Beloved children of God in Christ,
I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The Bible says in Psalm 65:11, “You crown the year with Your goodness, and Your paths drip with abundance.”
Today, whatever evil has come against you—whatever pain, betrayal, or disappointment you may be facing—the Lord will turn it into good. Just as Joseph said to his brothers, “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good,” God is about to turn every sorrow and every setback in your life into a stepping stone for greater blessings.
You might have woken up today with a heavy heart, wondering why certain people betrayed you, hurt you, or acted unjustly toward you. But remember this truth: if God has allowed it, it is because He is working something beautiful out of it. Instead of being overwhelmed, declare in faith, “This too is for my good.” Even if it seems like a burden today, God is using it to build you, prepare you, and bless you.
From this moment on, let that faith take root in your life. When that mindset settles in, fear will leave you, anxiety will vanish, and boldness will rise. You will no longer say, “Why is this happening to me?” Instead, you will confidently say, “God will bring good out of this.” This is the promise of the Lord: “You crown the year with Your goodness, and Your paths drip with abundance.”
That means, even the path you walk on will overflow with fatness—like ghee, which is costly and precious. In the same way, all the most valuable and priceless blessings will soon flow into your life. You may be crying today, saying, “I have no water, no shelter, no comfort, no income.” But today, the Lord declares, “I will open a new way for you.” He will crown your life with goodness. There will be breakthroughs. There will be blessings. Long-awaited marriages will be arranged. Delays will turn into divine appointments. Even if a proposal was rejected, don’t be disheartened. It is only because God has something better in store for you. Take heart—Jesus Himself will go before you and make it happen.
Testimony:
Sister Pappu from Katpadi, Vellore, wrote a letter asking for prayer for her financial needs and for the completion of her house. Brother Stephen prayed and encouraged her to make a pledge and promised that she would testify for God’s glory. She obediently made a pledge and prayed with faith. Miraculously, all her financial needs were met, and her house was completed without any obstacles.
So today, if you have made a pledge to the Lord, remember to fulfill it. Don’t delay. If you have forgotten it, surrender it to Him now and say, “Lord, help me honor my word.” When we keep our word before God, He will do mighty and marvelous things.
Prayer:
Loving Lord, we thank You for this beautiful promise. “You crown the year with Your goodness; Your paths drip with abundance.” Crown every child reading this with Your goodness. Where there has been evil, replace it with divine favor. Descend into their homes, restore what is broken, and rebuild their lives, their businesses, and their ministries. Let their hands be blessed, and may their paths overflow with heavenly oil. Let them not be borrowers but lenders. May they rise in glory, health, and joy. In Jesus’ Name we pray, Amen.
