My dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May the name of the Lord be glorified. Let’s take the Word from Zechariah 2:10, “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for behold, I am coming, and I will dwell in your midst,” says the Lord.
My dear brothers and sisters, this Word is not spoken by a man, but by God: “I will come and dwell in your midst,” says the Lord. That means, God has come into your life. He has come into your business, your ministry, your education, and your family. The moment God enters your life, there will be great peace. If God enters your family, all confusion will cease. The confusion in your business, ministry, or education will be cleared because when God comes, everything will be fine. There will be significant changes.
On that day, when the Lord entered the house of Zacchaeus, everything changed. Zacchaeus experienced a transformation in his character. Similarly, when God says He is coming into your life, firstly, your household will experience redemption. Those who haven’t been saved will be saved. There will be a great change in mindset and character. Is there someone whose character needs to change in your life? Is it your husband, your wife, your son, your daughter-in-law, or your grandchildren? Commit them into the hands of the Lord. Pray, “Lord, come inside my children, come into the lives of my grandchildren, come into my business, and my ministry.” When God comes into your life, there will be no more storms. God will cancel all the weapons formed against you.
It is enough if God comes into your life. All the evil spirits will flee. The spirit that disturbs your sleep, the spirit of failure, the spirit of misery will run away because God has come as a rich and powerful King. Before we pray with faith, I would like to share another testimony from someone who watches the Mangala Vaarthai program. Sister Amudha from Erode shared, “My daughter is in 12th grade but had refused to go to school for the past few days. She had become very stubborn, though she was a good girl. At this time, I had been watching the Mangala Vaarthai program given by Brother Stephen. One morning, my daughter also watched it. Brother Stephen’s prayer brought a great change in her. From that day onward, she went to school with great interest. This is a joyful testimony! She was once reluctant to go to school, causing a burden for everyone. But after watching Mangala Vaarthai just once, she completely changed. She began going to school happily without anyone compelling her. She is now regularly attending school, studying well, and preparing for her public exams. My heart rejoices with joy!” says Sister Amudha.
This is a good testimony of how God can bring transformation. God says, “I will come and live in the midst of you.” The Lord who dwelt with this young girl through His powerful Word will come today into the life of the person you desire Him to. God will come and do great things for them.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank You. I pray for all the children in the name of Jesus. Lord, You have said You will come and dwell in the midst of Your children. For those watching this program from every house, business center, place of ministry, and family, Lord, come and dwell in their midst. Change all things that come against Your children. May everything be in favor of them, and may all things work together for their good.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
