3RD , FEBRUARY 2022
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 30, Job 31, Job 32, Matthew 22:15-46, Psalm 18:16-24
FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 3:1-16
1 There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
2 This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”
3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
4 Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’
8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
9 Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How can these things be?”
10 Jesus answered and said to him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things?
11 Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness.
12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
𝐈 𝐃𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐅𝐔𝐋 𝐆𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐒 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐄, 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐉𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐒.
THE MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we established the fact that God rewards faithful giving. Apart from Abraham who received huge rewards for his faithful giving, Jesus also gave His all and got mighty blessings from God. Philippians 2:9-11 says, "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." We should imitate these role models.

Let
us examine the benefits of faithful giving. This will help you to
make giving to God a priority in your life and to give even more
this year.
First, faithful giving always results in receiving
from the Lord and others. Luke 6:38 affirms this, "Give, and it
shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken
together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with
the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you
again." As you increase your giving to God this year, heaven
will bless you stupendously, in the name of Jesus.

Second,
God will bless whatever you put your hand to. Deuteronomy 15:10
underscores this point, "Thou shalt surely give him, and thine
heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that
for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works,
and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto."
Third,
every time you give, you are declaring the following: (1) You are
blessed (Deuteronomy 16:17). (2) You are righteous (Proverbs 21:26).
(3) You are obedient (2 Corinthians 9:13). (4) You love God (John
3:16). (5) You trust God (1 Timothy 6:17).
Another benefit of
faithful giving is that God will increase you so that you can keep
being generous (2 Corinthians 9:10). Finally, you will receive a
reward for your giving (Matthew 10:42).
Beloved, the
foregoing benefits and many more await you as you give faithfully
and generously to God and His work this year. Plan to give more
tithe, first fruits, offering and alms (help to the poor, needy and
less privilege). The El-Shaddai will give you pleasant surprises, in
the name of Jesus.
