Sevenfold as Bright

Tuesday 10 January
READ: Isa. 30: 26
MORE LESSON: Gen. 1: 14

The Lord wants to increase His light upon your life. In Gen 1: 14, God created the lights in the firmament and He said that they should be for signs. As a carrier of light, God has made you to be for signs. You are a sign and a wonder to many. Isa. 8: 18 says concerning you, Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. As the light of God is multiplied in your life, you become a wonder to many,
I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge: Psa. 71:7. Isa. 30:26 says, Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound. This is the day that the Lord will give a sevenfold increase to His light in your life. This happens when He binds up your bruise and heals the stroke of your wound. Sin is the breach that separates men from the light of God. As you confess and forsake your sins, your light will shine sevenfold brighter. A stroke is a sudden act of destruction that comes upon a people. Sin is the breach that creates an opportunity for the stroke to come.
It is sin that makes a man open and vulnerable to the attack of witches and wizards. Darkness has no power over a believer except sin creates a chance for it. However, today the Lord bind the breach of all sin in your life by His blood and heal the stroke of your wound. Every wrong that has allowed satan to have a foothold in your life is destroyed, in Jesus’ name.
When you confess your sins and receive forgiveness through His blood, then the light of the moon will become like the light of the sun and the light of the sun will become seven times as bright. Today, it is day break for you and your sun will shine seven times as bright. Song. 4:6 says, Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense. It is day break for you and all shadows are fleeing away from your life. Your life will be so bright that there will be no shadow of darkness at all. When men complain of darkness, your moon will be as the light of the sun and the light of the sun will be seven fold as bright for you.

Prayer/Action
* Receive the capacity for improvement, in Jesus’ name.
* Receive a sevenfold increase of peace, joy and abundance, in the mighty name of Jesus.

More and More II

Monday 9 January
READ: Prov. 4: 18
MORE LESSON: Deut. 1: 11

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Our God is a God of more and more. God does not give once in a life time blessing; He gives more and more. No matter how many blessings you have; this year you have to get ready for more. The term ‘more and more' shows that God doesn't give momentary blessings, He gives continuous blessings. Not only does God give a continuous blessing, He gives increasing blessings. This shows that God never has a better yesterday, and for His children, there is no better last year. Every single year is more than the previous. If there was any good thing you have experienced in the past, then, expect a repeat of the blessing. Beyond an ordinary repeat of the blessing, expect a repeat with an increase.
The major miracles in the Bible were repeated. God doesn't do miracles once and never again; He does them over and over again. Jesus healed the blind many times, cleansed lepers time and time again, raised many from the dead. There is hardly any miracle in the Bible that was not repeated. This is to prove that the first happening was not an accident. If He opened the eyes of the blind once, people can say that it happened by chance. But when He does it time and time again to the extent of creating eyes out of dust for a man born without eyes, then you know that these miracles are not accidental; they are deliberate.
Probably, you were rich before and the devourer came and you came down in your finances. This is the year that you are going to be more than you ever were before. Probably you had a baby and you have not been able to conceive again after that, and it is now looking like even the one you have was by chance. The God of deliberate, repeated and more miracles give you more this year. In case you have never had any before, then the God who has done it for others will repeat it in your life. Your miracles this year are not by chance; they are the deliberate acts of God. This year in every area of your life, you will become more and more.This means that the way you started 2017 is not the way you will end it.
You may start small but your path will shine more and more till you become everything that you are meant to be. By the end of the year, your testimony will be, Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness: Psa. 65:11.

Prayer/Action
* My path in life shall not end in loss but more blessing, in the mighty name of Jesus.
* Speak multiplication of blessing and goodness of God to your life, in Jesus’ name.

TODAY'S PROPHETIC PRAYER
2017, I shall shine more and more unto the perfect day, in the name of Jesus.

More and More I

Sunday 8 January
READ: Prov. 4: 18
MORE LESSON: Gen 1: 14 – 16

Our text reads, The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines ever brighter until the full light of day (NLT). The King James Version says, ...the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. This shows that the desired perfect destiny of the just man is reached only by shining more and more. This means that as the greatness of the light of a man increases, the perfection of his destiny becomes evident.
Many times, the problem of believers is not the absolute absence of light but the insufficiency of light. Even in the natural, the electric light supplied to our homes could be so low in voltage that it is not good to us: it cannot power any gadget and we can't even see well with it. This situation, popularly called 'low current' in Nigeria, is sometimes even as bad as when there is no power at all. Today, you need a brightening of the light of your life. You need to shine more and more. You might be born again, Spirit filled or even a servant of God but the intensity of your light is not enough for your desired result and impact in life. The way out is to get more and more light; do not rest with the light that you carry, thinking that is all the light there is. You need more light.
Peradventure, your candle is even already going down, you need your candle to be lit all over again. The light of the sun is more than the light of the moon and so the impact of the sun is greater than the impact of the moon. This shows that the greater your light, the greater your impact. More light will definitely result in more greatness, grace, glory, health and wealth. The sun rules the day because it shines more and more. When the dawn breaks, the sun only shines a little and darkness is still seen around to a certain degree. However, as the day progresses, the sun increases in shining till it dominates the firmament. Dominion is as a result of shining more and more.
There are certain matters in life that will not bow to you at your current level of light. You might have done all you know and your marriage, finances, health or whatever area of life is not responding. This shows that you need more light in that area. Go for more light so that you can shine more. More light comes by getting more of the Word of God and more illumination from people that God has given light in that area of life. Pray to God for light and seek light from people that carry light so that in their light you can see light (Psa 36: 9).

Prayer/Action
* Ask the Lord to enrich your heart with the revelation of His Word, in Jesus’ name.
* Ask the Lord to grant you an unhindered progress in life, in the mighty name of Jesus.

TODAY'S PROPHETIC PRAYER
By the power of the name of Jesus and His powerful blood, I shall not record any “R.I.P” (Rest in peace) but I shall have a daily RSVP of celebration, in the name of Jesus.

The Power of Light II

Saturday 7 January
READ: Psalm 36:5-10
MORE LESSON: 2 Cor. 4:6-7

Light is a great force that everything under Heaven responds to. From creation, God put everything He created on earth under the influence of light. Beside the light that God spoke into existence to rescue the earth from the influence of the darkness that was moving upon the deep in Genesis 1:3-4; God also proclaimed lights over the firmament to be governors over day and night, And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good: Gen. 1:14-18.
The earth and the things therein cannot be without light. Light enables men to see around them and afar off. Light kindles hope and assurance in men. The ray of the morning light through the window of a sick man's room can be very relieving. Light ensures productivity and effectiveness. It is one of the greatest sources of energy. Plant production is not possible without light, plant grows in the direction of light. Animals in general are active in the day; only few who are nocturnal move about in the dark. Yet God has blessed such animals with eyes that can pierce through darkness. Have you ever seen the eyes of a pussy cat in the night? It is awesome.
In our Scripture reading today, the psalmist said, For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light: v.9. As the lights of the cosmos are to the earth, much more is the light of God to the man's body, soul and spirit. Only in God's light shall we see light; and Jesus Christ is that Light. John the Baptist bearing witness of Jesus said, That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God: John 1:12-13. If you want to see the light that will disperse your darkness, invite Jesus into your life today.

Prayer/Action
* Lord, let Your light shine upon me as I invite Jesus into my life now, in Jesus’ name.
* Father, deal with every darkness of my life today by the power of Your light, in Jesus’ name.
