Heavenly Father, we just worship You this morning. Let’s worship the King of kings, let’s worship the Almighty God, our Creator, our Maker, our redeemer, the Almighty God, the Creator of the heavens and the earth. Father, there’s none like unto You, we worship You, we honor You, we adore You, blessed be Your name, Father, in Jesus name we have worshiped.
Father, we thank You for the privilege of being in Your presence this morning, thank You, Father, for the grace that we have to worship You, what a privilege it is to worship You, to dance and sing before You. Blessed be Your name, Father, in Jesus name.
Lord, we are praying oh God that today, even as we have come, none will go away empty-handed in Jesus name. And at the end of everything Lord, even when we have finished our assignments here on earth, Lord, we pray that we shall not meet You with empty hands in the name of Jesus. Let our lives accomplish Your purposes for us in the name of Jesus.
Father, even as we share Your word this morning, there’s a set purpose for Your word, let that purpose be accomplished in every life in the name of Jesus, and at the end, let Your name alone be glorified. Thank You precious Father, in Jesus name we prayed. Praise God!
I greet our father in the Lord, good morning daddy, good morning sir, good morning national elders; thank you fathers in the house, mothers in the house, brothers and sisters. God bless you as you have come in Jesus name. I have an assurance in my spirit that God has something unique for each of us this morning and you will not lose yours in the name of Jesus.
It’s always a privilege to stand here before God, and I pray that God will find us worthy, we will not fail Him in the name of Jesus.
This morning, we want to speak – as you know this month is our month of divine increase, and I know that God has already started His miracles in our lives, and before the end of the month, we shall all have testimonies of His enlargement, of His increase, of the progress we are making even by His grace and His mercy in the name of Jesus.
So this morning we want to talk about the topic, Provoking Divine Increase. Praise God! Somebody this morning, by your worship, you will provoke God to look your way and to bless you specially in the name of Jesus. God will look at and find something and have a reason to say today, this is your set time and He will bless you beyond your expectation in the name of Jesus.
Our texts, (we have two short texts), the first is Psalm 115:14 and the other is 1 Corinthians 3:6. Psalm 115:14 says, the Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children in the name of Jesus; and we have 1 Corinthians 3: 6, I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. God will increase you this morning in the name of Jesus.
Provoking divine increase – to provoke means to instigate, to attract or cause something to happen. This morning, you will do something that will cause God to look your way, as I said before, something great will happen to you in Jesus name.
Divine means simply something that comes from God or related to God. Something that is supernatural that comes from God; a godly occurrence or intervention in the affairs of men. And increase means growth, enlargement or multiplication.
So when we talk about divine increase, we are referring to a growth or enlargement that is obtained through God’s intervention. It is God’s supernatural multiplication of resources beyond normal human ability and effort.
If is by your might, by your strength, that is limited, it has a limited scope because human ability and effort and skill is limited. But when something happens in your life that is beyond you, you yourself know that this is beyond my ability, this is beyond my skill or education, this can only be by God. That’s why you say that this is divine intervention, supernatural increase. Hallelujah! So it is God’s supernatural multiplication of resources beyond normal human ability and efforts.
Provoking divine increase refers to the things that we can do to instigate or attract or cause God to supernaturally enlarge us. It is God’s prerogative to increase or to bless, we can’t compel Him, is not by right, is His ordination, it is His own discretion, absolutely, but we can position ourselves, we can do some things that can make God look our way.
If you remember in the book of first Kings 3: 4 down, there was a man who was wise; he did something, Solomon, he gave a thousand offering one day that God had to look his way, and God asked him, that was the first time God was asking a man, what do you want? He did something that made God to look his way and to ask him a question that – I’ve not seen God ask any man that kind of question, but today God will ask you that question. You will do something that will cause God to look at you and say my son, my daughter, just tell me what you want. Hallelujah.
So we can do something. If you look at the book of 1 Samuel 1: 11, Hannah also did something that made God look her. She has been going to Shiloh for many years, but that day by His divine inspiration, she made a vow, she said, “Lord, if you give me a son, I will give him back to You,” and God quickly answered her and gave her a child.
And as time went on, as the child grew, she fulfilled her vow, gave Samuel back to God, and what happened? In 1 Samuel 2:21, God honored her and gave her three sons and two daughters, because she did something that provoked God to answer her and to increase her.
There’s something in your ability to do; you don’t have the ability to increase yourself, but you have the ability to do something that will make God smile on you, something that will make God turn your way. When a man or woman’s way pleases God, God will demonstrate His power in his life. I pray that from today, God will look at you, He will find pleasure in your life and do something that will make your life an amazement to the world in the name of Jesus.
One or two things we need to know quickly before we go into what we can do to provoke God to look our way. The first is that we must know that God is the source of increase. Zechariah 4:6 says, not by might, not by power, but by the Spirit of God.
Psalm 127:1 & 2 says that except the Lord build the house, the builders work in vain: except God watches over the city, the watchmen watch in vain. It’s vain for us to wake up in the morning very early, get back home late at night, only to eat the bread of sorrow, that’s to show us that it’s not by power, it’s not by our effort, we can do all we can, but only God can increase. And I pray that from today, even as you make your own effort diligently, God will look your way and increase your substance beyond your ability in the name of Jesus.
God is the source of increase. Man may try to increase himself but there’s always a limit, and if you increase yourself in a way that is ungodly, there’s always a repercussion. David said in Psalm 73, he said I looked at the people who tried to increase themselves, those who made effort, who cut corners to increase themselves and they were blossoming and it looks like as if they were the ones that God loves; (he said) but when God opened my eyes, I saw that it does not pay to increase yourself, prosperity of the wicked.
What that means is that you are only being fighting for a day of destruction, if you want to do it yourself, you are bound to cut corners, do things to get unrighteous, enlargement, you may have it but after a while, if God didn’t give it to you, you are going to lose it. Hallelujah.
So, it’s only God that gives increase that is durable, that is lasting, that does not come with any sorrow. And I pray that from today, whatever God gives you will be permanent, will be lasting, will endure, will not come with any sorrow in the name of Jesus.
Deuteronomy 8:18 says God is the One that gives power to get wealth, any other power that you may use, today, people use all kind of means to get wealth but they are unrighteous wealth, no matter what it is, no matter how large it may seem, there’s always an end to it because Bible says that there’s a way that seems right to a man but the end of it is death, destruction. We will not walk the path of destruction in the name of Jesus.
Now there are dimensions of divine increase. Most time when we talk about increase, we think it’s just oh financial, oh I want to get money, no, if you look at the scriptures, God can increase you in any way. And we find example in our Lord Jesus Christ in Luke 2: 22, the Bible says, and Jesus grew you in wisdom, in stature, and in favor with God and man, so God can increase you intellectually, mentally, emotionally, physically, materially, in any way.
The blessings of God, the gift of God is multi-dimensional, so when we talk about increase, it’s not just about money, it’s not just about promotion at place of work, it’s not about position, it’s not by accumulation of wealth. In fact, your spiritual enlargement is greater much more important than any other enlargement, any other increase that does not have spiritual foundation will soon disappear. Hallelujah.
So when God looked at Solomon and said what do you want? He didn’t ask for riches, he didn’t ask for anything, he said give me wisdom, understanding, that I may be able to lead this Your people and lead them properly. And God said wow, okay, I’m impressed, you have not asked for riches for yourself, you have not asked for any other thing for self , you have asked for wisdom to lead my people. He said because you did that, I will give you what you have asked for and I will give you much more than you have asked for. Hallelujah!
When God wants to enlarge a man, He will give you what you are asking for and much more than you have asked for. That will be your portion in the name of Jesus.
And I want us to note that even as God increases as I just mentioned briefly, Satan also increases, and in these days that we live in, there’s a lot of increase you see around you; you see people displaying all kind of wealth especially on social media all around you, wherever you look, you see these are unbelievers, they don’t go to church but how come? Any increase that does not come by the way of God will soon disappear.
Proverbs 14:2 as I’ve said, Psalm 73: 1-19, if you increase yourself by fraud, by forging, by bribery and corruption, by embezzlement, stealing, kidnapping, deception, whatever it is, or even if you abuse the Spirit of God in your life, maybe God has anointed you and you begin to commercialize it as many do these days, whatever it is that God has given you as a gift which is supposed to be for His glory and you use it to flaunt or to oppress people or because you just want to show off or you say look, these days, whatever happens, I just want to get rich, whatever it is, people can look at you and say oh this man is being blessed but God cannot be mocked, eventually it will disappear because God cannot be mocked.
If it’s not of God, God will expose you and let the world know this is not of Me. It may tarry for a while because God wants you to change, but if you do not change, ultimately God will expose you because God cannot be mocked.
So whatever we are doing today that you know that this is not of God, is important for you to have a change of mind, don’t be like a ship that has been fighting for the day of destruction, let God touch you today and have a turn around. It’s better to have a little that God has given to you than to have so much that devil has given you that will lead to your destruction.
When you feed your family with ill gotten wealth, with things that you did because you have defrauded people, is like you are feeding them with gravel, is like feeding them with poison. There are many of us today feeding families, children, with poison because feeding people with unrighteous wealth is poison. Hallelujah.
Men may clap for you, may celebrate you maybe because you have that position, maybe because of all manner of things, if God didn’t put you there He will bring you down one day. So we need to understand that.
Now the one or two other foundational truths we must know before we go deep into the question is that our God is not only the source of increase, our God is a God of increase. This is evident at creation when God created the world; He increased everything, He brought light, everything was in chaos but God manifested His power of increase and increased everything He found. He increased the fishes, the animals, everything.
God is a God of increase and in Genesis 1: 26 – 28 when He created, He said let us make man in our own image and then He decreed increase into man, He said multiply, increase, have dominion. So that was God putting the DNA of increase in man, so each of us has a seed of increase, we have the potential to increase because God created us with the seed of increase, but many today, our seed is dormant because we don’t know what to do.
You know when you have something you don’t know how to use it, you will abuse it. You can be rich and if you don’t know you are rich, you can be walking around like a poor person. So already, because our God is a God of increase, He created us in His image and put the seed of increase in us, and I pray that every seed of increase that God has put in you that you are yet to discover, today, God will open your eyes and you will discover it in the name of Jesus.
It’s like that widow that Prophet Elisha met in 1st Kings 4 when he said oh, creditors came to take my children away, and he said what do you have in the house? She said I have nothing; he said are you sure? Think properly, then God opened her eyes and Elisha didn’t pray for the woman, all she needed was a divine opening of her eyes, something to inspire her, to let her know that everything that you need for your increase, God has put by you or in you.
It’s like you and I today, everything that we need to prosper in this world, to enlarge and to increase, God has put in us or around us. He said, think, then the woman said oh, I have this small bottle of oil; he said bring it, begin to pour. Your bottle of oil, that small thing that you have neglected or you are not aware of that God has placed in you or around you, meant to increase you, today your eyes will open, you will locate it in the name of Jesus.
Our increase is to bring glory to God, He created us for His pleasure. Revelation 4:1, God made us for a pleasure, and He said in Matthew 5:16, let your light so shine that men will see your good works and bring glory to God. When God increases us, is not for our own lust, it’s not for self enticement, it’s not to make us proud or to boast to other people, it is to glorify His name.
So if God knows each of us that when He blesses you, you are going to use it in the wrong way not for His glory, He will withhold His blessing, and if He gives it to you and you abuse it, He will withdraw it, so we need to understand.
Many times when we pray, ‘Father, enlarge me; Father increase me,’ God may not answer either because there is sin in you or because He knows that your motive is wrong, that what you are asking for, you are asking because oh I will show them in this area, I will show them that I am also somebody, I will go to my village and I will show them, because you want to show off, that’s not God’s purpose for increase. God’s blessings and increase are meant for His glory. Praise the living Jesus!
So quickly, what are some of the things that we can do to position ourselves to make God look our way? Number one is righteousness. Righteousness means being acceptable in the sight of God. God looks at you and He’s pleased, no man by his own effort can be righteous, it’s Jesus Christ that inputs righteous in us because He’s our righteousness.
So if you don’t have Christ in your life, you can’t be righteous. It’s not by power, it’s not by effort, it’s not by prayer, it’s not by fasting, is by being humble enough to accept the sacrifice that Christ made at Calvary and accept Him as your Lord and Savior and then He puts the garment of righteousness in you and you begin to walk in His light.
John 8:12, He says, I am the light of the world, whoever walks with me will not walk in darkness, he shall have the light of life. Hallelujah. When you are made righteous by Christ, He puts the light of life inside of you and God looks at you and anytime God looks at you, God sees Christ His Son over you and then He accords to you right standing.
So the first thing that God looks at when He wants to bless, He doesn’t bless the unrighteous with His increase because the unrighteous use it for unrighteous purposes, so God must see us and see that we are righteous.
For example, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the three Hebrew boys in the book of Daniel 3, they were spiritually enlarged because these ones were uncompromising in their faith, in their belief in God, even when they faced death, they said it doesn’t matter.
They refused to tarnish their own, they refused to be poisoned by the king’s meat, they made up their mind before they got there that no matter the dainties of the king, they will not take it. They maintained their righteous even at great cost and God blessed them with spiritual enlargement and with that came other enlargements. Today, even as you purpose to be righteous before God, God will give you spiritual enlargement and will give you many other things in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Proverbs 4:18, it says, but the path of the just (that’s the righteous) is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Hallelujah. In other words, if you are righteous, you are just, your life will be like the sun. When the sun comes out early in the morning, as the day breaks, it begins to rise, it begins to shine more and more until it gets to the peak, when it just lights up, that’s the path of the righteous.
It says the path of the righteous is like a shining light, which shines brighter and brighter. So the righteous in God, our life is a journey of light, as we grow with Him, the light of God begins to shine on until God decides to take us home. May the light of God shine upon your life forever in the name of Jesus.
We have example also in the life of Joseph. Genesis 41, look at everything that Joseph went through, but because he was a righteous man, God found him righteous, God took him to a place that nobody in his family had ever reached, God took him beyond his ability, beyond qualification, beyond his background and God lifted him high. That will be your portion if you follow the example in the name of Jesus.
Number two, to make God look our way to provoke God’s increase, we must decide to be faithful stewards. God looks at faithful stewardship. 1 Corinthians 4:2 says for it is required of stewards that they be found faithful, we are stewards of God’s gifts and blessings. Every gift that God has given to us, every blessing we have is not for our own purpose, as we are sitting, we are like funnel.
You know when you have a funnel and you put oil in the funnel, the funnel is not the primary beneficiary, it’s supposed to be a vessel of God, it’s a steward, and as long as it remains open, it begins to flow to other people, it is performing its purpose, and even as it does that, it still enjoys the best because the first one that comes always stays there and then it goes, but the moment the final is blocked, that means it’s no longer a faithful steward, it will soon be discarded.
Many of us when God blesses us, we think, oh, it’s just for me and my family, we live in obscene opulence, we do things that make people -, but anything that God gives to you, it is primarily as a steward. You are steward of His resources, so when God wants to increase you, God looks at our hearts and says, can this one be my steward? Can I trust this one that what I’m going to give him, he will use for my purposes?
There are purposes for which God increases us, it’s not just for fun, God doesn’t do anything for fun, so if you want God to increase you, you must be a steward; God looks at our integrity before Him, our integrity matters before God. Many people when God puts us in position, oh opportunity to go and embezzle, what a nation needs, one man will carry it and put it in stomach, why won’t that stomach burst one day?
The whole budget of a state, you alone are carrying it and you think you won’t have constipation, so God wants to see us as faithful stewards, that’s why many are not blessed. When God blesses, how much can a man eat? How many cars can a man drive? How many houses do you want to live in? But you have a house in Nigeria, almost every state, every place in the world you have houses that you have never visited, you keep paying property tax you never go there. But because of greed, you think God has blessed you, truly, God may have blessed you, but you are abusing the blessing of God, God will not bless you, will not increase you so that you can show off or be greedy.
So it is only those who are faithful. Luke 16:11 says if therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? Ordinary things of this world – oh you are an accountant somewhere, you begin to steal it; oh you are MD somewhere, you begin to steal it; oh you are a director of government somewhere, you are a judge somewhere, you begin to steal, it says those are the unrighteous mammon of this world, who will commit to your hand the true riches? When God sees that you are not righteous, you are not a good steward of what man put in your hand, how can God commit His own true riches in your hands? It’s not possible. May the Lord help us in the name of Jesus.
God found Hannah to be a faithful steward. She said Lord, give me a son, I will give back to You; God saw her heart that this lady, she will train this child in the way of God, she fulfilled her vow and God gave her five more children.
Fulfilling your vow, God looks at the integrity of a man or woman before He blesses you. He can give you normal blessings, but the true riches of His kingdom are only given to those that God can trust; even His secret, there’s hardly any secret that God keeps, there are people that God reveals secrets to; He said I can trust my son, Abraham.
If the person that God trusts is in a far village, He will leave the general overseer of a church, He will leave the pastor of a church and go and look for one brother or one sister somewhere in the toilet cleaning that He can say I can trust this one. It’s not by position, it’s not by wealth, it’s by your integrity with God. I pray that God will find you worthy of His trust in the name of Jesus.
These are the things that we can do not to compel God, but to make God look at us and say, “Ah, what do you want? This is unusual, this is uncommon just as He looked at Solomon. May God find something uncommon in you today that will make you an attraction to Him in the name of Jesus.
Number three, God’s kingdom must be your priority. If we were just serving God because okay, that church is now a region in Lekki, if you go there, all kinds of big men are there, bank MDs, captains of industry, all kinds of people, you will see big cars, I will go to that church, I will go there, I will let them see me, you are going in the position of self, for what you are going to get, that’s why some people are in this church, I’m sorry.
If that’s why you are here, you are wasting your time, but today you can change your priority. Why are we serving God? The Bible says in Matthew 6:33, it says, seek ye first the kingdom…and all other – the addition are the increases. Seek ye first, make God your priority.
Jesus told Martha, He said take care, all this food you are doing – it’s good to give us food but your sister is doing the needful. Priority matters. Hallelujah! Your primary focus must be on the God of the increase not the increase itself, when you focus on the God of the increase, the increase will follow, but if you are focusing on increase, we are in church, it’s just for what we eat and what we will drink, He will give you what to eat and drink but He won’t give you more because He will say this one is just coming here to – look, like the multitude, He said give them bread and fish to eat, but let’s go to those who are serious.
When Jesus met with Peter, Peter was looking for fish, he gave his boat to Jesus, Luke 5: 1-7, but when Jesus gave him the amazing miracle of fishes, suddenly an epiphany hit Peter, he realized that this is not what I’m looking for, this is great. I want career progress, but there’s something much more, he abandoned it and followed Jesus, he left the fish and followed the One who created the fish.
Many of us today, we are pursuing the things that are small, whereas the person who gave it to us is there. God gives you a child, because of your child, when they ask why you’re not coming to church, you’ll say, daddy is your son, he doesn’t allow me to come to church, I don’t have the time; God gives you a job, God is now in trouble; He gave you a job you have been praying and fasting for, you are not going to church again, ‘Pastor, you know, this my job’, so you want God to take that job away from you? Don’t allow what God has given you to take God away from your hand.
Many are not being increased today because what He gave you is already taking you away from Him, so He says if I now give him more and I love him so much, the little I’ve given him, his legs are not steady anymore, what if I give him more, I won’t see his brake light anymore. God’s kingdom must be your priority. May it be your priority in the name of Jesus.
Number four, obedience to the word of God and divine instruction is a very important condition for God to look our way and bless us and increase us. Divine increase is based on the word of God, God won’t give anything that His word does not support.
If you don’t know the word of God, how can you stand up on the word of God? You just pray and fast empty without power. Prayer without the word of God is like carrying a gun without a bullet; the word of God is the key, is the foundation of God’s blessing and increase. The blessings of God and His increase are usually preceded by the word of God and divine instruction, either the instruction has been contained in the Bible already or God gives you an instruction.
So it’s when you obey the word of God, the instruction that increase follows. Genesis 12: 1 – 4, God gave Abraham an instruction, He said follow me and be thou made perfect; Malachi, particularly in the area of giving, many of us don’t like to talk about giving because you say they’ve started again, but listen, if you don’t obey God, you are limited.
Malachi 3: 10 – 12, it says if you don’t pay your tithe, you are a robber, you are a thief. Many will say tithe ke, no, don’t mind them, it’s old testament, it’s not new testament, what’s your business? If you give it to God, is it not God you’re giving it to? You say ah, they are stealing it, what’s your business? The man that steals it, is it not him and God, what’s your business, why don’t you obey God?
I have struggled, I can tell you with piety for many years but I suffered the consequences until I became convinced, I realized that all this argument is just noise making. You are searching the internet to see argument to convince you not to pay tithe, you want to convince yourself when the word of God is clear.
He says bring it to my house, whatever anybody does with it is not your business. He says in Luke 8, give, it shall be given unto you, why are you not giving? So many examples in the scriptures, obedience, that’s just in one area of giving, there are many other areas that God has given us instructions to obey Him, without obedience to the word of God, there can be no increase. The Bible says that obedience is better than sacrifice, you cannot expect God’s blessing when you live in disobedience.
The opposite of obedience is sin; obedience, if you look at the scripture, all those that God increased, they are people who manifested obedience – Abraham, look at Isaac, Isaac was going to Egypt in famine, God said don’t go to Egypt, stay here in Gerar, he stood there, it was famine, God said farm there, he stood there. People must have been laughing at him but he stood there.
There are some instructions of God that you want to obey, people will laugh at you, is either you want to fall for that and let that deceive you or you obey God. They laughed at him, they attacked him but he stood. Bible says in Genesis 6:12, in one year he had a hundredfold profit while all the people that pulled up the land were suffering.
There was famine, he dug and dug, others were digging there was no water, he dug, water was coming; he dug, they were blocking it and water was still coming until they got tired. The word of God is infallible, it never fails.
Many of us, where we are today is a demonstration of the level of our obedience. When some people say but how come, why is this one, are we not attending the same church? Check your level of obedience. You see some people are so highly placed and they are serving God with fervor, something should tell you there must be something these people are seeing.
This man who is supposed to sit at home, look at the way that he’s serving God with his position, everything, and you will say we can’t kill ourselves now; yes, God is not difficult but God promotes us by obedience, by faithfulness and He draws us near by our obedience.
Look at the widow of Zarephath, First Kings 17, she had only one bread, the last meal, but God told her through the prophet Elijah, he said this small thing that you have, I know it’s not much but go and make a meal for this, she did and God blessed her throughout this famine period.
No matter what the famine in the land is, if you’re an obedient child of God, you may not know how you are getting through, but God will pull you through in the name of Jesus.
Number five, diligence. The fact that God is the One that increases does not mean God will not – God has a procedure also, even though He breaks protocol, He has a procedure, He will not bless lazy hands, God does not bless indolent hands, He wants to find you doing something. Hallelujah.
Proverbs 22:29 says, seeth thou a man diligent in his business, he will stand before kings, not mean men; Many of us Christians are lazy, we pretend to be busy. When you’re supposed to be working, you say you are fasting or you are praying, you are not doing anything – empty hands. If God wants to bless them, what do you think He will bless? He will bless the emptiness more and more. He wants to see something on the table, don’t use church as excuse for laziness, there’s too much of it.
When God sees that you are diligent, you are working hard, then He will say this is the kind of person. Look at the Bible, all the people that God blessed are hard workers; look at Abraham, look at Isaac, look at all of them, they are hard workers. God loves those who work hard, God blesses hard work, not laziness.
Number six, you must have unshakable faith in God. You want God to increase you, unshakable faith. Look at the story of Jabez, Bible says in his own generation before him, nobody had been rich, in fact, they were so poor that they named him sorrow.
Nobody had any hope but this young man had faith in God that my own can be different. The family curse that has been there will not work on me, I have faith in God, my God will break it and I’ll begin a new generation of increase in my family. He said God have mercy on me, increase me, enlarge my coast, take away this evil from me.
God said yes, this is the kind of person I’ve been looking for all these years, nobody in this generation has had this kind of light. He saw the light, he caught the vision, he prayed the right prayer. When you pray the right prayer, you don’t need to pray for too long. The Lord answered him immediately because of his faith and his destiny changed. Today by your faith, your destiny will change for better in the name of Jesus.
Finally, we have to pray with expectation. Bible says in 1 Thessalonians 5:17, pray without ceasing; you must continue to pray without ceasing, continue to pray to God. Pray with the word of God, pray in righteousness, pray in obedience and then pray with expectation. You must have expectation, as God’s children we must have expectation, and the Bible says our expectation will not be cut off in the name of Jesus.
Let’s rise to our feet. The conclusion of the matter is that the greatest increase we can have is in our walk with God. When God increases us in our walk with Him, other things will follow, if you don’t know Christ, the greatest increase is your salvation.
If you are not saved, all these things we are saying is just – I’m sorry you are not part of it, all these conditions will only work if you have a relationship with God. If you are saved, you are in the kingdom already, these are kingdom principles for citizens of the kingdom.
So as all heads are bowed and all eyes are closed, begin to pray. Say Father, enlarge my coast today.
[Altar call]
Say Father, everything and anything working against my increase, this morning by Your mercy, deal with it in the name of Jesus. Whatever has been working against my increase in life in every way, spiritually, materially, Father, this morning, deal with it.
Say Father, from today, increase me daily until I see You in glory. Increase me daily in every area, increase me daily in my walk with You spiritually, materially, financially, in every area. Father increase me daily until I meet with You.
As you have prayed, so it shall be in the name of Jesus. Thank You precious Father, in Jesus name we prayed.
