“Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the LORD: ‘Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria” 2 Kings 7:1.

The situations are all adverse for the King of Samaria. The King himself was responsible for all the calamities but he puts the blame on Prophet Elisha. The officer in charge also joins the King to blame Prophet Elisha. 2 Kings 6:32 says that the king even sent a messenger to kill the Prophet. But the Prophet prophesies a blessing upon the people by which the famine is going to end and there is going to be abundance in Samaria. The King’s officer could not believe the prophecy because he could not digest the volume of the Prosperity that is going to come.

I have seen people reject “Prosperity” because they think it is not from God and in their own words ‘it is demonic.’ All of a sudden they become too “spiritual.” God wants His people to live in Supernatural Prosperity. Let me tell you, the negative speaking will see God’s prosperity but will not enjoy it and that is exactly what happened to the king’s officer.

The four lepers who were at the entrance of the gate took a step of faith and entered the enemy’s camp. In 2 Kings 7:8 we read, “they went into one tent and ate and drank, and carried from it silver and gold and clothing ….. Whatever the Samarians lacked was found in the enemy’s camp. God used the four lepers to bring in the blessing of the Lord to Samaria although they were not allowed in the city.

I know there are Preachers and Pastors who do not believe in God’s Prosperity but on the other hand live in abundance. Dear believer, even if you do not believe in God’s Supernatural Prosperity, please do not speak against it. God’s Prosperity is not just finance but it is prosperity in all areas of your life. That is exactly what God has intended for you.

A blessing is at your doorstep. Be ready to receive it. It could be today, tomorrow or any moment.

Be Blessed!

“But he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” 1 John 5:18.

The enemy uses his weapon against the Lord’s children in all ways he can. But it is of no use because the Lord’s children are protected and especially when we are covered by the blood of Jesus the enemy’s weapon shall not prosper. In fact, the weapon which the enemy uses against the believer will turn against the enemy itself. I have seen that whenever it happened to me.

King Saul was very angry when the women sang as they danced and said, “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.” (1 Samuel 18:7-8). “So Saul eyed David from that day forward. And it happened on the next day that the distressing spirit…” came upon King Saul from the devil. (1 Samuel 18:9-10). 1 Samuel 19:1 says, “Now Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David; but Jonathan, Saul’s son, delighted greatly in David.”

David’s anointing worked for him. He was supernaturally protected by the Lord. We read what King David said in Psalm 34:7, “The angel of the LORD encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.” King Saul had a tragic end. “The archers hit him, and he was severely wounded by the archers” 1 Samuel 31:3. “Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it” 1 Samuel 31:4.

In the book of Esther, we find Haman was filled with pride after he received a promotion from King Ahasuerus. Everyone in the palace and the King’s servants bowed and paid homage to him except Mordecai, who would not bow or pay homage to him (Esther 3:5). Haman decided to kill the Jews (Esther 3:8) and laid out a plan to kill Mordecai too. The King ordered Haman to be hanged on the same gallows which he built for Mordecai.

Be assured that the enemy cannot even touch you or your family because you are born again.

Be blessed!

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8 – 9.

It is so true that the Lord’s thoughts and ways are completely different from our thoughts and ways. I surrendered completely to my Lord Jesus Christ from the day I came to realize that His thoughts and ways for me are flawless. Moreover, I came to understand that nothing works for me and my family except through His plans. God’s plans for us are way higher than we think.

In Genesis 15:3-4 we read, Then Abram said, “Look, You have given me no offspring; indeed one born in my house is my heir!” And behold the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “This one shall not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir.”

In Genesis 16:2 we see that Abram heeded to the voice of Sarai which was not what God had planned for Abram. So now we see how the plan of God was altered.

The Lord told Jonah to go to Nineveh and preach repentance to the people. Although Jonah made other plans were he ended up in big trouble, he had to return to Nineveh and preach the Lord’s message which in turn saved one hundred twenty thousand people and much livestock as mentioned in Jonah 4:11.

“The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations.” Psalm 33:10-11.

Our Lord Jesus Christ has wonderful thoughts and ways for us. Wait for his ways to come to pass.

There is a beautiful verse in Jeremiah 29:11 which I know will be a blessing for all of us. It says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

Be Blessed!

“Put Me in remembrance” Isaiah 43:26.

Welcome to our readers to a blessed, supernatural and a prosperous 2012! If you have promises from previous years which are not yet fulfilled, please do not fret. Jesus Christ is in control. It is worth the wait. The Word says in Exodus 23:20, “Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.” We know that Jesus Christ is working for us. His plans are flawless and He does not want us to meddle with His plans.

When we find that things are stagnant and nothing is working in our favour, there is one thing we can do; and that is to put the prophecies and the promises of the Lord into His remembrance.

In the Holy Bible, there are the Lord’s saints who put the Lord into remembrance and one of them was Samson. We read about him in Judges 16:28. “Then Samson called to the LORD, saying, “O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray! Strengthen me, I pray, just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!” God granted his request and we read in verse 30, “So the dead that he killed at his death were more than he killed in his life.”

In the first book of Samuel chapter one verse six we read that Hannah was provoked severely by Peninnah which made her miserable because she did not have children. In verse 10 it says, “And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the LORD, and wept in anguish. Verse 11: “Then she made a vow and said, “O LORD of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.” In verse 18 we see that Hannah went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad. God answered her prayer by giving a great Prophet who was also a great judge. His ministry took off with the downfall of a great Prophet – Prophet Eli.

In 2 Kings 20:1 we see that “King Hezekiah was sick and near death.” God sent Prophet Isaiah to inform King Hezekiah to “set your house in order, for you shall die and not live.” King Hezekiah refused to die and we read in verse 2, “Then he turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to the LORD, saying, 20:3 “Remember now, O LORD, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what was good in Your sight.”

Prophet Isaiah returned to King Hezekiah to inform what the Lord had told him according to verse 5, “I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; surely I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the LORD."

Moreover, the Lord gave King Hezekiah an additional blessing as we read in verse 6: “And I will add to your days fifteen years. I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for My own sake, and for the sake of My servant David.”

He surely remembers you because the Word says, “He remembers His covenant forever, the word which He commanded for a thousand generations” Psalm 105:8.

“I will lift up my eyes to the hills – from whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD who made heaven and earth” Psalm 121:1 – 2.

Thanks, praise and glory be to the Lord who blessed and prospered us beyond our imagination throughout 2011. I am so full of love, joy and grateful to my Lord for walking us through 2011 in Super Natural Prosperity. Our hearts swell with joy and happiness for all the wonderful and beautiful (excellent) things He has done in our lives.

As we move into the New Year God has wonderful things in store for us. He is ready to “act for the one who waits for Him” Isaiah 64:4. We read in 1 Corinthians 2:9, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” Love the Lord Jesus Christ unconditionally. You can see the results in days or in hours as it happened in 2 Kings 7.

The people of Samaria experienced a famine and Prophet Elisha prophesied which realised the following day. The four leprous men found an abundance of what they needed in the Syrian camp. Can you imagine an army coming for war with an abundance of gold, silver, clothing and food? Well, if you need a miracle today expect the same which happened in Samaria. God is going to bring to you what you need through someone. With God nothing is impossible.

In 1 Kings 17:4 we see that the Lord commanded the ravens to feed Prophet Elijah. For a moment, can you imagine a raven bringing food for the Lord’s servant? Normally, it is the raven which should eat the food as soon as it sees it. But the raven could not eat it because the Lord had commanded it to bring food for His servant. Likewise, you will see ravens feeding you in this New Year. Do not be surprised. Jesus Christ had ordered several ravens to help us while we moved into this part of the country. God moves the hearts of people to help His children.

God is going to provide divine connections in the New Year. You might not even know the person whom God is going to connect with you. He or she might not be of any importance to you. See how God arranged Boaz to be in a divine connection for Ruth the Moabitess when she came to Bethlehem. When Ruth accepted the Lord to be her Savior, everything fell in place. Hebrews 13:2 reads “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels.”

May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you abundantly in the New Year. Psalm 91: 14 says, “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because He has known My name.”

Moreover, the Lord will protect you from all evil as the Word says in Psalm 91:10, “No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; for He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.”

Have a blessed and prosperous 2012!

“The one who breaks open will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it; their king will pass before them. With the LORD at their head.” Micah 2:13.

This is a beautiful promise in the Holy Bible which keeps me going when I face difficult situations in my life where I am totally stuck, nowhere to turn to and completely rejected by people for no reason. I don’t know if you have gone through any of these situations in your life. This has happened to me several times. Jesus Christ is the only answer in such terrible situations and He gave me this blessed promise. Yes, He is the MIGHTY BREAKER and He has opened doors for us miraculously which we could never imagine and ‘it was only for us.’

This verse is a strong promise for all of us and know for sure that Jesus Christ is the only person who will be there for you in such situations. He is the MIGHTY BREAKER for all of those who believe Him. Let it be any problem in your life; believe, He is standing right by you to help you through. Hold on to His hands, He loves you and follow Him.

There are several instances in the Holy Bible where God opened doors for His people. In the book of Exodus, we see God brought the Israelites into Canaan, a land flowing with milk and honey, which belonged to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites and the Jebusites. Exodus 23:20 says, “Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.”

In the book of Acts, chapter 12 we see Herod the king arrested Peter and put him in prison because it pleased the Jews. Acts 12:7 “Now behold an angel of the LORD stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands.” Although Peter was sleeping in the prison, Jesus Christ sent His angel in the prison to rescue His precious child. As we read on in verse 10 it says, “When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.”

You are a precious child of the Lord Jesus Christ. Your friends and your relatives will really forget you when you need help. And remember, they cannot help you in any way except Jesus Christ. He is concerned about you and is closely watching you all the time. “Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you. See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands.” Isaiah 49:15-16.

In Acts 16:25, Paul and Silas were in prison for healing a demon possessed girl. Unlike Peter, Paul and Silas prayed and sang hymns to God. In verse 26 we read, “Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.” God opened the prison doors for His precious people.

Dear reader, the MIGHTY BREAKER loves you and He is going to open a door for you today. Love Him and talk to Him. He loves you more than anyone else in the world. Expect a miracle today.

Be blessed!

“The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build” Nehemiah 2:20.

Although Nehemiah was King Artaxerxes’ cupbearer and was living in a perfect comfort zone the news brought by one of his brethren made him really sad. The walls surrounding Jerusalem were broken down and the gates were burned with fire. Now this represents the same condition of the present church which is in ruins. When we hear and see what is happening around us we also feel what Nehemiah felt. And it is our responsibility to rebuild the ruins.

As in the days of Nehemiah, God is going to bring people who can rebuild the old ruins. We read in Isaiah 61:4,”And they shall rebuild the old ruins, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations.” God is going to provide men and resources for rebuilding the ruins. Ezekiel 36:10 says, “I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt.”

People have started to realize that without God their lives are in ruins. This is what happened to the Israelites and it is happening today. A time is coming and has come when people are going to run to Jesus Christ who is the one and only God who can save you out of your current situation. There are several men of God who are struggling hard to build the wall as Nehemiah did.

As in the days of old, we can find people like Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem and the Prophetess Noadiah during these days too who scheme against God’s plan. As we read in Nehemiah 4:20,”Our God will fight for us.” The plans of the enemies will come to nothing. Therefore, we His servants will arise and build.

Be Blessed!
