Your Beginning May Be Small - Bro. T. Stephen

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. On this day July 13th it is a great pleasure to meet through this auspicious message. Ok let’s see what auspicious word the Lord has kept for you today. Take with me from the book of Job, 8:7, “Though your beginning was small, yet your latter end, would increase abundantly.”

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Many of you are sitting this early morning and thinking that your life has begun with a small beginning, and you seem to be saying, Well I am trailing in this manner. There doesn’t seem to be any progress in my life. I feel as if I am standing in the same position for the past five years. I never got an increment for the past ten years. I have been living in a rented house for the past fifteen years. I have been in poverty for the last eight years. Many of you are saying like this, this morning. And are crying over your situation. And are engaged in deep thinking. God looks at you and says, “ Don’t worry, Your beginning will be small but your end will increase abundantly. “ In case you are experiencing a stagnant position for a very long period, then the Lord will suddenly start increasing you and make you grow in abundance at a good speed.

If you see the life of David, he was tending his fathers sheep for a very long period. That was a small beginning. But a particular time when the Lord anointed him, he began to increase quickly and became greater and greater. He was a warrior, then he became the captain of the army and later he was anointed and he rose to the position of a king. His beginning was very small. Everyone despised him. Even His father too despised him as he was just a shepherd. He used David only to carry food for his brothers who were in the army. Even his brothers were all against him. They too despised him. They almost chased him saying, “Why are you standing here go away from here, go home they said.” But David took no notice of them all. He never cared or bothered about all their comments .It was a small beginning. That is why the Lord increased his latter part of his life. God blessed him abundantly. So who could despite their small beginning. One who does not despise their small beginning, God blesses them abundantly. God will give a perfect increase in your life. Therefore ask God to open a small beginning in your life. Some will ask God for big things. You should never say, “I will go only if something big happens in my life.” I am saying this as per this verse.

Never think this is better than that, and go after that. Once a brother said, “Brother I am not getting a job anywhere. Wherever I go, they keep chasing me.”Then I told him, “Even if you get a small offer, join.”But he replied. “No uncle no one will respect me if I take up such menial job after getting sound education.” Then I told him, Whether others respect you or not, the Lord will respect you. So I told him never to despise a small beginning. Ask God to give you some job. Some will say, “Its ok, as long as I am doing something at least I got this. ” This is a good thought. This is a small beginning. Never think that you should get something big to take up a job. God has said, if you are honest in small things I will make you have authority over many things. So you will also apply this logic in your life. You will put this formula in practice. Then God will help me to see you stand in abundance and in perfection.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, we thank you. Lord today You have given us good advice through your auspicious words. Not to mess up the humble beginnings, or despise the small beginnings. You said that the beginning is small, but the end will be perfect. For those children who don’t even have such a small beginning, Lord you provide them today itself a small beginning. And for those who say that they are running for a long time with a small beginning. Then help them to see a life of abundance. Show Favor to them that they may reach great height rapidly. In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
