January 2, 2025
Beloved Children of God in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am delighted to meet you on this New Year 2025, on this day, January 2nd, through this daily auspicious message. May God bless you abundantly. To those celebrating their birthdays or wedding anniversaries today, I share this promise from Isaiah 51:16: “I have covered you with the shadow of My hand.” According to this verse, may God bless you throughout the year and guide you with His protection and grace.
Today, let us meditate on the auspicious word that God has given us. Take and read Psalm 1:3, “He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.” If you feel like nothing you do prospers—if you face constant failures and are unsure of what to do next—this message is for you. God is looking at you today and saying, “Whatever you do will prosper.” But for this to happen, you must first embrace the Word of God—the Bible.
The Bible is God’s treasure for us—a will, a guide to Heaven, and a source of life. When you read and meditate on it daily, even just a portion, a chapter, or a page, it will guide you. These words of life will speak to you, teach you, and direct you. As the Scripture says, “When you walk, they will guide you; when you sleep, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak to you.” No matter your religion or faith, the Bible is a treasure that must be held close. If you do not own a copy and wish to have one, please contact our office, and we will gladly send it to you free of cost. Read a portion daily before heading to school, college, ministry, work, or business. You will see your matters prosper, your efforts succeed, and failures vanish. Try and see that God is good, and His grace endures forever.
Testimony:
Brother Sunder Reshan from Tanjore shared this testimony:
“My son, Sasi Kumar, was struggling to complete his PhD. I sent a prayer request through mail to Brother Stephen, asking him to pray for my son to successfully complete his viva, receive his doctorate, and find a good job. By the grace of God and Brother Stephen’s prayers, my son victoriously completed his PhD, received his doctorate, and secured a job in a laboratory. Thanks be to God, who made everything prosperous for my son!” See how God sent an auspicious word, and through prayers and the daily reading of the Bible, miracles happened. God can do the same for you.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, we thank You. In the name of Jesus, I greet and bless my children. Lord, You promised that all they do will prosper. Today, I pray for every area of their lives where they have faced failure—let those areas turn into success. Let their studies prosper, Let their jobs prosper, Let their ministries prosper, Let their marriages prosper, Let all their efforts prosper. Lord, I declare that there will be no more failures, only victory after victory. You are Jehovah Nissi, the God of Victory. I entrust my children into Your hands. Lord, do great and mighty things in their lives. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
