God of Increase – Sis. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran
My dear friend, today’s portion is taken from Isaiah 54:3 where the Lord says “You will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.” According to this promise, believe that the Lord is going to expand you and build your life!
Maybe you are having a tough time achieving anything in your life – delay in getting married or in having children or in being fruitful in any area for that matter. You may have tried all possible ways in your strength to achieve things but in vain. My friend, never lose hope! Never back down! Don’t feel that you are useless. Always remember Zechariah 4:6 which says, “Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord Almighty. Certainly, by the power of the Almighty God, you will spread out to the right and to the left. You will never be humiliated! In the Bible we see Moses teaching the people to obey the voice of God in order to attain the perfect blessings of God. In Deuteronomy 28:2-7, Moses says to the people, ‘If you listened to the voice of God, blessed shall you be in the city and blessed shall you be in the field. In the 4th verse, he says blessed shall be the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground. And the fruit of your cattle and the increase of your herds and young of your flock.’
Dear friend, enlargement from the Lord is always such an encouragement for us to think big in our lives. Today, the Lord is promising you this increase! So, get ready and prepare for the coming blessings in your life. Prepare your household! Prepare your workplace! Sanctify yourself as holy people. Keep your ears attentive to the voice of God. Have bigger dreams! The Lord is going to enlarge your territory! When God blesses you, you will be satisfied. You will not lack in any good thing!
PRAYER: Loving Lord, I thank You for promising to enlarge my borders. You are the God of increase. There is nothing impossible for You. Lord, enlarge my steps so that I can receive Your abundance and be prosperous. Increase me more and more and my children so that we will abound in love for You and for all men. Let Your Word, Your presence, Your knowledge and Your grace and favour increase in my life. Lord, I pray for You to break every barrier and increase my greatness. Comfort me on all sides and satisfy me with Your finest blessings. Thank You for being mindful of me always. In Jesus’ name, I pray Amen.
