Open Heavens Saturday September 5: Shine In Prosperity

Memorise: Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort zion, and shall yet choose jerusalem. Zechariah 1:17. 

While it is true that the Lord expects us to shine in the areas of our character and soul-winning, He also expects us to shine in the area of prosperity. No wonder He gave us great promises on the prosperity, such as this found in the Deuteronomy 28:12:
“The  LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations and thou shalt not borrow.”
Read: Deuteronomy 28:9-13 

Message:
Poverty is one of the repercussions of sin; hence there is so much poverty across the globe. God is not happy with the level of poverty in the world, this is why He has chosen to make his children prosper and set them as lights that will wipe out the darkness of poverty from nations {plsam 35:27}.

If you have been blessed by God but have not reached the level where you can lend to nations, it shows that you have not yet arrived at the of prosperity God is taking you to.

Because of your current lowly situation, you may find it hard to believe that God can truly increase you to this high level, but the truth about God's integrity is that if He has promised to do it, He will definitely keep his promise, provided you do your part.

Concerning where God is taking you to, you would be wise to always remember that your present situation does not matter.

God destination for you is quite different from where you are now. Your present location cannot stop God from taking you to the destination He has for you. He's a God who can relocate a beggar from dung hill to sit with prince   and nobles {1 Samuel 2:8}.

David was just a shepard boy attending to his father's little flock, but when God decide to move him into greatness, his humble circumstance did did not stop God.

The young shepard boy become king according to God's promise {2 Samuel 7:8}. God did the same for Joseph. Joseph had a dream, but he also had very determined dream-killer as brothers.

They sold him into slavery, and a point he was a prisoner. In spite of all these, he rose from prison to become prime minister of Egypt {psalm 105:17-22}. You too are destined to be great! Your present challenges or limitations cannot stop you from becoming what God has ordained you to be. You shall be great! Nothing will stop you. No one can stop you. It is well with your tomorrow.

Prayer Point:
Father, make a statement on prosperity to the world with my life and family...Amen

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

Can you ruin your destiny?

God had something in mind when He created you, right? But what if you’ve screwed up? Dropped out? Quit before it was over? Maybe you decided to do your own thing, it didn’t work out, and now you’re just sucking air and hoping there’s still hope. Guess what? There is! For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. (Romans 11:29 NLT) You don’t even have to start over. Every single thing you failed at? God will use it. (Romans 8:28) Every shot you called that was way off? God will repurpose it. (Proverbs 19:21) Every weakness you thought you had to hide? God’s power will show through it. (2 Corinthians 12:9) God created you for good works. As soon as you quit the past and sell out for Jesus, those works will happen. (Ephesians 2:10) He’s establishing you, step by step. (Proverbs 16:9) God’s a good Father. He knows how to bring you back and take you further than you ever imagined. (Ephesians 3:20) Spend some time really reflecting on these truths. What do you secretly hope is p...
