Let us with a gladsome mind

Filled the new-made world with light :
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

His full hand supplies their need :
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

4 He His chosen race did bless
In the wasteful wilderness :

Ever faithful, ever sure.

Looked upon our misery :
For His mercies shall endure,

Praise the Lord, for He is kind ;

PROPHETIC WORD FOR 25 DEC 2022:
The spirit of wisdom shall rest upon you from today, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 3:13-20.

25/12/22MESSAGE:
Beloved, wisdom comes from God. In today’s Fire Scripture Daniel said, “And he changeth the times and the seasons; he removeth kings and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise and knowledge to them that know understanding” The Bible adds that the LORD gives wisdom and from His mouth come knowledge and understanding (Proverbs 2:6).

Also, God, the owner and giver of wisdom has promised to give it to those who ask. James 1:5 says, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him.” Similarly, the word of God says, “For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist (Luke 21:15).

Your knowledge of the fact that we serve a faithful God should drive you to pray, get wisdom from Him and enjoy its inestimable benefits.
The benefits of divine wisdom are unquantifiable. It is so precious and life-transforming that it should top the list of the rational things anyone should seek. That is why the Bible says that wisdom is the principal thing to get. Let us examine some of the benefits of divine wisdom.

First, wisdom delivers happiness to those who have and apply it. Proverbs 3:13-16 says, “Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left-hand riches and honour.”

Wherever you see unhappiness, there is lack of wisdom there. Whatever God’s word says, make sure that you do it. That will make you a wise person and you will be happy.
Wisdom also gives access to long life. Proverbs 3:16 say, “Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.” It gives riches and honour. It gives peace and confers grace and glory. Obedience to God’s word will give you wisdom.

The wiser you are, the more grace you will have. I enjoin you to get wisdom.

PRAYER POINTS:

TOPIC: DESTROYING THE HORSE AND THE RIDER

Scripture Reading:
Exodus 14:1-31

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

² Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.

³ For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.

⁴ And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. And they did so.

⁵ And it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?

⁶ And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:

⁷ And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.

⁸ And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with an high hand.

⁹ But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.

¹⁰ And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the LORD.

¹¹ And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?

¹² Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.

¹³ And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.

¹⁴ The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

¹⁵ And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:

¹⁶ But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

¹⁷ And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

¹⁸ And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

¹⁹ And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

²⁰ And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.

²¹ And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

²² And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

²³ And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

²⁴ And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the LORD looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians.

²⁵ And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

²⁶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

²⁷ And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

²⁸ And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

²⁹ But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

³⁰ Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.

³¹ And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses.

Confession:
Exodus 15:1
“`Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.“`

Hymn:

Saviour, Again To Thy Dear Name We Raise

1. Saviour, again to Thy dear Name we raise
With one accord
our parting hymn of praise;
We stand to bless Thee
ere our worship cease,
Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace.

2. Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way;
With Thee begun, with Thee shall end the day;
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon Thy name.

3. Grant us Thy peace, Lord, thro’ the coming night,
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.

4. Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.

– John Fullerton
