WALKING THE WALKDate: 08-08-2010 Speaker: Dr. Paul Dhinakaran Gist: God will increase the number of people who will be concerned about you
God will multiply the number of people who love and care for you in your life as well as in your family. Perhaps, thus far you have been thinking that many are opposing you. You could be saying, “There is none to help me.” However, henceforth you will find the love of God being poured into the hearts of people who will love you, help you and take you to greater heights.
God will increase the number of people who will be concerned about you and they would help you to ride on high places (Ezekiel 36:10-11). Therefore, the love of God will envelope you and people who fear God will surround you. The Bible records as to how the early churches multiplied, “Then the churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied” (Acts 9:31).
How does a church multiply? When the people increase in number the church multiplies. Likewise in your family there will be addition of people who fear God or the members of your family will begin to fear God. There will be perfect peace in the place where you are planted. You will have the blessed privilege of enjoying divine peace coupled with dwelling among godly people.
Your relationship within the members of your family will abide with the laws of God. You will see the reverence for God amongst the members of your congregation. God will place you in a school, house, working place, business and anywhere for that matter where people who have reverence for God abound. The churches and ministries then will have no personal agenda or motives. The fear of God will fill everyone and such people will surround you. The Bible says, “You (God) will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You” (Isaiah 26:3).
In the corridors of power, where the gathering of wealthy people is found, the number of people who fear God will increase as well. God is going to touch the rich, powerful, legislatures and those in authority to a great measure. The servants of God and churches that fear God will increase in number. Consequently there will be great peace in the land.
Would you ask God to fill you with reverence for Him in your life? Will you make a decision to minister to God in the righteous way, follow His statutes with all sincerity, take care of your family, do His ministry with all sincerity and give the offerings due to God? Doing these things with all sincerity is walking in the fear of God. Then there will be great peace in you and through you the land will be blessed with peace.
Following this, you will touch people in authority. For this to come to pass you ought to surrender yourself for the will of God to be accomplished in your life. On this day submit your life into the hands of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and may His will for you be fulfilled in your life.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father,
I cry out to You, O Lord; and to You I submit my supplication. Please hear me O Lord and have mercy on me. Lord, be my helper. You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, to the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
In the precious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ I pray.
Amen. |
