The Lord who blessed Jacob just as He promised shall bless your children as well (Genesis 28:10-15, Isaiah 49:21). God's promises are Yes and in Him Amen (2 Corinthians 1:20).
Jacob says, "I crossed over this Jordan with my staff and now I have become two companies" Genesis 32:10. Similarly, God blessed Moses also. He was put in a basket and floated on the river when he was just three months old baby.
Moses was brought up according to the following verses "This is what the Sovereign Lord says: See, I will beckon to the Gentiles, I will lift up my banner to the peoples; they will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders. Kings will be your foster fathers and their queens your nursing mothers. They will bow down before you with their faces to the ground; they will lick the dust at your feet. Then you will know that I am the Lord; those who hope in me will not be disappointed" (Isaiah 49:22, 23). He was brought up by the princess. "He was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action" (Acts 7:22). Moses was exalted in such a manner that he led the Israelites who were slaves in Egypt to Canaan. The Lord was also with him. Above all the Lord spoke to him face to face (Numbers 12:8).
We always think that we are bringing up our children. But when the blessing of God comes upon us, He Himself shall instruct and guide our children. The peace concerning our children shall really be great for us. The Bible says, "All your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be your children's peace" (Isaiah 54:13).
After my marriage I thought everything will be joyous for me. But only after my marriage I lost my mother, brother and father one after another. In my agony I cried, "Oh Lord, why did You leave me alone?" The Lord saw my tears. Today He has blessed my children abundantly. He gave us wonderful brothers and sisters who took care of them while they were young. Seeing the way my children have been blessed I have asked God with wonder, "Who brought up these children?"
While my children were just 12 years and 10 years respectively they used to pray to God every day during the family prayer and ask, "Oh Lord, You have filled my parents and grandparents with Your Holy Spirit. Please give us also the anointing of the Holy Spirit" (Isaiah 59:21). We have never compelled them either to get filled with the Holy Spirit or to do His ministry. The Lord who saw the great longing, which they had in their heart to receive the Holy Spirit anointed both of them during the Institute of Power Ministry.
Today God is using all my three children mightily in His ministry. "Here am I and the children who the Lord has given me! We are for signs and wonders in Israel. From the Lord of hosts, who dwells in Mount Zion" (Isaiah 8:18). The Lord has blessed our whole family. Countless people are blessed through our children. The Lord listens to their sincere prayers and sends His answers.
Dear Friend, after seeing the way your children have been blessed and their great peace you would also praise God. Dear Friend, such blessings shall come seeking after you. The Lord shall remove all your wants and bless you abundantly. The peace of your children shall be great and they shall be taught by the Lord Himself.
The Lord who blessed Sarah, Rebecca, Jacob and Moses is with you even today. He tells you, "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness." Our Heavenly Father who is full of love is in our midst and in our family as a mighty God. He shall make you and your children so strong and beautiful like well-nurtured plants and pillars carved to adorn a palace. He shall certainly supply all your needs.
Prayer
Loving heavenly Father,
On this wonderful day, which You have granted me in Your grace and mercy, I praise and thank You for all the goodness You have bestowed upon me. I pray that you bless me just as how You blessed Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joshua, Deborah, Esther and others who sought You diligently. May Your peace always rest upon me and the members of my household. Help us to be like well-nurtured plants and pillars carved to adorn a place. Since You are my Good Shepherd I trust that I shall have no lack in my life.
In the matchless name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ I pray.
Amen.
