JUICY JULY| DAY 29
THEME: BUT FOR THE SHOWERS WE PLEAD
TOPIC: ENJOYING 100-FOLD RESTORATION IN HIS MERCIES
TEXT: JOEL 2:25-26
BIBLE STUDY: ISAIAH 61
Wow… It’s the 29th day already and in just two days, the Juicy July will be over.
Praise God! Hallelujah!
Let’s quickly appreciate the name of the Lord for hitherto, He has helped us.
Worship and adore him sincerely.
Let the heavens feel your heartfelt worship.
Just be grateful to God for the past 28days till now.
Appreciate Him because, in two days, our testimony shall be bountiful.
For in Jesus Christ’s name, we have worshipped.
Amen.
Before we go into the topics in detail, does that mean it’s the 29th day already? Wooow!
And we are just a few hours closer to our promised land. Halllllellluuuuuyah!
Sisters, you are not relenting fah!
You are not giving up anytime soon!
You are squeezing all the juices!
You won’t leave any stone unturned.
If so, let’s quickly dive into our first song for today.
PASS ME NOT, O GENTLE SOUL
Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.
Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.
Thou the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me;
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee?
Pass me not, o gentle saviour!
Hear my humble cry!
When on others thou art calling, do not pass me by.
.
.
.
.
.
Welcome back, sisters.
Quickly tell the Lord not to pass you by today!
Tell Him to remember you just this one time again!
Just sincerely cry out your heart to Him to give you your testimony and showers
If at all you have not gotten just a single testimony so far, open up to the Lord, appreciating Him for having a lot in store for you. Ask Him to release Heaven over you!
He is a faithful father. He will hear and answer!
Perhaps you have not been calling him enough!
Or your testimony is taking time to cook because it is a special reservation that will shake the nations.
Cry to Him not to pass you by!
Ask him to remember you and hear your humble cry like Bartimaeus!
And He will answer!
For in Jesus’ mighty name, we have prayed. Amen.
We go into the scriptural verse for today.
Are you ready?
If you haven’t checked it so far, it’s time to read it with me slowly!
Let’s go…
JOEL 2: 25-26
25 ” And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.”
26 “And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.”
Glory! Hallelujah!
Don’t just rush through the two verses! Go read again for the Holy Spirit to communicate the mind of our Father to you!
Have you read it again?
What do you see, sisters?
Restoration!
Recovery!
Taking back!
Eating in plenty!
Satisfaction!
Wonders of God!
And finally, God says, “You shall NEVER be ashamed”.
And all these, we enjoy in 100-fold!
And all paid for by His mercies!
Hallelujah!
Do you believe?
That everything you’ve lost, you are recovering everything in one hundred places!
Everything that’s been stolen from your family is restored to you in one hundred places!
Ayaaaaaaaa!
Everything that’s been destroyed in your home and marriage, you are recovering in one hundred places!
Glory!
And this one hundredfold is not outside of the Bible!
We are tapping into the blessings of Isaac in Genesis 26:12-14
12. Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold because the LORD blessed him.
13. The man became rich, and his wealth continued to grow until he became very wealthy.
14. He had so many flocks and herds and servants that the Philistines envied him.
So, this is what we are tapping into today!
100-folds!
In 100 places, Lord!
I don’t care where it is going to come from but if You, oh Lord could do it for Isaac, you can do more for me!
What does the word ” Restoration” mean?
Restoration means “the process of bringing an object back to its original state; the process of restoring something.”
Ayayaaaa!
Kai!
Are you seeing something, sisters?
I see God bringing you and yours back to your glorious, original state!
That means the state or condition or situation of your life, marriage, marital status, children, family, work, business, or ministry at the moment has the ORIGINAL state it should be.
The devil, our enemy has done some wickedness to us. He has caused some havoc to us! He has made us to be living a counterfeit life spiritually, physically, maritally, ministerially, financially and in all other areas!
He has replaced God’s masterpiece, God’s original plan for us with a fake one.
This is not a fallacy. It is God’s Word, Let me show you:
Matthew 13:25-28 says:
25. But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.
26. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared.
27. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’
28. He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ …..
An enemy has done this?
Oh no!
God planted very good seeds and was expecting a very fruitful garden but when man was sleeping, when man was sinning, when man was careless; when man was carried away; when man was tired; when man trusted in himself….
The enemy of his father’s house, and his mother’s house, and his community, and the principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, and the spiritual wickedness in high places visited him and sowed tares into the wheat and went on their ways!
When it was time for the wheat to bring forth fruits, they really did bring forth fruits but the tares also grew alongside them!
Tares of wickedness!
Tares of pains and sicknesses!
Tares of poverty and perpetual lack!
Tares of regrets and failure!
Tares!
Tares!
Tares!
There are so many tares in many lives today, competing with the wheats of their lives!
It’s time for us to call on God for our restoration!
Enough is enough!
For how long will we keep pretending all is well when it is not?
Sisters, are you not tired of this ‘counterfeit’ or ‘camouflage’ living?
God is promising us a restoration to our “ORIGINAL” state today!
The original state that the Lord meant for our lives!
The Original state that the death of the Lord Jesus has wrought for us!
Say this with force and faith:
“I am going back to my ORIGINAL state today. No more dry ground, no more eating crumbs from the king’s table. I will eat in plenty.”
Repeat that as many times as possible!
Amen? Amen!
All these, we claim, not because of anything that we are worth but because of His mercies!
God’s mercies will show itself forth in our lives today as we pray and grant all our requests even before we start praying in the Mighty Name of Jesus!
Another definition of Restoration which I got was that Restoration means, “the return of a former monarchy or monarch to power, usually after having been forced to step down.”
Kai!
Sisters, are you seeing something?
Our King and Lord is saying, He is returning to His rightful position in your lives today!
Amen????
The King is coming back!
Into your marriage, He’s coming back!
Into your family, He’s coming back!
Into your health, He’s coming back!
Into your spiritual life, He’s coming back!
Into your finances, He’s coming back!
Into your business, He’s coming back!
Into your soul, He’s coming back!
Into every aspects of your life, He’s coming back!
Our sins had ejected Him out of power before but it’s time for him to return to power!
Say:
“Oh Lord!! I am so sorry for cooperating with the works of the Devil and ejecting you from my life knowingly and unknowingly. Lord, return into my life now honourably to take your rightful position in the Mighty Name of Jesus!’
Again, “Lord, your time is now. Come, rule and reign in every spheres of my life as my King in the Mighty Name of Jesus”
Say this with utmost authority and finality.
Let the devil know you are not here to joke.
Let him know your Father (God) is taking over the kingship and ownership of your life henceforth!
Let’s quickly take our second song for the day!
I WILL RESTORE BY PREYE ODEDE

This is the word of the Lord, your creator
I am the God who stood before the world was framed
I am the first, the last and everything between
I hold your future, who could know these things but me?
So, don’t fear, I will be the song
Sing, sing, oh barren land

Though you are empty, I am the well.
Draw from me, I will provide.
