dear children into Your hands of protection. Lord, You have said that You will be their provider. They will not have to stretch forth their hands to any human for help. Lord, I pray that You may help Your dear children in all their difficulties and bring a breakthrough in their lives. Be with them and bless them In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
