February 7, 2025
Beloved children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you on this blessed day, February 7th, through this daily auspicious message. May God bless you abundantly.
Today’s auspicious word that you have been expecting is from 1 Kings 3:13: “And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches and honour.”
These were the words spoken by God to Solomon. Solomon had sacrificed offerings before the Lord, and through his sincere prayer, he pleased God. The Lord appeared to him and asked, “What do you want?” Solomon did not ask for silver, gold, or palaces. Instead, he humbled himself and said, “Lord, I am young. You have entrusted me with the responsibility of leading Your people. Grant me an understanding heart to discern between good and evil.”
In essence, Solomon sought wisdom—something righteous in the eyes of God—not for his own benefit but for the sake of others. He prioritized the needs of God’s kingdom over personal gain. The Bible reveals a divine principle: “Always when we ask for what is above, we also receive what is below.” But many of us do the opposite—we hold tightly to earthly desires while neglecting spiritual riches. As a result, we struggle and suffer.
God was pleased with Solomon’s request because it was for the welfare of others. The Lord responded, “What you have asked is good. Since you have sought wisdom for the sake of my people, I will not only grant you wisdom, but I will also give you riches, honour, name, and fame. No king shall be like you all your days.”
A Lesson for Us Today
What decision should we make this morning?
Let us seek the things that are above, and God will freely give us the things of this world as well. As the Bible says in Matthew 6:33, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” When you seek these heavenly virtues, your weaknesses will disappear, and worldly blessings—riches, honour, and success—will follow.
A Powerful Testimony
Sister Anitha from Ramanathapuram, Coimbatore. “I had a medical shop but suffered a great financial loss, which left me burdened with enormous debt. I was humiliated by many, and some even told me that it would be better to die than to live in such disgrace. I was in deep agony. During that time, Brother Stephen visited the God’s Love Prayer Centre in Coimbatore and shared the Word of God. I attended the meeting and, at the end, received individual prayer from him. I did not tell Brother anything about my financial struggles, yet he prayed for me and said, ‘Daughter, you have come with a heavy burden of debt, but do not worry—the Lord will close it for you.’
From that moment, by God’s grace, doors began to open. One by one, my debts were miraculously cleared. Not only did the Lord deliver me from debt, but He also blessed me with my own land in Coimbatore—something I had never even asked for! May the name of the Lord be glorified!” See how God not only removed her debt but also gave her a greater blessing! He will do the same for you.
A Prayer for You
Loving Lord, we thank You. Your Word says, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” I pray for my children who are struggling with poverty, debt, and humiliation. May they take hold of this divine principle, put it into action, and receive not only spiritual wisdom but also the riches, honour, and blessings that they never even asked for. Let them live in peace and abundance. I wholeheartedly bless them in Your mighty name. Amen.
