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 11:1, “A shoot shall come out from the stump of Jesse and a branch shall grow out of his roots”. Jesse is the father of King David. Jesus was born in the genealogy of King David.
God says that nobody can take away the blessings that He gives to you and your children. Those who are against you and your children might say that they will take away the blessings that you receive; but the Lord says that He is going to bless you with blessings that no one can take away from you. He is going to bless you with a permanent income, permanent job and a permanent life that no one can take away from you.
The book of Hosea 14:5 says, “I will be like the dew to Israel; He shall grow like the lily, And lengthen his roots like Lebanon”. The Lord will make you and your children to stand firm like the roots of Lebanon. He will plant you in the land and no one shall harm you. You shall be a blessing in the land that the Lord places you in. When a decision is to be made, pray and ask the will of God. Only when you do in accordance to the will of the Lord, you will be able to succeed.
For this, you need to have a steady mind. A steady mind is very important for a person. You or your children might have been in a dilemma in various situations. As a result, you might have had to face a lot of failures in life. Do not be dismayed my dearly beloved, the Lord says that He is going to bless you with a steady mind. He will lead you and your children according to His will. Henceforth, you shall take steady decisions. God will bless you with a steady mind, income, business and even a good life. All you have to do is to obey to the voice of the Lord and you will be blessed in your land.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, I pray that You may give Your children the steady mind to take wise decisions. Teach them to learn to ask Your will in all that they do. Father, may they receive success for the works of their hands. Guide them in the way they should go and may they flourish in the land that You bless them. 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 Ezekiel 36:30 , “I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine.”
The fruit of the trees that grow in gardens, orchards and vineyards such as apples, olives, grapes and pomegranates will grow in plenty such that there will be no want, of anything for man or beast. The Bible says, God causes the grass to grow, for the cattle. And vegetation, for the service of man. That he may bring forth food from the earth. The wine that makes glad the heart of man. Oil to make his face shine, and bread which strengthen man’s heart. How manifold are the works of the Lord. In wisdom, God has made them all. For He has made man a little lower than the angels and has crowned him with glory and honour. He has given man authority to have dominion over the works of His hands. Because the earth is the Lords and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell there in. For God has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
It was the desire of the God that man should abound on the earth and be fruitful and multiply on the earth. The Bible acts as a bridge between man and God. One gains faith by reading the word of God. So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing the word of God. If one has absolute faith in God he will enjoy security and prosperity. Dear children of God it is important to teach our children the importance of depending on the Lord rather than worldly things or have faith on man. Isaac grew in the fear of the Lord. He inherited this nature from his father Abraham, who was called the Father of Faith. So he was content with his wife Rebecca.
He did not expect dowry from his wife or from his father in law Bethuel or his brother in law Laban. The Bible says, Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death through Rebekah. This is how a child of God has to be in his life because godliness with contentment is great gain. Prosperity is based in the mind set of a person. Isaac was able to reap a hundred fold harvest even during the time of famine, just because he was a man of contentment. His heart was pure and blameless before God. Therefore Isaac began to prosper and continued to prosper until he became very prosperous.
My dear brothers and sisters God wants you to prosper in every area of your life and in all the works of your hand. The Lord will open the heavens, the store house of his bounty to send rain in your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. When you honour the Lord with your possession, wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops then your barns will be filled to overflowing and your vats will brim over with new wine. This is prosperity.
God bless you .
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Dear Lord bless my children to prosper in all aspects of their life. They should never be at a loss. Instead they should gain profit in their business, an increase in their income and also bless the work of their hand. Enable them to be successful in their life. 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 you today is from the book of John 21: 4-6, “Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus. He called out to them, “Friends, haven’t you any fish?” No, they answered. He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish”. In this passage, we see that, Jesus goes to meet His friends (disciples).
Peter was one of His disciples. This incident took place after the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus’s friends had been fishing all night but did not get any fish. With compassion towards His friends, Jesus told them to throw their nets towards the right side of the boat. When they obeyed the word of Jesus, they were able to catch a huge amount of fish. Their fishing nets tore as the fishes they caught were surplus. Jesus knew that they would be tired and hungry after having toiled all night. He then decided to prepare some food for them.
Jesus understands what you need even before you ask for it. He knows your heart. He wants to comfort the broken-hearted. God awaits you with compassion, at your doorstep. He is coming to you to give you all that you have lost in life.
The book of Mathew 4:19 says, “Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” When you obey to the voice of God and follow Him, He will make you fishers of men. God has promised that He will never leave you nor forsake you. His grace is sufficient for you my beloved. The Lord says that He is going to bless you the way He blessed Peter. When you listen to the voice of the Lord and invite Him into your hearts, you will prosper in all that your hand finds to do. You shall eat the fruit of your labor and be prosperous.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I pray that You bless Your dear children the way You blessed Peter. Lord, help them to obey to Your words. Father, may they prosper in all their works. May they shine for You wherever they go. 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 Luke 13:11, “ 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.
The Bible says, that she was a woman with a weakness that was brought upon her by an evil spirit, by satan. This disorder had been of a long standing and she had laboured under it for the period of eighteen years. It was considered to be an incurable disease. She was bowed together and could in no wise lift up herself. She could not lift her head up, look up or stand straight. It was a thing utterly impossible. As her body was convulsed.
The woman came seeking for Jesus Christ in the temple. She was desperately in need of deliverance. God gave her deliverance. When the Lord removed all the evil spirit from her body her back straightened and she became healthy. She went away praising and glorifying God.
God wants to give deliverance to you also. He wants to bring about a change in your life also. As you enter into a new year 2019 God desires that his people enter into the new year free from bondage and slavery. To enjoy freedom from bondages keep on praising and thanking God. Draw more close to God. For the past 11 months you might have been moving away from the presence of God. By moving away from God you have been facing only loses, pain ,sickness, prisons, cases, and more of such things. So God wants to draw more close to you.
God wants you to come out of all these struggles. He wants to open new vistas for you in your life. In December three things come to our mind. The birth of Jesus Christ, thanksgiving, and sanctification. These are days of reconciliation with God. Hold on to Jesus as you enter the new year. Then God will compensate all your losses. God will give you life of Cannan. A life flowing with milk and honey. An abundant life.
To receive such a life you need to submit to God. When you sanctify yourself, all the evil spirit will disappear. Sanctification removes all sickness , sinful nature and evil spirit out from you. God will bring deliverance to you as he gave deliverance to the woman with a spirit of infirmity. But when that which is perfect comes, then that which is in part shall be done away.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Dear Lord bless my children. May they enjoy an abundant life. Remove all infirmity from my children and cause them to live in peace and harmony. As the woman went in search of Jesus help my children to seek You and find You as the Lord of their life. 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 Luke 1:28, And having come in, the Angel said to her, “ Rejoice highly favoured, one, The Lord is with you.”Blessed are you among women.”
There are many kinds of greetings and blessing in the Bible. Apostle John while writing a letter to Gaius, addresses him as “beloved Gaius” whom I love in truth. And he blesses him in this manner. “Beloved I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health just as your soul prospers.” He sends a note of personal greetings to Gaius. In the same manner we see how the Angel Gabriel descended from heaven, came down to meet Mary the mother of Jesus, and greets her with words of blessing. During Bible times it was the custom of the people to greet each other. This is in practice even in the recent times. Greetings are an expression of friendly or respectful regards. Greetings is an act of communication in which human beings intentionally make their presence known to each other, to show attention and to suggest a type of relationship or social status between individuals or groups, of people coming in contact with each other.
So Mary in response to the greetings from the Angel says, “What manner of greetings was this?”For she was troubled at heart. But from this, one must understand, that even Angels in heaven are pleased to greet the children of God on the earth. Having met the Angel of God and having been informed about the conception of Elizabeth, immediately Mary hastens to visit her relative Elizabeth and Zachariah. Though Elizabeth was of much age, she was pregnant and had a baby within her womb. The child in her womb was John the Baptist, the forerunner of Jesus Christ. The Bible says, there was no one greater than John who was born of a woman. Mary entered the house of Zachariah and greeted Elizabeth. And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, (who was supposed to be the Mother of the Son of God, Jesus Christ,) said, “When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb, jumped for joy. “And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said to Mary, Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
Likewise we see how the Angel of the Lord greeted Gideon; He said “The Lord is with you, mighty man of valour.” Similarly we see how Boaz , when he returned from Bethlehem greeted the Harvesters. “The Lord be with you.”And they in return answered”, “The Lord bless you.”There was another instance when Jesus was healing the demon, that a certain woman from a crowd called out to Him saying, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.” Thus we see the necessity of greeting others and blessing them too from the depth of our heart.
Hence let us learn to greet and bless each other. God honors the blessed words.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord teach us to greet one another with true love from the depth of our heart. Help us to learn to respect the feelings of others especially those who are in need. Fill our hearts with good spirit and friendly intention. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
