Prophetic word for today. – Today, you shall find righteousness, life and honour, in the name of Jesus.
Fire Scripture: Psalm 12:1-10
God delights in the prosperity of His children. In Psalm 112:1-3, the Bible highlights the blessedness and prosperity of the righteous. The book of Proverbs also confirms that prosperity is a major reward of righteousness.
It says that adversity pursues sinners, but the righteous will be rewarded with prosperity (Proverbs 13:21). Proverbs 21:21 adds that “whoever pursues righteousness and love will find life, prosperity and honour.” Similarly, Psalm 92:12 says that “the righteous shall flourish like the palm tree and grow as the cedar of Lebanon.”
Abraham flourished in his days. God blessed him in all things-gold, silver, etc. He had so many servants and could raise an army of 318 men to fight and rescue Lot and his family in Genesis 14. Daniel and Joseph also prospered by righteousness.
They grew from grass to grace. Apart from individuals, any nation that follows righteousness will experience prosperity from the Lord. For instance, in the Old Testament, as long as Israel had right standing with God, He provided adequately for all their needs, defended and preserved them. They had sufficiency in all things. This will be the testimony of any righteous individual or nation today.
As a New Testament believer, you should do the following in order to maintain your right standing and upright walk with God:
(1) Move closer to God.
(2) Increase the knowledge of God’s word in your life; let it dwell richly in you and live by it daily.
(3)Grow stronger spiritually to deal with the temptations that cross your path day by day.
(4) Become more like Christin how you act and react.
(5) Make your faith in God’s promises stronger each day.
(6) Become more faithful to God’s house and work.
(7) Spend more time in God’s word and prayer.
(8) Share your faith with others more frequently.
The foregoing will earn you the prosperity and flourishing that God promised His faithful and upright children. I pray that you will flourish like the palm tree, in the name of Jesus.
