TODAY’S TOPIC: Repent and be prosperous

Text: Jeremiah 2:1-9 (NIV):


"2:1. The word of the LORD came to me:

2:2. Go and proclaim in the hearing of Jerusalem: "'I remember the devotion of your youth, how as a bride you loved me and followed me through the desert, through a land not sown.

2:3. Israel was holy to the LORD, the firstfruits of his harvest; all who devoured her were held guilty, and disaster overtook them,'" declares the LORD.

2:4. Hear the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, all you clans of the house of Israel.

2:5. This is what the LORD says: "What fault did your fathers find in me, that they strayed so far from me? They followed worthless idols and became worthless themselves.

2:6. They did not ask, 'Where is the LORD, who brought us up out of Egypt and led us through the barren wilderness, through a land of deserts and rifts, a land of drought and darkness, a land where no one travels and no one lives?'

2:7. I brought you into a fertile land to eat its fruit and rich produce. But you came and defiled my land and made my inheritance detestable.

2:8. The priests did not ask, 'Where is the LORD?' Those who deal with the law did not know me; the leaders rebelled against me. The prophets prophesied by Baal, following worthless idols.

2:9. "Therefore I bring charges against you again," declares the LORD. "And I will bring charges against your children's children."



SHOWER (Reflection):

Welcome to new month, brethren. Our God who made it possible for us to see this day will surely see us through the month in Jesus name, Amen! However, we must understand that this can only be possible or easily achieved when we are closer to God. That is why our God is telling us today to seek His face. The almighty God wants us to repent or turn away from our sinful or evil ways. It is a pity that the younger generation are going back to idolatry, fetish and other dangerous practices. Many have forgotten what God did to their respective parents or even to themselves. The end of these is condemnation, death and hellfire. To succeed this month, we must have a rethink. 



PRAYER/DECLARATIONS

1. O God, my father, I seek Your face this month. Forgive me and wash me clean so that I will prosper in Jesus name, Amen.


2. By the power in the blood of Jesus Christ, this month must not pass me by financially, maritally and otherwise ...in Jesus name, Amen.


3. Before the end of this month, O God arise and kill all those who have made themselves gods unto me...in Jesus name, Amen.


4. I fire back to evil men and women who are filing evil arrows against me...in Jesus name, Amen.
