THEME: PRAYERS FOR CHILDREN



MEMORISE: And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.  Isaiah 54:13



READ: Isaiah 44:2-6 

2 Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.


3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:


4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.


5 One shall say, I am the LORD'S; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel.


6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.



1. Father, thank you for the gift of children. Thank you, Lord, for all the children around me; thank you for their lives,

health and sound mind.


2. Father, I ask for mighty testimonies over all the children I come in contact with. Let me always have reasons to rejoice over them.


3. Father, please build a wall of fire around all the children in my family, church, and community. Make them untouchable to the devil and his agents, in Jesus' name.


4. Father, please surround the children around me with the right people. Do not allow them to be influenced wrongly, in Jesus' name.


5. Father, pour out Your Spirit on all the children around me. Let them blossom and flourish in your goodness and grace, in Jesus' name.


6. Father, please provide the parents around me with the resources that they need to take care of their children. For the children without parents, Lord, You are the Father of the fatherless; please send help to them.


7. Father, as we celebrate Children's Day across the world today, please remember those who are looking up to You for children of their own and grant them answers to their prayers, in Jesus' name.


8. Father, give all the children in my family, church, community, and the nation as a whole, hearts that yearn for You. Let them grow up pleasing You and doing Your will at all times, in Jesus' name.


9. Father, please give all the children that are connected to me in one way or the other good success in their academics. Give them the wisdom, knowledge and understanding to excel, in Jesus' name.


10. Father, please let Your supernatural guidance abide with every child in my family, church, and community. Guide them in every area and at every stage of their lives so that they don't make costly mistakes, in Jesus' name.


11. Father, please break any generational curses that might exist in the lineage of all the children around me. Please raise a standard against every evil plan of the enemy concerning them, in Jesus' name.


12. Your personal prayer points for all the children around you.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 5-8

HYMN 22: SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER


1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


that calls me from a world of care, 


and bids me at my Father's throne 


make all my wants and wishes known. 


In seasons of distress and grief, 


my soul has often found relief, 


and oft escaped the tempter's snare 


by thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 



2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


the joys I feel, the bliss I share 


of those whose anxious spirits burn 


with strong desires for thy return! 


With such I hasten to the place 


where God my Savior shows his face, 


and gladly take my station there, 


and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 



3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! 


thy wings shall my petition bear 


to him whose truth and faithfulness 


engage the waiting soul to bless. 


And since he bids me seek his face, 


believe his word, and trust his grace, 


I'll cast on him my every care, 


and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

THEME: HE IS A REWARDER



MEMORISE: 

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Hebrews 11:6



READ: Matthew 10:40-42 

40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.


41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.


42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.



MESSAGE

Peter's encounter with Jesus at the Lake of Gennesaret, is a pointer to the fact that our Lord is indeed a generous rewarder (Luke 5:1-7). He allowed the Lord to use his boat as a pulpit and was rewarded with such a great catch of fish that his boat began to sink; he had to call additional hands to help him manage his breakthrough.


There are many areas of service that attract God's generous rewards. One of such is partnering with God to advance the agenda of heaven; this was what happened in Peter's case. Another act that brings heavenly rewards is obedience to the Lord's instructions. You can see this in the story of Abraham, who obeyed God when he was instructed to get out of his father's house to a place God would show him (Genesis 12:1-4). He obeyed, even though he did not know where he was going. As if that wasn't enough, when he was eventually blessed with Isaac, the child of promise, he was asked to sacrifice him as a burnt offering, and again, he obeyed. As a result of his obedience, God rewarded him with an everlasting covenant of blessing and multiplication (Genesis 22:15- 17).


Another area of service that receives God's attention for generous rewards is hospitality. An example is the story of the Shunammite woman who was so generous to Prophet Elisha that the Lord rewarded her with a son - a gift money could not buy (2 Kings 4:8-17). The story of the widow of Zarephath is another example of how God rewards hospitality (1 Kings 17:9-16). She sacrificed her last meal and that brought about meals that sustained her family throughout a famine. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:2:


Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.


God also rewards people who host His presence in their homes. According to 2 Samuel 6:11-14, God blessed Obed-Edom so much for housing the ark of the covenant that he became the envy of the king. This is a great lesson to those who are reluctant to submit their homes as house Fellowship meeting centers. Such people don't know the blessing they are missing out on by denying God the use of their space.


Beloved, as today's memory verse declares, our God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek, serve, obey, and honor Him. Use this to your advantage today.



KEY POINT

God never overlooks anything you do for Him. He will always reward you.



BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 1-4



AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE



HYMN 26: THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS 


1 There shall be showers of blessing:


 This is the promise of love;


There shall be seasons refreshing,


 Sent from the Savior above.



Refrain


Showers of blessing,


Showers of blessing we need;


Mercy-drops round us are falling,


 But for the showers we plead.



2 There shall be showers of blessing


Precious reviving again;


Over the hills and the valleys,


Sound of abundance of rain.



3 There shall be showers of blessing;


Send them upon us, O Lord!


Grant to us now a refreshing;


Come, and now honor Thy Word.



4 There shall be showers of blessing;


O that today they might fall,


Now as to God we’re confessing,


Now as on Jesus we call!



5 There shall be showers of blessing,


If we but trust and obey;


There shall be seasons refreshing,


If we let God have His way.

THEME: THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING JESUS


MEMORISE: 

And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

Daniel 11:32


READ: Philippians 3:7-11 

7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.


8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,


9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:


10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;


11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.


MESSAGE

The joy that comes from knowing God is immeasurable. However, joy is just one of the many benefits enjoyed by those who know Him. From our memory verse, you will understand that those who know their God will be strong and do exploits. As a Christian, you do not have to be fearful about the challenges that come with everyday life. God has empowered you to overcome whatever obstacles you might encounter. The Bible says in Romans 8:37:


...we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.


Furthermore, knowing Jesus empowers you to walk in victory every day and to be bold in the face of trials (Proverbs 28:1). Fear can paralyze a fellow, but God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Knowing God and understanding His perfect love for you enables you to live above fear. The Bible says in 1 John 4:18:


There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.


After his encounter with the Lord, Paul was so full of joy from knowing the true God that he penned the words of today's Bible reading, in which he confessed wholeheartedly that Jesus was everything to him. Even after he had attained great heights in the Lord, he still longed to know Him better because he discovered that the more of Jesus he knew, the more joyful, fulfilled, satisfied and hopeful of eternal life he became. I pray that you will experience this type of joy, in Jesus' name.


Beloved, knowing Jesus increases your faith in Him, and as you increase in faith, you please God more. The Bible says in Hebrews 11:6 that without faith, it is impossible to please God. The joy of having eternal life is drawn from knowing Jesus. John 17:3 says:


And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.


To know Jesus is to know peace because He is the Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:6). Knowing Jesus is knowing prosperity and abundance (Matthew 14:14-21, 2 Corinthians 8:9). Knowing Him is knowing divine healing and, better still, divine health (1 Peter 2:24). All these and more are the benefits of knowing our Savior. Beloved, do you truly know Jesus?


PRAYER POINT

Father, please reveal more of Your Son to me daily.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Esther 6-10


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 27: WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

1 What a friend we have in Jesus,

all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,

O what needless pain we bear,

all because we do not carry

everything to God in prayer!


2 Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged;

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Can we find a friend so faithful

who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

take it to the Lord in prayer!


3 Are we weak and heavy laden,

cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge--

take it to the Lord in prayer!

Do your friends despise, forsake you?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In his arms he'll take and shield you;

you will find a solace there

THEME: POWER TO PROSPER


MEMORISE: 

But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.     

Deuteronomy 8:18


READ: Deuteronomy 8:6-18 

6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.


7 For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;


8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;


9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.


10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.


11 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:


12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;


13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;


14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;


15 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;


16 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;


17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.


18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.


MESSAGE

In today's memory verse, the Lord reveals Himself as the source of power for prosperity. It is the blessing of the Lord that gives riches without any sorrow (Proverbs 10:22). Those who desire to prosper without sorrow will therefore pay attention to the path of prosperity He has in His word. Today's Bible reading also contains truths from God's word that can deliver any soul from the bondage of poverty. Your Father in heaven wants you to prosper greatly, and so, we will examine a few of these truths today.


Firstly, the Lord told the children of Israel that the land He was giving them was being taken care of by Him from heaven. In other words, the land would yield its best to them because He was in charge of it, not because of their own efforts. To emphasize this, the Lord described the land to them further, saying in Deuteronomy 11:12:


A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.


Therefore, to prosper in this world, you need to look away from the present economic situation around you and focus on the economy of heaven that is managed all year round by the Almighty Himself.


For the economy of your life to respond to the laws of heaven, you must be subject to the laws of heaven. Many people get excited about God's promises but fail to do their part, therefore, they do not experience the fulfilment of the promises. God gives those who acknowledge Him as their Creator, Redeemer, and Lord the power to prosper. Do you regard God as your Creator? Do you honor Jesus Christ as your Redeemer, or do you take His death for granted by going back to sin even though you have been saved? For God to prosper you, you must honor Him as God indeed. Today, He is asking you the same question He asked the Israelites in Malachi 1:6:


A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear?


If you truly desire the power to prosper from God, you must ensure that your life honors Him. You must also ensure that you fear Him and love Him with all your heart, soul and mind (Matthew 22:37).


PRAYER POINT

Father, give me the power to prosper indeed, in Jesus
