A NEW BEGINNING OF PROSPERITY
Memorise: This month shall be unto you
the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. Exodus
12:2
Read: Exodus 12:33-36, Bible in one
year: Ruth 1-2, Mark 1:1-28
When the Almighty God grants a new
beginning to an individual or a nation, it could be a new beginning of
prosperity. Imagine the Hebrew nation which for over four hundred years had
been at the mercy of their Egyptian rulers, coming out of Egypt as
millionaires simply because the Almighty God decided to grant them a new
beginning. I pray for you that this month shall be to you as the first month of
the year in astonishing prosperity in Jesus’ Name. How did the Lord do this for
the Israelites? The Bible says that He gave them favour in the sight of the
Egyptians, so that the Egyptians gave them whatever they asked for. The
treasures of the Egyptians were transferred to them without them having to
shoot an arrow. The Bible in Proverbs 16:7 says:
“When
a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with
him.”
This scripture sums up the experience of
the Israelites. Whenever God makes a pronouncement, we shall learn to take Him
at His word. Sometimes, this is easier read about than practiced. Imagine how
difficult it would have been for the Israelites to believe that before daybreak
after the night of the Password. They would cross over from poverty to
prosperity.
“Be
glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath
given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you
the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.” Joel 2:23
For this beautiful prophecy to come to
pass in your life, some spiritual conditions must be met. Prior to this
prophecy, the Lord demanded that his people turn to Him with all their hearts: with
fasting, weeping and mourning (Joel 2:12-13). He asked them to rend their
hearts and not their garments, and return to Him. We can deduce from this
narrative that the poor condition that a lot of people find themselves in today
is caused by their spiritual poverty. Some people live in abject poverty
because their lifestyle has turned God, who should bless them, into their
enemy. Here is the good news: when this great God turns a life around onto
godliness, he also changes the physical condition of the fellow concerned.
Settling the issue of poverty was one of the reasons why Christ came (2nd
Corinthians 8:9). In the Name of Jesus Christ, I welcome you to your new
beginning of prosperity. Only believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and repent of
your sins.
Prayer Point
Father, in your infinite mercy, banishes
poverty from every area of my life in Jesus’ Name.
