Theme: GOD OF PERFECTION
Text: Psalm 138:7-8, Psalm 19:7-8.
Exhortation
Praise ye the LORD! Alleluiyah!
Thanks be unto God for His goodness and mercy that endureth forever (1Chronicles 16:34).
Every month, the LORD has been gracious to us by His leading in the realm of our supernatural inheritance in Christ Jesus. Hitherto we have witnessed an array of testimonies, to the glory of Almighty God. There is no limit to what our God can do. So get ready for more this month. I am confident and persuaded by His unfailing grace, that you will have glorious testimonies this month, in Jesus' Name (Amen).
By His grace, our Prophetic Prayer Theme this month is: GOD OF PERFECTION. Our God is the God of Perfection (Genesis 1:31). He cannot fail, cannot falter and cannot be weary. There is no unrighteousness in Him. When we pray in faith, He perfects our prayers; and this is the perfection: "...all things work together for good to them that love God..." -Romans 8:28. God's time is always the best.
But what is Perfection?
Perfection is the quality or state of being complete, so that nothing substandard remains; the highest attainable state or degree of excellence. It is the quality, attribute or endowment that is completely excellent or flawless. This description can only, in its highest level, be attributed to God Almighty. He is perfect in His creation (Genesis 1:31). He is perfect in love (John 3:16). He is perfect in His Words (Psalm 19:7-8, John 1:1-5). He is perfect in glory and power (Isaiah 6:1-7, Luke 1:37). God of Perfection uses the instrument of grace to crown us with success beyond our personal efforts. He beautifies all that concern us beyond what our personal strength can achieve. God of Perfection adds a seal of grace upon our inadequacies and translates it into abundance (Psalm 23:5-6). He perfects your journey to breakthrough by supplying extra strength (or grace) to get there faster (Isaiah 40:29-31).
He perfected His will upon the children of Israel, delivered them from the land of bondage and led them into the Promise Land (Genesis 17:1-8, Exodus 14:1-31). He perfected His will upon Hannah by wiping off her scourge of barrenness (1Samuel 1:13-20, ). He perfected Jabez' life and turned his reproach into glory (1Chron.4:9-10). He remembered Abraham and Sarah for fruitfulness even at old age. Medically and humanly speaking, it is impossible for a man of hundred years and a woman of ninety years to bear a child together. But the God of Perfection made it more than possible (Genesis 17: 19-21, 21:1-8, Psalm 92:12-15).
In her hopeless situation, the woman of Zarephath with her son had only little flour and oil left to eat, expecting no other provision but death! But the God of Perfection turned the table against the spirit of lack and death, giving her supernatural abundance (1Kings17:1-16). When the God of Perfection comes into your situation, your little is translated into abundance . Your nothing is translated into something. Your reproach is translated into glory.
It is the God of Perfection that translates your little efforts into great success. It is the God of Perfection that translates your weaknesses into strength. It is the God of Perfection that connects a nonentity to people of great substance.
However, we need to walk with Him in faith and obedience. We need to appreciate the fact that, He alone can perfect all our efforts, weaknesses and inadequacies. While depending on the grace of God, we need to strive for perfection in every area of our lives, like Paul the apostle. We need to strive for perfection in obedience, in doing His will and in all that concern the advancement of His kingdom. Jesus emphasizes that we must strive for perfection just as our Father Who is in heaven -Philip.3:12-15, Matthew 5:48, 1Peter 1:16. Not only these, we also need to meditate constantly on His word until it "becomes flesh and dwell with us" in our situation. Our meditation and confession based on His sure promises should re-echo in our hearts and mouths everytime. -Ps.1:1-3, Joshua 1:8
We need to approach His Throne of Grace with thanksgiving always, in appreciation of the past, present and our future expectation for perfect (Psalm 100:1-5, 67:1-7). As we pray together this month, the LORD shall perfect all that concerns us, and our testimonies shall know no bounds, in Jesus' name.
With Jesus Christ, Victory is Sure! And all-round perfection is guaranteed.
Shalom !
