Now that we have concluded our series, “Pathway To Success”, I will be teaching you how to flourish on every side.
I will be using the Palm Tree and The Cedars of Lebanon to teach you how God sees you, what He thinks of you and how He wants you to live.
INTRODUCTION:
God’s perfect will for the believer is to flourish in every area of life.
Genesis. 17:6.NLT.
6 “I will make you extremely fruitful. Your descendants will become many nations, and kings will be among them!”
You are a fruitful field; a garden watered by God.
We were not saved to struggle; we were saved to reign and prosper in all we do.
It’s imperative to know that God takes pleasure in making us prosper beyond all forms of limitations.
PSALMS 92:5-15.KJV.
5 “O Lord, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8 But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
15 To shew that the Lord is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.”
Psalm. 35:27.KJV. 27 “Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.”
Are you following this?
God expects you to be fruitful and productive irrespective of the government, times, seasons and economy of your nation.
This is the direction of the Lord for the believers in this season.
People experience pressure, hardship, stagnation, and lack when they do not understand the plan and purpose of God for them.
THIS IS THE SEASON OF FLOURISHING FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD!!!
When it is dark in the world, God’s people have to shine in order to give men direction. Think about it.
I will be teaching you a little about what it means to flourish. Next week, I will begin teaching you about the Palm tree and subsequently, we will talk about the Cedars in Lebanon.
The word “Flourish” means “to grow”. It equally means “to develop in a healthy or vigorous way”.
To Flourish is to experience luxuriant growth- this means, “rich and persistent growth”.
One of the synonyms of flourishing is spreading.
God is saying it is time to spread on every side! Hallelujah!!!
Deuteronomy.8:7-9.NLT.
7 “For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land of flowing streams and pools of water, with fountains and springs that gush out in the valleys and hills.
8 It is a land of wheat and barley; of grapevines, fig trees, and pomegranates; of olive oil and honey.
9 It is a land where food is plentiful and nothing is lacking. It is a land where iron is as common as stone, and copper is abundant in the hills.”
Flourishing is stepping into a realm of supernatural supply that maintains its strength contrary to prevailing climatic and economic factors or forces.
It is a realm that has no respect for the economy or climate.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FLOURISH ON EVERY SIDE?
It is when every area of your life is experiencing consistent progress.
It is when every facet of your life is secured from all satanic siege.
It means enjoying rest, peace, and advancement on every side!
Psalm. 92:12-14.KJV.
12 “The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing”.
This particular scripture ought to get you excited!
This means hardship, pain, struggle, confusion and the likes are not for you.
Look away from anything that is trying to discourage you and keep your eyes on the Word of God.
The things you can see and feel are temporary, but the Word of God has eternal value.
Let the Word of God be more real to you than what your situation is saying and in no time, your situation will bow.
The first step is to be born again.
PRAYER OF SALVATION
Kindly say this prayer aloud;
“O Lord God, I come to You in the Name of Jesus Christ.
Your word says, “…whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21).
I ask Jesus to come into my heart to be the Lord of my life. I receive eternal life into my spirit and according to Roman 10:9, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thy heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved”,
I declare that I am saved; I am born-again; I am a child of God!
I now have Christ dwelling in me, and greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4)!
I now walk in the consciousness of my new life in Christ Jesus. Hallelujah!”
Congratulations!
GOD BLESS YOU RICHLY
