Happy New Month of Increases
Greetings in the Name of Jesus. I congratulate you for your conquests so far in life this year.
ACTIVITY
Pause and think of some things you have successfully achieved this year.
Write them down. Enumerate them.
Consider the following Scriptures and think on the highlighted words:
9Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine (Proverbs 3: 9-10 KJV).
9 Honor the Lord with your capital and sufficiency [from righteous labors] and with the firstfruits of all your income;
10 So shall your storage places be filled with plenty, and your vats shall be overflowing with new wine (Proverbs 3:9-10 AMPC).
9 Honor the Lord with your wealth
and with the firstfruits of all your produce;
10 then your barns will be filled with plenty,
and your vats will be bursting with wine (Proverbs 3:9-10 ESV).
9Honor the Lord with your wealth
and the firstfruits from all your crops.
10 Then your barns will be full,
and your wine barrels will ·overflow [burst] with new wine (Proverbs 3:9-10 EXB).
Proverbs 3: 9-10 is commonly cited during announcement for offerings at Church by some denominations. Here, I want you to think of something more valuable than financial wealth. It is ‘time’. Can you compare any highlighted word with time?
Time is a priceless gift from God to every human being living. This gift is one of those things most taken for granted on earth. Everybody is given time and it is not in vain. See Isaiah 45:19. God is a God of purpose.
What are you doing with your given time? What have you been doing with your time? What had you been doing with the past 43 weeks God had given you, so far this year?
There are Christians honouring God with material things but I want you to note that ‘ALL your increase’ is in Proverbs 3: 9 so that ‘so’ in Proverbs 3: 10 can apply to you.
The ‘ALL’ includes YOUR TIME. A lifestyle of honouring God is what the Holy Spirit is commanding you through the writer of the book of Proverbs.
ACTIVITY
Read the Scripture again.
9Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of ALL thine increase:
10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine (Proverbs 3: 9-10 KJV).
Today, 01/11/21 (or 11/01/21) is a new increase of a brand new day and a brand new month. It is the beginning of a brand new week. Last week is gone forever. It is never to return but what is not gone is the record of your deeds last week because IT IS WRITTEN
10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad (2 Corinthians 5:10 KJV).
Every child of God must always remind himself of this Scripture 24/7.
So, let today be a new beginning to you. Take today before the presence of God and start honouring Him by thanking Him. You will experience profitable increases in your life.
