Prophetic Focus - July 2014 - I am Blessed to be a Blessing – 2 Cor 9:8

Exceeding Grace greetings in the precious name of Jesus Christ.

I have no doubt that everyone of us must have experienced some notable encounters with the word of God all through the month of June, 2014. The humbling testimonies shared on our various altars are proofs that God’s word works.  One of such is a man who has been paralyzed for over 9 months, had an encounter while reading Understanding the Power of Praise and divine energy began to surge in him and before getting through  to the end of the book, he was perfectly made whole. This testimony was shared two Sundays ago at our Goshen church in Abuja. To God be all the glory. May everyone’s encounter in this season last a lifetime in Jesus’ name. Amen.   

But what is the Holy Ghost saying for this month of July 2014?

Just as every natural father wants their children to prosper and flourish; in the same manner and much more, God does not desire any less for His children (3Jn 2).

The wealth of every natural father reflects in their children, so also has God ordained same for His children (1Tim 6:17-19)

Every Winner should expect to be visited for a supernatural turnaround this month. Remember, God has come down in the midst of this year, among others, to level out all everlasting mountains and scatter all perpetual hills on our paths. (Hab 3:1-19)

In addition, the midst of the year is also ordained for encounter with financial fortune (Hag 2:1-9)

All through scriptures most turnaround encounters came suddenly:

·      God visited Noah suddenly and that led to the preservation of the generation of humanity                     - Gen 6:13-14

·      Sudden visitation turned Abraham to a symbol of generational blessing(Gen 12:1-4/ 22:1-18/24:1)

·      Suddenly, God visited Gideon and turned him to a great deliverer  - Judg 6:1-14

·      God visited Solomon suddenly, and as result he became the wealthiest man in Bible history {1Kg 3:3-13/ 1Kg 4:22-27/1Kg 10:4-23 (23)}

Remember, every child of God is a seed of Abraham – Gal 3:29

God once said to Abraham; “And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed…”- Gen 22:18

Although, we are redeemed to be blessed, but much more importantly, redemption is ordained to make us a blessing to our world – 2Cor 8:9/Gen 22:17-18.

However, it should be noted that wealth in the Kingdom is an ENTRUSTMENT but not an ATTAINMENT. This implies that, God only empowers those He can trust with wealth, that is, those who will use such wealth for His glory – Deut 8:18/ Lk 16:11 

Therefore, the prophetic focus for the month of July 2014 is:          

I am Blessed to be a Blessing – 2Cor 9:8

We must all get spiritually set for a launch into a realm of financial fortune, among others, all through this new month.

Recommended books of the month authored by me include:

*Understanding Financial Prosperity   * Breaking Financial Hardship

* Winning the War against Poverty     * Hidden Covenants of Blessing

* Covenant Wealth. 

Jesus is Lord!
